< Matthew 6 >

1 "Be careful that you do not do your righteousness before people, to be seen by them, or else you have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
“Akka isaan isin arganiif jettanii ‘Hojii qajeelummaa’ keessan fuula namootaa duratti akka hin hojjenneef of eeggadhaa. Yoo akkas gootan abbaa keessan kan samii irraa biraa gatii hin qabaattaniitii.
2 Therefore when you practice charitable giving, do not sound a trumpet before yourself, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get glory from people. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
“Kanaafuu ati yommuu warra rakkataniif waa kennitutti akka fakkeessitoonni namoota biratti jajamuuf jedhanii manneen sagadaa keessattii fi karaa irratti godhan sana malakataan hin labsatin. Ani dhuguman isinitti hima; isaan gatii isaanii argataniiru.
3 But when you practice charitable giving, do not let your left hand know what your right hand does,
Yeroo ati rakkattootaaf waa kennitutti garuu waan harki kee mirgaa godhu, harki kee bitaa hin beekin;
4 so that your charitable giving may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
kunis akka kennaan kee dhoksaan taʼuuf. Abbaan kee inni waan dhoksaatti hojjetamu argu sun ifaan ifatti gatii siif kenna.
5 "And when you pray, you are not to be as the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I tell you, they have received their reward.
“Isin yommuu kadhattan akka fakkeessitootaa hin taʼinaa; isaan namatti mulʼachuuf jedhanii manneen sagadaa keessaa fi golee karaa irra dhaabatanii kadhachuu jaallatuutii. Ani dhuguman isinitti hima; isaan gatii isaanii argataniiru.
6 But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
Ati garuu yeroo kadhattu mana keetti ol gali; balbala cufadhuutii Abbaa kee isa hin mulʼanne sana kadhadhu. Abbaan kee inni waan dhoksaatti hojjetamu argu sun ifaan ifatti gatii siif kenna.
7 And in praying, do not use vain repetitions, as the unbelievers do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.
Isinis yommuu kadhattan akka ormootaa dubbii faayidaa hin qabne irra hin deddeebiʼinaa; isaan baayʼina dubbii isaaniitiin waan isaaniif dhagaʼamu seʼu.
8 Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows what things you need, before you ask him.
Isin akka isaanii hin taʼinaa; abbaan keessan utuma isin hin kadhatin iyyuu waan isin barbaachisu ni beekaatii.
9 Therefore, you should pray this way: 'Our Father in heaven, holy be your name.
“Egaa akkana jedhaa kadhadhaa: “‘Yaa Abbaa keenya kan samii irra jirtu, maqaan kee haa qulqullaaʼu;
10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
mootummaan kee haa dhufu; fedhiin kee akkuma samii irratti taʼe sana, lafa irrattis haa taʼu.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
Buddeena keenya kan guyyuma guyyaa harʼa nuu kenni.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
Akkuma nu warra yakka nutti hojjetaniif dhiifnu sana, atis yakka keenya nuuf dhiisi.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.'
Isa hamaa jalaa nu baasi malee qoramatti nu hin galchin.’ Mootummaan, humni, ulfinnis bara baraan kan kee ti.
14 "For if you forgive people their wrongdoing, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Yoo isin namootaaf cubbuu isaanii dhiiftan, Abbaan keessan inni samii irraas akkasuma isiniif dhiisaatii.
15 But if you do not forgive people, neither will your Father forgive your wrongdoing.
Yoo isin namootaaf cubbuu isaanii dhiisuu baattan garuu, Abbaan keessanis akkasuma cubbuu keessan isiniif hin dhiisu.
16 "Moreover when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen by people to be fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
“Isin yommuu soomtanitti akka fakkeessitootaa fuula hin dukkaneeffatinaa; isaan akka soomuutti jiran argisiifachuuf jedhanii fuula isaanii hammeessu. Ani dhuguman isinitti hima; isaan gatii isaanii argataniiru.
17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face;
Ati garuu yeroo soomtu mataa kee dibadhu; fuula kees dhiqadhu.
18 so that you are not seen by people to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.
