1Ayen txeddmem i Sidi Ṛebbi, ur t-id-sbegginet ara iwakken a kkun-walin medden, m'ulac ur tseɛɛum ara lfayda ɣer Baba-twen yellan deg igenwan.
1Take heed not to do your alms before men to be seen of them, otherwise ye have no reward with your Father who is in the heavens.
2M'ara tseddqeḍ, ur țberriḥ ara am akken xeddmen at sin wudmawen di leǧwameɛ neɣ deg iberdan, iwakken ad sɛun ccan ɣer yemdanen. A wen iniɣ tideț : d ayagi kan i d lfayda-nsen.
2When therefore thou doest alms, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may have glory from men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
3Ma d kečč m'ara tseddqeḍ, ilaq afus-ik ayeffus ur ițwali ara wayen ixeddem ufus-ik azelmaḍ ;
3But thou, when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand does;
4iwakken ssadaqa-inek aț-țeqqim di sser, akka ara tețwaqebleḍ ɣer Baba Ṛebbi yețwalin ayen txeddmeḍ di sser.
4so that thine alms may be in secret, and thy Father who sees in secret will render [it] to thee.
5M'ara tețẓallam, ur xeddmet ara am at sin wudmawen iḥemmlen ad ẓallen s ibeddi di leǧwameɛ neɣ deg iberdan iwakken a ten-walin medden. AA wen-iniɣ tideț : d ayagi kan i d lfayda-nsen.
5And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites; for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets so that they should appear to men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6Ma d kečč m'ara tebɣuḍ aț-țẓalleḍ, ṛuḥ ekcem ɣer texxamt-ik, sekkeṛ tawwurt, tedɛuḍ di sser ɣer Baba Ṛebbi, nețța yețwalin ayen yellan di sser, a k-id-iqbel.
6But *thou*, when thou prayest, enter into thy chamber, and having shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret, and thy Father who sees in secret will render [it] to thee.
7M'ara tețẓallam, ur sṭuqqutet ara lehduṛ am akken xeddmen at ddunit, ɣilen s lketṛa n imeslayen ara d țwaqeblen.
7But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as those who are of the nations: for they think they shall be heard through their much speaking.
8Ur ten-țɛanadet ara, axaṭer Baba Ṛebbi yeẓra d acu teḥwaǧem uqbel a s-t-tessutrem.
8Be not ye therefore like them, for your Father knows of what things ye have need before ye beg [anything] of him.
9Atah wamek ilaq aț-țețẓallam : AA Baba-tneɣ yellan deg igenwan, iisem-ik ad ițwaqeddes,
9Thus therefore pray *ye*: Our Father who art in the heavens, let thy name be sanctified,
10lḥekma n tgeldit-ik a d-tass, llebɣi-k ad idṛu di lqaɛa aakken yedṛa deg igenwan.
10let thy kingdom come, let thy will be done as in heaven so upon the earth;
11Efk-aɣ-d mkul ass tamɛict-nneɣ.
11give us to-day our needed bread,
12Semmeḥ-aɣ ddnubat-nneɣ aakken i nețsamaḥ i wid i ɣ-iḍelmen.
12and forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors,
13Ssebɛed fell-aɣ ajeṛṛeb, ssellek-aɣ si tḥila n Cciṭan. AAxaṭer ɣuṛ-ek i tella tgeldit, ttazmert d lɛaḍima i dayem. Amin !
13and lead us not into temptation, but save us from evil.
14Ma yella tețsamaḥem i yemdanen ii wen-ixeddmen cceṛ, Baba Ṛebbi yyellan deg igenwan a wen-isameḥ uula i kunwi.
14For if ye forgive men their offences, your heavenly Father also will forgive you [yours],
15Lameɛna ma yella kkunwi ur tețsamaḥem ara i wiyaḍ, aatan Baba Ṛebbi ur a wen-ițsamaḥ aara ula i kunwi ddnubat-nwen.
15but if ye do not forgive men their offences, neither will your Father forgive your offences.
16Asmi ara tuẓummem, ur d tesbegginet ara iman-nwen tḥeznem am at sin wudmawen issexsaṛen udmawen-nsen iwakken a ten-țwalin yemdanen belli uẓamen. A wen-iniɣ tideț : d ayagi kan i d lfayda-nsen.
16And when ye fast, be not as the hypocrites, downcast in countenance; for they disfigure their faces, so that they may appear fasting to men: verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
17Ma d kečč, m'ara tuẓumeḍ, ssired udem-ik, tdehneḍ aqeṛṛuy-ik s rriḥa,
17But *thou*, [when] fasting, anoint thy head and wash thy face,
18iwakken yiwen ur k-iɛeqqel belli tuẓameḍ. Ilaq ayagi ad iqqim gar-ak d Baba Ṛebbi ițwalin ayen yellan di sser, nețța a k-id-iqbel.
