Mateo 5
1 Iesus bada ikussiric gendetzeac, igan cedin mendi batetara: eta iarri cenean hurbildu içan çaizcan bere discipuluac.
When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a hillside. He sat down [in order to teach] his disciples. They came near to him [to listen to him].
2 Eta bere ahoa irequiric iracasten cituen, erraiten çuela,
Then he began to teach them by saying,
3 Dohatsu dirade spirituz paubreac: ceren hayén baita ceruètaco resumá.
[God] is pleased with people who recognize that they have a spiritual [need]; he will allow them to be the people whose lives he rules over.
4 Dohatsu dirade nigarrez daudenac: ceren hec consolaturen baitirade.
[God] is pleased with people who mourn [because they have sinned; ] they will be encouraged {he will encourage them.}
5 Dohatsu dirade emeac: ceren hec lurra heretaturen baitute.
[God] is pleased with people who are meek; they will inherit the earth [that God will recreate].
6 Dohatsu dirade iustitiaz gosse eta egarri diradenac: ceren hec asseren baitirade.
[God] is pleased with people who sincerely [desire to live] righteously [just like they] desire to eat and drink [MET]; they will be enabled {he will enable them} to do all that he desires [MET].
7 Dohatsu dirade misericordiosoac: ceren hæy misericordia eguinen baitzaye.
[God] is pleased with people who act mercifully; he will act mercifully to them.
8 Dohatsu dirade bihotzez chahu diradenac: ceren hec Iaincoa ikussiren baituté.
[God] is pleased with people who think only about that which pleases him; [some day] they will [be where] God is and will see him.
9 Dohatsu dirade baquea procuratzen dutenac: ceren hec Iaincoaren haour deithuren baitirade.
[God] is pleased with people who help other people to live peacefully; they will be considered to be {he will consider that they are} his children [MET].
10 Dohatsu dirade iustitiagatic persecutatzen diradenac: ceren hayén baita ceruètaco resumá.
[God is pleased with] people to whom evil things are done {to whom [other people] do evil things} because they [conducted themselves] righteously; he will allow them to be where he rules over people.
11 Dohatsu içanen çarete nehorc iniuria erran drauqueçuenean, eta persecutatu çaituqueztenean, eta hitz gaichto gucia erran duqueitenean çuen contra, gueçurrez ene causaz.
[God is pleased with] you when [other] people insult you, when [other people] do evil things to you and when [other people] say falsely [that] you are evil because [you believe in] me.
12 Boz eta aleguera çaitezte, ceren çuen saria handi baita ceruètan: ecen hala persecutatu vkan dituzté çuen aitzineco Prophetác.
[When that happens], rejoice and be glad [DOU], because [God will give] you a great reward in heaven. [God will think highly of you], just like [he thought highly of] the prophets whom your [ancestors persecuted] long ago.
13 Çuec çarete lurreco gatza: eta baldin gatza gueçat badadi, cerçaz gacituren da? ezta guehiagoric deusgay camporat iraizteco eta guiçonéz ohondicatu içateco baicen.
“You are [able to influence] evil [people] [MTY] [and improve the way they live in order that they do not become more evil, just like] salt [is able to improve the flavor of food and to preserve it] [MET] [from spoiling]. Salt that no longer tastes salty cannot become salty again [RHQ]. As a result, that salt becomes useless. It is rejected by people, thrown on the ground, and walked on {People reject it, throw it on the ground and walk on it} [MET]. [Similarly, if the way you live no longer influences people to live in a godly manner, God will reject you].
14 Çuec çarete munduco arguia. Ecin estal daite ciuitate mendi gainean iarria.
You [enable] evil [people] [MTY] [to perceive God’s truth as] a light [enables people to perceive what is around them. Just like] everyone can see [LIT] [the lights of] a city on a hill [MET], [other people can see what you do].
15 Eta eztute iraichequiten candelá eta hura eçarten gaitzurupean, baina candelerean, eta argui eguiten draue etcheco guciey.
After people light a lamp, they never put it under a basket. Instead, [they put it] on a lampstand in their houses in order that it can shine on everyone there.
16 Hala argui begui çuen arguiac guiconén aitzinean, çuen obra onac ikus ditzatençat, eta glorifica deçaten çuen Aita ceruètan dena.
[Similarly], you need to do [what is right] [MET] in such a manner that other people can see the good deeds that you do, and as a result they will praise your Father [who is] in heaven.”
17 Eztuçuela vste ecen Leguearen edo Prophetén abolitzera ethorri naicela: eznaiz ethorri abolitzera, baina complitzera.
“I came to earth, not to annul the laws [that God gave Moses] or [what] the prophets [MTY] [wrote]. Instead, I [came] to cause to happen [what the authors of those books predicted would happen]. So do not think any longer that I have come [to earth] in order that I might annul [what they wrote].
18 Ecen eguiaz diotsuet, iragan daiteno ceruä eta lurra, iotabat edo punctu hutsbat ezta Leguetic iraganen, gauça guciac eguin diteno.
