Mataayi 5
1 UYesu ye aghavwene amapungha ghala, akatogha pa kidunda, akikala. Avavulanisua vaake vakaluta pa mwene.
But, seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain, —and, when he had taken a seat, his disciples came unto him;
2 pe akategula kukuvavulanisia, akati,
and, opening his mouth, he began teaching them, saying: —
3 “Vafunyilue vano vikumlonda uNguluvi kukila ifingi fyoni ulwakuva vilikwupila uluvonolo lwane ku vutwa uvwa kunyanya.
Happy, the destitute, in spirit; for, theirs, is the kingdom of the heavens;
4 Vafunyilue vano vali nu lusukunalo, ulwakuva uNguluve ilikuvanyamasia.
Happy, they who mourn; for, they, shall be comforted:
5 Vafunyilue avakoola, ulwakuva uNguluve ilivapeela uvuhaasi uvwa iisi.
Happy, the meek; for, they, shall inherit the earth:
6 Vafunyilue vano visyukua kuvomba sino ikeela uNGuluve, ulwakuva uNguluve ilikuvapeela fyoni.
Happy, they who hunger and thirst for righteousness; for, they, shall be filled:
7 Vafunyilue vano vali nu lusungu, ulwakuva uNguluve ilikuvasungukila.
Happy, the merciful; for, they, shall receive mercy:
8 Vafunyilue vano vali nu mwojo um'balafu, ulwakuva vilikumwagha uNguluve.
Happy, the pure, in heart; for, they, shall, see God:
9 Vafunyilue vano vikusambania avaanhu, ulwakuava vitambulwagha vana va Nguluve.
Happy, the peacemakers; for, they, shall be, called sons of God:
10 Vafunyilue vano vipumusivua vwimila kuvomba sino ikeela uNguluve, ulwakuva uvutwa vwa kukyanya vwane.
Happy, they who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake; for, theirs, is the kingdom of the heavens.
11 Mufunyilue umue, avaanhu pano vikuvaligha, vikuvapumusia na kukuvajova fivi mu nyinga vwimila une.
Happy, are ye, whensoever they may reproach you and persecute you, and say every evil thing against you, falsely, for my sake:
12 Muhovokaghe fiijo na kuuva nu lukeelo, ulwakuva uluvonolo lwinu kukyanya, lugome. Enendiiki nava vavili vano valyalongwile fye valyapumusivue.
Rejoice and exult, because, your reward, is great in the heavens; for, so, persecuted they the prophets who were before you.
13 Umue muli mwinyo ku vaanhu va mu iisi. Neke umwinyo ghungasupuke lwoni, ndepoonu ghuviika kiki kugomosia ulunoneesi? Umwinyo ughuo, naghunoghiile nambe padebe, looli ghuuva ghwa kutaghua, ghukanyweghe na vaanhu.
Ye, are the salt of the earth; but, if the salt become tasteless, wherewith shall it be salted? it is good, for nothing, any more, save, being cast out, to be trampled on by men.
14 “Umue muli lumuli ku vaanhu va mu iisi. Ilikaaja lino lijengilue pakyanya pa kidunda, nalingifise.
Ye, are the light of the world: it is impossible for a city to be hid, on the top of a mountain, lying.
15 Kange, vaanhu navikunga itaaala na kukupikila ni liteneka, looli viviika pa kyimilo kuuti jivamulikaghe vooni vano vali mu nyumba.
Neither light they a lamp, and place it under the measure; but upon the lampstand, and it giveth light to all that are in the house.
16 Fye enendiiki, ulumuli lwinu lumulikaghe, kuuti avaanhu valolaghe imbombo siinu inofu, mu uluo vamughiniaghe, uNhaata ghwinu juno ali kukyanya.
In like manner, let your light shine before men, —that they may see your good works, —and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.
17 “Mulekaghe kusaagha kuuti nisile kuvusia indeaghilo sa Moose, nambe imbulanisio isa vavilu, jeeje? Looli nisile kukwilanisia.
Do not think, that I came to pull down the law, or the prophets, —I came not to pull down, but to fulfil.
18 Kyang'haani nikuvavuula kuuti, uvulanga ni iisi pano fikyale kusovanika, nakwekale nambe akakelo kamo aka ndaghilo kano ndepoonu kivusivua, kuhanga fyoni fino uNguluve alyalaghile, fivombeke.
For, verily, I say unto you, until the heaven and the earth shall pass away, one least letter, or one point, may in nowise pass away from the law, till all be accomplished.
