¹Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

¹"Ane rata nculii' -apa mpai' jadi' Magau', kajadia' hewa lolita rapa' toi: Hampulu' toronaa mopatuju hilou mpotomu topemua', hore-hore ngkeni hulu' -ra.

²And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

²Lima-ra to wojo, lima-ra to monoto nono-ra.

³They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

³Lima toronaa to wojo toera, ngkeni moto-ra hulu' -ra, aga uma-ra ngkeni lana.

⁴But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

⁴Lima toronaa to monoto nono-ra mpokeni hulu' -ra hante lana talaa-ra.

⁵While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

⁵Apa' mahae rahi karata topemua', tetunu' -ramo toronaa toera, ka'omea-na leta' omea-ramo.

⁶And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

⁶"Mentongo' bengi-mi, lako' ria-di tauna to mekio', ra'uli': `Etu-imi tumai topemua'! Mai-mokoi mpotomu-i.'

⁷Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

⁷Pemata-rami toronaa to hampulu' toera, hore-hore mporodo hulu' -ra.

⁸And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

⁸Toronaa to wojo mpo'uli' -raka ema' -ra to monoto nono-ra: `Bale, mai-kaiwo lana-ni hangkedi', neo' mate-mi-kaina hulu' -kai.'

⁹But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

⁹"Ratompoi' to monoto nono-ra toera: `Uma-kaiwo hono'! Hilou-mokoi ulu me'oli hi topobalu' lana.'

¹⁰And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

¹⁰Hilou-ramo-rawo toronaa to wojo toera mpo'oli lana. Lingku' -ra hilou, rata mpu'u-imi topemua'. Lima toronaa to monoto toera, apa' rodo ami' -mi-rana hulu' -ra, kaliliu mesua' -ramo dohe topemua' rala tomi posusaa', pai' wobo' ra'unca-mi.

¹¹Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

¹¹"Oti toe rata wo'o-ramo-rawo toronaa to wojo toera. Mekio' -ra ngkai mali-na, ra'uli': `Pue'! Pue'! Bea-kaka-kaiwo wobo'!'

¹²But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

¹²"Na'uli' topemua': `Uma-koi ku'incai.'"

¹³Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

¹³Napohudu Yesus lolita rapa' -na toe hewa toi: "Toe pai' kana mo'inga' -inga' -koi, apa' uma ni'incai nto'uma-a rata.

¹⁴For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

¹⁴"Ane rata nculii' -apa mpai' jadi' Magau', kajadi' -na hewa lolita rapa' tohe'i: Hadua maradika mopatuju hilou hi ngata to molaa. Kako'ia-na me'ongko', mpokio' -i pahawaa' -na napontonui doi-na, bona lingku' -na rapopodaga rapali' -ki donihi-na.

¹⁵And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

¹⁵Nawai' -ra hore-hore ntuku' pakulea' -ra. Hadua nawai' lima ncobu doi bulawa, to hadua roncobu, pai' to hadua wo'o hancobu. Pai' -i me'ongko' -mi.

¹⁶Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

¹⁶Pahawaa' to mporata lima ncobu doi bulawa toei, kaliliu napopodaga mpali' donihi-na, narata mpu'u-mi donihi-na lima ncobu wo'o.

¹⁷And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

¹⁷Wae wo'o pahawaa' to mporata roncobu, narata wo'o-hawo donihi-na roncobu.

¹⁸But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

¹⁸Aga pahawaa' to mporata hancobu-wadi, hilou-i mpokae tana' napontawui doi maradika-na.

¹⁹After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

¹⁹"Mahae ngkai ree, nculii' -imi maradika toei, pai' nakio' -ra pahawaa' -na, napongincai pompewili' -ra doi-na.

²⁰And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

²⁰Pahawaa' to mporata lima ncobu doi bulawa, tumai-i mpotonu hi maradika-na hampulu' ncobu, na'uli': `Maradika, to nutonu-ka wengi lima ncobu. Hilo, oi-mi ana' -na, lima ncobu wo'o.'

²¹His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

²¹"Na'uli' maradika-na: `Lompe' -mi! Nupopomako' lompe' pobago to kuwai' -koko. Wae-pi, apa' lawi' monoa' -ko hi to hangkedi', kusarumaka lau-moko hi to wori'. Mai-moko, mo'oha' hante aku', pai' goe' -moko hangkaa-ngkania hante aku'.'

²²He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

²²"Pahawaa' to mporata roncobu doi bulawa, rata wo'o-imi-hawo, na'uli': `Maradika, roncobu wengi to nuwai' -ka. Hilo, oi-mi ana' -na roncobu wo'o.'

²³His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

²³"Na'uli' maradika toei: `Lompe' -mi! Nupopomako' lompe' pobago to kuwai' -koko. Wae-pi, apa' lawi' monoa' -ko hi to hangkedi', kusarumaka lau-moko hi to wori'. Mai-moko, mo'oha' hante aku', pai' goe' -moko hangkaa-ngkania hante aku'.'

²⁴Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

²⁴"Oti toe, rata wo'o-imi-hawo pahawaa' to mporata hancobu, na'uli': `Maradika, ku'inca kaseke-nu. Nupepae to bela-kowo hinu'a-nu, nu'ala' to uma nukarokoi.

