| 1 »Tada će kraljevstvo nebesko biti kao kad deset djevica uze svoje svjetiljke i iziđe u susret zaručniku. | 1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be like to ten virgins, who taking their lamps went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride. |
| 2 Pet ih bijaše ludih, a pet mudrih. | 2 And five of them were foolish, and five wise. |
| 3 Lude uzeše svjetiljke, ali ne uzeše sa sobom ulja. | 3 But the five foolish, having taken their lamps, did not take oil with them: |
| 4 Mudre pak zajedno sa svjetiljkama uzeše u posudama ulja.« | 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with the lamps. |
| 5 »Budući da je zaručnik okasnio, sve one zadrijemaše i pozaspaše. | 5 And the bridegroom tarrying, they all slumbered and slept. |
| 6 O ponoći nasta vika: ‘Evo zaručnika! Iziđite mu u susret!’ | 6 And at midnight there was a cry made: Behold the bridegroom cometh, go ye forth to meet him. |
| 7 Tada ustadoše sve one djevice i urediše svoje svjetiljke. | 7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. |
| 8 Lude tada rekoše mudrima: ‘Dajte nam od svoga ulja, gase nam se svjetiljke!’ | 8 And the foolish said to the wise: Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out. |
| 9 Mudre im odgovore: ‘Nipošto! Ne bi doteklo nama i vama. Pođite radije k prodavačima i kupite!’« | 9 The wise answered, saying: Lest perhaps there be not enough for us and for you, go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. |
| 10 »Dok one odoše kupiti, dođe zaručnik: koje bijahu pripravne, uđoše s njim na svadbu i zatvore se vrata. | 10 Now whilst 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 Poslije dođu i ostale djevice pa stanu dozivati: ‘Gospodine! Gospodine! Otvori nam!’ | 11 But at last come also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us. |
| 12 A on im odgovori: ‘Zaista, kažem vam, ne poznam vas!’ | 12 But he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not. |
| 13 Bdijte dakle jer ne znate dana ni časa!« | 13 Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour. |
| 14 »Doista, kao kad ono čovjek, polazeći na put, dozva sluge i dade im svoj imetak. | 14 For even as a man going into a far country, called his servants, and delivered to them his goods; |
| 15 Jednomu dade pet talenata, drugomu dva, a trećemu jedan – svakomu po njegovoj sposobnosti. | 15 And to one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, to every one according to his proper ability: and immediately he took his journey. |
| 16 I otputova. Onaj koji je primio pet talenata odmah ode, upotrijebi ih i stekne drugih pet. | 16 And he that had received the five talents, went his way, and traded with the same, and gained other five. |
| 17 Isto tako i onaj sa dva stekne druga dva. | 17 And in like manner he that had received the two, gained other two. |
| 18 Onaj, naprotiv, koji je primio jedan ode, otkopa zemlju i sakri novac gospodarov.« | 18 But he that had received the one, going his way digged into the earth, and hid his lord's money. |
| 19 »Nakon dugo vremena dođe gospodar tih slugu i zatraži od njih račun. | 19 But after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reckoned with them. |
| 20 Pristupi mu onaj što je primio pet talenata i donese drugih pet govoreći: ‘Gospodaru! Pet si mi talenata predao. Evo, drugih sam pet talenata stekao!’ | 20 And he that had received the five talents coming, brought other five talents, saying: Lord, thou didst deliver to me five talents, behold I have gained other five over and above. |
| 21 Reče mu gospodar: ‘Valjaš, slugo dobri i vjerni! U malome si bio vjeran, nad mnogim ću te postaviti! Uđi u radost gospodara svoga!’« | 21 His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant, because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. |
| 22 »Pristupi i onaj sa dva talenta te reče: ‘Gospodaru! Dva si mi talenta predao. Evo, druga sam dva talenta stekao!’ | 22 And he also that had received the two talents came and said: Lord, thou deliveredst two talents to me: behold I have gained other two. |
| 23 Reče mu gospodar: ‘Valjaš, slugo dobri i vjerni! U malome si bio vjeran, nad mnogim ću te postaviti! Uđi u radost gospodara svoga.’« | 23 His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant: because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. |
| 24 »A pristupi i onaj koji je primio jedan talenat te reče: ‘Gospodaru! Znadoh te: čovjek si strog, žanješ gdje nisi sijao i kupîš gdje nisi vijao. | 24 But he that had received the one talent, came and said: Lord, I know that thou art a hard man; thou reapest where thou hast not sown, and gatherest where thou hast not strewed. |
