< Matthew 5 >
1 When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a hillside. He sat down [in order to teach] his disciples. They came near to him [to listen to him].
ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଦେଖି ଯୀଶୁ ପାହାଡ ଉପରକୁ ଚଢ଼ିଲେ, ପୁଣି, ବସିବା ପରେ ତାହାଙ୍କ ଶିଷ୍ୟମାନେ ତାହାଙ୍କ ପାଖକୁ ଆସିଲେ।
2 Then he began to teach them by saying,
ସେଥିରେ ସେ ମୁଖ ଫିଟାଇ ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ଶିକ୍ଷା ଦେଇ କହିବାକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ,
3 [God] is pleased with people who recognize that they have a spiritual [need]; he will allow them to be the people whose lives he rules over.
“ଆତ୍ମାରେ ଦୀନହୀନ ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗରାଜ୍ୟ ସେମାନଙ୍କର।
4 [God] is pleased with people who mourn [because they have sinned; ] they will be encouraged {he will encourage them.}
ଶୋକାର୍ତ୍ତ ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସେମାନେ ସାନ୍ତ୍ୱନାପ୍ରାପ୍ତ ହେବେ।
5 [God] is pleased with people who are meek; they will inherit the earth [that God will recreate].
ନମ୍ର ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସେମାନେ ପୃଥିବୀର ଅଧିକାରୀ ହେବେ।
6 [God] is pleased with people who sincerely [desire to live] righteously [just like they] desire to eat and drink [MET]; they will be enabled {he will enable them} to do all that he desires [MET].
ଧାର୍ମିକତା ନିମନ୍ତେ କ୍ଷୁଧିତ ଓ ତୃଷିତ ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସେମାନେ ପରିତୃପ୍ତ ହେବେ।
7 [God] is pleased with people who act mercifully; he will act mercifully to them.
ଦୟାଳୁ ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସେମାନେ ଦୟା ପ୍ରାପ୍ତ ହେବେ।
8 [God] is pleased with people who think only about that which pleases him; [some day] they will [be where] God is and will see him.
ଶୁଦ୍ଧଚିତ୍ତ ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସେମାନେ ଈଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ଦର୍ଶନ ପାଇବେ।
9 [God] is pleased with people who help other people to live peacefully; they will be considered to be {he will consider that they are} his children [MET].
ଶାନ୍ତିକାରକ ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସେମାନେ ଈଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ସନ୍ତାନ ଭାବରେ ପରିଚିତ ହେବେ।
10 [God is pleased with] people to whom evil things are done {to whom [other people] do evil things} because they [conducted themselves] righteously; he will allow them to be where he rules over people.
ଧାର୍ମିକତା ନିମନ୍ତେ ତାଡ଼ନାପ୍ରାପ୍ତ ଲୋକେ ଧନ୍ୟ, କାରଣ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗରାଜ୍ୟ ସେମାନଙ୍କର।
11 [God is pleased with] you when [other] people insult you, when [other people] do evil things to you and when [other people] say falsely [that] you are evil because [you believe in] me.
ଲୋକେ ଯେବେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ମୋʼ ସକାଶେ ନିନ୍ଦା ଓ ତାଡ଼ନା କରନ୍ତି, ପୁଣି, ମିଥ୍ୟାରେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ବିରୁଦ୍ଧରେ ସମସ୍ତ ପ୍ରକାର ମନ୍ଦ କଥା କହନ୍ତି, ତେବେ ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଧନ୍ୟ।
12 [When that happens], rejoice and be glad [DOU], because [God will give] you a great reward in heaven. [God will think highly of you], just like [he thought highly of] the prophets whom your [ancestors persecuted] long ago.
ଆନନ୍ଦ କର ଓ ଉଲ୍ଲସିତ ହୁଅ, କାରଣ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗରେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ପୁରସ୍କାର ପ୍ରଚୁର; ସେହିପରି ତ ସେମାନେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ପୂର୍ବରୁ ଆସିଥିବା ଭାବବାଦୀମାନଙ୍କୁ ତାଡ଼ନା କରିଥିଲେ।
13 “You are [able to influence] evil [people] [MTY] [and improve the way they live in order that they do not become more evil, just like] salt [is able to improve the flavor of food and to preserve it] [MET] [from spoiling]. Salt that no longer tastes salty cannot become salty again [RHQ]. As a result, that salt becomes useless. It is rejected by people, thrown on the ground, and walked on {People reject it, throw it on the ground and walk on it} [MET]. [Similarly, if the way you live no longer influences people to live in a godly manner, God will reject you].
ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ପୃଥିବୀର ଲବଣ, କିନ୍ତୁ ଲବଣ ଯଦି ସ୍ୱାଦବିହୀନ, ତେବେ ତାହା କାହିଁରେ ଲବଣାକ୍ତ ହେବ? ତାହା ଆଉ କୌଣସି କାର୍ଯ୍ୟଯୋଗ୍ୟ ନୁହେଁ, କେବଳ ବାହାରେ ପକାଯାଇ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କ ପାଦ ତଳେ ଦଳିତ ହେବାର ଯୋଗ୍ୟ।
14 You [enable] evil [people] [MTY] [to perceive God’s truth as] a light [enables people to perceive what is around them. Just like] everyone can see [LIT] [the lights of] a city on a hill [MET], [other people can see what you do].
ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଜଗତର ଜ୍ୟୋତିଃ। ପର୍ବତ ଉପରେ ସ୍ଥାପିତ ନଗର ଗୁପ୍ତ ହୋଇ ରହି ନ ପାରେ;
15 After people light a lamp, they never put it under a basket. Instead, [they put it] on a lampstand in their houses in order that it can shine on everyone there.
କିବା ଲୋକମାନେ ଦୀପ ଜାଳି ମାଣ ତଳେ ରଖନ୍ତି ନାହିଁ, ମାତ୍ର ଦୀପରୁଖା ଉପରେ ରଖନ୍ତି, ସେଥିରେ ତାହା ଗୃହରେ ଥିବା ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକକୁ ଆଲୋକ ଦିଏ।
16 [Similarly], you need to do [what is right] [MET] in such a manner that other people can see the good deeds that you do, and as a result they will praise your Father [who is] in heaven.”
ସେପ୍ରକାରେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଆଲୋକ ଲୋକଙ୍କ ସାକ୍ଷାତରେ ପ୍ରକାଶ ପାଉ, ଯେପରି ସେମାନେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ସତ୍କର୍ମ ଦେଖି ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗସ୍ଥ ପିତାଙ୍କର ମହିମା କୀର୍ତ୍ତନ କରିବେ।
17 “I came to earth, not to annul the laws [that God gave Moses] or [what] the prophets [MTY] [wrote]. Instead, I [came] to cause to happen [what the authors of those books predicted would happen]. So do not think any longer that I have come [to earth] in order that I might annul [what they wrote].
ମୁଁ ଯେ ବ୍ୟବସ୍ଥା କି ଭାବବାଦୀମାନଙ୍କ ଧର୍ମଶାସ୍ତ୍ର ଲୋପ କରିବାକୁ ଆସିଅଛି, ଏପରି ଭାବ ନାହିଁ; ଲୋପ କରିବାକୁ ଆସି ନାହିଁ ବରଂ ସଫଳ କରିବାକୁ ଆସିଅଛି।
18 Keep this in mind: [Every] point of those laws, [including those points that seem] least important, and even the smallest details of the laws [MTY] will surely be in effect [HYP, LIT] until the heavens and the earth disappear and until all [that God told their authors to write] happens.
କାରଣ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ସତ୍ୟ କହୁଅଛି, ଯେପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ଆକାଶମଣ୍ଡଳ ଓ ପୃଥିବୀ ଲୋପ ନ ପାଇବ, ସେପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ସମସ୍ତ ନ ଘଟିବା ଯାଏ ବ୍ୟବସ୍ଥାରୁ ଏକ ମାତ୍ରା କି ଏକ ବିନ୍ଦୁ କୌଣସି ପ୍ରକାରେ ଲୋପ ପାଇବ ନାହିଁ।
19 Since [all God’s laws are important], if anyone disobeys any of those commandments, [even if it would be] one of the least [important ones], and if that person teaches people [to disobey any of those commandments], it will be said {[God] will say} that that person is the least [important] of those in the place where [EUP] God rules. But those who obey [those commandments] and teach [other people to obey them, it will be said] {[God] will say} that they are very important among those that God rules.
