Matthew 7
1 Judge not, that ye be not iudged.
“Se sekiseng mme ga lo na go sekisiwa!
2 Eor with what iudgement ye iudge, ye shall be iudged, and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you againe.
Gonne ba bangwe le bone ba tlaa lo tsaya fela jaaka lo ba tsaya.
3 And why seest thou the mote, that is in thy brothers eye, and perceiuest not the beame that is in thine owne eye?
“Mme o tshwenyegelang kaga selabe se se mo leitlhong la mongwe ka wena fa o na le sehidikwe mo go la gago?
4 Or howe sayest thou to thy brother, Suffer me to cast out the mote out of thine eye, and beholde, a beame is in thine owne eye?
A o tlaa re, ‘Tsala, mma ke go thuse ke ntshe selabe seo mo leitlhong la gago; fa tota o sa bone ka ntlha ya sehidikwe se se mo go la gago’
5 Hypocrite, first cast out that beame out of thine owne eye, and then shalt thou see clearely to cast out the mote out of thy brothers eye.
Moitimokanyi! Pele ntsha sehidikwe se se mo leitlhong la gago. Ke gone o ka bonang go thusa mongwe ka wena.
6 Giue ye not that which is holy, to dogges, neither cast ye your pearles before swine, lest they treade them vnder their feete, and turning againe, all to rent you.
“Se neeleng dikolobe dilo tsa lona tsa botlhokwa (diperela)! Di tlaa di gataka di be di retologela kwa go lona di lo tlhasela.
7 Aske, and it shall be giuen you: seeke, and ye shall finde: knocke, and it shall be opened vnto you.
“Kopang, mme lo tlaa newa se lo se kopang. Batlang, mme lo tlaa bona. Kokonyang, mme lo tlaa bulelwa.
8 For whosoeuer asketh, receiueth: and he, that seeketh, findeth: and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
“Gonne mongwe le mongwe yo o kopang, o a amogela. Le fa e le mang yo o batlang, o a bona; fela fa o kokonya, o tlaa bulelwa.
9 For what man is there among you, which if his sonne aske him bread, woulde giue him a stone?
Fa ngwana a kopa rraagwe dijo, a o tlaa neelwa lentswe mo boemong jwa tsone?
10 Or if he aske fish, wil he giue him a serpent?
Fa a kopa tlhapi, a o tlaa neelwa noga e e nang le botlhole? Nnyaa!
11 If ye then, which are euill, can giue to your children good giftes, howe much more shall your Father which is in heauen, giue good thinges to them that aske him?
Mme fa lona ba ba dipelo di thata, badira-dibe lo itse go fa bana ba lona dimpho tse di siameng, a Rraa-lona yo o kwa legodimong ga a na go naya ba ba mo kopang dimpho tse di siameng fela jalo?
12 Therefore whatsoeuer ye woulde that men should doe to you, euen so doe ye to them: for this is the Lawe and the Prophets.
“Direlang ba bangwe se lo batlang ba se lo direla. Se ke thuto ya melao ya ga Moshe ka mafoko a makhutshwane.
13 Enter in at the streight gate: for it is the wide gate, and broade way that leadeth to destruction: and many there be which goe in thereat,
“Legodimo le ka tsenwa fela ka kgoro e tshesane. Tsela e kgolo e e yang kwa moleting e atlhame, kgoro ya one e atlhametse bontsintsi jo bo tlhophang tsela ya one e e motlhofo.
14 Because the gate is streight, and the way narowe that leadeth vnto life, and fewe there be that finde it.
Mme boatlhamo jwa kgoro e e isang botshelong bo bonnye, le tsela e tshesane, mme basekae fela ba a e bona.
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you, in sheepes clothing, but inwardly they are rauening wolues.
“Itiseng mo baruting ba e seng bone ba ba tlang ba apere jaaka dinku tse di senang molato, mme e le diphiri tse di lo gagoganyang.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruites. Doe men gather grapes of thornes? or figges of thistles?
