Matthew 5
1 When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on the mountain. When he had sat down, his disciples came to him.
Zvino wakati achiona zvaunga akakwira mugomo, zvino wakati agara pasi vadzidzi vake vakauya kwaari;
2 He opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
akashamisa muromo wake, akavadzidzisa achiti:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vakaropafadzwa varombo pamweya; nokuti ushe hwekumatenga ndehwavo.
4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Vakaropafadzwa vanochema; nokuti ivo vachanyaradzwa.
5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Vakaropafadzwa vanyoro; nokuti ivo vachagara nhaka yenyika.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
Vakaropafadzwa vane nzara nenyota yekururama; nokuti ivo vachagutiswa.
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will obtain mercy.
Vakaropafadzwa vane tsitsi; nokuti ivo vachaitirwa tsitsi.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Vakaropafadzwa vakachena pamoyo; nokuti ivo vachaona Mwari.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
Vakaropafadzwa vanoyananisa; nokuti ivo vachanzi vana vaMwari.
10 Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vakaropafadzwa vanoshushwa nekuda kwekururama; nokuti ushe hwekumatenga ndehwavo.
11 Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil things against you falsely for my sake.
Makaropafadzwa imwi, kana vachikutukai, vachikushushai, vachikutaurirai zvakaipa zvese vachireva nhema nekuda kwangu.
12 Rejoice and be very glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For in this way people persecuted the prophets who lived before you.
Farai mupembere kwazvo, nokuti mubairo wenyu mukuru mumatenga; nokuti vakashusha saizvozvo vaporofita vakakutangirai.
13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt has lost its taste, how can it be made salty again? It is never again good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet.
Imwi muri munyu wenyika; asi kana munyu warasa kuvava, ucharungwa nei? Hauchabatsiri chinhu, asi kurasirwa kunze, utsikwe-tsikwe nevanhu.
14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
Imwi muri chiedza chenyika; guta rakamiswa pamusoro pegomo haringavanziki;
15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but rather on the lampstand, and it shines for everyone in the house.
uye mwenje havautungidzi vakauisa pasi pedengu, asi pachigadziko chemwenje, uvhenekere vese vari mumba.
16 Let your light shine before people in such a way that they see your good deeds and praise your Father who is in heaven.
Saizvozvo chiedza chenyu ngachivhenekere pamberi pevanhu, kuti vaone mabasa enyu akanaka, vagokudza Baba venyu vari kumatenga.
17 Do not think that I have come to destroy the law or the prophets. I have come not to destroy them, but to fulfill them.
Musafunga kuti ndauya kuzoparadza murairo kana vaporofita; handina kuuya kuzoparadza, asi kuzozadzisa.
18 For truly I say to you that until heaven and earth pass away, not one jot or one tittle shall in any way pass away from the law, until all things have been accomplished.
Nokuti zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Kusvikira denga nenyika zvichipfuura, vara diki rimwe kana chidodzi chimwe kubva pamurairo hazvingatongopfuuri, kusvikira zvese zvaitika.
19 Therefore whoever breaks the least one of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever keeps them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Naizvozvo ani nani anotyora umwe wemirairo midikisa iyi, akadzidzisa vanhu saizvozvo, achanzi mudikisa muushe hwekumatenga; asi ani nani anoita akaidzidzisa, iye achanzi mukuru muushe hwekumatenga.
20 For I say to you that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will in no way enter the kingdom of heaven.
Nokuti ndinoti kwamuri: Kunze kwekuti kururama kwenyu kukapfuura kwevanyori nekweVaFarisi, hamungatongopindi muushe hwekumatenga.
21 You have heard that it was said to them in ancient times, 'Do not kill,' and, 'Whoever kills will be in danger of the judgment.'
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi kune vekare: Usauraya; uye ani nani anouraya achava nemhosva yemutongo;
22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be in danger of the judgment; and whoever says to his brother, 'You worthless person!' will be in danger of the council; and whoever says, 'You fool!' will be in danger of the fire of hell. (Geenna g1067)
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Ani nani anotsamwira umwe wake pasina chikonzero, achava nemhosva yemutongo; neanoti kune umwe wake: Dununu! achava nemhosva yedare remakurukota; uye anoti: Benzi! achava nemhosva yegehena remoto. (Geenna g1067)
23 Therefore if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has anything against you,
Naizvozvo kana uchiuisa chipo chako kuaritari, ipapo ukarangarira kuti umwe wako ane chekupikisana newe,
24 leave your gift there in front of the altar, and go on your way. First be reconciled with your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
siya ipapo chipo chako pamberi pearitari, uende umbonotanga wayanana neumwe wako, ugouya wopira chipo chako.
