Mateo 19
1 Eta guertha cedin, Iesus propos hauc acabaturic parti baitzedin Galileatic, eta ethor baitzedin Iudeaco bazterretara, Iordanaren berce aldeaz.
At the conclusion of this teaching, Jesus withdrew from Galilee, and went into that district of Judea which is on the other side of the Jordan.
2 Eta iarreiqui cequión gendetze handi, eta senda citzan han.
Great crowds followed him, and he cured them there.
3 Orduan ethor citecen harengana Phariseuac tentatzen çutela, eta ciotsatela, Vtzi ahal diro guiçonac bere emaztea eceinere causagatic?
Presently some Pharisees came up to him, and, to test him, said: “Has a man the right to divorce his wife for every cause?”
4 Baina harc ihardesten çuela erran ciecén, Eztuçue iracurri ecen Creaçaleac hatsetic eguin cituela arra eta emea?
“Have not you read,” replied Jesus, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’
5 Eta erran çuela, Halacotz vtziren ditu guiçonac aita eta ama, eta iunctaturen çayó bere emazteari, eta içanen dirade biac haraguibat.
and said — ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother, and be united to his wife, and the man and his wife shall become one’?
6 Bada guehiagoric eztirade biga, baina haraguibat. Beraz Iaincoac iunctatu duena, guiçonac ezteçala separa.
So that they are no longer two, but one. What God himself, then, has yoked together man must not separate.”
7 Diotsate, Cergatic beraz Moysesec manatu vkan du separationeco letraren emaitera, eta haren vtzitera?
“Why, then,” they said, “did Moses direct that a man should ‘serve his wife with a notice of separation and divorce her’?”
8 Dioste, Moysesec çuen bihotzeco gogortassunagatic permettitu drauçue çuen emaztén vtzitera: baina hatsetic etzén hala.
“Moses, owing to the hardness of your hearts,” answered Jesus, “permitted you to divorce your wives, but that was not so at the beginning.
9 Eta erraiten drauçuet ecen norc-ere vtziren baitu bere emaztea, paillardiçagatic baicen, eta berce batequin ezconduren baita, adulterio iauquiten duela: eta vtzi denarequin ezconduren datenac adulterio iauquiten duqueela.
But I tell you that any one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of her unchastity, and marries another woman, is guilty of adultery.”
10 Diotsate bere discipuluéc, Baldin horlaco bada guiçonaren emaztearequilaco beharquia, eztuc on ezconcea.
“If that,” said the disciples, “is the position of a man with regard to his wife, it is better not to marry.”
11 Baina harc erran ciecén, Eztute guciéc ardiesten hitz haur, baina eman içan çayenéc.
“It is not every one,” replied Jesus, “who can accept this teaching, but only those who have been enabled to do so.
12 Ecen badirade chikiratuac amaren sabeletic hala iayo içan diradenac: eta badirade chikiratuac, guiçonéz chilkiratu içan diradenac: eta badirade chikiratuac ceruétaco resumagatic bere buruäc chikiratu vkan dituztenac. Har ahal deçanac, har beça.
Some men, it is true, have from birth been disabled for marriage, while others have been disabled by their fellow men, and others again have disabled themselves for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven. Let him accept it who can.”
13 Orduan haourtchoac presentatu içan çaizcan escuac gainean eçar lietzençat eta othoitz leguiançat: eta discipuluec mehatcha citzaten.
Then some little children were brought to Jesus, for him to place his hands on them, and pray; but the disciples found fault with those who had brought them.
14 Baina Iesusec dioste, Vtzitzaçue haourtchoac, eta enegana ethortetic eztitzaçuela empatcha: ecen hunelacoén da ceruètaco resumá.
Jesus, however, said: “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for it is to the childlike that the Kingdom of Heaven belongs.”
15 Eta escuac gainean eçarri cerauztenean, parti cedin handic.
So he placed his hands on them, and then went on his way.
