Matye 25
Nouvo Testaman: Vèsyon Kreyòl Fasil
Parabòl dis jèn fi yo
25 Nan jou sa a, wayòm Bondye a ap tankou dis demwazèldonè ki te dwe al rankontre mesye marye a ak lanp yo pou yo ka klere chemen pwosesyon an pou li. 2 Senk ladan yo se te tèt cho, lòt senk yo te gen tèt yo anplas. 3 Medam tèt cho pran lanp yo se vre, men yo pa t pran pyès gaz rezèv. 4 Lòt senk medam yo, non sèlman yo te pote lanp, men yo te pote boutèy gaz yo tou. 5 Kòm mesye marye a pran tan pou rive, medam yo vin kagou epi yon ti dòmi vòlè yo.
6 A minwi, gen yon vwa ki anonse byen fò: Men mesye marye ap vini! Soti vin rankontre l.
7 Lè sa a tout medam yo reveye, epi yo kòmanse prepare lanp yo. 8 Kounye a, medam tèt cho yo di lòt medam yo: Ban nou ti gaz tanpri, lanp nou yo ap mouri!
9 Medam ki te gen tèt anplas yo reponn: Non, gaz nou genyen p ap ase pou nou tout. Al achte nan men machann yo.
10 Pandan medam tèt cho yo sou wout pou y al achte gaz, mesye marye a rive. Medam ki te pare yo antre nan sal bankè nòs la. Apre sa, yon responsab fèmen pòt la.
11 Lè lòt medam ki t al achte gaz yo retounen, yo kòmanse sipliye mesye marye a pou ouvri pou yo: Senyè, SENYÈ, ouvri pou nou!
12 Men li reponn yo: An verite, m pa konnen nou!
13 Konsa, nou dwe toujou pare, paske nou pa konnen ni ki jou, ni ki lè Pitit Lòm nan ap retounen.
Yon istwa sou twa sèvitè
(Lik 19:11-27)
14 Wayòm syèl la se tankou yon nonm ki ap pati pou yon vwayaj byen long. Li rele sèvitè li yo pou l ba yo responsab tout byen li genyen. 15 Li gade sou kapasite chak moun pou l konn ki kantite byen pou l bay yo responsab. Li rele yon premye li ba li senk sak lajan.[a] Li rele yon dezyèm, li ba li de sak. Li bay yon twazyèm yon sak. Apre sa li pati. 16 Sèvitè ki te resevwa senk sak lajan an pa t pèdi tan pou l te kòmanse fè l travay. Li fè yon benefis menm gwosè ak manman lajan an. 17 Sèvitè ki te resevwa de sak lajan an fè benefis de lòt sak. 18 Poutan, sèvitè ki te resevwa yon sèl sak lajan an fouye yon twou li sere lajan mèt li te ba l responsab la anba tè.
19 Apre yon bon tan deyò, mèt la retounen epi l rele sèvitè l yo pou yo vin ba l rapò. 20 Sèvitè ki te resevwa senk sak lajan an vini ak senk sak anplis. Li di: Mèt, ou te ban m responsab senk sak, men senk sak benefis mwen fè.
21 Mèt la di li: Konpliman, ou se yon bon sèvitè, yon sèvitè fidèl! Poutèt ou te fidèl nan ti bagay mwen pral ba w responsab anpil gwo bagay. Vin rejwi ak mèt ou!
22 Sèvitè ki te resevwa de sak la vini ak de lòt sak anplis. Li di: Mèt, ou te bann responsab de sak, men de lòt sak benefis mwen fè.
23 Mèt la di li: Konpliman, ou se yon bon sèvitè, yon sèvitè fidèl. Poutèt ou te fidèl nan ti bagay mwen pral ba w responsab anpil gwo bagay. Vin rejwi ak mèt ou!
24 Sèvitè ki te resevwa yon sèl sak lajan an vini. Li di mèt la: Mwen te konnen ou se nèg ki di. Ou rekòlte kote w pa t simen grenn. Ou ranmase fwi kote w pa t plante. 25 Mwen te pè. Konsa mwen te sere lajan w nan anba tè. Men lajan w, mwen pot tounen ba ou!
26 Mèt la reponn li: Ou se yon sèvitè mechan epi w parese! Ou te konnen m rekòlte kote m pa t simen grenn, m ranmase fwi kote w pa t plante, 27 pouki ou pa t met lajan m nan labank? Konsa, m ta jwenn yon ti enterè sou li.
28 Pran lajan an nan men l bay sèvitè ki fè lajan an rapòte dis (10) fwa plis la. 29 Wi, moun ki byen sèvi ak sa l gen nan men l ap resevwa plis toujou. Epi li p ap manke anyen! Men moun ki mal sèvi ak sa l gen nan men l, y a wete nan men l tout ti sa l te genyen. 30 Pran voryen an, voye l deyò nan fènwa a kote ki pral gen rèl ak manje dan.