Keep this in mind: [Every] point of those laws, [including those points that seem] least important, and even the smallest details of the laws [MTY] will surely be in effect [HYP, LIT] until the heavens and the earth disappear and until all [that God told their authors to write] happens.
19 Norc-ere beraz hautsiren baitu manamendu chipién hautaric bat, eta iracatsiren baititu hunela guiçonac, chipién deithuren da hura ceruètaco resumán: baina norc-ere eguinen baititu eta iracatsiren, hura handi deithuren da ceruètaco resumán.
Since [all God’s laws are important], if anyone disobeys any of those commandments, [even if it would be] one of the least [important ones], and if that person teaches people [to disobey any of those commandments], it will be said {[God] will say} that that person is the least [important] of those in the place where [EUP] God rules. But those who obey [those commandments] and teach [other people to obey them, it will be said] {[God] will say} that they are very important among those that God rules.
20 Ecen erraiten drauçuet, baldin abundosago ezpada çuen iustitiá Scribena eta Phariseuena baino, çuec etzaretela sarthuren ceruètaco resumán.
Keep this in mind: [You assume that] the Pharisees and the men who teach our laws [faithfully obey] what God commands. But if you do not obey those laws better than they obey them, you will by no means enter the place where God rules.”
21 Ençun vkan duçue nola erraniçan içan çayen lehenagocoey, Eztuc hilen: eta norc-ere hilen baitu, hura iudicioz punitu içateco digne date.
“You have heard [your religious teachers say] that it was said {that [Moses] said} to your ancestors, ‘Do not murder [anyone.’ This implied that] if someone murders [another person], the judge will condemn that person [and] sentence him to be [executed] {[say that someone must execute him]}.
22 Baina nic erraiten drauçuet, ecen nor-ere asserretzen baitzayo bere anayeri causa gabe, iudicioz punitu içateco digne datela: eta norc-ere erranen baitrauca bere anayeri, Raká, hura conseilluz punitu içateco digne datela: eta norc-ere erranen baitrauca, Erhoá, suzco gehennaz punitu içateco digne datela. (Geenna g1067)
But what I say to you is this: [If you are] angry with someone, [God] will judge you. If you say to someone, ‘[You are worthless],’ the Jewish Council will judge you. If you [hate someone], and say to them 'You fool!' you. yourself, will be in danger of being thrown into the fires in hell. (Geenna g1067)
23 Beraz baldin eure oblationea eramaiten baduc aldarera, eta han orhoit bahadi ecen hire anayeac baduela cerbait hire contra,
So, when you take your gift [for God] to the altar, if you remember that you have offended someone,
24 Vtzi eçac han eure oblationea aldare aitzinean, eta habil: lehen appointadi eure anayerequin, eta orduan ethorriric presenta eçac eure oblationea.
leave your gift by the altar, and first go [to the person you have offended]. Tell that person that you are sorry for what you have done, and ask that person to forgive you. Then go back and offer your gift [to God].
25 Aicén adisquide eure partida contrastarequin fitetz, harequin bidean aiceno, ezemón eure partida contrastac iugeari, eta iugeac ezemón sargeantari, eta presoinean eçar ezadin.
[Also], when a fellow citizen [takes you to court in order to] accuse you, settle accounts with that person quickly while you are walking with that person [to court]. Do that [while there still is time to do so] in order that he will not take you to the judge, [because if] the judge [favors the person who is accusing you, he will declare that you are guilty and send you] to the prison guard, and the prison guard will put you in prison.
26 Eguiaz erraiten drauat, ezaiz ilkiren handic, renda diroano azquen pelata.
Keep this in mind: [If you go to prison], you will never get out [because you will never be able to] pay all that the judge says that you owe [MET]. [And remember also that] you [ought to settle accounts with God before you die, too].”
27 Ençun vkan duçue ecen lehenagocoéy erran içan çayela, Eztuc adulterioric iauquiren.
“You have heard [God’s] commandment, ‘Do not commit adultery.’
28 Baina nic erraiten drauçuet, Norc-ere beguiesten baitu emazteric, hura guthicia deçançat, hambatez adulteratu duqueela harequin bere bihotzean.
But what I say to you is this: If a man only looks at a woman desiring to have sex with her, [God considers that] his doing that [MET] is sin.
29 Bada baldin eure begui escuinac trebuca eraciten bahau, idoqui eçac hura, eta iraitzac eureganic: ecen hobe duc hiretaco, gal dadin hire membroetaric bat, eta eztadin hire gorputz gucia egotz gehennara. (Geenna g1067)
If because of what you see [MTY] you [are tempted to] sin, [stop looking at those things! Even if you have to] gouge out one of your eyes and throw it away [HYP] [to avoid sinning, do it!] It is good [that you not sin and] as a result [go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both of] your eyes. But it is not good [that you continue to have two eyes and sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell. (Geenna g1067)
30 Eta baldin eure escu escuinac trebuca eraciten bahau, trenca eçac hura, eta iraitzac eureganic: ecen hobe duc hiretaco, gal dadin hire membroetaric bat, eta eztadin hire gorputz gucia egotz gehennara. (Geenna g1067)
If you are [tempted to] use one of your hands to sin [MTY], [stop using your hand. Even if you have to] cut your hand off and throw it away [to avoid sinning, do it] [HYP]! It is good [that you do not sin and as a result you go to heaven, even though while you are still here on earth] you lack one [or both] of your [hands]. But it is not good [that you sin and, as a result, God] sends your whole body to hell.” (Geenna g1067)
31 Halaber erran içan da, Norc-ere vtziren baitu bere emaztea, bemó separationeco letrá:
“It is written {[Moses] wrote}, ‘If a man is divorcing his wife, he should write a document [on which he states that he is] divorcing her.’
