Matayo 5
1 Che Yesu paŵauweni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakwesile pa chitumbi ni kutama. Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajaulile,
And having seen the multitudes, he went up onto the mountain. And when he sat down, his disciples came to him.
2 nombewo ŵatandite kwajiganya.
And having opened his mouth, he taught them, saying,
3 “Akwete upile ŵele ŵakwakulupilila Akunnungu, pakuŵa umwenye wa kwinani uli wao.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, because the kingdom of the heavens is theirs.
4 Akwete upile ŵele ŵakulilasika muntima, pakuŵa chatulaswe.
Blessed are those who mourn, because they will be comforted.
5 Akwete upile ŵele ŵakulitimalika, pakuŵa chapochele chilanga cha Akunnungu.
Blessed are the meek, because they will inherit the earth.
6 Akwete upile ŵele ŵajakwete sala ni njota ja kupanganya yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, pakuŵa Akunnungu chachajikutisya.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, because they will be filled.
7 Akwete upile ŵaali ni chanasa kwa ŵane, pakuŵa chachikolelwa chanasa.
Blessed are the merciful, because they will obtain mercy.
8 Akwete upile ŵaali ni ntima wambone, pakuŵa chachawona Akunnungu.
Blessed are the pure in heart, because they will see God.
9 Akwete upile ŵakwalumbanya ŵandu, pakuŵa ŵanyawo chachiŵilanjikwa ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu.
Blessed are the peacemakers, because they will be called sons of God.
10 Akwete upile ŵele ŵakusaukanga ligongo lya kupanganya yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, pakuŵa Umwenye wa kwinani uli wao.
Blessed are those who have been persecuted because of righteousness, because the kingdom of the heavens is theirs.
11 “Nsangalale ŵanyamwe ŵandu pachachintukananga ni kunnagasya ni kummechetela yangalumbana kwa ligongo lyangu.
Blessed are ye when they revile you, and persecute you, and say every evil word, being deceitful against you because of me.
12 Nsangalale ni kuchina pakuŵa mbote jenu jili jekulungwa kwinani. Pakuŵa iyoyo peyo ni iŵapanganyichisye ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵaŵapali nkanaŵe ŵanyamwe.
Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, because your reward is great in the heavens, for so they persecuted the prophets before you.
13 “Ŵanyamwe ndi njete ja pachilambo! Nambo njete jasoyesyaga kulasa kwakwe chintaje chichi kuti unonye wakwe uujile sooni? Ngajikufai kulikose, nambo jikwasikwa paasa ni kuliŵatikwa ni ŵandu.
Ye are the salt material of the earth. But if the salt material becomes ineffective, by what will it be salted? It is potent for nothing further, except to be cast outside and to be trodden down by men.
14 “Ŵanyamwe ndi lilanguka lya pachilambo! Musi wautaŵikwe pachanya chitumbi ngaukukomboleka kusisika.
Ye are the light of the world. A city setting on a hill cannot be hid,
15 Ŵandu ngakupamba lumuli ni kuluunichila ni lulo, nambo akuluŵika pachanya chindu chakuŵichila lumuli pakuti lwalanguchisye ŵaali nkati mo.
nor do they light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the lampstand, and it shines to all in the house.
16 Iyoyo peyo lilanguka lyenu likusachilwa lilanguchisye paujo pa ŵandu, kuti aiwone isambo yenu yambone, ni ŵakusye Atati ŵenu ŵaali kwinani.
Thus your light should shine before men, so that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father in the heavens.
17 “Nkaganisya kuti naiche kukugatyosya Malajisyo ni majiganyo ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu. Nganiika kukugatyosya nambo kukugamalichisya.
Think not that I came to abolish the law or the prophets. I came not to abolish, but to fulfill.
18 Ngunsalila isyene kuti, mpaka pelepo kwinani ni chilambo pachiimale kupita, ngapagwa namose nukuta pane chindu chamwana mu malajisyo chachichityochekwe mpaka imalile yose.
For truly I say to you, until the heaven and the earth pass away, one iota or one tittle will, no, not pass away from the law, until all things come to pass.
