Matthew 5
1 When Jesus saw the crowds following him he went up a mountain. There he sat down together with his disciples.
Yesu pakagawoniti mapinga ga wantu, kakweniti kulugongu, kalivagiti pasi. Wafundwa wakuwi walivagiti pawamzyengeta,
2 He began teaching them, saying:
na Yomberi kanjiti kuwafunda.
3 “Blessed are those who recognize they are spiritually poor, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.
“Mbaka ya woseri yawawera wahushu wa shirohu, Toziya Ufalumi wa mpindi ndo wawu!
4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera na hinginiku, Toziya Mlungu hakawazyangizyangi!
5 Blessed are those who are kind for they will own the whole world.
Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera wapoli, Toziya hawayihali isi.
6 Blessed are those whose greatest desire is to do what is right, for they will be satisfied.
Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera na njala na yimiluwa ya kutenda gakafira Mlungu, Mlungu hakawayukutiziyi!
7 Blessed are those who are merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera na lusungu kwa wamonga, Mlungu hakawawoneri lusungu womberi!
8 Blessed are those who have pure minds, for they will see God.
Mbaka kwa woseri yawamfira Mlungu kwa myoyu yawu yoseri, Womberi hawamwoni Mlungu!
9 Blessed are those who work to bring peace, for they will be called children of God.
Mbaka kwa woseri yawajega ponga, Mlungu hakawashemi wana wakuwi!
10 Blessed are those persecuted for what is right, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.
“Mbaka kwa woseri yawatabika toziya yakutenda gakafira Mlungu, Ufalumi wa kumpindi ndo gwawu!
11 Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and accuse you of all kinds of evil things because of me.
“Mbaka mwenga wantu pawawigilanga na kuwazulumu na kuwatendera madoda ga ntambu zoseri toziya mwenga munjimila neni.
12 Be glad, be really glad, for you will receive a great reward in heaven—for they persecuted the prophets who came before you in just the same way.
Mwenga mnemeli na kusekelera toziya mafupu genu ndo makulu kumpindi kwa Mlungu. Hangu ndo ntambu yawalikaliti wambuyi wa makashu wa Mlungu pamberi pa mwenga.
13 You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt becomes tasteless, how can you make it salty again? It's good for nothing, so it's thrown out and trodden down.
“Mwenga mulifana gambira munu gwa pasipanu. Kumbiti munu pagwasa unoga wakuwi, kwahera njira yingi yakugutenda gunogi kayi. Hapeni gufayi, su hawagwasi kunja na wantu hawagutimbangi.
14 You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill can't be hidden.
“Mwenga ndo langala ya pasipanu! Lushi lwa walunyawiti mulugongu hapeni lulififi.
15 No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a bucket. No, it's placed on a lamp-stand and it provides light to everyone in the house.
“Kwahera wantu yawawasha shikoloboyi na kushigubikira na shiwiga, badala yakuwi hakashituli pampindi pa shintambi, su kulangala kwakuwi kulangali kwa kila muntu mnumba.
16 In the same way you should let your light shine before everyone so they can see the good things you do and praise your heavenly Father.
Ntambu ira ayi, langala ya mwenga ilangali mpaka kulongolu kwa wantu, su wagaloli matendu genu gaherepa, wamkwisi Tati gwenu yakawera kumpindi.
17 Don't think I came to abolish the law or the writings of the prophets. I didn't come to abolish them, but to fulfill them.
“Namulihola handa niza kuwusiya Lilagaliru lya Musa na mafundu ga wambuyi wa Mlungu. Niza ndiri kugawusiya Malagaliru, kumbiti kutenda mafundu gawu gatendeki.
18 I assure you, until heaven and earth come to an end, not a single letter, not a single dot of the law will come to an end before everything is fulfilled.
Nukugambirani nakaka, kumpindi na pasipanu pazipelera, kumbiti hapeni ata shisoweru shididini ama seemu ndidini yavilembitwi Mumalagaliru yiwusiwi, su mpaka mafundu goseri gatendeki.
