Matthew 5
1 Yesu bu kamona nkangu wu batu wukuma va mbata mongo, wuvuanda. Minlonguki miandi mikutakana va kaba.
When he saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and when he had seated himself, his disciples came to him,
2 Bosi wutona kuba longa. Wutuba:
and opening his lips he began to teach them, saying.
3 Khini kuidi minsukami mu Pheve, bila bawu bavuidi Kipfumu ki Diyilu.
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.
4 Khini kuidi bawu bandila bila bela bombo.
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
5 Khini kuidi bawu badi mintima milembama, bila bawu bela vinginina ntoto.
"Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth."
6 Khini kuidi bawu beta monanga tsatu ayi phuila yi mambu masonga, bila bela yukutusu.
"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for the righteousness, for they shall be completely satisfied.
7 Khini kuidi bawu badi mintima mi kiadi, bila bela kuba mona kiadi.
"Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Khini kuidi bawu badi mintima mivedila, bila bela mona Nzambi.
"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
9 Khini kuidi bawu beti tula ndembama, bila bela tedolo bana ba Nzambi.
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
10 Khini kuidi bawu beta yamusu mu diambu di busonga, bila bawu bavuidi Kipfumu ki Diyilu.
"Blessed are those who have been persecuted in the cause of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Khini kuidi beno enati bakulufinganga, enati bakulu yamisanga ayi enati bakuluvuninanga mambu mambimbi ma phila mu phila mu diambu diama.
"Blessed are you when they shall revile you, and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my name’s sake.
12 Lumona kueno khini, lusakadala bila mfutu wunneni wukuluvingila ku Diyilu. Luzaba mboti ti mimbikudi mi lutuamina mamvawu bobo bayamusulu.
"Rejoice and exult in it, because your reward was great in the heavens; for so did they persecute the prophets before you.
13 —Beno luidi tsalu yi ntoto. Enati tsalu yizimbisidi lueki luandi, mu mbi balenda diaka vutudila lueki beni? Kadi mfunu yisiedi ko, bafueti kuyiloza ku nganda ayi batu bafueti yidiata.
"You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt lose its savor, in what way shall it be salted? It is henceforth good for nothing but to be thrown out and trodden under foot of men.
14 Beno luidi muinda wu nza, divula diodi didi va yilu mongo, dilendi suama ko.
"You are the light of the world. A city built on a hilltop cannot be hid;
15 Enati balemisini muinda, bawu tulanga ku tsi katini ko, vayi va yilu meza muingi wumonisa kiezila kuidi batu boso badi mu nzo.
"nor do men light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the lamp-stand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
16 Diawu bika kiezila kieno kilezimina bobo vadi batu muingi bamona mavanga meno mamboti ayi muingi bakembisa Dise dieno didi ku Diyilu.
"So let your light shine before men that they may see good you do, and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
17 —Lubika yindula ti ndiyiza mu diambu di vonda Mina voti mu diambu di vonda malongi ma mimbikudi. Ndisia kuiza ku vonda ko vayi ndiyiza mu diambu di dukisa miawu.
"Do not suppose that I am come to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I am come not to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 Bila bukiedika ndikulukamba: sumbu Diyilu ayi ntoto bikidi zingi buna kadi kima kimosi kilendi botolo ko mu Mina; ka diambu ko sono kimosi kifioti. Vayi nate mamoso mela vangama.
"In solemn truth I tell you that until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a comma, will pass from the Law until all has taken place.
19 Diawu woso mutu weta bundula muina wawu wumosi wufioti ayi wela longa batu bavanga buawu, wela monika mutu wukhioki mu Kipfumu ki Diyilu. Vayi woso mutu wunlonganga Mina mi Nzambi ayi weta misadila, wela monika mutu wunneni mu Kipfumu ki Diyilu.
