Matthai 5
1 A hmuh neh hlangping taengah tlang la luei tih a ngol vaengah anih te a hnukbang rhoek loh a paan uh.
And seeing the multitudes, He went up into the mountain; and having sat down, His disciples came to Him.
2 Te vaengah a ka a ong tih amih a thuituen.
And having opened His mouth He taught them, saying;
3 Mueihla khodaeng rhoek tah a yoethen uh, vaan ram te amih kah la om.
Blessed are the poor in spirit: because the kingdom of the heavens is theirs.
4 Aka nguek rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih te a hloep uh ni.
Blessed are the meek, because they shall inherit the earth.
5 Muelhtuet rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih long ni diklai a pang eh.
Blessed are they that mourn: because they shall be comforted.
6 Duengnah te aka hal tih aka pong rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih tah hah uh ni.
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: because they shall be filled.
7 Hlang aka rhen rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih te a rhen uh ni.
Blessed are the merciful: because they shall receive mercy.
8 thinko aka caih rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih long ni Pathen te a hmuh eh.
Blessed are the pure in heart: because they shall see God.
9 Rhoepnah la aka om rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih ni Pathen kah ca rhoek la a khue uh eh.
Blessed are the peacemakers: because they shall be called the sons of God.
10 Duengnah kongah a hnaemtaek rhoek tah a yoethen uh, vaan ram te amih kah ni.
Blessed are they, who are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for the kingdom of the heavens is theirs.
11 Kai kongah nangmih te thuithet tih, hnaemtaek tih laithaethui rhoek loh nangmih soah a thae la boeih n' thui uh vaengah na yoethenuh.
Blessed are ye when they may despise you, and shall persecute you, and may say all evil against you, falsifying, for my sake.
12 “Omngaih uh lamtah hlampan uh. Vaan ah nangmih kah thapang muep om. Nangmih hlankah tonghma rhoek khaw a hnaemtaek uh rhoe.
Rejoice, and he exceedingly glad: because your reward is great in the heavens: for in this manner they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
13 Nangmih tah diklai lungkaeh la na om uh. Tedae lungkaeh he a dap atah, ba nen lae a al sak eh? Phawn a voeih tih hlang loh a taelh pawt atah coeng voel pawh.
Ye are the salt of the earth; and if the salt may lose its savor, in what shall it be salted? It is yet without value, except having been cast out, to be trodden under feet by the people.
14 Nangmih tah Diklai vangnah la na om uh. Tlang soah a thoong khopuei tah khuup thai tlaih pawh.
Ye are the light of the world. A city sitting on a mountain is unable to be hidden.
15 Hmaiim te a tok uh tih voh hmuiah a khueh uh moenih. Hmaitung soah ni a khueh tih im khuikah rhoek te boeih a tue.
Neither do they light a candle, and place it under a bushel, but on the candlestick; and it shineth to all who are in the house.
16 Nangmih kah vangnah khaw hlang hmaiah sae tangloeng saeh. Te daengah ni nangmih kah khoboe then te a hmuh uh vetih, vaan kah na pa te a thangpom uh eh.
Let your light so shine before the people, in order that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.
17 Olkhueng neh tonghma rhoek ol he phae hamla ka lo tila poek uh boeh, phae ham pawt tih soep sak ham ni ka lo.
Think not that I came to destroy the law of the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfill.
18 Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, diklai neh vaan a khum hlan khuiah, olkhueng te boeih a soep hlan khuiah, catham khat neh a dek khat pataeng hmata mahpawh.
For truly I say unto you, Until heaven and earth may pass away, one jot or tittle can not pass from the law, until all things may be accomplished.
19 Te dongah he rhoek kah olpaek rhoek a diknoi khat ca khaw a phae tangkhuet tih hlang aka thuituen te tah vaan ram ah a dikhnawn la a khue ni. Tedae olpaek bangla a saii tih aka thuituen te tah vaan ram ah tanglue la a khue ni.
Therefore if any one may break one of the least of these commandments, and so teach the people, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of the heavens: but whosoever may do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of the heavens.
20 Nangmih taengah kan thui, cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek kah a voel ah duengnah loh nangmih te m'pueh pawt atah, vaan ram ah na kun kolla na om uh mahpawt nim.
For I say unto you, that if your righteousness may not abound more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you can not enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
21 Khosuen kah a thui te na yaak uh coeng. Hlang ngawn boeh, aka ngawn te tah laitloeknah om kuekluek saeh.
You have heard that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not murder; and whosoever may murder shall be in danger of the judgment;
22 Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, a manuca taengah kosi aka hong boeih tah laitloeknah om kuekluek saeh, a manuca te hlangyoe aka ti nah te khaw khoboei taengla pha kuekluek saeh. Hlang ang la aka thui te khaw hell hmai la pha kuekluek saeh. (Geenna g1067)
but I say unto you that every one being angry with his brother, shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever may say to his brother, Thou scoundrel, shall be in danger of the council; and whosoever may say, Thou fool, shall be liable unto a hell of fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 Te dongah hmueihtuk la na kutdoe na khuen vaengah, na manuca loh nang soah khat khat ngaihlih a om te na poek atah,
Therefore if you may bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,
24 Na kutdoe te hmueihtuk hmai ah pak hlah. Na manuca taengah cet lamhma lamtah moeithen dae, te phoeiah cet lamtah na kutdoe te pae.
leave there your gift before the altar, and go, first be reconciled to your brother, then having come offer your gift.
