Matai 5
1 Navope aviile avawene ifipugu fya vanu akhatoga khukhyamba. Pu avile amalile ukhulama, avakongi va mwene vakhincha.
When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain and sat down. His disciples came to Him,
2 Pwakha deendula undomo gwa mwene akhanja ukhuvamanyisya, nu khuta,
and He began to teach them, saying:
3 “Huba vala avaganchu va numbula manya uluudeva lwa khukyanya lwavo.
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Huba avanya lususuvalo, manya avo yaviachesiwagwa.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
5 Huba avanyakhisa, manya avo vala khihala ikhilunga.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
6 Huba avanya njala ni khyumilwa ikhya yeilweli, manya avo valigutaga.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
7 Huba vula avanya lusyikhilo manya avo valasyeikhiliwagwa.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
8 Huba avanya numbula inonu manya avo yavikhumbona uNguluve.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
9 Huba avavisayania, manya avo vikhilangiwagwa vana va Nguluve.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
10 Huba avaviveipeiliwa savuli ya vuyeilweli manya uludeeva lwa khukyanya lwavo.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Huba umwe yumwe avanu yavikhuvadukhaga nukhuvapa uluvungu nukhuva uvuvivi umwe nukhuvadelela savuli yango.
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
12 Muhovokhage nukhulu lutila, manya ulutalama lwinyo luvaha khukyanya ulwa khuva vuyeilievyo avanu vava vungaga avanya malago avuvalekhyo umwe vu mukhanale.
Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets before you.
13 Umwe mulei mwoyo gwa khilunga. Pu einave umwinyo guyanchinche uvunonu wa gwene, pu yiva ndakhikhi ukhuta yuve nonu khange? Pu nalusikhu sagwiva nonu khu khinu eikhinge khyukhyoni, puleino pugwiva gwa khutaga khunji nukhukadiwa na vanu.
You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
14 Umwe muleilumuli lwa khilunga. Uvunchege uwuvunchengiwa pakyanya pakhyamba savufihama.
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
15 Na vavanu saviwasya einyali nu khuveikha pasi pakhisanja, pu vi veikha pavuhagufu, puyikhuva muleikhaga voni avahei mgati munyumba.
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
16 Pumululekhe ulumuli lwenyo lumuleikhage mbulongolo mu vanu munjeila eiya khuta avanu vanchivonage imbombo inonu ndyumwe nu khumwimikha uDaada yeinyo uva khukyanya.
In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
17 Mlekhe ukhuta ninchile khudenya ululageilo vave vuvanya malago saninchile khudenya punichele khwinoncha nukhugolosya.
Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them.
18 Pu lweli nikhuvavula ukhuta pu napakha ikyanya ni khilunga fyooni filute, khisikhuli eikhigelelo nakhimo eikhya lulagilo ulu yakhiva lwihega, pu mpakha apo upoyakhiva khila khinu khiva khikwilanile.
For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
19 Pu leino umunu uveiavenchaga uveideenya ululagilo uludeebe loninie mundagilo inchi nukhuvanyisya akange ukhudeenya uywa puikhilangiwaga ideebe muludeva lwa khukyanya. Pu ula uveikhunchibata nukhuvamanyisya avange uywa ikhilangiwaga imbaha muludeeva lwa khukyanya.
So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 Manya nikhuvavula ukhuta einave uvugolofu weinyo savulutiila, mumbogolofu wa vasimbi va kalata na Vafalisyao, pusamuleingile lusikhu mundudeeva ulwa khukyanya.
For I tell you that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
21 Mupoulikhe ukhuta avanu ava khatale vavuliwe ukhuta, ulahudaga nu munu ubudi panogile ukhuheigiwa.'
You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not murder’ and ‘Anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’
22 Pu leino une nikhuvavula ukhuta umunu unyaluviipo khu niine punogile ukhuheigiwa, umunu uveikhinchifula nukhusula ulukololwe panugile ukhuheigiwa palulundamano lwa vaheigi nu munu uveikotola vivakhulahiwa mundugadu ncho ulwa mwoto ukali. (Geenna g1067)
But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ will be subject to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell. (Geenna g1067)
23 Puleino unave vuheileikha isadakha ya panekhelo yakhutekhela khuntwa, punakhumbukhe ukhuta uleininogwa nu lukololwo ikuta nuve,
So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,
24 pu yeilekhe isadakha eiyo pala panekhelo, pu beite tasi ukhideehane nulukololwo, pukilivukhe khwilaha isadakha yakho.
leave your gift there before the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.
25 Weideehane nu munu uveitutile inogwa khumwene, weideikhe khimbeivi mbeive vumuleimunjeila mwiluta khubalasa, pu unave savukhwidehana nave munjei pu ula uveiutulile einongwa khumwene avahile ukhukhulekha khumbaha vavuheigi wa nongwa pu ula ikhukhuheilikha mmavokho ga vasikhali puvikhukhudeindeila mundu pala nie minyololo.
