Библия, нов превод от оригиналните езици (с неканоничните книги)

Притча за десетте девици

25 (A)Тогава небесното царство ще се оприличи на десет девойки, които взеха светилниците си и излязоха да посрещнат младоженеца. 2 Пет от тях бяха благоразумни, а пет – неразумни. 3 Неразумните, като взеха светилниците си, не взеха със себе си елей; 4 а благоразумните заедно със светилниците си взеха и елей в съдовете си. 5 И понеже младоженецът се бавеше, всички задрямаха и заспаха. 6 А среднощ се чу вик: „Ето младоженецът идва, излезте да го посрещнете.“ 7 Тогава всички тези девойки станаха и приготвиха светилниците си; 8 а неразумните рекоха на благоразумните: „Дайте ни от вашия елей, защото светилниците ни гаснат. 9 Но благоразумните в отговор им казаха: ‘Да не би да не стигне за нас и за вас, идете по-добре при продавачите и си купете.’ 10 А когато те отидоха да купят, пристигна младоженецът и готовите влязоха с него на сватбата, и вратата се затвори. 11 После дойдоха и другите девойки и извикаха: ‘Господарю, господарю, отвори ни!’ 12 (B)А той им отвърна и рече: ‘Истината ви казвам, не ви познавам.’ 13 (C)И тъй, бъдете будни, защото не знаете нито деня, нито часа, когато ще дойде Синът човешки[a].“

Притча за талантите

14 (D)(E)„Защото Той ще постъпи като един човек, който, тръгвайки за чужбина, повика слугите си и им повери имота си; 15 и на един даде пет таланта, на друг – два, на трети – един, на всеки според умението; и отпътува. 16 Този, който взе петте таланта, веднага отиде, вложи ги в работа и спечели други пет таланта. 17 Също тъй и който взе два таланта, спечели други два. 18 А който взе единия талант, отиде, разкопа земята и скри парите на господаря си. 19 След дълго време господарят на тези слуги се завърна и им поиска сметка. 20 Тогава пристъпи онзи, който бе взел петте таланта, донесе други пет таланта и каза: ‘Господарю, ти ми повери пет таланта, ето аз спечелих с тях други пет таланта.’ 21 (F)Господарят му каза: ‘Хубаво си постъпил, ти си добър и верен слуга! В малкото си бил верен, над много ще те поставя, ела и сподели радостта на господаря си.’ 22 Приближи се също и онзи, който бе взел двата таланта, и каза: ‘Господарю, ти ми повери два таланта; ето аз спечелих с тях други два таланта.’ 23 Господарят му каза: ‘Хубаво си постъпил, ти си добър и верен слуга! В малкото си бил верен, над много ще те поставя; ела и сподели радостта на господаря си.’ 24 Пристъпи и онзи, който бе взел единия талант, и рече: ‘Господарю, аз те знаех, че си суров човек; жънеш, където не си сял, и събираш, където не си пръскал, 25 затова се уплаших и отидох, та скрих таланта ти в земята, ето ти твоето.’ 26 А господарят му отвърна: ‘Ти си лукав и ленив слуга! Знаеше, че жъна, където не съм сял, и събирам, където не съм пръскал. 27 Затова трябваше да вложиш парите ми при лихварите; аз пък, когато си дойдех, щях да прибера своето с лихва. 28 Затова вземете от него таланта и го дайте на онзи, който има десет таланта; 29 (G)защото на всеки, който има, ще се даде и преумножи, а от онзи, който няма достатъчно, ще се отнеме и това, което има. 30 (H)А негодния слуга хвърлете в тъмнината; там ще бъде плач и скърцане със зъби.’ Като рече това, извика: ‘Който има уши да слуша, нека слуша’!“

