Matio 5
1 Ie tendreke i lahialeñey le nitroatse mb’am-bohitse ey naho niambesatse vaho nimb’ama’e mb’eo o mpiama’eo.
And seeing the multitudes, he went up into the mountain; and when he had sat down, his disciples came to him.
2 Nanoka-palie re, naho nañòke ami’ty hoe:
And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying: —
3 Haha o mirèke an-trok’ aoo, fa a iareo i fifehean-dikerañey.
Blessed are the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Haha o miharovetseo fa hohoeñe,
Blessed are they who mourn; for they will be comforted.
5 Haha o trentrañeo, fa handova ty tane toy.
Blessed are the meek; for they will inherit the earth.
6 Haha o mivalingoa naho miheahea mipay havantañañeo, fa hanjañeñe.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness; for they will be filled.
7 Haha o miferenaiñeo, fa hiferenaiñañe.
Blessed are the merciful; for they will obtain mercy.
8 Haha o malio añ’arofoo, fa ho isa’iereo t’i Andrianañahare.
Blessed are the pure in heart; for they will see God.
9 Haha o milozoke fifampilongoañe, fa hatao anan’ Añahare.
Blessed are the peace-makers; for they will be called sons of God.
10 Haha o samporeraheñe ty ami’ty hatòo, fa a iareo i fifehean-dikerañey.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Haha nahareo te injèñe naho ampisoañeñe vaho tambaimbaiñeñe, amy ze fonga haloloañe ty amako, am-bolam-bande.
Blessed are ye, when men revile you, and persecute you, and say every thing that is bad against you, falsely, for my sake.
12 Mirebeha naho mandià taroba amy te ra’elahy ty tambe’ areo andindìñe ao, fa hambañ’ amy zay ty nampisoañeñe o mpitoky taoloo.
Rejoice, and be exceeding glad; for great is your reward in heaven; for so did they persecute the prophets that were before you.
13 Sira’ ty tane toy nahareo. Fe naho nàmoñe i siray, inoñe ty haniràñe aze? Toe tsy vara fa hariañe alafe ao ho lialiàm-pandia.
Ye are the salt of the earth. But if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall itself be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot by men.
14 Hazavàñe an-tane atoy nahareo. Tsy lefe aetake ty rova namboareñe am-bohitse ey.
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid;
15 Tsy ameloman-jiro hampikopoke aze añ’etake ao tsy hitapasàha’e, f’ie apoke am-pitàn-jiro eo, hañazava ze hene añ’anjomba ao.
nor do men light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the lamp-stand; and it giveth light to all that are in the house.
16 Aa le atsavavaho amy ze fonga ondaty ty hazavà’ areo, hitoroañe o sata-soa’ areo ho rengeñe naho onjoneñe añatrefan-dRae’ areo andindìñ’aoo.
In like manner let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
17 Ko atao’areo te nimb’ atoy iraho hamaoke Hake, Tsy nimb’atoy handrotsake fa ty hameno aze.
Think not that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfill.
18 Eka, to t’itaroñako te, ampara’ te mihelañe añe i likerañey naho ty tane toy, tsy ho faopaoheñe amy Hake ndra amo Mpitokio ze ana-tsoritse ndra hirike, amy te kila ho heneke.
For truly do I say to you, Not till heaven and earth pass away, shall one jot or one tittle pass from the Law, till all be fulfilled.
19 Ndra iaia miota ami’ty raike amy lily rezay vaho ampiohe’e ami’ty ila’e, ro hatao kabeake amy fifehean-dikerañey; fe ndra iaia mañambeñe vaho mañoke irezay, ty hatao jabajaba amy fifehean-dikerañey.
Whoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever shall do and teach them, he will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 Taroñeko ama’ areo, naho tsy mandikoatse ty havañona’ o Fariseoo naho o Androanavio ty havantaña’ areo le tsy hizilike am-pifehean-dikerañ’ ao nahareo.
For I say to you, Unless your righteousness shall exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
21 Tsy fa jinanji’areo hao ty nisaontsieñe amo ntaoloo ty hoe: Ko mañoho-doza, naho: Mikai-jaka mampihomake ty mpamono?
Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, “Thou shalt not kill; and whoever shall kill, shall be in danger of the Judges.”
22 Aa hoe iraho ama’areo: Hiatre-jaka ty maha-viñetse i mpiama’ey tsy an-dengo’e, naho hampiatrefem-pivory ze manao ty hoe aman-drahalahi’e: Itrotse irehe; vaho mipay afo an-tsikeokeoke ao ze manao aman-drahalahi’e ty hoe: Ty gege tia. (Geenna g1067)
But I say to you, that whoever is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the Judges; and whoever shall say to his brother, Simpleton! shall be in danger of the Council; and whoever shall say, Fool! shall be in danger of hell-fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 Aa ihe mibanabana an-kitrely vaho tiahi’o te anaña’ ty rañe’o kabò vaho itoreova’e,
Therefore, if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there remember that thy brother hath aught against thee,
24 le adono aolo’ i kitreliy eo i enga’oy naho akia, ifampilongo heike, izay vaho hengae’o i banabana’oy.
leave there thy gift before the altar, and go away; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
25 Ampanintsiño masìka i rafelahi’oy, ie mbe indreza’o fañavelo an-dalañe ey, tsy mone hasese’e ami’ty zizy, le hasese’ i ziziy amy mpitoroñey, hampijoñe azo am-porozò ao.
