Matthew 5
1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
Zvino wakati achiona zvaunga akakwira mugomo, zvino wakati agara pasi vadzidzi vake vakauya kwaari;
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
akashamisa muromo wake, akavadzidzisa achiti:
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vakaropafadzwa varombo pamweya; nokuti ushe hwekumatenga ndehwavo.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Vakaropafadzwa vanochema; nokuti ivo vachanyaradzwa.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Vakaropafadzwa vanyoro; nokuti ivo vachagara nhaka yenyika.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Vakaropafadzwa vane nzara nenyota yekururama; nokuti ivo vachagutiswa.
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Vakaropafadzwa vane tsitsi; nokuti ivo vachaitirwa tsitsi.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see YHWH.
Vakaropafadzwa vakachena pamoyo; nokuti ivo vachaona Mwari.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of YHWH.
Vakaropafadzwa vanoyananisa; nokuti ivo vachanzi vana vaMwari.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vakaropafadzwa vanoshushwa nekuda kwekururama; nokuti ushe hwekumatenga ndehwavo.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Makaropafadzwa imwi, kana vachikutukai, vachikushushai, vachikutaurirai zvakaipa zvese vachireva nhema nekuda kwangu.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
Farai mupembere kwazvo, nokuti mubairo wenyu mukuru mumatenga; nokuti vakashusha saizvozvo vaporofita vakakutangirai.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Imwi muri munyu wenyika; asi kana munyu warasa kuvava, ucharungwa nei? Hauchabatsiri chinhu, asi kurasirwa kunze, utsikwe-tsikwe nevanhu.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Imwi muri chiedza chenyika; guta rakamiswa pamusoro pegomo haringavanziki;
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
uye mwenje havautungidzi vakauisa pasi pedengu, asi pachigadziko chemwenje, uvhenekere vese vari mumba.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Saizvozvo chiedza chenyu ngachivhenekere pamberi pevanhu, kuti vaone mabasa enyu akanaka, vagokudza Baba venyu vari kumatenga.
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Musafunga kuti ndauya kuzoparadza murairo kana vaporofita; handina kuuya kuzoparadza, asi kuzozadzisa.
18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Nokuti zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Kusvikira denga nenyika zvichipfuura, vara diki rimwe kana chidodzi chimwe kubva pamurairo hazvingatongopfuuri, kusvikira zvese zvaitika.
19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Naizvozvo ani nani anotyora umwe wemirairo midikisa iyi, akadzidzisa vanhu saizvozvo, achanzi mudikisa muushe hwekumatenga; asi ani nani anoita akaidzidzisa, iye achanzi mukuru muushe hwekumatenga.
20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Nokuti ndinoti kwamuri: Kunze kwekuti kururama kwenyu kukapfuura kwevanyori nekweVaFarisi, hamungatongopindi muushe hwekumatenga.
21 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi kune vekare: Usauraya; uye ani nani anouraya achava nemhosva yemutongo;
22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. (Geenna g1067)
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Ani nani anotsamwira umwe wake pasina chikonzero, achava nemhosva yemutongo; neanoti kune umwe wake: Dununu! achava nemhosva yedare remakurukota; uye anoti: Benzi! achava nemhosva yegehena remoto. (Geenna g1067)
23 Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
Naizvozvo kana uchiuisa chipo chako kuaritari, ipapo ukarangarira kuti umwe wako ane chekupikisana newe,
24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
siya ipapo chipo chako pamberi pearitari, uende umbonotanga wayanana neumwe wako, ugouya wopira chipo chako.
25 Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
Tenderana nemudzivisi wako nekukurumidza, uchiri munzira naye, zvimwe mudzivisi angakukumikidza kumutongi, mutongi akukumikidze kumupurisa, ukakandirwa mutirongo.
26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwauri: Haungatongobudimo, kusvikira waripa kamari kekupedzisira.
27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi kune vekare: Usaita upombwe;
28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Wese anotarisa mukadzi kuti amuchive, watoita upombwe naye mumoyo make.
29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
Uye kana ziso rako rerudyi richikugumbusa, uridzure urase kubva kwauri; nokuti zviri nani kwauri kuti umwe wemitezo yako uparare, kwete kuti muviri wako wese ukandirwe mugehena. (Geenna g1067)
30 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
Zvino kana ruoko rwako rwerudyi ruchikugumbusa, urugure urasire kure newe; nokuti zviri nani kwauri kuti umwe wemitezo yako uparare, kwete kuti muviri wako wese ukandirwe mugehena. (Geenna g1067)
31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
Zvakanziwo: Ani nani anoramba mukadzi wake, ngaamupe rugwaro rwekurambana;
32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Ani nani anoramba mukadzi wake, kunze kwemhosva yeupombwe, anomuitisa upombwe; uye ani nani anowana wakarambwa anoita upombwe.
33 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto YHWH thine oaths:
Zvekare makanzwa kuti zvakanzi kune vekare: Usapika nhema, asi uripire Ishe mhiko dzako;
34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is Elohim's throne:
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Musatongopika; kana nedenga, nokuti chigaro chaMwari cheushe;
35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
kana nenyika, nokuti chitsiko chetsoka dzake; kana neJerusarema, nokuti iguta raMambo mukuru;
36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
uye usapika nemusoro wako, nokuti haugoni kuita ruvhudzi rumwe ruchena kana rutema.
37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
Asi shoko renyu ngarive: Hongu, hongu; kwete, kwete; chinopfuura izvi chinobva kune wakaipa.
38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi: Ziso neziso, uye zino nezino;
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Musapikisa wakaipa; asi ani nani anokurova padama rako rerudyi, umutendeusire rimwewo.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
Neanoda kukusungisa, nekutora shati yako, umutendere nguvo yakowo.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
Ani nani anokumanikidza kuenda maira imwe uende naye mbiri.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
Ipa anokumbira kwauri, usafuratira anoda kukwereta kwauri.
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi: Ude umwe wako, uvenge muvengi wako.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Idai vavengi venyu, ropafadzai vanokutukai, batai zvakanaka vanokuvengai, munyengeterere vanokubatai zvakaipa vachikushushai.
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
Kuti muve vana vaBaba venyu vari kumatenga, nokuti vanobudisira zuva ravo kune vakaipa nevakanaka, nemvura vanoinaisira vakarurama nevasakarurama.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
Nokuti kana muchida vanokudai, mune mubairo wei? Ko, vateresiwo havaiti izvozvo here?
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
Uye kana muchikwazisa vamwe venyu chete, munoita zvikuru kupfuura vamwe nei? Ko, vateresiwo havaiti saizvozvo here?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Naizvozvo imwi muve vakakwana, saBaba venyu vari kumatenga vakakwana.
