Matthew 5
1 And having seen the multitudes, he went up to the mount, and he having sat down, his disciples came to him,
Koro kane oneno oganda maduongʼ, nodhi e bath got mi obet piny. Jopuonjrene nobiro ire,
2 and having opened his mouth, he was teaching them, saying:
kendo nochako puonjogi. Nowachonegi niya,
3 'Happy the poor in spirit — because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
“Joma odhier gie chunygi gin joma ogwedhi, nimar pinyruodh polo en margi.
4 'Happy the mourning — because they shall be comforted.
Joma ywak gin joma ogwedhi, nimar ibiro hoyogi.
5 'Happy the meek — because they shall inherit the land.
Joma muol gin joma ogwedhi nimar piny nobed girkeni margi.
6 'Happy those hungering and thirsting for righteousness — because they shall be filled.
Ogwedh jogo makech kayo kendo riyo mar tim makare oloyo, nimar gibiro yiengʼ.
7 'Happy the kind — because they shall find kindness.
Joma kecho ji gin joma ogwedhi, nimar ibiro kechgi.
8 'Happy the clean in heart — because they shall see God.
Jomaler gie chunygi gin joma ogwedhi, nimar ginine Nyasaye.
9 'Happy the peacemakers — because they shall be called Sons of God.
Joma kelo kwe gin joma ogwedhi, nimar noluong-gi ni nyithind Nyasaye.
10 'Happy those persecuted for righteousness' sake — because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
Joma isando nikech tim makare gin joma ogwedhi, nimar pinyruodh polo en margi.
11 'Happy are ye whenever they may reproach you, and may persecute, and may say any evil thing against you falsely for my sake —
“Un joma ogwedhi ka ji yanyou kendo sandou kendo hangonu wach ni usetimo kit gik maricho duto nikech an.
12 rejoice ye and be glad, because your reward [is] great in the heavens, for thus did they persecute the prophets who were before you.
Beduru mamor kendo moil, nikech poku duongʼ e polo, nimar jonabi mane okwongonu bende negisando mana kamano.”
13 'Ye are the salt of the land, but if the salt may lose savour, in what shall it be salted? for nothing is it good henceforth, except to be cast without, and to be trodden down by men.
“Un e chumbi mar piny. To chumbi ka ndhathe orumo, to ere kaka dimiye obed gi ndhathe kendo? Koro onge konyruok mokelo, makmana ni ipuke oko kendo ji nyone piny gi tiendegi.
14 'Ye are the light of the world, a city set upon a mount is not able to be hid;
“Un e ler mar piny. Dala matin moger ewi thur ok nyal pandi.
15 nor do they light a lamp, and put it under the measure, but on the lamp-stand, and it shineth to all those in the house;
Kamano bende, ji ok mok taya bangʼe giume gi bakul. Kar timo kamano to gikete ewi rachungi taya kendo ochiwo ler ne ji duto mantiere ei ot.
16 so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and may glorify your Father who [is] in the heavens.
Un bende timuru kamano. Neuru ni ler maru rieny e dier ji, mondo gine timbeu mabeyo kendo gipak Wuonu manie polo.
17 'Do not suppose that I came to throw down the law or the prophets — I did not come to throw down, but to fulfil;
“Kik upar ni asebiro mondo aketh Chik kata Jonabi. Ok asebiro mondo akethgi, to asebiro mar chopogi.
18 for, verily I say to you, till that the heaven and the earth may pass away, one iota or one tittle may not pass away from the law, till that all may come to pass.
Awachonu adier ni nyaka chop chiengʼ ma polo gi piny nolal nono, onge nukta matinie mogik kata kido moro amora mar kalam manolal kuom Chik, nyaka gik moko duto chop kargi.
19 'Whoever therefore may loose one of these commands — the least — and may teach men so, least he shall be called in the reign of the heavens, but whoever may do and may teach [them], he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.
