Matthew 5
1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into the mountain; and when he had sat down, his disciples came to him.
UYesu ye aghavwene amapungha ghala, akatogha pa kidunda, akikala. Avavulanisua vaake vakaluta pa mwene.
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying: —
pe akategula kukuvavulanisia, akati,
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
“Vafunyilue vano vikumlonda uNguluvi kukila ifingi fyoni ulwakuva vilikwupila uluvonolo lwane ku vutwa uvwa kunyanya.
4 Blessed are they who mourn; for they will be comforted.
Vafunyilue vano vali nu lusukunalo, ulwakuva uNguluve ilikuvanyamasia.
5 Blessed are the meek; for they will inherit the earth.
Vafunyilue avakoola, ulwakuva uNguluve ilivapeela uvuhaasi uvwa iisi.
6 Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness; for they will be filled.
Vafunyilue vano visyukua kuvomba sino ikeela uNGuluve, ulwakuva uNguluve ilikuvapeela fyoni.
7 Blessed are the merciful; for they will obtain mercy.
Vafunyilue vano vali nu lusungu, ulwakuva uNguluve ilikuvasungukila.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart; for they will see God.
Vafunyilue vano vali nu mwojo um'balafu, ulwakuva vilikumwagha uNguluve.
9 Blessed are the peace-makers; for they will be called sons of God.
Vafunyilue vano vikusambania avaanhu, ulwakuava vitambulwagha vana va Nguluve.
10 Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vafunyilue vano vipumusivua vwimila kuvomba sino ikeela uNguluve, ulwakuva uvutwa vwa kukyanya vwane.
11 Blessed are ye, when men revile you, and persecute you, and say every thing that is bad against you, falsely, for my sake.
Mufunyilue umue, avaanhu pano vikuvaligha, vikuvapumusia na kukuvajova fivi mu nyinga vwimila une.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad; for great is your reward in heaven; for so did they persecute the prophets that were before you.
Muhovokaghe fiijo na kuuva nu lukeelo, ulwakuva uluvonolo lwinu kukyanya, lugome. Enendiiki nava vavili vano valyalongwile fye valyapumusivue.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth. But if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall itself be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot by men.
Umue muli mwinyo ku vaanhu va mu iisi. Neke umwinyo ghungasupuke lwoni, ndepoonu ghuviika kiki kugomosia ulunoneesi? Umwinyo ughuo, naghunoghiile nambe padebe, looli ghuuva ghwa kutaghua, ghukanyweghe na vaanhu.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid;
“Umue muli lumuli ku vaanhu va mu iisi. Ilikaaja lino lijengilue pakyanya pa kidunda, nalingifise.
15 nor do men light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the lamp-stand; and it giveth light to all that are in the house.
Kange, vaanhu navikunga itaaala na kukupikila ni liteneka, looli viviika pa kyimilo kuuti jivamulikaghe vooni vano vali mu nyumba.
16 In like manner let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Fye enendiiki, ulumuli lwinu lumulikaghe, kuuti avaanhu valolaghe imbombo siinu inofu, mu uluo vamughiniaghe, uNhaata ghwinu juno ali kukyanya.
17 Think not that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfill.
“Mulekaghe kusaagha kuuti nisile kuvusia indeaghilo sa Moose, nambe imbulanisio isa vavilu, jeeje? Looli nisile kukwilanisia.
18 For truly do I say to you, Not till heaven and earth pass away, shall one jot or one tittle pass from the Law, till all be fulfilled.
Kyang'haani nikuvavuula kuuti, uvulanga ni iisi pano fikyale kusovanika, nakwekale nambe akakelo kamo aka ndaghilo kano ndepoonu kivusivua, kuhanga fyoni fino uNguluve alyalaghile, fivombeke.
