Matthai 5
1 A hmuh neh hlangping taengah tlang la luei tih a ngol vaengah anih te a hnukbang rhoek loh a paan uh.
Having seen then the crowds He went up on the mountain, and when was sitting down He they came to Him the disciples of Him.
2 Te vaengah a ka a ong tih amih a thuituen.
And opening the mouth of Him He was teaching them saying:
3 Mueihla khodaeng rhoek tah a yoethen uh, vaan ram te amih kah la om.
Blessed [are] the poor in the spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of the heavens.
4 Aka nguek rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih te a hloep uh ni.
Blessed [are] those mourning, for they themselves will be comforted.
5 Muelhtuet rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih long ni diklai a pang eh.
Blessed [are] the meek, for they themselves will inherit the earth.
6 Duengnah te aka hal tih aka pong rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih tah hah uh ni.
Blessed [are] those hungering and thirsting for righteousness, for they themselves will be filled.
7 Hlang aka rhen rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih te a rhen uh ni.
Blessed [are] the merciful, for they themselves will receive mercy.
8 thinko aka caih rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih long ni Pathen te a hmuh eh.
Blessed [are] the pure in heart, for they themselves God will see.
9 Rhoepnah la aka om rhoek tah a yoethen uh, amih ni Pathen kah ca rhoek la a khue uh eh.
Blessed [are] the peacemakers, for they themselves sons of God will be called.
10 Duengnah kongah a hnaemtaek rhoek tah a yoethen uh, vaan ram te amih kah ni.
Blessed [are] those persecuted on account of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of the heavens.
11 Kai kongah nangmih te thuithet tih, hnaemtaek tih laithaethui rhoek loh nangmih soah a thae la boeih n' thui uh vaengah na yoethenuh.
Blessed are you when they may insult you and they may persecute [you] and they may say all kinds of evil (declaration *k) against you lying on account of Me.
12 “Omngaih uh lamtah hlampan uh. Vaan ah nangmih kah thapang muep om. Nangmih hlankah tonghma rhoek khaw a hnaemtaek uh rhoe.
do rejoice and do exult, for the reward of you [is] great in the heavens; thus for they persecuted the prophets before you.
13 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.
You yourselves are the salt of the earth; if however the salt shall become tasteless, with what will it be salted? For no [thing] it is useful any longer only except for (being cast *N+kO) out (and *k) is to be trampled upon by men.
14 Nangmih tah Diklai vangnah la na om uh. Tlang soah a thoong khopuei tah khuup thai tlaih pawh.
You yourselves are the light of the world; Not is able a city to be hidden on a hill lying;
15 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.
Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket but upon the lampstand, and it shines for all those in the house.
16 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.
Thus should shine the light of you before men so that they may see your good works and they may glorify the Father of you who [is] in the heavens.
17 Olkhueng neh tonghma rhoek ol he phae hamla ka lo tila poek uh boeh, phae ham pawt tih soep sak ham ni ka lo.
Not may think that I have come to abolish the law or the Prophets; not I have come to abolish but to fulfill.
18 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.
Amen for I say to you; until when may pass away the heaven and the earth, iota one or one stroke of a letter certainly not may pass away from the law until when everything may happen.
19 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.
Who[ever] if then shall break one of the commandments of these the least and shall teach so the others, least he will be called in the kingdom of the heavens. who[ever] now maybe may keep and may teach [them], this [one] great will be called in the kingdom of the heavens.
20 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.
I say for to you that only unless shall abound your righteousness above [that] of the scribes and Pharisees, certainly not shall you enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
21 Khosuen kah a thui te na yaak uh coeng. Hlang ngawn boeh, aka ngawn te tah laitloeknah om kuekluek saeh.
You have heard that it was said to the ancients; Not you will murder; who[ever] now maybe may murder, liable will be to the judgment;’
22 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)
I myself however say to you that everyone who is being angry with the brother of him (in vain *KO) liable will be to the judgment; who[ever] now maybe may say to the brother of him; Raca,’ liable will be to the Sanhedrin; who[ever] now maybe may say; Fool, liable will be to the hell of fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 Te dongah hmueihtuk la na kutdoe na khuen vaengah, na manuca loh nang soah khat khat ngaihlih a om te na poek atah,
If therefore you shall offer the gift of you at the altar and there and there shall remember that the brother of you has something against you,
24 Na kutdoe te hmueihtuk hmai ah pak hlah. Na manuca taengah cet lamhma lamtah moeithen dae, te phoeiah cet lamtah na kutdoe te pae.
do leave there the gift of you before the altar and do go away, first do be reconciled to the brother of you, and then having come do offer the gift of you.
