Matthew 6 (GAX)

1Yesuus, «Nami akka isin dhagguuf jettanee hujii dansaa isaan duratti akka hin hunye ifi eeggadha'a! Akkas yoo gootane, Abbaa keessan ka ol-gubbaa jiru biraa gatii hin qaddanu.“Be careful not to perform your righteous acts before men to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

2«Hiyyeeyyi'iif yennaa arjoontanu, akka worri kijibu kolbaan akka isaan galateeffattuuf, Mana Waaqonfannaa Yihudootaa keessaa fi karaa irratti godhanu, ifi mudhisiisaaf hin godhina'a. Ani dhugumaan isinitti hima, isaan gatii ifii dhaggataneeran.So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.

3Ati yennaa arjoontu ammoo, waan harki keeti middichi godhiisatti jiru harki keeti bitaachinuu hin beekin.But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

4Maarre arjoom keeti dhossa'aan te'uu ti; Abbaan keeti ka waan ati dhossa'aan tolchitu dhaggu, gatii si'iif hin kenna.so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

5«Isin yennaa daadimattanu, akka worra kijibuu hin te'ina'a! Isaan worri dhibiin akka isaan dhagguuf, Galma Waaqaa keessaa fi woldeennaa karaa gugurda'aatitti dhaabbatanee daadimatiisa jaalatan. Ani dhugumaan isinitti hima, isaan gatii ifii dhaggataneeran.And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.

6Ati ammoo yennaa daadimattu, gara kolloo teetii seen, balbala cufadhuu, gara Abbaa keeti ka addee dhokatte jiruu daadimadhu. Abbaan keetille, ka waan ati dhossa'aan huju dhaggu, gatii teeti si'iif hin kenna.But when you pray, go into your inner room, shut your door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

7«Yennaa daadimattanu akka worra Yihudoota hin te'inii, jecha bu'aa hin qanne itti hin deddeebi'ina'a; isaan heddummaa jechoota isaaniitiif, waaqi waan isaaniif dhage'u seyan.And when you pray, do not babble on like pagans, for they think that by their many words they will be heard.

8Isin ammoo akka isaanii hin te'ina'a. Abbaan keessan waan isin barbaachisu isin adoo isa hin gaafatinuu hin beeka.Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.

9«Tanaaf, yennaa daadimattanu, «‹Abbaa keenna ka ol-gubbaa jirtu, Maqaan keeti woyyoomu;So then, this is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name.

10mootummaan teeti dhuttu; fedhiin teeti akkuma ol-gubba'atti teete, lafalle'etti teetu.Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

11Sagalee guyyuma guyya'aan nuu barbaachittu adha nuu kenni.Give us this day our daily bread.

12Akkuma nuuti worra nu yakkuuf araarannu, yakkaa teenna nuu araarami.And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

13Hamaalessa irraa nu eegi malee, ataabe'etti nu hin galchin. Mootummaan, hunni, ulfinnille baruma baraan keetuma. Ameen› jedha'a.And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’

14«Yoo isin yakkaa namootaaf araarantane, Abbaan keessan ka ol-gubbaa jiru isiniif hin araarama.For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

15Yoo isin yakkaa namootaaf hin araaramin ammoo, Abbaan keessan ka ol-gubbaa jiru yakkaa teessan isiniif hin araaramu» jedhe.But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive yours.

16Yesuus, «Yennaa laantanu, akka worri kijibu tolchu fuula keessan hin addeessina'a. Laamuu isaanii namooti akka dhagganuuf isaan ifi addeessan. Ani dhugumaan isinitti hima, isaan gatii ifii fudhataneeran.When you fast, do not be somber like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces to show men they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.

17Ati ammoo yennaa laantu, fuula keeti dhiqadhu, mataa keetille iffadhu!But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,

18Tanaaf laamiisa keeti, Abbaa keeti ka addee dhokatte jiru qofatti beeka malee, worri dhibiin beekuu hin dande'u. Abbaan keetille, ka waan ati dhossa'aan hujju dhaggu, gatii teeti si'iif hin kenna» jedhe.so that your fasting will not be obvious to men, but only to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

19Yesuus dabalee, «Addee qooqqanna'aa fi ciillayiisi balleessutti, hattuulle cassitee seentee hattutti, as lafa tana irratti karra teessan hin kuufatina'a.Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.

20Ammoo addee qooqqanna'aa fi ciillayiisi dande'ee hin balleessine, hattuulle cassitee seentee hatuu hin dandeenne, ol-gubba'atti karra teessan kuufadha'a.But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

21Yennaa mara addee karri teessan jirtu gadhaan keessanille jira» jedhe.For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

22Yesuus, «Ilti ifa nafaa ti; ilti teeti fayyaa yoo teete, nafi keeti duudiin ifaalessa hin te'a;The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light.

23ilti teeti fayyaa yoo dhadde ammoo, nafi keeti duudiin dukkana te'a; ifi sitti jiru dukkana yoo te'e, dukkanti attam attam guddattu ree!» jedhe.But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

24Yesuus itti dabalee, «Nami tokko garbicha goottolee lamaa te'iisaaf hin dande'u; tokkocha hin jibba, kaan hin jaalata; yookiin tokkocha ulfeessee kaan tuffata. Akkasuma Waaqaa fi beese'eef tajaajiluu hin dande'u» jedhe.No one can serve two masters: Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

25«Tanaaf ani isinitti hima, jiruu teessaniif maan nyaanna, yookiin maan unna, yookiin marroo nafa keessanii, maan uffanna jettanee hin yaadina'a. Jiruun sagalee, nafi woyaa hin caaluu?Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?

26Sinbirroota ilaala'a; isaan midhaan hin facaasanu yookiin haamanee gootara'atti hin galchanu; Abbaan keessan ka ol-gubbaa jiru isaan nyaachisa. Isin guddoo sinbirroota hin caaltanuu ree?Look at the birds of the air: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

27Isin keessaa nami yaadiisaan, bara jiruu ifii irratti guyyuma tokkolle ka dande'ee dabalatu jiraa?Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

28«Marroo woya'aa maaf yaaddan ree? Daraaroti attam akka guddatanu ilaala'a; isaan hin hujatanu yookiin woyaa ifiif hin dhowatanu.And why do you worry about clothes? Consider how the lilies of the field grow: They do not labor or spin.

29Te'uu malee, Solomooniin mootichinuu ulfinna ifii maraan daraarota san keessaa akka tokkochaa woyaa akka hin uffatin isinitti hima.Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these.

30Waaqi marra adha mudhatee, boru ibiddatti gatamu yoo akkas uffise, isin fa'a attam caalchisee uffisuu dhaba ree? Isin worra dhugeeffannaa diqqo'oo!If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

31«Maarre, ‹Maan nyaanna?› yookiin ‹Maan unna?› yookiin ‹Maan uffanna?› jedhaa hin yaaddayina'a;Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’

32worri Yihudoota hin te'in yennaa mara yaada waan kanaatiin qabamaneeran. Tun marti akka isinii barbaachittu Abbaan keessan ka ol-gubba'aa hin beeka.For the Gentiles strive after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.

33Dursa'aatii mootummaa Waaqaatii fi balchummaa isaa barbaada'a; tun martinuu isiniif hin kennanti.But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.

34Maarre marroo boruutiif hin yaadayina'a; guyyaan boruu ifiifuu yaaddoo isa gewu qaba. Rakkinni adhaa adhaaf hin geya» jedhe.Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Today has enough trouble of its own.
