< Matayo 5 >
1 Yesu bho abhuene bhumati, akabhoka ni kulota Kukidonda. Bho atamili pasi bhanafunzi bha muene bhakahida.
Seeing the multitude of people, Jesus went up the Hill. There He seated Himself, and when His disciples came to Him,
2 Akafunula kinywa kiake ni kubhafundisya, akajobha,
He proceeded to teach them, and said:
3 “Heri bhabhajhele bhab'onyi bha roho kwandabha bhufalme bhwa kumbinguni ndo bhwa bhene.
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
4 Heri bhabhaj'hele ni huzuni, kwa ndabha bhibetakufarijibhwa.
"Blessed are the mourners, for they shall be comforted.
5 Heri bhenye bhololo, kwandabha bhibetakurithi nchi.
"Blessed are the meek, for they as heirs shall obtain possession of the earth.
6 Heri bhenye njala ni kiu, j'ha kiki, kwa ndabha obhu bhibetakushibishwa.
"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be completely satisfied.
7 Heri j'habhaj'hele ni Rehema.
"Blessed are the compassionate, for they shall receive compassion.
8 Heri j'ha bhaj'hele, ni muoyo safi kwa ndabha abhu bhibetakumbona K'yara.
"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
9 Heri bhapatanishi, kwa ndabha abhu bhibetakukutibhwa bhana bha K'yara.
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for it is they who will be recognized as sons of God.
10 Heri bhala bhabhitesibhwa kwa ndabha j'ha haki kwandabha bhufalme bhwa mbinguni ndo bhwa bhene.
"Blessed are those who have borne persecution in the cause of Righteousness, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
11 Heru muenga ambabho bhanu bhakabhaligha ni kubhatesya, au kujobha kila aina j'ha bhubhibhi dhidi j'ha muenga kwa bhudesi kwa ndabha j'ha nene.
"Blessed are you when they have insulted and persecuted you, and have said every cruel thing about you falsely for my sake.
12 Muhobhokai ni kushangilila. kwa ndabha thawabu j'ha muenga ndo m'baha kunani kumbinguni. Kwa kuj'ha efe ndo bhanu kyabhabhatesili manabii bhabhatamili kabla j'ha muenga.
Be joyful and triumphant, because your reward is great in the Heavens; for so were the Prophets before you persecuted.
13 Muenga ndo muinyu ghwa dunia. Lakini kama muinyu ghuj'haseli ladha j'hiake, j'hibetabhwesya bhuli kuj'ha muinyu kabhele? Kamwe jhibhwesya lepi kuj'ha j'hinofu kwa khenu khenge kyokyoha khela, isipokuwa kutaghibhwa kwibhala ni kukanyibhwa ni magolo gha bhanu.
"You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has become tasteless, in what way can it regain its saltness? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown away and trodden on by the passers by.
14 Muenga ndo nuru j'ha bhulimwengu. Mji ghwa ghujengibhu panani pa kid'honda ghwifighika lepi.
You are the light of the world; a town cannot be hid if built on a hill-top.
15 Bhwala bhanu bhibhwasya lepi taa ni kubheka pasi pa kikapu, bali kwenye kinara, naghu ghikabhaangasya bhoha bha bhaj'hele, mugati mu nyumba.
Nor is a lamp lighted to be put under a bushel, but on the lampstand; and then it gives light to all in the house.
16 Lekai nuru j'hamuenga j'hij'hakai mbele j'ha bhanu kwa namna ambaj'ho kujha, bhaghabhonai matendo jhinu manofu ni kuntukusya dadi j'hinu j'haaj'hele kumbinguni.
Just so let your light shine before all men, in order that they may see your holy lives and may give glory to your Father who is in Heaven.
17 Mkaikufikirira nihidili kuj'hionanga sheria bhwala manabii. Nihidili lepi kuijhonanga lakini kutimisya.
"Do not for a moment suppose that I have come to abrogate the Law or the Prophets: I have not come to abrogate them but to give them their completion.
18 Kwakueli nikabhajobhela kujha mpaka mbingu ni dunia syoha sipetayi jhij'helepi yodi imonga bhwala nukta j'himonga j'ha sheria jhibetakubhosibhwa mu sheria hadi apo khila khenu pakibetakuj'ha kimali kutimisibhwa.
Solemnly I tell you that until Heaven and earth pass away, not one iota or smallest detail will pass away from the Law until all has taken place.