Reconcile quickly with your adversary, while you are still on the way to court. Otherwise, he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison.
26 Pu weideikhe ukhu nalusikhu sakha khudekhepele winchiga ukungiwe mulamula vusuhombile eihela ya mwene impakha yakhiva vuhomba yooni.
Truly I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.
27 Mupulikhe ukhuta, linchoviwe eilita ulaligupaga.'
You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’
28 Pu une nikhuvavula niita umunu ikhundola udala mumbunogwe uywa amalile ukhuligupa nave munumbula ya mwene.
But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 Enave eiliho lyakho eilya khundyo likhukhupela uvunangi pu uleihenche utage khuvutali nuve. Ulwa khuva huba uve mbula khamagikha khaninie. Pu umbeili gwakho gwooni gulekhe ukhutagiwa mundugaduncho la mwoto. (Geenna g1067)
If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. (Geenna g1067)
30 Pu ni khivokho khyakho eikhya khundyo khinga khupele uvunangi pugeide, utage khutali nuve. Manya panogile uve mbulakhimagikha khininie, pu umbeili gwakho gyooni gulekhe ukhutagiwa mundugaduncho lwa mwoto. (Geenna g1067)
And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to depart into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 Leinchoviwe eilita, uveihumya udala nukhupa eikalata eiyiita niswimile udala uyu.'
It has also been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’
32 Pu une nikhuvavula niita, uveihumya udala va mwene vusaligwipe, pu ikhupela aveindigu na vanu avange pu umunu uveitola udala uvalekhiwe nu gosi va mwene uywa pu iva iligupa nave.
But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, brings adultery upon her. And he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
33 Mupulikhe ukhuta, vavuliwe ava viise veinyo ukhuta, 'Ulekhe ukhwijiega mbudesi, pu umwe mweijiagage khu Ntwa kwene uvwayeilweli.
Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’
34 Pu une leino nikhuvavula niita, muleijieguga na padebe, khumela nu khuta manya nakhukyanya, ulwa khuva khyukhigoda eikhya Nguluve;
But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;
35 Khive mukhilunga manya pupakhuvikha amalunde ga mwene, yeive mwu mu Jelusalemu, pakhuva wuvunchenge uwankuludeva umbaha.
or by the earth, for it is His footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
36 Khyumela nukhwijiega pakhuta, manya neilie nuntwe manya neilieninchwele pakhuva sawigela nukhupela ate uluywilei hata lumo ukhuta luve lu valafu yeive luve lutitu.
Nor should you swear by your head, for you cannot make a single hair white or black.
37 Pu amamenyu geinyo gavenchage ga khuta, 'Ena, enave mukhweideihana, mutenchage khyomela enave samukhwi deihana.' Pa khuva agaluteilile pa ago gihuma mundugu.
Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ Anything more comes from the evil one.
38 Mupulikhe lisimbiwe eilita ukhwita, vuleila eiliho pa liho, eilino pa lino.'
You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’
39 Pu leino une nikhuvavula niita, mulakilanaga nu munu umbivi; pu umunu anakhutove ni lipi khuvunchuga waakho uluvafu ulwa khundyo pupinchage nuluvafu ulunge lwope atove.
But I tell you not to resist an evil person. If someone slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also;
40 Pu umunu anakhuheileikhe pavuheigi apokhe umwenda gwakho pu upinchage na gugunge.
if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well;
41 Pu ula uveikhukhyumeilincha ukhugenda nu mwene eimaili yeimo pu gende nave imaili eveili.
and if someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
42 Pu ula uveikhudova ifya khudova upeinchage, ula uveidova ukole upe ulekhe ukhusyetukhila khungosi.
Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
43 Mu pulikhe leisimbiwe eilita uganage unino, unsoulage utavangwa.'
You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’ and ‘Hate your enemy.’
44 Pu une nikhuvavula niita muvaganage avatavangwa veinyo, muvadovelage ulusayo vala avikhuvakotola muvavombelage inonu na vala vavo vavansoulile,
But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
45 pu muvenchaga vaana va Daada yeinyo uva khukyanya. Pakhuva umwene ikhuva muleikhila eilinchuva avavivi na vanonu, ifula ya mwene yeitima khu vagolofu navatava vagolofu.
that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
46 Pumunave mukhuvagana vala vavo vavaganile umwe, pu muhombiwa khinukheikhi? Avasangunchi voope nchusavivoomba ndincho?
If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even tax collectors do the same?
47 Hange munave musamusania mwivana munu yumwe, pu muvomba khinu khikhi ukhuluteila? Pu! avanu avapanchi nchu savivoomba ndiincho?
And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even Gentiles do the same?
48 Pu umwe muvenchage vagolofu nduvu u Dada yeinyo uvakhukyanya umwavelile igolofu.
Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