Agree with thine adversary at law quickly, while thou art on the road with him; lest the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
26 Eka, to t’italiliako, te tsy hiakatse ao ampara’ te avaha’o ty drala honka’e.
Truly do I say to thee, Thou wilt not come out thence, till thou hast paid the last farthing.
27 Fa jinanji’ areo i nitsaraeñe am’iereo haehae’ey, ty hoe: Ko mañarapilo.
Ye have heard that it was said, “Thou shalt not commit adultery.”
28 Fe hoe iraho ama’ areo: ze mikiroke ampela hilà’e aze, le fa nanao hakarapiloañe an-trok’ ao.
But I say to you, that whoever looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
29 Naho mizizy azo ty fihaino’o havana, akatraho vaho ahifiho añe; hasoa ho azo te hianto ty fange’o raike ta te homb’ an-tsikeokeoke ao ty vata’o iaby. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy right eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
30 Tovo’e: Ie manigìke azo ty fità’o, kitsiho; hasoa ho azo te ho rebake fange raike ta t’ie havokovoko an-tsikeokeoke ao ary vatañe. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy right hand cause thee to offend, cut it off, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should go away into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 Fa jinanji’ areo ty nitsaraeñe amo taoloo te: Ze mitsey valy ro hanolots’ aze takelam-pifanarahañe.
And it was said, “Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement.”
32 Itaroñeko te ze mañary valy, naho tsy t’ie nañarapilo, le tsi-mete tsy itolorañe takelam-pifanarahañe; naho o hakarapiloañeo, mañarapilo i lahilahiy vaho karapilo ty mañenga i nariañey.
But I say to you, that whoever putteth away his wife, unless it be on account of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery; and whoever shall marry her when put away, committeth adultery.
33 Toe jinanji’ areo ka ty nisaontsieñe amo taoloo, Ko mifànta vìlañe ami’ty añarako, le avaho am’ Iehovà o nifantà’oo?
Again ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, “Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt perform to the Lord thine oaths.”
34 Fe hoe iraho ama’ areo: ko manao fanta tsy vente’e aman-dra inoñ’ inoñe, ke amy likerañey, fa ie ty fiambesan’ Añahare;
But I say to you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;
35 he ami’ty tane toy, amy te ie ty fitongoàm-pandia’e; ke am’ Ierosaleme, fa ie ty rovan’ Añahare,
nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King;
36 he ami’ty añambone’o ie tsy mahafoty ndra mahamainte ty maròy raike.
nor shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black.
37 Ehe te ho Eka ty hoe Eka, naho ho Aiy ty hoe Tsie, fa hirik’ amy ratiy ze tovo’e.
But let your language be, Yea, yea; Nay; nay; for whatever is more than these cometh of evil.
38 Toe jinanji’areo ty nitsaraeñe amy Hake: Fihaino soloam-pihaino, naho fihitsike soloam-pihitsike.
Ye have heard that it was said, “An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.”
39 Fe hoe iraho ama’ areo: ko vale’o raty ty raty. Fa ze mandrara-tehake azo am-piambina’o havana, atoliho ama’e ka ty havia.
But I say to you, that ye resist not the evil-doer; but whoever smiteth thee on the right cheek, turn to him the other also;
40 Ty te hanesek’ azo an-jaka, higaoñe i saravi’oy, afofio ama’e ka ty saro’o.
and if any one intends to sue thee at the law, and take thy coat, give up to him thy cloak also;
41 Ze manjizy azo hañavelo arivo lia, mindreza ama’e ro’arivo.
and whoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.
42 Anoloro ty mihalaly ama’o, le ko ifoneña’o ty te hisongo ama’o.
Give to him that asketh of thee; and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not away.
43 Fa jinanji’ areo ty nitsaraeñe amo taoloo: kokò ty marine azo, vaho hejeo ty malaiñe azo.
Ye have heard that it was said, “Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.”
44 Fa hoe ka iraho ama’areo: Kokò o rafelahi’oo, tatao ty mamatse azo, le hasoao ty malaiñe, vaho mihalalia ho a o mampisoañe naho mamorekeke azoo,
But I say to you, Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you;
45 soa t’ie ho anan-dRae’ areo andindìñe ao; fa songa ampanjirihe’e amo ratio naho amo soao i androy, vaho ampahavie’e amo vantañeo naho amo tsy vokatseo i orañey.
that ye may become sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 Aa naho o mikoko anahareoo avao ty kokoa’ areo, inoñe ty ho tambe’ areo? Tsy izay hao ty anoe’ o mijiajiao amo mikoko iareoo?
For if ye love those who love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?
47 Aa naho o longo’areo avao ro añontanea’areo, ino ty anoe’o mandikoatse o kilakila’ndatio.
And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye that excelleth? Do not even the heathen the same?
48 Aa le mivantaña manahake te vantañe t’i Rae’ areo.
Be ye therefore perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
