Matthew 5
1 When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain and sat down. His disciples came to Him,
anantaraM sa jananivahaM nirIkSya bhUdharopari vrajitvA samupaviveza|
2 and He began to teach them, saying:
tadAnIM ziSyeSu tasya samIpamAgateSu tena tebhya eSA kathA kathyAJcakre|
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
abhimAnahInA janA dhanyAH, yataste svargIyarAjyam adhikariSyanti|
4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
khidyamAnA manujA dhanyAH, yasmAt te sAntvanAM prApsanti|
5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
namrA mAnavAzca dhanyAH, yasmAt te medinIm adhikariSyanti|
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
dharmmAya bubhukSitAH tRSArttAzca manujA dhanyAH, yasmAt te paritarpsyanti|
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
kRpAlavo mAnavA dhanyAH, yasmAt te kRpAM prApsyanti|
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
nirmmalahRdayA manujAzca dhanyAH, yasmAt ta IzcaraM drakSyanti|
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
melayitAro mAnavA dhanyAH, yasmAt ta Izcarasya santAnatvena vikhyAsyanti|
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
dharmmakAraNAt tADitA manujA dhanyA, yasmAt svargIyarAjye teSAmadhikaro vidyate|
11 Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
yadA manujA mama nAmakRte yuSmAn nindanti tADayanti mRSA nAnAdurvvAkyAni vadanti ca, tadA yuyaM dhanyAH|
12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets before you.
tadA Anandata, tathA bhRzaM hlAdadhvaJca, yataH svarge bhUyAMsi phalAni lapsyadhve; te yuSmAkaM purAtanAn bhaviSyadvAdino'pi tAdRg atADayan|
13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
yuyaM medinyAM lavaNarUpAH, kintu yadi lavaNasya lavaNatvam apayAti, tarhi tat kena prakAreNa svAduyuktaM bhaviSyati? tat kasyApi kAryyasyAyogyatvAt kevalaM bahiH prakSeptuM narANAM padatalena dalayituJca yogyaM bhavati|
14 You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
yUyaM jagati dIptirUpAH, bhUdharopari sthitaM nagaraM guptaM bhavituM nahi zakSyati|
15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
aparaM manujAH pradIpAn prajvAlya droNAdho na sthApayanti, kintu dIpAdhAroparyyeva sthApayanti, tena te dIpA gehasthitAn sakalAn prakAzayanti|
16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
yena mAnavA yuSmAkaM satkarmmANi vilokya yuSmAkaM svargasthaM pitaraM dhanyaM vadanti, teSAM samakSaM yuSmAkaM dIptistAdRk prakAzatAm|
17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them.
ahaM vyavasthAM bhaviSyadvAkyaJca loptum AgatavAn, itthaM mAnubhavata, te dve loptuM nAgatavAn, kintu saphale karttum Agatosmi|
18 For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
aparaM yuSmAn ahaM tathyaM vadAmi yAvat vyomamedinyo rdhvaMso na bhaviSyati, tAvat sarvvasmin saphale na jAte vyavasthAyA ekA mAtrA bindurekopi vA na lopsyate|
19 So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
tasmAt yo jana etAsAm AjJAnAm atikSudrAm ekAjJAmapI laMghate manujAMJca tathaiva zikSayati, sa svargIyarAjye sarvvebhyaH kSudratvena vikhyAsyate, kintu yo janastAM pAlayati, tathaiva zikSayati ca, sa svargIyarAjye pradhAnatvena vikhyAsyate|
20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
aparaM yuSmAn ahaM vadAmi, adhyApakaphirUzimAnavAnAM dharmmAnuSThAnAt yuSmAkaM dharmmAnuSThAne nottame jAte yUyam IzvarIyarAjyaM praveSTuM na zakSyatha|
21 You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not murder’ and ‘Anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’
aparaJca tvaM naraM mA vadhIH, yasmAt yo naraM hanti, sa vicArasabhAyAM daNDArho bhaviSyati, pUrvvakAlInajanebhya iti kathitamAsIt, yuSmAbhirazrAvi|
22 But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ will be subject to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell. (Geenna g1067)
kintvahaM yuSmAn vadAmi, yaH kazcit kAraNaM vinA nijabhrAtre kupyati, sa vicArasabhAyAM daNDArho bhaviSyati; yaH kazcicca svIyasahajaM nirbbodhaM vadati, sa mahAsabhAyAM daNDArho bhaviSyati; punazca tvaM mUDha iti vAkyaM yadi kazcit svIyabhrAtaraM vakti, tarhi narakAgnau sa daNDArho bhaviSyati| (Geenna g1067)
23 So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,
ato vedyAH samIpaM nijanaivedye samAnIte'pi nijabhrAtaraM prati kasmAccit kAraNAt tvaM yadi doSI vidyase, tadAnIM tava tasya smRti rjAyate ca,
24 leave your gift there before the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.
tarhi tasyA vedyAH samIpe nijanaivaidyaM nidhAya tadaiva gatvA pUrvvaM tena sArddhaM mila, pazcAt Agatya nijanaivedyaM nivedaya|
25 Reconcile quickly with your adversary, while you are still on the way to court. Otherwise, he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison.
