¹እንዳይፈረድባችሁ አትፍረዱ፤ በምትፈርዱበት ፍርድ ይፈረድባችኋልና፥ በምትሰፍሩበትም መስፈሪያ ይሰፈርባችኋል።

¹ “Don’t judge, so that you won’t be judged.

³በወንድምህም ዓይን ያለውን ጉድፍ ስለምን ታያለህ፥ በዓይንህ ግን ያለውን ምሰሶ ስለ ምን አትመለከትም?

² For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.

⁴ወይም ወንድምህን። ከዓይንህ ጉድፍ ላውጣ ፍቀድልኝ እንዴትስ ትለዋለህ? እነሆም፥ በዓይንህ ምሰሶ አለ።

³ Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye?

⁵አንተ ግብዝ፥ አስቀድመህ ከዓይንህ ምሰሶውን አውጣ፥ ከዚያም በኋላ ከወንድምህ ዓይን ጉድፉን ታወጣ ዘንድ አጥርተህ ታያለህ።

⁴ Or how will you tell your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye;’ and behold, the beam is in your own eye?

⁶በእግራቸው እንዳይረግጡት ተመልሰውም እንዳይነክሱአችሁ፥ የተቀደሰውን ለውሾች አትስጡ፥ ዕንቁዎቻችሁንም በእሪያዎች ፊት አትጣሉ።

⁵ You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother’s eye.

⁷ለምኑ፥ ይሰጣችሁማል፤ ፈልጉ፥ ታገኙማላችሁ፤ መዝጊያን አንኳኩ፥ ይከፈትላችሁማል።

⁶ “Don’t give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.

⁸የሚለምነው ሁሉ ይቀበላልና፥ የሚፈልገውም ያገኛል፥ መዝጊያንም ለሚያንኳኳ ይከፈትለታል።

⁷ “Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.

⁹ወይስ ከእናንተ፥ ልጁ እንጀራ ቢለምነው፥ ድንጋይን የሚሰጠው ከእናንተ ማን ሰው ነው?

⁸ For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

¹⁰ዓሣስ ቢለምነው እባብን ይሰጠዋልን?

⁹ Or who is there among you, who, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?

¹¹እንኪያስ እናንተ ክፉዎች ስትሆኑ ለልጆቻችሁ መልካም ስጦታ መስጠትን ካወቃችሁ፥ በሰማያት ያለው አባታችሁ ለሚለምኑት እንዴት አብልጦ መልካም ነገርን ይሰጣቸው?

¹⁰ Or if he asks for a fish, who will give him a serpent?

¹²እንግዲህ ሰዎች ሊያደርጉላችሁ የምትወዱትን ሁሉ እናንተ ደግሞ እንዲሁ አድርጉላቸው፤ ሕግም ነቢያትም ይህ ነውና።

¹¹ 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!

¹³በጠበበው ደጅ ግቡ፤ ወደ ጥፋት የሚወስደው ደጅ ሰፊ፥ መንገዱም ትልቅ ነውና፥ ወደ እርሱም የሚገቡ ብዙዎች ናቸው፤

¹² Therefore whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.

¹⁴ወደ ሕይወት የሚወስደው ደጅ የጠበበ፥ መንገዱም የቀጠነ ነውና፥ የሚያገኙትም ጥቂቶች ናቸው።

¹³ “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.

¹⁵የበግ ለምድ ለብሰው ከሚመጡባችሁ በውሥጣቸው ግን ነጣቂዎች ተኵላዎች ከሆኑ ከሐሰተኞች ነቢያት ተጠንቀቁ።

¹⁴ How TR reads “Because” instead of “How” narrow is the gate, and restricted is the way that leads to life! Few are those who find it.

¹⁶ከፍሬያቸው ታውቋቸዋላችሁ። ከእሾህ ወይን ከኩርንችትስ በለስ ይለቀማልን?

¹⁵ “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.

¹⁷እንዲሁ መልካም ዛፍ ሁሉ መልካም ፍሬ ያደርጋል፥ ክፉም ዛፍ ክፉ ፍሬ ያደርጋል።

¹⁶ By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?

¹⁸መልካም ዛፍ ክፉ ፍሬ ማፍራት፥ ወይም ክፉ ዛፍ መልካም ፍሬ ማፍራት አይቻለውም።

¹⁷ Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.

¹⁹መልካም ፍሬ የማያደርግ ዛፍ ሁሉ ይቆረጣል ወደ እሳትም ይጣላል።

¹⁸ A good tree can’t produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.

²⁰ስለዚህም ከፍሬያቸው ታውቋቸዋላችሁ።

¹⁹ Every tree that doesn’t grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.

²¹በሰማያት ያለውን የአባቴን ፈቃድ የሚያደርግ እንጂ፥ ጌታ ሆይ፥ ጌታ ሆይ፥ የሚለኝ ሁሉ መንግሥተ ሰማያት የሚገባ አይደለም።

²⁰ Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

²²በዚያ ቀን ብዙዎች። ጌታ ሆይ፥ ጌታ ሆይ፥ በስምህ ትንቢት አልተናገርንምን፥ በስምህስ አጋንንትን አላወጣንምን፥ በስምህስ ብዙ ተአምራትን አላደረግንምን? ይሉኛል።

²¹ 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.

²³የዚያን ጊዜም። ከቶ አላወቅኋችሁም፤ እናንተ ዓመፀኞች፥ ከእኔ ራቁ ብዬ እመሰክርባቸዋለሁ።

²² Many will tell me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?’

²⁴ስለዚህ ይህን ቃሌን ሰምቶ የሚያደርገው ሁሉ ቤቱን በዓለት ላይ የሠራ ልባም ሰውን ይመስላል።

²³ Then I will tell them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity.’

²⁵ዝናብም ወረደ ጎርፍም መጣ ነፋስም ነፈሰ ያንም ቤት ገፋው፥ በዓለት ላይም ስለ ተመሠረተ አልወደቀም።

²⁴ “Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.

²⁶ይህንም ቃሌን ሰምቶ የማያደርገው ሰው ሁሉ ቤቱን በአሸዋ ላይ የሠራ ሰነፍ ሰውን ይመስላል።

²⁵ The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it didn’t fall, for it was founded on the rock.

²⁷ዝናብም ወረደ ጎርፍም መጣ ነፋስም ነፈሰ ያንም ቤት መታው፥ ወደቀም፥ አወዳደቁም ታላቅ ሆነ።

²⁶ Everyone who hears these words of mine, and doesn’t do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.

²⁸ኢየሱስም ይህን ነገር በጨረሰ ጊዜ ሕዝቡ በትምህርቱ ተገረሙ፤ እንደ ጻፎቻቸው ሳይሆን

²⁷ The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell—and great was its fall.”

²⁹እንደ ባለ ሥልጣን ያስተምራቸው ነበርና።

²⁸It happened, when Jesus had finished saying these things, that the multitudes were astonished at his teaching,

²⁹for he taught them with authority, and not like the scribes.