19 Henu j'hij'hioha j'hola j'haibeta kubomola amri sidebesidebe mojawapo j'ha amri e'se ni kubhamanyisya bhangi kubhomba agha ibetakukutibhwa n'debe mubhufalme bhwa mbinguni. Lakini jhejhoha azishikaye na kuzifuata ataitwa mkubwa mu bhufalme bhwa mbinguni.
Whoever therefore breaks one of these least commandments and teaches others to break them, will be called the least in the Kingdom of the Heavens; but whoever practises them and teaches them, he will be acknowledged as great in the Kingdom of the Heavens.
20 Kwa ndabha nikabhajobhela haki j'ha muenga j'hikatayi kujhongeseka haki j'ha bhaandishi ni Mafarisayo, kwa fyofyoha fela mwibetalepi kuj'hingila mu bhufalme bhwa mbinguni.
For I assure you that unless your righteousness greatly surpasses that of the Scribes and the Pharisees, you will certainly not find entrance into the Kingdom of the Heavens.
21 Mup'heliki j'hajobhibhu muandi sana, “Usikomi” na 'j'haj'hioha j'haibeta kukhoma basi ajhele mu hatari j'ha hukumu.'
"You have heard that it was said to the ancients, 'Thou shalt not commit murder', and whoever commits murder will be answerable to the magistrate.
22 Lakini nikabhajobhela j'hej'hioha j'haikan'dadila ndongomunu ibetakuj'ha mu hukumu. Na j'hej'hioha j'haibetakumbola ndongomunu kuj'ha, 'Bhebhe ndo munu j'haghwilondeka lepi!' ibetakuj'ha mu hatari j'ha baraza. Ni j'hej'hioha j'haijobha, 'Bhebhe n'jinga!' ibetakuj'ha mu hatari j'ha muoto bhwa jehanamu. (Geenna )
But I say to you that every one who becomes angry with his brother shall be answerable to the magistrate; that whoever says to his brother 'Raca,' shall be answerable to the Sanhedrin; and that whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire. (Geenna )
23 Na kama ghwipisya sadaka j'ha j'hobhi munu madhabahu na ghwikhomboka, kuj'ha ndongobhu aj'he ni lijambo dhidi j'ha bhebhe,
If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, you remember that your brother has a grievance against you,
24 jhilekai sadaka mbele j'ha madhabahu, kisha kamulai nj'hela j'hiaku kapatanaj'hi hoti ni ndongobhu, na kisha uhidai kupisya sadaka j'ha j'hobhi.
leave your gift there before the altar, and go and make friends with your brother first, and then return and proceed to offer your gift.
25 Patanai ni mshtaki ghwa j'hobhi manyata, ukajhiaghe pamonga nu muene munj'hela kul'ota kumahakama, bila naha mshtaki ghwa j'hobhi ibnhwesya kukuleka mabhoko mwa hakimu, ni hakimu akulekai mmabhoko gha askari, naghwe ghwisopibhwa muligereza.
Come to terms without delay with your opponent while you are yet with him on the way to the court; for fear he should obtain judgement from the magistrate against you, and the magistrate should give you in custody to the officer and you be thrown into prison.
26 Amini kya nikabhjobhela, kamwe wibetalepi kuj'ha huru hadi ulepai senti j'ha mwishu j'ha pesa j'hawidaibhwa.
I solemnly tell you that you will certainly not be released till you have paid the very last farthing.
27 Mup'heliki j'hinenibhu kuj'ha, 'Ukatai kuzini.'
"You have heard that it was said, 'Thou shalt not commit adultery.'
28 Lakini nikabhajobhela j'hej'hioha jhiambona n'dala kwa kun'noghela amalili kuzini naku mun'teema ghwake.
But I tell you that whoever looks at a woman and cherishes lustful thoughts has already in his heart become guilty with regard to her.
29 Na kama lihu lya bhebhe lya kulia likusababisya kwikungufula, libhosiaj'hi na ulitaghai kutali nu bhebhe. Kwa kuj'ha ndo afadhali kiungo kimonga mu m'bele bhwako kyonangikai kuliko m'bele bhuoha kutangibhwa jehanamu. (Geenna )
If therefore your eye, even the right eye, is a snare to you, tear it out and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should be thrown into Gehenna. (Geenna )
30 Ni kama kiubhoko kya bhebhe kya kulia kikusababishila kwikungufula, dumulayi kisha utaghai patali nabhi. Kwandabha ni afadhali kiungo kimonga mu mbele bhwaku kuliko m'bele bhuoha kusopibhwa jehanamu. (Geenna )
And if your right hand is a snare to you, cut it off and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should go into Gehenna. (Geenna )
31 J'hijobhibhu pia, j'hej'hioha j'ha ikamb'enga n'dala, na ampelai hati j'ha talaka.'
"It was also said, 'If any man puts away his wife, let him give her a written notice of divorce.'