19 Lino umuunhu ghweni juno ideenya ululaghilo, nambe luno musaagha kuuti lulaghilo ludebe kukila sooni, kange ivulanisia avange kuvomba uluo, ujuo iiva n'debe fiijo mu nutwa vwa kukyanya. Neke umuunhu ghweni juno ivingilila indaghilo na kuvulanisia avange kuuti vasivingililaghe, ujuo iiva m'baha mu vutwa vwa kukyanya.
Whosoever, therefore, shall relax one of these commandments, the least, and teach men so, shall be called, least, in the kingdom of the heavens; but, whosoever shall do and teach, the same, shall be called, great, in the kingdom of the heavens.
20 Lino, nikuvavuula kuuti, nave uvugholofu vwinu navukika uvugholofu uvwa Vafalisayi nu vwa vavulanisi va ngaghilo, namulingila lusiku mu vutwa vwa kukyanya.
For I say unto you, that, unless your righteousness exceed that of the Scribes and Pharisees, in nowise, may ye enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
21 “Mupuliike vule avakuulu viinu valyavulilue kuuti, 'Nungabudaghe, umuunhu ghweni juno ibuda un'jaake, anoghiile kuhighua,'
Ye have heard, that it was said, to them of olden time, —Thou shalt not commit murder, and, whosoever shall commit murder, shall be, liable, to judgment.
22 Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti umuunhu ghweni juno kalalila un, jaake, anoghile kuhighua. Kange, umuunhu ghweni juno iligha un, jaake kuuti n, jasu, anoghile kuhighua pa kipugha kya valongosi. Umuunhu ghweni juno iligha un'jaaake kuuti mululute, anoghiile kutaghua ku lupumuko lwa mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. (Geenna g1067)
But, I, say unto you, that, every one who is angry with his brother, shall be, liable, to judgment, —and, whosoever shall say to his brother, Worthless one!, shall be, liable, to the high council; and, whosoever shall say, Rebel!, shall be, liable, unto the fiery gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
23 “Lino, nave uletile ilitekelo lyako pa kitekelelo kukuntavulila uNguluve, neke ghukumbuka kuuti un, jaako ali ni lisio nuuve.
If, therefore, thou be bearing thy gift towards the altar, and, there, shouldst remember that, thy brother, hath aught against thee,
24 Lileke ilitekelo ilio pa kitekelelo, neke ulute asambane taasi nu n'jaako, pe ghwise utavule ilitekelo lyako ilio.
leave, there, thy gift before the altar, and withdraw, —first, be reconciled unto thy brother, and, then, coming, be offering thy gift.
25 “Kange, nave umuunhu jumonga ikukutwala kwa mhighi, unsuume ng'haning'haani kuuti musambane vul, e mujiighe. mu sila. Nave naghuvomba uluo, ikukuviika mu mavoko gha mhighi. Ghwope umhighi ikukutwala kwa masinjala kuuti akudindile mu ndinde.
Be making agreement with thine adversary, quickly, while thou art with him, in the way, —lest once thine adversary deliver thee up unto the judge, and the judge, unto the officer, and, into prison, thou be cast.
26 Kyang'haani nikukuvuula, nungahume munkate umuo kuhanga uhombe fyoni fino ghusighilua.
Verily, I say unto thee, In nowise, mayest thou come out from thence, until thou pay the last halfpenny.
27 “Mupuliike vule avaanhu valyavulilue kuuti, 'Nungavwafukaghe.'
Ye have heard, that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
28 Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, umuunhu ghweni juno ikumulola umukijuuva mukwa kunnoghelua, iiva avwafwike naghwo mu mwojo ghwake.
But, I, say unto you, that, Every one who looketh on a woman so as to covet her, already, hath committed adultery with her, in his heart.
29 Lino, iliiso lyako lingakwambusie, ng'omotola, utaaghe ku vutali. Yekuba kusofia ikilungo kimo m'bili, ghwoni kutaghua ku lupumuko lwa mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. (Geenna g1067)
And, if, thy right eye, is causing thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee, —for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, be cast into gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
30 Kange, uluvoko lwako lungakwambusie dumula attaghe ku vutali. Ulwakuva yekuba kusofia ikilungo kimo mu m'bili, kukila um'bili ghwoni kutaghua ku lupumuko lwa mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. (Geenna g1067)
And, if, thy right hand, is causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee, —for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, into gehenna, depart. (Geenna g1067)
31 “Kange, lilyajovilue kuuti, 'Umuunhu juno ikuntavula un'dala ghwake, ampelaghe ikalata ija kuntavula.'
It was said, moreover, Whosoever shall divorce his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement;
32 Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, umuunhu ghweni juno itavula un'dala ghwake, nave un'dala ujuo nam'bwafu, ikumpelela kuuva m'bwafu. Kange, umuunhu angatoole un'dala juno umughoosi antwavil, e, ghwope ivva ivwafuka.