"So whoever breaks one of these least commandments, and teaches others to break them, will be least in the kingdom of heaven. But he who keeps them and teaches them, he will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 Bila ndikulukamba enati busonga bueno bukadi viatuka bobo bu Bafalisi ayi bu Minsoniki mi Mina, buna lulendi kota ko mu Kipfumu ki Diyilu.
"For I assure you that unless your righteousness exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not find entrance into the kingdom of heaven.
21 —Luwa ti bakamba kuidi bakulu beto ti: kadi vonda mutu bila woso wela vonda mutu wela samba va ntuala mazuzi.
"You have heard that it was said to the ancients, "Thou shall not commit murder, and "he who commits murder shall be liable to condemnation by the court;
22 Vayi minu ndikulukamba: woso mutu wumfuemina ndiandi wela samba va ntuala mazuzi. Woso mutu wumfinga ndiandi ti: “vungisi”, wela samba na ntuala lukutukunu lu bapfumu banganga Nzambi, ayi woso mutu wunfinga ndiandi ti widi “dilawu” mboti mu kunloza ku mbazu yi bulungi. (Geenna g1067)
but I say to you that he who becomes angry with his brother shall be liable to condemnation by the court; and he who says to his brother’Raca,’ shall be liable to condemnation by the Sanhedrin, while he who curses his brother shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 Enati telimini ku kuma mu vana makaba, ayi tebukidi moyo ti diambu khombꞌaku kabeki,
"If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, and there remember that your brother has a grievance against you,
24 bika makaba maku vana ntuala, kuma, yenda teka dedikisa ayi khombꞌaku bosi yiza vani makaba maku kuidi Nzambi.
"leave there your gift before the altar, and go and make friends with your brother, first of all; then come and offer your gift.
25 Enati mutu wubeki mambu vika wizana ayi niandi bu lukidi mu nzila bila niandi kufunda kuidi zuzi, zuzi maka tuma masodi muingi matula mu nloko.
"Come to terms with your opponent quickly, while you are yet with him on the way to the court, to prevent your opponent from handing you over to the judge, and the judge to the jailer, and so you be thrown into prison.
26 Bukiedika ndikukamba ti mawu kala kaka muna nloko nate wumana futa zimbongo zioso.
"I tell you truly that you would certainly not get out from there until you had paid back the last cent.
27 —Luwa ti ditubu: kadi vanga kitsuza.
"You have heard that it was said, "Thou shalt not commit adultery.
28 Vayi minu ndikulukamba ti woso wuntala nketo mu kunzinina, buna vengi yandi kitsuza mu ntimꞌandi.
But I say to you that whoever looks with lust at a woman has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 Diawu enati dieso diaku, di lubakala Dilembo kuvodisa masumu, mboti mu kudidovula ayi ku diloza thama. Bila bulutidi mboti kuidi ngeyo mu kambu nama kimosi ki nituꞌaku ayi mu tala nitu aku yimvimba yilozama ku bulungi. (Geenna g1067)
And if your eye, your right eye, entices you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to lose one of your bodily organs, than to have your whole body go down into the pit. (Geenna g1067)
30 Bosi enati koko kuaku, ku lubakala, kulembo kuvodisa masumu, mboti wukuzenga ayi wukuloza thama, bila bulutidi mboti kuidi ngeyo mu kambu nama kimosi ki nituꞌaku ayi mu tala nitu aku yimvimba yilozama ku bulungi. (Geenna g1067)
And if your right hand entices you into sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of your bodily organs, than to have your whole body go down into the pit. (Geenna g1067)
31 —Bakamba diaka: “Woso mutu botudi nketo andi buna bufueni kamvana nkanda wu kimbangi wumonisa ti vondidi dikuela.”
"It was also said, "Whoever divorces his wife must give her a bill of separation.
32 Vayi minu ndikulukamba: woso bakala wumvambana ayi nketo andi, bika sia ti mu diambu di kitsuza, buna niandi wunyekudi mu vanga kitsuza. Ayi woso wunkuela nketo wowo mamvandi vengi kitsuza.
