Matthew 6
1 Take heede that ye giue not your almes before men, to be seene of them, or els ye shall haue no reward of your Father which is in heaue.
“Nlilolechesye, nkatenda yambone pa ŵandu kuti mmoneche. Pakuŵa mwatendaga yeleyo ngampegwa ntuuka kutyochela kwa Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani.
2 Therefore when thou giuest thine almes, thou shalt not make a trumpet to be blowen before thee, as the hypocrites doe in the Synagogues and in the streetes, to be praysed of men. Verely I say vnto you, they haue their rewarde.
“Nipele pankunkamuchisya jwakulaga, nkagomba lipenga. Nkatenda mpela yakuti pakutenda ŵaulamba mmajumba ga kupopelela ni mmatala kuti ŵandu anlape. Ngunsalila isyene, ŵelewo ŵamale kupochela ntuuka wao.
3 But when thou doest thine almes, let not thy left hand knowe what thy right hand doeth,
Nambo mmwe pankunkamuchisya jwakulaga, ntende yeleyo mwakusisa namose ambusanga ŵenu akamanyilila,
4 That thine almes may be in secret, and thy Father that seeth in secret, hee will rewarde thee openly.
nipele mwakamuchisye ŵakulaga mwakusisika ni Atati ŵenu ŵakulola yakusisika, chachimpa mbote.
5 And when thou prayest, be not as the hypocrites: for they loue to stand, and pray in the Synagogues, and in the corners of the streetes, because they would be seene of men. Verely I say vnto you, they haue their rewarde.
“Sooni pankupopela, nkaŵa mpela ŵaulamba. Pakuŵa ŵelewo ikwanonyela kupopela achijimaga mmajumba ga kupopelela ni pamalekano melepe aoneche ni ŵandu. Ngunsalila isyene, ŵelewo ŵamale kupochela mbote jao.
6 But when thou prayest, enter into thy chamber and when thou hast shut thy doore, pray vnto thy Father which is in secret, and thy Father which seeth in secret, shall rewarde thee openly.
Nambo mmweji pankupopela, njinjile nkati mwenu, mmugale nnango ni mwapopele Atati ŵenu ŵangakuwonekana. Nombe Atati ŵenu ŵakulola inkuipanganya kwakusisika, champe mbote.
7 Also when ye pray, vse no vaine repetitions as the Heathen: for they thinke to be heard for their much babbling.
“Pankupopela, nkaŵecheta maloŵe ga wamba mpela ŵandu ŵangakwamanyilila Akunnungu. Pakuŵa ŵanyawo akuganisya kuti Akunnungu chachapilikanila kwa ligongo lya maloŵe gao gamajinji.
8 Be ye not like them therefore: for your Father knoweth whereof ye haue neede, before ye aske of him.
Nipele nkalandana ni ŵanyawo, pakuŵa Atati ŵenu akumanyilila chinkusaka nkanaŵe kwaŵenda.
9 After this maner therefore pray ye, Our father which art in heauen, halowed be thy name.
Nipele ŵanyamwe mpopeleje yeleyi, ‘Atati ŵetu ŵandi kwinani, Liina lyenu lichimbichikwe kwannope.
10 Thy Kingdome come. Thy will be done euen in earth, as it is in heauen.
Umwenye wenu uiche. Chinkusaka cho chitendekwe pachilambo pano mpela kwinani.
11 Giue vs this day our dayly bread.
Ntupe chakulya chetu cha lyuŵa ni lyuŵa.
12 And forgiue vs our dettes, as we also forgiue our detters.
Ntulechelesye ileŵo yetu, mpela uweji itukuti kwalechelesya wose ŵakutuleŵela.
13 And leade vs not into tentation, but deliuer vs from euill: for thine is the kingdome, and the power, and the glorie for euer. Amen.
Nkatujinjisya nkulinjikwa, nambo ntukulupusye ni jwangalumbana.’ Pakuŵa umwenye uli wenu ni machili ni ukulu moŵa gose pangali mbesi.
14 For if ye doe forgiue men their trespasses, your heauenly Father will also forgiue you.
“Pakuŵa mwalechelesyaga ŵandu ileŵo yao, Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani channechelesye ni ŵanyamwe ŵakwe.
15 But if ye do not forgiue men their trespasses, no more will your father forgiue you your trespaces.
Nambo iŵaga ngamwalechelesya ŵandu, nombe Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani ngasannechelesya ni ŵanyamwe ŵakwe.
16 Moreouer, when ye fast, looke not sowre as the hypocrites: for they disfigure their faces, that they might seeme vnto men to fast. Verely I say vnto you, that they haue their rewarde.
“Pankutaŵa, ngasimma mpela ŵaulamba. Ŵanyawo akutaŵa sinya ku meeso kwao melepe awoneche ni ŵandu kuti akutaŵa. Nambo une ngunsalila isyene kuti ŵelewo ŵamale kupochela ntuuka wao.