Ngʼato angʼata moketho achiel kuom chike matindoe mogik kuom Chikegi, kendo mopuonjo joma moko mondo otim kamano, nokaw kaka ngʼat matinie mogik e pinyruodh polo, to ngʼato angʼata maluwo kendo puonjo ji chikegi nokaw kaka ngʼama duongʼ e pinyruodh polo.
20 'For I say to you, that if your righteousness may not abound above that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye may not enter to the reign of the heavens.
Nimar awachonu ni ka ok ber maru oyombo mano mar jo-Farisai gi mar jopuonj chik to ok unudonji e pinyruodh polo ngangʼ.
21 'Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not kill, and whoever may kill shall be in danger of the judgment;
“Usewinjo ni ne owach ne joma chon ni, ‘Kik ineki, kendo ngʼato angʼata moneko ibiro ngʼadne bura.’
22 but I — I say to you, that every one who is angry at his brother without cause, shall be in danger of the judgment, and whoever may say to his brother, Empty fellow! shall be in danger of the sanhedrim, and whoever may say, Rebel! shall be in danger of the gehenna of the fire. (Geenna g1067)
Anto anyisou ni ngʼato angʼata ma mirima omako gi nyawadgi ibiro ngʼadne bura. Bende, ngʼato angʼata mowachone nyawadgi ni, ‘Raka,’ ma tiende ni ifuwo, nyaka yal e buch jo-Sanhedrin. To ngʼato angʼata mowacho ni, ‘Ifuwo nade,’ biro neno chandruok mar mach mar Gehena. (Geenna g1067)
23 'If, therefore, thou mayest bring thy gift to the altar, and there mayest remember that thy brother hath anything against thee,
“Kuom mano, ka ichiwo michni e nyim kendo mar misango to iparo ka in kanyo ni nyawadu ni kodi gi wach,
24 leave there thy gift before the altar, and go — first be reconciled to thy brother, and then having come bring thy gift.
to we michnino piny kanyo e nyim kendo mar misango. Kuong idhi ilos kindi gi nyawadu; eka ibi ichiw michni.
25 'Be agreeing with thy opponent quickly, while thou art in the way with him, that the opponent may not deliver thee to the judge, and the judge may deliver thee to the officer, and to prison thou mayest be cast,
“Los weche piyo piyo gi ngʼama odonjoni madwa teri e od bura. Tim kamano kapod un kode e yo, nono to onyalo keti e lwet jangʼad bura to jangʼad bura nyalo keti e lwet askari, kendo inyalo boli e od twech.
26 verily I say to thee, thou mayest not come forth thence till that thou mayest pay the last farthing.
Awachoni adier ni ok niwuog oko nyaka ichul faini duto monego ichul ma ok orem kata ndururu.
27 'Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not commit adultery;
“Usewinjo ni ne owach ni, ‘Kik iterri.’
28 but I — I say to you, that every one who is looking on a woman to desire her, did already commit adultery with her in his heart.
Anto anyisou ni ngʼato angʼata morango dhako gi gombo oseterore kode gi ei chunye.
29 'But, if thy right eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Ka wangʼi ma korachwich miyo itimo richo to lodhe oko kendo iwite. Ber moloyo ka iwito fuon-ni achiel mar ringri moloyo ka ringri duto owiti e gehena. (Geenna g1067)
30 'And, if thy right hand doth cause thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Kamano bende ka lweti ma korachwich miyo itimo richo, to ngʼade oko iwite. Ber moloyo ka iwito fuon-ni achiel moloyo ka ringri duto odhi e gehena. (Geenna g1067)
31 'And it was said, That whoever may put away his wife, let him give to her a writing of divorce;
“Osewachi ni, ngʼato angʼata moketho keny gi chiege nyaka miye barup weruok mar ketho keny.
32 but I — I say to you, that whoever may put away his wife, save for the matter of whoredom, doth make her to commit adultery; and whoever may marry her who hath been put away doth commit adultery.
