마태복음 25

1그 때에 천국은 마치 등을 들고 신랑을 맞으러 나간 열 처녀와 같다 하리니 2그 중에 다섯은 미련하고 다섯은 슬기 있는지라 3미련한 자들은 등을 가지되 기름을 가지지 아니하고 4슬기 있는 자들은 그릇에 기름을 담아 등과 함께 가져갔더니 5신랑이 더디 오므로 다 졸며 잘새 6밤 중에 소리가 나되 보라 신랑이로다 맞으러 나오라 하매 7이에 그 처녀들이 다 일어나 등을 준비할 새 8미련한 자들이 슬기 있는 자들에게 이르되 우리 등불이 꺼져가니 너희 기름을 좀 나눠 달라 하거늘 9슬기 있는 자들이 대답하여 가로되 우리와 너희의 쓰기에 다 부족할까 하노니 차라리 파는 자들에게 가서 너희 쓸 것을 사라 하니 10저희가 사러 간 동안에 신랑이 오므로 예비하였던 자들은 함께 혼인 잔치에 들어가고 문은 닫힌지라 11그 후에 남은 처녀들이 와서 가로되 주여 주여 우리에게 열어 주소서 12대답하여 가로되 진실로 너희에게 이르노니 내가 너희를 알지 못하노라 하였느니라 13그런즉 깨어 있으라 너희는 그 날과 그 시를 알지 못하느니라 14또 어떤 사람이 타국에 갈제 그 종들을 불러 자기 소유를 맡김과 같으니 15각각 그 재능대로 하나에게는 금 다섯 달란트를, 하나에게는 두 달란트를, 하나에게는 한 달란트를 주고 떠났더니 16다섯 달란트 받은 자는 바로 가서 그것으로 장사하여 또 다섯 달란트를 남기고 17두 달란트를 받은 자도 그같이 하여 또 두 달란트를 남겼으되 18한 달란트 받은 자는 가서 땅을 파고 그 주인의 돈을 감추어 두었더니 19오랜 후에 그 종들의 주인이 돌아와 저희와 회계할새 20다섯 달란트 받았던 자는 다섯 달란트를 더 가지고 와서 가로되 주여 내게 다섯 달란트를 주셨는데 보소서 내가 또 다섯 달란트를 남겼나이다 21그 주인이 이르되 잘 하였도다 착하고 충성된 종아 네가 작은 일에 충성하였으매 내가 많은 것으로 네게 맡기리니 네 주인의 즐거움에 참예할지어다 하고 22두 달란트 받았던 자도 와서 가로되 주여 내게 두 달란트를 주셨는데 보소서 내가 또 두 달란트를 남겼나이다 23그 주인이 이르되 잘 하였도다 착하고 충성된 종아 네가 작은 일에 충성하였으매 내가 많은 것으로 네게 맡기리니 네 주인의 즐거움에 참예할지어다 하고 24한 달란트 받았던 자도 와서 가로되 주여 당신은 굳은 사람이라 심지 않은 데서 거두고 헤치지 않은 데서 모으는 줄을 내가 알았으므로 25두려워하여 나가서 당신의 달란트를 땅에 감추어 두었나이다 보소서 당신의 것을 받으셨나이다 26그 주인이 대답하여 가로되 악하고 게으른 종아 나는 심지 않은 데서 거두고 헤치지 않은 데서 모으는 줄로 네가 알았느냐 27그러면 네가 마땅히 내 돈을 취리하는 자들에게나 두었다가 나로 돌아와서 내 본전과 변리를 받게 할 것이니라 하고 28그에게서 그 한 달란트를 빼앗아 열 달란트를 가진 자에게 주어라 29무릇 있는 자는 받아 풍족하게 되고 없는 자는 그 있는 것까지 빼앗기리라 30이 무익한 종을 바깥 어두운 데로 내어 쫓으라 거기서 슬피 울며 이를 갊이 있으리라 하니라 31인자가 자기 영광으로 모든 천사와 함께 올 때에 자기 영광의 보좌에 앉으리니 32모든 민족을 그 앞에 모으고 각각 분별하기를 목자가 양과 염소를 분별하는 것 같이 하여 33양은 그 오른편에 염소는 왼편에 두리라 34그 때에 임금이 그 오른편에 있는 자들에게 이르시되 내 아버지께 복받을 자들이여 나아와 창세로부터 너희를 위하여 예비된 나라를 상속하라 35내가 주릴 때에 너희가 먹을 것을 주었고 목마를 때에 마시게 하였고 나그네 되었을 때에 영접하였고 36벗었을 때에 옷을 입혔고 병들었을 때에 돌아 보았고 옥에 갇혔을 때에 와서 보았느니라 37이에 의인들이 대답하여 가로되 주여 우리가 어느 때에 주의 주리신 것을 보고 공궤하였으며 목마르신 것을 보고 마시게 하였나이까 38어느 때에 나그네 되신 것을 보고 영접하였으며 벗으신 것을 보고 옷 입혔나이까 39어느 때에 병드신 것이나 옥에 갇히신 것을 보고 가서 뵈었나이까 하리니 40임금이 대답하여 가라사대 내가 진실로 너희에게 이르노니 너희가 여기 내 형제 중에 지극히 작은 자 하나에게 한 것이 곧 내게 한 것이니라 하시고 41또 왼편에 있는 자들에게 이르시되 저주를 받은 자들아 나를 떠나 마귀와 그 사자들을 위하여 예비된 영영한 불에 들어가라 42내가 주릴 때에 너희가 먹을 것을 주지 아니하였고 목마를 때에 마시게 하지 아니하였고 43나그네 되었을 때에 영접하지 아니하였고 벗었을 때에 옷 입히지 아니하였고 병들었을 때와 옥에 갇혔을 때에 돌아보지 아니하였느니라 하시니 44저희도 대답하여 가로되 주여 우리가 어느 때에 주의 주리신 것이나 목마르신 것이나 나그네 되신 것이나 벗으신 것이나 병드신 것이나 옥에 갇히신 것을 보고 공양치 아니하더이까 45이에 임금이 대답하여 가라사대 내가 진실로 너희에게 이르노니 이 지극히 작은 자 하나에게 하지 아니한 것이 곧 내게 하지 아니한 것이니라 하시리니 46저희는 영벌에 의인들은 영생에 들어가리라 하시니라

1“Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them, 4but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept. 6But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!’ 7Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8The foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9But 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.’ 10While 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. 11Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’ 12But he answered, ‘Most certainly I tell you, I don’t know you.’ 13Watch therefore, for you don’t know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming. 14“For it is like a man, going into another country, who called his own servants, and entrusted his goods to them. 15To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey. 16Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. 17In the same way, he also who got the two gained another two. 18But he who received the one went away and dug in the earth, and hid his lord’s money. 19“Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reconciled accounts with them. 20He 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.’ 