Mateo 23
1 Orduan Iesus minça cequien gendetzey eta bere discipuluey.
Then, Jesus spake unto the multitudes and unto his disciples,
2 Cioela, Moysesen cadirán iarten dirade Scribác eta Phariseuac:
saying—Upon Moses’ seat, have sat down, the Scribes and the Pharisees:
3 Cerere bada erranen baitrauçue beguira deçaçuen, beguira eçaçue eta eguiçue: baina hayén obrén araura eztaguiçuela: ecen erraiten duté, eta ez eguiten.
All things, therefore, whatsoever they tell you, do and observe, —but, according to their works, do ye not, for they, say, and do not, perform.
4 Ecen carga piçuac eta iassan ecin daitezquenac biltzen dituzté, eta eçarten guiçonén soinetara: baina bere erhiaz hunqui nahi eztituzté.
But they bind together heavy burdens, and lay upon men’s shoulders, whereas, they, with their finger, are not willing to move them.
5 Eta bere obra guciac eguiten dituzté guiçonéz ikus ditecençát: ecen çabaltzen dituzté bere philacterioac, eta luçatzen dituzté bere veztimendetaco bazterrac.
But, all their works, they do, to be gazed at, by men, —for they make broad their amulets, and make large their fringes,
6 Eta on darizté lehen placey banquetetan, eta lehen cadirey synagoguetan,
And dearly love the first couch in the chief meals, and the first seats in the synagogues,
7 Eta salutationey merkatuetan, eta guiçonéz deithu içateari Magistruá, Magistruá.
And the salutations in the market-places, and to be called by men, Rabbi.
8 Baina çuec etzaiteztela dei Magistru: ecen bat da çuen doctora, Christ: eta çuec gucioc, anaye çarete.
But, ye, —do not be called Rabbi, —for, one, is your Teacher, and, all ye, are brethren;
9 Eta çuen aita ezteçaçuela nehor dei lurrean: ecen bat da çuen Aita, ceruètan dena.
And, father, be none of you called, upon the earth, for, one, is your Father, the Heavenly;
10 Eta etzaiteztela dei doctor: ecen bat da çuen doctora, Christ.
Neither be called leaders, for, your leader, is one, the Christ;
11 Baina çuen artean handién dena, biz çuen cerbitzari.
And, the greatest of you, shall be to you, a minister;
12 Ecen bere buruä goraturen duena, beheraturen da: eta bere buruä beheraturen duena, goraturen da.
And, whoever shall exalt himself, shall be, abased, and, whoever shall abase himself, shall be, exalted,
13 Baina maledictione çuen gainean Scriba eta Phariseu hypocritác: ceren ersten baituçue ceruètaco resumá guiçonén aitzinean: ecen çuec etzarete sartzen, eta sartzen diradenac eztituçue vtziten sartzera.
But alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye are locking up the kingdom of the heavens before men, —for, ye, are not entering, neither, them who are entering, suffer ye to enter.
14 Maledictione çuen gainean Scriba eta Phariseu hypocritác, ecen iresten dituçue ema alhargunén etcheac, are luçaqui othoitz eguin irudiz: halacotz duçue condemnatione handiagoa recebituren.
15 Maledictione çuen gainean Scriba eta Phariseu hypocritác, ecen itsassoa eta leihorra inguratzen dituçue, proselytobat daguiçuençát, eta eguin denean, gehennaco seme eguiten duçue dobláz ceuroc baino areago. (Geenna g1067)
Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: because ye compass sea and dry land, to make one convert—and, when it is done, ye make him a son of gehenna, twofold more than ye. (Geenna g1067)
16 Maledictione çuen gainean guidari itsuác, ceinéc baitioçue, Norc-ere iuraturen baitu templeaz, ezta deus: baina norc-ere iuraturen baitu templeco vrrheaz, çordun da.
Alas for you, blind guides! that say—Whosoever shall swear by the Temple, it is, nothing, but, whosoever shall swear by the gold of the Temple, is bound:
17 Erhoác eta itsuác, cein da handiago vrrhea, ala vrrhea sanctificatzen duen templea?
Foolish and blind! for which is, greater, The gold, or the Temple that hath hallowed the gold?
18 Eta erraiten duçue, norc-ere iuraturen baitu aldareaz, ezta deus: baina norc-ere iuraturen baitu haren gainean den oblationeaz, çordun da.
And, whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is, nothing, but, whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, is bound:
19 Erhoác eta itsuác, cein da handiago oblationea, ala oblationea sanctificatzen duen aldarea?
Blind! for which is greater, The gift, or the altar that halloweth the gift?
