Matthew 5
1 Then, seeing the crowds, he ascended the mountain, and when he had sat down, his disciples drew near to him,
Kui Jeesus nägi rahvahulki enda järel käimas, läks ta üles mäele. Seal istus ta koos oma jüngritega maha.
2 and opening his mouth, he taught them, saying:
Ta hakkas neid õpetama ning ütles:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
„Õnnistatud on need, kes tunnevad ära, et nad on vaimulikult vaesed, sest nende päralt on taevariik.
4 Blessed are the meek, for they shall possess the earth.
Õnnistatud on need, kes kurvastavad, sest neid lohutatakse.
5 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be consoled.
Õnnistatud on need, kes on heatahtlikud, sest nende päralt on kogu maailm.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they shall be satisfied.
Õnnistatud on need, kelle suurim soov on teha seda, mis on õige, sest nende soov täidetakse.
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Õnnistatud on need, kes on halastavad, sest nende suhtes ilmutatakse halastust.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
Õnnistatud on need, kel on puhas süda, sest nemad näevad Jumalat.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Õnnistatud on need, kes näevad vaeva rahu loomisel, sest neid hüütakse Jumala lasteks.
10 Blessed are those who endure persecution for the sake of justice, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Õnnistatud on need, keda kiusatakse taga sellepärast, mis on õige, sest nende päralt on taevariik.
11 Blessed are you when they have slandered you, and persecuted you, and spoken all kinds of evil against you, falsely, for my sake:
Õnnistatud olete teie, kui inimesed teid solvavad ja taga kiusavad ning süüdistavad teid minu pärast igasugustes halbades asjades.
12 be glad and exult, for your reward in heaven is plentiful. For so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Olge rõõmsad, olge tõesti rõõmsad, sest te saate suure tasu taevas, sest samamoodi kiusasid nad taga prohveteid, kes olid enne teid.
13 You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its saltiness, with what will it be salted? It is no longer useful at all, except to be cast out and trampled under by men.
Teie olete maa sool, aga kui sool muutub maitsetuks, kuidas saab selle jälle soolaseks teha? Sellest pole kasu millegi jaoks, nii et see visatakse välja jalgade alla tallamiseks.
14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden.
Teie olete maailma valgus. Mäe otsa ehitatud linn ei saa varjule jääda.
15 And they do not light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, so that it may shine to all who are in the house.
Keegi ei süüta lampi ega pane seda ämbri alla. Ei, see asetatakse lambijalale ning see valgustab kõiki majas.
16 So then, let your light shine in the sight of men, so that they may see your good works, and may glorify your Father, who is in heaven.
Samamoodi peate ka teie laskma oma valgusel paista kõigi ees, et nad näeksid häid asju, mida te teete, ning ülistaksid teie taevast Isa.
17 Do not think that I have come to loosen the law or the prophets. I have not come to loosen, but to fulfill.
Ärge arvake, et ma tulin seadust või prohvetite kirju tühistama. Ma ei tulnud neid tühistama, vaid täitma.
18 Amen I say to you, certainly, until heaven and earth pass away, not one iota, not one dot shall pass away from the law, until all is done.
Ma kinnitan teile, kuni taevas ja maa püsivad, ei kao seadusest ainsat tähte ega märki enne, kui kõik on täitunud.
19 Therefore, whoever will have loosened one of the least of these commandments, and have taught men so, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever will have done and taught these, such a one shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Seega, kes iganes põlgab kas või kõige tähtsusetumat käsku ja õpetab nii inimesi, seda nimetatakse taevariigis kõige tähtsusetumaks; aga kes iganes järgib ja õpetab käske, seda nimetatakse taevariigis suureks.
20 For I say to you, that unless your justice has surpassed that of the scribes and the Pharisees you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Ma ütlen teile, kui teie moraalne õigsusei ole rohkem kui vaimulike õpetajate ja variseride oma, ei saa te kunagi taevariiki.
21 You have heard that it was said to the ancients: ‘You shall not murder; whoever will have murdered shall be liable to judgment.’
Te olete kuulnud, et seadus ütles inimestele muiste: „Sa ei tohi tappa, ja igaüks, kes tapab, mõistetakse süüdi.“.
22 But I say to you, that anyone who becomes angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment. But whoever will have called his brother, ‘Idiot,’ shall be liable to the council. Then, whoever will have called him, ‘Worthless,’ shall be liable to the fires of Hell. (Geenna g1067)
Aga mina ütlen teile, igaüks, kes on oma venna peale vihane, mõistetakse süüdi. Kes iganes nimetab oma venda idioodiks, peab vastust andma nõukogu ees, aga kes iganes teisi sõimab, läheb kohtutulle. (Geenna g1067)
23 Therefore, if you offer your gift at the altar, and there you remember that your brother has something against you,
Kui sa oled altari juures ohvrit toomas ja sulle meenub, et su vennal on midagi sinu vastu,
24 leave your gift there, before the altar, and go first to be reconciled to your brother, and then you may approach and offer your gift.
siis jäta oma ohver altarile ja tee esmalt temaga rahu ning alles pärast tule tagasi ja too oma ohver.
25 Be reconciled with your adversary quickly, while you are still on the way with him, lest perhaps the adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you will be thrown in prison.
Kui sa oled oma vastasega teel kohtusse, siis püüa asjad kiiresti lahendada. Muidu võib su vastane anda sind kohtuniku kätte ja kohtunik annab sind kohtu ametniku kätte ning sind heidetakse vanglasse.
