¹Siis on taevariik kümne neitsi sarnane, kes võtsid oma lambid ja läksid peigmehele vastu.

¹Then shall the kingdom of the heavens be made like to ten virgins that having taken their torches, went forth to meet the bridegroom.

²Viis nendest olid rumalad ja viis arukad,

²And five of them were prudent and five foolish.

³rumalad võtsid küll oma lambid, kuid ei võtnud kaasa õli,

³They that were foolish took their torches and did not take oil with them;

⁴arukad võtsid aga lampidele lisaks kaasa õlianumad.

⁴but the prudent took oil in their vessels with their torches.

⁵Aga kui peigmees viibis, jäid nad kõik tukkuma ja uinusid magama.

⁵Now the bridegroom tarrying, they all grew heavy and slept.

⁶Aga keskööl kostis hüüd: 'Ennäe, peigmees! Tulge välja teda vastu võtma!'

⁶But in [the] middle of [the] night there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom; go forth to meet him.

⁷Siis ärkasid kõik need neitsid ja seadsid korda oma lambid.

⁷Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their torches.

⁸Rumalad ütlesid arukatele: 'Andke meile osa oma õlist, sest meie lambid kustuvad!'

⁸And the foolish said to the prudent, Give us of your oil, for our torches are going out.

⁹Aga arukad vastasid: 'Ei mingil juhul, sellest ei jätku meile ja teile! Minge pigem kaupmeeste juurde ja ostke enestele!'

⁹But the prudent answered saying, [We cannot,] lest it might not suffice for us and for you. Go rather to those that sell, and buy for yourselves.

¹⁰Aga kui nad olid ostma läinud, tuli peigmees, ja kes olid valmis, läksid temaga pulma, ja uks lukustati.

¹⁰But as they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and the [ones that were] ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut.

¹¹Hiljem tulid ka need teised neitsid ja ütlesid: 'Isand, isand, ava meile!'

¹¹Afterwards come also the rest of the virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us;

¹²Aga tema vastas neile: 'Tõesti, ma ütlen teile, ma ei tunne teid.'

¹²but he answering said, Verily I say unto you, I do not know you.

¹³Valvake siis, sest te ei tea seda päeva ega tundi!

¹³Watch therefore, for ye know not the day nor the hour.

¹⁴Sest sellega on lugu just nagu mehega, kes enne võõrsile minemist kutsus oma sulased ja andis oma varanduse nende kätte.

¹⁴For [it is] as [if] a man going away out of a country called his own bondmen and delivered to them his substance.

¹⁵Ühele andis ta viis talenti, teisele kaks ja kolmandale ühe, igaühele tema suutlikkust mööda, ning läks ära võõrsile.

¹⁵And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to each according to his particular ability, and immediately went away out of the country.

¹⁶Kohe läks see, kes oli saanud viis talenti, ja kauples nendega ning sai teist viis.

¹⁶And he that had received the five talents went and trafficked with them, and made five other talents.

¹⁷Nõndasamuti ka kaks talenti saanu sai teist kaks juurde.

¹⁷In like manner also he that [had received] the two, [he also] gained two others.

¹⁸Aga kes oli saanud ühe, läks ja kaevas maasse augu ning peitis ära oma isanda raha.

¹⁸But he that had received the one went and dug in the earth, and hid the money of his lord.

¹⁹Pika aja pärast tuli nende sulaste isand koju ja nõudis neilt aru.

¹⁹And after a long time the lord of those bondmen comes and reckons with them.

²⁰Siis astus ta ette see, kes oli saanud viis talenti, lisas sellele teist viis talenti ja ütles: 'Isand, sa andsid mulle viis talenti, ennäe, ma olen saanud teist viis talenti!'

²⁰And he that had received the five talents came to [him] and brought five other talents, saying, [My] lord, thou deliveredst me five talents; behold, I have gained five other talents besides them.

²¹Ta isand lausus talle: 'Tubli, sa hea ja ustav sulane, sa oled olnud ustav pisku üle, ma panen su palju üle. Mine oma isanda rõõmupeole!'

²¹His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter into the joy of thy lord.

²²Ka kaks talenti saanu ütles ta ette astudes: 'Isand, sa andsid mulle kaks talenti, ennäe, ma olen saanud teist kaks talenti!'

²²And he also that had received the two talents came to [him] and said, [My] lord, thou deliveredst me two talents; behold, I have gained two other talents besides them.

²³Ta isand lausus talle: 'Tubli, sa hea ja ustav sulane, sa oled olnud ustav pisku üle, ma panen su palju üle. Mine oma isanda rõõmupeole!'

²³His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

²⁴Siis astus tema ette ka see, kes oli saanud ühe talendi, ja ütles: 'Isand, ma tean, et sa oled vali mees, sa lõikad sealt, kuhu sa ei ole külvanud, ja kogud sealt, kuhu sa ei ole puistanud.

