Mātiu 5
1 Pea ʻi heʻene mamata ki he kakai tokolahi, naʻe ʻalu hake ia ki he moʻunga: pea kuo nofo hifo ia, pea haʻu ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia:
Seeing the multitude of people, Jesus went up the Hill. There He seated Himself, and when His disciples came to Him,
2 Pea lea ia, ʻo ne akonaki kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē,
He proceeded to teach them, and said:
3 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae angavaivai: he ʻoku ʻonautolu ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi.
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
4 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku tangi: he te nau maʻu ʻae fiemālie.
"Blessed are the mourners, for they shall be comforted.
5 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae angamalū: he te nau maʻu ʻae fonua.
"Blessed are the meek, for they as heirs shall obtain possession of the earth.
6 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku fiekaia mo fieinua ki he māʻoniʻoni: he te nau fonu ai.
"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be completely satisfied.
7 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae manavaʻofa: he te nau maʻu ʻae ʻofa.
"Blessed are the compassionate, for they shall receive compassion.
8 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae loto maʻa: he te nau mamata ki he ʻOtua.
"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
9 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae faʻa fakalelei: ʻe ui ai ʻakinautolu ko e fānau ʻae ʻOtua.
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for it is they who will be recognized as sons of God.
10 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu kuo fakatangaʻi koeʻuhi ko e māʻoniʻoni: he ʻoku ʻonautolu ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi.
"Blessed are those who have borne persecution in the cause of Righteousness, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
11 “ʻOku monūʻia ʻakimoutolu, ʻoka manukia, mo fakatangaʻi, mo lohiekina ʻakimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kovi kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ko au.
"Blessed are you when they have insulted and persecuted you, and have said every cruel thing about you falsely for my sake.
12 Mou fiemālie ʻo fiefia lahi ʻaupito: he ʻoku lahi hoʻomou totongi ʻi he langi: he naʻe pehē ʻenau fakatangaʻi ʻae kau palōfita naʻe muʻa ʻiate kimoutolu.
Be joyful and triumphant, because your reward is great in the Heavens; for so were the Prophets before you persecuted.
13 “Ko e māsima ʻo māmani ʻakimoutolu: pea kapau kuo mole ʻi he māsima hono kona, ʻe toe fakakonaʻi fēfeeʻi ia? Ngata ai, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaonga ia, ka ke lī ki tuaʻā, pea ke molomoloki ia ʻe he kakai.
"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 “Ko e maama ʻo māmani ʻakimoutolu. Ko e kolo ʻoku tuʻu ʻi ha moʻunga, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakapuli ia.
You are the light of the world; a town cannot be hid if built on a hill-top.
15 Pea ʻoku ʻikai tutu ha maama, mo tuku ia ʻi he lalo puha fua, ka ki he tuʻunga maama; pea ʻoku ulo ia kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he fale.
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 Tuku ke ulo pehē hoʻomou maama ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, koeʻuhi ke nau mamata ki hoʻomou ngaahi ngāue lelei, pea fakamālōʻia ʻa hoʻomou Tamai ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he langi.
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 “ʻOua naʻa mou mahalo kuo u haʻu ke fakataʻeʻaongaʻi ʻae fono, pe ko e kau palōfita: naʻe ʻikai te u haʻu ke fakataʻeʻaongaʻi, ka ke fakamoʻoni.
"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 He ʻoku ou tala moʻoni kiate kimoutolu, ʻE tomuʻa mole ʻae langi mo e fonua ka ʻe ʻikai mole ha kihiʻi konga siʻi mei he fono, ka ʻe fakamoʻoni kotoa pē.
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 Ko ia te ne liʻaki ha [fekau ]siʻi ʻi he ngaahi fekau ni, pea akonaki pehē ki he kakai, ʻe ui ia ko e siʻi hifo ʻi he puleʻanga ʻoe langi: ka ko ia te ne fai ia, mo akonaki ʻaki ia, ʻe ui ia ko e lahi ʻi he puleʻanga ʻoe langi.
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 He ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Kapau ʻe ʻikai lahi hake hoʻomou māʻoniʻoni ʻi he [māʻoniʻoni ]ʻoe kau tangata tohi mo e Fālesi, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te mou hū ki he puleʻanga ʻoe langi.
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 “Kuo mou fanongo naʻe pehē kiate kinautolu ʻi muʻa, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke fakapō; pea ko ia ʻe fakapō ʻe tuʻutāmaki ia ki he fakamaau.’
"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 Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻe ʻita noa pē ki hono kāinga, ʻe tuʻutāmaki ia ki he fakamaau: pea ko ia te ne ui hono kāinga, ‘Ko e vale,’ ʻe tuʻutāmaki ia ki he fakamaau lahi: ka ko ia te ne lea pehē, ‘Ko e faha koe,’ ʻe tuʻutāmaki ia ki he afi ʻo heli. (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 Ko ia kapau ʻoku ke ʻomi hoʻo meʻa foaki ki he ʻesi feilaulau, pea ke toki manatuʻi ai ʻoku koviʻia ho kāinga kiate koe;
If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, you remember that your brother has a grievance against you,
24 Tuku hoʻo meʻa foaki ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻesi feilaulau, pea ke ʻalu koe; ʻo tomuʻa fakalelei ki ho kāinga, pea ke toki haʻu, ʻo ʻoatu hoʻo meʻa foaki.
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 “Fakalelei vave mo ho fili, lolotonga hoʻomo kei ʻi he hala mo ia, telia naʻa tukuange koe ʻe ho fili ki he fakamaau, pea tuku koe ʻe he fakamaau ki he pule, pea ʻe tuku koe ki he fale fakapōpula.