ଅତଏବ ଯେ କେହି ଏହି ସମସ୍ତ କ୍ଷୁଦ୍ରତମ ଆଜ୍ଞା ମଧ୍ୟରୁ କୌଣସି ଗୋଟିଏ ଆଜ୍ଞା ଅମାନ୍ୟ କରେ ଓ ଲୋକଙ୍କୁ ସେହି ପ୍ରକାରେ ଶିକ୍ଷା ଦିଏ, ସେ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗରାଜ୍ୟରେ କ୍ଷୁଦ୍ରତମ ବୋଲି ପରିଚିତ ହେବ; କିନ୍ତୁ ଯେକେହି ସେହି ସମସ୍ତ ପାଳନ କରେ ଓ ଶିକ୍ଷା ଦିଏ, ସେ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗରାଜ୍ୟରେ ମହାନ ବୋଲି ପରିଚିତ ହେବ।
20 Keep this in mind: [You assume that] the Pharisees and the men who teach our laws [faithfully obey] what God commands. But if you do not obey those laws better than they obey them, you will by no means enter the place where God rules.”
କାରଣ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କହୁଅଛି, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ଧାର୍ମିକତା ଶାସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ଓ ଫାରୂଶୀମାନଙ୍କ ଧାର୍ମିକତା ଅପେକ୍ଷା ଅଧିକ ନ ହେଲେ ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ କୌଣସି ପ୍ରକାରେ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗରାଜ୍ୟରେ ପ୍ରବେଶ କରିବ ନାହିଁ।
21 “You have heard [your religious teachers say] that it was said {that [Moses] said} to your ancestors, ‘Do not murder [anyone.’ This implied that] if someone murders [another person], the judge will condemn that person [and] sentence him to be [executed] {[say that someone must execute him]}.
ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଶୁଣିଅଛ ଯେ, ପୁରାତନ କାଳର ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ କୁହାଯାଇଥିଲା, ‘ନରହତ୍ୟା କର ନାହିଁ, ଆଉ ଯେ କେହି ନରହତ୍ୟା କରେ ସେ ବିଚାରସ୍ଥାନରେ ଦଣ୍ଡନୀୟ ହେବ।’
22 But what I say to you is this: [If you are] angry with someone, [God] will judge you. If you say to someone, ‘[You are worthless],’ the Jewish Council will judge you. If you [hate someone], and say to them 'You fool!' you. yourself, will be in danger of being thrown into the fires in hell. (Geenna )
କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କହୁଅଛି, ଯେ କେହି ଆପଣା ଭାଇ ଉପରେ କ୍ରୋଧ କରେ, ସେ ବିଚାରସ୍ଥାନରେ ଦଣ୍ଡନୀୟ ହେବ। ପୁଣି, ଯେ କେହି ଆପଣା ଭାଇ କି ‘ମୂର୍ଖ’ ବୋଲି କହେ, ସେ ମହାସଭାରେ ଦଣ୍ଡିତ ହେବ; ଆଉ ଯେ କେହି ‘ପାଷାଣ୍ଡ’ ବୋଲି କହେ, ସେ ଅଗ୍ନିମୟ ନର୍କରେ ଦଣ୍ଡନୀୟ ହେବ। (Geenna )
23 So, when you take your gift [for God] to the altar, if you remember that you have offended someone,
ଅତଏବ ଯଦି ବେଦି ନିକଟକୁ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ନିଜର ନୈବେଦ୍ୟ ଆଣୁଥିବା ସମୟରେ ତୁମ୍ଭ ବିରୁଦ୍ଧରେ ତୁମ୍ଭ ଭାଇର କୌଣସି କଥା ଅଛି ବୋଲି ସେଠାରେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ମନେ ପଡ଼େ,
24 leave your gift by the altar, and first go [to the person you have offended]. Tell that person that you are sorry for what you have done, and ask that person to forgive you. Then go back and offer your gift [to God].
ତାହାହେଲେ ସେହି ସ୍ଥାନରେ ବେଦି ସମ୍ମୁଖରେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ନୈବେଦ୍ୟ ଥୋଇଦେଇ ଚାଲିଯାଅ, ଆଗେ ନିଜ ଭାଇ ସାଙ୍ଗରେ ମିଳିତ ହୁଅ, ଆଉ ତାହା ପରେ ଆସି ତୁମ୍ଭର ନୈବେଦ୍ୟ ଉତ୍ସର୍ଗ କର।
25 [Also], when a fellow citizen [takes you to court in order to] accuse you, settle accounts with that person quickly while you are walking with that person [to court]. Do that [while there still is time to do so] in order that he will not take you to the judge, [because if] the judge [favors the person who is accusing you, he will declare that you are guilty and send you] to the prison guard, and the prison guard will put you in prison.
