Matye 25:14-30

¹⁴ ‘It is like a man about to go abroad who summoned his servants and entrusted hisproperty to them.

¹⁵ To one he gave five talents, to another two, nan yon twazyèm, chak nan pwopòsyon ak kapasite li. Apre sa, li pati nan vwayaj li.

¹⁶ Nonm ki te resevwa senk talan yo san pèdi tan ale, li fè komès ak yo, li fè senk lòt.

¹⁷ Nonm ki te resevwa de a fè de lòt nan menm fason an.

¹⁸ Men nonm ki te resevwa youn nan ale, li fouye yon twou nan tè a epi li kache lajan mèt li a.

¹⁹ Koulye a, yon bon bout tan apre sa, Mèt domestik sa yo tounen, li fè kont li avèk yo.

²⁰ Nonm ki te resevwa senk talan an pwoche bò kote l, li pote senk lòt. “Mesye,” li te di, “ou konfye m senk talan; Men senk plis ke mwen te fè.”

²¹ Mèt li di li, “Byen fè, bon sèvitè ki fè konfyans; ou te montre ou gen konfyans nan ti bagay; Mwen pral fè ou konfyans ak pi gwo; come and join in your master’s happiness.”

²² Next the man with the two talents came forward. “Mesye,” li te di, “you entrusted me with two talents; here are two more that I have made.”

²³ Mèt li di li, “Byen fè, bon sèvitè ki fè konfyans; ou te montre ou gen konfyans nan ti bagay; Mwen pral fè ou konfyans ak pi gwo; come and join in your master’s happiness.”

²⁴ Last came forward the man who had the single talent. “Mesye,” said he, “I had heard you were a hard man, reaping where you had not sown and gathering where you had not scattered;

²⁵ so I was afraid, and I went off and hid your talent in the ground. Here it is; it was yours, you have it back.”

²⁶ But his master answered him, “You wicked and lazy servant! So you knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered?

²⁷ Well then, ou ta dwe depoze lajan mwen ak bankye yo, and on my return I would have got my money back with interest.

²⁸ Se konsa, kounye a, take the talent from him and give it to the man who has the ten talents.

²⁹ For to everyone who has will be given more, and he will have more than enough; but anyone who has not, will be deprived even of what he has.

³⁰ As for this good-for-nothing servant, throw him into the darkness outside, where therewill be weeping and grinding of teeth.”