16 Eta huná, cembeitec hurbilduric erran cieçón, Magistru oná, cer vngui eguinen dut vicitzé eternala dudançat? (aiōnios g166)
And a man came up to Jesus, and said: “Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain Immortal Life?” (aiōnios g166)
17 Eta harc erran cieçón, Cergatic deitzen nauc on? eztuc nehor onic bat baicen, eta hura, Iaincoa: baldin vicitzean sarthu nahi bahaiz, beguiraitzac manamenduac.
“Why ask me about goodness?” answered Jesus. “There is but One who is good. If you want to enter the Life, keep the commandments.”
18 Diotsó, Cein? Eta Iesusec erran ceçan Eztuc hilen, Eztuc adulteraturen, Eztuc ebatsiren, Eztuc testimoniage falsuric erranen.
“What commandments?” asked the man. “These,” answered Jesus: — “‘Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not say what is false about others.
19 Ohoraitzac aita eta ama. Eta, Onhetsiren duc eure hurcoa eure buruä beçala.
Honour thy father and thy mother.’ And ‘Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thou dost thyself.”
20 Diotsó guiçon gazteorrec, Horiac guciac beguiratu citiat neure gaztetassunetic: cer oraino falta çait?
“I have observed all these,” said the young man. “What is still wanting in me?”
21 Diotsó Iesusec, Baldin perfect içan nahi bahaiz, oha, sal eçac duana, eta eman iecéc paubrey: eta vkanen duc thesaurbat ceruän: eta athor, arreit niri.
“If you wish to be perfect,” answered Jesus, “go and sell your property, and give to the poor, and you shall have wealth in Heaven; then come and follow me.”
22 Eta ençun çuenean guiçon gazteorrec hitz hori, ioan cedin tristeric: ecen on handiac cituen.
On hearing these words, the young man went away distressed, for he had great possessions.
23 Orduan Iesusec erran ciecén bere discipuluey, Eguiaz erraiten drauçuet, ecen abratsa nequez sarthuren dela ceruètaco resumán.
At this, Jesus said to his disciples: “I tell you that a rich man will find it hard to enter the Kingdom of Heaven!
24 Eta berriz diotsuet, errachago dela cablebat orratzaren chulhotic iragan dadin, ecen ez abratsa Iaincoaren resumán sar dadin.
I say again, it is easier for a camel to get through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven!”
25 Gauça hauc ençunic haren discipuluac spanta citecen haguitz, cioitela, Nor da beraz salua ahal daitenic?
On hearing this, the disciples exclaimed in great astonishment: “Who then can possibly be saved?”
26 Eta Iesusec hetarat behaturic, erran ciecén, Guiçonac baithan hori impossible da: baina Iaincoa baithan gauça guciac possible dirade.
But Jesus looked at them, and said: “With men this is impossible, but with God everything is possible.” Then Peter turned and said to Jesus:
27 Orduan ihardesten çuela Pierrisec erran cieçón, Huná, guc vtzi citiagu gauça guciac, eta iarreiqui gaitzaizquic hiri: cer içanen da beraz gure?
“But we — we left everything, and followed you; what, then, shall we have?”
28 Eta Iesusec erran ciecén, Eguiaz diotsuet, ecen çuec niri iarreiqui çaizquidatenóc, regenerationean iarriren denean guiçonaren Semea bere maiestatearen thronoan, iarriren çaretela çuec-ere hamabi thronoén gainean, iugeatzen dituçuela Israeleco hamabi leinnuac.
“I tell you,” answered Jesus, “that at the New Creation, ‘when the Son of Man takes his seat on his throne of glory,’ you who followed me shall be seated upon twelve thrones, as judges of the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 Eta norc-ere vtzi baituque etcheric, edo anayeric, edo arrebaric, edo aita, edo ama, edo emaztea, edo haourric, edo landaric ene icenaren causaz, ehunetan hambat recebituren duela, eta vicitze eternala heretaturen. (aiōnios g166)
Every one who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or land, on account of my Name, will receive many times as much, and will ‘gain Immortal Life.’ (aiōnios g166)
30 Baina anhitz lehen diradenac, içanen dirade azquen: eta azquenac, lehen.
But many who are first now will then be last, and those who are last will be first.
