Mathayo 7
1 “Mũtigaciirithanagie nĩgeetha na inyuĩ mũtikanaciirithio.
JUDGE not, that ye be not judged.
2 Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa mũtuagĩra andũ arĩa angĩ ciira, noguo na inyuĩ mũgaatuĩrwo ciira, na gĩthimi kĩrĩa mũthimanagĩra nakĩo, no kĩo mũrĩthimagĩrwo nakĩo.
For with the same judgment ye judge others, shall ye be judged: and with the measure ye mete, shall it be measured to you again.
3 “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga wone kĩhuti kĩrĩa kĩrĩ riitho rĩa mũrũ wa thoguo, no ũkaaga kuona mũgogo ũrĩa ũrĩ riitho rĩaku wee mwene?
And why spiest thou out the mote which is in thy brother’s eye, yet payest no attention to the beam which is in thine own eye?
4 Wahota atĩa kwĩra mũrũ wa thoguo atĩrĩ, ‘Reke ngũrute kĩhuti kĩu kĩrĩ riitho rĩaku,’ o rĩrĩa wee mwene ũrĩ na mũgogo riitho rĩaku?
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Suffer me to take the mote off from thine eye: and behold there is a beam in thine own eye?
5 Wee hinga ĩno, amba ũrute mũgogo ũcio ũrĩ riitho rĩaku, nĩguo wone wega na ũhote kũruta kĩhuti kĩrĩa kĩrĩ riitho rĩa mũrũ wa thoguo.
Thou hypocrite, take first the beam out of thine own eye and then shalt thou see clearly to take off the mote from thy brother’s eye.
6 “Mũtikanahe magui kĩndũ kĩrĩa kĩamũre, na mũtikanaikĩrie ngũrwe ruru cianyu. Mũngĩĩka ũguo-rĩ, ingĩrangĩrĩria ruru na magũrũ ma cio, icooke imũgarũrũke, imũtiihangie.
Give not that which is holy to dogs, nor cast pearls before swine; lest they tread them under foot, and turning round tear you.
7 “Hooyai na nĩmũkũheo; mathaai na nĩmũkuona; ringaringai mũrango na nĩmũkũhingũrĩrwo.
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8 Nĩgũkorwo ũrĩa wothe ũhooyaga nĩaheagwo, na ũrĩa ũmaathaga nĩonaga, na ũrĩa ũringaringaga mũrango, nĩahingũragĩrwo.
for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
9 “Na rĩrĩ, nũũ wanyu ũngĩĩtio mũgate nĩ mwana wake amũhe ihiga?
What man is there of you, of whom if his son ask a loaf, will he give him a stone?
10 Kana amwĩtie thamaki nake amũhe nyoka?
or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
11 Angĩkorwo inyuĩ, o na mũrĩ ooru, nĩmũũĩ kũhe ciana cianyu iheo njega-rĩ, githĩ Ithe wanyu ũrĩa ũrĩ igũrũ ndagakĩrĩrĩria kũhe iheo njega kũrĩ arĩa mamũhooyaga!
If ye then, evil as ye are, know how to bestow good gifts on your children; how much more will your Father who is in heaven, bestow good things on those who ask him?
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, maũndũ-inĩ mothe, ĩkagai andũ arĩa angĩ ũrĩa mũngĩenda mamwĩkage, nĩgũkorwo ũcio nĩguo Watho wa Musa na Ũrutani wa Anabii.
All things therefore whatsoever ye would be willing that men should do to you, just so do ye to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
13 “Toonyerai mũromo ũrĩa mũceke. Nĩgũkorwo mũromo nĩ mwariĩ na njĩra nĩ njariĩ ĩrĩa yerekeire rĩũrĩro, na andũ arĩa matoonyagĩra ho nĩ aingĩ.
Enter in through the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and spacious the road, which leadeth to perdition, and they are many who enter that way:
14 No mũromo nĩ mũkunderu na njĩra nĩ njeke ĩrĩa ĩkinyaga muoyo-inĩ, na andũ arĩa mamĩonaga nĩ anini.
because strait is the gate, and narrow the road, which leadeth to life, and they are but a few who find it.