25 Agree with your accuser quickly while you are with him on the way to court, or your accuser may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison.
Tenderana nemudzivisi wako nekukurumidza, uchiri munzira naye, zvimwe mudzivisi angakukumikidza kumutongi, mutongi akukumikidze kumupurisa, ukakandirwa mutirongo.
26 Truly I say to you, you will never come out from there until you have paid the last bit of money you owe.
Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwauri: Haungatongobudimo, kusvikira waripa kamari kekupedzisira.
27 You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.'
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi kune vekare: Usaita upombwe;
28 But I say to you that everyone who looks on a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Wese anotarisa mukadzi kuti amuchive, watoita upombwe naye mumoyo make.
29 If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is better for you that one of your body parts should perish than that your whole body should be thrown into hell. (Geenna g1067)
Uye kana ziso rako rerudyi richikugumbusa, uridzure urase kubva kwauri; nokuti zviri nani kwauri kuti umwe wemitezo yako uparare, kwete kuti muviri wako wese ukandirwe mugehena. (Geenna g1067)
30 If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you. For it is better for you that one of your body parts should perish than that your whole body should go into hell. (Geenna g1067)
Zvino kana ruoko rwako rwerudyi ruchikugumbusa, urugure urasire kure newe; nokuti zviri nani kwauri kuti umwe wemitezo yako uparare, kwete kuti muviri wako wese ukandirwe mugehena. (Geenna g1067)
31 It was also said, 'Whoever sends his wife away, let him give her a certificate of divorce.'
Zvakanziwo: Ani nani anoramba mukadzi wake, ngaamupe rugwaro rwekurambana;
32 But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress. Whoever marries her after she has been divorced commits adultery.
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Ani nani anoramba mukadzi wake, kunze kwemhosva yeupombwe, anomuitisa upombwe; uye ani nani anowana wakarambwa anoita upombwe.
33 Again, you have heard that it was said to those in ancient times, 'Do not swear a false oath, but carry out your oaths to the Lord.'
Zvekare makanzwa kuti zvakanzi kune vekare: Usapika nhema, asi uripire Ishe mhiko dzako;
34 But I say to you, swear not at all, neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Musatongopika; kana nedenga, nokuti chigaro chaMwari cheushe;
35 nor by the earth, for it is the footstool for his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
kana nenyika, nokuti chitsiko chetsoka dzake; kana neJerusarema, nokuti iguta raMambo mukuru;
36 Neither swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.
uye usapika nemusoro wako, nokuti haugoni kuita ruvhudzi rumwe ruchena kana rutema.
37 But let your speech be 'Yes, yes,' or 'No, no.' Anything that is more than this is from the evil one.
Asi shoko renyu ngarive: Hongu, hongu; kwete, kwete; chinopfuura izvi chinobva kune wakaipa.
38 You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi: Ziso neziso, uye zino nezino;
39 But I say to you, do not resist one who is evil. Instead, whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Musapikisa wakaipa; asi ani nani anokurova padama rako rerudyi, umutendeusire rimwewo.
40 If anyone wishes to go to court with you and takes away your coat, let that person also have your cloak.
Neanoda kukusungisa, nekutora shati yako, umutendere nguvo yakowo.
41 Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.
Ani nani anokumanikidza kuenda maira imwe uende naye mbiri.
42 Give to anyone who asks you, and do not turn away from anyone who wishes to borrow from you.
Ipa anokumbira kwauri, usafuratira anoda kukwereta kwauri.
43 You have heard that it was said, 'You must love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi: Ude umwe wako, uvenge muvengi wako.
44 But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
Asi ini ndinoti kwamuri: Idai vavengi venyu, ropafadzai vanokutukai, batai zvakanaka vanokuvengai, munyengeterere vanokubatai zvakaipa vachikushushai.
45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.
Kuti muve vana vaBaba venyu vari kumatenga, nokuti vanobudisira zuva ravo kune vakaipa nevakanaka, nemvura vanoinaisira vakarurama nevasakarurama.
46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you get? Do not even the tax collectors do the same thing?
Nokuti kana muchida vanokudai, mune mubairo wei? Ko, vateresiwo havaiti izvozvo here?
47 If you greet only your brothers, what do you do more than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same thing?
Uye kana muchikwazisa vamwe venyu chete, munoita zvikuru kupfuura vamwe nei? Ko, vateresiwo havaiti saizvozvo here?
48 Therefore you must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Naizvozvo imwi muve vakakwana, saBaba venyu vari kumatenga vakakwana.