18so that thou mayest not appear fasting unto men, but to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father who sees in secret shall render [it] to thee.
19Ur ssexzanet ara igerrujen di ddunit anda ara ten-yečč ubeɛɛuc d ṣṣdiḍ, anda ara ten-akren wid ifettken leḥyuḍ.
19Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust spoils, and where thieves dig through and steal;
20Meɛna sxeznet axiṛ igerrujen deg igenwan anda ur llin ibeɛɛac d ṣṣdiḍ isserkuyen, anda ur zmiren ara imakaren ad fetken neɣ ad akren.
20but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust spoils, and where thieves do not dig through nor steal;
21Axaṭer anda yella ugerruj-ik, dinna ara yili wul-ik.
21for where thy treasure is, there will be also thy heart.
22Allen, ț-țiftilin n lǧețța, ma yella seḥḥant wallen-ik, aț-țilliḍ s lekmal-ik di tafat.
22The lamp of the body is the eye; if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body will be light:
23Lameɛna, ma yella allen-ik ur seḥḥant ara, aț-țiliḍ di ṭṭlam. Ma yella dɣa allen-ik ur seḥḥant ara, tafat yellan deg-k d ṭṭlam, acḥal ihi berrik ṭṭlam i deg telliḍ.
23but if thine eye be wicked, thy whole body will be dark. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great the darkness!
24Ur izmir yiwen ad iqdec ɣef sin imɛellmen deg yiwet n tikkelt. Ma iḥemmel yiwen, ad ikṛeh wayeḍ ; ma yeṭṭef deg yiwen, ad iḥqeṛ wayeḍ. Ur tezmirem ara ihi aț-țɛebdem Ṛebbi akk-d idrimen !
24No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and will love the other, or he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
25Daymi i wen-d-qqaṛeɣ : ur țḥebbiṛet ara i tudert-nwen, ɣef wayen ara teččem d wayen ara teswem akk-d wayen ara telsem. Acu i gesɛan azal, ț-țudert neɣ d lqut ? D lǧețța neɣ d llebsa ? Tudert tugar lqut, lǧețța tugar llebsa !
25For this cause I say unto you, Do not be careful about your life, what ye should eat and what ye should drink; nor for your body what ye should put on. Is not the life more than food, and the body than raiment?
26Walit igṭaṭ ( ifṛax ) deg igenwan : ur zerrɛen, ur meggren, ur jemmɛen ula d acemma ɣer ikuffan, meɛna Baba-twen yellan deg igenwan, yețțak-asen-d tamɛict-nsen. Eɛni ur teswim ara akteṛ n yefṛax ?
26Look at the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, nor reap, nor gather into granaries, and your heavenly Father nourishes them. Are *ye* not much more excellent than they?
27Anwa i gzemren s uḥebbeṛ, ad yernu kra n wussan i leɛmeṛ-is ?
27But which of you by carefulness can add to his growth one cubit?
28Iwacu ara tḥebbṛem ɣef llebsa ? Walit amek i gemmun ijeǧǧigen n lexla : ur zeṭṭen, ur țellmen,
28And why are ye careful about clothing? Observe with attention the lilies of the field, how they grow: they toil not, neither do they spin;
29lameɛna a wen-iniɣ : ula d agellid Sliman s yiman-is di ccan-is ameqqran, ur yelsi am yiwen seg-sen.
29but I say unto you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed as one of these.
30Ma yella Ṛebbi islusuy akka leḥcic yellan di lexla ass-agi, azekka ad ițwadeggeṛ ɣer tmes, amek ur kkun-islusu ara ula d kunwi ay imdanen ixuṣṣen di liman ?
30But if God so clothe the herbage of the field, which is to-day, and to-morrow is cast into [the] oven, will he not much rather you, O [ye] of little faith?
31Kkset anezgum i yiman-nwen, ur qqaṛet ara : d acu ara nečč, d acu ara nsew neɣ d acu ara nels ?
31Be not therefore careful, saying, What shall we eat? or What shall we drink? or What shall we put on?
32Axaṭer ayagi d imejhal i gețḥebbiṛen fell-as. Ma d Baba-twen yellan deg igenwan, yeẓra ayen akk teḥwaǧem !
32for all these things the nations seek after; for your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these things.
33Nadit uqbel ɣef tgeldit n Sidi Ṛebbi d wayen yellan d lḥeqq, ayen nniḍen meṛṛa d nețța ara wen-t-id yefken.
33But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.
34Ur țḥebbiṛet ara ihi i uzekka, axaṭer azekka s unezgum-is weḥd-es. Yal ass s leɛtab-ines !
34Be not careful therefore for the morrow, for the morrow shall be careful about itself. Sufficient to the day [is] its own evil.
