Matthew 6
1 “Take care not to perform your religious duties in public in order to be seen by others; if you do, your Father who is in heaven has no reward for you.
| ܚܘܪܘ ܕܝܢ ܒܙܕܩܬܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܬܥܒܕܘܢܗ ܩܕܡ ܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܬܬܚܙܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܐܠܐ ܐܓܪܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ |
2 Therefore, when you do acts of charity, do not have a trumpet blown in front of you, as hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets so that people will praise them. There, I tell you, is their reward!
| ܐܡܬܝ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܙܕܩܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܩܪܐ ܩܪܢܐ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܐܝܟ ܕܥܒܕܝܢ ܢܤܒܝ ܒܐܦܐ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܘܒܫܘܩܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܢܫܬܒܚܘܢ ܡܢ ܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܘܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܩܒܠܘ ܐܓܪܗܘܢ |
3 But, when you do acts of charity, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
| ܐܢܬ ܕܝܢ ܡܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܙܕܩܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܕܥ ܤܡܠܟ ܡܢܐ ܥܒܕܐ ܝܡܝܢܟ |
4 so that your charity may be secret; and your Father, who sees what is in secret, will reward you.
| ܐܝܟ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܙܕܩܬܟ ܒܟܤܝܐ ܘܐܒܘܟ ܕܚܙܐ ܒܟܤܝܐ ܗܘ ܢܦܪܥܟ ܒܓܠܝܐ |
5 “And, when you pray, you are not to behave as hypocrites do. They like to pray standing in the synagogues and at the corners of the streets, so that people will see them. There, I tell you, is their reward!
| ܘܡܐ ܕܡܨܠܐ ܐܢܬ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܢܤܒܝ ܒܐܦܐ ܕܪܚܡܝܢ ܠܡܩܡ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܘܒܙܘܝܬܐ ܕܫܘܩܐ ܠܡܨܠܝܘ ܕܢܬܚܙܘܢ ܠܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܘܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܩܒܠܘ ܐܓܪܗܘܢ |
6 But, when one of you prays, they should go into their own room, shut the door, and pray to their Father who dwells in secret; and their Father, who sees what is secret, will reward them.
| ܐܢܬ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܬܝ ܕܡܨܠܐ ܐܢܬ ܥܘܠ ܠܬܘܢܟ ܘܐܚܘܕ ܬܪܥܟ ܘܨܠܐ ܠܐܒܘܟ ܕܒܟܤܝܐ ܘܐܒܘܟ ܕܚܙܐ ܒܟܤܝܐ ܢܦܪܥܟ ܒܓܠܝܐ |
7 When praying, do not repeat the same words over and over again, as is done by the Gentiles, who think that by using many words they will obtain a hearing.
| ܘܡܐ ܕܡܨܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܦܩܩܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܚܢܦܐ ܤܒܪܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܒܡܡܠܠܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܫܬܡܥܝܢ |
8 Do not imitate them; for God, your Father, knows what you need before you ask him.
| ܠܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܬܕܡܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܝܕܥ ܡܢܐ ܡܬܒܥܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܥܕܠܐ ܬܫܐܠܘܢܝܗܝ |
9 You, therefore, should pray like this – ‘Our Father, who is in heaven, may your name be held holy,
| ܗܟܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܨܠܘ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܒܘܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܢܬܩܕܫ ܫܡܟ |
10 your kingdom come, your will be done – on earth, as in heaven.
| ܬܐܬܐ ܡܠܟܘܬܟ ܢܗܘܐ ܨܒܝܢܟ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܐܦ ܒܐܪܥܐ |
11 Give us today the bread that we will need;
| ܗܒ ܠܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܤܘܢܩܢܢ ܝܘܡܢܐ |
12 and forgive us our wrongdoings, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us;
| ܘܫܒܘܩ ܠܢ ܚܘܒܝܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܫܒܩܢ ܠܚܝܒܝܢ |
13 and take us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.’
| ܘܠܐ ܬܥܠܢ ܠܢܤܝܘܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܦܨܢ ܡܢ ܒܝܫܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܕܝܠܟ ܗܝ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܘܚܝܠܐ ܘܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܥܠܡܝܢ |
14 For, if you forgive others their offenses, your heavenly Father will forgive you also;
| ܐܢ ܓܝܪ ܬܫܒܩܘܢ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܤܟܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܢܫܒܘܩ ܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ |
15 but, if you do not forgive others their offenses, not even your Father will forgive your offenses.
| ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܬܫܒܩܘܢ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܫܒܩ ܠܟܘܢ ܤܟܠܘܬܟܘܢ |
16 “And, when you fast, do not put on gloomy looks, as hypocrites do who disfigure their faces so that they may be seen by people to be fasting. That, I tell you, is their reward!
| ܐܡܬܝ ܕܝܢ ܕܨܝܡܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܟܡܝܪܐ ܐܝܟ ܢܤܒܝ ܒܐܦܐ ܡܚܒܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܦܪܨܘܦܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܢܬܚܙܘܢ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܕܨܝܡܝܢ ܘܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܩܒܠܘ ܐܓܪܗܘܢ |
17 But, when one of you fasts, they should anoint their head and wash their face,
| ܐܢܬ ܕܝܢ ܡܐ ܕܨܐܡ ܐܢܬ ܐܫܝܓ ܐܦܝܟ ܘܡܫܘܚ ܪܫܟ |
18 so that they may not be seen by people to be fasting, but by their Father who dwells in secret; and their Father, who sees what is secret, will reward them.
