< मत्ती 6 >

1 तिमीहरूले आफ्ना धार्मिक कार्यहरूलाई मानिसहरूको सामुन्‍ने तिनीहरूले देखून् भनेर नगर्न सावधान रहो, नत्रता स्वर्गमा हुनुहुने पिताबाट तिमीहरूले कुनै इनाम पाउनेछैनौ ।
“Pay attention, lest you perform your justice before men, in order to be seen by them; otherwise you shall not have a reward with your Father, who is in heaven.
2 त्यसैले, जब तिमीहरूले कसैलाई केही दान दिन्छौ, तब मानिसहरूबाट प्रशंसा पाउनको निम्ति पाखण्डीहरूले सभाघरहरू र सडकहरूमा गरेजस्तै आफ्नैअगि तुरही नफुक । साँच्‍चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि तिनीहरूले आफ्ना इनाम पाइसकेका छन् ।
Therefore, when you give alms, do not choose to sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the towns, so that they may be honored by men. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
3 तर जब तिमीहरू केही दान दिन्छौ, तब तिमीहरूको दाहिने हातले जे गर्दै छ, त्यो तिमीहरूको देब्रे हातले थाहा नपाओस्,
But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
4 ताकि तिमीहरूको दान गुप्‍तमा होस् । त्यसपछि गुप्‍तमा देख्‍नुहुने पिताले तिमीहरूलाई इनाम दिनुहुनेछ ।
so that your almsgiving may be in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will repay you.
5 अनि जब तिमीहरू प्रार्थना गर्छौ, तब पाखण्डीहरूजस्ता नहोओ, किनकि मानिसहरूले उनीहरूलाई देखून् भनेर उनीहरू सभाघरहरू र बाटोका छेउमा उभिएर प्रार्थना गर्न मन पराउँछन् । साँच्‍चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, तिनीहरूले आफ्ना इनाम पाइसकेका छन् ।
And when you pray, you should not be like the hypocrites, who love standing in the synagogues and at the corners of the streets to pray, so that they may be seen by men. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
6 तर जब तिमीहरू प्रार्थना गर्छौ, तब आफ्नो भित्री कोठामा जाओ । ढोका बन्द गर र आफ्ना पितासँग प्रार्थना गर जो गुप्‍तमा रहनुहुन्छ । त्यसपछि गुप्‍तमा देख्‍नुहुने पिताले तिमीहरूलाई इनाम दिनुहुनेछ ।
But you, when you pray, enter into your room, and having shut the door, pray to your Father in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will repay you.
7 अनि जब तिमीहरू प्रार्थना गर्छौ, व्यर्थमा नबरबराओ, जसरी गैरयहूदीहरूले गर्छन्, किनकि धेरै बोल्नाले तिनीहरूको सुनाइ हुन्छ भनी तिनीहरू ठान्दछन् ।
And when praying, do not choose many words, as the pagans do. For they think that by their excess of words they might be heeded.
8 त्यसैकारण, तिनीहरू जस्ता नहोओ, किनकि तिमीहरूले माग्‍नुभन्दा अगि नै तिमीहरूलाई के कुराको खाँचो छ भनी तिमीहरूका पिता जान्‍नुहुन्छ ।
Therefore, do not choose to imitate them. For your Father knows what your needs may be, even before you ask him.
9 त्यसैले, यसरी प्रार्थना गरः ‘हे हाम्रा स्वर्गमा हुनुहुने पिता, तपाईंको नाउँ पवित्र गरियोस्,
Therefore, you shall pray in this way: Our Father, who is in heaven: May your name be kept holy.
10 तपाईंको राज्य आओस् । तपाईंको इच्छा स्वर्गमा जस्तै यस पृथ्वीमा पुरा होस् ।
May your kingdom come. May your will be done, as in heaven, so also on earth.
11 हामीलाई आज दिनभरिको भोजन दिनुहोस् ।
Give us this day our life-sustaining bread.