19 So whoever disregards the least important commandment, and teaches people to do so, will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches the commandments will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Su yoseri yakamegi ata lilagaliru limu lididini na kuwafunda wamonga watendi viraa, ayu hakaweri mdidini muufalumi wa kumpindi kwa Mlungu. Kumbiti ulii yakabatira malagaliru na kuwafunda wamonga kutenda viraa, muntu ayu hakaweri mkulu muufalumi wa kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
20 I tell you, unless your moral rightness is more than that of the religious teachers and the Pharisees, you can never enter the kingdom of heaven.
Toziya nukugambirani, handa kumfiriziya Mlungu kwamwenga pakakanka ndiri ulii wa Mafalisayu na wafunda wa Malagaliru, hapeni mwingiri nakamu muufalumi wa kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
21 You've heard that the law said to the people of long ago: ‘You shall not murder, and anyone who commits murder will be condemned as guilty.’
“Mpikaniriti ntambu ya wantu wagona wawagambiriti, ‘Nagulaga! Na yoseri yakalaga hawamtozi.’
22 But I tell you, anyone who is angry with his brother will be condemned as guilty. Whoever calls his brother an idiot has to answer to the council, but whoever verbally abuses others is liable to the fire of judgment. (Geenna g1067)
Kumbiti vinu neni nukugambirani, yoseri yakawera na maya kwa mlongu gwakuwi hawamtozi, yakamzarawu mlongu gwakuwi hawamjegi mumahakama. Na yakamshema mlongu gwakuwi, ‘Mzigizigi’ hakaweri muhatari ya kwingira mumotu gwa Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
23 If you're at the altar making an offering, and remember that your brother has something against you,
Su pagulaviya mafupu gaku pashitalawanda sha kutambikira na gulihola gwana ungondu na mlongu gwaku,
24 leave your offering on the altar and go and make peace with him first, and afterwards come back and make your offering.
guleki mafupu gaku pashitalawanda sha kutambikira, guwuyi huti gwakatendi ponga na mlongu gwaku, su gwizi na gulaviyi mafupu gaku kwa Mlungu.
25 While you're on the way to court with your opponent, make sure you settle things quickly. Otherwise your opponent might hand you over to the judge, and the judge will hand you over to the court official, and you will be thrown into jail.
“Gupatani na mstaki gwaku kanongola pamuwera mwankali munjira kugenda kumahakama. Pagutenda ndiri hangu, mstaki gwaku hakakujegi kwa mtoza, nayomberi hakakujegi kwa wanjagila wakutatili mushibetubetu.
26 I tell you the truth: you won't get out of there until you've paid every last penny.
Nakaka nukugambira, hapeni gulawi mulii mpaka gulipi ligwala lya kumalalira.
27 You've heard that the law said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’
“Mpikanira handa wantu wawagambiriti, ‘Nagutenda uhumba!’
28 But I tell you that everyone who looks lustfully at a woman has already committed adultery with her in his mind.
Su vinu neni nukugambirani, yoseri yakamlola mdala kwa kufira kutenda nayu undiyandiya, muntu ayu katenda kala uhumba mumoyu mwakuwi.
29 If your right eye leads you to sin, then tear it out and throw it away, because it's better to lose one part of your body than to have your whole body thrown into the fire of judgment. (Geenna g1067)
Su, lisu lyaku lya kumliwu palitenda gutendi vidoda, gulikolopoli na kuliyasa kutali! Mbaka nentu kwasa shiwungu shimu sha nshimba yaku, kuliku nshimba yaku yoseri wayasi mumotu gwa Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
30 If your right hand leads you to sin, then cut it off and throw it away, for it's better for you to lose one of your limbs than for your whole body to go into the fire of judgment. (Geenna g1067)
Handa liwoku lyaku lya kumliwu litenda gutendi vidoda, gulidumuli na kulyasa kutali! Mbaka nentu gwenga kwasa shiwungu shimu munshimba yaku, kuliku nshimba yaku yoseri kwingira mumotu gwa Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
31 The law also said, ‘If a man divorces his wife, he should give her a certificate of divorce.’
“Itakulitwi kala viraa, ‘Yakamleka mdala gwakuwi ifiruwa kampanani malembu ga kumleka.’
