Maatewos 5
1 Yesuus yommuu namoota baayʼee argetti, tulluutti ol baʼee taaʼe. Barattoonni isaas gara isaa dhufan;
And seeing the multitudes He went up to a mountain, and when He was set down, His disciples came to Him,
2 innis isaan barsiisuu jalqabe. Akkanas jedhe:
and He opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
3 “Warri hafuuraan hiyyeeyyii taʼan eebbifamoo dha; mootummaan samii kan isaaniitii.
Blessed are the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Warri gaddan eebbifamoo dha; jajjabina ni argatuutii.
Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.
5 Warri garraamiin eebbifamoo dha; lafa ni dhaaluutii.
Blessed are the meek; for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Warri qajeelummaa beelaʼanii fi dheebotan eebbifamoo dha; isaan ni quufuutii.
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness; for they shall be satisfied.
7 Araara qabeeyyiin eebbifamoo dha; araara ni argatuutii.
Blessed are the merciful; for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Warri garaan isaanii qulqulluu eebbifamoo dha; Waaqa ni arguutii.
Blessed are the pure in heart; for they shall see God.
9 Warri nagaa buusan eebbifamoo dha; ijoollee Waaqaa ni jedhamuutii.
Blessed are the peace-makers; for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Warri qajeelummaadhaaf jedhanii ariʼataman eebbifamoo dha; mootummaan samii kan isaaniitii.
Blessed are they, who are persecuted for righteousness sake; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Yommuu namoonni sababii kootiif jedhanii isin arrabsan, yommuu isin ariʼatanii fi yommuu waan hamaa gosa hundaa sobaan isin irratti dubbatan isin eebbifamoo dha.
Blessed are ye when men shall revile and persecute you, and utter all manner of reproach against you falsly, for my sake:
12 Sababii gatiin keessan samii keessatti guddaa taʼeef ililchaa; gammadaas; isaan raajota isin dura turanis haaluma kanaan ariʼataniiruutii.
rejoice and be exceeding glad; for great will be your reward in heaven: for so they persecuted the prophets, that were before you.
13 “Isin soogidda lafaa ti. Garuu soogiddi yoo miʼaa isaa dhabe, miʼaan isaa akkamiin deebifamuu dandaʼa? Gad gatamee miillaan dhidhiitama malee siʼachi waan tokko illee hin fayyadu.
Ye are the salt of the earth, but if the salt be grown insipid, wherewith shall it be seasoned? it is no longer fit for any thing, but to be thrown out of doors, and trodden under foot.
14 “Isin ifa addunyaa ti. Magaalaan gaara gubbaa jiru tokko dhokachuu hin dandaʼu.
Ye are the light of the world: a city, that is situated on a hill, cannot be hid.
15 Yookaan namoonni ibsaa qabsiisanii gombisaa jala hin kaaʼan. Qooda kanaa baattuu isaa irra kaaʼu; ibsaan sunis namoota mana keessa jiran hundaaf ifa kenna.
Nor do men light a candle, to put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick: and then it giveth light to all in the house.
16 Akka namoonni hojii keessan isa gaarii arganii abbaa keessan kan samii irraatiif ulfina kennaniif ifni keessanis akkasuma fuula namootaa duratti haa ifu.
So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your father, who is in heaven.
17 “Isin waan ani Seera yookaan Raajota diiguu dhufe hin seʼinaa; ani isaan raawwachuuf malee diiguuf hin dhufne.
Think not that I am come to abrogate the law, or the prophets: I am not come to abolish, but to compleat them:
18 Ani dhuguman isinitti hima; hamma samii fi lafti darbanitti, Seerri guutummaatti raawwatama malee seericha keessaa qubeen tokko iyyuu, tuqaan xinnoon ishee iyyuu gonkumaa hin baddu.
for verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, not one jot nor one tittle shall pass from the law, till all be compleated.
