Mathayo 5
1 Koro kane oneno oganda maduongʼ, nodhi e bath got mi obet piny. Jopuonjrene nobiro ire,
THEN seeing the multitudes, he went up into the mountain: and seating himself, his disciples came to him:
2 kendo nochako puonjogi. Nowachonegi niya,
and opening his mouth, he taught them, saying,
3 “Joma odhier gie chunygi gin joma ogwedhi, nimar pinyruodh polo en margi.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for their’s is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Joma ywak gin joma ogwedhi, nimar ibiro hoyogi.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Joma muol gin joma ogwedhi nimar piny nobed girkeni margi.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Ogwedh jogo makech kayo kendo riyo mar tim makare oloyo, nimar gibiro yiengʼ.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be fed to the full.
7 Joma kecho ji gin joma ogwedhi, nimar ibiro kechgi.
Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Jomaler gie chunygi gin joma ogwedhi, nimar ginine Nyasaye.
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Joma kelo kwe gin joma ogwedhi, nimar noluong-gi ni nyithind Nyasaye.
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Joma isando nikech tim makare gin joma ogwedhi, nimar pinyruodh polo en margi.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness sake: for their’s is the kingdom in heaven.
11 “Un joma ogwedhi ka ji yanyou kendo sandou kendo hangonu wach ni usetimo kit gik maricho duto nikech an.
Blessed are ye, when they shall revile and persecute you, and lying, speak every thing evil against you for my sake.
12 Beduru mamor kendo moil, nikech poku duongʼ e polo, nimar jonabi mane okwongonu bende negisando mana kamano.”
Rejoice and exult; for plenteous is your reward in the heavens: for just so they persecuted the prophets who went before you.
13 “Un e chumbi mar piny. To chumbi ka ndhathe orumo, to ere kaka dimiye obed gi ndhathe kendo? Koro onge konyruok mokelo, makmana ni ipuke oko kendo ji nyone piny gi tiendegi.
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt become insipid, with what can it be salted? it is of no farther use for any purpose, but to be cast out, and trodden under foot of men.
14 “Un e ler mar piny. Dala matin moger ewi thur ok nyal pandi.
Ye are the light of the world. A city cannot be hid that is situated on an eminence.
15 Kamano bende, ji ok mok taya bangʼe giume gi bakul. Kar timo kamano to gikete ewi rachungi taya kendo ochiwo ler ne ji duto mantiere ei ot.
Neither do men burn a lamp, and set it under a bushel, but on its stand; and it sheds light on all that are in the house.
16 Un bende timuru kamano. Neuru ni ler maru rieny e dier ji, mondo gine timbeu mabeyo kendo gipak Wuonu manie polo.
Just so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.
17 “Kik upar ni asebiro mondo aketh Chik kata Jonabi. Ok asebiro mondo akethgi, to asebiro mar chopogi.
Think not that I am come to destroy the law and the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 Awachonu adier ni nyaka chop chiengʼ ma polo gi piny nolal nono, onge nukta matinie mogik kata kido moro amora mar kalam manolal kuom Chik, nyaka gik moko duto chop kargi.
For I tell you assuredly, that till heaven and earth pass away, not one iota, or the smallest stroke of a letter, shall pass from the law, until all things shall be accomplished.
19 Ngʼato angʼata moketho achiel kuom chike matindoe mogik kuom Chikegi, kendo mopuonjo joma moko mondo otim kamano, nokaw kaka ngʼat matinie mogik e pinyruodh polo, to ngʼato angʼata maluwo kendo puonjo ji chikegi nokaw kaka ngʼama duongʼ e pinyruodh polo.
Whosoever therefore shall break one of the least of these commandments, and teach men so, he shall be accounted the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall practise, and teach them, he shall be reckoned great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 Nimar awachonu ni ka ok ber maru oyombo mano mar jo-Farisai gi mar jopuonj chik to ok unudonji e pinyruodh polo ngangʼ.
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness abounds more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
21 “Usewinjo ni ne owach ne joma chon ni, ‘Kik ineki, kendo ngʼato angʼata moneko ibiro ngʼadne bura.’
Ye have heard that it was said to the men of antient times, “Thou shalt do no murder;” and whosoever shall commit murder, shall be liable to the judgment:
22 Anto anyisou ni ngʼato angʼata ma mirima omako gi nyawadgi ibiro ngʼadne bura. Bende, ngʼato angʼata mowachone nyawadgi ni, ‘Raka,’ ma tiende ni ifuwo, nyaka yal e buch jo-Sanhedrin. To ngʼato angʼata mowacho ni, ‘Ifuwo nade,’ biro neno chandruok mar mach mar Gehena. (Geenna g1067)
but I say unto you, That every man who is angry with his brother without cause, shall be liable to the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the sanhedrim: but whosever shall say, Thou fool, shall be liable to be cast into hell fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 “Kuom mano, ka ichiwo michni e nyim kendo mar misango to iparo ka in kanyo ni nyawadu ni kodi gi wach,
If therefore thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
24 to we michnino piny kanyo e nyim kendo mar misango. Kuong idhi ilos kindi gi nyawadu; eka ibi ichiw michni.
leave there thy gift before the altar, and go: first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
25 “Los weche piyo piyo gi ngʼama odonjoni madwa teri e od bura. Tim kamano kapod un kode e yo, nono to onyalo keti e lwet jangʼad bura to jangʼad bura nyalo keti e lwet askari, kendo inyalo boli e od twech.
