Matthew 5
1 And seeing the multitudes, He went up into the mountain; and having sat down, His disciples came to Him.
A, i tona kitenga i te whakaminenga, ka haere ia ki runga ki te maunga: a, no ka noho ia, ka haere ana akonga ki a ia:
2 And having opened His mouth He taught them, saying;
Na ka puaki tona mangai, a ka whakaako ia i a ratou, ka mea,
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: because the kingdom of the heavens is theirs.
Ka koa te hunga he rawakore nei te wairua: no ratou hoki te rangatiratanga o te rangi.
4 Blessed are the meek, because they shall inherit the earth.
Ka koa te hunga e tangi ana: ka whakamarietia hoki ratou.
5 Blessed are they that mourn: because they shall be comforted.
Ka koa te hunga ngakau mahaki: ka riro hoki i a ratou te whenua.
6 Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: because they shall be filled.
Ka koa te hunga e hiakai ana, e hiainu ana, ki te tika: e makona hoki ratou.
7 Blessed are the merciful: because they shall receive mercy.
Ka koa te hunga tohu tangata: e tohungia hoki ratou.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: because they shall see God.
Ka koa te hunga ngakau ma: e kite hoki ratou i te Atua.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: because they shall be called the sons of God.
Ka koa te hunga hohou rongo: ka huaina hoki ratou he tamariki na te Atua.
10 Blessed are they, who are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for the kingdom of the heavens is theirs.
Ka koa te hunga e whakatoia ana mo te tika: no ratou hoki te rangatiratanga o te rangi.
11 Blessed are ye when they may despise you, and shall persecute you, and may say all evil against you, falsifying, for my sake.
Ka koa koutou ina tawai ratou i a koutou, ina whakatoi, ina puaki i a ratou nga kupu kino katoa mo koutou, he mea teka, he whakaaro hoki ki ahau.
12 Rejoice, and he exceedingly glad: because your reward is great in the heavens: for in this manner they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Kia hari, kia whakamanamana: he rahi hoki te utu mo koutou i te rangi: he penei hoki ta ratou whakatoi i nga poropiti i mua i a koutou.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth; and if the salt may lose its savor, in what shall it be salted? It is yet without value, except having been cast out, to be trodden under feet by the people.
Ko koutou te tote o te whenua: otira ki te hemo te ha o te tote, ma te aha e whai tikanga tote ai? heoi ano tona painga, na ka akiritia ki waho, ka takahia e nga tangata.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city sitting on a mountain is unable to be hidden.
Ko koutou te whakamarama o te ao. E kore e ngaro te pa e tu ana i runga maunga.
15 Neither do they light a candle, and place it under a bushel, but on the candlestick; and it shineth to all who are in the house.
E kore hoki e tahuna te rama, e whakaturia ki raro o te mehua, engari ki runga ki te turanga; a ka tiaho ki nga tangata katoa i roto i te whare.
16 Let your light so shine before the people, in order that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.
Waihoki kia tiaho to koutou marama ki te aroaro o nga tangata, kia kite ai ratou i a koutou hanga pai, kia whakakororia ai i to koutou Matua i te rangi.
17 Think not that I came to destroy the law of the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfill.
Kei mea koutou i haere mai ahau ki te whakakahore i te ture, i nga poropiti ranei; kihai ahau i haere mai ki te whakakahore, engari ki te whakatutuki.
18 For truly I say unto you, Until heaven and earth may pass away, one jot or tittle can not pass from the law, until all things may be accomplished.
He tino pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Pahemo noa te rangi me te whenua, e kore tetahi tongi, tetahi tohu ranei o te ture e pahemo, kia rite katoa ra ano.
19 Therefore if any one may break one of the least of these commandments, and so teach the people, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of the heavens: but whosoever may do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of the heavens.
Na, ki te whakakahore tetahi i tetahi mea iti rawa o enei kupu ako, a ka ako i nga tangata kia pera, ka kiia ia ko te iti rawa i te rangatiratanga o te rangi: engari ki te whakaritea e tetahi, ki te whakaakona, ka kiia ia he nui i te rangatirata nga o te rangi.
20 For I say unto you, that if your righteousness may not abound more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you can not enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
Ko taku kupu hoki tenei ki a koutou, Ki te kore e nui ake ta koutou mahi tika i ta nga karaipi ratou ko nga Parihi, e kore rawa koutou e tapoko ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi.
21 You have heard that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not murder; and whosoever may murder shall be in danger of the judgment;
Kua rongo koutou, i korerotia ki nga tupuna, Kaua e patu tangata; a ki te patu tangata tetahi, ka tau te he ki a ia.
22 but I say unto you that every one being angry with his brother, shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever may say to his brother, Thou scoundrel, shall be in danger of the council; and whosoever may say, Thou fool, shall be liable unto a hell of fire. (Geenna g1067)
Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Ki te riri noa tetahi ki tona teina, ka tau te he ki a ia; a ki te mea tetahi ki tona teina, Wairangi! ka tika kia komititia: na ki te mea tetahi, Poauau! ka tika mona te kapura o Kehena. (Geenna g1067)
23 Therefore if you may bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,
Na reira, ki te mauria e koe tau whakahere ki te aata, a ka mahara i reira i hara koe ki tou hoa;
24 leave there your gift before the altar, and go, first be reconciled to your brother, then having come offer your gift.
Waiho tau whakahere i reira, i mua o te aata, a haere, matua houhia te rongo ki tou teina, ka haere ai, ka mau ai i tau whakahere.
