1 Bi Yeesu gisee mbooloo ma nag, mu yéeg ca tund wa, toog; taalibeem ya ñëw ci moom.
1And having seen the multitudes, he went up to the mount, and he having sat down, his disciples came to him,
2 Mu daldi leen jàngal naan:
2and having opened his mouth, he was teaching them, saying:
3 «Yéen ñi xam seen ñàkk doole ngir neex Yàlla,barkeel ngeen,ndaxte nguuru Yàlla Aji Kawe ji,yéena ko yelloo.
3`Happy the poor in spirit — because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
4 Yéen ñi nekk ci naqar, barkeel ngeen,ndax dees na dëfël seen xol.
4`Happy the mourning — because they shall be comforted.
5 Yéen ñi lewet, barkeel ngeen,ndax dingeen moomi àddina.
5`Happy the meek — because they shall inherit the land.
6 Yéen ñi xiif te mar njub, barkeel ngeen,ndax dingeen regg.
6`Happy those hungering and thirsting for righteousness — because they shall be filled.
7 Yéen ñi am yërmande, barkeel ngeen,ndax dees na leen yërëm.
7`Happy the kind — because they shall find kindness.
8 Yéen ñi am xol bu sell, barkeel ngeen,ndax dingeen gis Yàlla.
8`Happy the clean in heart — because they shall see God.
9 Yéen ñiy wut jàmm, barkeel ngeen,ndax dees na leen tudde doomi Yàlla.
9`Happy the peacemakers — because they shall be called Sons of God.
10 Yéen ñi ñu fitnaal ndax seen njub,barkeel ngeen,ndaxte nguuru Yàlla Aji Kawe ji,yéena ko yelloo.
10`Happy those persecuted for righteousness` sake — because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
11 «Barkeel ngeen, bu ñu leen di saaga, di leen fitnaal, di leen sosal lépp lu bon ngir man.
11`Happy are ye whenever they may reproach you, and may persecute, and may say any evil thing against you falsely for my sake —
12 Bégleen te bànneexu, ndax seen yool dina réy ci laaxira. Ndaxte noonu lañu daan fitnaale yonent yi fi jiitu.
12rejoice ye and be glad, because your reward [is] great in the heavens, for thus did they persecute the prophets who were before you.
13 «Yéena di xoromus àddina. Bu xorom si sàppee, nan lañu koy delloo cafkaam? Du jariñati dara, lu dul ñu sànni ko ci biti, nit ñi dox ci kawam.
13`Ye are the salt of the land, but if the salt may lose savour, in what shall it be salted? for nothing is it good henceforth, except to be cast without, and to be trodden down by men.
14 Yéena di leeru àddina. Dëkk, bu nekk ci kaw tund du man a nëbbu.
14`Ye are the light of the world, a city set upon a mount is not able to be hid;
15 Te it duñu taal làmp, dëpp cig leget, waaye dañu koy wékk, ba muy leeral ñi nekk ci kër gi ñépp.
15nor do they light a lamp, and put it under the measure, but on the lamp-stand, and it shineth to all those in the house;
16 Na seen leer leere noonu ci kanamu nit ñi, ngir ñu gis seeni jëf yu rafet, te màggal seen Baay bi ci kaw.
16so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and may glorify your Father who [is] in the heavens.
17 «Buleen defe ne, ñëw naa ngir dindi yoonu Musaa ak waxi yonent yi. Ñëwuma ngir dindi leen, waaye ngir ñu am ci man.
17`Do not suppose that I came to throw down the law or the prophets — I did not come to throw down, but to fulfill;
18 Ndaxte ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, li feek asamaan ak suuf wéyul, benn tomb walla benn rëddu araf du wéy mukk ci yoonu Musaa, ba kera yépp di am.
18for, verily I say to you, till that the heaven and the earth may pass away, one iota or one tittle may not pass away from the law, till that all may come to pass.