19 Nipele, mundu jwalijose jwangajitichisya namose likanyo limo mmalamulo ga mwana ga ni kwajiganya ŵane, jwelejo chaŵe jwannandi nnope mu Umwenye wa kwinani. Nambo jwelejo juchalikamulichisye ni kwajiganya ŵane, jwelejo chaŵe jwankulungwa mu Umwenye wa kwinani.
Whoever therefore may relax one of these least commandments, and may teach men so, he will be called least in the kingdom of the heavens. But whoever may do and may teach them, this man will be called great in the kingdom of the heavens.
20 Nipele ngunsalila kuti, iŵaga umbone wenu ngaupunda aula wa ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa ni Mafalisayo nganjinjila ng'oo mu Umwenye wa kwinani.
For I say to you, that unless your righteousness abounds more than of the scholars and Pharisees, ye will, no, not enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
21 “Mpilikene kuti ŵandu ŵa chiikala ŵasalilwe kuti, ‘Nkaulaga! Juchaulaje akusachilwa alamulikwe.’
Ye have heard that it was said to them in old times, Thou shall not murder, and whoever murders will be liable to the judgment.
22 Nambo une ngunsalila kuti, mundu jwalijose jwakuntumbilila mpwakwe, chiimbajile kulamulikwa. Jwakwachembulusya apwao chachajausya pa nkungulu. Ni jwakummilanga mpwao ‘Jwakuloŵela,’ chaŵajilwe kwinjila ku mooto wangasimika moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (Geenna g1067)
But I say to you, that every man who is angry at his brother without cause will be liable to the judgment, and whoever speaks an insult to his brother will be liable to the council, and whoever says, Foolish man, will be liable to the hell of fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 Nipele mwapelekaga mbopesi jenu pa chilisa ni papopo mwakumbuchilaga kuti apwenu ŵana umenyani nomwe,
If therefore thou should bring thy gift to the altar, and remember there that thy brother has anything against thee,
24 njileche mbopesi jenu mmbujo mwa chilisa, njaule kaje nkajilane ni mpwenu jo ni mmujeje ni kujityosya mbopesi jenu.
leave there thy gift before the altar, and go. First be reconciled to thy brother, and then, after coming, bring thy gift.
25 “Njilane chitema ni jwammagongo ndi mwitala nkanaŵe kwika ku nkungulu. Yapundaga pelepo jwammagongo jwenu chantaje mmakono mwa jwakulamula, nombe jwakulamula jo chantaje mmakono mwa jwangondo, nombejo champonye mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa.
Be agreeing with thine opponent quickly, while thou are with him on the way, lest the opponent deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the subordinate, and thou will be cast into prison.
26 Ngunsalila isyene kuti, ngantyoka mwelemo mpaka pachimmalisye kulipa mbiya ja mbesi.
Truly I say to thee, thou will, no, not come out from there, until thou have paid the last quadran.
27 “Mpilikene kuti, ŵandu ŵasalilwe, ‘Nkatenda chikululu!’
Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shall not commit adultery.
28 Nambo une ngunsalila, kila mundu juchannolechesye jwankongwe kwa kunsaka, amasile kutenda chikululu nawo muntima mwakwe.
But I say to you, that every man who looks on a woman to crave her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 Nipele, iŵaga liso lyenu lya kundyo likunneŵasya nlityosye ni kulijasila kwakutalika. Mmbaya nnope kupotesya chiŵalo chenu chimo cha pachiilu, kupunda chiilu chenu chose chiponyekwe pa mooto wangasimika, moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy right eye causes thee to stumble, remove it and cast it from thee, for it is advantageous for thee that one of thy body-parts should perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
30 Ni iŵaga nkono wenu wa kundyo ukunneŵasya, nkate nkaujase kwakutalika. Mmbaya kukwenu kupotesya chiŵalo chimo cha chiilu kupunda chiilu chose chiponyekwe pa mooto wangasimika moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy right hand causes thee to stumble, cut it off and cast it from thee, for it is advantageous for thee that one of thy body-parts should perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 “Iŵechetekwe kuti, ‘Jwakunleka ŵankwakwe, akusachilwa ŵaape talaka.’
And it was said, Whoever may divorce his wife, let him give her a divorce certificate.
