Matthew 23
1 JESUS itŭm'sĭtsĭpsiuax akai'tappix ki otŭsksĭnĭmats'ax,
Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples,
2 Ki an'iu, Ai'sĭnakix ki Pharisees, Moses otsiso'pŏtsĭsaie itau'piau:
saying, "Upon the seat of Moses the Pharisees and scribes sit.
3 Ŭnnikaie kitomian'ĭstaniipuai sat'sĭk ki nĭstutsĭk'. Ki manĭstsĭs'tutsipiau, pinan ĭs'tutsik: tŭk'ka itan'iau, ki matsĭstutŭkkiu'axau.
All which they will say unto you, observe and do; but their works do not do, because they say, and do not do.
4 Issoksĭs'tsĭsts itau'monĭmiauĕsts soku'ĕsts mŏkopa'tosau ki matap'pix otsĭstsoauĕsts itotom'iauĕsts; ki osto'auai matakotsĭstŭpakiotsĭm'axauĕsts tuks'kŭmi okĭt'suauax.
For they bind heavy and hard to bear burdens, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not lift a finger to help them.
5 Otokŏnap'otŭksuauĕsts itsĭstuts'ĭmiauĕsts mŏksĭnnu'yĭsau matap'pix: itopŭx'ĭstutsĭmiauĕsts phylacteries, ki itomŭx'ĭstutsĭmĕsts otsaieno'tŭksuauĕsts,
But all their works they do to be seen by others. They make their tefillin broad and enlarge the fringe of their garments,
6 Ki ŭkome'tsĭmiauĕsts oye'tanĭsts ĭstotom'iapioyĭsts, ki natoi'apioyĭsts ĭstotom'isopŏtsĭsts.
and love the place of honor at feasts, the best seats in the synagogues,
7 Ki otsitau'pĭsau itau'pumaupi aiksemattsĭni'otseisĭnni, ki mŏks'ĭnikŏttosau, Rabbi, Rabbi.
the grteetings in the marketplaces, and to be called 'Rabbi' by people.
8 Pinĭs'tsĭnikŭkĭk Rabbi: tuks'kŭmă kitsĭn'aimoauă, Christ: ki ksĕsto'au kĭtokŏnaix'okoauax.
But you are not to be called 'Rabbi,' for one is your Teacher, and all of you are brothers.
9 Ki Pini'nikŏttok matap'pi, annom' ksŏk'kum, kĭn'a; tuks'kŭmă kĭn'oaua annŏk' spots'im itau'piuŏk.
Call no man on the earth your father, for one is your Father, he who is in heaven.
10 Ki pinitsĭn'ikŭkĭk Nin'ax: tuks'kŭma kitsĭn'aimoaua, Christ.
Neither be called masters, for one is your master, the Messiah.
11 Annŏk' omŭx'ĭmŏk ksĕsto'au, kitak'apotomokoau.
But he who is greatest among you will be your servant.
12 Annŏk' ak'omuxĭstutosiuŏk, aks'inŭxĭstutoau; ki annŏk' aksinŭx'ĭstutosiuŏk, ak'omŭxĭstutoau.
Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

