Matiu 6
1 Vahe'mofo avure fatgo avu'ava nehanage'za kagezankura kva hiho, monafi mani'nea Neramafa'a mizana ontamigahie.
‘Take care not to perform your religious duties in public in order to be seen by others; if you do, your Father who is in heaven has no reward for you.
2 Hanki kagrama zamunte omane vahe'ma zamaza hunka keonke'zama zamisunka, ufenkrafahu vahera huzmantege'za ufre'za ugota osiho, havige vahe'mo'za mono nompine (sinagog) kantegane nehaza knara osuo, e'ina hanankeno'a vahe'mo'za kagi erisaga hugahaze. Nagra tamage hu'na nermasmue, hago zamagra mizazmi'a eri'naze.
Therefore, when you do acts of charity, do not have a trumpet blown in front of you, as hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets so that people will praise them. There, I tell you, is their reward!
3 Hianagi zamunte omane vahe zamaza hanunka, atregeno hoga kazamo'a, tamaga kazamo'ma hania zana onkeno,
But, when you do acts of charity, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
4 e'ina hunka oku'a amigeno, oku'a me'negeno negea Negafa Anumzamo'a mizana kamigahie.
so that your charity may be secret; and your Father, who sees what is in secret, will reward you.
5 Nunamuma hunaku'ma hanuta, havige vahe'mo'za nehazankna osiho. Na'ankure zamagra mono nompi oti'za mani'ne'za, megi'a kampine oti'ne'za nunamu nehazage'za, vahe'mo'za negazazana osiho. Tamage hu'na Nagra neramasmue, zamagra ko mizazimia eri'naze.
‘And, when you pray, you are not to behave as hypocrites do. They like to pray standing in the synagogues and at the corners of the streets, so that people will see them. There, I tell you, is their reward!
6 Hianagi tamagrama nunamu hunaku hanuta, nomofo agu'afi ufreta, kafa eri kiteta Neramafantega oku'a nunamu hiho. Hinkeno oku'aza negea Neramafa'a mizana tamigahie.
But, when one of you prays, they should go into their own room, shut the door, and pray to their Father who dwells in secret; and their Father, who sees what is secret, will reward them.
7 Nunamuma hanuta, agu'agesa omne vahe'mo'za revahe revahe hu'za, megi'a vahe'mo'za (gentiles) hantgazankna kea osiho, na'ankure zamagrama antahi'zana, rama'a naneke nehusunkeno Anumzamo'a antahisie hu'za nehaze.
When praying, do not repeat the same words over and over again, as is done by the Gentiles, who think that by using many words they will obtain a hearing.
8 E'i ana hu'negu zamagri knara osiho. Na'ankure antahi onkenageno atupa'ma hu'naza zana ko tamagri Neramafa'a antahi'ne.
Do not imitate them; for God, your Father, knows what you need before you ask him.
9 Amanahu kna hutma nunamuna hiho. Tagri Nafati'moka monafi mani'nane, Kagri Kagimo ruotage huno mesie.
You, therefore, should pray like this – “Our Father, who is in heaven, may your name be held holy,
10 Kagri mona kumara esie, Kagri kavesi'zana monafinka nehazankna huno, ama mopafi efore hanie.
your kingdom come, your will be done – on earth, as in heaven.
11 Mago mago knare'ma nesuna ne'zana menina tamio.
Give us today the bread that we will need;
12 Kumitia atre'rantegeta, anahu kna huta kumi'ma hurante'namokizmi'a atre'zmanta maneno.
and forgive us our wrongdoings, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us;
13 Ana nehunka tatregeta rerahe'zampina uoframaneno. Hianagi hankromofo azampintira taza hunka tavro. [Na'ankure Kagri mona kumamo mevava hugahie. Tamage.]
and take us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.”
14 Hagi tamagrima kefoza hurmantesamokizmi kumi'zami atrezmante sageno'a, monare nemania Nafatimo'a, kumi'tamia eri atre ramantegahie.
For, if you forgive others their offences, your heavenly Father will forgive you also;
15 Hagi vahe'mokizmi kefozazimi atre ozmante snageno'a, monare nafatmimo'a, kefo zantamia atre oramantegahie.
but, if you do not forgive others their offences, not even your Father will forgive your offences.
16 Ne'zama a'o hanuta tavre vahe'mo'za nehaza knara hutma havi tamugosa osiho. Na'ankure e'inahu tamugosa nehanage'za, vahe'mo'za nege'za, ne'za a'o hu'naze hu'za hugahaze. Nagra tamage hu'na neramasmue, ko zamagra mizama'a eri'naze.
‘And, when you fast, do not put on gloomy looks, as hypocrites do who disfigure their faces so that they may be seen by people to be fasting. That, I tell you, is their reward!
