Matayu 5
1 Yesu pakagawoniti mapinga ga wantu, kakweniti kulugongu, kalivagiti pasi. Wafundwa wakuwi walivagiti pawamzyengeta,
Seeing the multitude of people, Jesus went up the Hill. There He seated Himself, and when His disciples came to Him,
2 na Yomberi kanjiti kuwafunda.
He proceeded to teach them, and said:
3 “Mbaka ya woseri yawawera wahushu wa shirohu, Toziya Ufalumi wa mpindi ndo wawu!
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
4 Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera na hinginiku, Toziya Mlungu hakawazyangizyangi!
"Blessed are the mourners, for they shall be comforted.
5 Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera wapoli, Toziya hawayihali isi.
"Blessed are the meek, for they as heirs shall obtain possession of the earth.
6 Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera na njala na yimiluwa ya kutenda gakafira Mlungu, Mlungu hakawayukutiziyi!
"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be completely satisfied.
7 Mbaka kwa woseri yawawera na lusungu kwa wamonga, Mlungu hakawawoneri lusungu womberi!
"Blessed are the compassionate, for they shall receive compassion.
8 Mbaka kwa woseri yawamfira Mlungu kwa myoyu yawu yoseri, Womberi hawamwoni Mlungu!
"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
9 Mbaka kwa woseri yawajega ponga, Mlungu hakawashemi wana wakuwi!
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for it is they who will be recognized as sons of God.
10 “Mbaka kwa woseri yawatabika toziya yakutenda gakafira Mlungu, Ufalumi wa kumpindi ndo gwawu!
"Blessed are those who have borne persecution in the cause of Righteousness, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
11 “Mbaka mwenga wantu pawawigilanga na kuwazulumu na kuwatendera madoda ga ntambu zoseri toziya mwenga munjimila neni.
"Blessed are you when they have insulted and persecuted you, and have said every cruel thing about you falsely for my sake.
12 Mwenga mnemeli na kusekelera toziya mafupu genu ndo makulu kumpindi kwa Mlungu. Hangu ndo ntambu yawalikaliti wambuyi wa makashu wa Mlungu pamberi pa mwenga.
Be joyful and triumphant, because your reward is great in the Heavens; for so were the Prophets before you persecuted.
13 “Mwenga mulifana gambira munu gwa pasipanu. Kumbiti munu pagwasa unoga wakuwi, kwahera njira yingi yakugutenda gunogi kayi. Hapeni gufayi, su hawagwasi kunja na wantu hawagutimbangi.
"You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has become tasteless, in what way can it regain its saltness? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown away and trodden on by the passers by.
14 “Mwenga ndo langala ya pasipanu! Lushi lwa walunyawiti mulugongu hapeni lulififi.
You are the light of the world; a town cannot be hid if built on a hill-top.
15 “Kwahera wantu yawawasha shikoloboyi na kushigubikira na shiwiga, badala yakuwi hakashituli pampindi pa shintambi, su kulangala kwakuwi kulangali kwa kila muntu mnumba.
Nor is a lamp lighted to be put under a bushel, but on the lampstand; and then it gives light to all in the house.
16 Ntambu ira ayi, langala ya mwenga ilangali mpaka kulongolu kwa wantu, su wagaloli matendu genu gaherepa, wamkwisi Tati gwenu yakawera kumpindi.
Just so let your light shine before all men, in order that they may see your holy lives and may give glory to your Father who is in Heaven.
17 “Namulihola handa niza kuwusiya Lilagaliru lya Musa na mafundu ga wambuyi wa Mlungu. Niza ndiri kugawusiya Malagaliru, kumbiti kutenda mafundu gawu gatendeki.
"Do not for a moment suppose that I have come to abrogate the Law or the Prophets: I have not come to abrogate them but to give them their completion.
18 Nukugambirani nakaka, kumpindi na pasipanu pazipelera, kumbiti hapeni ata shisoweru shididini ama seemu ndidini yavilembitwi Mumalagaliru yiwusiwi, su mpaka mafundu goseri gatendeki.
Solemnly I tell you that until Heaven and earth pass away, not one iota or smallest detail will pass away from the Law until all has taken place.
