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.
“Mulikali weri namwiza kutenda matendu genu gagamfiriziya Mlungu kulongolu kwa wantu su mfira wakuloleni. Handa pamtenda hangu, Tati gwenu kakumpindi hapeni kawapanani mafupu.
2 Therefore, when you do merciful deeds, don’t sound a shofar 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.
“Su, pagumpanana vintu muhushu nagulibwera, nagutenda gambira wafyangu ntambu yawatenda mnumba za Mlungu na munjira wantenda hangu su wantu wawakwisi. Nukugambirani nakaka, wantu awa wapata kala mafupu gawu goseri.
3 But when you do merciful deeds, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand does,
Kumbiti gwenga pagumpanana vintu muhushu, gutendi ntambu ayi ata ganja gwaku nakavimana shagutenda.
4 so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
Shilii shagutenditi hashiweri muubada. Tati gwaku yakawona muubada, hakakupi lifupu.
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.
“Pamluwa Mlungu namtenda gambira wafyangu! Womberi wafira kugoloka na kumluwa Mlungu pakati pa numba za Mlungu na pakati pa mbwega za njira su wantu wawaloli. Nukugambirani nakaka, womberi wapata kala mafupu gawu goseri.
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.
Kumbiti gwenga pagumluwa Mlungu, gwingiri mushumba shaku, gutati mlyangu, shakapanu gumluwi Tati gwaku yakawoneka ndiri. Na Tati gwaku yakawona vintu vya muubada, hakakupanani lifupu.
7 In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.
“Pamumluwa Mlungu, nambotanga gambira wantu yawamumana ndiri Mlungu. Womberi walihola kuwera milungu yawu hayiwapikaniri toziya ya visoweru vyawu vivuwa.
8 Therefore don’t be like them, for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him.
Namuwera gambira womberi. Tati gwenu kavimana kala galii gamfira pamberi pa kumluwa.
9 Pray like this: “‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.
Su, hangu ndo ntambu yamfiruwa kumluwa Mlungu, ‘Tati gwetu gwa kumpindi, Litawu lyaku likwiswi.
10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Ufalumi waku wizi, Shagufira shitendeki pasipanu gambira kumpindi.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
Gutupanani leru shiboga shetu sha kila lishaka.
12 Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
Gutulekiziyi vidoda vya twenga, ntambu yatuwalekeziyiti yawatutendiriti vidoda.
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.’
Nagutwingiziya mukujerwa, Kumbiti gutulopoziyi kulawa kwa Mkondola ulii’.
14 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
“Toziya pamuwalekeziya wantu vidoda vyawu, Tati gwenu gwa kumpindi hakawalekiziyani mwenga.
15 But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Kumbiti pamuwalekeziya ndiri wantu vidoda vyawu, Tati gwenu hapeni kawalekiziyi mwenga vidoda vyenu.
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.
“Pamleka kuliya, namhinginika kusheni ntambu yawatenda wafyangu. Womberi wahinginika kusheni kwawu, su kila muntu kamloli handa woya kuliya. Nuwagambirani nakaka, womberi wapata kala mafupu gawu.
17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,
Kumbiti gwenga pagoya kuliya, guliswagi mtuwi gwaku lipaki na gunawi sheni shaku,
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.
Su, muntu yoseri nakavimana handa gwoya kuliya, Su gumanikani hera Tati gwaku yakawonekana ndiri. Na Tati gwaku yakawona shagutenda muubada, hakakupanani lifupu.
19 “Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal;
“Namlitulira luhanja pasipanu, wameyi na kutu vihalibisiya na vimpegu wabomolanga na kwiwa.
20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal;
Mlituliri luhanja lwenu kumpindi, kweni wamehi na kutu hapeni waluharibisii na vimpegu hapeni wabomolangi na kwiwa.
21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Toziya palii paluwera luhanja lwaku, ndo haguweri moyu gwaku.
22 “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light.
“Lisu ndo limuliku lya nshimba. Handa lisu lyaku ndo likomu, nshimba yaku yoseri hayiweri mugulangala.
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!
Handa lisu lyaku palilwala, nshimba yaku yoseri hayiweri muntiti. Su, gulangala waguwera mngati mwaku ndo ntiti, su ayi ndo ntiti ya kulyogisiya nentu!
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.
“Kwahera muntu yakaweza kuwatendera watuwa wawili, toziya hakamkalaliri yumu na kumfira yumonga, ama hakamjimiri yumu na kumbeza yumonga. Hapeni mumtenderi Mlungu na mpiya.
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?
“Ndo mana nuwagambirani, namtira kuusu shiboga na shilandwa vyamfira su mulikali, ama hamvali shishi. Hashi, makaliru ndo shiboga hera ama nentu? Na nshimba hashi handa nentu ndiri ya nguwu?
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?
Muwaloli wampongu wa muntundu, wayala ndiri mbeyu na wabena ndiri, wala wahera luwanja loseri. Ata hangu, Tati gwenu gwa kumpindi kawaliyiziya! Hashi, mwenga mwamana ndiri kuliku wampongu awa?
27 “Which of you by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan?
Ndo gaa muwamu mwenu yakawera na lyoga kaweza kwongera shipindi sha kulikala pasipanu?
28 Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin,
“Ntambu gaa mulihola kuusu nguwu? Mloli uluwa wa muntundu ntambu yawukula, utenda ndiri lihengu pota na kupota.
29 yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these.
Kumbiti nuwagambirani, ata Mfalumi Selemani mweni na ulunda wakuwi woseri wamvalisiya ndiri nguwu ziherepa gambira uluwa awu.
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?
Payiwera, Mlungu kaluvalusiya luhamba lwa mlushi hangu lweni leru lwa palaa na shirawu lwaswa mumotu. Hashi, hakawatenderi mwenga nentu? Mwenga wantu mwana moyu mdidini!
31 “Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’
“Su, namwera na lyoga, ‘Shiboga shangu hashilawi koshi? Ama hatulandi shishi? Ama hatuvali shishi?’
32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
Vyoseri avi, wantu yawamumana ndiri Mlungu wavisakula. Tati gwenu gwa kumpindi kavimana kuwera mfira vintu vyoseri avi.
33 But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.
Su, mtendiwuti Ufalumi wa Mlungu na galii gakafira Mlungu na aga goseri hakakupanani nyongeru.
34 Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient.
Su, namwana lyoga kuusu shirawu, shirawu hailiholi yeni. Magaziwu ga lishaka limu gankuwatosha kwa lishaka ali.
