< Mattheum 7 >

1 nolite iudicare ut non iudicemini
"Do not judge, so that you won't be judged.
2 in quo enim iudicio iudicaveritis iudicabimini et in qua mensura mensi fueritis metietur vobis
For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
3 quid autem vides festucam in oculo fratris tui et trabem in oculo tuo non vides
And why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
4 aut quomodo dicis fratri tuo sine eiciam festucam de oculo tuo et ecce trabis est in oculo tuo
Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and look, the log is in your own eye?
5 hypocrita eice primum trabem de oculo tuo et tunc videbis eicere festucam de oculo fratris tui
You hypocrite. First remove the log out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.
6 nolite dare sanctum canibus neque mittatis margaritas vestras ante porcos ne forte conculcent eas pedibus suis et conversi disrumpant vos
"Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, or they will trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces.
7 petite et dabitur vobis quaerite et invenietis pulsate et aperietur vobis
"Ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.
8 omnis enim qui petit accipit et qui quaerit invenit et pulsanti aperietur
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
9 aut quis est ex vobis homo quem si petierit filius suus panem numquid lapidem porriget ei
Or who is there among you, who, if his son will ask him for bread, will give him a stone?
10 aut si piscem petet numquid serpentem porriget ei
Or if he will ask for a fish, who will give him a serpent?
11 si ergo vos cum sitis mali nostis bona dare filiis vestris quanto magis Pater vester qui in caelis est dabit bona petentibus se
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him.
12 omnia ergo quaecumque vultis ut faciant vobis homines et vos facite eis haec est enim lex et prophetae
Therefore whatever you desire for people to do to you, so also you should do to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.
13 intrate per angustam portam quia lata porta et spatiosa via quae ducit ad perditionem et multi sunt qui intrant per eam
"Enter in by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter in by it.
14 quam angusta porta et arta via quae ducit ad vitam et pauci sunt qui inveniunt eam
How narrow is the gate, and difficult is the way that leads to life. Few are those who find it.
15 adtendite a falsis prophetis qui veniunt ad vos in vestimentis ovium intrinsecus autem sunt lupi rapaces
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
16 a fructibus eorum cognoscetis eos numquid colligunt de spinis uvas aut de tribulis ficus
By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 sic omnis arbor bona fructus bonos facit mala autem arbor fructus malos facit
Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.
18 non potest arbor bona fructus malos facere neque arbor mala fructus bonos facere
A good tree cannot produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.
19 omnis arbor quae non facit fructum bonum exciditur et in ignem mittitur
Every tree that does not grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.
20 igitur ex fructibus eorum cognoscetis eos
Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
21 non omnis qui dicit mihi Domine Domine intrabit in regnum caelorum sed qui facit voluntatem Patris mei qui in caelis est ipse intrabit in regnum caelorum
Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22 multi dicent mihi in illa die Domine Domine nonne in nomine tuo prophetavimus et in tuo nomine daemonia eiecimus et in tuo nomine virtutes multas fecimus
Many will tell me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did not we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?'
23 et tunc confitebor illis quia numquam novi vos discedite a me qui operamini iniquitatem
And then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who practice lawlessness.'
24 omnis ergo qui audit verba mea haec et facit ea adsimilabitur viro sapienti qui aedificavit domum suam supra petram
"Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, will be compared to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.
25 et descendit pluvia et venerunt flumina et flaverunt venti et inruerunt in domum illam et non cecidit fundata enim erat super petram
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 et omnis qui audit verba mea haec et non facit ea similis erit viro stulto qui aedificavit domum suam supra harenam
And everyone who hears these words of mine, and does not do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.
27 et descendit pluvia et venerunt flumina et flaverunt venti et inruerunt in domum illam et cecidit et fuit ruina eius magna
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell—and great was its fall."
28 et factum est cum consummasset Iesus verba haec admirabantur turbae super doctrinam eius
And it happened, when Yeshua had finished saying these things, that the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
29 erat enim docens eos sicut potestatem habens non sicut scribae eorum et Pharisaei
for he taught them with authority, and not like their scribes.