Kunis akka sooma kee sana abbaa kee isa namatti hin mulʼanne malee namni hin beekneefii dha. Abbaan kee inni waan dhoksaatti hojjetamu argu sun gatii kee ifaan ifatti siif kenna.
19 "Do not store up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and decay destroy, and where thieves break through and steal;
“Isin iddoo itti bilii fi daanaʼoon balleessituu fi iddoo itti hattuun cabsitee hattu lafa irratti badhaadhummaa ofii keessaniif hin kuufatinaa.
20 but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor decay destroy, and where thieves do not break through and steal;
Garuu iddoo itti bilii fi daanaʼoon nyaattee hin balleessinee fi iddoo itti hattuun cabsitee hin hanne samii irratti badhaadhummaa ofii keessaniif kuufadhaa.
21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Idduma badhaadhummaan kee jiru sana garaan kees jiraatii.
22 "The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light.
“Iji ibsaa dhagnaa ti. Iji kee fayyaa taanaan, dhagni kee guutuun ifaan guutama.
23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness.
Yoo iji kee fayyaa hin taʼin garuu, dhagni kee guutuun ni dukkanaaʼa. Erga ifni si keessa jiru sun dukkanaaʼee, dukkanni sun hammam haa jabaatu ree!
24 "No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Mammon.
“Namni gooftota lama tajaajiluu dandaʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Isa tokko jibbitee isa kaan jaallattaatii; yookaan isa tokkoof of kennitee isa kaan immoo tuffatta. Isinis Waaqaa fi Maallaqa tajaajiluu hin dandeessan.
25 Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
“Kanaafuu ani isinittin hima; ‘Maal nyaanna yookaan maal dhugna?’ jettanii waaʼee jireenya keessanii hin yaaddaʼinaa; yookaan ‘maal uffanna?’ jettanii waaʼee dhagna keessanii hin yaaddaʼinaa. Jireenyi nyaata hin caaluu? Dhagnis uffata hin caaluu?
26 See the birds of the sky, that they do not sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns, and your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of much more value than they?
Mee simbirroota samii ilaalaa; isaan hin facaafatan yookaan hin haammatan yookaan gombisaatti hin galfatan; taʼus Abbaan keessan inni samii irraa isaan soora. Isin immoo isaan caalaa gatii guddaa qabdu mitii?
27 "And which of you, by being anxious, can add one cubit to his height?
Isin keessaa namni yaaddaʼuudhaan hojjaa isaa irratti dhundhuma tokko dabalachuu dandaʼuu eenyu?
28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They do not toil, neither do they spin,
“Isin maaliif waaʼee uffataa yaaddoftu? Daraaraawwan dirree akkamitti akka guddatan mee ilaalaa. Isaan hin dhamaʼan yookaan hin foʼan.
29 yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these.
Ani garuu isinittin hima; Solomoon iyyuu ulfina isaa hunda keessatti, akka tokkoo isaaniitti hin uffanne.
30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won't he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
Isin yaa warra amantii xinnoo nana. Waaqni erga marga dirree kan harʼa jiruu fi kan bor immoo ibiddatti naqamutti iyyuu akkasitti uffisee, isinitti immoo guddaa caalchisee hin uffisuu ree?
31 "Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?'
Kanaafuu, ‘Maal nyaanna?’ yookaan ‘Maal dhugna?’ yookaan ‘Maal uffanna?’ jettanii hin yaaddaʼinaa.
32 For the unbelievers seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
Kana hunda ormoonni iyyuu ni barbaaduutii; Abbaan keessan inni samii irraas akka wanni kun hundinuu isin barbaachisu ni beeka.
33 But seek first the Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
Garuu duraan dursaatii mootummaa isaatii fi qajeelummaa isaa barbaadaa; wanni kun hundinuu akkasuma isiniif kennama.
34 Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Kanaafuu waaʼee boriitiif hin yaaddaʼinaa; bor ofii isaatiif ni yaaddaʼaatii. Hamminni guyyaa sanaa mataan isaa guyyicha ni gaʼa.
