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.
Chenjerai kuti basa renyu rerudo musariita pamberi pevanhu kuti muonekwe navo; kana zvisakadaro hamuna mubairo kuna Baba venyu vari kumatenga.
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.
Naizvozvo kana uchiita basa rerudo, rega kuridza hwamanda pamberi pako sezvinoita vanyepedzeri mumasinagoge nemunzira dzemumaguta kuti vakudzwe nevanhu. Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vagamuchira mubairo wavo.
3 But when you do merciful deeds, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand does,
Asi iwe kana uchiita basa rerudo, ruboshwe rwako ngarurege kuziva zvinoita rudyi rwako.
4 so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
Kuti kuita kwako basa rerudo kuve pakavanda; uye Baba vako vanoona pakavanda, ivo vachakuripira pachena.
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.
Zvino kana uchinyengetera, usava sevanyepedzeri; nokuti vanoda kunyengetera vamire mumasinagoge nepamharadzano dzenzira dzemumaguta kuti vaonekwe nevanhu. Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vagamuchira mubairo wavo.
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.
Asi iwe kana uchinyengetera, pinda muimba yako yemukati, ugovhara mukova wako, unyengetere kuna Baba vako vari pakavanda; zvino Baba vako vanoona pakavanda vachakuripira pachena.
7 In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.
Asi kana muchinyengetera, musapamhidzira-pamhidzira zvisina maturo sevahedheni; nokuti vanofunga kuti vachanzwikwa nekutaura kwavo kuzhinji.
8 Therefore don’t be like them, for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him.
Naizvozvo musafanana navo; nokuti Baba venyu vanoziva chamunoshaiwa musati mavakumbira.
9 Pray like this: “‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.
Naizvozvo imwi nyengeterai seizvi: Baba vedu vari kumatenga, zita renyu ngariitwe dzvene;
10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
ushe hwenyu ngahuuye; chido chenyu ngachiitwe panyikawo sezvachinoitwa kudenga;
11 Give us today our daily bread.
mutipei nhasi kudya kwedu kwemisi yese;
12 Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
uye mutikanganwire mangava edu, isu sezvatinokanganwirawo vane ngava nesu;
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.’
uye musatipinza pakuedzwa, asi mutisunungure pakuipa. Nokuti ushe ndehwenyu nesimba nekubwinya kusvikira rinhi narinhi. Ameni.
14 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Nokuti kana muchikanganwira vanhu kudarika kwavo, Baba venyu vari kudenga vachakukanganwiraiwo.
15 But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Asi kana musingakanganwiri vanhu kudarika kwavo, Baba venyu havangakanganwiriwo kudarika kwenyu.
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.
Uyezve kana muchitsanya, musava nezviso zvinopunyaira sevanyepedzeri; nokuti vanounyanisa zviso zvavo, kuti vaonekwe nevanhu kuti vanotsanya. Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vagamuchira mubairo wavo.
17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,
Asi iwe kana uchitsanya, zodza musoro wako, ugeze chiso chako,
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.
kuti urege kuonekwa kuvanhu kuti unotsanya, asi kuna Baba vako vari pakavanda; zvino Baba vako vanoona pakavanda vachakuripira pachena.
19 “Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal;
Regai kuzviunganidzira fuma panyika, pane chifusi nengura zvinoodza, nepane mbavha dzinopaza dzichiba;
20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal;
asi muzviunganidzire fuma kudenga, uko kusina chifusi kana ngura zvinoodza, naapo mbavha padzisingapazi kana kuba.
21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Nokuti pane fuma yenyu, ndipo pachavawo nemoyo yenyu.
22 “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light.
Mwenje wemuviri iziso; naizvozvo kana ziso rako riri benyu, muviri wako wese uchazara nechiedza.
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!
Asi kana ziso rako rakaipa, muviri wako wese uchazara nerima. Naizvozvo kana chiedza chiri mauri chiri rima, rima iro iguru sei!
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.
Hapana angashumira vatenzi vaviri; nokuti achavenga umwe, akada umwe; kana achanamatira umwe, akazvidza umwe. Hamungashumiri Mwari naMamona.
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?
Naizvozvo ndinoti kwamuri: Musafunganya pamusoro peupenyu hwenyu, zvamuchadya kana zvamuchanwa, kana pamusoro pemuviri wenyu, zvamuchapfeka. Upenyu hahupfuuri kudya here, nemuviri chipfeko?
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?
Tarirai shiri dzedenga, nokuti hadzidzvari kana kukohwa kana kuunganidza mumatura, asi Baba venyu vekudenga vanodzirurira. Imwi hamudzipfuuri zvikuru here?
27 “Which of you by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan?
Ndiani kwamuri nekufunganya angawedzera mbimbi imwe paurefu hwake?
28 Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin,
Nepamusoro pezvipfeko munofunganyirei? Nyatsorangarirai midovatova yenyika, inokura sei; haishingairi, hairuki;
29 yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these.
asi ndinoti kwamuri: Kunyange Soromoni pakubwinya kwake kwese haana kupfekedzwa seimwe yeiyi.
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?
Zvino kana Mwari achifukidza saizvozvo uswa hwenyika, huripo nhasi, hunokandirwa muchoto mangwana, haangakufukidziyi nekupfuurisa here imwi verutendo rudiki?
31 “Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’
Naizvozvo musafunganya, muchiti: Tichadyei? Kana: Tichanwei? Kana: Tichafukei?
32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
Nokuti izvozvi zvese vahedheni vanozvitsvaka, nokuti Baba venyu vekudenga vanoziva kuti munoshaiwa izvozvi zvese.
33 But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.
Asi tangai kutsvaka ushe hwaMwari, nekururama kwake, zvino izvozvi zvese zvichawedzerwa kwamuri.
34 Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient.
Naizvozvo musafunganyira mangwana, nokuti mangwana achazvifunganyira zvinhu zvawo. Zuva rakakwanirwa nezvakaipa zvaro.
