1. "Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom.
|
1. Then G5119 shall the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 be likened unto G3666 ten G1176 virgins G3933 , which G3748 took G2983 their G848 lamps G2985 , and went forth G1831 to meet G1519 G529 the G3588 bridegroom G3566 .
|
2. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
|
2. And G1161 five G4002 of G1537 them G846 were G2258 wise G5429 , and G2532 five G4002 were foolish G3474 .
|
3. Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,
|
3. They that G3748 were foolish G3474 took G2983 their G1438 lamps G2985 , and took G2983 no G3756 oil G1637 with G3326 them G1438 :
|
4. but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
|
4. But G1161 the G3588 wise G5429 took G2983 oil G1637 in G1722 their G848 vessels G30 with G3326 their G848 lamps G2985 .
|
5. Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
|
5. While G1161 the G3588 bridegroom G3566 tarried G5549 , they all G3956 slumbered G3573 and G2532 slept G2518 .
|
6. But at midnight there was a cry, 'Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!'
|
6. And G1161 at midnight G3319 G3571 there was a cry G2906 made G1096 , Behold G2400 , the G3588 bridegroom G3566 cometh G2064 ; go ye out G1831 to meet G1519 G529 him G846 .
|
7. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
|
7. Then G5119 all G3956 those G1565 virgins G3933 arose G1453 , and G2532 trimmed G2885 their G848 lamps G2985 .
|
8. The foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'
|
8. And G1161 the G3588 foolish G3474 said G2036 unto the G3588 wise G5429 , Give G1325 us G2254 of G1537 your G5216 oil G1637 ; for G3754 our G2257 lamps G2985 are gone out G4570 .
|
9. But the wise answered, saying, 'What if there isn't enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.'
|
9. But G1161 the G3588 wise G5429 answered G611 , saying G3004 , Not so ; lest G3379 there be not enough G714 G3756 for us G2254 and G2532 you G5213 : but G1161 go G4198 ye rather G3123 to G4314 them that sell G4453 , and G2532 buy G59 for yourselves G1438 .
|
10. While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.
|
10. And G1161 while they G846 went G565 to buy G59 , the G3588 bridegroom G3566 came G2064 ; and G2532 they that were ready G2092 went in G1525 with G3326 him G846 to G1519 the G3588 marriage G1062 : and G2532 the G3588 door G2374 was shut G2808 .
|
11. Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us.'
|
11. G1161 Afterward G5305 came G2064 also G2532 the G3588 other G3062 virgins G3933 , saying G3004 , Lord G2962 , Lord G2962 , open G455 to us G2254 .
|
12. But he answered, 'Most assuredly I tell you, I don't know you.'
|
12. But G1161 he G3588 answered G611 and said G2036 , Verily G281 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , I know G1492 you G5209 not G3756 .
|
13. Watch therefore, for you don't know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
|
13. Watch G1127 therefore G3767 , for G3754 ye know G1492 neither G3756 the G3588 day G2250 nor G3761 the G3588 hour G5610 wherein G1722 G3739 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 cometh G2064 .
|
14. "For it is like a man, going into another country, who called his own servants, and entrusted his goods to them.
|
14. For G1063 the kingdom of heaven is as G5618 a man G444 traveling into a far country G589 , who called G2564 his own G2398 servants G1401 , and G2532 delivered G3860 unto them G846 his G848 goods G5224 .
|
15. To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.
|
15. And G2532 unto one G3739 G3303 he gave G1325 five G4002 talents G5007 , to G1161 another G3739 two G1417 , and G1161 to another G3739 one G1520 ; to every man G1538 according G2596 to his several G2398 ability G1411 ; and G2532 straightway G2112 took his journey G589 .
|
16. Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.
|
16. Then G1161 he that had received G2983 the G3588 five G4002 talents G5007 went G4198 and G2532 traded G2038 with G1722 the same G846 , and G2532 made G4160 them other G243 five G4002 talents G5007 .
|
17. In like manner he also who got the two gained another two.
|
17. And G2532 likewise G5615 he G3588 that had received two G1417 , he G846 also G2532 gained G2770 other G243 two G1417 .
|
18. But he who received the one went away and dug in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
|
18. But G1161 he that had received G2983 one G1520 went G565 and digged G3736 in G1722 the G3588 earth G1093 , and G2532 hid G613 his G848 lord G2962 's money G694 .
|
19. "Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reconciled accounts with them.
|
19. G1161 After G3326 a long G4183 time G5550 the G3588 lord G2962 of those G1565 servants G1401 cometh G2064 , and G2532 reckoneth G4868 G3056 with G3326 them G846 .