25 Longpueng ah amah neh na om li vaengah a loe la na kocaelh te ko a hlawt ham saii laeh. Namah te kocaelh loh laitloekkung taengla n'thak ve. Te vaengah laitloekkung loh tueihyoeih taengla n'thak vetih thongim la n'hla ve.
Be reconciled with your adversary quickly, while you are in the way with him; lest the adversary may deliver you to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you may be cast into prison.
26 Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, a hnukkhueng pekhat hil na thuung hlan atah te lamkah na loeih mahpawh.
Truly I say unto you, You can not go out from thence until you have paid the last farthing.
27 Samphaih boeh a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
You have heard that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery.
28 Tedae nangmih taengah ka thui. Huta te a hue neh aka dan boeih tah, a thinko ah a samphaih puei oepsoeh coeng.
But I say unto you that every one looking on a woman in order to lust after her hath already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 Na bantang mik loh nang n' khah atah te te koeih lamtah namah lamloh voei. Na pumrho dongkah pakhat a poci akhaw na pum boeih hell la a voeih pawt te nang hamla rhoei bet. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not that thy whole body may go away into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 “A yuu aka hla loh yuhlaknah te a yuu taengah pae saeh,” a ti.
And it was said, Whosoever may send away his wife, let him give her a divorcement.
32 Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui coeng. Cukhalnah olka voel ah a yuu aka hla boeih loh a yuu te samphaih sak ham a saii. Te dongah a hlak tangtae aka yunah te khaw samphaih van.
But I say unto you, that every one sending away his wife, except on account of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever may marry her who has been cast off commits adultery.
33 Khosuen kah a thui te koep na yaak coeng, basa boeh saw. Tedae na olhlo te boeipa taengah na thuung ni.
Again you have heard that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shall perform unto the Lord thine oaths.
34 Tedae nangmih taengah toemngam loengloeng boeh ka ti. Vaan nen khaw toemngam boeh. Te tah Pathen kah ngolkhoel ni.
But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, because it is the throne of God;
35 Diklai nen khaw toemngam boeh. Te tah amah kah kho kah khotloeng ni. Jerusalem nen khaw toemngam boeh, te tah manghai boei kah khopuei ni.
nor by the earth, because it is the footstool of His feet; neither by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King.
36 Na lu nen khaw toemngam boeh. Sam pakhat pataeng a bok neh a muem la na saii thai moenih.
Neither swear by thy head, because thou art unable to make one hair white or black.
37 Te dongah nangmih ol te ue atah ue, pawh atah pawh la om saeh. Tedae he rhoek kah a pueh tah a thae hno lamkah aka thoeng hno ni.
But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay; but that which aboundeth more than these is of the evil one.
38 “Mik ham te mik, no ham te no,” a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.
39 Nangmih taengah kan thui, a thae te kamkaih boeh, tedae bantang kah na kamrhuh aka bael te pakhat ben khaw a taengla hooi pah.
But I say unto you, Resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smites thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also:
40 Nang toe ham neh na angki loh aka ngaih te himbai khaw hlah pah thil.
to him wishing to prosecute thee at law, and take away thy coat, let him have the cloak also.
41 Nang meng khat aka tanolh te, amah te meng nit khaw caeh puei.
Whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him two.
42 Nang taengah aka bih te pae. Nang taengah puu hamla aka ngaih te khaw bal sak boeh.
Give to the one asking thee, and do not turn away from the one wishing to borrow from thee.
43 “Na imben te lungnah, na rhal te thiinah,” a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
You have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor and hate thine enemy.
44 Tedae kai loh nangmih taengah kan thui, na rhal rhoek te lungnah lamtah, nangmih aka hnaemtaek rhoek ham thangthui pauh.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies with a divine love, bless those who curse you and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you:
45 Te daengah ni vaan ah na Pa kah a ca rhoek la na om uh eh. Amah kah khomik te a thae neh a then boeih soah a thoeng sak tih, aka dueng khaw, halang khaw rhotui neh a sul thil.
in order that you may be the sons of your Father who is in the heavens: because He raises up His sun on the wicked and on the good, and rains on the righteous and on the unrighteous.
46 Nangmih aka lungnah te na lungnah uh atah balae thapang na dang eh? Mangmucoi rhoek long pataeng te te a saii uh van moenih a?
For if you love those that love you, what reward have ye? because the publicans also do the same.
47 Na manuca bueng na toidal uh koinih balae a pueh na saii uh tloe, namtom rhoek long khaw te te a saii uh moenih a?
If you salute your brethren only, what do ye more abundantly? do not the heathens also the same thing?
48 Te dongah vaan kah na Pa loh lungcuei la a om bangla nangmih khaw lungcuei la om uh.
Therefore ye shall be perfect, as your Father who is in heaven is perfect.