12 हाम्रा पाप क्षमा गरिदिनुहोस्, जसरी हामीले हाम्रा विरुद्धमा पाप गर्नेहरूलाई क्षमा गरेका छौँ ।
And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
13 र हामीलाई परीक्षामा नडोर्‍याउनुहोस्, तर दुष्‍टबाट छुटकारा दिनुहोस् । किनकि राज्य र पराक्रम र महिमा सदासर्वदा तपाईंकै हुन् । आमेन ।’
And lead us not into temptation. But free us from evil. Amen.
14 किनकि यदि तिमीहरूले मानिसहरूका पापलाई क्षमा गर्‍यौ भने, तिमीहरूका स्वर्गीय पिताले पनि तिमीहरूलाई क्षमा दिनुहुनेछ ।
For if you will forgive men their sins, your heavenly Father also will forgive you your offenses.
15 तर यदि तिमीहरूले उनीहरूका पापलाई क्षमा गरेनौ भने, तिमीहरूका पिताले पनि तिमीहरूका पाप क्षमा गर्नुहुनेछैन ।
But if you will not forgive men, neither will your Father forgive you your sins.
16 साथै, जब तिमीहरू उपवास बस्दछौ, तब पाखण्डीहरूले गरेजस्तै उदास अनुहार नबनाओ, किनकि तिनीहरू मानिसहरूका अगि उपवास बसेको जस्तो देखिन सकियोस् भनेर तिनीहरूले आफ्ना अनुहारलाई बिगार्छन् । साँच्‍चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, कि तिनीहरूले आफ्ना इनाम पाइसकेका छन् ।
And when you fast, do not choose to become gloomy, like the hypocrites. For they alter their faces, so that their fasting may be apparent to men. Amen I say to you, that they have received their reward.
17 तर तिमीहरू जब उपवास बस्छौ, आफ्ना अनुहार पखाल र आफ्ना शिरलाई अभिषेक गर ।
But as for you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,
18 यसरी मानिसहरूका नजरमा तिमीहरू उपवास बसिरहेका जस्तो देखिँदैनौ, तर गुप्‍तमा हुनुहुने तिमीहरूका पितालाई मात्र त्यो थाहा हुन्छ । अनि गुप्‍तमा देख्‍नुहुने तिमीहरूका पिताले तिमीहरूलाई इनाम दिनुहुनेछ ।
so that your fasting will not be apparent to men, but to your Father, who is in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will repay you.
19 पृथ्वीमा आफ्नो निम्ति धन सम्‍पत्ति नथुपार, जहाँ किरा र खियाले त्यसलाई नष्‍ट गर्छन्, र जहाँ चोरहरूले घर फोरेर चोर्छन् ।
Do not choose to store up for yourselves treasures on earth: where rust and moth consume, and where thieves break in and steal.
20 बरु, आफ्नो निम्ति स्वर्गमा धन सम्पत्ति थुपार, जहाँ न त खिया वा किराले नष्‍ट गर्दछ, न त चोरले चोरेर लैजान्छ ।
Instead, store up for yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither rust nor moth consumes, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
21 किनकि जहाँ तिमीहरूको धन सम्पत्ति हुन्छ, त्यहाँ तिमीहरूको मन पनि हुनेछ ।
For where your treasure is, there also is your heart.
22 आँखा शरीरको निम्ति बत्ती हो । त्यसैकारण, यदि तिमीहरूका आँखा असल छन् भने, सम्पूर्ण शरीर नै प्रकाशले भरिनेछ ।
The lamp of your body is your eye. If your eye is wholesome, your entire body will be filled with light.
23 तर यदि तिमीहरूका आँखा खराब छन् भने, तिमीहरूका सम्पूर्ण शरीर नै अँध्यारोले भरिन्छ । त्यसैकारण, यदि तिमीहरूमा भएको ज्योति वास्तवमा अँध्यारो भयो भने, त्यो अन्धकार कति ठुलो होला!
But if your eye has been corrupted, your entire body will be darkened. If then the light that is in you is darkness, how great will that darkness be!