Be disposed to agree with thy prosecutor speedily, whilst thou art in the way with him to the bar; lest the prosecutor deliver thee up to the judge, and the judge commit thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
26 Awachoni adier ni ok niwuog oko nyaka ichul faini duto monego ichul ma ok orem kata ndururu.
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt in no wise come out from thence, till thou hast paid the last farthing.
27 “Usewinjo ni ne owach ni, ‘Kik iterri.’
Ye have heard that it was said to those of old, “Thou shalt not commit adultery:”
28 Anto anyisou ni ngʼato angʼata morango dhako gi gombo oseterore kode gi ei chunye.
but I say unto you, That every one who looketh upon a woman to lust after her, hath already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 Ka wangʼi ma korachwich miyo itimo richo to lodhe oko kendo iwite. Ber moloyo ka iwito fuon-ni achiel mar ringri moloyo ka ringri duto owiti e gehena. (Geenna g1067)
If then thine eye, the right, leads thee to offend, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is highly for thy advantage, that one of thy members be destroyed, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
30 Kamano bende ka lweti ma korachwich miyo itimo richo, to ngʼade oko iwite. Ber moloyo ka iwito fuon-ni achiel moloyo ka ringri duto odhi e gehena. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy right hand leads thee to offend, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is highly thy interest that one of thy members should be destroyed, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 “Osewachi ni, ngʼato angʼata moketho keny gi chiege nyaka miye barup weruok mar ketho keny.
It hath been said indeed, That whosoever will put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce:
32 An to awachonu ni ngʼato angʼata moriembo chiege nikech wach moro amora makmana richo mar terruok, miyo chiegeno donjo e richo mar terruok, kendo ngʼato angʼata mokendo dhako makamano bende donjo e richo mar terruok.
But I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except on account of whoredom, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is put away, committeth adultery.
33 “Usewinjo bende ni nowachi ni, ‘Kik iketh kwongʼruok, to riti kwongʼruok moro amora misetimone Ruoth Nyasaye.’
Again ye have heard that it was said to those of old, “Thou shalt not perjure thyself, but shalt perform to the Lord thine oaths:”
34 Anto anyisou ni kik ukwongʼru kata matin: Kik ukwongʼru gi polo nimar en e kom loch mar Nyasaye;
But I say to thee, Swear not at all; neither by the heaven; for it is the throne of God:
35 kata gi piny, nimar en e raten tiende; kata gi Jerusalem, nikech en e dala maduongʼ mar Ruoth Maduongʼ.
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 Kendo kik ukwongʼru gi wiu, nikech ok unyal loko yie wich achiel bedo marachar kata maratengʼ.
neither shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black.
37 Neuru ni ‘Ee maru’ obedo ‘Ee,’ kendo ‘Ooyo’ obedo ‘Ooyo.’ Gimoro amora mopogore gimaa en gima oa kuom ngʼat marach.
But let your discourse be, Yea, yea; No, no: for all addition to these is from the wicked one.
38 “Usewinjo ni nowachi ni, ‘Wangʼ kar wangʼ kendo lak kar lak.’
Ye have heard that it was said, “Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth:”
39 Anto anyisou ni kik utam ngʼat marach timo gima odwaro timo. Ka ngʼato othalo lembi ma korachwich to lokne komachielo bende,
but I say unto you, Resist not an injurious act; but whosoever shall smite thee on the right cheek, turn to him also the other.
40 kendo ka ngʼato dwaro yalo kodi mondo okaw lawi mar akor to wene kotini bende.
And if a man will prosecute thee, and take thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
41 Ka ngʼato ochuni mondo ikowe kilomita achiel gi nus to dhi kode kilomita adek.
And whosoever shall press thee for one mile, go with him two.
42 Ka ngʼato okwayi gimoro to miyeuru, kendo kik ilok kiti ne ngʼat madwaro ni ihole gimoro.
Give to him that asketh thee; and from him who wants to borrow of thee, turn not away.
43 “Usewinjo ni nowachi ni, ‘Her waduto jasiki to isin-go.’
Ye have heard that it hath been said, “Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.”
44 Anto awachonu kama: Heruru wasiku kendo lamuru ne joma sandou,
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who treat you insolently, and persecute you;
45 mondo eka ubed yawuot Wuonu manie polo. En omiyo chiengʼ mare wuok ni joma richo gi joma beyo machalre, kendo ooro koth ne joma kare gi joma ok kare.
that ye may be the children of your Father who is in heaven: for he causeth his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and tendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 Ka uhero mana joma oherou kende, to pok mane muyudo? Donge kata josol osuru bende timo mano?
For if ye love those who love you, what reward have you? do not even the publicans the same thing?
47 To ka umoso mana oweteu kende to en angʼo mutimo moloyo joma moko? Donge kata jopiny bende timo kamano?
And if ye embrace your brethren only, what do ye extraordinary? do not even the publicans so?
48 Kuom mano, beduru malongʼo chuth mana kaka Wuonu manie polo longʼo chuth.
Be ye therefore perfect, as your Father who is in heaven is perfect.