But, I, say unto you, that, Everyone who divorceth his wife—saving for unfaithfulness, causeth her to be made an adulteress, —[and, whosoever shall marry a divorced woman, committeth adultery].
33 “Kange, mupuliike vule avakuulu viinu valyavulilue kuuti, ulekaghe kujiigha isa vudesi, 'Looli pano ujighile, uvombaghe sooni sino ujighile,'
Again, ye have heard that it was said, to them of olden time, Thou shalt not swear falsely, —but shalt render unto the Lord, thine oaths.
34 Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, namungajighaghe nambe pedebe. Namungajighaghe mulwa kutambula kukyanya, ulwakuva kye kitengo ikya vutwa ikya Nguluve,
But, I, tell you—not to swear, at all: Neither by heaven, because it is the, throne of God, —
35 Nambe kujiisha mulwa kutambula iisi ulwakuva pepano uNguluvi iviika amaghulu ghaake; nambe kujiigha mulwa kutambula ilikaaja ilya Yelusalemu, ulwakuva lye likaaja lya Ntwa um'baha.
Nor by the earth, because it is his, footstool; nor by Jerusalem, because, it is the, city, of the Great King;
36 Kange, namungajighaghe mulwa kutambula amatu ghiinu, ulwakuva namungadule nambe ulunyele lumo kuuva luvalafu nambe kuuva lutiitu.
Nor, by thine own head, mayest thou swear, because thou art not able to make, one hair, white or black.
37 Lino, nave mukwitika, mutisaghe, 'Eena,' nave mukaana mutisaghe, 'Ndali', ulwakuva sooni sino ikwangelela mu isio, sihuma kwa Mhosi uSetano.
But let your word be, Yea, yea, —Nay, nay; and, what goeth beyond these, is, of evil.
38 “Mupulike vule lilyajovilue kuuti, 'Umuunhu angakung'omotole iliiso, na juuve ng'omotola ilyake, angakukuule iliino, na juuve kuula ilyake.'
Ye have heard, that it was said, —Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.
39 neke une nikakuvuula kuuti, umuunhu juno akuvombiile uvuviivi, nungavangilaghe. Umuunhu angakusevula uvudili uvwa kundio, unsyetukisie nu vwa kung'highi.
But, I, tell you, not to resist evil, —Nay, whoever is smiting thee on the right cheek, turn to him, the other also;
40 Nave umuunhu ikukutwala pa vuhighi kuhighua mu vufumbue uvwa kutoola ighwandi jaako, mulekele atoole nali likooti.
And, him who is desiring thee to be judged, and to take, thy tunic, let him have, thy mantle also.
41 Nave umuunhu ikukwumilisia kupinda unsigho ghwake mu lughendo ulwa kavalilo kamo, uve ulghendaghe ifivalilo fivili.
And, whoever shall impress thee one mile, go with him two:
42 Kange, umuunhu angakusuume kimonga, mpeele. Nav e umuunhu ilinda kukopa kulyuve, nungankanaghe.
To him who is asking thee, give; and, him who is desiring from thee to borrow, do not thou turn away.
43 Mupuliike vule lilyajovilue kuuti, Umughanaghe unnino, na kukunkalalila umulugu ghwako.'
Ye have heard, that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
44 Neke une nikuvavuula kuuti, muvaghanaghe avalugu viinu, kange muvasumilaghe kwa Nuluve vano ali vikuva pumusia.
But, I, say unto you, Be loving your enemies, and praying for them who are persecuting you:
45 Apuo pe muuva vaana va Nhaata ghwinu juno ali kukyanya, ulwakuva umwene ikuvapeela ulujuva avaanhu avanofu na vaviivi. Kange, ilikuvapeela ifula avagholofu na vano navagholofu.
That ye may become sons of your Father who is in the heavens: because, his sun, he maketh arise on evil and good, and sendeth rain, on just and unjust.
46 Mungavaghane va vano vikuvaghana umue, muuva nu luvumbililo luki? Ongo voope avasongesia songo vivomba vulevul, e.
For, if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? are not, even the tax-collectors, the same thing, doing?
47 Kange, nave mukuvahungila va vajiinu muvomba kiki ikinofu kukila avange? Ongo voope avapanji vihungilana vule vule.
And, if ye salute your brethren only, what, more than common, are ye doing? are not, even the nations, the same thing, doing?
48 Lino, muvisaghe vagholofu ndavule uNhaata ghwinu juno ali kukyanya vule mugholofu.
Ye, therefore, shall become, perfect: as, your heavenly Father, is perfect.
