Matthew 25

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be like ten virgins, who, taking their lamps, went out to meet the groom and the bride.	1 حينئذ يشبه ملكوت السموات عشر عذارى اخذن مصابيحهن وخرجن للقاء العريس.
2 But five of them were foolish, and five were prudent.	2 وكان خمس منهنّ حكيمات وخمس جاهلات.
3 For the five foolish, having brought their lamps, did not take oil with them.	3 اما الجاهلات فاخذن مصابيحهن ولم ياخذن معهن زيتا.
4 Yet truly, the prudent ones brought the oil, in their containers, with the lamps.	4 واما الحكيمات فاخذن زيتا في آنيتهن مع مصابيحهن.
5 Since the bridegroom was delayed, they all fell asleep, and they were sleeping.	5 وفيما ابطأ العريس نعسن جميعهن ونمن.
6 But in the middle of the night, a cry went out: ‘Behold, the groom is arriving. Go out to meet him.’	6 ففي نصف الليل صار صراخ هوذا العريس مقبل فاخرجن للقائه.
7 Then all those virgins rose up and trimmed their lamps.	7 فقامت جميع اولئك العذارى واصلحن مصابيحهن.
8 But the foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give to us from your oil, for our lamps are being extinguished.’	8 فقالت الجاهلات للحكيمات اعطيننا من زيتكن فان مصابيحنا تنطفئ.
9 The prudent responded by saying, ‘Lest perhaps there may not be enough for us and for you, it would be better for you to go to the vendors and buy some for yourselves.’	9 فاجابت الحكيمات قائلات لعله لا يكفي لنا ولكنّ بل اذهبن الى الباعة وابتعن لكنّ.
10 But while they were going to buy it, the groom arrived. And those who were prepared entered with him to the wedding, and the door was closed.	10 وفيما هنّ ذاهبات ليبتعن جاء العريس والمستعدات دخلن معه الى العرس وأغلق الباب.
11 Yet truly, at the very end, the remaining virgins also arrived, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’	11 اخيرا جاءت بقية العذارى ايضا قائلات يا سيد يا سيد افتح لنا.
12 But he responded by saying, ‘Amen I say to you, I do not know you.’	12 فاجاب وقال الحق اقول لكن اني ما اعرفكنّ.
13 And so you must be vigilant, because you do not know the day or the hour.	13 فاسهروا اذا لانكم لا تعرفون اليوم ولا الساعة التي يأتي فيها ابن الانسان
14 For it is like a man setting out on a long journey, who called his servants and delivered to them his goods.	14 وكأنما انسان مسافر دعا عبيده وسلمهم امواله.
15 And to one he gave five talents, and to another two, yet to another he gave one, to each according to his own ability. And promptly, he set out.	15 فاعطى واحدا خمس وزنات وآخر وزنتين وآخر وزنة. كل واحد على قدر طاقته. وسافر للوقت.
16 Then he who had received five talents went out, and he made use of these, and he gained another five.	16 فمضى الذي اخذ الخمس وزنات وتاجر بها فربح خمس وزنات أخر.
17 And similarly, he who had received two gained another two.	17 وهكذا الذي اخذ الوزنتين ربح ايضا وزنتين أخريين.
18 But he who had received one, going out, dug into the earth, and he hid the money of his lord.	18 واما الذي اخذ الوزنة فمضى وحفر في الارض واخفى فضة سيده.
19 Yet truly, after a long time, the lord of those servants returned and he settled accounts with them.	19 وبعد زمان طويل أتى سيد اولئك العبيد وحاسبهم.
20 And when he who had received five talents approached, he brought another five talents, saying: ‘Lord, you delivered five talents to me. Behold, I have increased it by another five.’	20 فجاء الذي اخذ الخمس وزنات وقدم خمس وزنات أخر قائلا يا سيد خمس وزنات سلمتني. هوذا خمس وزنات أخر ربحتها فوقها.
21 His lord said to him: ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. Since you have been faithful over a few things, I will appoint you over many things. Enter into the gladness of your lord.’	21 فقال له سيده نعمّا ايها العبد الصالح والامين كنت امينا في القليل فاقيمك على الكثير. ادخل الى فرح سيدك.
22 Then he who had received two talents also approached, and he said: ‘Lord, you delivered two talents to me. Behold, I have gained another two.’	22 ثم جاء الذي اخذ الوزنتين وقال يا سيد وزنتين سلمتني. هوذا وزنتان أخريان ربحتهما فوقهما.
23 His lord said to him: ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. Since you have been faithful over a few things, I will appoint you over many things. Enter into the gladness of your lord.’	23 قال له سيده نعمّا ايها العبد الصالح والامين. كنت امينا في القليل فاقيمك على الكثير. ادخل الى فرح سيدك.
