Matthew 5 (ULK1902)

1Ege E darasmerare abele le lakub, epe E ogi abele paser ge, ege emerilu, epe abara kaimeg giz tabakeuare abim;When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain and sat down. His disciples came to Him,

2Ege E uiabi detager a ereuerem uiabim, kega,and He began to teach them, saying:

3Uerkab uader le gebegeb nerkep; abelelam uiaba uteb kotor baselaia.“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4Uerkab uader le okasosok; abelelam nagri uiaba okadraseked.Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

5Uerkab uader le mapodan tonar; abelelam uiaba nagri gobar atagor abele ged.Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

6Uerkab uader le uererege a niap ge abele barkak tonarlam; abelelam uiaba gem osmeda.Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

7Uerkab uader le nagri nasenas; abelelam E uiabi ko nasenas.Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

8Uerkab uader le og kak nerkep; abelelam uiaba abi erdali abele Ade.Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

9Uerkab uader le demeger abele mapodanuem; abelelam nei atkeroa Ade ra uerem giz.Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.

10Uerkab uader le dedkoli abele barkak tonarlam; abelelam uiaba nagri kotor baselaia.Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11Uerkab uaba ese uiaba adud mer uabim, a uabi dedkoeda a bes mer uabim, a gaire adud uridili uabim karielam.Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.

12Uaba sererege a bapereker; abelelam uaba nagri au bodomalam kotor baselaiaim; abelelam uiaba ikerare mokakalam gaire perofeta giz kekiam uabim.Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets before you.

13Ege uaba gesep ra sol; ese sol nole kurabkurab a nade lu uaba kurabem? nolea nerute lu ko abkoreb ikerare no bataueret adem a le esapili.You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.

14Uaba gesep datki. Umer kak ispili abele uteb tumge paser ge.You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.

15Uiaba nole disirik abele lamepa, a iketilu muige abele kumete; epe iketilu abele lamepa ra uteb, iaueakai datki nagri le uridili abele meta ge.Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

16Uaba datki mokakalam le la opem, iaueakai uiaba erdali uaba debe tonar, uiaba naospered uaba Aba emeri kotor ge.In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

17Uaba nole dikiaporare kaka tabakeamud ko detui abele gelar, gako abele gaire perofeta giz ra mer; kaka nole tabakeamud ko detui, epe bakedida.Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them.

18Abelelam a ageakar kaka uabi detagered, Eseamulu abele kotor ge gako abele gesep ge, epe nole aseamur kak abele iota, gako kebi uar mog abele gelar giz, a mena bakedida gaire lu uridili.For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

19Dasmerare, ese le detui abele kebi gelar, a ereuerem le mokakalam, E nei eteker kebi kale abele kotor baselaia; epe ese le ikeli pako ereuerem abele, E nei eteker au kale abele kotor baselaia.So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20Abelelam kaka uabi detagered, Ese nole aule uaba barkak tonar tumem abele gaire aotale giz gako Faresaio giz, umer kak uaba barot abele kotor baselaia ge.For I tell you that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

21Ua aserare gaire aule giz uiaba mer, Ma nole le ipit eumida; ese le ipit eumida nerute le, E bodomalam abele meratager.You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not murder’ and ‘Anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’

22Epe kakanale uabi detagered, Ese le tababu ueku abara boai, E nagri bodomalam abele meratager; ese le abi detager abara boai, Raka, E nagri bodomalam abele meratager; ege ese nerute le abi detager nerute le, Paim le ae, E nagri bodomalam abele ur Genaim.But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ will be subject to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell.

23Ese ma abi ikuar mara zeku lu abele bao ge, epe ma ko dikiapore mara boai nagri nerute lu mari ueku,So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,

24Ma dikaereti mara zeku lu abele uteb abele bao opem, epe ma bakeam; kekiam abi itikubi mara boai, a ko takomed a ikuar mara zeku lu.leave your gift there before the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.

