1Meanwhile, when a multitude of many thousands had gathered together, so much so that they trampled on each other, he began to tell his disciples first of all, “Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2Kra n wayen iɣummen a d-iban, kra n wayen yeffren ad yemẓer.
2 But there is nothing covered up, that will not be revealed, nor hidden, that will not be known.
3Ayen i thedṛem di ṭṭlam a t-slen di tafat, ayen i tennam ɣer umeẓẓuɣ di texxamt ad ițțuberreḥ deg yizenqan.
3 Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.
4A wen-d-iniɣ i kunwi yellan d iḥbiben-iw : ur țțagadet ara wid ineqqen lǧețța, sennig lmut ur zmiren ad xedmen acemma nniḍen.
4 “I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5A wen-d-iniɣ anwa i glaq aț- țaaggadem : aggadet win izemren a kkun-ikkes si ddunit yerna a kkun-iḍeggeṛ ɣer ǧahennama. Atan nniɣ-awen-t-id, d nețța i glaq aț- țaggadem.
5 But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him, who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. or, Hell Yes, I tell you, fear him.
6D acu i swan xemsa iẓiwcen ? Anaɣ sin iṣurdiyen kan ! Lameɛna Sidi Ṛebbi ur itețțu ula d yiwen deg-sen.
6 “Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria coins An assarion was a small copper coin worth about an hour’s wages for an agricultural laborer. ? Not one of them is forgotten by God.
7Ula d anẓaden n iqeṛṛay-nwen țwaḥesben yiwen yiwen. Ur țțagadet ara ihi, teswam akteṛ n iẓiwcen.
7 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
8A wen-d-iniɣ : kra n win ara d-icehden zdat yemdanen belli yumen yis-i, Mmi-s n bunadem ur t-inekkeṛ ara zdat lmalayekkat,
8 “I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, him will the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God;
9ma d win ara yi-nekṛen zdat yemdanen, ula d nekk a t-nekkṛeɣ zdat lmalayekkat n Ṛebbi.
9 but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of the angels of God.
10Kra n win ara yewten di Mmi-s n bunadem a s-ițusemmeḥ, ma d win ara iregmen Ṛṛuḥ iqedsen ulac fell-as ssmaḥ.
10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
11M'ara kkun-awin ad ḥekmen fell-awen di leǧwameɛ zdat lecyux d lḥekkam, ur țxemmimet ara amek ara tsellkem iman-nwen neɣ ɣef wayen ara d-tinim,
11 When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer, or what you will say;
12axaṭer d Ṛṛuḥ iqedsen ara wen-d-ifken di teswiɛt-nni ayen ilaqen a t-id-tinim.
12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you must say.”
13Yiwen wergaz inṭeq-ed si ger n lɣaci yenna i Sidna Ɛisa : A Sidi, ini-yas i gma ad ibḍu yid-i lweṛt i d-iǧǧa baba-tneɣ.
13One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14Sidna Ɛisa yerra-yas : Ay argaz, anwa i yi-sbedden iwakken ad bḍuɣ gar-awen ?
14But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”
15Dɣa yenna i lɣaci : ?adret iman-nwen ɣef ṭṭmeɛ imi tudert n wemdan ur d-tekki ara seg wayen yesɛa ɣas akken di rrbeḥ ameqqran i gella.
15He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
16Imiren yewwi-yasen-d lemtel agi : Yiwen umeṛkanti, yesɛa tamurt tefka-d aṭas n lɣella.
16He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly.
17Ixemmem deg iman-is, yenna : « amek ara xedmeɣ imi ur sɛiɣ ara amkan anda ara jemɛeɣ leṛẓaq-iw ?
17 He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’
18Ad huddeɣ ikuffan-iw, ad bnuɣ wiyaḍ d imeqqranen iwakken ad jemɛeɣ irden-iw d leṛẓaq-iw meṛṛa.
18 He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19Imiren ad iniɣ i yiman-iw : « atan tesxezneḍ leṛẓaq i waṭas n iseggasen ; steɛfu tura, ečč, sew tezhuḍ. »
19 I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.”’
20Lameɛna Sidi Ṛebbi yenna yas-d : « a win iɣeflen ! Iḍ-agi ad a k-ddmeɣ ṛṛuḥ-ik ! Ayen meṛṛa i tjemɛeḍ, iwumi ara d-yeqqim ? »
20 “But God said to him, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared—whose will they be?’
