mathiḥ 7
1 yathā yūyaṁ doṣīkṛtā na bhavatha, tatkṛte'nyaṁ doṣiṇaṁ mā kuruta|
"Do not judge, so that you won't be judged.
2 yato yādṛśena doṣeṇa yūyaṁ parān doṣiṇaḥ kurutha, tādṛśena doṣeṇa yūyamapi doṣīkṛtā bhaviṣyatha, anyañca yena parimāṇena yuṣmābhiḥ parimīyate, tenaiva parimāṇena yuṣmatkṛte parimāyiṣyate|
For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
3 aparañca nijanayane yā nāsā vidyate, tām anālocya tava sahajasya locane yat tṛṇam āste, tadeva kuto vīkṣase?
And why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
4 tava nijalocane nāsāyāṁ vidyamānāyāṁ, he bhrātaḥ, tava nayanāt tṛṇaṁ bahiṣyartuṁ anujānīhi, kathāmetāṁ nijasahajāya kathaṁ kathayituṁ śaknoṣi?
Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and look, the log is in your own eye?
5 he kapaṭin, ādau nijanayanāt nāsāṁ bahiṣkuru tato nijadṛṣṭau suprasannāyāṁ tava bhrātṛ rlocanāt tṛṇaṁ bahiṣkartuṁ śakṣyasi|
You hypocrite. First remove the log out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.
6 anyañca sārameyebhyaḥ pavitravastūni mā vitarata, varāhāṇāṁ samakṣañca muktā mā nikṣipata; nikṣepaṇāt te tāḥ sarvvāḥ padai rdalayiṣyanti, parāvṛtya yuṣmānapi vidārayiṣyanti|
"Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, or they will trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces.
7 yācadhvaṁ tato yuṣmabhyaṁ dāyiṣyate; mṛgayadhvaṁ tata uddeśaṁ lapsyadhve; dvāram āhata, tato yuṣmatkṛte muktaṁ bhaviṣyati|
"Ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.
8 yasmād yena yācyate, tena labhyate; yena mṛgyate tenoddeśaḥ prāpyate; yena ca dvāram āhanyate, tatkṛte dvāraṁ mocyate|
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
9 ātmajena pūpe prārthite tasmai pāṣāṇaṁ viśrāṇayati,
Or who is there among you, who, if his son will ask him for bread, will give him a stone?
10 mīne yācite ca tasmai bhujagaṁ vitarati, etādṛśaḥ pitā yuṣmākaṁ madhye ka āste?
Or if he will ask for a fish, who will give him a serpent?
11 tasmād yūyam abhadrāḥ santo'pi yadi nijabālakebhya uttamaṁ dravyaṁ dātuṁ jānītha, tarhi yuṣmākaṁ svargasthaḥ pitā svīyayācakebhyaḥ kimuttamāni vastūni na dāsyati?
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him.
12 yūṣmān pratītareṣāṁ yādṛśo vyavahāro yuṣmākaṁ priyaḥ, yūyaṁ tān prati tādṛśāneva vyavahārān vidhatta; yasmād vyavasthābhaviṣyadvādināṁ vacanānām iti sāram|
Therefore whatever you desire for people to do to you, so also you should do to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.
13 saṅkīrṇadvāreṇa praviśata; yato narakagamanāya yad dvāraṁ tad vistīrṇaṁ yacca vartma tad bṛhat tena bahavaḥ praviśanti|
"Enter in by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter in by it.
14 aparaṁ svargagamanāya yad dvāraṁ tat kīdṛk saṁkīrṇaṁ| yacca vartma tat kīdṛg durgamam| taduddeṣṭāraḥ kiyanto'lpāḥ|
How narrow is the gate, and difficult is the way that leads to life. Few are those who find it.
15 aparañca ye janā meṣaveśena yuṣmākaṁ samīpam āgacchanti, kintvantardurantā vṛkā etādṛśebhyo bhaviṣyadvādibhyaḥ sāvadhānā bhavata, yūyaṁ phalena tān paricetuṁ śaknutha|
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
16 manujāḥ kiṁ kaṇṭakino vṛkṣād drākṣāphalāni śṛgālakolitaśca uḍumbaraphalāni śātayanti?
By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 tadvad uttama eva pādapa uttamaphalāni janayati, adhamapādapaevādhamaphalāni janayati|
Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.
18 kintūttamapādapaḥ kadāpyadhamaphalāni janayituṁ na śaknoti, tathādhamopi pādapa uttamaphalāni janayituṁ na śaknoti|
A good tree cannot produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.
19 aparaṁ ye ye pādapā adhamaphalāni janayanti, te kṛttā vahnau kṣipyante|
Every tree that does not grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.
20 ataeva yūyaṁ phalena tān pariceṣyatha|
Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
21 ye janā māṁ prabhuṁ vadanti, te sarvve svargarājyaṁ pravekṣyanti tanna, kintu yo mānavo mama svargasthasya pituriṣṭaṁ karmma karoti sa eva pravekṣyati|
Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22 tad dine bahavo māṁ vadiṣyanti, he prabho he prabho, tava nāmnā kimasmāmi rbhaviṣyadvākyaṁ na vyāhṛtaṁ? tava nāmnā bhūtāḥ kiṁ na tyājitāḥ? tava nāmnā kiṁ nānādbhutāni karmmāṇi na kṛtāni?
Many will tell me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did not we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?'
23 tadāhaṁ vadiṣyāmi, he kukarmmakāriṇo yuṣmān ahaṁ na vedmi, yūyaṁ matsamīpād dūrībhavata|
And then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who practice lawlessness.'
24 yaḥ kaścit mamaitāḥ kathāḥ śrutvā pālayati, sa pāṣāṇopari gṛhanirmmātrā jñāninā saha mayopamīyate|
"Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, will be compared to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.
25 yato vṛṣṭau satyām āplāva āgate vāyau vāte ca teṣu tadgehaṁ lagneṣu pāṣāṇopari tasya bhittestanna patati
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 kintu yaḥ kaścit mamaitāḥ kathāḥ śrutvā na pālayati sa saikate gehanirmmātrā 'jñāninā upamīyate|
And everyone who hears these words of mine, and does not do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.
27 yato jalavṛṣṭau satyām āplāva āgate pavane vāte ca tai rgṛhe samāghāte tat patati tatpatanaṁ mahad bhavati|
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell—and great was its fall."
28 yīśunaiteṣu vākyeṣu samāpiteṣu mānavāstadīyopadeśam āścaryyaṁ menire|
And it happened, when Jesus had finished saying these things, that the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
29 yasmāt sa upādhyāyā iva tān nopadideśa kintu samarthapuruṣa̮iva samupadideśa|
for he taught them with authority, and not like their scribes.
