Matthew 5
1 Seeing the multitudes, he went up onto the mountain. When he had sat down, his disciples came to him.
Jesus el liye un mwet puspis ac el fahsryak nu fineol uh, ac ke el muta, mwet tumal lutlut elos fahsr nu yorol,
2 He opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
ac el mutawauk in luti nu sin mwet uh ac fahk:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
“Insewowo elos su sukasrup in ngun; Tuh Tokosrai lun kusrao ma lalos!
4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
“Insewowo elos su asor, Tuh elos fah pwarak!
5 Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
“Insewowo elos su fakpap, Tuh faclu fah ma lalos.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.
“Insewowo elos su masrinsral ac malukin ma suwoswos, Tuh elos fah kihp!
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
“Insewowo elos su pakomuta; Tuh elos fah eis pakomuta!
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
“Insewowo elos su nasnas insialos; Tuh elos fah liye God!
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.
“Insewowo elos su akiwe mwet uh; Tuh pangpang elos tulik nutin God!
10 Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
“Insewowo elos su kalyeiyuk ke ma suwoswos; Tuh Tokosrai lun kusrao ma lalos.
11 “Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
“Insewowo kowos ke mwet akangonye kowos, ac kalyei kowos, ac fahk kain koluk nukewa lain kowos in kikiap keik.
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.
Kowos enganak ac arulana insewowo, tuh yohk ma lacne lowos inkusrao; tuh ouinge elos kalyei mwet palu su muta meet liki kowos.
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.
“Kowos sohl lun faclu. Tuh fin wanginla eman sohl uh, wangin ma ku in sifil folokunang eman sohl. Ouinge wanginla sripa, ac fal in sisila in longyuki ye nien mwet uh.
14 You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden.
“Kowos kalem nu sin faclu nufon. Sie siti su musaiyukla fin eol uh, tia ku in wikla.
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.
Wangin mwet akosak sie lam ac filiya ye sie ahlu, a el ac filiya fin sukan lam uh, yen ma kalem kac ac tolak in lohm uh nufon.
16 Even so, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Ouinge, kowos sang kalem lowos in tolak ye mutun mwet uh, tuh elos in ku in liye orekma wo lowos, ac kaksakin Papa tomowos su inkusrao.
17 “Don’t think that I came to destroy the law or the prophets. I didn’t come to destroy, but to fulfill.
“Nimet nunku mu nga tuku in kunausla Ma Sap lal Moses ac mwe luti lun mwet palu uh. Nga tia tuku in kunausla, a in akpwayei mwe luti lalos.
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.
Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, lah ke lusenna pacl ma kusrao ac faclu ac oan uh, sie leta ku akul srisrik ke Ma Sap uh koflana wanginla, nwe ke akpwayeyuk ma nukewa.
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.
Ke ma inge, kutena mwet su tia akos kutena sin ma sap uh, finne ma sap srisrik se, ac luti nu sin mwet saya in oru oapana, el ac fah srik liki nukewa in Tokosrai lun kusrao. Ac kutena mwet su akos ma sap ac luti nu sin mwet saya in oru oapana, el pa ac yohk in Tokosrai lun kusrao.
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.
Nga fahk nu suwos lah moul in oaru lowos in oru ma lungse lun God, fin tia wo liki moul lun mwet luti ke Ma Sap ac mwet Pharisee, kowos fah tia ku in ilyak nu in Tokosrai lun kusrao.
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.’
“Kowos lohng lah fwack nu sin mwet in pacl meet ah mu, ‘Nik kom akmas; kutena mwet su akmas ac fah utukyak el nu ke nununku.’
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)
Tuh inge nga fahk nu suwos: Kutena mwet su kasrkusrak sin mwet lel, ac fah utukyak el nu ke nununku; el su fahk nu sin mwet wial, ‘Wangin sripom!’ ac fah utukyak nu ye mutun Un Mwet Pwapa Fulat; ac kutena mwet su fahk nu sin mwet wial, ‘Kom lalfon!’ fal elan fosrgna ke e in hell. (Geenna g1067)
23 “If therefore you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you,
Ke ma inge kom fin akola in oru mwe kisa lom nu sin God fin loang in kisa uh, ac kom esamak ingo lah oasr ma sufal lom nu sin mwet lim,
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.
filiya mwe kisa lom an sisken loang an, ac folokla akwoyela inmasrlomtal meet, na kom fah foloko ac oru mwe kisa lom nu sin God.
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.