21Akka i tdeṛṛu d win ijemɛen leṛẓaq i yiman-is, wala ad ixdem ɣef laxeṛt-is, ad yili d ameṛkanti ɣer Ṛebbi.
21 So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”
22Sidna Ɛisa yenna daɣen i yinelmaden-is : ?ef wayagi i wen-d-qqaṛeɣ ur țḥebbiṛet ara ɣef tudert-nwen, ɣef wayen ara teččem d wayen ara telsem.
22He said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear.
23Axaṭer tudert-nwen tugar lqut, lǧețța-nwen tugar llebsa.
23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
24Walit tigerfiwin , ur zerrɛent ur meggrent , ur sɛint akufi ur sɛint acbayli meɛna Sidi Ṛebbi ițɛeyyic itent. Acḥal teswam akteṛ n yefṛax n igenni !
24 Consider the ravens: they don’t sow, they don’t reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds!
25Anwa deg-wen i gzemren s uḥebbeṛ ad yessiɣzef leɛmeṛ-is ula s yiwen n wass ?
25 Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height?
26Imi ur tezmirem ara i tɣawsiwin timecṭuḥin, acuɣeṛ i tețḥebbiṛem ɣef wayen nniḍen ?
26 If then you aren’t able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest?
27Walit amek gemmun ijeǧǧigen n lexla ! Ur țellmen ur ẓeṭṭen ! Atan qqaṛeɣ-awen : ula d agellid Sliman s yiman-is di ccan-is, ur yelsi am yiwen seg yijeǧǧigen-agi.
27 Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28Ma yella Sidi Ṛebbi yeslusu akka leḥcic yellan ass-agi di lexla, azekka ad iṛeɣ di tmes, amek ur kkun-islusu ara kunwi, ay imdanen ixuṣṣen di liman !
28 But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?
29Ur țḥebbiṛet ara ihi ! Ur țqellibet ara ɣef wayen ara teččem d wayen ara teswem,
29 Don’t seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious.
30axaṭer d imdanen ur nețțamen ara s Ṛebbi i gețqelliben ɣef wayagi meṛṛa. Baba-twen yellan deg yigenwan yeẓra ayen teḥwaǧem.
30 For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things.
31Qellbet axiṛ ɣef tgeldit n Ṛebbi, ayen nniḍen meṛṛa d nețța ara wen-t-id ifken.
31 But seek God’s Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you.
32Ur țțagad ara a taqeḍɛit illan tamecṭuḥt, axaṭer iɛǧeb-as i Baba Ṛebbi a wen-d-yefk tageldit-is.
32 Don’t be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.
33Zzenzet ayen tesɛam, tsedqem-t. Heggit i yiman-nwen deg yigenwan agerruj ur nkeffu, ur nrekku, dinna ulac imakaren ara t-yakren, ulac ibeɛɛac ara t-iččen.
33 Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don’t grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn’t fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys.
34Axaṭer anda yella ugerruj-ik, dinna ara yili wul-ik.
34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35Heggit iman-nwen, ɛiwzet, beggset ɣef yiman-nwen tceɛlem tiftilin-nwen !
35 “Let your waist be dressed and your lamps burning.
36Ilit am wid yețṛaǧun amɛellem nsen ara d-yuɣalen si tmeɣṛa ; akken kan ara d-yesqeṛbeb a s-ldin tawwurt.
36 Be like men watching for their lord, when he returns from the marriage feast; that, when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.
37Amarezg n yiqeddacen-agi ara d-yaf wemɛellem-nsen ɛawzen. A wen-d iniɣ tideț, ad ibeddel llebsa, a ten isɣim ɣer ṭṭabla iwakken a sen-yefk ad ččen.
37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you, that he will dress himself, and make them recline, and will come and serve them.
38Ma yewweḍ-ed di țnaṣfa n yiḍ neɣ akteṛ, amarezg-nsen ma yufa-ten-id mazal țṛaǧun-t !
38 They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch, and finds them so.
39Fehmet ayagi : lemmer yeẓra bab n wexxam lweqt i deg ara d-yas umakar, tili a t-iɛass ur t-ițțaǧa ara ad ikcem axxam-is.
39 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not allowed his house to be broken into.
40Heggit iman-nwen ula d kunwi imi di lweqt i ɣef ur tebnim (tedmim) ara a d-yas Mmi-s n bunadem.
