< Matthew 19 >

1 And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these words, He removed from Galilee, and came to the borders of Judea, beyond the Jordan,
ܘܗܘܐ ܕܟܕ ܫܠܡ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܫܩܠ ܡܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܬܚܘܡܐ ܕܝܗܘܕ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܘܪܕܢܢ
2 and great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them there.
ܘܐܬܘ ܒܬܪܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܘܐܤܝ ܐܢܘܢ ܬܡܢ
3 And the Pharisees came near to Him, tempting Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?”
ܘܩܪܒܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܡܢܤܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢ ܫܠܝܛ ܠܐܢܫ ܕܢܫܪܐ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܒܟܠ ܥܠܐ
4 And He answering said to them, “Did you not read that He who made [them] from the beginning, made them a male and a female,
ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܕܗܘ ܕܥܒܕ ܡܢ ܒܪܫܝܬ ܕܟܪܐ ܘܢܩܒܬܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܘܢ
5 and said, For this cause will a man leave father and mother, and cleave to his wife, and they will be—the two—for one flesh?
ܘܐܡܪ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܢܫܒܘܩ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܡܗ ܘܢܩܦ ܠܐܢܬܬܗ ܘܢܗܘܘܢ ܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܚܕ ܒܤܪ
6 So that they are no longer two, but one flesh; what therefore God joined together, let no man separate.”
ܡܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܘ ܬܪܝܢ ܐܠܐ ܚܕ ܦܓܪ ܡܕܡ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܙܘܓ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܠܐ ܢܦܪܫ
7 They say to Him, “Why then did Moses command to give a roll of divorce, and to put her away?”
ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܡܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܘܫܐ ܦܩܕ ܕܢܬܠ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܘܢܫܪܝܗ
8 He says to them, “Moses for your stiffness of heart permitted you to put away your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܘܫܐ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܩܫܝܘܬ ܠܒܟܘܢ ܐܦܤ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܫܪܘܢ ܢܫܝܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܒܪܫܝܬ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܟܢܐ
9 And I say to you that whoever may put away his wife, if not for whoredom, and may marry another, commits adultery; and he who married her that has been put away, commits adultery.”
ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܕܫܒܩ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܕܠܐ ܓܘܪܐ ܘܢܤܒ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܓܐܪ ܘܡܢ ܕܢܤܒ ܫܒܝܩܬܐ ܓܐܪ
10 His disciples say to Him, “If the case of the man with the woman is so, it is not good to marry.”
ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܥܕܠܝܐ ܒܝܢܝ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܐܢܬܬܐ ܠܐ ܦܩܚ ܠܡܤܒ ܐܢܬܬܐ
11 And He said to them, “All do not receive this word, but those to whom it has been given;
ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܤܦܩ ܠܗ ܠܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܢ ܕܝܗܝܒ ܠܗ
12 for there are eunuchs who from the mother’s womb were so born; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who kept themselves eunuchs because of the kingdom of the heavens: he who is able to receive [it]—let him receive.”
ܐܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܟܪܤܐ ܕܐܡܗܘܢ ܐܬܝܠܕܘ ܗܟܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܘܘ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܥܒܕܘ ܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܤܦܩ ܢܤܦܩ
13 Then were brought near to Him children that He might put hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked them.
ܗܝܕܝܢ ܩܪܒܘ ܠܗ ܛܠܝܐ ܕܢܤܝܡ ܐܝܕܗ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܘܢܨܠܐ ܘܟܐܘ ܒܗܘܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ
14 But Jesus said, “Permit the children, and do not forbid them to come to Me, for of such is the kingdom of the heavens”;
ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܒܘܩܘ ܛܠܝܐ ܐܬܝܢ ܠܘܬܝ ܘܠܐ ܬܟܠܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܝܟ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ
15 and having laid [His] hands on them, He departed from there.
ܘܤܡ ܐܝܕܗ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܘܐܙܠ ܡܢ ܬܡܢ
16 And behold, one having come near, said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good thing will I do that I may have continuous life?” (aiōnios g166)
ܘܐܬܐ ܚܕ ܩܪܒ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܛܒܐ ܡܢܐ ܕܛܒ ܐܥܒܕ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܝ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ (aiōnios g166)
17 And He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one [is] good except one—God; but if you will to enter into life, keep the commands.”
ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܢܐ ܩܪܐ ܐܢܬ ܠܝ ܛܒܐ ܠܝܬ ܛܒܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܚܕ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܬ ܕܬܥܘܠ ܠܚܝܐ ܛܪ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ
18 He says to Him, “What kind?” And Jesus said, “You will not murder, You will not commit adultery, You will not steal, You will not bear false witness,
ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܕܠܐ ܬܩܛܘܠ ܘܠܐ ܬܓܘܪ ܘܠܐ ܬܓܢܘܒ ܘܠܐ ܬܤܗܕ ܤܗܕܘܬ ܫܘܩܪܐ
19 Honor your father and mother, and, You will love your neighbor as yourself.”
ܘܝܩܪ ܠܐܒܘܟ ܘܠܐܡܟ ܘܬܚܒ ܠܩܪܝܒܟ ܐܝܟ ܢܦܫܟ
20 The young man says to Him, “All these I kept from my youth; what yet do I lack?”
ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܘ ܥܠܝܡܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܢܛܪܬ ܐܢܝܢ ܡܢ ܛܠܝܘܬܝ ܡܢܐ ܚܤܝܪ ܐܢܐ
21 Jesus said to him, “If you will to be perfect, go away, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in Heaven, and come, follow Me.”
ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܬ ܓܡܝܪܐ ܠܡܗܘܐ ܙܠ ܙܒܢ ܩܢܝܢܟ ܘܗܒ ܠܡܤܟܢܐ ܘܬܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܤܝܡܬܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܘܬܐ ܒܬܪܝ
22 And the young man, having heard the word, went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions;
ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܗܘ ܥܠܝܡܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܘܐܙܠ ܟܕ ܟܪܝܐ ܠܗ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܓܝܪ ܩܢܝܢܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ
23 and Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I say to you that hardly will a rich man enter into the kingdom of the heavens;
ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܥܛܠܐ ܗܝ ܠܥܬܝܪܐ ܕܢܥܘܠ ܠܡܠܟܘܬ ܫܡܝܐ
24 and again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”
ܬܘܒ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܕܠܝܠ ܗܘ ܠܓܡܠܐ ܠܡܥܠ ܒܚܪܘܪܐ ܕܡܚܛܐ ܐܘ ܥܬܝܪܐ ܕܢܥܘܠ ܠܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ
25 And His disciples having heard, were exceedingly amazed, saying, “Who, then, is able to be saved?”
ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܬܗܝܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܛܒ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܡܢܘ ܟܝ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܚܐ
26 And Jesus having earnestly beheld, said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
ܚܪ ܒܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܕܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܐ ܠܘܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܡܫܟܚܐ
27 Then Peter answering said to Him, “Behold, we left all, and followed You, what then will we have?”
ܗܝܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܐ ܐܢܚܢܢ ܫܒܩܢ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܘܐܬܝܢ ܒܬܪܟ ܡܢܐ ܟܝ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܢ
28 And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you that you who followed Me, in the regeneration, when the Son of Man may sit on a throne of His glory, will sit—you also—on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel;
ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܬܝܬܘܢ ܒܬܪܝ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܡܐ ܕܝܬܒ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܥܠ ܬܪܢܘܤ ܕܫܘܒܚܗ ܬܬܒܘܢ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܬܪܥܤܪ ܟܘܪܤܘܢ ܘܬܕܘܢܘܢ ܬܪܥܤܪ ܫܒܛܐ ܕܐܝܤܪܐܝܠ
29 and everyone who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for My Name’s sake, will receive a hundredfold, and will inherit continuous life; (aiōnios g166)
ܘܟܠܢܫ ܕܫܒܩ ܒܬܐ ܐܘ ܐܚܐ ܐܘ ܐܚܘܬܐ ܐܘ ܐܒܐ ܐܘ ܐܡܐ ܐܘ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܘ ܒܢܝܐ ܐܘ ܩܘܪܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܫܡܝ ܚܕ ܒܡܐܐ ܢܩܒܠ ܘܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܢܐܪܬ (aiōnios g166)
30 and many first will be last, and last first.”
