Matthew 5
1 Seeing the multitudes, he went up onto the mountain. When he had sat down, his disciples came to him.
A hmuh neh hlangping taengah tlang la luei tih a ngol vaengah anih te a hnukbang rhoek loh a paan uh.
2 He opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
Te vaengah a ka a ong tih amih a thuituen.
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Mueihla khodaeng rhoek tah a yoethen uh, vaan ram te amih kah la om.
4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Aka nguek rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih te a hloep uh ni.
5 Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
Muelhtuet rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih long ni diklai a pang eh.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.
Duengnah te aka hal tih aka pong rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih tah hah uh ni.
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Hlang aka rhen rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih te a rhen uh ni.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
thinko aka caih rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih long ni Pathen te a hmuh eh.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.
Rhoepnah la aka om rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih ni Pathen kah ca rhoek la a khue uh eh.
10 Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Duengnah kongah a hnaemtaek rhoek tah a yoethen uh, vaan ram te amih kah ni.
11 “Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Kai kongah nangmih te thuithet tih, hnaemtaek tih laithaethui rhoek loh nangmih soah a thae la boeih n' thui uh vaengah na yoethenuh.
12 Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
“Omngaih uh lamtah hlampan uh. Vaan ah nangmih kah thapang muep om. Nangmih hlankah tonghma rhoek khaw a hnaemtaek uh rhoe.
13 “You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has lost its flavor, with what will it be salted? It is then good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men.
Nangmih tah diklai lungkaeh la na om uh. Tedae lungkaeh he a dap atah, ba nen lae a al sak eh? Phawn a voeih tih hlang loh a taelh pawt atah coeng voel pawh.
14 You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden.
Nangmih tah Diklai vangnah la na om uh. Tlang soah a thoong khopuei tah khuup thai tlaih pawh.
15 Neither do you light a lamp and put it under a measuring basket, but on a stand; and it shines to all who are in the house.
Hmaiim te a tok uh tih voh hmuiah a khueh uh moenih. Hmaitung soah ni a khueh tih im khuikah rhoek te boeih a tue.
16 Even so, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Nangmih kah vangnah khaw hlang hmaiah sae tangloeng saeh. Te daengah ni nangmih kah khoboe then te a hmuh uh vetih, vaan kah na pa te a thangpom uh eh.
17 “Don’t think that I came to destroy the law or the prophets. I didn’t come to destroy, but to fulfill.
Olkhueng neh tonghma rhoek ol he phae hamla ka lo tila poek uh boeh, phae ham pawt tih soep sak ham ni ka lo.
18 For most certainly, I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not even one smallest letter or one tiny pen stroke shall in any way pass away from the law, until all things are accomplished.
Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, diklai neh vaan a khum hlan khuiah, olkhueng te boeih a soep hlan khuiah, catham khat neh a dek khat pataeng hmata mahpawh.
19 Therefore, whoever shall break one of these least commandments and teach others to do so, shall be called least in the Kingdom of Heaven; but whoever shall do and teach them shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Te dongah he rhoek kah olpaek rhoek a diknoi khat ca khaw a phae tangkhuet tih hlang aka thuituen te tah vaan ram ah a dikhnawn la a khue ni. Tedae olpaek bangla a saii tih aka thuituen te tah vaan ram ah tanglue la a khue ni.
20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, there is no way you will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
Nangmih taengah kan thui, cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek kah a voel ah duengnah loh nangmih te m'pueh pawt atah, vaan ram ah na kun kolla na om uh mahpawt nim.
21 “You have heard that it was said to the ancient ones, ‘You shall not murder;’ and ‘Whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.’
Khosuen kah a thui te na yaak uh coeng. Hlang ngawn boeh, aka ngawn te tah laitloeknah om kuekluek saeh.
22 But I tell you that everyone who is angry with his brother without a cause will be in danger of the judgment. Whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ will be in danger of the council. Whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, a manuca taengah kosi aka hong boeih tah laitloeknah om kuekluek saeh, a manuca te hlangyoe aka ti nah te khaw khoboei taengla pha kuekluek saeh. Hlang ang la aka thui te khaw hell hmai la pha kuekluek saeh. (Geenna g1067)
23 “If therefore you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you,
Te dongah hmueihtuk la na kutdoe na khuen vaengah, na manuca loh nang soah khat khat ngaihlih a om te na poek atah,
24 leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
Na kutdoe te hmueihtuk hmai ah pak hlah. Na manuca taengah cet lamhma lamtah moeithen dae, te phoeiah cet lamtah na kutdoe te pae.
