Matiyu 6
1 Wierli ni tie zizi mbi ni ndi, ndu ba na toh na. Kaa tie ni ndu tie mbi u shulu na nno yi idii ndu mbi na.
“Be careful not to give to the needy in front of others to be seen by them, otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 Tomba, bita tie zizi bi kana d'bbu ni ndi na, bi mrla ndi ba tie toki ni tra Rji mba ni tie nkon u migbu, ndu ndi gbre ba san Njanjimu, me hla yiwu, ba rliga kpa dii mba ye.
So when yoʋ give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before yoʋ, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
3 Bita ni tie kpie zizi, na ndu iwo ko'ta toh ikpie wa iwo rli si tie a na.
But when yoʋ give to the needy, do not let yoʋr left hand know what yoʋr right hand is doing,
4 U ndu zizi mbi nihe rii'rii'; u itie mbi wa ani toh ni mbu'a ani hanyi dii mbi kima.
so that yoʋr giving may be in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will himself reward yoʋ openly.
5 U bitani tie aduwa, na tie to bi mrla ndi na. Biki ba ngri tie aduwa ni zande ni tra Rji mba ni fron nkon bi mi gbu, adi ndu ndi ka don to mba. Njanjimu, me wa yiwu, ba kpa dii mba ye.
“When yoʋ pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and at the street corners so that they may be seen by others. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
6 To biyi, bita ni tie aduwa, bika rii hi mi tra mbi, ndi tro' nkontra mbi, ndi tie aduwa hi ni tie mbi wa ahe rii'rii', u wawu tie mbi wa ani toh rii'rii', ani nnoyi dii mbi ni rira me.
But when yoʋ pray, go into yoʋr inner room, shut yoʋr door, and pray to yoʋr Father who is in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will reward yoʋ openly.
7 Bita ni tie aduwa, bikana rju tre towa bi mrla ndi ba tie na. Ba'ki baya' di gbubu tre mba ni ndu ba wo ba.
“And when you pray, do not babble on repetitiously like the Gentiles do, for they think they will be heard because of their use of many words.
8 Tomba bika na he to u mba na. 'E tiembi toh guci yiwu ikpie wa bi mye a.
Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
9 “Bita' tie aduwa toyi; Tre: Iti mbu wa a he shulua, ndu san me tsratsra me,
Pray then like this: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be yoʋr name.
10 mulki ndu ye, ikpie wa u son ndu ba tiewu ni ngbugblu'a nawa ba tiewu ni shulu'a.
Yoʋr kingdom come. Yoʋr will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Nnota rli u vi luwa.
Give us this day our daily bread.
12 U latre mbu uka uru hle tawu, towa kie uruhle ni bari'a.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 Ndi na nji ta hi wrji u tsra-toh na, jbu ta rjuni wo bi brji(meme). Mulki mba ngbengble, mba girma(babran) bahi ume kakle'. Ameh
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yoʋrs is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
14 “E bita wru latre ndi hle bawu, itie mbi ni shulu ni wruhle yiwu ngame.
For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
15 “Biti na wru latre ndi hle bawu na, u tie mbi na wruhle yiwu ngame na.
But if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
16 Ngarli, bita ni' vu nyu, na ya gbododo me' na bi mrla ndi ba tie na. 'E' ba trso shishi mba ni ndi toki ndu ba to di baki vu nyu. Njanjimu, me hla yiwu, ba rliga kpa dii mba ye.
“When you fast, do not be gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces so that others will see that they are fasting. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
17 To, biyi', bita si vu nyu, ngla shishi mbi di gban nye ni tu mbi.
But when yoʋ fast, anoint yoʋr head and wash yoʋr face,
18 Ndu ndi na toh di bi ki vu nyu na; u tie mbi wa a he rii'rii' 'a, nda ni toh ni rii'rii' 'a ani hanyi dii mbi.
so that no one will see that yoʋ are fasting except yoʋr Father who is in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will reward yoʋ.
19 Na rii kpi zi ni ngbungblu yi na, iwrji wa imra ni rli ba ko wa ba kuklu nda tie meme ko bi y'bi ba y'ra bubuwa na y'bi ba;
“Do not store up treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
20 zi kpi mbi ni shuhe, ni bubu wa imra, ko kuklu' na kpa tie meme na ni wrji wa bi y'bi bana y'ra rii mi nda y'bi bana.
But store up treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
21 “E iwrji wa ikpie mbi he'a, niki ki isron mbi ni he ngame.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 “Ikpan u kpa ahi shishi. Shishi mbi nita bii, u kpa' mbi wawuu ani shu ni kpan.
“The lamp of the body is the eye. If then yoʋr eye is clear, yoʋr whole body will be full of light.
23 U shishi mbi nita tie me'me', ikpa mbi wawuu ni kpukpa bwu yi. U ani ta ndi ikpan wa ahe ni mi mbi ahi bwu, to ibran bwu kimaa ni he bitan!
But if yoʋr eye is bad, yoʋr whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within yoʋ is darkness, how great is the darkness!
24 Indi ri na'toh nji tikoh harli na, 'e' ani son ri mba nda kran rimaa, ko ka' y'me ni ri nda kama ni rimaa. Bina' mrli koh Rji mba u mammon na.
“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
25 To, mi hla yiwu, na tamne ni tu son ngbunblu mbi na, illa wa bi rli ko ikpie wa bi so, ko ni kpa'mbi, inklon wabi sru'a na. He ni sisren na zan birli na, ka ikpa mbi na zan ikpi na?
“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat and what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
26 “To cincen' bi bwua, bana cu ko can ko zi kpie ni wron na, naki me itiembi ni shulu ni nno mba rli. Bina nna ba na?
Look at the birds of the sky: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
27 “Ahi nha mbi ni tu tamre ma ani to nzu gbron ma ko tsame?
Which of you by being anxious can add a single moment to yoʋr span of life?
28 “U bi ta'mre ngye ni tie ikpie bi sru? To kunkron bi miji wa ba'gbron hama ni ron ko ni ta' rjurju.
And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: They do not toil or spin,
29 Me hla yiwu sulema me ni gbugbu kpi ma mba he wo ma me na bii mla ni ri biyi na.
yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these.
30 Zizanyi, u Rji wa a tie giga bi miji ni nkpon bii wa, luwa ba he u mble ba mmo hi ni ba, a na sru kpi kayi zan ba na, ha'yi biyi bi tsitsa sron.
Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 “Tomba bika na tamre di tre, 'Ayi ngye mi rli' ka ahi ngye mi so na? 'Ka 'ahi ngye me sru ka' kpa'?'
Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘What will we wear?’
32 “E a bi wa bana toh Rji mba ba wa bi kpi biyi. E itie mbi u shulu toh di bi wa ikpi biyi.
For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
33 Wa mulki Rji ni mumla mba inkon matsratsra rli u mbru kpi biyi ba nno nha yiwu.
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
34 Tomba, na ta'mre ni tu mble na, imble he ni kpima u wa bi tamrea. iya' u vi ri mlau.
“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious about its own matters. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
