1 Hagi mago mani fruhu kna (Sabat) zupa Jisasi'a witi hozafi ufreno nevige'za, amage nentaza disaipol naga'amo'za mago'a witi raga eritaniza, zamazampi arekasegasufe'za ne'naze.
One Sabbath Jesus was walking through cornfields, and his disciples were picking the ears of wheat, and rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.
2 Ana nehazage'za mago'a Farisi vahe'mo'za anage hu'naze, nahigetma osihoma hu'neazana mani fruhukna (Sabat) zupa nehaze?
‘Why are you doing what it is not allowable to do on the Sabbath?’ asked some of the Pharisees.
3 Jisasi'a kenona zamire anage hu'ne, Tamagra hampritma ontahi'nazo, Deviti'ene, naga'anema, zamagategenoma hu'nea zana?
Jesus’ answer was, ‘Haven’t you read even of what David did, when he was hungry, he and his companions –
4 Anumzamofo seli mono nompina marerino, nagru hu'nea breti erino ne'neana, kasegemo'a o'e huno magomo'a onegahianki, pristi vahe'moke'za negahie hu'nea bretiagi, Deviti'a neneno naga'a zami'ne.
That he went into the house of God, and took the consecrated bread and ate it, and gave some to his companions, though only the priests are allowed to eat it?’
5 Nehuno zamagriku anage hu'ne, Vahemofo Mofavremo'a, Agranena mani fruhu knamofona (Sabat) Ra mani'ne.
Then Jesus added, ‘The Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.’
6 Hagi ru mani fruhu kna zupa (sabat) Jisasi'a osi mono nompi (sinagok) marerino mono naneke rempi hu'nezamigeno, mago nera tamaga kaziga azamo'a sti'nea ne' mani'ne.
On another Sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and taught; and there was a man there whose right hand was withered.
7 Kasegere ugagota hu'naza vahe'ene, Farisi vahe'mo'zanena, zamua ante'soe hu'za kete'za mani'naze. Jisasima mani fru knarema ana nera azeri'soe hanige'za, hagi zamagra kegafa erifore hu'za Agrira azerinaku, kete'za mani'naze.
The teachers of the Law and the Pharisees watched Jesus closely, to see if he would work cures on the Sabbath, so that they might find a charge to bring against him.
8 Hianagi inankna antahintahima hu'nazana, Agra ko antahino keno nehuno, azama haviza hu'nea neku huno, Ama maka vahe zamavure otinka eno! Higeno ana ne'mo'a otino e'ne.
Jesus, however, knew what was in their minds, and said to the man whose hand was withered, ‘Stand up and come out into the middle.’ The man stood up,
9 Jisasi'a zamagriku anage hu'ne, Nagra tmantahinegoe, mani fruhukna (Sabat) zupa knare zama hanuna zamo kasegefina knarera hunefi, havi tavutavama hanuna zamo knarera hu'ne? Vahera zamaza hugahumpi, vahera zamazeri haviza hugahune?
and Jesus said to them, ‘I ask you, is it allowable to do good on the Sabbath – or harm? To save a life, or let it perish?’
10 Arukrahe huno ome zamagege, eme zamagema huteno Jisasi'a azamo'ma stinea ne'ku anage huno asami'ne, Kazana arusuto! Higeno agra ana hu'ne. Anama higeno'a, azamo'a eteno so'e hu'ne.
Then, looking round at them all, he said to the man, ‘Stretch out your hand.’ The man did so; and his hand had become sound.
11 Hianagi kasegere ugagota hu'naza vahe'ene, Farisi vahera zamarimpamo'a aka hege'za, Jisasina naza huntegahune hu'za zamagra zamagra kehugantu hugama hu'naze.
But the teachers of the Law and the Pharisees were mad with rage, and consulted together what they could do to Jesus.
12 Ananknafina Jisasi'a nunamu hunaku agonarega marerino, Anumzamofontega ana kenegera nunamu ome nehigeno ko atune.
Now about that time, Jesus went out, up the hill, to pray, and spent the whole night in prayer to God.
