< Mathayo 7 >
1 “Mũtigaciirithanagie nĩgeetha na inyuĩ mũtikanaciirithio.
Judge not, that all of you 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 what judgment all of you judge, all of you shall be judged: and with what measure all of you mete, it shall 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 behold you the splinter that is in your brother's eye, but consider not the beam that is in your 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 will you say to your brother, Let me pull out the splinter out of your eye; and, behold, a beam is in your 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.
You hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of your own eye; and then shall you see clearly to cast out the splinter out of your 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 unto the dogs, neither cast all of you your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and return and rend you.
7 “Hooyai na nĩmũkũheo; mathaai na nĩmũkuona; ringaringai mũrango na nĩmũkũhingũrĩrwo.
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and all of you 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 asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.
9 “Na rĩrĩ, nũũ wanyu ũngĩĩtio mũgate nĩ mwana wake amũhe ihiga?
Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, 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 all of you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that 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.
Therefore all things whatsoever all of you would that men should do to you, do all of you even so 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 all of you in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
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 is the way, which leads unto life, and few there be that find it.
15 “Mwĩhũgagei anabii a maheeni. Mokaga kũrĩ inyuĩ mehumbĩte njũa cia ngʼondu, no thĩinĩ wao nĩ njũũi ndĩani.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, 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?
All of you shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Ũguo noguo, mũtĩ wothe mwega ũciaraga maciaro mega, no mũtĩ mũũru ũciaraga maciaro mooru.
Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit.
18 Mũtĩ mwega ndũngĩciara maciaro mooru, naguo mũtĩ mũũru ndũngĩciara maciaro mega.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Mũtĩ o wothe ũtaciaraga maciaro mega nĩgũtemwo ũtemagwo ũgaikio mwaki-inĩ.
Every tree that brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Ũguo nĩguo mũrĩmamenyaga nĩ ũndũ wa maciaro mao.
Wherefore by their fruits all of you 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 that says unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which 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 to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works?
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, I never knew you: depart from me, all of you that work 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.
Therefore whosoever hears these sayings (logos) of mine, and does them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built 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 floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon 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 one that hears these sayings (logos) of mine, and does them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which 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 floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
28 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩkirie kuuga maũndũ macio, kĩrĩndĩ kĩu gĩkĩgega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrutani wake,
And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, (logos) the people were astonished at his doctrine:
29 tondũ aarutanaga ta mũndũ warĩ na ũhoti, na ti ta ũrĩa arutani ao a watho maarutanaga.
For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
