Matthew

19

1And it came to pass when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judaea beyond the Jordan;
1ܘܗܘܐ ܕܟܕ ܫܠܡ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܫܩܠ ܡܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܬܚܘܡܐ ܕܝܗܘܕ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܘܪܕܢܢ ܀
2and great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
2ܘܐܬܘ ܒܬܪܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܘܐܤܝ ܐܢܘܢ ܬܡܢ ܀
3And there came unto him Pharisees, trying him, and saying, Is it lawful [for a man] to put away his wife for every cause?
3ܘܩܪܒܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܡܢܤܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢ ܫܠܝܛ ܠܐܢܫ ܕܢܫܪܐ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܒܟܠ ܥܠܐ ܀
4And he answered and said, Have ye not read, that he who made [them] from the beginning made them male and female,
4ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܕܗܘ ܕܥܒܕ ܡܢ ܒܪܫܝܬ ܕܟܪܐ ܘܢܩܒܬܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܘܢ ܀
5and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?
5ܘܐܡܪ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܢܫܒܘܩ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܡܗ ܘܢܩܦ ܠܐܢܬܬܗ ܘܢܗܘܘܢ ܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܚܕ ܒܤܪ ܀
6So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
6ܡܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܘ ܬܪܝܢ ܐܠܐ ܚܕ ܦܓܪ ܡܕܡ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܙܘܓ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܠܐ ܢܦܪܫ ܀
7They say unto him, Why then did Moses command to give a bill of divorcement, and to put [her] away?
7ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܡܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܘܫܐ ܦܩܕ ܕܢܬܠ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܘܢܫܪܝܗ ܀
8He saith unto them, Moses for your hardness of heart suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it hath not been so.
8ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܘܫܐ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܩܫܝܘܬ ܠܒܟܘܢ ܐܦܤ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܫܪܘܢ ܢܫܝܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܒܪܫܝܬ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܀
9And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her when she is put away committeth adultery.
9ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܕܫܒܩ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܕܠܐ ܓܘܪܐ ܘܢܤܒ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܓܐܪ ܘܡܢ ܕܢܤܒ ܫܒܝܩܬܐ ܓܐܪ ܀
10The disciples say unto him, If the case of the man is so with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.
10ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܥܕܠܝܐ ܒܝܢܝ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܐܢܬܬܐ ܠܐ ܦܩܚ ܠܡܤܒ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܀
11But he said unto them, Not all men can receive this saying, but they to whom it is given.
11ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܤܦܩ ܠܗ ܠܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܢ ܕܝܗܝܒ ܠܗ ܀
12For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
12ܐܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܟܪܤܐ ܕܐܡܗܘܢ ܐܬܝܠܕܘ ܗܟܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܘܘ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܥܒܕܘ ܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܤܦܩ ܢܤܦܩ ܀
13Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should lay his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.
13ܗܝܕܝܢ ܩܪܒܘ ܠܗ ܛܠܝܐ ܕܢܤܝܡ ܐܝܕܗ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܘܢܨܠܐ ܘܟܐܘ ܒܗܘܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܀
14But Jesus said, Suffer the little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for to such belongeth the kingdom of heaven.
14ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܒܘܩܘ ܛܠܝܐ ܐܬܝܢ ܠܘܬܝ ܘܠܐ ܬܟܠܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܝܟ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܀
15And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.
15ܘܤܡ ܐܝܕܗ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܘܐܙܠ ܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܀
16And behold, one came to him and said, Teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
16ܘܐܬܐ ܚܕ ܩܪܒ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܛܒܐ ܡܢܐ ܕܛܒ ܐܥܒܕ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܝ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܀
17And he said unto him, Why askest thou me concerning that which is good? One there is who is good: but if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments.
17ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܢܐ ܩܪܐ ܐܢܬ ܠܝ ܛܒܐ ܠܝܬ ܛܒܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܚܕ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܬ ܕܬܥܘܠ ܠܚܝܐ ܛܪ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܀
18He saith unto him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
18ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܕܠܐ ܬܩܛܘܠ ܘܠܐ ܬܓܘܪ ܘܠܐ ܬܓܢܘܒ ܘܠܐ ܬܤܗܕ ܤܗܕܘܬ ܫܘܩܪܐ ܀
19Honor thy father and mother; and, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
19ܘܝܩܪ ܠܐܒܘܟ ܘܠܐܡܟ ܘܬܚܒ ܠܩܪܝܒܟ ܐܝܟ ܢܦܫܟ ܀
20The young man saith unto him, All these things have I observed: what lack I yet?
20ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܘ ܥܠܝܡܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܢܛܪܬ ܐܢܝܢ ܡܢ ܛܠܝܘܬܝ ܡܢܐ ܚܤܝܪ ܐܢܐ ܀
21Jesus said unto him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell that which thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
21ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܬ ܓܡܝܪܐ ܠܡܗܘܐ ܙܠ ܙܒܢ ܩܢܝܢܟ ܘܗܒ ܠܡܤܟܢܐ ܘܬܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܤܝܡܬܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܘܬܐ ܒܬܪܝ ܀
22But when the young man heard the saying, he went away sorrowful; for he was one that had great possessions.
22ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܗܘ ܥܠܝܡܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܘܐܙܠ ܟܕ ܟܪܝܐ ܠܗ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܓܝܪ ܩܢܝܢܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܀
23And Jesus said unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, It is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
23ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܥܛܠܐ ܗܝ ܠܥܬܝܪܐ ܕܢܥܘܠ ܠܡܠܟܘܬ ܫܡܝܐ ܀
24And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
24ܬܘܒ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܕܠܝܠ ܗܘ ܠܓܡܠܐ ܠܡܥܠ ܒܚܪܘܪܐ ܕܡܚܛܐ ܐܘ ܥܬܝܪܐ ܕܢܥܘܠ ܠܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀
25And when the disciples heard it, they were astonished exceedingly, saying, Who then can be saved?
25ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܬܗܝܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܛܒ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܡܢܘ ܟܝ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܚܐ ܀
26And Jesus looking upon [them] said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
26ܚܪ ܒܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܕܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܐ ܠܘܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܡܫܟܚܐ ܀
27Then answered Peter and said unto him, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee; what then shall we have?
27ܗܝܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܐ ܐܢܚܢܢ ܫܒܩܢ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܘܐܬܝܢ ܒܬܪܟ ܡܢܐ ܟܝ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܀
28And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
28ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܬܝܬܘܢ ܒܬܪܝ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܡܐ ܕܝܬܒ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܥܠ ܬܪܢܘܤ ܕܫܘܒܚܗ ܬܬܒܘܢ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܬܪܥܤܪ ܟܘܪܤܘܢ ܘܬܕܘܢܘܢ ܬܪܥܤܪ ܫܒܛܐ ܕܐܝܤܪܐܝܠ ܀
29And every one that hath left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit eternal life.
29ܘܟܠܢܫ ܕܫܒܩ ܒܬܐ ܐܘ ܐܚܐ ܐܘ ܐܚܘܬܐ ܐܘ ܐܒܐ ܐܘ ܐܡܐ ܐܘ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܘ ܒܢܝܐ ܐܘ ܩܘܪܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܫܡܝ ܚܕ ܒܡܐܐ ܢܩܒܠ ܘܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܢܐܪܬ ܀ 30 ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܝܢ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܐܚܪܝܐ ܘܐܚܪܝܐ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܀
30But many shall be last [that are] first; and first [that are] last.