19 Kanaafuu namni ajajawwan kanneen keessaa xinnaa isaa illee diigu, kan akka warri kaanis diiganiif barsiisu kam iyyuu mootummaa samii keessatti xinnaa jedhama; namni ajajawwan kanneen eeguu fi kan warra kaanis barsiisu kam iyyuu garuu mootummaa samii keessatti guddaa jedhama.
Whosoever therefore shall break one of the left of these commandments, and thereby teach men so to do, he shall be esteemed very little in the kingdom of heaven: but whoever shall do as well as teach them, he shall be accounted great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 Ani isinittin hima; qajeelummaan keessan qajeelummaa Fariisotaatii fi qajeelummaa barsiistota seeraa yoo caaluu baate isin dhugumaan mootummaa samiitti hin galtan.
For I tell you, that unless your righteousness exceed that of the scribes and pharisees, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
21 “Isin akka bara dheeraan dura namootaan, ‘Hin ajjeesin; nama ajjeese kamitti iyyuu ni muramaa’jedhame dhageessaniirtu.
Ye have heard, that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever committeth murder, shall be liable to the judgment:
22 Ani garuu isinittin hima; nama obboleessa isaatti dheekkamu hundumaa murtiitu eeggata. Namni obboleessa isaatiin ‘Raatuu’ jedhu hundis murtii waldaatti dhiʼaata. Nama obboleessa isaatiin ‘Doofaa nana!’ jedhu immoo ibidda gahaannamtu isa eeggata. (Geenna g1067)
but I say unto you, that whosoever is angry with his brother without cause shall be liable to the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be obnoxious to the council; but whosoever shall say, "Thou fool," shall be in danger of hell-fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 “Kanaafuu ati yeroo kennaa kee iddoo aarsaatti dhiʼeessitutti yoo akka obboleessi kee komii sirraa qabu yaadatte,
Therefore, if thou bring thine offering to the altar, and there remembrest that thy brother hath any complaint against thee;
24 kennaa kee achuma iddoo aarsaa duratti dhiisii dhaqiitii duraan dursii obboleessa keetti araarami; ergasii kottuutii kennaa kee dhiʼeessi.
leave thy gift there before the altar, and go and first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
25 “Amajaajii kee isa mana murtiitti si geessaa jiru wajjin dafii walii gali. Kanas utuma isa wajjin karaa jirtuu godhi; yoo kanaa achii amajaajiin kee dabarsee abbaa seeraatti si kenna; abbaan seeraa immoo poolisiitti si kenna; atis mana hidhaatti darbatamta.
Be friends with thine adversary quickly, while thou art in the way with him; least the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison:
26 Ani dhuguman sitti hima; ati hamma saantima ishee dhumaa baaftutti achii hin baatu.
verily, I say unto thee, thou shalt not come out from thence, till thou hast paid the very last farthing.
27 “Isin akka, ‘Hin ejjin’jedhame dhageessaniirtu.
Ye have heard, that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
28 Ani garuu isinittin hima; namni hawwiidhaan dubartii ilaalu hundinuu yaada isaatti ishee wajjin ejjeera.
but I tell you, that whosoever looketh on a woman, so as to lust after her, hath already debauched her in his heart.
29 Yoo iji kee mirgaa si gufachiise, of keessaa baasii gati. Dhagni kee guutuun gahaannamitti darbatamuu irra, kutaa dhagna keetii keessaa tokko dhabuu siif wayyaatii. (Geenna g1067)
And therefore if thy right eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one part of thee perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell: (Geenna g1067)
30 Yoo harki kee mirgaa si gufachiise of irraa murii gati. Dhagni kee guutuun gahaannamitti galuu irra, kutaa dhagna keetii keessaa tokko dhabuu siif wayya. (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 limbs should perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 “Namni niitii isaa hiiku kam iyyuu, ‘Waraqaa ragaa hiikkaa haa kennuuf’jedhameera.