19 Su yoseri yakamegi ata lilagaliru limu lididini na kuwafunda wamonga watendi viraa, ayu hakaweri mdidini muufalumi wa kumpindi kwa Mlungu. Kumbiti ulii yakabatira malagaliru na kuwafunda wamonga kutenda viraa, muntu ayu hakaweri mkulu muufalumi wa kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
Whoever therefore breaks one of these least commandments and teaches others to break them, will be called the least in the Kingdom of the Heavens; but whoever practises them and teaches them, he will be acknowledged as great in the Kingdom of the Heavens.
20 Toziya nukugambirani, handa kumfiriziya Mlungu kwamwenga pakakanka ndiri ulii wa Mafalisayu na wafunda wa Malagaliru, hapeni mwingiri nakamu muufalumi wa kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
For I assure you that unless your righteousness greatly surpasses that of the Scribes and the Pharisees, you will certainly not find entrance into the Kingdom of the Heavens.
21 “Mpikaniriti ntambu ya wantu wagona wawagambiriti, ‘Nagulaga! Na yoseri yakalaga hawamtozi.’
"You have heard that it was said to the ancients, 'Thou shalt not commit murder', and whoever commits murder will be answerable to the magistrate.
22 Kumbiti vinu neni nukugambirani, yoseri yakawera na maya kwa mlongu gwakuwi hawamtozi, yakamzarawu mlongu gwakuwi hawamjegi mumahakama. Na yakamshema mlongu gwakuwi, ‘Mzigizigi’ hakaweri muhatari ya kwingira mumotu gwa Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
But I say to you that every one who becomes angry with his brother shall be answerable to the magistrate; that whoever says to his brother 'Raca,' shall be answerable to the Sanhedrin; and that whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 Su pagulaviya mafupu gaku pashitalawanda sha kutambikira na gulihola gwana ungondu na mlongu gwaku,
If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, you remember that your brother has a grievance against you,
24 guleki mafupu gaku pashitalawanda sha kutambikira, guwuyi huti gwakatendi ponga na mlongu gwaku, su gwizi na gulaviyi mafupu gaku kwa Mlungu.
leave your gift there before the altar, and go and make friends with your brother first, and then return and proceed to offer your gift.
25 “Gupatani na mstaki gwaku kanongola pamuwera mwankali munjira kugenda kumahakama. Pagutenda ndiri hangu, mstaki gwaku hakakujegi kwa mtoza, nayomberi hakakujegi kwa wanjagila wakutatili mushibetubetu.
Come to terms without delay with your opponent while you are yet with him on the way to the court; for fear he should obtain judgement from the magistrate against you, and the magistrate should give you in custody to the officer and you be thrown into prison.
26 Nakaka nukugambira, hapeni gulawi mulii mpaka gulipi ligwala lya kumalalira.
I solemnly tell you that you will certainly not be released till you have paid the very last farthing.
27 “Mpikanira handa wantu wawagambiriti, ‘Nagutenda uhumba!’
"You have heard that it was said, 'Thou shalt not commit adultery.'
28 Su vinu neni nukugambirani, yoseri yakamlola mdala kwa kufira kutenda nayu undiyandiya, muntu ayu katenda kala uhumba mumoyu mwakuwi.
But I tell you that whoever looks at a woman and cherishes lustful thoughts has already in his heart become guilty with regard to her.
29 Su, lisu lyaku lya kumliwu palitenda gutendi vidoda, gulikolopoli na kuliyasa kutali! Mbaka nentu kwasa shiwungu shimu sha nshimba yaku, kuliku nshimba yaku yoseri wayasi mumotu gwa Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
If therefore your eye, even the right eye, is a snare to you, tear it out and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should be thrown into Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
30 Handa liwoku lyaku lya kumliwu litenda gutendi vidoda, gulidumuli na kulyasa kutali! Mbaka nentu gwenga kwasa shiwungu shimu munshimba yaku, kuliku nshimba yaku yoseri kwingira mumotu gwa Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
And if your right hand is a snare to you, cut it off and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should go into Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
31 “Itakulitwi kala viraa, ‘Yakamleka mdala gwakuwi ifiruwa kampanani malembu ga kumleka.’
