Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Tunc simile erit regnum cælorum decem virginibus: quæ accipientes lampades suas exierunt obviam sponso et sponsæ.
1Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2Quinque autem ex eis erant fatuæ, et quinque prudentes:
2And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3sed quinque fatuæ, acceptis lampadibus, non sumpserunt oleum secum:
3They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4prudentes vero acceperunt oleum in vasis suis cum lampadibus.
4But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5Moram autem faciente sponso, dormitaverunt omnes et dormierunt.
5While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6Media autem nocte clamor factus est: Ecce sponsus venit, exite obviam ei.
6And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
7Tunc surrexerunt omnes virgines illæ, et ornaverunt lampades suas.
7Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8Fatuæ autem sapientibus dixerunt: Date nobis de oleo vestro, quia lampades nostræ extinguuntur.
8And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
9Responderunt prudentes, dicentes: Ne forte non sufficiat nobis, et vobis, ite potius ad vendentes, et emite vobis.
9But 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.
10Dum autem irent emere, venit sponsus: et quæ paratæ erant, intraverunt cum eo ad nuptias, et clausa est janua.
10And 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.
11Novissime vero veniunt et reliquæ virgines, dicentes: Domine, domine, aperi nobis.
11Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12At ille respondens, ait: Amen dico vobis, nescio vos.
12But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13Vigilate itaque, quia nescitis diem, neque horam.
13Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
14Sicut enim homo peregre proficiscens, vocavit servos suos, et tradidit illis bona sua.
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.
15Et uni dedit quinque talenta, alii autem duo, alii vero unum, unicuique secundum propriam virtutem: et profectus est statim.
15And 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.
16Abiit autem qui quinque talenta acceperat, et operatus est in eis, et lucratus est alia quinque.
16Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
17Similiter et qui duo acceperat, lucratus est alia duo.
17And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
18Qui autem unum acceperat, abiens fodit in terram, et abscondit pecuniam domini sui.
18But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.
19Post multum vero temporis venit dominus servorum illorum, et posuit rationem cum eis.
19After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
20Et accedens qui quinque talenta acceperat, obtulit alia quinque talenta, dicens: Domine, quinque talenta tradidisti mihi, ecce alia quinque superlucratus sum.
20And 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.
21Ait illi dominus ejus: Euge serve bone, et fidelis: quia super pauca fuisti fidelis, super multa te constituam; intra in gaudium domini tui.
21His 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.
22Accessit autem et qui duo talenta acceperat, et ait: Domine, duo talenta tradidisti mihi, ecce alia duo lucratus sum.
22He 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.
23Ait illi dominus ejus: Euge serve bone, et fidelis: quia super pauca fuisti fidelis, super multa te constituam; intra in gaudium domini tui.
23His 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.
24Accedens autem et qui unum talentum acceperat, ait: Domine, scio quia homo durus es; metis ubi non seminasti, et congregas ubi non sparsisti:
24Then 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:
25et timens abii, et abscondi talentum tuum in terra: ecce habes quod tuum est.
25And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26Respondens autem dominus ejus, dixit ei: Serve male, et piger, sciebas quia meto ubi non semino, et congrego ubi non sparsi:
26His 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:
27oportuit ergo te committere pecuniam meam numulariis, et veniens ego recepissem utique quod meum est cum usura.
27Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28Tollite itaque ab eo talentum, et date ei qui habet decem talenta:
28Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
29omni enim habenti dabitur, et abundabit: ei autem qui non habet, et quod videtur habere, auferetur ab eo.
29For 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.
30Et inutilem servum ejicite in tenebras exteriores: illic erit fletus, et stridor dentium.
30And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
31Cum autem venerit Filius hominis in majestate sua, et omnes angeli cum eo, tunc sedebit super sedem majestatis suæ:
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:
32et congregabuntur ante eum omnes gentes, et separabit eos ab invicem, sicut pastor segregat oves ab hædis:
32And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
33et statuet oves quidem a dextris suis, hædos autem a sinistris.
33And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34Tunc dicet rex his qui a dextris ejus erunt: Venite benedicti Patris mei, possidete paratum vobis regnum a constitutione mundi:
34Then 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:
35esurivi enim, et dedistis mihi manducare: sitivi, et dedistis mihi bibere: hospes eram, et collegistis me:
35For 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:
36nudus, et cooperuistis me: infirmus, et visitastis me: in carcere eram, et venistis ad me.
36Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37Tunc respondebunt ei justi, dicentes: Domine, quando te vidimus esurientem, et pavimus te: sitientem, et dedimus tibi potum?
37Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee ? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38quando autem te vidimus hospitem, et collegimus te: aut nudum, et cooperuimus te?
38When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee ?
39aut quando te vidimus infirmum, aut in carcere, et venimus ad te?
39Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40Et respondens rex, dicet illis: Amen dico vobis, quamdiu fecistis uni ex his fratribus meis minimis, mihi fecistis.
40And 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.
41Tunc dicet et his qui a sinistris erunt: Discedite a me maledicti in ignem æternum, qui paratus est diabolo, et angelis ejus:
41Then 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:
42esurivi enim, et non dedistis mihi manducare: sitivi, et non desistis mihi potum:
42For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43hospes eram, et non collegistis me: nudus, et non cooperuistis me: infirmus, et in carcere, et non visitastis me.
43I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44Tunc respondebunt ei et ipsi, dicentes: Domine, quando te vidimus esurientem, aut sitientem, aut hospitem, aut nudum, aut infirmum, aut in carcere, et non ministravimus tibi?
44Then 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?
45Tunc respondebit illis, dicens: Amen dico vobis: Quamdiu non fecistis uni de minoribus his, nec mihi fecistis.
45Then 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.
46Et ibunt hi in supplicium æternum: justi autem in vitam æternam.
46And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