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 Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni kiate koe, ʻE ʻikai ʻaupito te ke hao mei ai, kaeʻoua ke ke ʻoatu ʻae totongi kotoa pē.
I solemnly tell you that you will certainly not be released till you have paid the very last farthing.
27 “Kuo mou fanongo naʻe pehē kiate kinautolu ʻi muʻa, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke tono fefine:’
"You have heard that it was said, 'Thou shalt not commit adultery.'
28 Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻoku fakasio ki ha fefine ke holi ki ai, ʻoku tonoʻi ia ʻe ia ʻi hono loto.
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 Pea kapau ʻoku fakahalaʻi koe ʻe ho mata toʻomataʻu, kapeʻi ia, ʻo liʻaki ia ʻiate koe: he ʻoku ʻaonga kiate koe ke ʻauha ho konga ʻe taha, kaeʻoua naʻa lī ho sino kotoa ki heli. (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 Pea kapau ʻe fakahalaʻi koe ʻe ho nima toʻomataʻu, tutuʻu ia, ʻo liʻaki ia ʻiate koe; he ʻoku ʻaonga kiate koe ke ʻauha ho konga ʻe taha, kaeʻoua naʻa lī ho sino kotoa ki heli. (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 “Naʻe tala, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko ia ʻoku tukuange hono uaifi, ke ne ʻoange kiate ia ʻae tohi māvae:’
"It was also said, 'If any man puts away his wife, let him give her a written notice of divorce.'
32 Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻe tukuange hono uaifi, ka ʻi heʻene tono tangata, ʻoku ne fakatonotangataʻi ia: pea ko ia ʻe mali mo ia kuo fakamāvae, ko e tono fefine ia.
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 “Kuo mou fanongo foki, naʻe pehē ʻiate kinautolu ʻi muʻa, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke fuakava loi, ka ke fai kia Sihova hoʻo fuakava:’
"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 Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoua te mou fuakava: pe ki he langi; he ko e ʻafioʻanga ia ʻoe ʻOtua:
But I tell you not to swear at all; neither by Heaven, for it is God's throne;
35 pe ki he fonua; he ko hono tuʻungavaʻe: pe ki Selūsalema; he ko e kolo ia ʻoe Tuʻi lahi.
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 Pea ʻoua naʻa ke fuakava ki ho ʻulu, he ʻoku ʻikai te ke faʻa ngaohi ha tuʻoni louʻulu ke hinehina pe ʻuliʻuli.
And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.
37 Ka ʻi hoʻomou alea, ke ‘ʻIo’ pe hoʻomou ‘ʻIo;’ mo ‘ʻIkai’ pe hoʻomou ‘ʻIkai:’ he ko ia ʻoku fakalahi ʻaki ʻa eni, ʻoku tupu ʻi he kovi.
But let your language be, 'Yes, yes,' or 'No, no.' Anything in excess of this comes from the Evil one.
38 “Kuo mou fanongo naʻe lea pehē, ‘[Ke totongi ]ʻaki ʻae mata ʻae mata, mo e nifo ʻae nifo:’
"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, tooth for tooth.'
39 Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ke ʻoua naʻa mou talia ha taha angakovi: ka ko ia te ne sipiʻi ho [kouʻahe ]toʻomataʻu, fulihi atu foki kiate ia ho kouʻahe ʻe taha.
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 Pea kapau ʻe loto ha taha ke fakamaau koe, ka ne maʻu ai ho kofutuʻa, tuku ke ne maʻu mo ho pulupulu foki.
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 Pea ko ia ʻe fakafiuʻi koe ke mo ō mo ia ʻi he maile ʻe taha, ʻalu mo ia [ʻi he maile ]ʻe ua.
And whoever shall compel you to convey his goods one mile, go with him two.
42 Foaki kiate ia ʻoku kole kiate koe, pea ʻoua naʻa fulituʻa kiate ia ʻoku fie nō meiate koe.
To him who asks, give: from him who would borrow, turn not away.
43 “Kuo mou fanongo naʻe lea pehē, ‘Ke ke ʻofa ki ho kaungāʻapi, kae fehiʻa ki ho fili.’
"You have heard that it was said, 'Thou shalt love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy.'
44 Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻOfa ki homou ngaahi fili, tāpuakiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku kapeʻi ʻakimoutolu, fai lelei kiate kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate kimoutolu, pea hūfia ʻakinautolu ʻoku fai kovi mo fakatanga kiate kimoutolu;
But I command you all, love your enemies, and pray for your persecutors;
45 koeʻuhi ke mou taau mo e fānau ʻa hoʻomou Tamai ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he langi: he ʻoku ne pule ke hopo ʻene laʻā ki he angakovi mo e angalelei, pea ʻoku ne tuku ʻae ʻuha ki he angatonu mo e taʻeangatonu.
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 He kapau ʻoku mou ʻofa kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻofa kiate kimoutolu, ko e hā ʻae totongi te mou maʻu? He ʻikai ʻoku fai pehē ʻae kau tānaki tukuhau?
For if you love only those who love you, what reward have you earned? Do not even the tax-gatherers do that?
47 Pea kapau ʻoku mou feʻofoʻofani mo homou kāinga pe, ʻoku lelei lahi hake ia? He ʻikai ʻoku pehē ʻae kau tānaki tukuhau?
And if you salute only your near relatives, what praise is due to you? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?
48 Ko ia ke haohaoa ʻakimoutolu he ʻoku haohaoa ʻa hoʻomou Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi.
You however are to be complete in goodness, as your Heavenly Father is complete.
