1 ULB Então o Reino dos Céus será semelhante a dez virgens que tomaram suas lâmpadas e saíram ao encontro do noivo. BSB BSB: “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
2 ULB Cinco delas eram tolas e cinco eram sábias. BSB BSB: Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
3 ULB E quando as tolas pegaram suas lâmpadas, elas não levaram azeite consigo; BSB BSB: The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take along any extra oil.
4 ULB mas as sábias trouxeram vasilhas de azeite juntamente com suas lâmpadas. BSB BSB: But the wise ones took oil in flasks along with their lamps.
5 ULB E demorando o noivo, todas elas ficaram com sono e dormiram. BSB BSB: When the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
6 ULB Mas à meia-noite, ouviu-se um grito: 'Eis o noivo! Saí ao seu encontro.' BSB BSB: At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’
7 ULB Então todas as virgens se levantaram e ajuntaram suas lâmpadas. BSB BSB: Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.
8 ULB As tolas disseram às sábias: 'Dai-nos um pouco do vosso azeite porque nossas lâmpadas estão se apagando.' BSB BSB: The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’
9 ULB Mas as sábias responderam, dizendo: 'De modo algum, não haverá suficiente para nós e vós, ide aos que vendem azeite e comprai para vós.' BSB BSB: ‘No,’ said the wise ones, ‘or there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’
10 ULB Enquanto elas foram comprar, o noivo chegou, e as que estavam prontas foram com ele para a festa de casamento e a porta foi fechada. BSB BSB: But while they were on their way to buy it, the bridegroom arrived. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet, and the door was shut.
11 ULB Após isso as outras virgens também chegaram e disseram: 'Senhor, senhor, abre-nos a porta'. BSB BSB: Later the other virgins arrived and said, ‘Lord, lord, open the door for us!’
12 ULB Mas ele respondeu e disse: 'Verdadeiramente vos digo que não vos conheço.' BSB BSB: But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’
13 ULB Portanto vigiai, porque não sabeis o dia nem a hora. BSB BSB: Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
14 ULB Pois será como um homem que quando estava prestes a ir para outro país, chamou seus servos e os colocou no controle dos seus bens. BSB BSB: For it is just like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted them with his possessions.
15 ULB A um deles deu cinco talentos, a outro deu dois, e ainda a outro ele deu um talento- cada um de acordo com sua própria habilidade, e partiu em viagem. BSB BSB: To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent—each according to his own ability. And he went on his journey.
16 ULB Imediatamente, o que recebeu cinco talentos foi negocia-los e fez outros cinco talentos. BSB BSB: The servant who had received the five talents went at once and put them to work and gained five more.
17 ULB Da mesma maneira, o que recebeu dois talentos fez outros dois. BSB BSB: Likewise, the one with the two talents gained two more.
18 ULB Mas o servo que recebeu um talento foi embora, cavou um buraco no chão e escondeu o dinheiro do seu senhor. BSB BSB: But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
19 ULB E após um longo tempo, o senhor daqueles servos voltou e acertou as contas com eles. BSB BSB: After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.
20 ULB O servo que recebeu cinco talentos veio e trouxe outros cinco; ele disse: 'Senhor, tu me deste cinco talentos. Eis aqui mais cinco talentos.' BSB BSB: The servant who had received the five talents came and presented five more. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.’
21 ULB Seu senhor disse-lhe: 'Muito bem, servo bom e fiel! Foste fiel sobre poucas coisas; sobre muitas te colocarei. Entra na alegria do teu senhor'. BSB BSB: His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
22 ULB E aproximando-se o servo que recebeu dois talentos disse: 'Senhor, tu me deste dois talentos. Eis aqui mais dois talentos.' BSB BSB: The servant who had received the two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more.’
23 ULB Seu senhor disse-lhe: 'Muito bem, servo bom e fiel! Foste fiel sobre poucas coisas; sobre muitas te colocarei. Entra na alegria do teu senhor'. BSB BSB: His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
24 ULB Então o servo que recebeu um talento disse: 'Senhor, eu sei que és rigoroso; colhes onde não semeaste; e ajuntas onde não espalhaste. BSB BSB: Finally, the servant who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed.
25 ULB Eu tive medo, então fui e escondi na terra o teu talento. Aqui tens o que é teu'. BSB BSB: So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what belongs to you.’
26 ULB Mas o seu senhor lhe respondeu, dizendo: “Servo mau e preguiçoso, sabias que eu colho onde não semeei e que ajunto onde não espalhei. BSB BSB: ‘You wicked, lazy servant!’ replied his master. ‘You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed.
27 ULB Portanto, deverias ter entregue o meu dinheiro aos banqueiros, e na minha volta eu o receberia com juros. BSB BSB: Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have received it back with interest.
28 ULB Portanto, tirai o talento dele e dai-o ao que tem dez talentos. BSB BSB: Therefore take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents.
29 ULB Pois a todo que possui, mais será dado- e terá em abundância. Mas ao que não possui nada, até o que ele tem lhe será tirado. BSB BSB: For 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 ULB Lançai o servo inútil para fora, nas trevas. Ali haverá choro e ranger de dentes'. BSB BSB: And throw that worthless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
32 ULB Diante Dele estarão juntas todas as nações, e Ele separará as pessoas umas das outras, como o pastor separa as ovelhas dos bodes. BSB BSB: All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate the people one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 ULB Ele colocará as ovelhas à Sua mão direita, mas os bodes à Sua mão esquerda. BSB BSB: He will place the sheep on His right and the goats on His left.
34 ULB Então o Rei dirá àqueles à Sua mão direita: 'Vinde, benditos do Meu Pai, herdai o Reino que vos foi preparado desde a fundação do mundo. BSB BSB: 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 ULB Pois Eu tive fome e Me destes de comer; tive sede e Me destes de beber; era forasteiro e Me acolhestes; BSB BSB: For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you took Me in,
36 ULB estava nu e Me vestistes; estava doente e cuidastes de Mim; estive preso e viestes ver-Me'. BSB BSB: I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you looked after Me, I was in prison and you visited Me.’
37 ULB Então os justos responderão, dizendo: “Senhor, quando é que Te vimos com fome, e Te alimentamos? Ou com sede e Te demos de beber? BSB BSB: Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You something to drink?
38 ULB E quando é que Te vimos forasteiro e Te acolhemos? Ou nu e Te vestimos? BSB BSB: When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?
39 ULB E quando Te vimos doente ou na prisão e fomos Te visitar?” BSB BSB: When did we see You sick or in prison and visit You?’
40 ULB E o Rei lhes responderá: “Verdadeiramente Eu vos digo que, o que fizestes por um dos Meus pequeninos irmãos, a Mim o fizestes'. BSB BSB: And the King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me.’
42 ULB porque Eu tive fome e não Me destes de comer; tive sede e não Me destes de beber; BSB BSB: For I was hungry and you gave Me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me nothing to drink,
43 ULB era forasteiro e não Me acolhestes; estive nu e não Me vestistes; doente e na prisão e não me visitastes'. BSB BSB: I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, I was naked and you did not clothe Me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after Me.’
44 ULB Então eles também responderão, dizendo: “Senhor, quando é que Te vimos com fome, ou com sede, ou forasteiro, ou nu, ou doente, ou preso, e não Te servimos?' BSB BSB: And they too will reply, ‘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?’
45 ULB Então Ele lhes responderá: “Verdadeiramente Eu vos digo, o que não fizestes a um dos Meus pequeninos, foi a Mim que o deixastes de fazer.” BSB BSB: Then the King will answer, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for Me.’