20 Beraz aldareaz iuratzen duenac, iuratzen du harçaz, eta haren gainean diraden gauça guciéz.
He therefore that hath sworn by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all that is upon it;
21 Eta norc-ere iuratzen baitu templeaz, iuratzen du harçaz, eta hartan habitatzen denaz.
And, he that hath sworn by the Temple, sweareth by it, and by him who dwelleth therein;
22 Eta iuratzen duenac ceruäz, iuratzen du Iaincoaren thronoaz eta haren gainean iarriric dagoenaz.
And, he that hath sworn by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him who sitteth thereupon.
23 Maledictione çuen gainean Scriba eta Phariseu hypocritác: ecen detchematzen dituçue menta eta anisa eta cuminoa, eta vtziten dituçue Legueco gauça piçuagoac, hala nola, iugemendua eta misericordia eta leyaltatea: gauça hauc eguin behar ciraden, eta hec ez vtzi.
Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye tithe the mint and the anise and the cummin, —and have dismissed the weightier matters of the law—the justice, the mercy, and the faith; whereas, these, it was binding, to do, and, those, not to, dismiss.
24 Guidari itsuác, eltzoa irazten duçue: eta camelua iresten.
Blind guides! Straining out the gnat, but, the camel, swallowing.
25 Maledictione çuen gainean Scriba eta Phariseu hypocritác: ecen coparen eta plataren campoco aldea chahutzen duçue: baina barnetic dirade arrauberiaz, eta eccessez betheac.
Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, —while, within, they are full of plunder and intemperance.
26 Phariseu itsuá, chahu eçac lehenic coparen eta plataren barnecoa, hayén campocoa-ere chahu dadinçát.
Blind Pharisee! cleanse, first, the inside, of the cup [and of the dish], that, the outside thereof, may become, clean.
27 Maledictione çuen gainean Scriba eta Phariseu hypocritác: ecen sepulchre churituac irudi duçue, hec campotic eder eracusten dirade: baina barnetic hilén heçurrez eta satsutassun oroz betheac dirade.
Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye make yourselves like sepulchres whitewashed, which, outside, indeed, appear, beautiful, but, within, are full, of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness, —
28 Halaber çuec-ere campotic guiçoney eracusten çarete iusto, baina barnean hypocrisiaz eta iniquitatez betheac çarete.
Thus, ye also, outside, indeed, appear to men, righteous, but, within, are full, of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
29 Maledictione çuen gainean Scriba eta Phariseu hypocritác: ecen Prophetén sepulchreac edificatzen dituçue, eta iustoén monumentac ornatzen.
Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the monuments of the righteous,
30 Eta dioçue, Baldin gure aitén egunetan içan baguina, ezquinén hayén lagun içanen Prophetén odolean.
and say—If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been their partners in the blood of the prophets:
31 Halatan testificatzen duçue ceurón buruén contra, ecen Prophetác hil dituztenén seme çaretela.
So that ye bear witness against yourselves, that ye are, sons, of them who murdered the prophets.
32 Çuec-ere betha eçaçue çuen aitén neurria.
And, ye, fill ye up the measure of your fathers!
Serpents! broods of vipers! how should ye flee from the judgment of gehenna? (Geenna g1067)
34 Halacotz huná, nic igorten ditut çuetara Prophetác eta Çuhurrac eta Scribác eta hetaric batzu hilen dituçue eta crucificaturen: eta hetaric batzu açotaturen dituçue çuen synagoguetan, eta persecutaturen hiritic hirira:
For this cause, lo! I, send unto you, prophets and wise men and scribes, —some from among them, ye will slay and crucify, And some from among them ye will—scourge in your synagogues, and pursue from city to city:
35 Dathorrençát çuén gainera lurraren gainean issuri içan den odol iusto guçia, Abel iustoaren odoletic, Zacharia Barachiaren semearen odoleranocoa, cein hil vkan baituçue templearen eta aldarearen artean.
That there may come upon you—all righteous blood poured out upon the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous, unto the blood of Zachariah, son of Barachiah, whom ye murdered between the Temple and the altar.
36 Eguiaz diotsuet, ethorrico dirade gauça hauc guciac natione hunen gainera.
Verily, I say unto you—All these things, will have come, upon this generation.
37 Ierusalem, Ierusalem, Prophetác hiltzen eta hiregana igorriac lapidatzen dituaná, cembatetan bildu nahi vkan ditut hire haourrac, oilloac bere chitoac hegalen azpira biltzen dituen beçala, eta ezpaituc nahi vkan?
Jerusalem! Jerusalem! that slayeth the prophets, and stoneth them that have been sent unto her, —how often, would I have gathered thy children, like as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, —and ye would not!
38 Horrá, guelditzen çaiçue çuen etchea desert.
Lo! your house is left to you;
39 Ecen badiotsuet, eznauçue ikussiren hemendic harát derraqueçueno, Benedicatu dela Iaunaren icenean ethorten dena.
For I say unto you—in no wise, may ye see me, henceforth, until ye say, Blessed, is he that cometh, in the name of the Lord!
