Τότε ὁμοιωθήσεται ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν δέκα παρθένοις αἵτινες λαβοῦσαι τὰς λαμπάδας ἑαυτῶν ἐξῆλθον εἰς ὑπάντησιν τοῦ νυμφίου |
“At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. |
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. |
|
| 2 |
πέντε δὲ ἐξ αὐτῶν ἦσαν μωραὶ καὶ πέντε φρόνιμοι |
Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. |
And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish. |
|
| 3 |
αἱ γὰρ μωραὶ λαβοῦσαι τὰς λαμπάδας ‹αὐτῶν› οὐκ ἔλαβον μεθ’ ἑαυτῶν ἔλαιον |
The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take along any extra oil. |
They that [were] foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: |
|
| 4 |
αἱ δὲ φρόνιμοι ἔλαβον ἔλαιον ἐν τοῖς ἀγγείοις μετὰ τῶν λαμπάδων ἑαυτῶν |
But the wise ones took oil in flasks along with their lamps. |
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. |
|
| 5 |
χρονίζοντος δὲ τοῦ νυμφίου ἐνύσταξαν πᾶσαι καὶ ἐκάθευδον |
When the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and fell asleep. |
While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. |
|
| 6 |
Μέσης δὲ νυκτὸς κραυγὴ γέγονεν Ἰδοὺ ὁ νυμφίος ἐξέρχεσθε εἰς ἀπάντησιν ‹αὐτοῦ› |
At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him! |
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. |
|
| 7 |
Τότε ἠγέρθησαν πᾶσαι αἱ παρθένοι ἐκεῖναι καὶ ἐκόσμησαν τὰς λαμπάδας ἑαυτῶν |
Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. |
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. |
|
| 8 |
αἱ δὲ μωραὶ ταῖς φρονίμοις εἶπαν Δότε ἡμῖν ἐκ τοῦ ἐλαίου ὑμῶν ὅτι αἱ λαμπάδες ἡμῶν σβέννυνται |
The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out. |
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. |
|
| 9 |
Ἀπεκρίθησαν δὲ αἱ φρόνιμοι λέγουσαι Μή¦Ποτε οὐ μὴ ἀρκέσῃ ἡμῖν καὶ ὑμῖν πορεύεσθε μᾶλλον πρὸς τοὺς πωλοῦντας καὶ ἀγοράσατε ἑαυταῖς |
‘No, said the wise ones, ‘or there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves. |
But 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. |
|
| 10 |
Ἀπερχομένων δὲ αὐτῶν ἀγοράσαι ἦλθεν ὁ νυμφίος καὶ αἱ ἕτοιμοι εἰσῆλθον μετ’ αὐτοῦ εἰς τοὺς γάμους καὶ ἐκλείσθη ἡ θύρα |
But while they were on their way to buy it, the bridegroom arrived. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet, and the door was shut. |
And 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. |
|
| 11 |
Ὕστερον δὲ ἔρχονται καὶ αἱ λοιπαὶ παρθένοι λέγουσαι Κύριε κύριε ἄνοιξον ἡμῖν |
Later the other virgins arrived and said, ‘Lord, lord, open the door for us! |
Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. |
|
| 12 |
Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν οὐκ οἶδα ὑμᾶς |
But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you. |
But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. |
|
| 13 |
Γρηγορεῖτε οὖν ὅτι οὐκ οἴδατε τὴν ἡμέραν οὐδὲ τὴν ὥραν ⧼ἐν ᾗ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεται⧽ |
Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour. |
Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. |
|
| 14 |
Ὥσπερ γὰρ ἄνθρωπος ἀποδημῶν ἐκάλεσεν τοὺς ἰδίους δούλους καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοῖς τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ |
For it is just like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted them with his possessions. |
For [the kingdom of heaven is] as a man travelling into a far country, [who] called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. |
|
| 15 |
καὶ ᾧ μὲν ἔδωκεν πέντε τάλαντα ᾧ δὲ δύο ᾧ δὲ ἕν ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὴν ἰδίαν δύναμιν καὶ ἀπεδήμησεν Εὐθέως |
To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent— each according to his own ability. And he went on his journey. |
And 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. |
|
| 16 |
Πορευθεὶς ὁ τὰ πέντε τάλαντα λαβὼν ἠργάσατο ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐκέρδησεν ἄλλα πέντε |
The servant who had received the five talents went at once and put them to work and gained five more. |
Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made [them] other five talents. |
|
| 17 |
ὡσαύτως ὁ τὰ δύο ἐκέρδησεν ἄλλα δύο |
Likewise, the one with the two talents gained two more. |