17 Hianagi ne'zama a'o hanutma, tamasenire masavena nefretma, tamugosa sese hiho.
But, when one of you fasts, they should anoint their head and wash their face,
18 E'ina hanageno nezama a'oma hanaza zana vahe'mo'za onkeho. Hianagi tamagri Neramafa oku'a nemanimo kagegahie. Nehuno oku'a me'negeno negea Neramafa'a mizana tamagrira tamigahie.
so that they may not be seen by people to be fasting, but by their Father who dwells in secret; and their Father, who sees what is secret, will reward them.
19 Ama mopafina knare'nare fenona eritru osiho, havi kafamo'ene, krogroheno erihaviza nehanigeno, kumza vahe'mo'za nona anafe hu'za kumza nesaze.
‘Do not store up treasures for yourselves on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
20 Hianagi monafinka fenona havi kafamo'ene, krogro ohegeno, kumza vahe'mo'za nona tagana vaziza kumza ose fenotamina, tamagra eritru hiho.
But store up treasures for yourselves in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal.
21 Na'ankure fenonka'a me'nenirega, e'i anantega kagu'amo'a megahie.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 Kavurgamo'a kavufa'mofo rampe tavi me'ne, ana hu'neankino kavurgamo knare huno me'nenigeno'a, mika kavufamofona remsa hugantegahie.
The lamp of the body is the eye. If your eye is unclouded, your whole body will be lit up;
23 Hianagi kavurgamo'ma haviza hanigeno'a, mika kavufa hanizamo refitegahie. Hianagi kagu'afi me'nea tavimo asu'ma hanigeno'a, tusi'a hani hugahie.
but, if your eye is diseased, your whole body will be darkened. And, if the inner light is darkness, how intense must that darkness be!
24 Mago'mo'a tare kva netrentera eri'zana e'origahie. Na'ankure anamo'a mago'mofona avesra hunenteno, mago'mofona avesi nenteno, mago'mofonte amage nenteno, mago'mofona kefenkami atregahie. Kagra Anumzante'ene zagore'enena erizana eri otegahane.
No one can serve two masters, for either they will hate one and love the other, or else they will attach themselves to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
25 E'ina hu'negu, Nagra neramasmue, tamagrama manisnaza zankura tamagesa antahintahi hakare osuta, naza kavera negahune, igati tina negahune, kukena tavufarera na'a hugahune huta ontahiho. Anampina kavemo'a mani'zana agaterenefi, hipi kukenamo'a tavufa agatere'neo?
‘This is why I say to you, Do not be anxious about your life – what you can get to eat or drink, or about your body – what you can get to wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
26 Namamo'ma hareno vano nehiana keho, zamagra hoza ante'za, kafiza, eri atru hu'za, kave ante'nompina nontazanagi, monare nemania Neramafa ne'zana nezamie. Namamo'za tamagrira tamagaterenafi? A'o.
Look at the wild birds – they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns; and yet your heavenly Father feeds them! Aren’t you more precious than they?
27 Hagi mago tamimo'ma knare'zama huno mani'zanku'ma antahintahi hakarema hania zamo'a, asimu'a erizazara hugahio? A'o.
But which of you, by being anxious, can prolong their life a single moment?
28 Nahigetma kukena huzankura hakare antahintahia nehaze? Flauamo'a nankna huno nehagefi keho, zamagra eri'za e'oriza kukena trora nosaze.
And why be anxious about clothing? Study the wild lilies, and how they grow. They neither toil nor spin;
29 Ana hianagi Solomoni'a avasese'amo hu'nea knare nare kukena hu'neanagi, ami flauamofo avasese'amo'a agatere'ne.
yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his splendour was not robed like one of these.
30 Hianagi Anumzamo'ma, amuma me'nea trazama kukenama huma ante'neana, menina me'neanagi vahe'mo'za okina tevefi eri kregahaze. Ana hu'negu tamagrira Anumzamo'a agatereno kukena hurmantegahie. Tamagra osi'a tamentinti'ne naga mani'naze.
If God so clothes even the grass of the field, which is living today and tomorrow will be thrown into the oven, won’t he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
31 Ana hu'nagu tamagra nanezane tine neneta nakukena hugahune hutma hakare antahintahi osiho.
Do not then ask anxiously “What can we get to eat?” or “What can we get to drink?” or “What can we get to wear?”
32 Na'ankure mono ontahi vahe'mo'za, miko zankura nehakaze. Na'ankure monafi nemania Neramafa'a miko zankuma upama hu'nazana ko antahi'ne.
All these are the things for which the nations are seeking, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
33 Hianagi kota zana, Anumzamofo kumaku'ene, fatgo avu'avazanku haketenkeno, ana maka'zana anazanke huno tamamigahie.
But first seek his kingdom and the righteousness that he requires, and then all these things will be added for you.
34 E'i zanku oki fore hania zankura tamagesa hakare osiho. Na'ankure okizana atrenkeno, agra'a kva krino, mago knare'ma esia hazenkea, ana knazupage knaza megahie.
Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own anxieties. Every day has trouble enough of its own.