²⁵And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

²⁵Me'eka' -a, toe pai' hilou-a mpowuni doi-nu hi rala tana'. Jadi', ohe'i-mi doi-nu nculii'.'

²⁶His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

²⁶"Na'uli' -mi maradika toei: `Iko pahawaa' to dada'a pai' to lose! Ane nu'inca kampepae-ku to bela hinu'a-ku, ane nu'inca kampo'ala' -ku to uma kukarokoi,

²⁷Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

²⁷napa pai' uma nupopesua' lau doi-ku hi bank, bona ane rata-apa, kurua' nculii' hante ana' -na!'

²⁸Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

²⁸Na'uli' wo'o-mi maradika toei hi pahawaa' kahadua-na: `Ala' doi to hi hi'a, wai' -ki to ria-ki hampulu' ncobu.

²⁹For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

²⁹Apa' tauna to rasarumaka hante anu to rawai' -ki, rawai' tena-i-pidi bona kawoo-woria' -ki. Aga tauna to uma rasarumaka, anu hangkedi' to ria hi hi'a, ra'alai' lau-imi.

³⁰And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

³⁰Pai' pahawaa' to uma motuju tetui, petadi-imi hi mali-na hi kabengia-na. Hi ria-i ntora geo' pai' ntodohaka.'

³¹When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

³¹"Aku' Ana' Manusia', ane rata nculii' -apa mpai', mehini mpu'u-mi baraka' -ku, pai' radohei-a hawe'ea mala'eka-ku. Mohura-a mpai' moparenta hewa Magau' hi pohuraa to ncola.

³²And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

³²Hawe'ea manusia' morumpu hi nyanyoa-ku pai' kugaa' -ra jadi' rontuda, hewa hadua topo'ewu mpogaa' bima ngkai kebe'.

³³And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

³³Tauna to mpobabehi konoa Alata'ala kupahantuda hi mali ka'ana-ku, pai' tauna topesapuaka hi mali ki'ii-ku.

³⁴Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

³⁴"Pai' Aku' Magau', ku'uli' -raka to hi mali ka'ana-ku: `Mai-mokoi to nagane' Tuama-ku! Mesua' -mokoi hi rala Kamagaua' -ku, po'ohaa' -ni kuporodo ami' -mikokoi ngkai lomo' kajadi' dunia'.

³⁵For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

³⁵Apa' nto'u-ku mo'oro', niwai' -a pongkoni'. Ngkamara-a, niwai' -a ue ininu. Liu-a hi tomi-ni, nipopehani-a.

³⁶Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

³⁶Uma ria pohea-ku, niwai' -a pohea. Peda' -a, nikinomo-a. Hi rala tarungku' -a, nipencuai' -a.'

³⁷Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

³⁷"Metompoi' -ra to hi mali ka'ana-ku, ra'uli': `Pue', nto'uma-ko kihilo mo'oro' pai' kiwai' -ko koni', ba ngkamara pai' kiwai' -ko ue?

³⁸When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

³⁸Nto'uma-ko liu hi tomi-kai, pai' kipopehani-ko? Nto'uma-ko kihilo uma ria pohea-nu, pai' kiwai' -ko pohea?

³⁹Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

³⁹Nto'uma-ko kihilo peda' ba hi rala tarungku', pai' tilou-kai mpencuai' -ko?'

⁴⁰And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

⁴⁰"Pai' Aku' Magau', kutompoi' -ra: `Bona ni'inca: napa to nibabehi mpotulungi ompi' -ku tohe'ira lau, nau' hadua ompi' -ku to kedi' lia katuwu' -na, batua-na, hibalia nibabehi hi Aku' -mi.'

⁴¹Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

⁴¹"Oti toe mpai', ku'uli' -raka to hi mali ki'ii-ku: `Malai-mokoi ngkai rei, koi' to natotowi Tuama-ku! Mesua' -mokoi hi rala apu to jela' ncuu, to raporodo ami' -miki Magau' Anudaa' pai' mala'eka to mpotuku' -i.

⁴²For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

⁴²Apa' nto'u-ku mo'oro', uma-a niwai' koni'. Ngkamara-a, uma-a niwai' ue ininu.

⁴³I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

⁴³Liu-a hi tomi-ni, uma-a nipopehani. Uma ria pohea-ku, uma-a niwai' pohea. Peda' -a, hi rala tarungku' -a, uma-a nipencuai'.'

⁴⁴Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

⁴⁴"Ra'uli' wo'o-mi-rawo mpai' mpo'uli' -ka: `Pue', nto'uma-ko kihilo mo'oro' ba ngkamara ba hewa tauna toliu, ba uma-ko moheai, ba peda' ba ratarungku', pai' uma-ko kitulungi?'

⁴⁵Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

⁴⁵"Pai' Aku' Magau', kutompoi' -ra: `Bona ni'inca: apa' uma-koina nitulungi-ra tauna to kedi' tuwu' -ra tohe'i-era lau, batua-na, Aku' -mi to uma nitulungi tetu-e.'"

⁴⁶And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

⁴⁶Napohudu Yesus lolita-na, na'uli': "Hawe'ea tauna to dada'a toera lau ratadi hi rala naraka pai' rahuku' duu' kahae-hae-na, pai' tauna to monoa' mporata katuwua' to lompe' duu' kahae-hae-na."