| ܐܝܟ ܕܠܐ ܬܬܚܙܐ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܕܨܐܡ ܐܢܬ ܐܠܐ ܠܐܒܘܟ ܕܒܟܤܝܐ ܘܐܒܘܟ ܕܚܙܐ ܒܟܤܝܐ ܗܘ ܢܦܪܥܟ |
19 “Do not store up treasures for yourselves on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
| ܠܐ ܬܤܝܡܘܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܤܝܡܬܐ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܐܬܪ ܕܤܤܐ ܘܐܟܠܐ ܡܚܒܠܝܢ ܘܐܝܟܐ ܕܓܢܒܐ ܦܠܫܝܢ ܘܓܢܒܝܢ |
20 But store up treasures for yourselves in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal.
| ܐܠܐ ܤܝܡܘ ܠܟܘܢ ܤܝܡܬܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܠܐ ܤܤܐ ܘܠܐ ܐܟܠܐ ܡܚܒܠܝܢ ܘܐܝܟܐ ܕܓܢܒܐ ܠܐ ܦܠܫܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܓܢܒܝܢ |
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
| ܐܝܟܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܤܝܡܬܟܘܢ ܬܡܢ ܗܘ ܐܦ ܠܒܟܘܢ |
22 The lamp of the body is the eye. If your eye is unclouded, your whole body will be lit up;
| ܫܪܓܐ ܕܦܓܪܐ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܥܝܢܐ ܐܢ ܥܝܢܟ ܗܟܝܠ ܬܗܘܐ ܦܫܝܛܐ ܐܦ ܟܠܗ ܦܓܪܟ ܢܗܝܪ ܗܘ |
23 but, if your eye is diseased, your whole body will be darkened. And, if the inner light is darkness, how intense must that darkness be!
| ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܥܝܢܟ ܬܗܘܐ ܒܝܫܐ ܟܠܗ ܦܓܪܟ ܚܫܘܟܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܐܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܢܘܗܪܐ ܕܒܟ ܚܫܘܟܐ ܗܘ ܚܫܘܟܟ ܟܡܐ ܢܗܘܐ |
24 No one can serve two masters, for either they will hate one and love the other, or else they will attach themselves to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
| ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܬܪܝܢ ܡܪܘܢ ܠܡܦܠܚ ܐܘ ܓܝܪ ܠܚܕ ܢܤܢܐ ܘܠܐܚܪܢܐ ܢܪܚܡ ܐܘ ܠܚܕ ܢܝܩܪ ܘܠܐܚܪܢܐ ܢܫܘܛ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܠܡܦܠܚ ܘܠܡܡܘܢܐ |
25 “This is why I say to you, Do not be anxious about your life – what you can get to eat or drink, or about your body – what you can get to wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
| ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܐܨܦܘܢ ܠܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܡܢܐ ܬܐܟܠܘܢ ܘܡܢܐ ܬܫܬܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܠܦܓܪܟܘܢ ܡܢܐ ܬܠܒܫܘܢ ܠܐ ܗܐ ܢܦܫܐ ܝܬܝܪܐ ܡܢ ܤܝܒܪܬܐ ܘܦܓܪܐ ܡܢ ܠܒܘܫܐ |
26 Look at the wild birds – they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns; and yet your heavenly Father feeds them! Aren’t you more precious than they?
| ܚܘܪܘ ܒܦܪܚܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܕܠܐ ܙܪܥܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܚܨܕܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܚܡܠܝܢ ܒܐܘܨܪܐ ܘܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܡܬܪܤܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܗܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܝܬܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢܗܘܢ |
27 But which of you, by being anxious, can prolong their life a single moment?
| ܡܢܘ ܕܝܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܟܕ ܝܨܦ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܘܤܦܘ ܥܠ ܩܘܡܬܗ ܐܡܬܐ ܚܕܐ |
28 And why be anxious about clothing? Study the wild lilies, and how they grow. They neither toil nor spin;
| ܘܥܠ ܠܒܘܫܐ ܡܢܐ ܝܨܦܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܬܒܩܘ ܒܫܘܫܢܐ ܕܕܒܪܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܪܒܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܠܐܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܥܙܠܢ |
29 yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his splendor was not robed like one of these.
| ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܦܠܐ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܒܟܠܗ ܫܘܒܚܗ ܐܬܟܤܝ ܐܝܟ ܚܕܐ ܡܢܗܝܢ |
30 If God so clothes even the grass of the field, which is living today and tomorrow will be thrown into the oven, won’t he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
| ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܥܡܝܪܐ ܕܚܩܠܐ ܕܝܘܡܢܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܘܡܚܪ ܢܦܠ ܒܬܢܘܪܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܡܠܒܫ ܠܐ ܤܓܝ ܝܬܝܪ ܠܟܘܢ ܙܥܘܪܝ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ |
31 Do not then ask anxiously ‘What can we get to eat?’ or ‘What can we get to drink?’ or ‘What can we get to wear?’
| ܠܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܬܐܨܦܘܢ ܐܘ ܬܐܡܪܘܢ ܡܢܐ ܢܐܟܘܠ ܐܘ ܡܢܐ ܢܫܬܐ ܐܘ ܡܢܐ ܢܬܟܤܐ |
32 All these are the things for which the nations are seeking, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
| ܟܠܗܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܡܡܐ ܗܘ ܒܥܝܢ ܠܗܝܢ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܝܕܥ ܕܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܬܒܥܝܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ |
33 But first seek his kingdom and the righteousness that he requires, and then all these things will be added for you.
| ܒܥܘ ܕܝܢ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܙܕܝܩܘܬܗ ܘܟܠܗܝܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܬܬܘܤܦܢ ܠܟܘܢ |
34 Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own anxieties. Every day has trouble enough of its own.
| ܠܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܬܐܨܦܘܢ ܕܡܚܪ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܡܚܪ ܝܨܦ ܕܝܠܗ ܤܦܩ ܠܗ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܒܝܫܬܗ |
