1Ndipo bhufalme bhwa kumbinguni bhwibetakufananisibhwa ni bhanabhali kumi bhabhatolili taa sya bhene ni kulota kunjambelela bwana harusi.
2Bhahanu miongoni mwa bhene bhajhele bhapumbafu na bhahanu bhangi bhajhele bherevu.
3Bhanabhali bhapumbafu bhatolili taa sya bhene, bhatolili lepi mafuta ghoghoha ghala.
4Bali bhanabhali bherevu bhatolili fenu fyafijhele ni mafuta pamonga ni taa sya bhene.
5Hene bho bwana harusi akabhili kuhida bhoha bhakamuliki ni ligono na bhakagona.
6Lakini bho jhijhingili ngisi pakilu pajhele ni njweghu, 'Langayi, bwana harusi! Muhomayi kwibhala kunjamb'elela.'
7Ndipo abhu bhana bhali bhakajhumuka bhoha ni kubhwasya taa sya bhene.
8Bhala bhapumbafu bhakabhajobhela bhala bherevu, 'mutupelayi sehemu jha mafuta gha muenga kwandabha taa syitu sisimika.'
9Lakini bhala bherevu bhakabhajibu ni kubhajobhela, 'Kwa kujha ghibetalepi kututosya tete ni muenga badala jhiakhe mulotayi kwa bhabhihemetesya mkahemelayi kiasi kwa ndabha jha muenga.'
10Bho bhatolili okhu kuhemela, Bwana harusi akahida, na bhoha bhajhele tayari bhakalota nakhu ku sherehe jha harusi, ni ndiangu ukadendibhwa.
11Baadaye bhala bhana bhali bhangi pia bhakahida ni kujobha, 'Bwana, bwana, tudendulilayi.'
12Lakini ajibili ni kujobha, 'Kweli nikabhajobhela, Nene nibhamanyili lepi.'
13Henu mulangayi, kwandabha mumanyilepi ligono au lisaa.
14Kwa kujha ni sawa ni munu jhaalondeghe kusafiri kulota nchi yenge. Akabhakuta bhatumwa bhwa muene ni kubhakabidhi bhutajiri bhwa muene.
15Mmonga kati jha bhene ampelili talanta sihanu, jhongi ampelili sibhele, nu jhongi ampelili talanta jhimonga. Kila mmonga ampelili kul'engana ni bhuwezo bhwa muene, nu munu jhola akasafiri kwilotela.
16Manyata jhola jhaajhambelili talanta sihanu alotili kusijhandisila ni kusihogolesya taanta sengi sihanu.
17Vilevile jhola jhaapokili talanta sibhele asihogolisi senge sibhele.
18Lakini n'tumwa j'haapokili talanta jhimonga, akilotili, akagima lilende pasi ni kufigha talanta jha bwana ghwa muene.
19Na baada jha muda ufupi, bwana ghwa bhatumwa abhu akherebhwiki ni kutengenesiya mahesabu nabhu.
20Jhola n'tumwa jhaapokili talanta sihanu ahidi ni kusileta kabhele senge sihanu, akajobha, 'Bwana, wanipelili talanta sihanu. Langayi, nikabhili faida jha talanta senge sihanu.'
21Bwana ghwa muene akan'jobhela, 'Hongera, n'tumwa nnofu na mwaminifu! Ujhele mwaminofu kwa fenu fidebe. Nibetakupela madaraka kufenu fibhaha fingi. Jhingilayi mu furaha jha bwana ghwakhu!
22N'tumwa jha apokili talanta sibhele akahida ni kujobha, 'Bwana, ghwanibelili talanta sibhele. Langayi, nikabhili kabhele faida jha talanta sijhele,'
23Bwana ghwa muene akan'jobhela, 'Hongera, n'tumwa nnofu na mwaminifu! Ujhele ghwa mwaminifu kwa fenu fidebe. Nibetakupela madaraka juu jha fenu fingi. Jhingilayi mu furaha jha bwana bhwakhu.'
24Baadajhe n'tumwa jhaapokili talanta jhimonga akahida ni kujobha, 'Bwana, nimanyili kujha bhebhe ghwe nkali. Ghwijhabhe ambapo upandilepi, na ghwivuna mahali ambapo usiyelili lepi.
25Nene natilili nalotili kuifigha talanta jha jhobhi mu bhudongo. Langayi, ujhenajhu apa jhele jhaijhele jhajhobhi.'
26Lakini bwana ghwake akajibu akajibu ni kujobha, 'Bhebhe n'tumwa mwovu na mzembe ghwamanyili kujha nijhabha mahali ambapo nipandilepi ni kuvuna mahali ambapo nisyelili lepi.
27Henu ulondekeghe kubhapela hela jhangu bhanu bha benki, na bhwakati bhwa kubhujha kwa nene nganijhipokili jhela jha nene pamonga ni faida jhiakhe.
28Henu munyakayi talanta ejhu na mumpelayi jhola jha ajhele ni talanta kumi.
29Kila munu jha ajhenaku, ibetakujhongesibhwa zaidi-hata kwa kujhongesibhwa kabhele. Lakini kwa jhejhioha jhaibetalepi kujha naku na hata khela kya ajhe nakhu inyakibhwa.
30Mun'sopayi kwibhala kukitita n'tumwa ojhu jhailondeka lepi, ambako kubetakujha ni kilelu ni kusiagha minu.'
31Bwakati Mwana ghwa Adamu paibetakuhida mu bhutukufu bhwa muene, ni malaika bhoha pamonga nu muene, ndipo paibetakutama panani pa kiti kwa muene kya bhutukufu.
32Mataifa ghoha ghibetakwibhongeniya mbele sya muene, nu muene ibetakubhatangenisya bhanu, kama vile n'chungaji kyaikabhatenganisya kondoo ni mmene.
33Ibetakubheka kondoo kibhoko kyamuene kya kuume, bali mmene ibetakubhabheka kibhoko kya kushoto.
34Kisha mfalme ibetakubhajobhela bhala bha bhajhele kibhoko kya kulia, 'Muhidayi, mwamubarikibhu ni tata ghwa ghwanene, mubhulithiayi bhufalme bhwabhujhandalibhu kwa ndabha jhinu kuhomela kubhakibhwa msingi bhwa bhulimwengu.
35Kwa kujha najhele ni njala na mwanipelili kyakulya; Najhele na n'geni na mwanikaribisi;
36Najhele ngholi, na mwanifwatiki nghobho; Najhele na n'tamu na mwan'tunzili; Najhele mu kifungu na mwahidili kunilota.
37Ndipo bhenye haki bhibetakun'jibu ni kun'jobhela, 'Bwana, ndali twakubhwene ujhe ni njala ni kukulesya? Au kujha ni kiu na tukakupela masi?
38Na ndali twakubhwene ghwe n'geni, na tukakukaribisya? Au ujhe ngholi na tukakufweka nghobho?
39Na ndali tubetakubhona ghwiluala kama wiluala, au mu kifungu, tukahida kulola?
40Na mfalme ibetakubhajibu ni kubhajobhela, 'bhukweli nikabhajobhela, kyamkibhombili apa kwa mmonga ghwa bhalongo bhangu bhadebe, munibhombili nene.'
41Ndipo ibetakubhajobhela abhu bhabhajhele kibhokho kya muene kya kushoto, 'Mubhokayi kwa nene, mwamulaanibhu, mulotayi mu muoto bhwa milele bhwabhujhandalibhu kwa ndabha jha lisyetani ni malaika bha muene,
42kwa ndabha najhele ni njala lakini mwanijhimili kyakulya; najhele ni kiu lakini mwanjimili masi;
43Najhele ne n'geni lakini mwabelili kunikaribisya; najhele ngholi lakini mwanipelili lepi nghobho; najhele nen'tamu na nikajhelayi mu kifungu, lakini mwan'tunzi lepi.'
44Ndipo bhene pia bhibetakun'jibu ni kujobha, 'Bwana, ndali twakubhwene ujhele ni njala au kiu au n'geni, au ngholi, au n'tamu, au afungibhu, na twakuhudumili lepi?
45Kisha ibetakubhajibu ni kubhajobhela, 'Kweli nikabhajobhela, khela ambakyo mwakibhombili lepi kwa mmonga ghwa abha bhadebe, munibhombilepi nene.'
46Abha bhibetakulota mu adhabu jha milele bali bhenye haki mu bhusima bhwa milele.