²⁴And he also that had received the one talent coming to [him] said, [My] lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou hadst not sowed, and gathering from where thou hadst not scattered,

²⁵Ja ma kartsin, läksin ära ja peitsin sinu talendi maa sisse. Vaata, siin on sinu oma!'

²⁵and being afraid I went away and hid thy talent in the earth; behold, thou hast that which is thine.

²⁶Tema isand aga vastas talle: 'Sa halb ja laisk sulane! Sa teadsid, et ma lõikan sealt, kuhu ma ei ole külvanud, ja kogun sealt, kuhu ma ei ole puistanud.

²⁶And his lord answering said to him, Wicked and slothful bondman, thou knewest that I reap where I had not sowed, and gather from where I had not scattered;

²⁷Siis sa oleksid pidanud mu raha andma pankurite kätte, ja tulles ma oleksin saanud oma osa kätte vahekasuga.

²⁷thou oughtest then to have put my money to the money-changers, and when I came I should have got what is mine with interest.

²⁸Võtke nüüd tema käest talent ära ja andke sellele, kellel on kümme talenti!

²⁸Take therefore the talent from him, and give it to him that has the ten talents:

²⁹Sest igaühele, kellel on, antakse, ja tal on rohkem kui küllalt, kellel aga ei ole, selle käest võetakse ära seegi, mis tal on.

²⁹for to every one that has shall be given, and he shall be in abundance; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him.

³⁰Ja kõlbmatu sulane heitke välja kaugele pimedusse, seal on ulgumine ja hammaste kiristamine!'

³⁰And cast out the useless bondman into the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

³¹Aga kui Inimese Poeg tuleb oma kirkuses ja kõik inglid temaga, siis ta istub oma kirkuse troonile

³¹But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit down upon his throne of glory,

³²ja ta ette kogutakse kõik rahvad ja ta eraldab nad üksteisest, otsekui karjane eraldab lambad sikkudest.

³²and all the nations shall be gathered before him; and he shall separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;

³³Ja ta seab lambad oma paremale käele, sikud aga vasakule käele.

³³and he will set the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on [his] left.

³⁴Siis ütleb kuningas oma paremal käel olijatele: 'Tulge siia, minu Isa õnnistatud, pärige kuningriik, mis teile on valmistatud maailma rajamisest peale!

³⁴Then shall the King say to those on his right hand, Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from [the] world's foundation:

³⁵Sest mul oli nälg ja te andsite mulle süüa, mul oli janu ja te andsite mulle juua, ma olin kodutu ja te võtsite mu vastu,

³⁵for I hungered, and ye gave me to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in;

³⁶ma olin alasti ja te riietasite mind, ma olin haige ja te tulite mind vaatama, ma olin vangis ja te tulite mu juurde.'

³⁶naked, and ye clothed me; I was ill, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came to me.

³⁷Siis vastavad õiged talle: 'Issand, millal me nägime sind näljasena ja toitsime sind, või janusena ja jootsime sind?

³⁷Then shall the righteous answer him saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, and nourished thee; or thirsting, and gave thee to drink?

³⁸Millal me nägime sind kodutuna ja võtsime su vastu, või alasti ja riietasime sind?

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

³⁹Millal me nägime sind haigena või vangis ja tulime su juurde?'

³⁹and when saw we thee ill, or in prison, and came to thee?

⁴⁰Ja kuningas vastab neile: 'Tõesti, ma ütlen teile, mida te iganes olete teinud kellele tahes mu kõige pisematest vendadest, seda te olete teinud mulle.'

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

⁴¹Siis ta ütleb ka vasakul käel olijatele: 'Minge ära minu juurest, te äraneetud, igavesse tulle, mis on valmistatud kuradile ja tema inglitele!

⁴¹Then shall he say also to those on the left, Go from me, cursed, into eternal fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

⁴²Sest mul oli nälg ja te ei andnud mulle süüa, mul oli janu ja te ei andnud mulle juua,

⁴²for I hungered, and ye gave me not to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave me not to drink;

⁴³ma olin kodutu ja te ei võtnud mind vastu, ma olin alasti ja te ei riietanud mind, ma olin haige ja vangis ja te ei tulnud mind vaatama.'

⁴³I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye did not clothe me; ill, and in prison, and ye did not visit me.

⁴⁴Siis vastavad ka need: 'Issand, millal me nägime sind näljasena või janusena või kodutuna või alasti või haigena või vangis ja ei ole sind teeninud?'

⁴⁴Then shall *they* also answer saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, or thirsting, or a stranger, or naked, or ill, or in prison, and have not ministered to thee?

⁴⁵Siis ta vastab neile: 'Tõesti, ma ütlen teile, mida te iganes olete jätnud tegemata kellele tahes mu kõige pisematest vendadest, seda te olete jätnud tegemata minulegi.'

⁴⁵Then shall he answer them saying, Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have not done it to one of these least, neither have ye done it to me.

⁴⁶Ja need lähevad igavesse karistusse, õiged aga igavesse ellu.'

⁴⁶And these shall go away into eternal punishment, and the righteous into life eternal.