19 Ku tebbi nag ba gën a tuuti ci ndigal yii, te ngay jàngal nit ñi noonu, dees na la tudde ki gën a tuuti ci nguuru Yàlla Aji Kawe ji. Waaye ku leen di sàmm, di leen digle, dees na la tudde ku mag ci nguuru Yàlla Aji Kawe ji.
19`Whoever therefore may loose one of these commands — the least — and may teach men so, least he shall be called in the reign of the heavens, but whoever may do and may teach [them], he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.
20 Ndaxte maa ngi leen koy wax, bu seen njubte ëppul njubteg xutbakat ya ak Farisen ya, dungeen tàbbi mukk ci nguuru Yàlla Aji Kawe ji.
20`For I say to you, that if your righteousness may not abound above that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye may not enter to the reign of the heavens.
21 «Dégg ngeen ne, waxoon nañu maam ya ne leen: “Bul rey nit; ku rey nit, yoon dina la dab.”
21`Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not kill, and whoever may kill shall be in danger of the judgment;
22 Waaye man maa ngi leen di wax ne, képp ku mere sa mbokk, dinañu la àtte. Ku wax sa mbokk: “Amoo bopp,” dinañu la àtte ca kureelu àttekat ya. Ku ko wax: “Alku nga,” dinañu la àtte ci safara.
22but I — I say to you, that every one who is angry at his brother without cause, shall be in danger of the judgment, and whoever may say to his brother, Empty fellow! shall be in danger of the sanhedrim, and whoever may say, Rebel! shall be in danger of the gehenna of the fire.
23 Booy yóbbu nag sa sarax ca saraxalukaay ba, te nga fàttaliku foofa ne, sa mbokk am na lu mu la meree,
23`If, therefore, thou mayest bring thy gift to the altar, and there mayest remember that thy brother hath anything against thee,
24 nanga fa bàyyi sa sarax ca kanamu saraxalukaay ba, nga jëkk a dem, juboo ak sa mbokk, ba noppi dellu, joxe sa sarax.
24leave there thy gift before the altar, and go — first be reconciled to thy brother, and then having come bring thy gift.
25 «Gaawal a juboo ak ki lay yóbbu, ngeen layooji, bala ngeen a egg; ngir bañ ki ngay layool jébbal la àttekat ba, kooka jox la alkaati ba, ñu tëj la.
25`Be agreeing with thy opponent quickly, while thou art in the way with him, that the opponent may not deliver thee to the judge, and the judge may deliver thee to the officer, and to prison thou mayest be cast,
26 Ci dëgg maa ngi la koy wax, doo génn foofa mukk te feyuloo dërëm bi ci mujj.
26verily I say to thee, thou mayest not come forth thence till that thou mayest pay the last farthing.
27 «Te it dégg ngeen ne waxoon nañu: “Bul njaaloo.”
27`Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not commit adultery;
28 Waaye man maa ngi leen di wax ne, képp ku xool jigéen, xédd ko, njaaloo nga ak moom ci sa xel.
28but I — I say to you, that every one who is looking on a woman to desire her, did already commit adultery with her in his heart.
29 Bu la sa bëtu ndeyjoor bëggee yóbbe bàkkaar, luqi ko, sànni ko fu sore.
29`But, if thy right eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to gehenna.
30 Ndaxte ñàkk benn ci say cér moo gën ci yaw, ñu sànni sa yaram wépp ci safara. Bu la sa loxol ndeyjoor bëggee yóbbe bàkkaar, dagg ko, sànni ko fu sore. Ndaxte ñàkk benn ci say cér moo gën ci yaw ñu sànni sa yaram wépp ci safara.
30`And, if thy right hand doth cause thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to gehenna.
31 «Waxoon nañu ne: “Ku fase sa jabar, nga bindal ko kayitu pase.”
