MATTHEW
Chapter 25
Matt | Darby | 25:1 | Then shall the kingdom of the heavens be made like to ten virgins that having taken their torches, went forth to meet the bridegroom. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:6 | But in [the] middle of [the] night there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom; go forth to meet him. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:8 | And the foolish said to the prudent, Give us of your oil, for our torches are going out. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:9 | But the prudent answered saying, [We cannot,] lest it might not suffice for us and for you. Go rather to those that sell, and buy for yourselves. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:10 | But as they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and the [ones that were] ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:14 | For [it is] as [if] a man going away out of a country called his own bondmen and delivered to them his substance. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:15 | And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to each according to his particular ability, and immediately went away out of the country. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:16 | And he that had received the five talents went and trafficked with them, and made five other talents. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:18 | But he that had received the one went and dug in the earth, and hid the money of his lord. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:20 | And he that had received the five talents came to [him] and brought five other talents, saying, [My] lord, thou deliveredst me five talents; behold, I have gained five other talents besides them. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:21 | His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter into the joy of thy lord. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:22 | And he also that had received the two talents came to [him] and said, [My] lord, thou deliveredst me two talents; behold, I have gained two other talents besides them. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:23 | His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:24 | And he also that had received the one talent coming to [him] said, [My] lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou hadst not sowed, and gathering from where thou hadst not scattered, | |
Matt | Darby | 25:25 | and being afraid I went away and hid thy talent in the earth; behold, thou hast that which is thine. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:26 | And his lord answering said to him, Wicked and slothful bondman, thou knewest that I reap where I had not sowed, and gather from where I had not scattered; | |
Matt | Darby | 25:27 | thou oughtest then to have put my money to the money-changers, and when I came I should have got what is mine with interest. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:29 | for to every one that has shall be given, and he shall be in abundance; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:30 | And cast out the useless bondman into the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:31 | But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit down upon his throne of glory, | |
Matt | Darby | 25:32 | and all the nations shall be gathered before him; and he shall separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; | |
Matt | Darby | 25:34 | Then shall the King say to those on his right hand, Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from [the] world's foundation: | |
Matt | Darby | 25:35 | for I hungered, and ye gave me to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in; | |
Matt | Darby | 25:36 | naked, and ye clothed me; I was ill, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came to me. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:37 | Then shall the righteous answer him saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, and nourished thee; or thirsting, and gave thee to drink? | |
Matt | Darby | 25:40 | And the King answering shall say to them, Verily, I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have done it to one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it to me. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:41 | Then shall he say also to those on the left, Go from me, cursed, into eternal fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: | |
Matt | Darby | 25:42 | for I hungered, and ye gave me not to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave me not to drink; | |
Matt | Darby | 25:43 | I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye did not clothe me; ill, and in prison, and ye did not visit me. | |
Matt | Darby | 25:44 | Then shall they also answer saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, or thirsting, or a stranger, or naked, or ill, or in prison, and have not ministered to thee? | |
Matt | Darby | 25:45 | Then shall he answer them saying, Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have not done it to one of these least, neither have ye done it to me. | |
