(Ruka 6. 20-49.) Wakati achivona vanhu vazhinji, akakwira mugomo, akagara pasi. Vadzidzi vake vakaswedera kwaari.And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
Akashamisa muromo wake akavadzidzisa achiti,And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
Vakaropafadzwa varombo pamweya nokuti vushe hwokudenga ndohwavo.Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Vakaropafadzwa vanochema nokuti vachanyaradzwa.Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Vakaropafadzwa vanyoro nokuti vachagara nhaka yenyika.Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Vakaropafadzwa vanenzara nenyota yokururama nokuti vachagutiswa kwazvo.Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Vakaropafadzwa vanengoni nokuti vachaitirwa ngoni.Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Vakaropafadzwa vakachena pamoyo nokuti vachavona Mwari.Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Vakaropafadzwa vanoyananisa nokuti vachanzi vana vaMwari.Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Vakaropafadzwa vanotambudzwa nokuda kwokururama nokuti vushe hwokudenga ndohwavo.Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Makaropafadzwa imi kana vachikuzvidzai, vachikutambudzai, vachikupomerai zvakaipa zvose dziri nhema nokuda kwangu.Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Farai mufarisise kwazvo nokuti mubairo wenyu mukuru kudenga. Nokuti vakatambudza saizvozvo vaporofita vakakutangirai.Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
Imi muri munyu wenyika, asi kana munyu wadurungunda, ucharungwa neiko? Hauchabatsiri chinhu, asi kurashirwa kunze utsikwe navanhu.Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Imi muri chiedza chenyika. Guta rakavakwa pagomo haringavanziki.Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Nomwenje havangautungidzi, vakauisa pasi pedengu, asi pachigadziko uvhenekere vose vari mumba.Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Saizvozvo chiedza chenyu ngachivhenekere pamberi pavanhu kuti vavone mabasa enyu akanaka, vakudze Baba venyu vari kukdenga.Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Musafunga kuti ndakavuya kuparadza murairo kana vaporofita. Handina kuvuya kuparadza asi kuzadzisa.Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Nokuti zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri, kusvikira denga napasi zvichipfuvura, yota imwe kana tsanga imwe yomurairo hazvingatongopfuvuri, zvisati zvaitika zvose.For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Naizvozvo aninani unoputsa mumwe wemirairo miduku iyi, akadzidzisa vanhu kuita saizvozvo, uchanzi muduku muvushe hwokudenga. Asi unoirita, akaidzidzisa uchanzi mukuru muvushe hwokudenga.Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Nokuti ndinoti kwamuri, kana kururama kwenyu kusingapfuvuri kururama kwavanyori nokwavaFarise, hamungatongopindi muvushe hwokudenga.For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi kunavekare, usavuraya. Aninani unovuraya uchapara mhosva ingatongwa.Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
Asi ini ndinoti kwamuri, unotsamwira hama yake pasinemhaka, uchapara mhosva ingatongwa. Unoti kuhama yake Raka, uchapara mhosva pamakurukota. Unoti benzi uchapara mhosva kuti atongerwe Gehena romoto.But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
Naizvozvo kana iwe uchivuya nechipo chako paaritari, ukarangarira ipapo kuti hama yako inemhosva newe.Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
Usiye chipo chako ipapo pamberi paaritari, uende umbondoyanana nehama yako, ugozovuya woisa chipo chako.Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
Kurumidza kutenderana nomudzivisi wako uchiri munzira naye, kuti mudzivisi arege kukukwirira kumutongi, mutongi kumutariri, ukasungwa mutorongo.Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwauri haungatongobudimo usati waripa kamari kokupedzisira.Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi nevakare, usaita vupombwe,Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
Asi ini ndinoti kwamuri, mumwe nomumwe unotarisa mukadzi achimuchiva, watoita vupombwe naye mumoyo make.But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Kana ziso rako rorudyi richikugumbusa, uribvise urirashire kure newe nokuti zvirinani kwauri kuti mutezo wako mumwe ufe muviri wako wose urege kukandirwa muGehena.And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Kana ruvoko rwako rorudyi ruchikugumbusa, urugure, ururashire kure newe nokuti zvirinani kwauri kuti mutezo wako mumwe ufe, muviri wako wose urege kukandirwa muGehena.And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Zvakanzivo aninani unorasha mukadzi wake, ngaamupe rugwaro rokumuramba.It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
Asi ini ndinoti kwamuri, mumwe nomumwe unorasha mukadzi wake, asi nemhosva yovupombwe, unomuitisa vupombwe. Aninani unowana wakarashwa unoita vupombwe.But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
Makanzwavo kuti zvakanzi kuna vekare, usapika nhema, asi uripire Ishe pawakapika napo.Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
Asi ini ndinoti kwamuri, musatongopika kana nokudenga nokuti ndicho chigaro chovushe chaMwari.But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God’s throne:
Kana nenyika nokuti ndicho chitsiko chetsoka dzake, kana neJerusarema nokuti ndiro guta raMambo mukuru.Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
Usapika kana nomusoro wako nokuti haugoni kushandura ruvhudzi rumwe kuti ruve ruchena kana rutema.Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
Asi shoko renyu ngarive, hongu, hongu, kwete, kwete; zvinopfuvura izvozvo zvinobva kuno wakaipa,But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi, ziso rinotsibwa neziso, zino nezino.Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
Asi ndinoti kwamuri musadzivisa wakaipa. Asi unokurova padama rorudyi, umurinzire rimwevo.But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
Kana munhu achida kukukwirira kuti akutorere nguvo yako yomukati, umutendere nenguvo yokunzevo.And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
Aninani unokumanikidza kuenda maira imwe uende naye mbiri.And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
Unokumbira kwauri umupe, usafuratira unoda kukwereta kwauri.Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
Makanzwa kuti zvakanzi, ude wokwako uvenge muvengi wako.Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
Asi ini ndinoti kwamuri, idai vavengi venyu, ropafadzai vanokutukai. Itirai zvakanaka vanokuvengai. Munyengeterere vanokuitirai zvakaipa vachikutambudzai.But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Kuti muve vanakomana vaBaba venyu vari kudenga; nokuti vanobudisira vakaipa navakanaka zuva ravo, nemvura vanoinisira vakarurama navasakarurama.That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
Nokuti kana muchida vanokudai munomubairo weiko?For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
Kana muchikwazisa hama dzenyu bedzi, munopfuvura vamwe neiko? Ko navateresi havaiti saizvozvovo here?And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
Naizvozvo muve vakakwana saBaba venyu vari kudenga vakakwana.Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