25 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.
do be agreeing with the accuser of you quickly before which you are with him on the way otherwise otherwise you shall deliver the accuser to the judge, and the judge (you he may betray *KO) to the officer, and into prison you will be cast.
26 Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, a hnukkhueng pekhat hil na thuung hlan atah te lamkah na loeih mahpawh.
Amen I say to you; certainly not you may come out from there until when you may pay the last kodranten!
27 Samphaih boeh a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
You have heard that it was said (to the ancients: *K) Not will you commit adultery.’
28 Tedae nangmih taengah ka thui. Huta te a hue neh aka dan boeih tah, a thinko ah a samphaih puei oepsoeh coeng.
I myself however say to you that everyone who is looking upon a woman in order to lust after (her *N+kO) already has committed adultery with her in the heart of him.
29 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)
If now the eye of you right causes to stumble you, do pluck out it and do cast [it] from you; it is better indeed for you that may perish one of the members of you and not all the body of you may be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
30 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)
And if the right of you hand causes to stumble you, do cut off it and do cast [it] from you; it is better indeed for you that may perish one of the members of you and not all the body of you into hell (may depart. *N+KO) (Geenna g1067)
31 “A yuu aka hla loh yuhlaknah te a yuu taengah pae saeh,” a ti.
It was said also (that: *k) Who[ever] maybe may divorce the wife of him, he should give to her a letter of divorce.’
32 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.
I myself however say to you that (everyone who is divorcing *N+kO) the wife of him except on account of sexual immorality causes her (to be adulterated; *N+KO) And who[ever] if divorced shall marry, commits adultery.
33 Khosuen kah a thui te koep na yaak coeng, basa boeh saw. Tedae na olhlo te boeipa taengah na thuung ni.
Again you have heard that it was said to the ancients; Not will you swear falsely, you will keep now to the Lord the oaths of you.
34 Tedae nangmih taengah toemngam loengloeng boeh ka ti. Vaan nen khaw toemngam boeh. Te tah Pathen kah ngolkhoel ni.
I myself however say to you not to swear at all, neither [swear] by heaven because [the] throne it is of God,
35 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.
nor [swear] by the earth because [the] footstool it is of the feet of Him, nor [swear] by Jerusalem because [the] city it is of the great King,
36 Na lu nen khaw toemngam boeh. Sam pakhat pataeng a bok neh a muem la na saii thai moenih.
nor by the head of you may you swear because not you are able one hair white to make or black.
37 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.
should be however the statement of you Yes Yes, [and] ‘No ‘No; The however excessive of these from evil comes.
38 “Mik ham te mik, no ham te no,” a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
You have heard that it was said; Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’
39 Nangmih taengah kan thui, a thae te kamkaih boeh, tedae bantang kah na kamrhuh aka bael te pakhat ben khaw a taengla hooi pah.
I myself however say to you not to resist the evil [person]. Instead whoever you (strike on *N+kO) the right cheek of you, do turn to him also the other;
40 Nang toe ham neh na angki loh aka ngaih te himbai khaw hlah pah thil.
and to the [one] willing you to sue and the tunic of you to take, do yield to him also the cloak;
41 Nang meng khat aka tanolh te, amah te meng nit khaw caeh puei.
and whoever you will compel to go mile one, do go with him two.
42 Nang taengah aka bih te pae. Nang taengah puu hamla aka ngaih te khaw bal sak boeh.
To the [one] asking you (do give *N+kO) and the [one] desiring from you to borrow not may you turn away from.
43 “Na imben te lungnah, na rhal te thiinah,” a ti te na yaak uh coeng.
You have heard that it was said; You will love the neighbour of you and will hate the enemy of you.’
44 Tedae kai loh nangmih taengah kan thui, na rhal rhoek te lungnah lamtah, nangmih aka hnaemtaek rhoek ham thangthui pauh.
I myself however say to you; do love the enemies of you (do bless those cursing you well do *K) (to those hating *K+o) (you *K) and do pray for those (mistreating you and *K) persecuting you,
45 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.
so that you may be sons of the Father of you who is in (the *o) heavens, For the sun of Him He makes rise on evil and good and He sends rain on righteous and unrighteous.
46 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?
If for you shall love those loving you, what reward have you? Surely also the tax collectors the (same *NK+o) do?
47 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?
And if you shall greet the (brothers *NK+O) of you only, what excessive do you? Surely also the (Gentiles *N+KO) (the *no) (same *N+kO) do?
48 Te dongah vaan kah na Pa loh lungcuei la a om bangla nangmih khaw lungcuei la om uh.
Will be therefore you yourselves perfect (how *N+kO) the Father of you who (Heavenly *N+KO) perfect is.