32 But I tell you that any man who divorces his wife except for sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, yakamupanana mdala gwakuwi malembu ga kumleka, tembera ndiri kwa shitwatira, kamtenda kaweri mndiyandiya, na muntu pakamyuga mdala yawampananiti malembu ga kumleka, katenda uhumba.”
33 And again, you've heard that the law said to the people of long ago, ‘You shall not perjure yourself. Instead make sure you keep the oaths you swear to the Lord.’
“Kayi mpikanira handa wantu wagona wawagambiriti, ‘Naguleka kulirapa kwaku, kumbiti gutendi ntambu yagulirapa kwa Mtuwa.’
34 But I tell you, don't swear at all. Don't swear by heaven, because it's the throne of God.
Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, nagulirapira kwa ntambu yoseri ilii. Nagulirapira kwa kumpindi, toziya ndo shibanta sha ufalumi sha Mlungu,
35 Don't swear by the earth, because it's God's footstool. Don't swear by Jerusalem, because it's the city of the great King.
ama mupasipanu, mana ndo shiti shakuwi sha kutulila magulu, ama kwa Yerusalemu toziya ndo lushi lwa Mfalumi mkulu.
36 Don't even swear by your head, because you're not able to make a single hair white or black.
Nagulirapira ata kwa mtuwi gwaku, toziya hapeni guwezi kutenda ata vilii yimu iweri neru ama ntiti.
37 Simply say yes or no—more than this comes from the evil one.
Pagutakula ‘Yina’ su iweri ‘Yina’, pagutakula ‘Ndala’ su iweri ‘Ndala’. Shoseri shilii shagutakula kunja na ashi shilawa kwa ulii Shetani.
38 You've heard that the law said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’
“Mpikaniriti ntambu yawatakulaga, ‘Lisu kwa lisu na linu kwa linu.’
39 But I tell you, don't resist someone who is evil. If someone slaps you on the right cheek, turn the other cheek to them as well.
Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, namumwuzilira muntu mdoda. Muntu pakakukoma lisaya lya kumliwu gumleki kakukomi viraa na lya kumshigi.
40 If someone wants to sue you in court and takes your shirt, give them your coat too.
Muntu pakakujegera kumahakama kafira kalitoli lishati lyaku, gumlekeri viraa na likoti lyaku.
41 If someone demands that you go one mile, go with them two.
Na muntu pakakulazimisha kupapa shisanka shakuwi kilumita yimu, gushipapi kilumita mbili.
42 Give to those who ask you, and don't turn away those who want to borrow from you.
Muntu yakakuluwa gumpanani, nagumpanana shisogu muntu yakafira kukuwanda shintu.
43 You've heard that the law said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
“Mpikanira ntambu yawatakuliti, ‘Guwafiri waganja waku na guwakalaliri wang'ondu waku.’
44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, muwafiri wang'ondu wenu na muwaluwili kwa Mlungu walii yawakuzulumani,
45 so you may become children of your heavenly Father. For his sun shines on both the good and the bad; and he makes the rain fall on both those who do right and those who do wrong.
su hamuweri wana wa Tati gwenu kakumpindi. Yomberi kawawalira mshenji wantu wadoda na wantu waheri na kawatowera viraa wantu woseri yawamfiriziya Mlungu na wantu yawamfiriziya ndiri Mlungu.
46 For if you only love those who love you, what reward do you have? Don't even the tax-collectors do that?
Hashi, Mlungu hakakupanani mafupu ga ntambu gaa pamuwafira hera walii yawawafira mwenga? Ata watola kodi watenda viraa!
47 If you only speak kindly to your family, what more are you doing than anyone else? Even the heathen do that!
Handa pamuwalamusiya hera walongu wenu, hashi, mtenda shitwatira sha hera hangu ndiri? Ata wantu yawamumana ndiri Mlungu watenda viraa!
48 Grow up and become completely trustworthy, just as your heavenly Father is trustworthy.
Muweri waheri ntambu yakawera muheri Tati gwenu kakumpindi!