24 Then he who had received one talent, approaching, said: ‘Lord, I know that you are a hard man. You reap where you have not sown, and gather where you have not scattered.	24 ثم جاء ايضا الذي اخذ الوزنة الواحدة وقال. يا سيد عرفت انك انسان قاس تحصد حيث لم تزرع وتجمع حيث لم تبذر.
25 And so, being afraid, I went out and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’	25 فخفت ومضيت واخفيت وزنتك في الارض. هوذا الذي لك.
26 But his lord said to him in response: ‘You evil and lazy servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered.	26 فاجاب سيده وقال له ايها العبد الشرير والكسلان عرفت اني احصد حيث لم ازرع واجمع من حيث لم ابذر.
27 Therefore, you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and then, at my arrival, at least I would have received what is mine with interest.	27 فكان ينبغي ان تضع فضتي عند الصيارفة. فعند مجيئي كنت آخذ الذي لي مع ربا.
28 And so, take the talent away from him and give it the one who has ten talents.	28 فخذوا منه الوزنة واعطوها للذي له العشر وزنات.
29 For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he shall have in abundance. But from him who has not, even what he seems to have, shall be taken away.	29 لان كل من له يعطى فيزداد ومن ليس له فالذي عنده يؤخذ منه.
30 And cast that useless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’	30 والعبد البطال اطرحوه الى الظلمة الخارجية. هناك يكون البكاء وصرير الاسنان
31 But when the Son of man will have arrived in his majesty, and all the Angels with him, then he will sit upon the seat of his majesty.	31 ومتى جاء ابن الانسان في مجده وجميع الملائكة القديسين معه فحينئذ يجلس على كرسي مجده.
32 And all the nations shall be gathered together before him. And he shall separate them from one another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.	32 ويجتمع امامه جميع الشعوب فيميّز بعضهم من بعض كما يميّز الراعي الخراف من الجداء.
33 And he shall station the sheep, indeed, on his right, but the goats on his left.	33 فيقيم الخراف عن يمينه والجداء عن اليسار.
34 Then the King shall say to those who will be on his right: ‘Come, you blessed of my Father. Possess the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.	34 ثم يقول الملك للذين عن يمينه تعالوا يا مباركي ابي رثوا الملكوت المعد لكم منذ تأسيس العالم.
35 For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in;	35 لاني جعت فاطعمتموني. عطشت فسقيتموني. كنت غريبا فآويتموني.
36 naked, and you covered me; sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me.’	36 عريانا فكسيتموني. مريضا فزرتموني. محبوسا فأتيتم اليّ.
37 Then the just will answer him, saying: ‘Lord, when have we see you hungry, and fed you; thirsty, and given you drink?	37 فيجيبه الابرار حينئذ قائلين. يا رب متى رأيناك جائعا فاطعمناك. او عطشانا فسقيناك.
38 And when have we seen you a stranger, and taken you in? Or naked, and covered you?	38 ومتى رأيناك غريبا فآويناك. او عريانا فكسوناك.
39 Or when did we see you sick, or in prison, and visit to you?’	39 ومتى رأيناك مريضا او محبوسا فأتينا اليك.
40 And in response, the King shall say to them, ‘Amen I say to you, whenever you did this for one of these, the least of my brothers, you did it for me.’	40 فيجيب الملك ويقول لهم الحق اقول لكم بما انكم فعلتموه باحد اخوتي هؤلاء الاصاغر فبي فعلتم
41 Then he shall also say, to those who will be on his left: ‘Depart from me, you accursed ones, into the eternal fire, which was prepared for the devil and his angels.	41 ثم يقول ايضا للذين عن اليسار اذهبوا عني يا ملاعين الى النار الابدية المعدة لابليس وملائكته.
42 For I was hungry, and you did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and you did not give me to drink;	42 لاني جعت فلم تطعموني. عطشت فلم تسقوني.
43 I was a stranger and you did not take me in; naked, and you did not cover me; sick and in prison, and you did not visit me.’	43 كنت غريبا فلم تأووني. عريانا فلم تكسوني. مريضا ومحبوسا فلم تزوروني.
44 Then they will also answer him, saying: ‘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?’	44 حينئذ يجيبونه هم ايضا قائلين يا رب متى رأيناك جائعا او عطشانا او غريبا او عريانا او مريضا او محبوسا ولم نخدمك.
45 Then he shall respond to them by saying: ‘Amen I say to you, whenever you did not do it to one of these least, neither did you do it to me.’	45 فيجيبهم قائلا الحق اقول لكم بما انكم لم تفعلوه باحد هؤلاء الاصاغر فبي لم تفعلوا.
46 And these shall go into eternal punishment, but the just shall go into eternal life.”	46 فيمضي هؤلاء الى عذاب ابدي والابرار الى حياة ابدية
