Mateo 18

1 Ordu hartan berean ethor citecen Iesusgana discipuluac, cioitela, Nor da handiena ceruètaco resuman?

At the same time came the disciples to Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

2 Eta deithuric haourtchobat beregana Iesusec, eçar ceçan hura hayén artean.

And Jesus called a little child to him, and set him in the midst of them,

3 Eta erran ceçan, Eguiaz erraiten drauçuet, baldin conuerti ezpaçaitezte, eta haourtchoac beçalaca ezpaçaitezte, etzarete sarthuren ceruètaco resumán.

And said, Verily I say to you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4 Norc-ere bada bere buruä humiliaturen baitu haourtcho haur den beçala, hura da handiena ceruètaco resumán?

Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 Eta norc-ere recebituren baitu hunelaco haourtchobat ene icenean, ni recebitzen nau.

And whoever shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

6 Baina norc-ere scandalizaturen baitu ni baithan sinhesten duten chipi hautaric bat, harc hobe luque vrka lequión bere leppoan asto-errota harribat, eta hunda ledin itsas hundarrean.

But whoever shall cause one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it were better for him that a millstone were hung about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

7 Maledictione munduari scandaloén causaz: ecen necessario da scandaloac datocen, badaric-ere maledictione guiçon hari, ceinez scandalo ethorten baita.

Woe to the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

8 Baldineta eure escuac edo eure oinac trebuca eraciten bahau trenca eçac hura eta iraitzac eureganic, hobe duc hire, mainguric edo escubakoitzdun vicitzean sar adin, ecen ez bi escuac edo bi oinac dituála suco gehennara iraitz adin. (aiōnios g166)

Therefore if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to sin, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. (aiōnios g166)

9 Eta baldin eure beguiac trebuca eraciten bahau, idocac hura, eta iraitzac eureganic: hobe duc hire, begui batarequin vicitzean sar adin, ecen ez bi beguiac dituala suco gehennara iraitz adin. (Geenna g1067)

And if thy eye causeth thee to sin, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. (Geenna g1067)

10 Beguirauçue menosprecia ezteçaçuen chipi hautaric bat: ecen erraiten drauçuet hauen Aingueruèc bethiere dacussatela ene Aita ceruetan denaren beguithartea.

Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.

11 Ecen ethorri içan da guiçonaren Semea galdu cenaren saluatzera.

For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

12 Cer irudi çaiçue? baldin guiçon batec ehun ardi baditu, eta hetaric bat errebela badadi, eztitu lauroguey eta hemeretziac vtziten, eta mendietara ioanic eztu errebelatu cena bilhatzen?

How think ye? if a man hath an hundred sheep, and one of them is gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and go to the mountains, and seek that which is gone astray?

13 Eta baldin guertha badadi eriden deçan hura, eguiaz erraiten drauçuet ecen bozcario guehiago duela harçaz, ecen ez lauroguey eta hemeretzi errebelatu etziradenez.

And if so be that he findeth it, verily I say to you, he rejoiceth more over that sheep, than over the ninety and nine which went not astray.

14 Halaber ezta çuen Aita ceruètan denaren vorondatea chipi hautaric bat gal dadin.

Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

15 Eta baldin hire anayec hire contra faltatu badu, oha eta reprehendi eçac hura, hire eta haren beraren artean: baldin behatzen baçaic, irabaci duc eure anayea.

Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

16 Baina baldin behatzen ezpaçaic, har itzac eurequin oraino bat edo biga: biga edo hirur testimonioren ahoan hitz gucia fermu dençat.

But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

17 Eta baldin hæy behatzen ezpaçaye, erróc Eliçari: eta baldin Eliçari behatzen ezpaçayó, albeiheduca pagano eta publicano beçala.

And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it to the church: but if he shall neglect to hear the church, let him be to thee as an heathen and a tax collector.

18 Eguiaz erraiten drauçuet, cer-ere lothuren baituçue lurrean, lothua içanen da ceruän: eta cer-ere lachaturen baituçue lurrean, lachatua içanen da ceruän.

Verily I say to you, Whatever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

19 Berriz diotsuet ecen baldin çuetaric biguec consenti badeçate lurraren gainean, esca ditecen gauça gucia eguinen çayela ene Aita ceruetan denaz.

Again I say to you, That if two of you shall agree on earth concerning any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.

20 Ecen non baitirade biga edo hirur bilduric ene icenean, han naiz hayén artean.

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

21 Orduan harengana hurbilduric Pierrisec erran ceçan, Iauna, cembatetarano bekatu eguinen du ene contra ene anayec, eta barkaturen draucat? ala çazpitarano?

Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22 Diotsó IESVSEC, Eztiossát çazpitarano, baina çazpitan hiruroguey eta hamarretarano.

Jesus saith to him, I say not to thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

23 Halacotz da comparatu ceruètaco resumá beré cerbitzariequin contu eguin nahi vkan duen regue batequin.

Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a certain king, who would take account of his servants.

24 Eta contu eguiten hassi cenean, presenta cequión bat, hamar-milla talent hari çor ceraucanic.

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought to him, who owed him ten thousand talents.

25 Eta ceren harc ezpaitzuen nondic paga, mana ceçan haren iaunac sal ledin hura, eta haren emaztea, eta haourrac, eta cituen gauça guciac: eta çorra paga ledin.

But as he had nothing with which to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

26 Halacotz cerbitzari hunec bere buruä lurrera egotziric supplicatzen çuen hura, cioela, Iauna, auc patientia enegana, eta gucia pagaturen drauát.

The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

27 Orduan compassione harturic cerbitzari haren iaunac, vtzi ceçan, eta çorra quitta cieçon.

Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

28 Baina ilkiric cerbitzari hunec eriden ceçan bere cerbitzari quidetaric bat, ehun dinero çor ceraucanic: eta hura hatzamanic ithotzen çuen, cioela, Paga neçac çor duanaz.

But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, who owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me what thou owest.

29 Eta bere cerbitzari-quideac haren oinetara bere buruä egotziric othoitz eguiten ceraucan, cioela, Auc patientia enegana, eta gucia pagaturen drauat.

And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

30 Baina harc etzuen eguin nahi vkan, aitzitic ioanic eçar ceçan hura presoinean, çorra paga liroeno.

And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

31 Bada ikussiric haren cerbitzari-quidéc cer eguin içan cen, triste citecen haguitz: eta ethorriric declara cieçoten bere iaunari eguin içan cen gucia.

So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told to their lord all that was done.

32 Orduan hura deithuric bere iaunac diotsa, Cerbitzari gaichtoá, çor hura gucia quittatu drauat, ceren othoitz eguin baitrautac:

Then his lord, having called him, said to him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou didst beg me:

33 Ez-auena hic-ere eure cerbitzari-quideaz pietate vkan behar, nic-ere hiçaz pietate vkan dudan beçala?

Shouldest thou not also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

34 Orduan asserreturic bere iaunac sargeantey hura eman ciecén, hari çor ceraucan gucia paga lieçaqueono.

And his lord was angry, and delivered him to the torturers, till he should pay all that was due to him.

35 Hala ene Aita ceruètan denac-ere eguinen drauçue çuey, baldin batbederac bere anayeri gogotic faltác barka ezpadietzoçue.

So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also to you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