But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, makes her an adulteress, and whoever marries her when so divorced, commits adultery.
33 —Luwa diaka ti bakamba kuidi bakulu beto: “kadi vonda ndefi wuleva, vayi dukisa ndefi wuvana Pfumu.”
"Again you have heard that it was said to the men of old, "You must not forswear yourselves, but must perform your vows to the Lord.
34 Minu ndikulukamba lubika kueno levanga ndefi. Kadi levilanga ndefi mu “dizina di Diyilu” bila Diyilu diawu kundu ki Nzambi.
"But I say to you, swear not at all; neither by the sky, for it is God’s throne;
35 Lubika levilanga ndefi mu dizina di ntoto bila va ntoto vawu Nzambi keti tetika malu mandi. Lubika levilanga ndefi mu dizina di Yelusalemi bila diawu divula di Ntinu wunneni.
"nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King.
36 Kadi levilanga ndefi va “ntuꞌaku” bila kulendi kitula lusuki lumosi phembi ko voti ndombi ko.
"Nor must you swear by your head, since you cannot make one hair white or black.
37 Bika lutubanga kaka “Nyinga” bu lufueti tuba nyinga ayi “nana” bu lufueti tuba nana. Bila mambu moso meti buelama va yilu kuidi Satana meti ba.
"But let your word be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the Evil One.
38 —Luwa bu bakamba: “Enati mutu tobudi dieso di ndiandi, niandi mamvandi bafueti tobula dieso diandi; enati mutu kodidi dieno di ndiandi, niandi mamvandi bafueti kola diano diandi.”
"You have heard that it was said, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
39 Vayi minu ndikulukamba: —Lubika kakidila mutu tidi kuvangila mambimbi! Enati bazubidi mbata mu luvenga lumosi, wuntambika diaka luvenga lunkaka.
"But I tell you not to retaliate the injury; but whoever strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to him also;
40 Enati mutu tidi kufunda ayi ziona kikhutu kiaku, buna wunyekudila ayi yunga kiaku.
"and if any one wants to go to law with you and takes away your coat, let him take your cloak also.
41 Enati mutu wukuikidi wudiata yandi mu tezo ki kilometele kimosi, ngeyo buela diati yandi mu tezo ki bikilometele biodi.
"Whoever impresses you to go one mile, go two miles with him.
42 Vana kuidi mutu wowo wukulomba ayi kadi yimina mutu wowo wunzola deva kuidi ngeyo.
"Give to him who asks, and from him who wants to borrow from you, do not turn away.
43 —Luwa ti bakamba: “zolanga ndiaku ayi lendanga mbeni aku”
"You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy."
44 Vayi minu ndikulukamba: Luzola bambeni beno! Lusambidila bobo bakuluyamisanga!
"But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you.
45 Buawu bobo luela bela bana bakiedika ba Dise dieno didi ku Diyilu. Bila niandi weta kienzudila thangu andi kuidi batu bambimbi ayi batu bamboti; weta nokisa mvula kuidi batu basonga ayi kuidi bobo bakambulu basonga.
"So you will become sons of your heavenly Father; for he makes his sun to rise upon sinners as well as saints, and sends rain upon the unjust and the just.
46 Enati lueta zola bobawu beta kuluzola, buna mbi mfutu lumbaka? Bila mimfutisi mi ziphaku mamvawu beta bu vanga.
"For if you love only those who love you, what reward have you?
47 Enati lueta vana kaka mboti kuidi bakhomba zieno, buna diambu mbi diviatukidi lumvanga e? Keti Bapakanu mamvawu beti bu vanga.
"Even the tax-gatherers do that, do they not? And if you show courtesy to your brother only, what are you doing more than others? Even the Gentiles do that, do they not?
48 Vayi beno bufueni luba batu bafuana banga buididi Dise dieno widi ku Diyilu widi wufuana.
"You then must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect."