25Ma dudum abi itikubi abele le ezoli abara gaire lu mari dog, peirdi uaba okakis abele gab ge; iaueakai nole mari emarid abele meratager abele le ezoli abara lu, a ko mari emarid abele meratager tarima le, E tarima le mari emarid abele memeg le, a memeg le mari emarid abele audubare meta.Reconcile quickly with your adversary, while you are still on the way to court. Otherwise, he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison.

26Ageakar kaka mari detager, Ma umer kak ko esomed, pe bakedida abara mani.Truly I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.

27Ua aserare aule giz ra mer, Ma nole kogem;You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’

28Epe kakanale uabi detagered, Ese le dasmer abele kosker E abi lag, E emetu kogem abim abara nerkep.But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

29Ese mara tuter pone mari nadkoli ma dekeamur a adem; abelelam debele nerute mog mara gem abi, a adud batauered mara gem kemerkemer Genaim.If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

30Ese mara tuter tag mari nadkoli, ma isimi adem, abelelam debele nerute mog mara gem abi, a adud batauered mara gem kemerkemer Genaim.And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to depart into hell.

31Uiaba mer kega, Ese le imud abara kosker, debele ko ikuar abim abele dituaki jauali;It has also been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’

32Epe kakanale uabi detagered, Ese le imud abara kosker, epe nole ko kak, E abi namarik kogem; ese le ispilu abele amu kosker E dali kogem.But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, brings adultery upon her. And he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

33Ua aserare aule giz uiaba nerute mer, Ma nole bes iskosi, epe ma abi ikuar abele Opole lu ma emetu iskosi;Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’

34Epe kakanale, kaka uabi detagerare, Nole iskosi kak; nole iskosi abele kotor ge, abelelam Ade ra bao ge;But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;

35Gako abele gesep ge, abelelam abele uteb ekueilu abara teter; gako Ierusalema, abelelam au Opole ra uteb.or by the earth, for it is His footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

36Ma nole iskosi mara kerem ge, abelelam ma umer kak dipegili netat mara mus ko kakekake a golegole.Nor should you swear by your head, for you cannot make a single hair white or black.

37Epe uaba mer mokakalam, Uao, uao; Nole, nole; abelelam abele mer aule gaire mer, abara giz adudelam.Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ Anything more comes from the evil one.

38Ua aserare uiaba mer, Bodomalam abele pone, nerute pone, a bodomalam abele tereg nurute tereg;You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’

39Epe kakanale uabi detagerare, Uaba nole imara abele adud; ese nerute le mara tuter peik bage erese, ma ko batauerik nerute.But I tell you not to resist an evil person. If someone slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also;

40Ese le lagelage mari ikerare abele meratagerem, E ais mara gem uali, ma ikuar mara au gem uali.if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well;

41Ese le mari bamesili abi kemem bakeamulu abele netat mail, ma ko bakeamulu abim neis mail.and if someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.

42Ma abi ikuar abele le mari damosare, ma nole adem dimu abele le lagelage damosare mani marielam.Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.

43Ua aserare uiaba kega, Ma abi nasenase abele le emerilu maike, a deralu abele le mari ueku;You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’ and ‘Hate your enemy.’

44Epe kaka uabi daratagerare, Uaba abi nasenase uiaba le giz uabi ueku, uaba debe mer ikuar uader le uabi adud mer egali, uaba abi nasenase uader le uabi deralu, uaba abi esorerapare uader le uabi bes mer gako uabi dedkoli;But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

45Iaueakai uaba Baba emerilu abele kotor ge abara uerem giz uabim; E abi emarid abara lem uiabim uader le adud tonar, a uader le debe tonar, E abi emarida irmir ko abi uader le barkak tonar, gako uader le adud tonar.that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

46Abelelam ese uaba abi nasenase uader le uabi nasenase, nalu uaba bodomalam nagri? nako telona giz nole ikerare mokakalam abele tonar?If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even tax collectors do the same?

47Ese uaba tepteb nasenase uaba boai, nalu lu aule uaba ikerare? nako telona giz nole ikerare mokakalam?And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even Gentiles do the same?

48Dasmerare, abkoreb uaba debe tonar kemerkemer, mokakalam uaba Baba emerilu kotor ge, E debele kemerkemer.Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