32 Lakini nene nikabhajobhela, j'hoj'hioha j'hiakandeka n'dala munu, isipokuj'ha kwa ndabha j'ha zinaa, ambombayi kuj'ha mzinzi. Na j'hej'hioha j'hiikan'gega baada j'ha kup'elibhwa talaka abhombaghe bhuzinzi.
But I tell you that every man who puts away his wife except on the ground of unfaithfulness causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries her when so divorced commits adultery.
33 Kabhele, mp'heliki lyajobhibhu kwa bhala bha muandi, 'Mkatai kulapa kwa bhudesi, bali mupelekaghe fiapo fyinu kwa Bwana.'
"Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, 'Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt perform thy vows to the Lord.'
34 Lakini nikabhajobhela, mkata kulapa hata kidogo, ama kwa mbingu, kwa ndabha ndo enzi j'ha K'yara;
But I tell you not to swear at all; neither by Heaven, for it is God's throne;
35 bhwala kwa dunia, kwandabha ndo mahali pa kubheka kiti kya kukanyila njayu syake, ama kwa Jerusalemu, kwa ndabha ndo miji ghya mfalme m'mbaha.
nor by the earth, for it is the footstool under His feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the City of the Great King.
36 Bhwala usilapi kwa mutu bhwaku, kwandabha ghwibhwesya lepi kubhomba luj'huwili limonga kuj'ha lubhalafu au lutitu.
And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.
37 Bali malobhi ghinu ghaj'helayi, 'Ena, ena, Lepi, lepi.' Kwa kuj'ha ghaghizidi aghu ghihoma kwa j'hola mwovu.
But let your language be, 'Yes, yes,' or 'No, no.' Anything in excess of this comes from the Evil one.
38 Mup'helikhi j'hijobhibhu kuj'ha, 'Lihu kwa lihu, ni linu kwa linu.'
"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, tooth for tooth.'
39 Lakini nene nikabhajobhela, Musitolani ni munu muovu; lakini akakutobhai litama lya kulia nsanusilaghe ni leng'he pia.
But I tell you not to resist a wicked man, but if any one strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to him as well.
40 Na kama j'hoj'hioha ilonda kulota ni bhebhe mahakamani na akunyakili kanzu lya bhebhe, ndekelaghe ni joho lya bhebhe pia.
If any one wishes to go to law with you and to deprive you of your under garment, let him take your outer one also.
41 Na j'hej'hioha j'haikulasimisya kulota naku maili j'himonga, lotayi naku maili mbili.
And whoever shall compel you to convey his goods one mile, go with him two.
42 J'hej'hioha jhaikus'oma mpelai, na ukatakunjepa j'hoj'hioha j'hailonda ku kuj'hasima.
To him who asks, give: from him who would borrow, turn not away.
43 Mp'heliki j'hij'hobhibhu un'ganai jirani ghwa j'hobhi, na un'dadilayi adui ghwa jhobhi.'
"You have heard that it was said, 'Thou shalt love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy.'
44 Lakini nikabhajobhela, mubhaganai maadui bhinu, mubhas'omelayi bhabhakabhadadisya.
But I command you all, love your enemies, and pray for your persecutors;
45 Ili kuj'ha muj'helaghe bhana bha tata j'hinu j'haaj'hele kumbinguni. Kwa kuj'ha ibhomba lij'hobha libhaangasilaj'hi bhabhibhi ni bhanofu, na ikabhatonyela fula bhaovu ni bhanofu.
that so you may become true sons of your Father in Heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the wicked as well as the good, and sends rain upon those who do right and those who do wrong.
46 Kama m'beta kubhagana bhabhikabhagana muenga, mwikabha thawabu gani? Kwani bhatoza ushuru bhibhomba lepi naha?
For if you love only those who love you, what reward have you earned? Do not even the tax-gatherers do that?
47 Na kama mkabhasalimila bhalongobhinu tu mwikabha kiki zidi j'ha bhangi? Je! Bhanu bha mataifa bhibhomba lepi naha?
And if you salute only your near relatives, what praise is due to you? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?
48 Henu j'hilondeka kuj'ha bhakamilifu, kama tata ghwenu ghwa kumbinguni kyaaj'hele n'kamilifu.
You however are to be complete in goodness, as your Heavenly Father is complete.