| 25 Pobojah se stoga, odoh i sakrih talenat tvoj u zemlju. Evo ti tvoje!’ | 25 And being afraid I went and hid thy talent in the earth: behold here thou hast that which is thine. |
| 26 A gospodar mu reče: ‘Slugo zli i lijeni! Znao si da žanjem gdje nisam sijao i kupîm gdje nisam vijao! | 26 And his lord answering, said to him: Wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sow not, and gather where I have not strewed: |
| 27 Trebalo je dakle da uložiš moj novac kod novčara i ja bih po povratku izvadio svoje s dobitkom.’« | 27 Thou oughtest therefore to have committed my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received my own with usury. |
| 28 »’Uzmite stoga od njega talenat i podajte onomu koji ih ima deset. | 28 Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him that hath ten talents. |
| 29 Doista, onomu koji ima još će se dati, neka ima u izobilju, a od onoga koji nema oduzet će se i ono što ima. | 29 For to every one that hath shall be given, and he shall abound: but from him that hath not, that also which he seemeth to have shall be taken away. |
| 30 A beskorisnoga slugu izbacite van u tamu. Ondje će biti plač i škrgut zubî.’« | 30 And the unprofitable servant cast ye out into the exterior darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. |
| 31 »Kad Sin Čovječji dođe u slavi i svi anđeli njegovi s njime, sjest će na prijestolje slave svoje. | 31 And when the Son of man shall come in his majesty, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit upon the seat of his majesty. |
| 32 I sabrat će se pred njim svi narodi, a on će ih jedne od drugih razlučiti kao što pastir razlučuje ovce od jaraca. | 32 And all nations shall be gathered together before him, and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats: |
| 33 Postavit će ovce sebi zdesna, a jarce slijeva.« | 33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left. |
| 34 »Tada će kralj reći onima sebi zdesna: ‘Dođite, blagoslovljeni Oca mojega! Primite u baštinu Kraljevstvo pripravljeno za vas od postanka svijeta! | 34 Then shall the king say to them that shall be on his right hand: Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess you the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. |
| 35 Jer ogladnjeh i dadoste mi jesti; ožednjeh i napojiste me; stranac bijah i primiste me; | 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: |
| 36 gol i zaogrnuste me; oboljeh i pohodiste me; u tamnici bijah i dođoste k meni.’« | 36 Naked, and you covered me: sick, and you visited me: I was in prison, and you came to me. |
| 37 »Tada će mu pravednici odgovoriti: ‘Gospodine, kada te to vidjesmo gladna i nahranismo te; ili žedna i napojismo te? | 37 Then shall the just answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, and fed thee; thirsty, and gave thee drink? |
| 38 Kada te vidjesmo kao stranca i primismo; ili gola i zaogrnusmo te? | 38 And when did we see thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and covered thee? |
| 39 Kada te vidjesmo bolesna ili u tamnici i dođosmo k tebi?’ | 39 Or when did we see thee sick or in prison, and came to thee? |
| 40 A kralj će im odgovoriti: ‘Zaista, kažem vam, što god učiniste jednomu od ove moje najmanje braće, meni učiniste!’« | 40 And the king answering, shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me. |
| 41 »Zatim će reći i onima slijeva: ‘Odlazite od mene, prokleti, u oganj vječni, pripravljen đavlu i anđelima njegovim! | 41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels. |
| 42 Jer ogladnjeh i ne dadoste mi jesti; ožednjeh i ne dadoste mi piti; | 42 For I was hungry, and you gave me not to eat: I was thirsty, and you gave me not to drink. |
| 43 stranac bijah i ne primiste me; gol i ne zaogrnuste me; bolestan i u tamnici i ne pohodiste me!’« | 43 I was a stranger, and you took me not in: naked, and you covered me not: sick and in prison, and you did not visit me. |
| 44 »Tada će mu i oni odgovoriti: ‘Gospodine, a kada te to vidjesmo gladna, ili žedna, ili stranca, ili gola, ili bolesna, ili u tamnici, i ne poslužismo te?’ | 44 Then they also shall answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to thee? |
| 45 Tada će im on odgovoriti: ‘Zaista, kažem vam, što god ne učiniste jednomu od ovih najmanjih, ni meni ne učiniste.’« | 45 Then he shall answer them, saying: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it not to one of these least, neither did you do it to me. |
| 46 »I otići će ovi u muku vječnu, a pravednici u život vječni.« | 46 And these shall go into everlasting punishment: but the just, into life everlasting. |