|
20. He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents besides them.'
|
20. And G2532 so he that had received G2983 five G3588 G4002 talents G5007 came G4334 and brought G4374 other G243 five G4002 talents G5007 , saying G3004 , Lord G2962 , thou deliveredst G3860 unto me G3427 five G4002 talents G5007 : behold G2396 , I have gained G2770 beside G1909 them G846 five G4002 talents G5007 more G243 .
|
21. "His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
|
21. G1161 His G846 lord G2962 said G5346 unto him G846 , Well done G2095 , thou good G18 and G2532 faithful G4103 servant G1401 : thou hast been G2258 faithful G4103 over G1909 a few things G3641 , I will make thee ruler G2525 G4571 over G1909 many things G4183 : enter G1525 thou into G1519 the G3588 joy G5479 of thy G4675 lord G2962 .
|
22. "He also who got the two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents besides them.'
|
22. G1161 He also that had received G2983 G2532 two G1417 talents G5007 came G4334 and said G2036 , Lord G2962 , thou deliveredst G3860 unto me G3427 two G1417 talents G5007 : behold G2396 , I have gained G2770 two G1417 other G243 talents G5007 beside G1909 them G846 .
|
23. "His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
|
23. His G846 lord G2962 said G5346 unto him G846 , Well done G2095 , good G18 and G2532 faithful G4103 servant G1401 ; thou hast been G2258 faithful G4103 over G1909 a few things G3641 , I will make thee ruler G2525 G4571 over G1909 many things G4183 : enter G1525 thou into G1519 the G3588 joy G5479 of thy G4675 lord G2962 .
|
24. "He also who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.
|
24. Then G1161 he which had received G2983 the G3588 one G1520 talent G5007 came G2532 G4334 and said G2036 , Lord G2962 , I knew G1097 thee G4571 that G3754 thou art G1488 a hard G4642 man G444 , reaping G2325 where G3699 thou hast not G3756 sown G4687 , and G2532 gathering G4863 where G3606 thou hast not G3756 strewed G1287 :
|
25. I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.'
|
25. And G2532 I was afraid G5399 , and went G565 and hid G2928 thy G4675 talent G5007 in G1722 the G3588 earth G1093 : lo G2396 , there thou hast G2192 that is thine G4674 .
|
26. "But his lord answered him, 'You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn't sow, and gather where I didn't scatter.
|
26. G1161 His G846 lord G2962 answered G611 and said G2036 unto him G846 , Thou wicked G4190 and G2532 slothful G3636 servant G1401 , thou knewest G1492 that G3754 I reap G2325 where G3699 I sowed G4687 not G3756 , and G2532 gather G4863 where G3606 I have not G3756 strewed G1287 :
|
27. You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.
|
27. Thou G4571 oughtest G1163 therefore G3767 to have put G906 my G3450 money G694 to the G3588 exchangers G5133 , and G2532 then at my coming G2064 I G1473 should have received G2865 G302 mine own G1699 with G4862 usury G5110 .
|
28. Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents.
|
28. Take G142 therefore G3767 the G3588 talent G5007 from G575 him G846 , and G2532 give G1325 it unto him which hath G2192 ten G1176 talents G5007 .
|
29. For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who has not, even that which he has will be taken away.
|
29. For G1063 unto everyone G3956 that hath G2192 shall be given G1325 , and G2532 he shall have abundance G4052 : but G1161 from G575 him G3588 that hath G2192 not G3361 shall be taken away G142 even G575 G846 G2532 that which G3739 he hath G2192 .
|
30. Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
|
30. And G2532 cast G1544 ye the G3588 unprofitable G888 servant G1401 into G1519 outer G1857 darkness G4655 : there G1563 shall be G2071 weeping G2805 and G2532 gnashing G1030 of teeth G3599 .
|
31. "But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.
|
31. When G3752 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 shall come G2064 in G1722 his G848 glory G1391 , and G2532 all G3956 the G3588 holy G40 angels G32 with G3326 him G846 , then G5119 shall he sit G2523 upon G1909 the throne G2362 of his G848 glory G1391 :
|
32. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
|
32. And G2532 before G1715 him G846 shall be gathered G4863 all G3956 nations G1484 : and G2532 he shall separate G873 them G846 one from another G240 G575 , as G5618 a shepherd G4166 divideth G873 his sheep G4263 from G575 the G3588 goats G2056 :
|
33. He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
|
33. And G2532 he shall set G2476 the G3588 sheep G4263 on G1537 his G848 right hand G1188 , but G1161 the G3588 goats G2055 on G1537 the left G2176 .