An to awachonu ni ngʼato angʼata moriembo chiege nikech wach moro amora makmana richo mar terruok, miyo chiegeno donjo e richo mar terruok, kendo ngʼato angʼata mokendo dhako makamano bende donjo e richo mar terruok.
33 'Again, ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not swear falsely, but thou shalt pay to the Lord thine oaths;
“Usewinjo bende ni nowachi ni, ‘Kik iketh kwongʼruok, to riti kwongʼruok moro amora misetimone Ruoth Nyasaye.’
34 but I — I say to you, not to swear at all; neither by the heaven, because it is the throne of God,
Anto anyisou ni kik ukwongʼru kata matin: Kik ukwongʼru gi polo nimar en e kom loch mar Nyasaye;
35 nor by the earth, because it is His footstool, nor by Jerusalem, because it is a city of a great king,
kata gi piny, nimar en e raten tiende; kata gi Jerusalem, nikech en e dala maduongʼ mar Ruoth Maduongʼ.
36 nor by thy head mayest thou swear, because thou art not able one hair to make white or black;
Kendo kik ukwongʼru gi wiu, nikech ok unyal loko yie wich achiel bedo marachar kata maratengʼ.
37 but let your word be, Yes, Yes, No, No, and that which is more than these is of the evil.
Neuru ni ‘Ee maru’ obedo ‘Ee,’ kendo ‘Ooyo’ obedo ‘Ooyo.’ Gimoro amora mopogore gimaa en gima oa kuom ngʼat marach.
38 'Ye heard that it was said: Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth;
“Usewinjo ni nowachi ni, ‘Wangʼ kar wangʼ kendo lak kar lak.’
39 but I — I say to you, not to resist the evil, but whoever shall slap thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other;
Anto anyisou ni kik utam ngʼat marach timo gima odwaro timo. Ka ngʼato othalo lembi ma korachwich to lokne komachielo bende,
40 and whoever is willing to take thee to law, and thy coat to take — suffer to him also the cloak.
kendo ka ngʼato dwaro yalo kodi mondo okaw lawi mar akor to wene kotini bende.
41 'And whoever shall impress thee one mile, go with him two,
Ka ngʼato ochuni mondo ikowe kilomita achiel gi nus to dhi kode kilomita adek.
42 to him who is asking of thee be giving, and him who is willing to borrow from thee thou mayest not turn away.
Ka ngʼato okwayi gimoro to miyeuru, kendo kik ilok kiti ne ngʼat madwaro ni ihole gimoro.
43 'Ye heard that it was said: Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and shalt hate thine enemy;
“Usewinjo ni nowachi ni, ‘Her waduto jasiki to isin-go.’
44 but I — I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those cursing you, do good to those hating you, and pray for those accusing you falsely, and persecuting you,
Anto awachonu kama: Heruru wasiku kendo lamuru ne joma sandou,
45 that ye may be sons of your Father in the heavens, because His sun He doth cause to rise on evil and good, and He doth send rain on righteous and unrighteous.
mondo eka ubed yawuot Wuonu manie polo. En omiyo chiengʼ mare wuok ni joma richo gi joma beyo machalre, kendo ooro koth ne joma kare gi joma ok kare.
46 'For, if ye may love those loving you, what reward have ye? do not also the tax-gatherers the same?
Ka uhero mana joma oherou kende, to pok mane muyudo? Donge kata josol osuru bende timo mano?
47 and if ye may salute your brethren only, what do ye abundant? do not also the tax-gatherers so?
To ka umoso mana oweteu kende to en angʼo mutimo moloyo joma moko? Donge kata jopiny bende timo kamano?
48 ye shall therefore be perfect, as your Father who [is] in the heavens is perfect.
Kuom mano, beduru malongʼo chuth mana kaka Wuonu manie polo longʼo chuth.
