Matayo 7
1 Bosambisaka te mpo ete, bino mpe, basambisa bino te.
"Do not judge, so that you won't be judged.
2 Pamba te bakosambisa bino ndenge kaka bino bosambisaka baninga, mpe bakomeka bino na emekelo kaka oyo bino bosalelaka mpo na komeka bato mosusu.
For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
3 Mpo na nini ozali kotala mwa lititi oyo ezali kati na liso ya ndeko na yo, wana ozali komona te nzete oyo ezali kati na liso na yo moko?
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 Ndenge nini okoki koloba na ndeko na yo: ‹ Ndeko na ngai, tika ete nalongola yo mwa lititi oyo ezali kati na liso, › wana ozali na nzete kati na liso na yo?
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 Bolole! Banda nanu kolongola nzete oyo ezali kati na liso na yo, bongo miso na yo ekomona malamu mpo ete okoka kolongola mwa lititi oyo ezali kati na liso ya ndeko na yo.
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 Bopesa te biloko ya bule epai ya bambwa, noki te ekozongela bino mpo na koswa bino; bobwaka te bapawuni na bino ya talo epai ya bangulu, noki te ekonyata-nyata yango.
"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 Bosenga, mpe bakopesa bino; boluka, mpe bokomona; bobeta ekuke, mpe bakofungolela bino;
"Ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.
8 pamba te moto nyonso oyo asengaka azwaka, moto oyo alukaka amonaka; mpe moto oyo abetaka ekuke, bafungolelaka ye yango.
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
9 Nani kati na bino apesaka na mwana na ye libanga, soki asengi ye lipa?
Or who is there among you, who, if his son will ask him for bread, will give him a stone?
10 To nani apesaka na mwana na ye nyoka soki asengi mbisi?
Or if he will ask for a fish, who will give him a serpent?
11 Soki bino bato oyo bozali kutu mabe boyebi kopesa na bana na bino biloko ya malamu, ndenge nini Tata na bino oyo azali na Likolo apesa te biloko ya kitoko epai ya bato oyo basengaka Ye yango?
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 Nyonso oyo bolingaka ete bato mosusu basalela bino, bino mpe bosalaka yango mpo na bango; pamba te yango nde mateya nyonso ya Mobeko mpe ya basakoli.
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 Bokotela na ekuke ya moke; pamba te ekuke mpe nzela oyo ememaka na libebi ezali monene, mpe bato ebele bakotelaka wana.
"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 Kasi ekuke to nzela oyo ememaka na bomoi ezali moke, mpe bato moke kaka nde bamonaka yango.
How narrow is the gate, and difficult is the way that leads to life. Few are those who find it.
15 Bosala keba na basakoli ya lokuta! Tango bayaka epai na bino, bazwaka lolenge ya bameme, kasi bazali penza bambwa ya zamba oyo etonda na kanda.
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
16 Bokoyeba bango na nzela ya misala na bango. Boni, bokoki kolongola bambuma ya vino na nzete ya basende to kobuka bambuma ya figi na nzete ya banzube?
By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 Nzete nyonso ya malamu ebotaka mpe bambuma ya malamu, kasi nzete ya mabe ebotaka mpe bambuma ya mabe.
Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.
18 Nzete ya malamu ebotaka te bambuma ya mabe, mpe nzete ya mabe ebotaka te bambuma ya malamu.
A good tree cannot produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.
19 Nzete nyonso oyo ebotaka te bambuma ya malamu, bapikolaka yango mpe babwakaka yango na moto.
Every tree that does not grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.
20 Boye, bokoyeba basakoli ya lokuta na nzela ya misala na bango.
Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
21 Bato nyonso oyo balobaka na Ngai: ‹ Nkolo! Nkolo! › bakokota te na Bokonzi ya Likolo, kaka bato oyo basalaka mokano ya Tata na Ngai, oyo azali kati na Likolo.
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 Na mokolo ya kosambisama, bato ebele bakoloba na Ngai: ‹ Nkolo! Nkolo! Ezali te na Kombo na Yo nde tosakolaki, tobenganaki milimo mabe mpe tosalaki bikamwa ebele? ›
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 Bongo Ngai, nakoyebisa bango: ‹ Natikala koyeba bino te! Bolongwa liboso na Ngai, bino bato mabe! ›
And then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who practice lawlessness.'
24 Yango wana, moto nyonso oyo ayoki makambo oyo nawuti koloba mpe atie yango na misala akokani na moto ya mayele oyo atongaki ndako na ye na likolo ya libanga.
"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 Tango mvula ebetaki makasi, mayi mpe mopepe eyaki makasi, emibwakaki na ndako yango; kasi atako bongo, ndako ekweyaki te, pamba te miboko na yango etongamaki na likolo ya libanga.
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 Nzokande, moto nyonso oyo ayoki makambo oyo nawuti koloba, kasi atie yango te na misala, akokani na zoba oyo atongaki ndako na ye na likolo ya zelo:
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 tango mvula ebetaki makasi, mayi eyaki elongo na mopepe makasi, emibwakaki na ndako yango; ndako yango ekweyaki, mpe nyonso epanzanaki. »
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 Tango Yesu asilisaki koloba maloba oyo, bato nyonso bakamwaki makasi malakisi na Ye,
And it happened, when Yeshua had finished saying these things, that the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
29 pamba te ateyaki bango na bokonzi oyo balakisi na bango ya Mobeko bazangaki.
for he taught them with authority, and not like their scribes.