24 कसैले पनि दुई जना मालिकको सेवा गर्न सक्दैन, किनकि त्यसले कि त एउटालाई घृणा गर्छ र अर्कोलाई प्रेम गर्दछ, वा एउटाप्रति समर्पित हुन्छ र अर्कोको उपेक्षा गर्दछ । तिमीहरूले परमेश्‍वर र धन दुवैको सेवा गर्न सक्दैनौ ।
No one is able to serve two masters. For either he will have hatred for the one, and love the other, or he will persevere with the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
25 त्यसैकारण, म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, तिमीहरू आफ्ना जीवनको बारेमा के खाउँला वा के पिउँला भनेर वा आफ्नो शरीरको बारेमा के लगाउँला भनेर चिन्ता नगर । के जीवन भोजनभन्दा र शरीर वस्‍त्रभन्दा मूल्यवान् हुँदैन र?
And so I say to you, do not be anxious about your life, as to what you will eat, nor about your body, as to what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
26 आकाशका चराहरूलाई हेर! तिनीहरूले न त छर्छन् वा कटनी गर्छन् वा भकारीमा बटुल्छन्, तरै पनि तिमीहरूका स्वर्गीय पिताले तिनीहरूलाई खुवाउनुहुन्छ । के तिमीहरू तीभन्दा धेरै बहुमूल्य छैनौ र?
Consider the birds of the air, how they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of much greater value than they are?
27 अनि तिमीहरूमध्ये कसले चिन्ता गरेर आफ्नो आयुमा एक घडी पनि थप्‍न सक्छ र?
And which of you, by thinking, is able to add one cubit to his stature?
28 अनि तिमीहरू किन लगाउने लुगाको लागि चिन्ता गर्छौ? मैदानका लिली फुलहरूलाई हेर, ती कसरी उम्रन्छन् । तिनीहरूले न त काम गर्छन्, न कपडा नै बुन्छन् ।
And as for clothing, why are you anxious? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither work nor weave.
29 र पनि म तिमीहरूलाई भन्छु, सोलोमन पनि आफ्नो सम्पूर्ण गौरवमा यिनीहरूले जस्तै गरी आभुषित थिएनन् ।
But I say to you, that not even Solomon, in all his glory, was arrayed like one of these.
30 यदि परमेश्‍वरले आज हुने र भोलि भट्टीमा फ्याँकिने मैदानका घाँसहरूलाई समेत पहिराउनुहुन्छ भने, तिमीहरूलाई त झन् कति बढी पहिराउनुहुनेछ, ए अल्प-विश्‍वासीहरू हो?
So if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and cast into the oven tomorrow, how much more will he care for you, O little in faith?
31 त्यसैकारण, चिन्तित भएर यसरी नभन, ‘हामी के खाउँला?’ वा ‘हामी के पिउँला?’ वा ‘हामी के लगाउँला?’
Therefore, do not choose to be anxious, saying: ‘What shall we eat, and what shall we drink, and with what shall we be clothed?’
32 किनकि यी सबै कुरा त गैरयहूदीहरूले खोज्छन् र यी कुराहरू तिमीहरूलाई आवश्यक छ भन्‍ने कुरा तिमीहरूका स्वर्गीय पिताले जान्‍नुहुन्छ ।
For the Gentiles seek all these things. Yet your Father knows that you need all these things.
33 तर पहिले उहाँको राज्य र उहाँको धार्मिकताको खोजी गर अनि यी सबै थोक तिमीहरूलाई दिइनेछ ।
Therefore, seek first the kingdom of God and his justice, and all these things shall be added to you as well.
34 त्यसैकारण, भोलिको निम्ति चिन्ता नगर, किनकि भोलिको चिन्ता त्यो आफैँले गर्नेछ । हरेक दिनको आफ्नै पर्याप्‍त चिन्ता रहेको छ ।
Therefore, do not be anxious about tomorrow; for the future day will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its evil.”