15 “Mwĩhũgagei anabii a maheeni. Mokaga kũrĩ inyuĩ mehumbĩte njũa cia ngʼondu, no thĩinĩ wao nĩ njũũi ndĩani.
Take heed then of false prophets, who come to you in the garb of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Nĩmũrĩmamenyaga na maciaro mao. Kaĩ thabibũ igĩtuuagwo mĩtĩ-inĩ ya mĩigua, kana ngũyũ igatuuo kuuma mahiũ-inĩ ma nyeki?
By their fruits ye shall know them. Do men gather a bunch of grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 Ũguo noguo, mũtĩ wothe mwega ũciaraga maciaro mega, no mũtĩ mũũru ũciaraga maciaro mooru.
So every good tree beareth good fruits; but every bad tree in kind, produceth bad fruits.
18 Mũtĩ mwega ndũngĩciara maciaro mooru, naguo mũtĩ mũũru ndũngĩciara maciaro mega.
A good tree cannot produce bad fruits, neither can a tree bad in kind produce good fruits.
19 Mũtĩ o wothe ũtaciaraga maciaro mega nĩgũtemwo ũtemagwo ũgaikio mwaki-inĩ.
Every tree that beareth not good fruit, is cut down, and cast into the fire.
20 Ũguo nĩguo mũrĩmamenyaga nĩ ũndũ wa maciaro mao.
Well then! by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 “To mũndũ ũrĩa ũnjĩtaga, ‘Mwathani, Mwathani,’ ũgaatoonya ũthamaki wa igũrũ, no nĩ ũrĩa wĩkaga ũrĩa Baba ũrĩa ũrĩ igũrũ endaga.
Not every one who saith to me, Lord, Lord! shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22 Mũthenya ũcio aingĩ makanjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathani, Mwathani, githĩ tũtiarathaga maũndũ na rĩĩtwa rĩaku, na thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku tũkaingata ndaimono na tũkaringa ciama nyingĩ?’
Many will say unto me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have we not cast out devils? and in thy name done many miracles?
23 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngameera wega atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ ndirĩ hĩndĩ ndaamũũĩ o na rĩ. Eherai harĩ niĩ, inyuĩ mwĩkaga ũũru!’
And then will I profess unto them, that I never knew you: depart from me, ye workers of iniquity.
24 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, mũndũ o wothe ũiguaga ciugo ici ciakwa na ageeka ũrĩa ciugĩte, ahaana ta mũndũ mũũgĩ ũrĩa wakire nyũmba yake igũrũ rĩa rwaro rwa ihiga.
Every man therefore who is hearing from me these words, and puts them in practice, I will compare him to the intelligent man, who erected his house upon a rock:
25 Nayo mbura ĩkiura, na njũũĩ ikĩiyũra, naruo rũhuho rũkĩhurutana nacio ikĩhũũra nyũmba ĩyo na nditi, no nyũmba ĩyo ndĩagũire, tondũ mũthingi wayo wakĩtwo igũrũ rĩa rwaro rwa ihiga.
and the rain descended, and the rivers rushed, and the winds blew, and they beat against that house, and it fell not; for it was founded on a rock.
26 No mũndũ o wothe ũiguaga ciugo ici ciakwa na ndekaga ũrĩa ciugĩte ahaana ta mũndũ mũkĩĩgu ũrĩa wakire nyũmba yake mũthanga igũrũ.
And every man who is hearing these sayings of mine, and doth not practise them, he will resemble the foolish man, who built his house upon the sand:
27 Nayo mbura ĩkiura, njũũĩ ikĩiyũra, naruo rũhuho rũkĩhurutana nacio ikĩhũũra nyũmba ĩyo na nditi, nayo nyũmba ĩyo ĩkĩmomoka na kũgũa kũnene.”
and the rain descended, and the rivers rushed, and the winds blew, and set against that house, and it fell; and the fall of it was great.
28 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩkirie kuuga maũndũ macio, kĩrĩndĩ kĩu gĩkĩgega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrutani wake,
And it was so, that when Jesus had concluded all these sayings, the multitudes were exceedingly struck with his teaching:
29 tondũ aarutanaga ta mũndũ warĩ na ũhoti, na ti ta ũrĩa arutani ao a watho maarutanaga.
for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
