Matthew - Chapter: 25
25:1 | Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. |
25:2 | And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. |
25:3 | They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: |
25:4 | But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. |
25:5 | While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. |
25:6 | And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. |
25:7 | Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. |
25:8 | And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. |
25:9 | But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. |
25:10 | And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. |
25:11 | Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. |
25:12 | But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. |
25:13 | Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. |
25:14 | For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. |
25:15 | And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. |
25:16 | Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. |
25:17 | And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. |
25:18 | But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. |
25:19 | After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. |
25:20 | And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. |
25:21 | His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. |
25:22 | He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. |
25:23 | His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. |
25:24 | Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: |
25:25 | And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. |
25:26 | His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: |
25:27 | Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. |
25:28 | Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. |
25:29 | For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. |
25:30 | And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. |
25:31 | When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: |
25:32 | And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: |
25:33 | And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. |
25:34 | Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: |
25:35 | For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: |
25:36 | Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. |
25:37 | Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? |
25:38 | When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? |
25:39 | Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? |
25:40 | And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. |
25:41 | Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: |
25:42 | For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: |
25:43 | I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. |
25:44 | Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? |
25:45 | Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. |
25:46 | And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. |
25:1 | Then the kingdome of heauen shalbe likened vnto tenne virgins, which tooke their lampes, and went foorth to meete the bridegrome. |
25:2 | And fiue of them were wise, and fiue foolish. |
25:3 | The foolish tooke their lampes, but tooke none oyle with them. |
25:4 | But the wise tooke oyle in their vessels with their lampes. |
25:5 | Nowe while the bridegrome taried long, all slumbred and slept. |
25:6 | And at midnight there was a crie made, Behold, the bridegrome commeth: goe out to meete him. |
25:7 | Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lampes. |
25:8 | And the foolish said to the wise, Giue vs of your oyle, for our lampes are out. |
25:9 | But the wise answered, saying, Not so, lest there will not be ynough for vs and you: but goe ye rather to them that sell, and bye for your selues. |
25:10 | And while they went to bye, the bridegrome came: and they that were readie, went in with him to the wedding, and the gate was shut. |
25:11 | Afterwards came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to vs. |
25:12 | But he answered, and said, Verely I say vnto you, I knowe you not. |
25:13 | Watch therfore: for ye know neither the day, nor the houre, when the sonne of man will come. |
25:14 | For the kingdome of heauen is as a man that going into a strange countrey, called his seruants, and deliuered to them his goods. |
25:15 | And vnto one he gaue fiue talents, and to an other two, and to another one, to euery man after his own ability, and straightway went from home. |
25:16 | Then he that had receiued the fiue talents, went and occupied with them, and gained other fiue talents. |
25:17 | Likewise also, he that receiued two, he also gained other two. |
25:18 | But he that receiued that one, went and digged it in the earth, and hid his masters money. |
25:19 | But after a long season, the master of those seruants came, and reckoned with them. |
25:20 | Then came he that had receiued fiue talents, and brought other fiue talents, saying, Master, thou deliueredst vnto me fiue talents: behold, I haue gained with them other fiue talents. |
25:21 | Then his master saide vnto him, It is well done good seruant and faithfull, Thou hast bene faithfull in litle, I will make thee ruler ouer much: enter into thy masters ioy. |
25:22 | Also he that had receiued two talents, came, and said, Master, thou deliueredst vnto me two talents: behold, I haue gained two other talets more. |
25:23 | His master saide vnto him, It is well done good seruant, and faithfull, Thou hast bene faithfull in litle, I will make thee ruler ouer much: enter into thy masters ioy. |
25:24 | Then he which had receiued the one talent, came, and said, Master, I knewe that thou wast an hard man, which reapest where thou sowedst not, and gatherest where thou strawedst not: |
25:25 | I was therefore afraide, and went, and hid thy talent in the earth: behold, thou hast thine owne. |
25:26 | And his master answered, and said vnto him, Thou euill seruant, and slouthfull, thou knewest that I reape where I sowed not, and gather where I strawed not. |
25:27 | Thou oughtest therefore to haue put my money to ye exchangers, and then at my comming should I haue receiued mine owne with vantage. |
25:28 | Take therefore the talent from him, and giue it vnto him which hath tenne talents. |
25:29 | For vnto euery man that hath, it shall be giuen, and he shall haue abundance, and from him that hath not, euen that he hath, shalbe taken away. |