Предстоящият всеобщ съд

31 (I)„А когато Синът човешки дойде в славата Си и всички свети ангели с Него, тогава ще седне на славния Си престол 32 (J)и ще се съберат пред Него всички народи; и ще отдели едни от други, както пастир отлъчва овце от кози; 33 и ще постави овцете от дясната Си страна, а козите – от лявата. 34 Тогава Царят ще каже на онези, които са от дясната Му страна: ‘Елате вие, благословените от Моя Отец, наследете царството, приготвено за вас от сътворението на света, 35 (K)защото гладен бях и Ми дадохте да ям, жаден бях и Ме напоихте, бездомен бях и Ме приютихте, 36 (L)гол бях и Ме облякохте, болен бях и Ме посетихте, в затвор бях и Ме навестихте.’ 37 Тогава праведниците ще Му отговорят и ще кажат: ‘Господи, кога Те видяхме гладен и Те нахранихме или жаден и Те напоихме? 38 Кога Те видяхме бездомен и Те прибрахме или гол и Те облякохме? 39 Кога Те видяхме болен или в затвор и Те посетихме?’ 40 (M)А Царят в отговор ще им каже: ‘Истината ви казвам: доколкото сте сторили това на един от тези Мои най-малки братя, на Мене сте го сторили.’

41 Тогава ще каже и на онези, които са от лявата страна: ‘Идете си от Мене, проклети, във вечния огън, приготвен за дявола и неговите ангели, 42 (N)защото гладен бях и не Ми дадохте да ям, жаден бях и не Ме напоихте, 43 бездомен бях и не Ме приютихте, гол бях и не Ме облякохте, болен бях и в затвор – и не Ме посетихте.’ 44 Тогава и те ще Му отговорят с думите: ‘Господи, кога Те видяхме гладен или жаден, или бездомен, или гол, или болен, или в затвор и не Ти послужихме?’ 45 Тогава Той ще им отговори: ‘Истината ви казвам: доколкото не сте сторили това на един от тези Мои най-малки братя, и на Мене не сте го сторили.’ 46 (O)И те ще отидат във вечна мъка, а праведните – във вечен живот.“

1940 Bulgarian Bible

25 Тогава небесното царство ще се оприличи на десет девици, които взеха светилниците, си и излязоха да посрещнат младоженеца.

2 А от тях пет бяха неразумни и пет разумни.

3 Защото неразумните, като взеха светилниците, не взеха масло със себе си.

4 Но разумните, заедно със светилниците си взеха и масло в съдовете си.

5 И докато се бавеше младоженецът, додряма се на всичките, и заспаха.

6 А по среднощ се нададе вик: Ето младоженецът [иде!] излизайте да го посрещнете!

7 Тогава всички ония девици станаха и приготвиха светилниците си.

8 А неразумните рекоха на разумните: Дайте ни от вашето масло, защото нашите светилници угасват.

9 А разумните в отговор казаха: Да не би да не стигне и за нас и за вас, по-добре идете при продавачите и си купете.

10 А когато те отидоха да купят, младоженецът пристигна; и готовите влязоха с него на сватбата, и вратата се затвори.

11 После дохождат и другите девици и казват: Господи! Господи! отвори ни.

12 А той в отговор рече: Истина ви казвам: Не ви познавам.

13 И тъй, бдете; защото не знаете ни деня, ни часа, [в който Човешкият Син ще дойде].

14 Защото< е> както<, когато> човек при тръгването си за чужбина, свиква своите слуги, и им предаде имота си.

15 На един даде пет таланта, на друг два, на трети един, на всеки според способността му; и тръгна.

16 Веднага тоя, който получи петте таланта, отиде и търгува с тях, и спечели още пет таланта.

17 Също и тоя, който <получи> двата спечели още два.

18 А тоя, който получи единия, отиде разкопа в земята, и скри парите на господаря си.

19 След дълго време дохожда господарят на тия слуги и прегледа сметката с тях,

20 И когато се приближи тоя, който бе получил петте таланта, донесе още пет таланта, и рече: Господарю, ти ми предаде пет таланта; ето, спечелих още пет.

21 Господарят му рече: Хубаво, добри и верни слуго! в малкото си бил верен, над многото ще те поставя; влез в радостта на господаря си.

22 Приближи се и тоя, който бе получил <двата таланта>, и рече: Господарю, ти ми даде два таланта, ето, спечелих още два таланта.

23 Господарят му рече: Хубаво, добри и верни слуго! над малкото си бил верен, над многото ще те поставя; влез в радостта на господаря си.

