< Matthew 6 >

1 “Be careful that you don’t do your charitable giving before men, to be seen by them, or else you have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
Tandremo mba tsy hanao ny asan’ ny fahamarinanareo eo imason’ ny olona hahitany izany; Fa raha tsy izany, dia tsy manana valim-pitia amin’ ny Rainareo Izay any an-danitra ianareo.
2 Therefore, when you do merciful deeds, don’t sound a trumpet before yourself, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get glory from men. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward.
Koa amin’ izany, raha manao fiantrana ianao, aza mba mitsoka trompetra eo aloanao tahaka ny fanaon’ ny mpihatsaravelatsihy eo amin’ ny synagoga sy eny an-dalambe mba hankalazan’ ny olona azy. Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa fa efa azony ny valim-pitiany.
3 But when you do merciful deeds, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand does,
Fa ianao kosa, raha manao fiantrana, dia aoka tsy ho fantatry ny tananao ankavia izay ataon’ ny tananao ankavanana,
4 so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
mba hatao ao amin’ ny mangingina ny fiantranao; ary ny Rainao, Izay mahita ao amin’ ny mangingina, no hamaly anao.
5 “When you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Most certainly, I tell you, they have received their reward.
Ary raha mivavaka ianareo, aza mba ho tahaka ny mpihatsaravelatsihy; Fa izy tia ny mivavaka mitsangana eo amin’ ny synagoga sy eo an-joron-dalana hahitan’ ny olona azy. Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa fa efa azony ny valim-pitiany.
6 But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
Fa ianao kosa, raha mivavaka, dia midìra ao amin’ ny efi-tranonao, ka rehefa voarindrinao ny varavaranao, dia mivavaha amin’ ny Rainao, Izay ao amin’ ny mangingina; ary ny Rainao, Izay mahita ao amin’ ny mangingina no hamaly anao.
7 In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.
Ary raha mivavaka ianareo, dia aza mba manao teny maro foana tahaka ny jentilisa; Fa ataony ho ny hamaroan’ ny teniny no hihainoana azy.
8 Therefore don’t be like them, for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him.
Koa aza manahaka azy ianareo; fa fantatry ny Rainareo izay tokony ho anareo, raha tsy mbola mangataka aminy aza ianareo.
9 Pray like this: “‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.
Koa amin’ izany mivavaha toy izao ianareo: Rainay Izay any an-danitra, hohamasinina anie ny anaranao.
10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Ho tonga anie ny fanjakanao. Hatao anie ny sitraponao etỳ an-tany tahaka ny any an-danitra.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
Omeo anay anio izay hanina sahaza ho anay.
12 Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
Ary mamelà ny helokay tahaka ny namelanay izay meloka taminay.
13 Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.’
Ary aza mitondra anay ho amin’ ny fakam-panahy, fa manafaha anay amin’ ny ratsy.
14 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Fa raha mamela ny fahadisoan’ ny olona ianareo, dia mba hamela ny anareo kosa ny Rainareo Izay any an-danitra.
15 But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Fa raha tsy mamela ny fahadisoan’ ny olona ianareo, dia tsy hamela ny fahadisoanareo ny Rainareo.
16 “Moreover when you fast, don’t be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward.
Ary raha mifady hanina ianareo, aza mety ho tahaka ny mpihatsaravelatsihy, izay malahelo tarehy; fa mampisotisoty ny tavany izy mba ho hitan’ ny olona fa mifady. Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa fa efa azony ny valim-pitiany.
17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,
Fa ianao kosa, raha mifady hanina, dia hosory ny lohanao, ary sasao ny tavanao,
18 so that you are not seen by men to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.
mba tsy ho hitan’ ny olona fa mifady, fa ho hitan’ ny Rainao, Izay ao amin’ ny mangingina; ary ny Rainao, Izay mahita ao amin’ ny mangingina, no hamaly anao.
19 “Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal;
Aza mihary harena ho anareo eto an-tany, izay misy kalalao sy harafesina manimba, sady misy mpangalatra manami-trano sy mangalatra.
20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal;
Fa miharia harena ho anareo any an-danitra, izay tsy misy kalalao na harafesina manimba, sady tsy misy mpangalatra manamitrano na mangalatra.
21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Fa izay itoeran’ ny harenao, dia ho any koa ny fonao.
22 “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light.
Ny maso no jiron’ ny tena; koa amin’ izany, raha tsara ny masonao, dia hazava avokoa ny tenanao rehetra.
23 But if your eye is evil, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!
Fa raha ratsy ny masonao, dia ho maizina avokoa ny tenanao rehetra; koa raha maizina ny fahazavana ao anatinao, manao ahoana ny halehiben’ izany fahamaizinana izany!
24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t serve both God and Mammon.
Tsy misy olona mahay manompo tompo roa; fa ny anankiray ho halany, ary ny anankiray ho tiany; na ny anankiray hombany, ary ny anankiray hohamavoiny. Tsy mahay manompo an’ Andriamanitra sy Mamôna ianareo.
25 Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
Ary noho izany dia lazaiko aminareo hoe: Aza manahy ny amin’ ny ainareo, dia izay hohaninareo na izay hosotroinareo, na ny amin’ ny tenanareo, dia izay hotafinareo. Moa ny aina tsy mihoatra noho ny hanina va, ary ny tena noho ny fitafiana?
26 See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they?
Tsinjovy ny voro-manidina, fa tsy mba mamafy, na mijinja, na mitaona ho any an-tsompitra ireny; ary ny Rainareo Izay any an-danitra mamelona azy. Moa tsy mihoatra lavitra noho ireny va ianareo?
27 “Which of you by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan?
Ary iza ao aminareo, na dia manahy aza, no mahay manampy ny andro hiainany na dia kely monja aza?
28 Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin,
Ary nahoana no manahy ny amin’ ny fitafiana ianareo? Diniho tsara ny fanirin’ ny voninkazo any an-tsaha; tsy mba miasa na mamoly ireny;
29 yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these.
nefa lazaiko aminareo fa na dia Solomona tao amin’ ny voninahiny rehetra aza tsy mba nitafy tahaka ny anankiray amin’ ireny.
30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won’t he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
Ary raha ny ahitra any an-tsaha, izay any ihany anio ka hatsipy ao am-patana rahampitso, no ampitafin’ Andriamanitra toy izany, tsy mainka va ianareo, ry kely finoana?
31 “Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’
Dia aza manahy ianareo ka manao hoe: Inona no hohaninay? na: Inona no hosotroinay? na: Inona no hotafinay?
32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
Fa izany rehetra izany dia katsahin’ ny jentilisa fatratra; fa fantatry ny Rainareo Izay any an-danitra fa tokony ho anareo izany rehetra izany.
33 But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.
Fa katsaho aloha ny fanjakany sy ny fahamarinany, dia hanampy ho anareo izany rehetra izany.
34 Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient.
Ary amin’ izany dia aza manahy ny amin’ ny ampitso ianareo; fa ny ampitso hanahy ny azy. Ampy ho an’ ny andro ny ratsy miseho ao aminy.