40 Therefore be ready also, for the Son of Man is coming in an hour that you don’t expect him.”
41Buṭrus inṭeq yenna-yas : A Sidi, i nukkni iwumi d-tenniḍ lemtel-agi neɣ i lɣaci meṛṛa ?
41Peter said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everybody?”
42Sidna Ɛisa yerra-yas : Anwa i d lewkil iḥeṛcen i ɣef yella lețkal, ara iwekkel bab n wexxam ɣef wayla-s, iwakken ad ifṛeq i yiqeddacen amur-nsen n yirden di lweqt ilaqen ?
42The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?
43Amarezg n wuqeddac agi ara d-yaf bab-is ibedd ɣer cceɣl-is !
43 Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.
44A wen-d-iniɣ tideț, a t iwekkel ɣef wayen akk yesɛa.
44 Truly I tell you, that he will set him over all that he has.
45Lameɛna aqeddac-nni ma yeqqaṛ deg wul-is : « amɛellem-iw iɛeṭṭel ur d yuɣal ara» ! Yebda iḥeqqeṛ iqeddacen ț-țqeddacin, yekkat-iten, iteț itess alamma yeskkeṛ.
45 But if that servant says in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken,
46A d-yas umɛellem-is deg wass i ɣef ur yebni ara, di lweqt ur yessin ara, a t-iɛaqeb s lmut akken țțuɛaqben wid iɛuṣan Ṛebbi.
46 then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he isn’t expecting him, and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.
47Aqeddac yessnen lebɣi n bab-is yerna ur t-ixdim ara, ad yečč tiɣṛit tameqqrant,
47 That servant, who knew his lord’s will, and didn’t prepare, nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,
48ma d win ur nessin ara lebɣi n bab-is, ixdem ayen yuklalen tiɣṛit, ad yečč tiɣṛit tamecṭuḥt. Win iwumi nefka aṭas a s-nessuter aṭas, ma d win i ɣef nețkel aṭas a neṛǧu deg-s akteṛ.
48 but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.
49Usiɣ-ed a d-awiɣ yiwet n tmes ɣer ddunit ! Acḥal ɣeṣbeɣ melmi ara tecɛel !
49 “I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.
50Yella yiwen n weɣḍas i yi-țṛaǧun... D leɛtab ameqqran yerna ɣeṣbeɣ melmi ara d-yas wass-nni !
50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
51Tɣilem d lehna i d-wwiɣ ɣer ddunit ? Xaṭi, d beṭṭu i d-wwiɣ !
51 Do you think that I have come to give peace in the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.
52Sya ɣer zdat ma llan xemsa deg yiwen wexxam, ad bḍun ; tlata a d-kkren ɣer sin, sin a d-kkren ɣer tlata.
52 For from now on, there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53Ababat a d-innaɣ d mmi-s, mmi-s a d-yekker ɣer baba-s ; tayemmaț aț-țennaɣ d yelli-s, yelli-s akk-d yemma-s ; tamɣaṛt aț-țennaɣ ț-țeslit-is, tislit akk-d temɣaṛt-is.
53 They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother; mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.” Micah 7:6
54Sidna Ɛisa yenna daɣen i lɣaci : M'ara twalim asigna yekka-d si lɣeṛb, teqqaṛem atan a d-tewwet lehwa ; d ayen i gdeṛṛun.
54 He said to the multitudes also, “When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it happens.
55M'ara d-iṣuḍ waḍu seg usammer teqqaṛem ad iḥmu lḥal ; d ayen i d-ideṛṛun daɣen.
55 When a south wind blows, you say, ‘There will be a scorching heat,’ and it happens.
56Ay at sin wudmawen ! Imi tessnem aț-țɛeqlem lḥal n yigenni d lqaɛa, amek ur tezmirem ara aț-țɛeqlem zzman-agi ?
56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you don’t interpret this time?
57Acuɣeṛ ur tețmeyyizem ara s yiman-nwen ɣef wayen yellan d lḥeqq ?
57 Why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?

58 For when you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, try diligently on the way to be released from him, lest perhaps he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.
59A k-d-iniɣ : ur d-tețțeffɣeḍ ara syenna alamma txellṣeḍ aṣurdi aneggaru n ṭlaba-inek.
59 I tell you, you will by no means get out of there, until you have paid the very last penny. literally, lepton. A lepton is a very small brass Jewish coin worth half a Roman quadrans each, which is worth a quarter of the copper assarion. Lepta are worth less than 1% of an agricultural worker’s daily wages. ”