“Fin oasr mwet akola in us kom nu ke nununku, kom in aksaye akwoyela inmasrlomtal meet liki komtal sun acn in nununku. Kom fin tia, na el ac ku in eiskomyang nu ye mutun mwet nununku, su ac fah eiskomyang nu sin mwet roso, ac elos fah siskomyang nu in presin.
26 Most certainly I tell you, you shall by no means get out of there until you have paid the last penny.
Pwayena nga fahk nu sum, kom ac fah muta we nwe ke na kom akfalyela ma nukewa pakpuki kom in moli uh.
27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery;’
“Kowos lohng tuh fwack tari, ‘Nik kom kosro.’
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.
A inge nga fahk nu suwos: Kutena mwet su ngetang nu sin sie mutan ac oasr nunak in kena lal nu sel, el orek kosro nu sel tari in nunak lun insial.
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)
Ke ma inge, atronmotom layot fin akkolukye kom, tipalla ac sisla! Ac wo nu sum in tuhlac sie ip ke monum, liki na monum nufon in sisila nu in hell. (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)
Lac poum layot fin akkolukye kom, pakela ac sisla! Ac wo nu sum in wanginla la poum, liki na monum nufon in som nu in hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 “It was also said, ‘Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,’
“Oasr pac fahkya meet, ‘Kutena mwet su sisla mutan kial, enenu in orala sie pwepu in fahsrelik ac sang nu sin mutan sac.’
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.
Tusruktu, inge nga fahk nu suwos: Sie mukul fin sisla mutan kial ke kutena sripa sayen ke kosro, na oasr mwatan mukul sac ke el oru mutan sac in orek kosro el fin sifilpa marut nu sin siena mukul. Ac mukul se su marut nu sel el oayapa orek kosro.
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,’
“Kowos lohng tari ma fwack nu sin mwet uh in pacl meet, ‘Nik kom kunausla wulela lom, a kom in akfalye ma kom wulela kac nu sin Leum God.’
34 but I tell you, don’t swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;
A inge nga fahk nu suwos: Nik kom fulahk ke kutena ma ke kom orala wulela lom nu sin God. Tia ke kusrao, tuh nien muta lun God;
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.
ac tia ke faclu, tuh faclu ma loangeyen nial; ac tia pac ke acn Jerusalem, tuh acn we siti lun Tokosra fulat.
36 Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can’t make one hair white or black.
Nimet kom fulahk pac ke insifom, tuh kom tia ku in orala soko aunsuf in fasrfasr ku sroalsroal.
37 But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.
Fahk na ‘Aok’ ku ‘Mo’ — kutena ma saya ma kom ac fahk, ma tuku sin el su Koluklana.
38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’
“Kowos lohng tari oakwuk meet ah: ‘Atronmuta molin atronmuta, ac wihs molin wihs.’
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.
Tusruktu inge nga fahk nu suwos: Nimet foloksak nu sin kutena mwet su oru ma koluk lain kom. Mwet se fin puokya la oalum layot, sang pac elan puokya layen lese an.
40 If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also.
Ac mwet se fin uskomyak nu in nununku in eisla nuknukfon lom an, sang pac nu sel coat lom an.
41 Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.
Ac sie mwet fin sap kom in us pak lal uh ke mael se, kom welul us ke mael luo.
42 Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.
Mwet se fin siyuk sum ke kutena ma, kom sang nu sel; mwet se fin ngisre in orekmakin kutena ma lom ac sifil folokonma, kom sang.
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
“Kowos lohng tuh fwack tari, ‘Lungse mwet tulan lom, ac srunga mwet lokoalok lom.’
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,
A inge nga fahk nu suwos: Lungse mwet lokoalok lowos ac pre kaclos su kalyei kowos,
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.
tuh kowos fah ku in pangpang tulik nutin Papa tomowos su inkusrao. Tuh El oru kalmen faht lal uh in sreya mwet koluk ac mwet wo oana sie, ac El sang pac af nu fin mwet suwohs ac mwet sesuwos.
46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Don’t even the tax collectors do the same?
Efu ku God Elan sot mwe moul nu suwos fin kowos lungse na mwet ma lungse kowos? Finne mwet ma eisani tax uh elos oru pac ouingan!
47 If you only greet your friends, what more do you do than others? Don’t even the tax collectors do the same?
Ac kowos fin paing mwet kawuk lowos mukena, kowos tia sie liki mwet ngia, mweyen finne mwet pegan uh, elos oru pac ouingan!
48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
Kowos enenu in suwosna, oana ke Papa tomowos inkusrao El suwosna.