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.’ 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.’ 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.’ 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. 25I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’ 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. 27You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest. 28Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents. 29For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away. 30Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ 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. 32Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. 34Then 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; 35for 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. 36I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you visited me. I was in prison, and you came to me.’ 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? 38When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you? 39When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?’ 40“The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ 41Then 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; 42for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; 43I 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.’ 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?’ 45“Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t do it to me.’ 46These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

1Alsdan zal het Koninkrijk der hemelen gelijk zijn aan tien maagden, welke haar lampen namen, en gingen uit, den bruidegom tegemoet. 2En vijf van haar waren wijzen, en vijf waren dwazen. 3Die dwaas waren, haar lampen nemende, namen geen olie met zich. 4Maar de wijzen namen olie in haar vaten, met haar lampen. 5Als nu de bruidegom vertoefde, werden zij allen sluimerig, en vielen in slaap. 6En ter middernacht geschiedde een geroep: Ziet, de bruidegom komt, gaat uit hem tegemoet! 7Toen stonden al die maagden op, en bereidden haar lampen. 8En de dwazen zeiden tot de wijzen: Geeft ons van uw olie; want onze lampen gaan uit. 9Doch de wijzen antwoordden, zeggende: Geenszins, opdat er misschien voor ons en voor u niet genoeg zij; maar gaat liever tot de verkopers, en koopt voor uzelven. 10Als zij nu heengingen om te kopen, kwam de bruidegom; en die gereed waren, gingen met hem in tot de bruiloft, en de deur werd gesloten. 11Daarna kwamen ook de andere maagden, zeggende: Heer, heer, doe ons open! 12En hij, antwoordende, zeide: Voorwaar zeg ik u: Ik ken u niet. 13Zo waakt dan; want gij weet den dag niet, noch de ure, in welke de Zoon des mensen komen zal. 14Want het is gelijk een mens, die buiten 's lands reizende, zijn dienstknechten riep, en gaf hun zijn goederen over. 15En den ene gaf hij vijf talenten, en den anderen twee, en den derden een, een iegelijk naar zijn vermogen, en verreisde terstond. 16Die nu de vijf talenten ontvangen had, ging heen, en handelde daarmede, en won andere vijf talenten. 17Desgelijks ook die de twee ontvangen had, die won ook andere twee. 18Maar die het ene ontvangen had, ging heen en groef in de aarde, en verborg het geld zijns heren. 19En na een langen tijd kwam de heer van dezelve dienstknechten, en hield rekening met hen. 20En die de vijf talenten ontvangen had, kwam, en bracht tot hem andere vijf talenten, zeggende: Heer, vijf talenten hebt gij mij gegeven; zie, andere vijf talenten heb ik boven dezelve gewonnen. 21En zijn heer zeide tot hem: Wel, gij goede en getrouwe dienstknecht! over weinig zijt gij getrouw geweest; over veel zal ik u zetten; ga in, in de vreugde uws heeren. 22En die de twee talenten ontvangen had, kwam ook tot hem, en zeide: Heer, twee talenten hebt gij mij gegeven; zie, twee andere talenten heb ik boven dezelve gewonnen. 23Zijn heer zeide tot hem: Wel, gij goede en getrouwe dienstknecht, over weinig zijt gij getrouw geweest; over veel zal ik u zetten; ga in, in de vreugde uws heeren. 24Maar die het ene talent ontvangen had, kwam ook en zeide: Heer, ik kende u, dat gij een hard mens zijt, maaiende, waar gij niet gezaaid hebt, en vergaderende van daar, waar gij niet gestrooid hebt; 25En bevreesd zijnde, ben ik heengegaan, en heb uw talent verborgen in de aarde; zie, gij hebt het uwe. 26Maar zijn heer, antwoordende, zeide tot hem: Gij boze en luie dienstknecht! gij wist, dat ik maai, waar ik niet gezaaid heb, en van daar vergader, waar ik niet gestrooid heb. 27Zo moest gij dan mijn geld den wisselaren gedaan hebben, en ik, komende, zou het mijne wedergenomen hebben met woeker. 28Neemt dan van hem het talent weg, en geeft het dengene, die de tien talenten heeft. 29Want een iegelijk, die heeft, dien zal gegeven worden, en hij zal overvloedig hebben; maar van dengene, die niet heeft, van dien zal genomen worden, ook dat hij heeft. 30En werpt den onnutten dienstknecht uit in de buitenste duisternis; daar zal wening zijn en knersing der tanden. 31En wanneer de Zoon des mensen komen zal in Zijn heerlijkheid, en al de heilige engelen met Hem, dan zal Hij zitten op den troon Zijner heerlijkheid. 32En voor Hem zullen al de volken vergaderd worden, en Hij zal ze van elkander scheiden, gelijk de herder de schapen van de bokken scheidt. 33En Hij zal de schapen tot Zijn rechter hand zetten, maar de bokken tot Zijn linker hand. 34Alsdan zal de Koning zeggen tot degenen, die tot Zijn rechter hand zijn: Komt, gij gezegenden Mijns Vaders! beerft dat Koninkrijk, hetwelk u bereid is van de grondlegging der wereld. 35Want Ik ben hongerig geweest, en gij hebt Mij te eten gegeven; Ik ben dorstig geweest, en gij hebt Mij te drinken gegeven; Ik was een vreemdeling, en gij hebt Mij geherbergd. 36Ik was naakt, en gij hebt Mij gekleed; Ik ben krank geweest, en gij hebt Mij bezocht; Ik was in de gevangenis, en gij zijt tot Mij gekomen. 37Dan zullen de rechtvaardigen Hem antwoorden, zeggende: Heere! wanneer hebben wij U hongerig gezien, en gespijzigd, of dorstig, en te drinken gegeven? 38En wanneer hebben wij U een vreemdeling gezien, en geherbergd, of naakt en gekleed? 39En wanneer hebben wij U krank gezien, of in de gevangenis, en zijn tot U gekomen? 40En de Koning zal antwoorden en tot hen zeggen: Voorwaar zeg Ik u: Voor zoveel gij dit een van deze Mijn minste broeders gedaan hebt, zo hebt gij dat Mij gedaan. 41Dan zal Hij zeggen ook tot degenen, die ter linker hand zijn: Gaat weg van Mij, gij vervloekten, in het eeuwige vuur, hetwelk den duivel en zijn engelen bereid is. 42Want Ik ben hongerig geweest, en gij hebt Mij niet te eten gegeven; Ik ben dorstig geweest, en gij hebt Mij niet te drinken gegeven; 43Ik was een vreemdeling; en gij hebt Mij niet geherbergd; naakt, en gij hebt Mij niet gekleed; krank, en in de gevangenis, en gij hebt Mij niet bezocht. 44Dan zullen ook dezen Hem antwoorden, zeggende: Heere, wanneer hebben wij U hongerig gezien, of dorstig, of een vreemdeling, of naakt, of krank, of in de gevangenis, en hebben U niet gediend? 45Dan zal Hij hun antwoorden en zeggen: Voorwaar zeg Ik u: Voor zoveel gij dit een van deze minsten niet gedaan hebt, zo hebt gij het Mij ook niet gedaan. 46En dezen zullen gaan in de eeuwige pijn; maar de rechtvaardigen in het eeuwige leven.
