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].
Ko pa vidi ljudstvo, stopi na goro; in ko se je usedel, pristopijo k njemu učenci njegovi.
2 Then he began to teach them by saying,
Pa odpre usta svoja, ter jih je učil, govoreč;
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.
Blagor ubogim v duhu; ker njih je nebeško kraljestvo.
4 [God] is pleased with people who mourn [because they have sinned; ] they will be encouraged {he will encourage them.}
Blagor jim, kteri žalujejo; ker oni se bodo utolažili.
5 [God] is pleased with people who are meek; they will inherit the earth [that God will recreate].
Blagor krotkim; ker oni bodo podedovali zemljo.
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].
Blagor lačnim in žejnim pravice; ker oni se bodo nasitili.
7 [God] is pleased with people who act mercifully; he will act mercifully to them.
Blagor usmiljenim; ker oni bodo usmiljenje našli.
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.
Blagor jim, kteri so čistega srca; ker oni bodo Boga videli.
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].
Blagor mirovitim; ker oni se bodo sinovi Božji imenovali.
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.
Blagor pregnanim za voljo pravice; ker njih je nebeško kraljestvo.
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.
Blagor vam, kedar vas zasramoté in preženó in rekó vse hudo zoper vas, za voljo mene, pa lažejo.
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.
Radujte se in veselite, ker je plačilo vaše v nebesih veliko. Kajti tako so pregnali preroke, ki so bili pred vami.
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].
Vi ste sol zemlji. Če pa sol znorí, s čim se bo osolila? Za nič več ni, razen da se iztrese ven, in jo ljudje poteptajo.
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].
Vi ste svetilo svetu. Mesto, ktero stojí vrhu gore, ne more se skriti.
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.
Tudi ne užigajo sveče in jo devljejo pod mernik, nego na svečnik: ter sveti vsem, kteri so v hiši.
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.”
Tako naj se sveti vaše svetilo pred ljudmi, da vidijo vaša dobra dela, in slavé očeta vašega, ki je na nebesih.
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].
Ne mislite, da sem prišel podirat postavo ali preroke; nisem prišel podirat, nego izpolnjevat.
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.
Resnično vam pravim: Dokler ne prejde nebo in zemlja, ne bo izginila ne najmanja črka ali pičica iz postave, dokler se vse ne zgodí.
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.
Kdorkoli torej eno najmanjih teh zapovedi popači, in ljudí tako naučí, imenoval se bo v nebeškem kraljestvu najmanji; kdorkoli jo pa izpolni, in naučí, ta se bo velik imenoval v nebeškem kraljestvu.
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.”
Kajti pravim vam, da če ne bo pravičnost vaša veča, nego pismarjev in Farizejev, ne boste prišli v nebeško kraljestvo.
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]}.
Slišali ste, da je rečeno starim: Ne ubij; kdor pa ubije, kriv bo sodbe.
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 g1067)
A jaz vam pravim, da vsak, kdor se brez razloga jezí na brata svojega, kriv bo sodbe; kdorkoli pa reče bratu svojemu: Raka! kriv bo zbora; a kdorkoli reče: Prismoda! kriv bo peklenskega ognja. (Geenna g1067)
23 So, when you take your gift [for God] to the altar, if you remember that you have offended someone,
Če torej prineseš dar svoj k oltarju, in se tam spomeniš, da ima brat tvoj nekaj zoper tebe:
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].
Pusti dar svoj tam pred oltarjem, pa pojdi, pomiri se poprej z bratom svojim, in potem pridi in prinesi dar svoj.
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.
Sprijazni se z zopernikom svojim naglo, dokler si ž njim na poti, da te zopernik ne izročí sodniku, in te sodnik ne izročí hlapcu, in ne boš vržen v ječo.
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].”
Resnično ti pravim: Ne boš izšel odtod, dokler ne plačaš zadnjega solda.
27 “You have heard [God’s] commandment, ‘Do not commit adultery.’
Slišali ste, da je rečeno starim: Ne prešestvuj.
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.
A jaz vam pravim, da vsak, kdor pogleda na ženo, da je poželí, prešestvoval je uže ž njo v srcu svojem.
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 g1067)
Če te pa oko tvoje desno pohujšuje, izderi ga, in vrzi od sebe; kajti bolje ti je, da pogine eden udov tvojih, nego da bo vse telo tvoje vrženo v pekel. (Geenna g1067)
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 g1067)
In če te desna tvoja roka pohujšuje, odseci jo, in vrzi od sebe; kajti bolje ti je, da pogine eden udov tvojih, nego da bo vse telo tvoje vrženo v pekel. (Geenna g1067)
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.’
Rečeno je pa: Kdorkoli popustí ženo svojo, naj jej dá ločilno pismo.
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.”
A jaz vam pravim, da kdorkoli popustí ženo svojo, razen za voljo prešestvovanja, zapeljuje jo v prešestvovanje; in kdorkoli popuščeno vzeme, prešestvuje.
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]
Zopet ste slišali, da je rečeno starim: Ne prisegaj po krivem; izpolni pa Gospodu prisege svoje.
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].
A jaz vam pravim, da ne prisegajte nikakor: ne pri nebu, ker je prestol Božji;
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].
Ne pri zemlji, ker je podnožje nogam njegovim; ne pri Jeruzalemu, ker je mesto vélikega kralja.
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.
Tudi pri glavi svojej ne prisegaj, ker ne moreš ne enega lasú narediti belega ali črnega.
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.”
Govorica vaša pa bodi: Dá, dá; ne, ne. Kar je pa več od tega, to je od hudega.
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.’
Slišali ste, da je rečeno starim: Oko za oko, in zob za zob.
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].
A jaz vam pravim, da se ne upirajte hudemu: nego če te kdo udari po desnem licu, nastavi mu tudi drugo;
40 If someone wants to sue you and take your (inner garment/shirt), give him your (outer garment/coat) also.
In kdor se hoče s teboj pravdati, in suknjo tvojo vzeti, pustí mu tudi plašč;
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].
In če te kdo prisili eno miljo, pojdi ž njim dve.
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].”
Kdor te prosi, daj mu; in kdor hoče od tebe na posodbo, ne odreci mu.
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.’
Slišali ste, da je rečeno: Ljubi bližnjega svojega, in sovraži sovažnika svojega.
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.
A jaz vam pravim: Ljubite sovražnike svoje; blagoslovite tiste, kteri vas preklinjajo; delajte dobro tistim, kteri vas mrzé; in molite za tiste, kteri vas stiskajo in preganjajo:
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].
Da boste sinovi očeta svojega, ki je na nebesih. Kajti on veleva solncu svojemu, da vzhaja nad hudobnimi in dobrimi, in daje dež pravičnim in nepravičnim.
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]
Kajti če ljubite tiste, kteri ljubijo vas, kakošno plačilo boste imeli? Ne delajo li tega tudi mitarji?
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].
In če ljubite samo brate svoje, kaj delate preveč? Ne delajo li tudi mitarji tako?
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.”
Bodite vi torej popolni, kakor je popoln oče vaš, ki je na nebesih.