ତୁମ୍ଭର ବିବାଦୀ ସହିତ ବାଟରେ ଥିବା ସମୟରେ ଶୀଘ୍ର ତାହା ପ୍ରତି ମିଳନର ଭାବ ଦେଖାଅ, କାଳେ ବିବାଦୀ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ବିଚାରକର୍ତ୍ତାଙ୍କ ହସ୍ତରେ ସମର୍ପଣ କରିବ, ପୁଣି, ବିଚାରକର୍ତ୍ତା ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ପଦାତିକ ହସ୍ତରେ ସମର୍ପଣ କରିବେ, ଆଉ ତୁମ୍ଭେ କାରାଗାରରେ ନିକ୍ଷିପ୍ତ ହେବ।
26 Keep this in mind: [If you go to prison], you will never get out [because you will never be able to] pay all that the judge says that you owe [MET]. [And remember also that] you [ought to settle accounts with God before you die, too].”
ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ସତ୍ୟ କହୁଅଛି, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଶେଷ ପାହୁଲାଟି ନ ଶୁଝିବା ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ସେ ସ୍ଥାନରୁ କୌଣସି ପ୍ରକାରେ ବାହାରି ଆସିପାରିବ ନାହିଁ।
27 “You have heard [God’s] commandment, ‘Do not commit adultery.’
ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଶୁଣିଅଛ, ଉକ୍ତ ଅଛି, ‘ବ୍ୟଭିଚାର କର ନାହିଁ।’
28 But what I say to you is this: If a man only looks at a woman desiring to have sex with her, [God considers that] his doing that [MET] is sin.
କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କହୁଅଛି, ଯେ କେହି କୌଣସି ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ ପ୍ରତି କାମ-ଭାବରେ ଦୃଷ୍ଟିପାତ କରେ, ସେ ତାହା ସଙ୍ଗରେ ମନେ ମନେ ବ୍ୟଭିଚାର କଲାଣି।
29 If because of what you see [MTY] you [are tempted to] sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [HYP] [to avoid sinning, do it!] It is good [that you not sin and] as a result [go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both of] your eyes. But it is not good [that you continue to have two eyes and sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell. (Geenna )
ଆଉ ତୁମ୍ଭ ଦକ୍ଷିଣ ଚକ୍ଷୁ ଯେବେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ବିଘ୍ନର କାରଣ ହୁଏ, ତେବେ ତାହା ଉପାଡ଼ି ଫୋପାଡ଼ି ଦିଅ, କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭର ସମସ୍ତ ଶରୀର ନର୍କରେ ପଡ଼ିବା ଅପେକ୍ଷା ଗୋଟିଏ ଅଙ୍ଗ ନଷ୍ଟ ହେବା ତୁମ୍ଭ ପକ୍ଷରେ ଲାଭଜନକ। (Geenna )
30 If you are [tempted to] use one of your hands to sin [MTY], [stop using your hand. Even if you have to] cut your hand off and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good [that you do not sin and as a result you go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both] of your [hands]. But it is not good [that you sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell.” (Geenna )
ପୁଣି, ତୁମ୍ଭର ଦକ୍ଷିଣ ହସ୍ତ ଯେବେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ବିଘ୍ନର କାରଣ ହୁଏ, ତେବେ ତାହା କାଟି ଫୋପାଡ଼ିଦିଅ, କାରଣ ତୁମ୍ଭର ସମସ୍ତ ଶରୀର ନର୍କରେ ପଡ଼ିବା ଅପେକ୍ଷା ଗୋଟିଏ ଅଙ୍ଗ ନଷ୍ଟ ହେବା ତୁମ୍ଭ ପକ୍ଷରେ ଲାଭଜନକ। (Geenna )
31 “It is written {[Moses] wrote}, ‘If a man is divorcing his wife, he should write a document [on which he states that he is] divorcing her.’
ଆହୁରି ଉକ୍ତ ଅଛି, ‘ଯେ କେହି ଆପଣା ସ୍ତ୍ରୀକୁ ପରିତ୍ୟାଗ କରେ, ସେ ତାହାକୁ ଛାଡ଼ପତ୍ର ଦେଉ।’
32 But [now listen to what] I say to you: [A man] may [divorce his wife] only if she has committed adultery, [and not for any other reason]. If a man divorces his wife [for any other reason, and he has sex with another woman], he makes his wife become one against whom he has committed adultery, [because in God’s estimation she still is his wife]. Also, if a man marries a woman who is divorced {whose husband has divorced her}, [God considers] him [guilty of] committing adultery.”
କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କହୁଅଛି, ଯେ କେହି ଆପଣା ସ୍ତ୍ରୀକୁ ବ୍ୟଭିଚାର ଦୋଷ ବିନା ଅନ୍ୟ କାରଣରୁ ପରିତ୍ୟାଗ କରେ, ସେ ତାହାକୁ ବ୍ୟଭିଚାରିଣୀ କରାଏ; ଆଉ ଯେ କେହି ପରିତ୍ୟକ୍ତା ସ୍ତ୍ରୀକୁ ବିବାହ କରେ, ସେ ବ୍ୟଭିଚାର କରେ।
33 “You have also heard [your religious teachers say] that it was written {that [Moses] wrote} to your ancestors, ‘Make sure that you do what you promised the Lord that you would do!’ [DOU]
ପୁଣି, ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଶୁଣିଅଛ ଯେ, ପୁରାତନ କାଳର ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ କୁହାଯାଇଥିଲା, ‘ତୁମ୍ଭେ ମିଥ୍ୟା ଶପଥ କର ନାହିଁ ମାତ୍ର ଆପଣା ଶପଥସବୁ ପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଉଦ୍ଦେଶ୍ୟରେ ପାଳନ କରିବ।’
34 But [now listen to what] I say to you: Never promise to do anything and then ask a superior being to affirm [that what you are saying will happen. For example, do] not [promise that you will give something and then ask spiritual beings in] heaven [MTY] [to affirm that you will do it], because heaven is where God [sits] on his throne [MTY] [to rule over people].
କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କହୁଅଛି, ଆଦୌ ଶପଥ କର ନାହିଁ; ସ୍ୱର୍ଗର ଶପଥ କର ନାହିଁ, କାରଣ ତାହା ଈଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ସିଂହାସନ;
35 [Also, do] not [promise that you will give something and then ask spiritual beings] on earth [MTY] [to affirm that you will do it], because the earth is where God rests his feet [MET]. [Also, do] not [promise that you will do something and ask religious authorities] in Jerusalem [to affirm that you will do it], because Jerusalem is the city where [God], the great King [rules].
କିମ୍ବା ପୃଥିବୀର ଶପଥ କର ନାହିଁ, କାରଣ ତାହା ତାହାଙ୍କର ପାଦପୀଠ; ଯିରୂଶାଲମ ସହରର ଶପଥ କର ନାହିଁ, କାରଣ ତାହା ମହାରାଜାଙ୍କ ନଗରୀ;
36 [Also, do not promise that you will do something and then say that] your head [should be cut off] {[someone should cut off] your head} [if you do not do it]. You are not [even] able to [change the color of the hair of your head by] making one [black] hair white or one [white] hair black.
ଆପଣା ମସ୍ତକର ଶପଥ କର ନାହିଁ, କାରଣ ତାହାର ଗୋଟିଏ କେଶ ଧଳା ବା କଳା କରିବାକୁ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶକ୍ତି ନାହିଁ।
37 [If you talk about doing something], just say ‘Yes, I [will do it],’ or ‘No, I [will not do it].’ [If you say] anything more than that, it is from [Satan], the Evil One.”
କିନ୍ତୁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ହଁ କଥା ‘ହଁ’ ହେଉ, ନା କଥା ‘ନା’ ହେଉ; ଏଥିରୁ ଯାହା ଅଧିକ, ତାହା ମନ୍ଦରୁ ଜନ୍ମେ।
38 “You have heard [your religious teachers say] that [it is written] {[Moses wrote]}, ‘[Retaliate like this]: [If someone damages] one of your eyes, [someone should damage] one of that person’s eyes. [If someone damages] one of your teeth, [someone should damage] one of that person’s teeth.’
ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଶୁଣିଅଛ, ଉକ୍ତ ଅଛି, ‘ଚକ୍ଷୁର ପରିବର୍ତ୍ତେ ଚକ୍ଷୁ ଓ ଦନ୍ତର ପରିବର୍ତ୍ତେ ଦନ୍ତ;’
39 But [now listen to what] I say to you: Do not take revenge for evil [deeds done] {[that other people do]} [to you]. Instead, if someone [insults you by] striking you on one cheek, turn your other cheek toward that person [in order that he can strike it also].
କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କହୁଅଛି, ଦୁଷ୍ଟର ପ୍ରତିରୋଧ କର ନାହିଁ, ମାତ୍ର ଯେ କେହି ତୁମ୍ଭର ଡାହାଣ ଗାଲରେ ଚାପୁଡ଼ା ମାରେ, ତାହାକୁ ଅନ୍ୟ ଗାଲ ମଧ୍ୟ ଦେଖାଇଦିଅ।
40 If someone wants to sue you and take your (inner garment/shirt), give him your (outer garment/coat) also.
ଆଉ କେହି ଯଦି ତୁମ୍ଭ ସହିତ ବିଚାରସ୍ଥାନରେ ବିବାଦ କରି ତୁମ୍ଭର ଅଙ୍ଗରଖା ନେବାକୁ ଇଚ୍ଛା କରେ, ତାହାକୁ ବସ୍ତ୍ର ମଧ୍ୟ ଦେଇଦିଅ।
41 If a [military authority] compels you to go with him one mile [and carry his gear], go with him two miles [and carry his gear].
ପୁଣି, ଯେ କେହି ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ କୋଶେ ଯିବା ପାଇଁ ବାଧ୍ୟ କରେ, ତାହା ସାଙ୍ଗରେ ଦୁଇ କୋଶ ଯାଅ।
42 Also, if someone asks you for [something], give [him what he is asking for]. If someone requests you to lend him [something], do not refuse [to lend it to him].”
ଯେ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ମାଗେ, ତାହାକୁ ଦିଅ, ପୁଣି, ଯେ ତୁମ୍ଭଠାରୁ ଋଣ ନେବାକୁ ଇଚ୍ଛା କରେ, ତାହା ପ୍ରତି ବିମୁଖ ହୁଅ ନାହିଁ।
43 “You have heard [your religious teachers say that it is written that Moses wrote], ‘Love the citizens of your country and hate your enemies.’
ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଶୁଣିଅଛ, ଉକ୍ତ ଅଛି, ‘ତୁମ୍ଭର ପ୍ରତିବାସୀକୁ ପ୍ରେମ କର ଓ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶତ୍ରୁକୁ ଘୃଣା କର।’
44 But [now listen to what] I say to you: Love your enemies [as well as your friends], and pray for those who cause you to suffer.
କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କହୁଅଛି, ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କୁ ପ୍ରେମ କର, ପୁଣି, ଯେଉଁମାନେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ତାଡ଼ନା କରନ୍ତି, ସେମାନଙ୍କ ନିମନ୍ତେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କର,
45 Do that in order to imitate what [God], your Father [who is] in heaven, does. He desires that you [MET] do [like he does]. [He acts kindly to all people. For example, he causes] the sun to shine [equally] on wicked [people] and on good [people], and [he sends] rain [both] on righteous [people] and on unrighteous [people].
ଯେପରି ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗସ୍ଥ ପିତାଙ୍କର ସନ୍ତାନ ହେବ; ସେ ତ ଦୁଷ୍ଟ ଓ ସନ୍ଥ ଉଭୟଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ଆପଣା ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟ ଉଦୟ କରାନ୍ତି, ପୁଣି, ଧାର୍ମିକ ଓ ଅଧାର୍ମିକମାନଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ବୃଷ୍ଟି ବର୍ଷାନ୍ତି।
46 If you love [only] the people who love you, ([do not expect God to] reward you [in heaven]!/will [God] reward you [in heaven]?) [RHQ] [This is based on the fact that everyone], even the tax collectors, [who you think are very great sinners], love [RHQ] those who love them. [If you act like them], ([you are not any different from tax collectors!/in what way are you different from tax collectors]?) [RHQ]
ଆଉ ଯେଉଁମାନେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ପ୍ରେମ କରନ୍ତି, ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ପ୍ରେମ କଲେ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର କି ପୁରସ୍କାର? କରଗ୍ରାହୀମାନେ ସୁଦ୍ଧା କଅଣ ତାହା କରନ୍ତି ନାହିଁ?
47 If you want [God] to bless only your friends, (you are not acting any better than other people!/are you acting any better than other people?) [RHQ] Even the non-Jews, [who you think sin very much] (OR, [you think are unacceptable to God]), want God to bless their friends [RHQ], [but God does not reward them for that].
ଆଉ ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଯଦି କେବଳ ନିଜ ନିଜ ଭାଇମାନଙ୍କୁ ନମସ୍କାର କର, ତେବେ ଅଧିକ କଅଣ କର? ଅଣଯିହୁଦୀମାନେ ସୁଦ୍ଧା କଅଣ ତାହା କରନ୍ତି ନାହିଁ?
48 [You need to love those who do not love you], and in that way become perfect as [God] your Father, [who is] in heaven, is perfect.”
ଅତଏବ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗସ୍ଥ ପିତା ଯେପରି ସିଦ୍ଧ, ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ମଧ୍ୟ ସେହିପରି ସିଦ୍ଧ ହୁଅ।