24 Тогава се приближи тоя който бе получил един талант, и рече: Господарю, аз те знаех, че си строг човек; жънеш гдето не си сеял, и събираш гдето не си пръскал;

25 и като се убоях отидох и скрих таланта ти в земята; ето, имаш своето.

26 А Господарят му в отговор каза: Зли и лениви слуго! знаел си, че жъна гдето не съм сеял, и събирам гдето не съм пръскал;

27 ти, прочее, трябваше да внесеш парите ми на банкерите, и когато си дойдех, щях да взема своето с лихва.

28 Затова, вземете от него таланта и дайте го на този, който има десет таланта.

29 Защото на всекиго, който има, ще се даде, и той ще има изобилие; а от този, който няма от него ще се отнеме и това, което има.

30 А тоя безполезен слуга хвърлете във външната тъмнина; там ще бъде плач и скърцане със зъби.

31 А когато дойде Човешкият Син в славата Си, и всичките [свети] ангели с Него, тогава ще седне на славния Си престол.

32 И ще се съберат пред Него всичките народи; и ще ги отлъчи един от други, както овчарят отлъчва овцете от козите;

33 и ще постави овцете от дясната Си страна, а козите от лявата.

34 Тогава царят ще рече на тия, които са от дясната Му страна: Дойдете вие благословени от Отца Ми, наследете царството, приготвено за вас от създанието на света.

35 Защото огладнях и Ме нахранихте; ожаднях и Ме напоихте; странник бях и Ме прибрахте;

36 гол бях и Ме облякохте; болен бях и Ме посетихте; в тъмница бях и Ме споходихте.

37 Тогава праведните в отговор ще Му кажат: Господи, кога Те видяхме гладен, и Те нахранихме; или жаден, и Те напоихме?

38 И кога Те видяхме странник, и Те прибрахме, или гол и Те облякохме?

39 И кога Те видяхме болен или в тъмница и Те споходихме?

40 А Царят в отговор ще им рече: Истина ви казвам: Понеже сте направили това на един от тия най-скромни Мои братя, на Мене сте го направили.

41 Тогава ще рече и на тия, които са от лявата Му страна: Идете си от Мене, вие проклети, във вечния огън, приготвен за дявола и за неговите ангели.

42 Защото огладнях и не Ме нахранихте; ожаднях и не Ме напоихте;

43 странник <бях>, и не Ме облякохте; болен и в тъмница <бях>, и не Ме посетихте.

44 Тогава и те в отговор ще кажат: Господи, кога Те видяхме гладен, или жаден, или странник, или гол, или болен, или в тъмница и не Ти послужихме?

45 Тогава в отговор ще им рече: Истина ви казвам: Понеже не сте направили това на ни един от тия най-скромните, нито на Мене сте го направили.

46 И тия ще отидат във вечно наказание, а праведните във вечен живот.

New English Translation

The Parable of the Ten Virgins

25 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five[a] of the virgins[b] were foolish, and five were wise. 3 When[c] the foolish ones took their lamps, they did not take extra[d] olive oil[e] with them. 4 But the wise ones took flasks of olive oil with their lamps. 5 When[f] the bridegroom was delayed a long time, they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6 But at midnight there was a shout, ‘Look, the bridegroom is here! Come out to meet him.’ 7 Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The[g] foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, because our lamps are going out.’ 9 ‘No,’ they replied.[h] ‘There won’t be enough for you and for us. Go instead to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’ 10 But while they had gone to buy it, the bridegroom arrived, and those who were ready went inside with him to the wedding banquet. Then[i] the door was shut. 11 Later,[j] the other virgins came too, saying, ‘Lord, lord! Let us in!’[k] 12 But he replied,[l] ‘I tell you the truth,[m] I do not know you!’ 13 Therefore stay alert, because you do not know the day or the hour.[n]

