Matthew 5
1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
Yesu peauwene msambi wa vandu, akakwela kuchitumbi, akatama. Vawuliwa vaki vakamlanda,
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
mwene akatumbula kuvawula, akajova.
3 Blessed [are] the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vamotisiwa vevavi vangangu mumpungu, muni Unkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga ndi wavi!
4 Blessed [are] they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Vamotisiwa vana mvinisu mumtima ndava vambudili Chapanga, muni Chapanga alavapolesa mitima!
5 Blessed [are] the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Vamotisiwa vangolongondi, muni valahala mulima.
6 Blessed [are] they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Vamotisiwa vana njala na vevavi na njota ya kukita geigana Chapanga, muni Chapanga alavayukutisa
7 Blessed [are] the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Vamotisiwi vevavi na lipyana, muni Chapanga alavahengela lipyana.
8 Blessed [are] the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Vamotisiwi vevavi na mtima wa msopi, muni yati valamuwona Chapanga.
9 Blessed [are] the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Vamotisiwi vatepulanisa, muni yati vikemelewa vana vaki Chapanga.
10 Blessed [are] they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vamotisiwi veving'aiswa ndava ya kukita geigana Chapanga, muni Unkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga ndi wa vene.
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.
“Mumotisiwi nyenye vandu vakavaliga, vakavanyagayi na kuvadetela uhakau ndava ya nene.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great [is] your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
Mheka na kululuta muni njombi yinu yivaha kunani kwa Chapanga, chenichi ndi chevavahengili Vamlota va Chapanga vevavalongolili kwakona nyenye.”
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.
Nyenye ndi mwinyu wa pamulima! Nambu luyong'onyo lwaki lwakayaga yati yisopewa kiki? Yivya lepi na lihengu kavili yati kutagika kuvala na vandu vakuyilivatila.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
“Nyenye ndi ngati lumuli lwa pamulima! Muji weujengiwi panani ya chitumbi ufiyika lepi.
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.
Vandu vipambika lepi hahi na kuigubika na chiviga, muni yivikiwa panani ya chibokoselu kuvalangasa voha vevavi mugati.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Mewawa lumuli lwinu luvalangasa palongolo ya vandu, vagalola matendu ginu gabwina, vamlumbalila Dadi winu mweavi kunani.”
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
“Mkoto kuhololela kuvya nibweli kuwusa malagizu ga Chapanga geampeli Musa amala mawuliwu ga Vamlota va Chapanga. Nibweli lepi kuwusa, ndi nibweli muni kugatimalisa.
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.
Nikujovela chakaka, mbaka kunani na mulima yati zihamba, kawaka hati nukuta yimonga yeyiwusiwa mumalagizu mbaka goha gatimila.
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.
Hinu, mundu yeyoha angayidakila hati mihilu umonga udebe kuliku zoha, na kuvawula vangi vakita ago, mwenuyo yati ivya mdebe neju, Muunkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga. Nambu mweiyuwanila na kuvawula vangi mwenuyo yati ivya mvaha muunkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga.
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.
Muyuwanila, ubwina winu ngati nakuyonjokesa wula wa vawula va malagizu na Vafalisayu, katu nakuyingila mu Unkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga.”
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:
“Mmali kuyuwana kuvya vandu va kadeni chavajoviwi, ‘Ukoto kukoma! Mundu yeyoha mweikoma yikumgana ahamuliwa.’
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)
Nambu nene nikuvajovela, mundu yeyoha mweakumyomela mlongo waki, yati ihamuliwa. Mundu yeyoha mweakumvevesa mlongo waki yati vakumtakila kulibanji la mihalu. Mweakumkemela mlongo waki, ‘Myimu! Yati iyingila kumotu wa magono goha wangajimika.’” (Geenna g1067)
23 Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
“Hinu, ngati upeleka luteta lwaku palongolo ya lusanja lwa luteta, na ukumbwiki kuvya mlongo waku avi na luhonda na veve,
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.
Ululeka luteta lwaku pa lusanja lwa luteta, hamba hoti ukatepulana na mlongo waku kangi uwuya kavili uwusa luteta lwaku.”
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.