"But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For you devour the houses of widows, and for show make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation.
14 Kitaks'ksĭnipuau maka'pi ksĕsto'au ai'sĭnakix ki Pharisees, kitsiksĭs'tapokŏmotsitappiansuai! Nam'akex oko'auĕsts kitau'attopuaiau, ki kitaisŭmiksĭstapatsĭmoiikapuau: mĭs'tŭpkapii kitakoku'yisuai.
"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For you shut up the kingdom of heaven in front of people; for you do not enter in yourselves, neither do you allow those who are entering in to enter.
15 Kitaks'ksĭnipuau maka'pi ksĕsto'au ai'sĭnakix ki Pharisees, kitsiksĭs'tapokŏmotsitappiansuai kitotka'atau ksŏk'kum ki omŭk'sikĭmi kŏk'itokonoŏsi tuks'kŭmă matap'iuă mŏkĭtanĭs'tsitsitasi kanĭstsitsi'tawpi kitaumaitu'yĭssi, kanĭstŭm'ipuai ksĕsto'au Hell oku'yix kitak'anĭstsĭstokiaiĭstutoauau. (Geenna g1067)
"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For you travel around by sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much of a son of hell as yourselves. (Geenna g1067)
16 Kitaks'ksĭnipuau maka'pi ksĕsto'au kitsaps'tsiotŭpĭnŭkipuau, kitan'ipuau annŏk' akitup'ŭtauŭniuŏk omŭk'atoiapioyĭs matsikiu'ats, ki annŏk' akitŭp'ŭtauŭniuŏk omŭk'atoiapioyĭs ĭsto'tokuiĭxkĭm, aks'ĭstutsĭmaie!
"Woe to you, you blind guides, who say, 'Whoever swears by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gold of the temple, he is obligated.'
17 Kitŭt'tsapspuau, kitsaps'tsiipuau: Tsĭma' omŭk'o. Otoku'iĭxkĭm, ki omŭk'atoiapioyĭs annik' itatsĭm'mĭmmiik otoku'iĭxkĭm.
You blind fools. For which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctified the gold?
18 Ki annŏk' akitŭp'ŭtauŭniuŏk altar, matsikiu'ats; ki annŏk' akitŭp'ŭtauŭniuŏk kotŭk'sĭnni altar itokhĭts'tsipi, ai'aksĭstutsĭmaie.
'Whoever swears by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gift that is on it, he is obligated?'
19 Kitŭt'tsapspuau, kitsaps'tsipuau Tsĭma' omŭk'o, kotŭk'sĭnni, ki altar annŏk' itatsĭm'etsĭmŏk kotŭk'sĭnni?
You blind people. For which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifies the gift?
20 Annŏk' aiakitŭp'ŭtauŭniuŏk altar, itup'ŭtauŭniu altar ki mian'ĭsttokhĭtstsii.
He therefore who swears by the altar, swears by it, and by everything on it.
21 Ki annŏk' aiakitŭp'ŭtauŭniuŏk omŭk'atoiapioyĭs, itŭp'ŭtauŭniu omŭk'atoiapioyĭs ki annŏk' iko'attomŏk.
He who swears by the temple, swears by it, and by him who dwells in it.
22 Ki annŏk' aiakitŭp'ŭtauŭniuŏk spots' im, itŭp'ŭtauŭniu Ap'ĭstotokiuă otspiso'pŏtsis ki annŏk' itokhittaupiuŏk.
He who swears by heaven, swears by the throne of God, and by him who sits on it.

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For you tithe mint, dill, and cumin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the Law: justice, mercy, and faith. But you ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
24 Kits' apstsiotŭpĭnŭkipuau, kitai'soautsauau inŭx'soĭsksĭssi, ki kitaits'ĭssttimauau camel:

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For you clean the outside of the cup and the plate, but within they are full of extortion and self-indulgence.
26 Kitsaps'tsii Pharisee, matom'siitau pistots'im kos'ă ki saiĕtso'kosa mŏk'ŭtsitsiksixĭssi sauauts'i,
You blind Pharisee, first clean the inside of the cup and the plate, so that the outside may become clean also.

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For you are like whitened tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but inwardly are full of dead people's bones, and of all uncleanness.
28 Netoi'nitsiii ksĕsto'au kĭto'kŏmotsitappiĭnipuau matap'pi, ki pĭstots'im kitotuitskitsipuai ksĭs'tapokŏmotsitappiisĭnni ki sauum'itsitappiisĭnni.
Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to people, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

and say, 'If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.'
31 Ŭn'nikaie kit'auŭtanipuau, ksĕsto'auŭkauk anniks'isk matap'pixk initsixk' prophetsix o'kosoauax.
Therefore you testify to yourselves that you are children of those who killed the prophets.

Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers.
33 Pitseksĭnax, opĭx'exĭnasĭnna, Tsa'a kitakanĭstupĭs'tapixsattopats Hell ĭstokŏk'itsimani? (Geenna g1067)
You serpents, you offspring of vipers, how will you escape the judgment of hell? (Geenna g1067)

Therefore, look, I send to you prophets, wise people, and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify; and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city;

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I would have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not.
38 Sat'sĭk, Koko'auai nam'itaitsiu kĭt'skĭtomoko.
Look, your house is abandoned to you.