19 Whoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever shall do and teach them, he will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Lino umuunhu ghweni juno ideenya ululaghilo, nambe luno musaagha kuuti lulaghilo ludebe kukila sooni, kange ivulanisia avange kuvomba uluo, ujuo iiva n'debe fiijo mu nutwa vwa kukyanya. Neke umuunhu ghweni juno ivingilila indaghilo na kuvulanisia avange kuuti vasivingililaghe, ujuo iiva m'baha mu vutwa vwa kukyanya.
20 For I say to you, Unless your righteousness shall exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
Lino, nikuvavuula kuuti, nave uvugholofu vwinu navukika uvugholofu uvwa Vafalisayi nu vwa vavulanisi va ngaghilo, namulingila lusiku mu vutwa vwa kukyanya.
21 Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, “Thou shalt not kill; and whoever shall kill, shall be in danger of the Judges.”
“Mupuliike vule avakuulu viinu valyavulilue kuuti, 'Nungabudaghe, umuunhu ghweni juno ibuda un'jaake, anoghiile kuhighua,'
22 But I say to you, that whoever is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the Judges; and whoever shall say to his brother, Simpleton! shall be in danger of the Council; and whoever shall say, Fool! shall be in danger of hell-fire. (Geenna g1067)
Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti umuunhu ghweni juno kalalila un, jaake, anoghile kuhighua. Kange, umuunhu ghweni juno iligha un, jaake kuuti n, jasu, anoghile kuhighua pa kipugha kya valongosi. Umuunhu ghweni juno iligha un'jaaake kuuti mululute, anoghiile kutaghua ku lupumuko lwa mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. (Geenna g1067)
23 Therefore, if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there remember that thy brother hath aught against thee,
“Lino, nave uletile ilitekelo lyako pa kitekelelo kukuntavulila uNguluve, neke ghukumbuka kuuti un, jaako ali ni lisio nuuve.
24 leave there thy gift before the altar, and go away; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
Lileke ilitekelo ilio pa kitekelelo, neke ulute asambane taasi nu n'jaako, pe ghwise utavule ilitekelo lyako ilio.
25 Agree with thine adversary at law quickly, while thou art on the road with him; lest the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
“Kange, nave umuunhu jumonga ikukutwala kwa mhighi, unsuume ng'haning'haani kuuti musambane vul, e mujiighe. mu sila. Nave naghuvomba uluo, ikukuviika mu mavoko gha mhighi. Ghwope umhighi ikukutwala kwa masinjala kuuti akudindile mu ndinde.
26 Truly do I say to thee, Thou wilt not come out thence, till thou hast paid the last farthing.
Kyang'haani nikukuvuula, nungahume munkate umuo kuhanga uhombe fyoni fino ghusighilua.
27 Ye have heard that it was said, “Thou shalt not commit adultery.”
“Mupuliike vule avaanhu valyavulilue kuuti, 'Nungavwafukaghe.'
28 But I say to you, that whoever looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, umuunhu ghweni juno ikumulola umukijuuva mukwa kunnoghelua, iiva avwafwike naghwo mu mwojo ghwake.
29 And if thy right eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
Lino, iliiso lyako lingakwambusie, ng'omotola, utaaghe ku vutali. Yekuba kusofia ikilungo kimo m'bili, ghwoni kutaghua ku lupumuko lwa mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. (Geenna g1067)
30 And if thy right hand cause thee to offend, cut it off, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should go away into hell. (Geenna g1067)
Kange, uluvoko lwako lungakwambusie dumula attaghe ku vutali. Ulwakuva yekuba kusofia ikilungo kimo mu m'bili, kukila um'bili ghwoni kutaghua ku lupumuko lwa mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. (Geenna g1067)
31 And it was said, “Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement.”
“Kange, lilyajovilue kuuti, 'Umuunhu juno ikuntavula un'dala ghwake, ampelaghe ikalata ija kuntavula.'
32 But I say to you, that whoever putteth away his wife, unless it be on account of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery; and whoever shall marry her when put away, committeth adultery.
Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, umuunhu ghweni juno itavula un'dala ghwake, nave un'dala ujuo nam'bwafu, ikumpelela kuuva m'bwafu. Kange, umuunhu angatoole un'dala juno umughoosi antwavil, e, ghwope ivva ivwafuka.
33 Again ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, “Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt perform to the Lord thine oaths.”
“Kange, mupuliike vule avakuulu viinu valyavulilue kuuti, ulekaghe kujiigha isa vudesi, 'Looli pano ujighile, uvombaghe sooni sino ujighile,'
34 But I say to you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;
Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, namungajighaghe nambe pedebe. Namungajighaghe mulwa kutambula kukyanya, ulwakuva kye kitengo ikya vutwa ikya Nguluve,
35 nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King;
Nambe kujiisha mulwa kutambula iisi ulwakuva pepano uNguluvi iviika amaghulu ghaake; nambe kujiigha mulwa kutambula ilikaaja ilya Yelusalemu, ulwakuva lye likaaja lya Ntwa um'baha.
36 nor shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black.
Kange, namungajighaghe mulwa kutambula amatu ghiinu, ulwakuva namungadule nambe ulunyele lumo kuuva luvalafu nambe kuuva lutiitu.
37 But let your language be, Yea, yea; Nay; nay; for whatever is more than these cometh of evil.
Lino, nave mukwitika, mutisaghe, 'Eena,' nave mukaana mutisaghe, 'Ndali', ulwakuva sooni sino ikwangelela mu isio, sihuma kwa Mhosi uSetano.
38 Ye have heard that it was said, “An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.”
“Mupulike vule lilyajovilue kuuti, 'Umuunhu angakung'omotole iliiso, na juuve ng'omotola ilyake, angakukuule iliino, na juuve kuula ilyake.'
39 But I say to you, that ye resist not the evil-doer; but whoever smiteth thee on the right cheek, turn to him the other also;
neke une nikakuvuula kuuti, umuunhu juno akuvombiile uvuviivi, nungavangilaghe. Umuunhu angakusevula uvudili uvwa kundio, unsyetukisie nu vwa kung'highi.
40 and if any one intends to sue thee at the law, and take thy coat, give up to him thy cloak also;
Nave umuunhu ikukutwala pa vuhighi kuhighua mu vufumbue uvwa kutoola ighwandi jaako, mulekele atoole nali likooti.
41 and whoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.
Nave umuunhu ikukwumilisia kupinda unsigho ghwake mu lughendo ulwa kavalilo kamo, uve ulghendaghe ifivalilo fivili.
42 Give to him that asketh of thee; and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not away.
Kange, umuunhu angakusuume kimonga, mpeele. Nav e umuunhu ilinda kukopa kulyuve, nungankanaghe.
43 Ye have heard that it was said, “Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.”
Mupuliike vule lilyajovilue kuuti, Umughanaghe unnino, na kukunkalalila umulugu ghwako.'
44 But I say to you, Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you;
Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, muvaghanaghe avalugu viinu, kange muvasumilaghe kwa Nuluve vano ali vikuva pumusia.
45 that ye may become sons of your Father who 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.
Apuo pe muuva vaana va Nhaata ghwinu juno ali kukyanya, ulwakuva umwene ikuvapeela ulujuva avaanhu avanofu na vaviivi. Kange, ilikuvapeela ifula avagholofu na vano navagholofu.
46 For if ye love those who love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?
Mungavaghane va vano vikuvaghana umue, muuva nu luvumbililo luki? Ongo voope avasongesia songo vivomba vulevul, e.
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye that excelleth? Do not even the heathen the same?
Kange, nave mukuvahungila va vajiinu muvomba kiki ikinofu kukila avange? Ongo voope avapanji vihungilana vule vule.
48 Be ye therefore perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Lino, muvisaghe vagholofu ndavule uNhaata ghwinu juno ali kukyanya vule mugholofu.