“Tepulana na mweakutakili kanyata mwakona munjila kuhamba kulibanji la mihalu. Ngati lepi, mweakutakili yati akukugotola mumawoko ga mhamula mihalu, mwene akugotola kwa manjolinjoli na kukungiwa muchifungu.
26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
Nikujovela chakaka yati nakuhuma mbaka ulipili sendi ya mwishu.”
27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
“Muyuwini kuvya vandu vajoviwi, kotoka kukita ugoni!
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.
Nambu nene nikuvajovela, kila mundu mweakumlolokesa mdala cha kumnogela amali kugona nayu mumtima waki.
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)
Hinu, lihu laku la upandi wa kulyelela likakubudisa, ulitupula ukalitaga kutali. Mbanga neju, veve kuyaganisa pandu pamonga pa higa yaku, kuliku higa yaku yoha kutagika pamotu wa magono goha wangajimika. (Geenna g1067)
30 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it 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)
Ngati chiwoko chaku cha kulyela chikubudisa chidumulai ukatagayi kutali. Mbanga veve kuyaganisa pandu pamonga pa higa yaku kuliku higa yaku yoha yihambi kumotu wa magono goha wangajimika.” (Geenna g1067)
31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
“Gamali kujovekwa kuvya, ‘Mundu yeyoha mweakumleka mdala waki, amyandakila balua ya kumleka.’
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.
Nambu nene nikuvajovela, mundu yeyoha mweakumleka mdala waki, nambu ndu ndava ya kumkamula ugoni, akumkita mkemi. Na mgosi akamgegai mdala yula mwealekiwi ikita ugoni nayu.”
33 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
“Kangi myuwini vandu va kadeni vajoviwi, ‘Ukotoka kudenya chilapu chaku, nambu uganikiwa kutimilisa chilapu chaku kwa Bambu.’
34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God’s throne:
Nambu nene nikuvajovela, katu mkotoka kulapa, hati kunani kwa Chapanga, muni ndi chigoda cha Chapanga cha unkosi waki,
35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
amala kulapa kwa mulima muni chigoda cha kuvikila magendelu gaki, amala ku Yelusalemu muni muji wa Nkosi mkulu.
36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
Ukoto kulapa pamutu waku, muni nakuhotola kuuhenga hati luyunju lumonga kuvya lwa msopi amala lutitu.
37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
Mkajovai ‘Ena,’ Ndi yivya ‘Ena,’ Mkajovai, ‘Mbwitu,’ Chakaka yivyai ‘Mbwitu,’ Chochoha chechiyonjokeseka pa genago chihumila kwa Setani.”
38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
“Muyuwini kuvya gajoviki. ‘Lihu kwa lihu, linu kwa linu.’
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.
Nambu nene nikuvajovela, ukotoka kumuwuyisila mundu mhakau. Mundu akakupamanda, mulitama la kulyela, mng'anamusila na litama la kumangeya.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have [thy] cloke also.
Mundu akakutakila igana kukunyaga nyula yaku, mlekela atola mewa na likoti laku.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
Mundu akakukamula kwa makakala ugegai ndwika yaki kilomita yimonga, ugegai kilomita zivili.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
Mweakukuyupa mpelai, na ukotoka kumtila mundu mweakuyaika chindu.”
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
“Myuwini kuvya gajoviki, mgana muyaku, na mvenga likoko waku.
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;
Nambu nene nikuvajovela, muvagana makoko vinu na kuvayupila vala vevakuvang'aisa nyenye,
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.
muni mpata kuvya vana va Dadi winu mweavi kunani. Muni mwene akuvalangasila lilanga laki vandu makoko na vandu vabwina, na kuvatonyela fula kwa vandu vabwina palongolo yaki na vandu vahakau.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
Wu, njombi yoki mwipata kuhuma kwa Chapanga? Ngati mukuvagana vala vevakuvagana nyenye ndu! Kawaka! Muni hati vatola kodi navene vikita mewa!
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the publicans so?
Ngati Mukuvajambusa valongo vinu ndu, mhengili chindu kiki neju kuliku vangi? Muni hati vangammanya Chapanga vikita mewawa.
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Mwiganikiwa mkoto kupungula chochoa mukuhenga gabwina ngati Dadi winu wa kunani kwa Chapanga angapungula.”