25 Be reconciled with your adversary quickly, while you are in the way with him; lest the adversary may deliver you to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you may be cast into prison.
Kia hohoro te whakarite i ta korua korero ko tou hoa tauwhainga, i a korua ano i te ara, kei tukua koe e te hoa tauwhainga ki te kaiwhakawa, a ka tukua e te kaiwhakawa ki te katipa, a ka maka koe ki te whare herehere.
26 Truly I say unto you, You can not go out from thence until you have paid the last farthing.
He pono taku e mea atu nei ki a koe, E kore rawa koe e puta i reira, kia utua ra ano te patene whakamutunga.
27 You have heard that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Kua rongo koutou, i korerotia, Kaua e puremu:
28 But I say unto you that every one looking on a woman in order to lust after her hath already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Ki te titiro tetahi ki te wahine, he hiahia ki a ia, kua puremu ke ia ki a ia i roto i tona ngakau.
29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not that thy whole body may go away into hell. (Geenna g1067)
Ki te he koe i tou kanohi matau, tikarohia, maka atu: he pai ke hoki ki a koe ki te ngaro tetahi wahi ou, a ka kore e maka tou tinana katoa ki Kehena. (Geenna g1067)
Ki te he ano hoki koe i tou ringa matau, poutoa, maka atu: he pai ke ki te mate tetahi wahi ou, a ka kore e maka tou tinana katoa ki Kehena. (Geenna g1067)
31 And it was said, Whosoever may send away his wife, let him give her a divorcement.
I korerotia ano, Ki te whakarere tetahi i tana wahine, me hoatu ki a ia tetahi pukapuka whakarere:
32 But I say unto you, that every one sending away his wife, except on account of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever may marry her who has been cast off commits adultery.
Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Ki te whakarere tetahi i tana wahine, haunga mo te take moepuku, e mea ana ia i te wahine kia puremu: a ki te marena tetahi i te wahine i whakarerea, e puremu ana ia.
33 Again you have heard that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shall perform unto the Lord thine oaths.
Kua rongo ano koutou, i korerotia ki nga tupuna, Kaua e oati teka, engari me whakamana au oati ki te Ariki:
34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, because it is the throne of God;
Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Kaua rawa tetahi mea e oatitia; kaua te rangi, ko to te Atua torona hoki ia:
35 nor by the earth, because it is the footstool of His feet; neither by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King.
Kaua hoki te whenua; ko te turanga hoki tera o ona waewae: kaua hoki a Hiruharama; ko te pa hoki tera o te Kingi nui.
36 Neither swear by thy head, because thou art unable to make one hair white or black.
Kaua ano e oatitia tou matenga, e kore hoki e ahei i a koe te mea kia ma tetahi makawe, kia mangu ranei.
37 But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay; but that which aboundeth more than these is of the evil one.
Erangi ko tenei hei kupu ma koutou, Ae, ae; Kahore, kahore: no te mea ki te maha atu i ena, no te kino.
38 You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.
Kua rongo koutou i korerotia, He kanohi mo te kanohi, he niho mo te niho:
39 But I say unto you, Resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smites thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also:
Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Kaua e whakauaua atu ki te kino; erangi ki te pakia tou paparinga matau e tetahi, whakaangahia atu hoki tera ki a ia.
40 to him wishing to prosecute thee at law, and take away thy coat, let him have the cloak also.
A ki te mea tetahi kia whakawakia koe, ka tangohia tou koti, tukua atu hoki tou ngeri ki a ia.
41 Whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him two.
A ki te tonoa koe e tetahi kia haere kotahi te maero, kia rua au e haere tahi ai me ia.
42 Give to the one asking thee, and do not turn away from the one wishing to borrow from thee.
Hoatu ki te tangata e tono mea ana i a koe, kaua hoki e tahuri ke i te tangata e mea ana ki te taonga tarewa i a koe.
43 You have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor and hate thine enemy.
Kua rongo koutou i korerotia, Kia aroha ki tou hoa tata, kia kino hoki ki tou hoa whawhai:
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies with a divine love, bless those who curse you and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you:
Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Arohaina o koutou hoa whawhai, manaakitia te hunga e kanga ana i a koutou, kia pai te mahi ki te hunga e kino ana ki a koutou, me inoi hoki mo te hunga e whakawhiu ana i a koutou, e whakatoi ana i a koutou;
45 in order that you may be the sons of your Father who is in the heavens: because He raises up His sun on the wicked and on the good, and rains on the righteous and on the unrighteous.
Kia tupu ai koutou hei tamariki ma to koutou Matua i te rangi: e mea nei hoki ia i tona ra kia whiti ki te hunga kino, ki te hunga pai, kia ua hoki te ua ki te hunga tika, ki te hunga he.
46 For if you love those that love you, what reward have ye? because the publicans also do the same.
Ki te aroha hoki koutou ki te hunga e aroha ana ki a koutou, he aha te utu e riro i a koutou? Kahore ianei nga pupirikana e pena?
47 If you salute your brethren only, what do ye more abundantly? do not the heathens also the same thing?
A ki te oha koutou ki o koutou teina anake, he aha ta koutou mahi i nui ake i ta etahi? kahore ianei nga tauiwi e pena hoki?
48 Therefore ye shall be perfect, as your Father who is in heaven is perfect.
Na kia tika koutou, kia pera me to koutou Matua i te rangi e tika ana.