17 But when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face,
Nambo mwe pankutaŵa, nsukusule ku meeso ni kupakala mauta muntwe,
18 That thou seeme not vnto men to fast, but vnto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret, will rewarde thee openly.
kuti ŵandu anamanyilile kuti nkutaŵa, nambo mmanyiche ni Atati ŵenu ŵangakuwoneka. Nombe Atati ŵenu pe ŵakulola yakusisika, chachimpa mbote jenu.
19 Lay not vp treasures for your selues vpon the earth, where the mothe and canker corrupt, and where theeues digge through and steale.
“Nkaligosela mbiko pa chilambo pano pajikonasika ni idudu ni imbulukutu, ni ŵawiyi akwinjila ni kwiŵa.
20 But lay vp treasures for your selues in heauen, where neither the mothe nor canker corrupteth, and where theeues neither digge through, nor steale.
Nambo nligosele mbiko kwinani kwangajonasika chindu ni idudu namose imbulukutu, atamuno ŵawiyi ngakukombola kwinjila ni kwiŵa.
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Pakuŵa pajili mbiko jenu pele ntima wenu ni pachiuŵe.
22 The light of the body is the eye: if then thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be light.
“Liso lili lulanga lwa chiilu. Nipele liso lyenu lyaŵaga lyansima, chiilu chenu chose chichiŵe mu lilanguka.
23 But if thine eye be wicked, then all thy body shalbe darke. Wherefore if the light that is in thee, be darkenes, howe great is that darkenesse?
Nambo liso lyenu lyaŵaga ngaŵa lyansima, chiilu chenu chose chichiŵe mu chipi. Nipele lilanguka lyalili nkati mwenu lyaŵaga mu chipi, chipi cho chili totoloo!
24 No man can serue two masters: for eyther he shall hate the one, and loue the other, or els he shall leane to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serue God and riches.
“Ngapagwa jwakukombola kwatumichila achambuje ŵaŵili. Pakuŵa chanchime jumo ni kunnonyela jwine. Pane chanchimbichisye jumo ni kunnyelusya jwine. Ngankukombola kwatumichila Akunnungu nchitumichilaga mbiya kwanakamo.
25 Therefore I say vnto you, be not carefull for your life, what ye shall eate, or what ye shall drinke: nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more worth then meate? and the bodie then raiment?
“Kwa lyele ligongo ngunsalila, ngasinlilagasya kwa ligongo lya umi wenu kuti chindye chichi ni ching'we chichi namose kwa ligongo lya iilu kuti chimmwale chichi. Pakuŵa umi utopele kupunda yakulya ni chiilu chitopele kupunda iwalo.
26 Behold the foules of the heauen: for they sowe not, neither reape, nor carie into the barnes: yet your heauenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better then they?
Nnyilole ijuni ya mwikonde, ngaikupanda namose ngaikugungula atamuno nganiikola ikuti yaili yose. Nambo Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani akuilisya. Ŵanyamwe ndi wakutopela kwipunda ijuni yo.
27 Which of you by taking care is able to adde one cubite vnto his stature?
Nipele, ŵaani mwa ŵanyamwe kwakulichenjeusya nnope akukombola kulijonjechesya namose lyuŵa limo mmoŵa ga umi wakwe?
28 And why care ye for raiment? Learne howe the lilies of the fielde doe growe: they are not wearied, neither spinne:
“Yankati iwalo, kwachichi nkulajilila? Nnole uluŵa wa mwikonde yaukuti umele wakwe. Ngaukupanganya masengo atamuno ngaukuliluchila iwalo.
29 Yet I say vnto you, that euen Salomon in all his glorie was not arayed like one of these.
Nambo ngunsalila kuti, namose mwenye che Selemani ni ukulu wao wose nganawale yambone mpela limo lya uluŵa wo.
30 Wherefore if God so clothe the grasse of the fielde which is to day, and to morowe is cast into the ouen, shall he not doe much more vnto you, O ye of litle faith?
Nipele iŵaga Akunnungu akulitakusya yeleyo lisamba lya mwitinji lyalikumela lelo ni malaŵi likupatuka ni kwasikwa pa mooto ana ngati chantakusye kwakupunda ŵanyamwe ŵandi ni chikulupi chamwana?
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eate? or what shall we drinke? or where with shall we be clothed?
“Nipele ngasinkola lipamba chindye chichi? Atamuno ching'we chichi? Namose chimbwale chichi?
32 (For after all these things seeke the Gentiles) for your heauenly Father knoweth, that ye haue neede of all these things.
Pakuŵa yose yo ikuchenjeuchilwa ni ŵandu ŵangakwamanyilila Akunnungu. Nambo mwanya Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani akumanyilila kuti nkuilajila yele indu.
33 But seeke ye first the kingdome of God, and his righteousnesse, and all these things shall be ministred vnto you.
Nipele nsose kaje Umwenye wa Akunnungu ni kupanganya yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, ni indu ine chiijonjechekwe kukwenu.
34 Care not then for the morowe: for the morowe shall care for it selfe: the day hath ynough with his owne griefe.
Nipele ngasinkola lipamba yankati malaŵi, pakuŵa malaŵi ikwete yakwe. Kulaga kwa lyuŵa limo kukunkwana kwa lyele lyuŵa.
