Matayo 5
1 Che Yesu paŵauweni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakwesile pa chitumbi ni kutama. Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajaulile,
And seeing the multitudes, he went up into the mountain: and when he had sat down, his disciples came unto him:
2 nombewo ŵatandite kwajiganya.
and he opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
3 “Akwete upile ŵele ŵakwakulupilila Akunnungu, pakuŵa umwenye wa kwinani uli wao.
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Akwete upile ŵele ŵakulilasika muntima, pakuŵa chatulaswe.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Akwete upile ŵele ŵakulitimalika, pakuŵa chapochele chilanga cha Akunnungu.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Akwete upile ŵele ŵajakwete sala ni njota ja kupanganya yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, pakuŵa Akunnungu chachajikutisya.
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Akwete upile ŵaali ni chanasa kwa ŵane, pakuŵa chachikolelwa chanasa.
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Akwete upile ŵaali ni ntima wambone, pakuŵa chachawona Akunnungu.
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Akwete upile ŵakwalumbanya ŵandu, pakuŵa ŵanyawo chachiŵilanjikwa ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu.
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall 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 they that have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Nsangalale ŵanyamwe ŵandu pachachintukananga ni kunnagasya ni kummechetela yangalumbana kwa ligongo lyangu.
Blessed are ye when [men] shall reproach you, and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Nsangalale ni kuchina pakuŵa mbote jenu jili jekulungwa kwinani. Pakuŵa iyoyo peyo ni iŵapanganyichisye ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵaŵapali nkanaŵe ŵanyamwe.
Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were 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 of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.
14 “Ŵanyamwe ndi lilanguka lya pachilambo! Musi wautaŵikwe pachanya chitumbi ngaukukomboleka kusisika.
Ye are the light of the world. A city set 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.
Neither do [men] light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the stand; and it shineth unto all that are in the house.
16 Iyoyo peyo lilanguka lyenu likusachilwa lilanguchisye paujo pa ŵandu, kuti aiwone isambo yenu yambone, ni ŵakusye Atati ŵenu ŵaali kwinani.
Even so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
17 “Nkaganisya kuti naiche kukugatyosya Malajisyo ni majiganyo ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu. Nganiika kukugatyosya nambo kukugamalichisya.
Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets: I came not to destroy, 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 verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the law, till all things be accomplished.
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.
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
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 unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed [the righteousness] of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
21 “Mpilikene kuti ŵandu ŵa chiikala ŵasalilwe kuti, ‘Nkaulaga! Juchaulaje akusachilwa alamulikwe.’
Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of 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 unto you, that every one who is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council; and whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of the hell of fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 Nipele mwapelekaga mbopesi jenu pa chilisa ni papopo mwakumbuchilaga kuti apwenu ŵana umenyani nomwe,
If therefore thou art offering thy gift at the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught 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 thy way, first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer 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.
Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art with him in the way; lest haply the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
26 Ngunsalila isyene kuti, ngantyoka mwelemo mpaka pachimmalisye kulipa mbiya ja mbesi.
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the last farthing.
27 “Mpilikene kuti, ŵandu ŵasalilwe, ‘Nkatenda chikululu!’
Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
28 Nambo une ngunsalila, kila mundu juchannolechesye jwankongwe kwa kunsaka, amasile kutenda chikululu nawo muntima mwakwe.
but I say unto you, that every one that looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already 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 causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members 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 causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body go into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 “Iŵechetekwe kuti, ‘Jwakunleka ŵankwakwe, akusachilwa ŵaape talaka.’
It was said also, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
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 unto you, that every one that putteth away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, maketh her an adulteress: and whosoever shall marry her when she is put away committeth 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 of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
34 Nambo une ngunsalila, nkalumbila ng'o, atamuno kwa kwinani, pakuŵa chili chitengu cha umwenye cha Akunnungu,
but I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by the heaven, for 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, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
36 Atamuno nkalumbila kwa ntwe wenu, pakuŵa ngankukombola kupanganya luumbo lumo kuŵa lweswela atamuno lwepiliu.
Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not 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 speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: and whatsoever is more than these is of the evil [one].
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 unto you, Resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smiteth 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 if any man would go to law with thee, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
41 Mundu jwalijose ankanganichisyaga njigale nsigo wao njaule nawo kilomita jimo, njende nawo kilomita siŵili.
And whosoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him twain.
42 Jwakummenda mumpe, nombe jwakusaka kunkongola, ngasimwajima.
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
43 “Mpilikene kuti isasilwe, ‘Munnonyele njenu ni munchime jwammagongo jwenu.’
Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy:
44 Nambo une ngunsalila, mwanonyele ŵammagongo ŵenu ni mwapopelele aŵala ŵakunlagasya,
but I say unto you, Love your enemies, and pray for them that 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.
that ye may be sons of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust.
46 Ana chimpate mbote chi mwanonyelaga pe ŵakunnonyela ŵanyamwe? Ngwamba! Pakuŵa ŵakukumbikanya nsongo nombe akutenda iyoyo?
For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47 Iŵaga nkwakomasyaga achapwenu pe, ana ntesile chapi chakupunda kwapunda ŵane? Ana ngati ŵangakwamanyilila Akunnungu akutenda iyoyo.
And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the Gentiles the same?
48 Nipele mme ŵautindimisyo mu ntima kwati mpela Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani yatite kuŵa jwautindimisyo.
Ye therefore shall be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