32 Nambo une ngunsalila kuti, kila mundu jwakunleka ŵankwakwe, pangaŵa kwa ligongo lya chikululu, akwatenda atende chikululu, nombe jwannume alombelaga jwankongwe jwalesilwe, akutenda chikululu.
But I say to you, that whoever may divorce his wife apart from a matter of fornication, disposes her to commit adultery, and whoever may marry her who has been divorced commits adultery.
33 “Sooni mpilikene kuti ŵandu ŵa kalakala ŵasalilwe kuti, ‘Nkalumbila kwa unami, nambo mpanganye mpela imwalumbile kupanganya kwa Ambuje.’
Again, ye have heard that it was said to them in old times, Thou shall not swear falsely, but shall render to the Lord thine oaths.
34 Nambo une ngunsalila, nkalumbila ng'o, atamuno kwa kwinani, pakuŵa chili chitengu cha umwenye cha Akunnungu,
But I say to you, not to swear at all, neither by heaven, because it is the throne of God,
35 atamuno kulumbila kwa chilambo, pakuŵa chili chitengu chao cha kuŵichila makongolo, atamuno kulumbila kwa musi wa Yelusalemu, pakuŵa uli musi wa Mwenye jwankulu.
nor by the earth, because it is the footstool of his feet, nor by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King.
36 Atamuno nkalumbila kwa ntwe wenu, pakuŵa ngankukombola kupanganya luumbo lumo kuŵa lweswela atamuno lwepiliu.
Neither shall thou swear by thy head, because thou cannot make one hair white or black.
37 Mwatiji, ‘Elo’, jiŵe ‘Elo’, ni mwatiji, ‘Ngwamba’, jiŵe ‘Ngwamba’. Chachili chose cha kupunda yeleyo chikutyoka kwa jwangalumbana jula.
But let your word be, Yes, yes, No, no. And anything beyond these is from evil.
38 “Mpilikene kuti isasilwe, ‘Liso kwa liso, ni Liino kwa liino.’
Ye have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.
39 Nambo une ngunsalila kuti, nkaliuchisya kwa jwangalumbana. Mundu jwalijose juchampute lijanda pa lijeje lya kundyo, mwagalauchisye ni lijakwe.
But I say to you, not to resist what is troublesome, but whoever will strike thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40 Mundu anjausyaga ku nkungulu kukummechetela magambo melepe ansumule lishati lyenu, munnechele ni likoti lyenu.
And to the man who wants to sue thee, and take away thy coat, thou shall leave him thy cloak also.
41 Mundu jwalijose ankanganichisyaga njigale nsigo wao njaule nawo kilomita jimo, njende nawo kilomita siŵili.
And whoever will draft thee for one mile, go thou with him two.
42 Jwakummenda mumpe, nombe jwakusaka kunkongola, ngasimwajima.
Give to him who asks thee, and turn thou not away from him who wants to borrow from thee.
43 “Mpilikene kuti isasilwe, ‘Munnonyele njenu ni munchime jwammagongo jwenu.’
Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shall love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.
44 Nambo une ngunsalila, mwanonyele ŵammagongo ŵenu ni mwapopelele aŵala ŵakunlagasya,
But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,
45 kuti mme ŵanache ŵa Atati ŵenu ŵaali kwinani. Pakuŵa akwalanguchisya lyuŵa lyakwe ŵandu ŵangalumbana ni ŵambone ni kwanyelela ula ŵandu ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu ni ŵangalumbana.
so that ye may become sons of your Father in the heavens, because he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and makes rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
46 Ana chimpate mbote chi mwanonyelaga pe ŵakunnonyela ŵanyamwe? Ngwamba! Pakuŵa ŵakukumbikanya nsongo nombe akutenda iyoyo?
For if ye love those who love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the tax collectors the same?
47 Iŵaga nkwakomasyaga achapwenu pe, ana ntesile chapi chakupunda kwapunda ŵane? Ana ngati ŵangakwamanyilila Akunnungu akutenda iyoyo.
And if ye only greet your friends, what do ye extra? Do not even the tax collectors this way?
48 Nipele mme ŵautindimisyo mu ntima kwati mpela Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani yatite kuŵa jwautindimisyo.
Ye therefore shall be perfect, even as your Father in the heavens is perfect.