And likewise he that [had received] two, he also gained other two. |
|
| 18 |
ὁ δὲ τὸ ἓν λαβὼν ἀπελθὼν ὤρυξεν γῆν καὶ ἔκρυψεν τὸ ἀργύριον τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ |
But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money. |
But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. |
|
| 19 |
Μετὰ δὲ πολὺν χρόνον ἔρχεται ὁ κύριος τῶν δούλων ἐκείνων καὶ συναίρει λόγον μετ’ αὐτῶν |
After a long time the master of those servants returned to settle accounts with them. |
After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. |
|
| 20 |
καὶ προσελθὼν ὁ τὰ πέντε τάλαντα λαβὼν προσήνεγκεν ἄλλα πέντε τάλαντα λέγων Κύριε πέντε τάλαντά μοι παρέδωκας ἴδε ἄλλα πέντε τάλαντα ἐκέρδησα |
The servant who had received the five talents came and presented five more. ‘Master, he said, ‘you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more. |
And 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. |
|
| 21 |
Ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ Εὖ δοῦλε ἀγαθὲ καὶ πιστέ ἐπὶ ὀλίγα ἦς πιστός ἐπὶ πολλῶν σε καταστήσω εἴσελθε εἰς τὴν χαρὰν τοῦ κυρίου σου |
His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master! |
<1161> His 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. |
|
| 22 |
Προσελθὼν ‹δὲ› καὶ ὁ τὰ δύο τάλαντα εἶπεν Κύριε δύο τάλαντά μοι παρέδωκας ἴδε ἄλλα δύο τάλαντα ἐκέρδησα |
The servant who had received the two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more. |
<1161> He 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. |
|
| 23 |
Ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ Εὖ δοῦλε ἀγαθὲ καὶ πιστέ ἐπὶ ὀλίγα ἦς πιστός ἐπὶ πολλῶν σε καταστήσω εἴσελθε εἰς τὴν χαρὰν τοῦ κυρίου σου |
His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master! |
His 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. |
|
| 24 |
Προσελθὼν δὲ καὶ ὁ τὸ ἓν τάλαντον εἰληφὼς εἶπεν Κύριε ἔγνων σε ὅτι σκληρὸς εἶ ἄνθρωπος θερίζων ὅπου οὐκ ἔσπειρας καὶ συνάγων ὅθεν οὐ διεσκόρπισας |
Finally, the servant who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. |
Then 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: |
|
| 25 |
καὶ φοβηθεὶς ἀπελθὼν ἔκρυψα τὸ τάλαντόν σου ἐν τῇ γῇ ἴδε ἔχεις τὸ σόν |
So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what belongs to you. |
And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, [there] thou hast [that is] thine. |
|
| 26 |
Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Πονηρὲ δοῦλε καὶ ὀκνηρέ ᾔδεις ὅτι θερίζω ὅπου οὐκ ἔσπειρα καὶ συνάγω ὅθεν οὐ διεσκόρπισα |
‘You wicked, lazy servant! replied his master. ‘You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed. |
<1161> His 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: |
|
| 27 |
ἔδει σε οὖν βαλεῖν τὰ ἀργύριά μου τοῖς τραπεζίταις καὶ ἐλθὼν ἐγὼ ἐκομισάμην ἂν τὸ ἐμὸν σὺν τόκῳ |
Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have received it back with interest. |
Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and [then] at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. |
|
| 28 |
Ἄρατε οὖν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ τὸ τάλαντον καὶ δότε τῷ ἔχοντι τὰ δέκα τάλαντα |
Therefore take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents. |
Take therefore the talent from him, and give [it] unto him which hath ten talents. |
|
| 29 |
τῷ γὰρ ἔχοντι παντὶ δοθήσεται καὶ περισσευθήσεται τοῦ δὲ μὴ ἔχοντος καὶ ὃ ἔχει ἀρθήσεται ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ |
For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. |
For 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. |
|
| 30 |
καὶ τὸν ἀχρεῖον δοῦλον ἐκβάλετε εἰς τὸ σκότος τὸ ἐξώτερον ἐκεῖ ἔσται ὁ κλαυθμὸς καὶ ὁ βρυγμὸς τῶν ὀδόντων |
And throw that worthless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. |
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. |
|
| 31 |
Ὅταν δὲ ἔλθῃ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐν τῇ δόξῃ αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄγγελοι μετ’ αὐτοῦ τότε καθίσει ἐπὶ θρόνου δόξης αὐτοῦ |
When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, He will sit on His glorious throne. |
When 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: |
|
| 32 |