32 Baina nic diotsuet, ecen norc-ere vtziren baitu bere emaztea, salbu paillardiçaren causaz, adulterio eguin eraciten draucala: eta nor-ere vtziarequin ezconduren baita, harc adulterio iauquiten duela.
But [now listen to what] I say to you: [A man] may [divorce his wife] only if she has committed adultery, [and not for any other reason]. If a man divorces his wife [for any other reason, and he has sex with another woman], he makes his wife become one against whom he has committed adultery, [because in God’s estimation she still is his wife]. Also, if a man marries a woman who is divorced {whose husband has divorced her}, [God considers] him [guilty of] committing adultery.”
33 Berriz ençun vkan duçue, ecen lehenagocoey erran içan çayela, Ezaiz desperiuraturen, baina rendaturen drautzac Iaunari eure iuramendu promettatuac.
“You have also heard [your religious teachers say] that it was written {that [Moses] wrote} to your ancestors, ‘Make sure that you do what you promised the Lord that you would do!’ [DOU]
34 Baina nic diotsuet ezteçaçuen iura batre, ez ceruäz, ecen Iaincoaren thronoa da.
But [now listen to what] I say to you: Never promise to do anything and then ask a superior being to affirm [that what you are saying will happen. For example, do] not [promise that you will give something and then ask spiritual beings in] heaven [MTY] [to affirm that you will do it], because heaven is where God [sits] on his throne [MTY] [to rule over people].
35 Ezeta Lurraz, ecen haren oinetaco alkia da: ezeta Ierusalemez, ecen regue handiaren ciuitatea da.
[Also, do] not [promise that you will give something and then ask spiritual beings] on earth [MTY] [to affirm that you will do it], because the earth is where God rests his feet [MET]. [Also, do] not [promise that you will do something and ask religious authorities] in Jerusalem [to affirm that you will do it], because Jerusalem is the city where [God], the great King [rules].
36 Halaber eure buruäz eztuc iuraturen, ecen bilobat churi ezpa beltz ecin daidic.
[Also, do not promise that you will do something and then say that] your head [should be cut off] {[someone should cut off] your head} [if you do not do it]. You are not [even] able to [change the color of the hair of your head by] making one [black] hair white or one [white] hair black.
37 Baina biz çuen hitza bay, bay: ez, ez: eta hauçaz goiticoa, gaichtotic da.
[If you talk about doing something], just say ‘Yes, I [will do it],’ or ‘No, I [will not do it].’ [If you say] anything more than that, it is from [Satan], the Evil One.”
38 Ençun vkan duçue, ecen erran içan dela, Beguia beguiagatic, eta hortza hortzagatic.
“You have heard [your religious teachers say] that [it is written] {[Moses wrote]}, ‘[Retaliate like this]: [If someone damages] one of your eyes, [someone should damage] one of that person’s eyes. [If someone damages] one of your teeth, [someone should damage] one of that person’s teeth.’
39 Baina nic erraiten drauçuet, Eztieçoçuela resisti gaizquiari: baina baldin norbeitec io baheça eure escuineco mathelán, itzul ieçóc bercea-ere.
But [now listen to what] I say to you: Do not take revenge for evil [deeds done] {[that other people do]} [to you]. Instead, if someone [insults you by] striking you on one cheek, turn your other cheek toward that person [in order that he can strike it also].
40 Eta hiri auci eguin nahi drauanari, eta eure iaccá edequi, vtzi ieçoc mantoa-ere.
If someone wants to sue you and take your (inner garment/shirt), give him your (outer garment/coat) also.
41 Eta norc-ere nahi vkanen baihau bortchatu lecoa baten eguitera, albeitindoa harequin biga.

Also, if someone asks you for [something], give [him what he is asking for]. If someone requests you to lend him [something], do not refuse [to lend it to him].”

Do that in order to imitate what [God], your Father [who is] in heaven, does. He desires that you [MET] do [like he does]. [He acts kindly to all people. For example, he causes] the sun to shine [equally] on wicked [people] and on good [people], and [he sends] rain [both] on righteous [people] and on unrighteous [people].

If you want [God] to bless only your friends, (you are not acting any better than other people!/are you acting any better than other people?) [RHQ] Even the non-Jews, [who you think sin very much] (OR, [you think are unacceptable to God]), want God to bless their friends [RHQ], [but God does not reward them for that].
48 Çareten bada çuec perfect, çuen Aita ceruètan dena perfect den beçala.
[You need to love those who do not love you], and in that way become perfect as [God] your Father, [who is] in heaven, is perfect.”