13 Ko'ma netigeno'a amagema nentaza disaipol naga'a kehige'za ageno, anampinti 12fu'a aposolo nagare huno huhamprino, zamagi'a zami'ne.
When day came, he summoned his disciples, and chose twelve of them, whom he also named “apostles.”
14 Saimoninku Pita'e huno mago agi'a nenteno, nefunku Endru'e hu'ne. Hagi Jemisi'e, Joni'e, Filipi'e, Bataromio'e.
They were Simon (whom Jesus also named Peter), and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew,
15 Matiu'e Tomasi'e, Alfiasi nemofo Jemisi'e, Saimoni Zelati nagapinti nere.
Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon known as the Zealot,
16 Hanki Jemisi nemofo agi'a Judasi'e. Hagi mago ne'mofo agi'a Judas Isakarioti'e, ha' vahe'mokizami zamazampi Jisasina komoru huno avarentesia nere.
Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who proved a traitor.
17 Jisasi'a amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga'ane agonaregati erami'za agupofi eme otinege'za, anante amage'ma nentaza tusi'a disaipol veamo'za eritru nehazageno, maka Judia kazigatiki Jerusaletiki, Saitonitiki, Tairi hageri ankena regati'enena,
Afterwards Jesus came down the hill with them and took his stand on a level place. With him were a large crowd of his disciples, and great numbers of people from the whole of Judea, Jerusalem, and the coast district of Tyre and Sidon,
18 ana vea'mo'za Jisasi naneke nentahisageno krizimi zamazeri knamresiegu emeri atru nehazageno, agru osu havi avamumo'za zamazeri haviza hu'naza vahera zamazeri knamare'ne.
who had come to hear him and to be restored to health. Those, too, who were troubled with foul spirits were cured;
19 Hagi tusi veamo'za avako hunaku hu'naze. Na'ankure tusi'a hihamumo Agripinti ne-egeno, avako'ma hia vahera maka krizmimo'a atrezmante'ne.
and everyone in the crowd was trying to touch him, because a power went out from him which restored them all.
20 Jisasi'a amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga'a zamufi nezmageno, amanage huno zamasami'ne, Tamamunte omane vahe'mota muse hiho. Na'ankure Anumzamofo Kumara tamagrire.
Then, raising his eyes and looking at his disciples, Jesus said: ‘Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Tamagaku'ma menina nehanamota, muse hiho. Na'ankure tamagrira Anumzamo'a tamaminigetma neramu hugahaze. Zavi'ma menima netenamota muse hiho. Na'ankure tamagra kiza regahaze.
Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.
22 Vahe'moza antahi haviza huneramante'za, tamahenati'za, kema neramasu'za, Vahe'mofo Mofavrereku hu'za havi tamagima tamisazana! Anumzamo'a asomu huramantegahie.
Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they expel you from among them, and insult you, and reject your name as an evil thing – because of the Son of Man.
23 Ana knazupa musenkase hugahaze. Na'ankure mizantimimo'a rama'a monafina me'ne. Na'ankure korapa zmagehe'za anahukna kasnampa vahera huzmante'naze.
Then indeed you may be glad and dance for joy, for be sure that your reward in heaven will be great; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets.
24 Hianagi fenone vahe'mota tmasunku hutma ranknazampi manigahaze. Na'ankure tamagra ko tamazeri so'e hu'zana erivite'naze.
But alas for you who are rich, for you have had your comforts in full.
25 Menima tamagrama knare hutma ne'za neramu nehaza vahe'motma ranknazampi manigahaze. Na'ankure tmagaku hugahaze. Menima kizama neraza vahe'mota, tamagra ranknazampi manigahaze. Na'ankure tusi zavi krafa hugahaze.
Alas for you who are sated now, for you will hunger. Alas for you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.
26 Mika vahe'mo'za knare vahe mani'naze hu'za tmagriku'ma nehaza vahe'mota ranknazampi manigahaze. Na'ankure zamagri nezmageho'za havige kasnampa vahetera anahukna huzmante'naze.