"It was also said, 'If any man puts away his wife, let him give her a written notice of divorce.'
32 Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, yakamupanana mdala gwakuwi malembu ga kumleka, tembera ndiri kwa shitwatira, kamtenda kaweri mndiyandiya, na muntu pakamyuga mdala yawampananiti malembu ga kumleka, katenda uhumba.”
But I tell you that every man who puts away his wife except on the ground of unfaithfulness causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries her when so divorced commits adultery.
33 “Kayi mpikanira handa wantu wagona wawagambiriti, ‘Naguleka kulirapa kwaku, kumbiti gutendi ntambu yagulirapa kwa Mtuwa.’
"Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, 'Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt perform thy vows to the Lord.'
34 Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, nagulirapira kwa ntambu yoseri ilii. Nagulirapira kwa kumpindi, toziya ndo shibanta sha ufalumi sha Mlungu,
But I tell you not to swear at all; neither by Heaven, for it is God's throne;
35 ama mupasipanu, mana ndo shiti shakuwi sha kutulila magulu, ama kwa Yerusalemu toziya ndo lushi lwa Mfalumi mkulu.
nor by the earth, for it is the footstool under His feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the City of the Great King.
36 Nagulirapira ata kwa mtuwi gwaku, toziya hapeni guwezi kutenda ata vilii yimu iweri neru ama ntiti.
And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.
37 Pagutakula ‘Yina’ su iweri ‘Yina’, pagutakula ‘Ndala’ su iweri ‘Ndala’. Shoseri shilii shagutakula kunja na ashi shilawa kwa ulii Shetani.
But let your language be, 'Yes, yes,' or 'No, no.' Anything in excess of this comes from the Evil one.
38 “Mpikaniriti ntambu yawatakulaga, ‘Lisu kwa lisu na linu kwa linu.’
"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, tooth for tooth.'
39 Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, namumwuzilira muntu mdoda. Muntu pakakukoma lisaya lya kumliwu gumleki kakukomi viraa na lya kumshigi.
But I tell you not to resist a wicked man, but if any one strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to him as well.
40 Muntu pakakujegera kumahakama kafira kalitoli lishati lyaku, gumlekeri viraa na likoti lyaku.
If any one wishes to go to law with you and to deprive you of your under garment, let him take your outer one also.
41 Na muntu pakakulazimisha kupapa shisanka shakuwi kilumita yimu, gushipapi kilumita mbili.
And whoever shall compel you to convey his goods one mile, go with him two.
42 Muntu yakakuluwa gumpanani, nagumpanana shisogu muntu yakafira kukuwanda shintu.
To him who asks, give: from him who would borrow, turn not away.
43 “Mpikanira ntambu yawatakuliti, ‘Guwafiri waganja waku na guwakalaliri wang'ondu waku.’
"You have heard that it was said, 'Thou shalt love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy.'
44 Kumbiti neni nukugambirani, muwafiri wang'ondu wenu na muwaluwili kwa Mlungu walii yawakuzulumani,
But I command you all, love your enemies, and pray for your persecutors;
45 su hamuweri wana wa Tati gwenu kakumpindi. Yomberi kawawalira mshenji wantu wadoda na wantu waheri na kawatowera viraa wantu woseri yawamfiriziya Mlungu na wantu yawamfiriziya ndiri Mlungu.
that so you may become true sons of your Father in Heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the wicked as well as the good, and sends rain upon those who do right and those who do wrong.
46 Hashi, Mlungu hakakupanani mafupu ga ntambu gaa pamuwafira hera walii yawawafira mwenga? Ata watola kodi watenda viraa!
For if you love only those who love you, what reward have you earned? Do not even the tax-gatherers do that?
47 Handa pamuwalamusiya hera walongu wenu, hashi, mtenda shitwatira sha hera hangu ndiri? Ata wantu yawamumana ndiri Mlungu watenda viraa!
And if you salute only your near relatives, what praise is due to you? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?
48 Muweri waheri ntambu yakawera muheri Tati gwenu kakumpindi!
You however are to be complete in goodness, as your Heavenly Father is complete.