The Parable of the Talents

14 “For it is like a man going on a journey, who summoned his slaves[o] and entrusted his property to them. 15 To[p] one he gave five talents,[q] to another two, and to another one, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. 16 The one who had received five talents went off right away and put his money to work[r] and gained five more. 17 In the same way, the one who had two gained two more. 18 But the one who had received one talent went out and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money in it. 19 After[s] a long time, the master of those slaves came and settled his accounts with them. 20 The[t] one who had received the five talents came and brought five more, saying, ‘Sir,[u] you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.’ 21 His master answered,[v] ‘Well done, good and faithful slave! You have been faithful in a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master.’ 22 The[w] one with the two talents also came and said, ‘Sir, you entrusted two talents to me. See, I have gained two more.’ 23 His master answered, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave! You have been faithful with a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master.’ 24 Then the one who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Sir, I knew that you were a hard man, harvesting where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter seed, 25 so[x] I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.’ 26 But his master answered,[y] ‘Evil and lazy slave! So you knew that I harvest where I didn’t sow and gather where I didn’t scatter? 27 Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers,[z] and on my return I would have received my money back with interest![aa] 28 Therefore take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten.[ab] 29 For the one who has will be given more,[ac] and he will have more than enough. But the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.[ad] 30 And throw that worthless slave into the outer darkness,[ae] where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

The Judgment

31 “When[af] the Son of Man comes in his glory and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All[ag] the nations will be assembled before him, and he will separate people one from another like a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He[ah] will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34 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. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him,[ai] ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When[aj] did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or naked and clothe you? 39 When[ak] did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the king will answer them,[al] ‘I tell you the truth,[am] just as you did it for one of the least of these brothers or sisters[an] of mine, you did it for me.’

41 “Then he will say[ao] to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire that has been prepared for the devil and his angels! 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink. 43 I was a stranger and you did not receive me as a guest, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ 44 Then they too will answer,[ap] ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not give you whatever you needed?’ 45 Then he will answer them,[aq] ‘I tell you the truth,[ar] just as you did not do it for one of the least of these, you did not do it for me.’ 46 And these will depart into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”[as]

The longer reading thus appears to be an explanatory expansion and should not be considered authentic.

BDAG 18 s.v. ἀδελφός 1, where considerable nonbiblical evidence for the plural ἀδελφοί [adelphoi] meaning “brothers and sisters” is cited). In this context Jesus is ultimately speaking of his “followers” (whether men or women, adults or children), but the familial connotation of “brothers and sisters” is also important to retain here.

  45. Matthew 25:46 sn Here the ultimate destination of the righteous is eternal life. In several places Matthew uses “life” or “eternal life” in proximity with “the kingdom of heaven” or merely “the kingdom,” suggesting a close relationship between the two concepts (compare Matt 25:34 with v. 46; Matt 19:16, 17, 29 with vv. 23, 24). Matthew consistently portrays “eternal life” as something a person enters in the world to come, whereas the Gospel of John sees “eternal life” as beginning in the present and continuing into the future (cf. John 5:24).

The Parable of the Ten Virgins

25 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like(A) ten virgins who took their lamps(B) and went out to meet the bridegroom.(C) 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise.(D) 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.(E)

6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’(F)

9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’

10 “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet.(G) And the door was shut.

11 “Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’

12 “But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’(H)

13 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.(I)

The Parable of the Bags of Gold(J)

14 “Again, it will be like a man going on a journey,(K) who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them. 15 To one he gave five bags of gold, to another two bags, and to another one bag,[a] each according to his ability.(L) Then he went on his journey. 16 The man who had received five bags of gold went at once and put his money to work and gained five bags more. 17 So also, the one with two bags of gold gained two more. 18 But the man who had received one bag went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.

19 “After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.(M) 20 The man who had received five bags of gold brought the other five. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five bags of gold. See, I have gained five more.’

21 “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.(N) Come and share your master’s happiness!’

22 “The man with two bags of gold also came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with two bags of gold; see, I have gained two more.’

23 “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.(O) Come and share your master’s happiness!’

24 “Then the man who had received one bag of gold came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’

26 “His master replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? 27 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest.

28 “‘So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. 29 For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.(P) 30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’(Q)

The Sheep and the Goats

31 “When the Son of Man comes(R) in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne.(S) 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate(T) the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.(U) 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom(V) prepared for you since the creation of the world.(W) 35 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 invited me in,(X) 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me,(Y) I was sick and you looked after me,(Z) I was in prison and you came to visit me.’(AA)

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’(AB)

41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me,(AC) you who are cursed, into the eternal fire(AD) prepared for the devil and his angels.(AE) 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’(AF)

46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.(AG)”(AH)