Alas for you when everyone speaks well of you; for this is what their ancestors did to the false prophets.
27 Hianagi anage hu'na neramasamue, izagato kema hugeta nentahimota, ha' vahetamia zamamesi nezmanteta, antahi haviza huneramantesaza vahera, knare tamavutmava huzmanteho.
But to you who hear I say – love your enemies, show kindness to those who hate you,
28 Tamazeri havizahu ke huramantesaza vahera, asomu ke hunezmanteta, havi zamavu'zmava huramantesaza vahera nunamu huzmanteho.
bless those who curse you, pray for those who insult you.
29 Kameragente kahesimofona, rukrahe hugeno mago kaziga kameragente kaheno. Nakre kuka'a erisimofona, atregeno sioti ka'ane erino.
When someone gives one of you a blow on the cheek, offer the other cheek as well; and, when anyone takes away your cloak, do not keep back your coat either.
30 Mago'a zanku kantahi'gesagenka zami'nenana vahe'mokizmia, ete ome hanavege huzmantenka e'orio.
Give to everyone who asks of you; and, when anyone takes away what is yours, do not demand its return.
31 Kagri'ma rumo'zama so'e zmuzma hugantesazegu'ma kave'nesiankna hunka rumokizmia, kagra so'e kavukva huzmanto.
Do to others as you wish them to do to you.
32 Tamagri'ma tamesintesia vahe'ma, zamesi zmantesuta, nankna knare'za erigahaze? Na'ankure kumi' vahe'mo'zanena, zmesizmantaza vahera zamagri'enena anahukna hu'za zmesi nezmantaze.
If you love only those who love you, what thanks will be due to you? Why, even the outcast love those who love them!
33 Tamagrama, knare zamavuzmava huramantesaza vahe'ma, knare tamavutmava huzmentesuta, nankna knare'za erigahaze? Na'ankure kumi vahe'mo'za anahukna zmavuzmava zamagranena nehaze.
For, if you show kindness only to those who show kindness to you, what thanks will be due to you? Even the outcast do that!
34 Nofi'ma hu'za erite'za, ete anama'a eme tamigahaze huta antahi nezamita zamisazana, nankna knare'za erigahaze? Kumi' vahe'mo'zanena anahukna hu'za kumi vahe'mokizmia fozana erite'za, ete nofima hu'nazana ana maka eme apanesaze.
If you lend only to those from whom you expect to get something, what thanks will be due to you? Even the outcast lend to the outcast in the hope of getting as much in return!
35 Hianagi ha' vahe tamia tamavesinezmanteta knare tamavutmava hunezmanteta nofi'ma hu'za erisazana mago'zana ete nona'a erigahune huta ontahiho. E'i'nama hanuta mizantamimo'a rama'a me'nena, tamagra Marerisa Anumzamofo mofavrerami manigahaze. Na'ankure susu hunontaza vahe'ene, havi vahe'mokizmia so'e hunezmante.
But love your enemies, and show them kindness, and lend to them, never despairing. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the thankless and the bad.
36 Nafatmimo'ma asunku hunermanteaza hutma, tamagranena tamasunku huzmanteho.
Learn to be merciful – even as your Father is merciful.
37 Hagi rumokizmi mani'zama refako'ma huozmantesageno'a, tamagri mani'zanena Anumzamo'a refako huoramantegahie. Hagi Vahe'mofo kumi'zmi atrezmantesnageno'a Anumzamo'a tamagri'enena kumitamia atreramantegahie. Haviza huramantesaza vahe'mokizmia kumizmi atrezmante'nage'za tamagri'enena atreramantegahaze.
Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
38 Vahe'ma tamagrama zaminageno'a tamagri'enena anazanke huno Anumzamo'a neramino, knare'za huno rentrako traku huno tamamina, aviteno herafiramino evugahie. Na'ankure tamagrama vahe'ma zamisnaza avamente, tamagri'enena anazanke huno tamigahie.