26 Amen I say to you, that you shall not go forth from there, until you have repaid the last quarter.
Ma räägin teile tõtt: sa ei pääse sealt välja enne, kui oled ära maksnud oma viimasegi penni.
27 You have heard that it was said to the ancients: ‘You shall not commit adultery.’
Te olete kuulnud, et seadus ütles: „Ära riku abielu.“
28 But I say to you, that anyone who will have looked at a woman, so as to lust after her, has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Aga mina ütlen teile, et igaüks, kes vaatab naist himuralt, on temaga mõttes juba abielu rikkunud.
29 And if your right eye causes you to sin, root it out and cast it away from you. For it is better for you that one of your members perish, than that your whole body be cast into Hell. (Geenna g1067)
Kui su parem silm juhib sind patustama, siis kisu see välja ja viska minema, sest parem on kaotada üks osa oma kehast, kui et kogu su keha visatakse kohtutulle. (Geenna g1067)
30 And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it away from you. For it is better for you that one of your members perish, than that your whole body go into Hell. (Geenna g1067)
Kui su parem käsi juhib sind patustama, siis lõika see maha ja viska minema, sest sul on parem kaotada üks jäsemetest, kui et kogu su keha visatakse kohtutulle. (Geenna g1067)
31 And it has been said: ‘Whoever would dismiss his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce.’
Seadus ütles ka: „Kui mees lahutab oma naisest, peab ta andma naisele lahutustunnistuse.“
32 But I say to you, that anyone who will have dismissed his wife, except in the case of fornication, causes her to commit adultery; and whoever will have married her who has been dismissed commits adultery.
Aga mina ütlen teile, et iga mees, kes lahutab oma naisest muidu kui seksuaalse ebamoraalsuse tõttu, sunnib naist abielu rikkuma, ja kes iganes abiellub lahutatud naisega, rikub abielu.
33 Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients: ‘You shall not swear falsely. For you shall repay your oaths to the Lord.’
Ja veel, te olete kuulnud, et seadus ütles inimestele ammu: „Sa ei tohi valet vanduda. Hoolitse selle eest, et pead oma vandeid, mille Issandale annad.“
34 But I say to you, do not swear an oath at all, neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God,
Aga mina ütlen teile: ärge üldse vanduge. Ärge vanduge taeva juures, sest see on Jumala troon.
35 nor by earth, for it is his footstool, nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great king.
Ärge vanduge maa juurest, sest see on Jumala jalajäri. Ärge vanduge Jeruusalemma juures, sest see on suure Kuninga linn.
36 Neither shall you swear an oath by your own head, because you are not able to cause one hair to become white or black.
Ärge vanduge isegi oma pea juures, sest te ei suuda üht juuksekarvagi valgeks või mustaks teha.
37 But let your word ‘Yes’ mean ‘Yes,’ and ‘No’ mean ‘No.’ For anything beyond that is of evil.
Öelge lihtsalt jah või ei – mis on üle selle, on kurjast.
38 You have heard that it was said: ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’
Te olete kuulnud, et seadus ütleb: „Silm silma vastu ja hammas hamba vastu.“
39 But I say to you, do not resist one who is evil, but if anyone will have struck you on your right cheek, offer to him the other also.
Aga mina ütlen teile, ära hakka vastu sellele, kes on kuri. Kui keegi lööb sind parema põse pihta, pööra talle ka teine põsk.
40 And anyone who wishes to contend with you in judgment, and to take away your tunic, release to him your cloak also.
Kui keegi tahab sind kohtusse kaevata ja võtab su särgi, anna talle ka oma kuub.
41 And whoever will have compelled you for one thousand steps, go with him even for two thousand steps.
Kui keegi nõuab, et kõnniksid ühe miili, mine temaga kaks miili.
42 Whoever asks of you, give to him. And if anyone would borrow from you, do not turn away from him.
Anna sellele, kes sinult palub, ja ära pöördu ära sellest, kes tahab sinult laenata.
43 You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor, and you shall have hatred for your enemy.’
Te olete kuulnud, et seadus ütleb: „Armasta oma ligimest ja vihka oma vaenlast.“
44 But I say to you: Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. And pray for those who persecute and slander you.
Aga mina ütlen teile, armastage oma vaenlasi ja palvetage nende eest, kes teid taga kiusavad,
45 In this way, you shall be sons of your Father, who is in heaven. He causes his sun to rise upon the good and the bad, and he causes it to rain upon the just and the unjust.
et te võiksite saada oma taevase Isa lasteks. Sest tema päike paistab nii heade kui halbade peale ning ta laseb vihma sadada nii nende peale, kes toimivad õigesti, kui ka nende peale, kes toimivad valesti.
46 For if you love those who love you, what reward will you have? Do not even tax collectors behave this way?
Sest kui sa armastad ainult neid, kes sind armastavad, mis tasu sa saad? Kas mitte isegi maksukogujad ei tee seda?
47 And if you greet only your brothers, what more have you done? Do not even the pagans behave this way?
Kui sa kõneled lahkelt ainult oma pereliikmetega, mida enamat sa siis teed kui keegi teine? Isegi paganad teevad seda!
48 Therefore, be perfect, even as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
Kasva suureks ja saa täielikult usaldusväärseks, just nagu teie taevane Isa on usaldusväärne.“