anyaJca yAvat vivAdinA sArddhaM vartmani tiSThasi, tAvat tena sArddhaM melanaM kuru; no cet vivAdI vicArayituH samIpe tvAM samarpayati vicArayitA ca rakSiNaH sannidhau samarpayati tadA tvaM kArAyAM badhyethAH|
26 Truly I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.
tarhi tvAmahaM taththaM bravImi, zeSakapardake'pi na parizodhite tasmAt sthAnAt kadApi bahirAgantuM na zakSyasi|
27 You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’
aparaM tvaM mA vyabhicara, yadetad vacanaM pUrvvakAlInalokebhyaH kathitamAsIt, tad yUyaM zrutavantaH;
28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
kintvahaM yuSmAn vadAmi, yadi kazcit kAmataH kAJcana yoSitaM pazyati, tarhi sa manasA tadaiva vyabhicaritavAn|
29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. (Geenna g1067)
tasmAt tava dakSiNaM netraM yadi tvAM bAdhate, tarhi tannetram utpATya dUre nikSipa, yasmAt tava sarvvavapuSo narake nikSepAt tavaikAGgasya nAzo varaM| (Geenna g1067)
30 And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to depart into hell. (Geenna g1067)
yadvA tava dakSiNaH karo yadi tvAM bAdhate, tarhi taM karaM chittvA dUre nikSipa, yataH sarvvavapuSo narake nikSepAt ekAGgasya nAzo varaM| (Geenna g1067)
31 It has also been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’
uktamAste, yadi kazcin nijajAyAM parityakttum icchati, tarhi sa tasyai tyAgapatraM dadAtu|
32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, brings adultery upon her. And he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
kintvahaM yuSmAn vyAharAmi, vyabhicAradoSe na jAte yadi kazcin nijajAyAM parityajati, tarhi sa tAM vyabhicArayati; yazca tAM tyaktAM striyaM vivahati, sopi vyabhicarati|
33 Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’
punazca tvaM mRSA zapatham na kurvvan IzcarAya nijazapathaM pAlaya, pUrvvakAlInalokebhyo yaiSA kathA kathitA, tAmapi yUyaM zrutavantaH|
34 But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;
kintvahaM yuSmAn vadAmi, kamapi zapathaM mA kArSTa, arthataH svarganAmnA na, yataH sa Izvarasya siMhAsanaM;
35 or by the earth, for it is His footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
pRthivyA nAmnApi na, yataH sA tasya pAdapIThaM; yirUzAlamo nAmnApi na, yataH sA mahArAjasya purI;
36 Nor should you swear by your head, for you cannot make a single hair white or black.
nijazironAmnApi na, yasmAt tasyaikaM kacamapi sitam asitaM vA karttuM tvayA na zakyate|
37 Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ Anything more comes from the evil one.
aparaM yUyaM saMlApasamaye kevalaM bhavatIti na bhavatIti ca vadata yata ito'dhikaM yat tat pApAtmano jAyate|
38 You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’
aparaM locanasya vinimayena locanaM dantasya vinimayena dantaH pUrvvaktamidaM vacanaJca yuSmAbhirazrUyata|
39 But I tell you not to resist an evil person. If someone slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also;
kintvahaM yuSmAn vadAmi yUyaM hiMsakaM naraM mA vyAghAtayata| kintu kenacit tava dakSiNakapole capeTAghAte kRte taM prati vAmaM kapolaJca vyAghoTaya|
40 if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well;
aparaM kenacit tvayA sArdhdaM vivAdaM kRtvA tava paridheyavasane jighRtite tasmAyuttarIyavasanamapi dehi|
41 and if someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
yadi kazcit tvAM krozamekaM nayanArthaM anyAyato dharati, tadA tena sArdhdaM krozadvayaM yAhi|
42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
yazca mAnavastvAM yAcate, tasmai dehi, yadi kazcit tubhyaM dhArayitum icchati, tarhi taM prati parAMmukho mA bhUH|
43 You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’ and ‘Hate your enemy.’
nijasamIpavasini prema kuru, kintu zatruM prati dveSaM kuru, yadetat puroktaM vacanaM etadapi yUyaM zrutavantaH|
44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
kintvahaM yuSmAn vadAmi, yUyaM ripuvvapi prema kuruta, ye ca yuSmAn zapante, tAna, AziSaM vadata, ye ca yuSmAn RtIyante, teSAM maGgalaM kuruta, ye ca yuSmAn nindanti, tADayanti ca, teSAM kRte prArthayadhvaM|
45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
tatra yaH satAmasatAJcopari prabhAkaram udAyayati, tathA dhArmmikAnAmadhArmmikAnAJcopari nIraM varSayati tAdRzo yo yuSmAkaM svargasthaH pitA, yUyaM tasyaiva santAnA bhaviSyatha|
46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even tax collectors do the same?
ye yuSmAsu prema kurvvanti, yUyaM yadi kevalaM tevveva prema kurutha, tarhi yuSmAkaM kiM phalaM bhaviSyati? caNDAlA api tAdRzaM kiM na kurvvanti?
47 And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even Gentiles do the same?
aparaM yUyaM yadi kevalaM svIyabhrAtRtvena namata, tarhi kiM mahat karmma kurutha? caNDAlA api tAdRzaM kiM na kurvvanti?
48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
tasmAt yuSmAkaM svargasthaH pitA yathA pUrNo bhavati, yUyamapi tAdRzA bhavata|