Pitit Lòm nan gen pou jije tout moun
31 Lè Pitit Lòm nan vini ak tout otorite l ansanm ak tout anj li yo, l ap chita sou yon twòn ki montre tout glwa li. 32 Apre sa tout nasyon sou latè pral rasanble devan li. L ap separe yo youn ak lòt, menm jan yon bèje separe mouton ak kabrit. 33 L ap mete mouton yo sou bò dwat li, l ap mete kabrit yo sou bò gòch li.
34 Apre sa wa a pral di moun ki sou bò dwat li yo: Vin non, nou menm moun Papa m beni. Vin pran posesyon wayòm Papa m te prepare pou nou an depi nan kòmansman. 35 Wayòm nan se pou nou, paske lè m te grangou nou te bann manje. Lè m te swaf, nou te bann bwè. Lè m te etranje nan lari, nou te resevwa m lakay nou. 36 Lè m te touni nou te bann rad. Lè m te malad, nou te pran swen m. Lè m te nan prizon, nou te vizite m.
37 Lè sa a moun jis yo ap reponn: Senyè, ki lè nou te wè w grangou nou te ba w manje? Ki lè nou te wè w swaf, nou te ba w bwè? 38 Ki lè nou te wè w etranje nan lari, nou te resevwa w lakay nou? Ki lè nou te wè w touni nou te ba w rad? 39 Ki lè nou te wè w malad, nou te pran swen w? Ki lè nou te wè w nan prizon, nou te vizite w?
40 Lè sa a wa a va reponn yo: An verite, m ap di nou, chak fwa nou te fè sa pou youn nan pi piti nan frè m yo, se pou mwen nou te fè l.
41 Apre sa l ap di sa k sou bò gòch li yo: Rale kò nou sou mwen, bann moun modi! Ale nan dife lanfè ki te prepare pou dyab la ak anj li yo. 42 Lè m te grangou nou pa t bann manje. Lè m te swaf, nou pa t bann bwè. 43 Lè m te etranje nan lari, nou pa t resevwa m lakay nou. Lè m te touni nou pa t bann rad. Lè m te malad, nou pa t pran swen m. Lè m te nan prizon, nou pa t vizite m.
44 Lè sa a y ap reponn li: Senyè ki lè ou te grangou oswa swaf, oswa etranje nan lari, oswa touni, oswa nan prizon epi nou pa t ede w?
45 Lè sa a wa a va reponn yo: An verite, m ap di nou, chak fwa nou pa t fè sa pou youn nan pi piti nan frè m yo, se pou mwen nou pa t fè l.
46 Apre sa, moun ki te renmen fè mal yo pral resevwa yon pinisyon etènèl. Moun ki jis yo pral resevwa lavi etènèl.”

Evangelical Heritage Version
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 of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3 When the foolish ones took their lamps, they did not take any oil with them; 4 but the wise took oil in their containers with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6 But at midnight there was a shout, ‘Look, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ 7 Then all those virgins got up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil because our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise answered, ‘No, there may not be enough for us and for you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’ 10 But while they were away buying oil, the bridegroom came. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet, and the door was shut. 11 Later, the other virgins also came and said, ‘Lord, Lord, let us in.’ 12 But he answered, ‘Amen I tell you: I do not know you.’ 13 Therefore, keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
The Parable of the Talents
14 “You see, the kingdom of heaven is like a man going on a journey. He called his servants and entrusted his possessions to them. 15 To one he gave five talents,[a] to another two talents, and to still another one talent, each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey. 16 The servant who had received the five talents immediately put them to work and gained five more talents. 17 In the same way, the servant who had received the two talents gained two more. 18 But the servant who had received one talent went away, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
19 “After a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 20 The servant who received the five talents came and brought five more talents. He said, ‘Master, you entrusted five talents to me. See, I have gained five more talents.’
21 “His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful with a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master.’
22 “The servant who received the two talents came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more talents.’
23 “His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You were faithful with a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master.’
24 “Then the servant who received one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not plant and gathering where you did not scatter seed. 25 Since I was afraid, I went away and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.’
26 “His master answered him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant! You knew that I reap where I did not plant and gather where I did not scatter seed? 27 Well then, you should have deposited my money with the bankers so that when I came I would get my money back with interest. 28 Take the talent away from him and give it to the servant who has the ten talents. 29 Because 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. 30 Throw that worthless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
Jesus Will Judge the World
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered in his presence, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 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, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you welcomed me. 36 I was lacking clothes and you clothed me. I was sick and you took care of me. I was in prison and you visited me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you a drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or lacking clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’
40 “The King will answer them, ‘Amen I tell you: Just as you did it for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it for me.’
41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire, which is prepared for the Devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you did not give me food to eat. I was thirsty and you did not give me anything to drink. 43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, lacking clothes and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not take care of me.’
44 “Then they will also answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or lacking clothes or sick or in prison and did not serve you?’
45 “At that time he will answer them, ‘Amen I tell you: Just as you did not do it for one of the least of these, you did not do it for me.’ 46 And they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”