25:30 | Cast therefore that vnprofitable seruant into vtter darkenes: there shalbe weeping and gnasshing of teeth. |
25:31 | And when the Sonne of man commeth in his glory, and all the holy Angels with him, then shall he sit vpon the throne of his glorie, |
25:32 | And before him shalbe gathered all nations, and he shall seperate them one from another, as a shepheard separateth the sheepe from ye goates. |
25:33 | And he shall set the sheepe on his right hand, and the goates on the left. |
25:34 | Then shall ye king say to them on his right hand, Come ye blessed of my father: take the inheritance of the kingdome prepared for you from the foundation of the world. |
25:35 | For I was an hungred, and ye gaue me meate: I thirsted, and ye gaue me drinke: I was a stranger, and ye tooke me in vnto you. |
25:36 | I was naked, and ye clothed me: I was sicke, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came vnto me. |
25:37 | Then shall the righteous answere him, saying, Lord, when sawe we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or a thirst, and gaue thee drinke? |
25:38 | And when sawe we thee a stranger, and tooke thee in vnto vs? or naked, and clothed thee? |
25:39 | Or when sawe we thee sicke, or in prison, and came vnto thee? |
25:40 | And the King shall answere, and say vnto them, Verely I say vnto you, in as much as ye haue done it vnto one of the least of these my brethre, ye haue done it to me. |
25:41 | Then shall he say vnto them on ye left hand, Depart from me ye cursed, into euerlasting fire, which is prepared for the deuill and his angels. |
25:42 | For I was an hungred, and ye gaue me no meate: I thirsted, and ye gaue me no drinke: |
25:43 | I was a stranger, and ye tooke me not in vnto you: I was naked, and ye clothed me not: sicke, and in prison, and ye visited me not. |
25:44 | Then shall they also answere him, saying, Lord, when sawe we thee an hungred, or a thirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sicke, or in prison, and did not minister vnto thee? |
25:45 | Then shall he answere them, and say, Verely I say vnto you, in as much as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. |
25:46 | And these shall goe into euerlasting paine, and the righteous into life eternall. |
25:1 | Then ye kyngdome of heven shalbe lykened vnto .x. virgins which toke their lampes and wet to mete the brydgrome: |
25:2 | fyve of them were folysshe and fyve were wyse. |
25:3 | The folysshe toke their lampes but toke none oyle wt the. |
25:4 | But ye wyse tooke oyle wt the in their vesselles wt their lampes also. |
25:5 | Whill the brydgrome taryed all slombred and slepte. |
25:6 | And even at mydnyght there was a crye made: beholde the brydgrome cometh goo out against him. |
25:7 | Then all those virgins arose and prepared their lampes. |
25:8 | And ye folysshe sayde to ye wyse: geve vs of youre oyle for our lampes goo out? |
25:9 | but ye wyse answered sayinge. Not so lest ther be not ynough for vs and you: but goo rather to them yt sell and by for youre selves. |
25:10 | And whill they went to bye ye brydgrome came: and they yt were redy went in with him to ye weddinge and the gate was shett vp: |
25:11 | Afterwardes came also ye other virgins sayinge: master master open to vs. |
25:12 | But he answered and sayde: verely I saye vnto you: I knowe not you. |
25:13 | Watche therefore: for ye knowe nether the daye nor yet the houre when the sonne of man shall come. |
25:14 | Lykwyse as a certeyne ma redy to take his iorney to a straunge coutre called his servautes and delivered to them his gooddes. |
25:15 | And vnto one he gave .v. talentes to another .ii. and to another one: to every man after his abilite and streyght waye departed. |
25:16 | Then he that had receaved the fyve talentes went and bestowed them and wanne other fyve talentes. |
25:17 | Lykwyse he that receaved .ii. gayned other .ii. |
25:18 | But he yt receaved ye one went and digged a pit in the erth and hyd his masters money. |
25:19 | After a longe season ye lorde of those servauntes came and rekened with the. |
25:20 | Then came he yt had receaved fyve talentes and brought other fyve talentes sayinge: master thou deliveredst vnto one fyve talentes: beholde I have gayned wt the fyve talentes moo. |
25:21 | The his master sayde vnto him: well good servaut and faithfull. Thou hast bene faithfull in lytell I will make the ruler over moche: entre in into thy masters ioye. |
25:22 | Also he that receaved .ii. talentes came and sayde: master thou deliveredest vnto me .ii. talentes: beholde I have wone .ii. other talentes with them. |
25:23 | And his master sayde vnto him well good servaunt and faithfull. Thou hast bene faithfull in lytell I wyll make the ruler over moche: go in into thy masters ioye. |
25:24 | Then he which had receaved ye one talent came and sayd: master I considered yt thou wast an harde man which repest where thou sowedst not and gadderest where thou strawedst not |
25:25 | and was therfore afrayde and went and hyd thy talent in ye erth: Beholde thou hast thyn awne. |
25:26 | His master answered and sayde vnto him: thou evyll servaut and slewthfull thou knewest yt I repe where I sowed not and gaddre where I strawed not: |
25:27 | thou oughtest therfore to have had my money to ye chaugers and then at my comynge shulde I have receaved myne awne with vauntage. |
25:28 | Take therfore the talent from him and geve it vnto him which hath .x. talentes. |
25:29 | For vnto every man that hath shalbe geven and he shall have aboundance: and from him that hath not shalbe taken awaye even that he hath. |
25:30 | And cast yt vnprofitable servaunt into vtter dercknes: there shalbe wepynge and gnasshinge of teeth. |
25:31 | When the sonne of ma cometh in his glorie and all the holy angels wt him then shall he syt vpon the seate of his glorie |
25:32 | and before him shalbe Gaddred all nacions. And he shall seperate the one from a nother as a shepherde deuideth the shepe from the gootes. |
25:33 | And he shall set the shepe on his right honde and the gotes on the lyfte. |
25:34 | Then shall the kynge saye to them on his right honde: Come ye blessed chyldren of my father inheret ye the kyngdo prepared for you from the beginninge of the worlde. |
25:35 | For I was anhongred and ye gave me meate. I thursted and ye gave me drinke. I was herbourlesse and ye lodged me. |
25:36 | I was naked and ye clothed me. I was sicke and ye visited me. I was in preson and ye came vnto me. |
25:37 | Then shall ye righteous answere him sayinge master whe sawe we ye anhongred and feed the? or a thurst and gave ye drinke? |