Lo ka ba lemoga ka tsela e ba dirang ka yone, fela jaaka lo ka lemoga setlhare ka loungo lwa sone ga lo kake lwa tshwantshanya mofine le ditlhare tse di mitlwa! Kgotsa difeige le masitlwana!
17 So euery good tree bringeth foorth good fruite, and a corrupt tree bringeth forth euill fruite.
Mefuta ya ditlhare tsa loungo e ka lemogwa ka bofefo ka go tlhatlhoba loungo lwa tsone.
18 A good tree can not bring forth euil fruite: neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruite.
Mofuta o o ungwang loungo lo lo monate ga o ke o ungwa mofuta o o sa jeweng!
19 Euery tree that bringeth not forth good fruite, is hewen downe, and cast into the fire.
Jalo he ditlhare tse di nang le loungo lo lo sa jeweng di a rengwa di bo di latlhelwa mo molelong.
20 Therefore by their fruites ye shall knowe them.
Ee, tsela ya go lemoga setlhare kgotsa motho ke ka mofuta wa loungo lo o lo ungwang.
21 Not euery one that sayeth vnto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdome of heauen, but he that doeth my Fathers will which is in heauen.
“Ga se botlhe ba ba buang boModimo ba ba ntseng jalo. Ba ka mpitsa ‘Morena’ mme ga ba kitla ba ya legodimong. Gonne potso ya botlhokwa ke gore a ba reetsa Rre yo o kwa legodimong.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, haue we not by thy Name prophecied? and by thy name cast out deuils? and by thy name done many great workes?
“Ka letsatsi la katlholo ba le bantsi ba tlaa nthaya ba re, Morena Morena, re boleletse ba bangwe ka ga gago ra ba ra dirisa leina la gago go lelekela badimo ntle le go dira dikgakgamatso tse dingwe tse dintsi.
23 And then will I professe to them, I neuer knewe you: depart from me, ye that worke iniquitie.
Mme ke tlaa fetola ke re, ‘Ga lo ise lo ke lo bo lo nne ba me. Tsamayang, gonne ditiro tsa lona di bosula’,
24 Whosoeuer then heareth of mee these words, and doeth the same, I will liken him to a wise man, which hath builded his house on a rock:
“Botlhe ba ba reetsang ditaelo tsa me ba di sala morago, ba botlhale, jaaka monna yo o agang ntlo ya gagwe mo lefikeng le le kwenneng.
25 And the raine fell, and the floods came, and the windes blewe, and beat vpon that house, and it fell not: for it was grounded on a rocke.
Le fa pula e tla ka bontsi morwalela o bo o tlhatloga mme go tsubutla ditsuatsue ka fa ntle ga ntlo ya gagwe ga e kitla e wa, gonne e agilwe mo lefikeng.
26 But whosoeuer heareth these my wordes, and doeth them not, shall be likened vnto a foolish man, which hath builded his house vpon the sand:
“Mme ba ba utlwang ditaelo tsa me, mme ba sa di tlhokomele ba dieleele, jaaka monna yo o agang ntlo ya gagwe mo motlhabeng.
27 And the raine fell, and the floods came, and the windes blewe, and beat vpon that house, and it fell, and the fall thereof was great.
Gonne fa dipula le merwalela di tla, mme diphefo di foka di itaaka ntlo ya gagwe, e tlaa gosomana mo go golo.”
28 And it came to passe, when Iesus had ended these wordes, the people were astonied at his doctrine.
Bontsintsi jwa batho bo ne jwa gakgamadiwa ke thuto ya ga Jesu.
29 For he taught them as one hauing authoritie, and not as the Scribes.
Gonne o ne a ruta jaaka mongwe yo o nang le nonofo e kgolo, eseng jaaka baeteledipele ba bone ba Sejuda.