|
34. Then the King will tell those on his right hand, 'Come , blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;
|
34. Then G5119 shall the G3588 King G935 say G2046 unto them G3588 on G1537 his G848 right hand G1188 , Come G1205 , ye blessed G2127 of my G3450 Father G3962 , inherit G2816 the G3588 kingdom G932 prepared G2090 for you G5213 from G575 the foundation G2602 of the world G2889 :
|
35. for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in;
|
35. For G1063 I was hungry G3983 , and G2532 ye gave G1325 me G3427 meat G5315 : I was thirsty G1372 , and G2532 ye gave me drink G4222 G3165 : I was G2252 a stranger G3581 , and G2532 ye took me in G4863 G3165 :
|
36. naked, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me.'
|
36. Naked G1131 , and G2532 ye clothed G4016 me G3165 : I was sick G770 , and G2532 ye visited G1980 me G3165 : I was G2252 in G1722 prison G5438 , and G2532 ye came G2064 unto G4314 me G3165 .
|
37. "Then the righteous will answer him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you; or thirsty, and give you a drink?
|
37. Then G5119 shall the G3588 righteous G1342 answer G611 him G846 , saying G3004 , Lord G2962 , when G4219 saw G1492 we thee G4571 hungry G3983 , and G2532 fed G5142 thee ? or G2228 thirsty G1372 , and G2532 gave thee G4222 drink?
|
38. When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you?
|
38. G1161 When G4219 saw G1492 we thee G4571 a stranger G3581 , and G2532 took thee G4863 in? or G2228 naked G1131 , and G2532 clothed G4016 thee ?
|
39. When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?'
|
39. Or G1161 when G4219 saw G1492 we thee G4571 sick G772 , or G2228 in G1722 prison G5438 , and G2532 came G2064 unto G4314 thee G4571 ?
|
40. "The King will answer them, 'Most assuredly I tell you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.'
|
40. And G2532 the G3588 King G935 shall answer G611 and say G2046 unto them G846 , Verily G281 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , Inasmuch as G1909 G3745 ye have done G4160 it unto one G1520 of the G3588 least G1646 of these G5130 my G3450 brethren G80 , ye have done G4160 it unto me G1698 .
|
41. Then he will say also to those on the left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels;
|
41. Then G5119 shall he say G2046 also G2532 unto them G3588 on G1537 the left hand G2176 , Depart G4198 from G575 me G1700 , ye cursed G2672 , into G1519 everlasting G166 fire G4442 , prepared G2090 for the G3588 devil G1228 and G2532 his G846 angels G32 :
|
42. for I was hungry, and you didn't give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;
|
42. For G1063 I was hungry G3983 , and G2532 ye gave G1325 me G3427 no G3756 meat G5315 : I was thirsty G1372 , and G2532 ye gave me no drink G4222 G3165 :
|
43. I was a stranger, and you didn't take me in; naked, and you didn't clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn't visit me.'
|
43. I was G2252 a stranger G3581 , and G2532 ye took me not in G4863 G3165 G3756 : naked G1131 , and G2532 ye clothed G4016 me G3165 not G3756 : sick G772 , and G2532 in G1722 prison G5438 , and G2532 ye visited G1980 me G3165 not G3756 .
|
44. "Then they will also answer, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn't help you?'
|
44. Then G5119 shall they G846 also G2532 answer G611 him G846 , saying G3004 , Lord G2962 , when G4219 saw G1492 we thee G4571 hungry G3983 , or G2228 athirst G1372 , or G2228 a stranger G3581 , or G2228 naked G1131 , or G2228 sick G772 , or G2228 in G1722 prison G5438 , and G2532 did not G3756 minister G1247 unto thee G4671 ?
|
45. "Then he will answer them, saying, 'Most assuredly I tell you, inasmuch as you didn't do it to one of the least of these, you didn't do it to me.'
|
45. Then G5119 shall he answer G611 them G846 , saying G3004 , Verily G281 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , Inasmuch as G1909 G3745 ye did G4160 it not G3756 to one G1520 of the G3588 least G1646 of these G5130 , ye did G4160 it not G3761 to me G1698 .
|
46. These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
|
46. And G2532 these G3778 shall go away G565 into G1519 everlasting G166 punishment G2851 : but G1161 the G3588 righteous G1342 into G1519 life G2222 eternal G166 .