καὶ συναχθήσονται ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη καὶ ἀφορίσει αὐτοὺς ἀπ’ ἀλλήλων ὥσπερ ὁ ποιμὴν ἀφορίζει τὰ πρόβατα ἀπὸ τῶν ἐρίφων |
All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate the people one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. |
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats: |
|
| 33 |
καὶ στήσει τὰ μὲν πρόβατα ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ τὰ δὲ ἐρίφια ἐξ εὐωνύμων |
He will place the sheep on His right and the goats on His left. |
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. |
|
| 34 |
Τότε ἐρεῖ ὁ Βασιλεὺς τοῖς ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ Δεῦτε οἱ εὐλογημένοι τοῦ Πατρός μου κληρονομήσατε τὴν ἡτοιμασμένην ὑμῖν βασιλείαν ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου |
Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. |
Then 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: |
|
| 35 |
ἐπείνασα γὰρ καὶ ἐδώκατέ μοι φαγεῖν ἐδίψησα καὶ ἐποτίσατέ με ξένος ἤμην καὶ συνηγάγετέ με |
For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you took Me in, |
For 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: |
|
| 36 |
γυμνὸς καὶ περιεβάλετέ με ἠσθένησα καὶ ἐπεσκέψασθέ με ἐν φυλακῇ ἤμην καὶ ἤλθατε πρός με |
I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you looked after Me, I was in prison and you visited Me. |
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. |
|
| 37 |
Τότε ἀποκριθήσονται αὐτῷ οἱ δίκαιοι λέγοντες Κύριε πότε σε εἴδομεν πεινῶντα καὶ ἐθρέψαμεν ἢ διψῶντα καὶ ἐποτίσαμεν |
Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You something to drink? |
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed [thee]? or thirsty, and gave [thee] drink? |
|
| 38 |
πότε δέ σε εἴδομεν ξένον καὶ συνηγάγομεν ἢ γυμνὸν καὶ περιεβάλομεν |
When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? |
<1161> When saw we thee a stranger, and took [thee] in? or naked, and clothed [thee]? |
|
| 39 |
πότε δέ σε εἴδομεν ἀσθενοῦντα ἢ ἐν φυλακῇ καὶ ἤλθομεν πρός σε |
When did we see You sick or in prison and visit You? |
<1161> Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? |
|
| 40 |
Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Βασιλεὺς ἐρεῖ αὐτοῖς Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ἐφ’ ὅσον ἐποιήσατε ἑνὶ τούτων τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου τῶν ἐλαχίστων ἐμοὶ ἐποιήσατε |
And the King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me. |
And 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. |
|
| 41 |
Τότε ἐρεῖ καὶ τοῖς ἐξ εὐωνύμων Πορεύεσθε ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ ‹οἱ› κατηραμένοι εἰς τὸ πῦρ τὸ αἰώνιον τὸ ἡτοιμασμένον τῷ διαβόλῳ καὶ τοῖς ἀγγέλοις αὐτοῦ |
Then He will say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. |
Then 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: |
|
| 42 |
ἐπείνασα γὰρ καὶ οὐκ ἐδώκατέ μοι φαγεῖν (καὶ) ἐδίψησα καὶ οὐκ ἐποτίσατέ με |
For I was hungry and you gave Me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me nothing to drink, |
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: |
|
| 43 |
ξένος ἤμην καὶ οὐ συνηγάγετέ με γυμνὸς καὶ οὐ περιεβάλετέ με ἀσθενὴς καὶ ἐν φυλακῇ καὶ οὐκ ἐπεσκέψασθέ με |
I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, I was naked and you did not clothe Me, I was sick and in prison and you did not visit Me. |
I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. |
|
| 44 |
Τότε ἀποκριθήσονται καὶ αὐτοὶ λέγοντες Κύριε πότε σε εἴδομεν πεινῶντα ἢ διψῶντα ἢ ξένον ἢ γυμνὸν ἢ ἀσθενῆ ἢ ἐν φυλακῇ καὶ οὐ διηκονήσαμέν σοι |
And they too will reply, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You? |
Then 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? |
|
| 45 |
Τότε ἀποκριθήσεται αὐτοῖς λέγων Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ἐφ’ ὅσον οὐκ ἐποιήσατε ἑνὶ τούτων τῶν ἐλαχίστων οὐδὲ ἐμοὶ ἐποιήσατε |
Then the King will answer, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for Me. |
Then 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. |
|
| 46 |
Καὶ ἀπελεύσονται οὗτοι εἰς κόλασιν αἰώνιον οἱ δὲ δίκαιοι εἰς ζωὴν αἰώνιον |
And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life. |
And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. |