Give, and others will give to you. A generous measure, pressed and shaken down, and running over, will they pour into your lap; for the standard you use will be the standard used for you.’
39 Jisasi'a anage huno fronka kea zamasami'ne. Avu asuhu ne'mo'a, ete mago avu asuhu nera avazu huno vugahifi? I'o zanagra ana taregamoke kerifi uramigaha'e.
Then, speaking in parables, Jesus said, ‘Can one blind person guide another? Will they not both fall into a ditch?
40 Mago avo noma nehimo'a, rempima humi nera agateore'ne. Hianagi iza'o rempima humia antahiza eri vagareteno rempima huzami vahekna nehie.
A student is not above their teacher; yet every finished student will be like their teacher.
41 Na'a higenka kugusopa negafu avufima me'neana negenka, tusi'a zafa kofa kavufima me'neana ke'so'e nosane?
And why do you look at the speck of sawdust in someone’s eye, while you pay no attention at all to the plank of wood in your own?
42 Nankna hunka negafunkura, nenafuo osasi'za kavufima me'neana natregena eri atraneno nehunka, tusi'a zafa kofa kavufi me'neana ke so'e nosano? Kagra tavre vahe mani'nane! Ese'zana tusi'a zafa kofa kavufi me'neana eri atrenka, kavua ke so'e nehunka, osi kugusopa negafu avufi me'neana eritregahane.
How can you say to your friend “Friend, let me take out the speck in your eye,” while you yourself do not see the plank in your own? Hypocrite! Take out the plank from your own eye first, and then you will see clearly how to take out the speck in your friend’s.
43 Na'ankure knare zafamo'a havi raga'a renonte. Hagi havi zafamo'a knare raga renonte.
There is no such thing as a good tree bearing worthless fruit, or, on the other hand, a worthless tree bearing good fruit.
44 Na'ankure magoke magoke zafamo'a agra'a gna rgama rentenire kegahane. Ave'ave trazampintira vahe'mo'za fiki raga noragize. Ave'ave trazampintira vahe'mo'za krepi raga noragize.
For every tree is known by its own fruit. People do not gather figs off thorn bushes, nor pick a bunch of grapes off a bramble.
45 Knare vahe'mofona agu'afima knare'zama antegeno me'neazamo, knare'zana efore nehie. Hanki havi vahe'mofona agu'afina haviza antegeno aviteno me'neazamo, haviza efore nehie. Na'ankure nanknazama agu'afima me'neazana, agi'mo hufore nehie.
A good person, from the good stores of their heart, brings out what is good; while a bad person, from their bad stores, brings out what is bad. For what fills someone’s heart will rise to their lips.
46 Nahigeta Nagrikura, Ramo'e Ramo'e nehutma, kema tmasamuazana nosaze?
Why do you call me “Master! Master!” and yet fail to do what I tell you?
47 Iza'o Nagrite ne-eno huankema antahino amage' anankemofo ante'mofona, Nagra kaveri hugahue. Ana'mo'a ama anahu'kna hu'ne.
Everyone who comes to me and listens to my teaching and acts on it – I will show you to whom they may be compared.
48 Agra mago ne'mo'ma noma kiankna hu'neankino, mopa kafino uramino have omeri fore huteno, ana agofetu ki'ne. Tima hageno eno ana nona eritagana vazinaku hianagi, eri torera osugahie. Na'ankure hanave nentake hu'nea havere nona ki'ne.
They may be compared to a person building a house, who dug, and went deep, and laid the foundation on the rock. Then, when a flood came, the river swept down on that house, but had no power to shake it, because it had been built well.
49 Hianagi Nagri kema nentahino amagenonte'mo'a, noma azeri hanaveti trara onteneno kahepampi noma kiankna hu'neankino tima hageno eno emeri tagana vazitregeno, pasaru huno evu ramino haviza hiankna hugahie.
But those who have listened and not acted on what they have heard may be compared to a person who built a house on the ground without any foundation. The river swept down on it, and the house immediately collapsed; and great was the crash that followed.’