25 Agree with your adversary quickly while you are with him on the way; lest perhaps the prosecutor deliver you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be cast into prison.
Longpueng ah amah neh na om li vaengah a loe la na kocaelh te ko a hlawt ham saii laeh. Namah te kocaelh loh laitloekkung taengla n'thak ve. Te vaengah laitloekkung loh tueihyoeih taengla n'thak vetih thongim la n'hla ve.
26 Most certainly I tell you, you shall by no means get out of there until you have paid the last penny.
Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, a hnukkhueng pekhat hil na thuung hlan atah te lamkah na loeih mahpawh.
27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery;’
Samphaih boeh a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
28 but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Tedae nangmih taengah ka thui. Huta te a hue neh aka dan boeih tah, a thinko ah a samphaih puei oepsoeh coeng.
29 If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Na bantang mik loh nang n' khah atah te te koeih lamtah namah lamloh voei. Na pumrho dongkah pakhat a poci akhaw na pum boeih hell la a voeih pawt te nang hamla rhoei bet. (Geenna g1067)
30 If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Na bantang kut loh nang n' khah atah te te tloek lamtah namah lamloh voei. Na pumrho dongkah pakhat a poci te nang hamla then ngai. Te daengah ni na pum boeih tah hell la a caeh pawt eh. (Geenna g1067)
31 “It was also said, ‘Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,’
“A yuu aka hla loh yuhlaknah te a yuu taengah pae saeh,” a ti.
32 but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.
Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui coeng. Cukhalnah olka voel ah a yuu aka hla boeih loh a yuu te samphaih sak ham a saii. Te dongah a hlak tangtae aka yunah te khaw samphaih van.
33 “Again you have heard that it was said to the ancient ones, ‘You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,’
Khosuen kah a thui te koep na yaak coeng, basa boeh saw. Tedae na olhlo te boeipa taengah na thuung ni.
34 but I tell you, don’t swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;
Tedae nangmih taengah toemngam loengloeng boeh ka ti. Vaan nen khaw toemngam boeh. Te tah Pathen kah ngolkhoel ni.
35 nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
Diklai nen khaw toemngam boeh. Te tah amah kah kho kah khotloeng ni. Jerusalem nen khaw toemngam boeh, te tah manghai boei kah khopuei ni.
36 Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can’t make one hair white or black.
Na lu nen khaw toemngam boeh. Sam pakhat pataeng a bok neh a muem la na saii thai moenih.
37 But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.
Te dongah nangmih ol te ue atah ue, pawh atah pawh la om saeh. Tedae he rhoek kah a pueh tah a thae hno lamkah aka thoeng hno ni.
38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’
“Mik ham te mik, no ham te no,” a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
39 But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
Nangmih taengah kan thui, a thae te kamkaih boeh, tedae bantang kah na kamrhuh aka bael te pakhat ben khaw a taengla hooi pah.
40 If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also.
Nang toe ham neh na angki loh aka ngaih te himbai khaw hlah pah thil.
41 Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.
Nang meng khat aka tanolh te, amah te meng nit khaw caeh puei.
42 Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.
Nang taengah aka bih te pae. Nang taengah puu hamla aka ngaih te khaw bal sak boeh.
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
“Na imben te lungnah, na rhal te thiinah,” a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
44 But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,
Tedae kai loh nangmih taengah kan thui, na rhal rhoek te lungnah lamtah, nangmih aka hnaemtaek rhoek ham thangthui pauh.
45 that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.
Te daengah ni vaan ah na Pa kah a ca rhoek la na om uh eh. Amah kah khomik te a thae neh a then boeih soah a thoeng sak tih, aka dueng khaw, halang khaw rhotui neh a sul thil.
46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Don’t even the tax collectors do the same?
Nangmih aka lungnah te na lungnah uh atah balae thapang na dang eh? Mangmucoi rhoek long pataeng te te a saii uh van moenih a?
47 If you only greet your friends, what more do you do than others? Don’t even the tax collectors do the same?
Na manuca bueng na toidal uh koinih balae a pueh na saii uh tloe, namtom rhoek long khaw te te a saii uh moenih a?
48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
Te dongah vaan kah na Pa loh lungcuei la a om bangla nangmih khaw lungcuei la om uh.