31`And it was said, That whoever may put away his wife, let him give to her a writing of divorce;
32 Waaye man maa ngi leen di wax ne, ku fase sa jabar te du ci njaaloo, yaa koy tegtal yoonu njaaloo. Te it ku takk jigéen ju ñu fase, njaaloo nga.
32but I — I say to you, that whoever may put away his wife, save for the matter of whoredom, doth make her to commit adultery; and whoever may marry her who hath been put away doth commit adultery.
33 «Dégg ngeen itam ne, waxoon nañu maam ya ne leen: “Bul weddi sa ngiñ, waaye li nga giñ def ko ngir Boroom bi.”
33`Again, ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not swear falsely, but thou shalt pay to the Lord thine oaths;
34 Waaye man maa ngi leen di wax ne, buleen giñ dara; bumu doon ci asamaan, ndaxte moo di jalu Buur Yàlla;
34but I — I say to you, not to swear at all; neither by the heaven, because it is the throne of God,
35 bumu doon ci àddina, ndax moo di tegukaayu tànkam; bumu doon it ci Yerusalem, ndax moo di dëkku Buur bu mag bi.
35nor by the earth, because it is His footstool, nor by Jerusalem, because it is a city of a great king,
36 Bul giñ it ci sa bopp, ndaxte mënuloo weexal mbaa ñuulal benn ci say kawar.
36nor by thy head mayest thou swear, because thou art not able one hair to make white or black;
37 Sa waaw na nekk waaw, sa déedéet na nekk déedéet. Loo ci teg, ci Ibliis la jóge.
37but let your word be, Yes, Yes, No, No, and that which is more than these is of the evil.
38 «Te it dégg ngeen ne, waxoon nañu: “Bët, bët a koy fey; bëñ, bëñ a koy fey.”
38`Ye heard that it was said: Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth;
39 Waaye man maa ngi leen di wax ne, buleen bañ ku leen def lu bon, waaye ku la pes ci sa lexu ndeyjoor, jox ko ba ca des.
39but I — I say to you, not to resist the evil, but whoever shall slap thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other;
40 Ku la bëgg a kalaame, ngir jël sa turki, nga boole ca it sa mbubb mu mag.
40and whoever is willing to take thee to law, and thy coat to take — suffer to him also the cloak.
41 Ku la ga, nga yenul ko doxub benn kilomet, àndal ak moom ñaar.
41`And whoever shall impress thee one mile, go with him two,
42 Mayal ku lay ñaan, te bul jox gannaaw ku lay leb.
42to him who is asking of thee be giving, and him who is willing to borrow from thee thou mayest not turn away.
43 «Dégg ngeen ne, waxoon nañu: “Soppal sa moroom te sib sa bañaale.”
43`Ye heard that it was said: Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and shalt hate thine enemy;
44 Waaye man maa ngi leen di wax ne, soppleen seeni bañaale te ñaanal ñi leen di fitnaal,
44but I — I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those cursing you, do good to those hating you, and pray for those accusing you falsely, and persecuting you,
45 ngir wone ne, yéenay doomi seen Baay bi nekk ci kaw. Ndaxte mu ngi fenkal jantam ci kaw ñu bon ñi ak ñu baax ñi, te muy tawal ñi jub ak ñi jubadi.
45that ye may be sons of your Father in the heavens, because His sun He doth cause to rise on evil and good, and He doth send rain on righteous and unrighteous.
46 Su ngeen soppee ñi leen sopp, ban yool ngeen am? Xanaa juutikat yi duñu def noonu it?
46`For, if ye may love those loving you, what reward have ye? do not also the tax-gatherers the same?
47 Su ngeen nuyoo seeni bokk rekk, lu ngeen def lu doy waar? Xanaa ñi xamul Yàlla duñu def noonu it?
47and if ye may salute your brethren only, what do ye abundant? do not also the tax-gatherers so?
48 Nangeen mat nag, ni seen Baay bi ci kaw mate.
48ye shall therefore be perfect, as your Father who [is] in the heavens is perfect.