And it has been said, whosoever would put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce:
32 Ani garuu isinittin hima; namni utuu isheen halalummaa hin hojjetin niitii isaa hiiku kam iyyuu akka isheen ejjitu ishee taasisa; namni dubartii hiikamte fuudhu kam iyyuus ni ejja.
but I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except on account of whoredom, tempteth her to commit adultery; and if any man marry her that is divorced, he committeth adultery.
33 “Ammas akka warra duriitiin, ‘Waan kakatte Gooftaadhaaf guuti malee sobaan hin kakatin’jedhame dhageessaniirtu.
Again, ye have heard, that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
34 Ani garuu isinittin hima; gonkumaa hin kakatinaa: samiidhaan hin kakatinaa; inni teessoo Waaqaatii;
but I say unto you, swear not at all; neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;
35 yookaan lafaan hin kakatinaa; isheen ejjeta miilla isaatii; yookaan Yerusaalemiin hin kakatinaa; isheen magaalaa Mooticha Guddaatii.
nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King: neither shalt thou swear by thy head,
36 Mataa keetiinis hin kakatin; ati rifeensa tokko illee addeessuu yookaan gurraachesuu hin dandeessuutii.
for thou canst not make one hair of it white or black:
37 Wanni isin jechuu qabdan, ‘Eeyyee’ yookaan ‘Waawuu’ haa taʼu; wanni kanaa achii kam iyyuu isa hamaa sana irraa dhufa.
but let your conversation be yea, yea; no, no; for whatever is more than these, cometh from the evil one.
38 “‘Qooda ijaa, ija; qooda ilkaanii immoo ilkaan’akka jedhame dhageessaniirtu.
Ye have heard, that it has been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
39 Ani garuu isinittin hima. Nama hamaadhaan hin morkatinaa. Yoo namni tokko maddii kee mirgaa si kabale, kaanis itti qabi.
but I say unto you, Set not yourselves against him that injures you, but if any one smite thee on thy right cheek, rather turn to him the other also:
40 Yoo namni tokko si himatee kittaa kee sirraa fudhate, kootii kees kenniif.
and if any one would go to law with thee, to take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also, rather than strive with him:
41 Yoo namni tokko akka ati gara kiiloo meetira tokkoo fi walakkaa isa wajjin deemtu si dirqisiise, ati immoo gara kiiloo meetira sadii isa wajjin deemi.
and if any one shall force thee one mile, go with him two.
42 Nama si kadhatuuf kenni; nama sirraa liqeeffachuu barbaaduttis dugda hin garagalchin.
Give to him that asketh thee, and him, that would borrow of thee, turn not away.
43 “‘Ollaa kee jaalladhu; diina kee jibbi’ akka jedhame dhageessaniirtu.
Ye have heard, that it has been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy:
44 Ani garuu isinittin hima; diinota keessan jaalladhaa; warra isin ariʼataniifis kadhadhaa;
but I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that abuse you and persecute you;
45 kanaanis abbaa keessan kan samii irraatiif ijoollee ni taatu. Inni warra hamoo fi warra gaggaariidhaaf aduu isaa ni baasa; qajeeltotaa fi jalʼootaafis bokkaa ni roobsa.
that ye may be the children of your heavenly Father; for He causeth his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain upon the just and the unjust.
46 Isin warra isin jaallatan qofa yoo jaallattan gatii maalii argattu? Kana immoo qaraxxoonni iyyuu ni godhu mitii?
For if ye love only them that love you, what reward do ye expect? do not even the publicans the same?
47 Isin yoo obboloota keessan qofa nagaa gaafattan warra kaan caalaa maal hojjechuutti jirtu? Kana immoo ormoonni iyyuu ni godhu mitii?
and if ye embrace your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not the publicans so likewise?
48 Akkuma abbaan keessan inni samii irraa mudaa hin qabne sana, isinis warra mudaa hin qabne taʼaa.
Be ye therefore perfect in love and goodness, as your Father who is in heaven is perfect.
