MATEO 5

Erregetza hitzez hots egina: mendiko hitzaldia (5,1—7,29)

Sarrera

1 Jendetza ikusirik, Jesus mendira igo zen. Eseri eta ikasleak hurbildu zitzaizkion.

2 Orduan, honela hasi zitzaien irakasten:

Zoriontasunak

(20-23)

3 «Zorionekoak bihotzez behartsu direnak, haiek baitute Jainkoa errege.t

4 «Zorionekoak negarrez daudenak, haiek baititu Jainkoak kontsolatuko.

5 «Zorionekoak bihotz gozokoakt, haiek baitira jabetuko Jainkoak hitzemandako lurrazt.

6 «Zorionekoak Jainkoaren nahia betetzekot t gose-egarri direnak, haiek baititu Jainkoak aseko.

7 «Zorionekoak errukitsu direnak, haiek baititu Jainkoak erruki izango.t

8 «Zorionekoak bihotz-garbiak, haiek baitute ikusiko Jainkoa.t

9 «Zorionekoak bakegileak, haiek baititu Jainkoak seme-alabatzat hartuko.t

10 «Zorionekoak Jainkoaren nahia betetzeagatikt erasotuakt, haiek baitute Jainkoa errege.
11 «Zorionekoak zuek, niregatik madarikatuko zaituztetenean, erasoka eta gezurrez gaizki-esaka erabiliko zaituztetenean.t

12 Poz zaitezte eta alaitu, handia izango baita zuen saria zeruan; zuen aurreko profetak ere halaxe erabili zituzten.t

Munduarentzat gatz eta argi

(Mk 9,50; Lk 14,34-35)

13 «Zuek zarete munduarentzat gatza. Baina gatza gezatzen bada, nola gazitu berriro? Ez du jadanik ezertarako balio, botatzeko baizik eta jendeak zapaltzeko.
14 «Zuek zarete munduarentzat argia. Ezin daiteke ezkuta mendi gainean dagoen hiria.t 15 Kriseiluat ere ez da pizten ontzipean ipintzeko, argimutilaren gainean baizik, etxeko guztiei argi egitekot.

16 Era berean, zuen argiak denen aurrean egin behar du argi, zuen egintza onak ikusiz, zeruko zuen Aita gorets dezaten.t

Jesus eta legea

20 Hara zer diotsuedan: Jainkoaren nahia lege-maisuek eta fariseuek baino hobeki betetzen ez baduzue, ez zarete sartuko Jainkoaren erreinuan.t

Senideen arteko harremanak

22 Nik, berriz, hau diotsuet: Bere senidearekin haserretzen dena kondenatua izango da; bere anaia iraintzen duena biltzar nagusian kondenatua izango da, eta hitzez mintzen duenat, infernukot sutara kondenatua izango da.
23 «Beraz, aldarean zeure oparia eskaintzerakoan, zure senideak zure kontra zerbait baduela gogoratzen bazaizu,

24 utzi oparia han, aldare aurrean, eta zoaz lehenbizi senidearekin bakeak egitera; itzuli gero zeure oparia eskaintzera.t
25 «Konpon zaitez lehenbailehen zeure etsaiarekin, berarekin auzitegira zoazen bitartean; bestela, epailearen eskuetan jarriko zaitu eta epaileak ertzainaren eskuetan, eta kartzelara botako zaituzte.t

26 Benetan diotsut: Ez zara handik aterako azken txanpona ordaindu arte.

Adulterioa eta dibortzioa

(18,8-9; 19,7-9; Mk 9,43-47; 10,4-5.10-12; Lk 16,18)

28 Nik, berriz, hau diotsuet: Emakume ezkondu bati irrikaz begiratzen dionak, egin du jadanik adulterioa bere bihotzean.
29 «Eskuineko begia galbidet bazaizut, atera eta bota zeuregandik urruti: hobe duzu gorputz-atal bat galdu, oso-osorik infernura jaurtia izan baino.

30 Eskuineko eskua galbide bazaizu, moztu eta bota zeuregandik urruti: hobe duzu gorputz-atal bat galdu, oso-osorik infernura joan baino.
31 «Legeak agindua du beste hau ere: Bere emaztea uzten duenak eman diezaiola dibortzio-agiria.t

32 Nik, berriz, hau diotsuet: Bere emaztea uzten duenak —legearen kontrat elkartuak ez badira behintzatt— adulteriora bultzatzen du emaztea; eta utzitako emakume horrekin ezkontzen denak adulterio egiten du.

Zinak

37 Esan ezazue “bai”, bai denean, eta “ez”, ez deneant; gainerakoa gaiztoarengandik dator.t

Mendekua

(Lk 6,29-30)

42 Eskatzen dizunari eman, eta dirua uzteko eskatzen dizunari ez ukatu.

Etsaiak maitatu

(Lk 6,27-28.32-36)

Matthew 5

The Beatitudes

1 Whent he saw the crowds, he went up the mountain.ts After he sat down his disciples came to him.

2 Thent he began to teacht them by saying:

3 “Blesseds are the poor in spirit,s for the kingdom of heaven belongss to them.

4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.s

5 “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

6 “Blessed are those who hungers and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.

7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the childrent of God.

10 “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.
11 “Blessed are you when peoplet insult you and persecute you and say all kinds of evil things about you falselys on account of me.

12 Rejoice and be glad because your reward is great in heaven, for they persecuted the prophets before you in the same way.

Salt and Light

13 “You are the salts of the earth. But if salt loses its flavor,s how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled on by people.14 You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill cannot be hidden.15 Peoplet do not light a lamp and put it under a baskett but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.

16 In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they can see your good deeds and give honor to your Father in heaven.

Fulfillment of the Law and Prophets

17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have not come to abolish these things but to fulfill them.t18 It tell you the truth,t until heaven and earth pass away not the smallest letter or stroke of a letterts will pass from the law until everything takes place.19 So anyone who breaks one of the least of these commands and teaches otherst to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever obeys them and teaches others to do so will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness goes beyond that of the experts in the lawt and the Pharisees,s you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

Anger and Murder

21 “You have heard that it was said to an older generation,t ‘Do not murder,’s and ‘whoever murders will be subjected to judgment.’22 But I say to you that anyone who is angry with a brothers will be subjected to judgment. And whoever insultst a brother will be brought beforet the council,t and whoever says ‘Fool’t will be sentt to fiery hell.ts23 So then, if you bring your gift to the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,24 leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother and then come and present your gift.25 Reach agreementt quickly with your accuser while on the way to court,t or het may hand you over to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the warden, and you will be thrown into prison.

26 I tell you the truth,t you will never get out of there until you have paid the last penny!ts

Adultery

27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’s28 But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to desire her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.29 If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away! It is better to lose one of your members than to have your whole body thrown into hell.s

30 If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away! It is better to lose one of your members than to have your whole body go into hell.

Divorce

31 “It was said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife must give her a legal document.’s

32 But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for immorality, makes her commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Oaths

33 “Again, you have heard that it was said to an older generation,t ‘Do not break an oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’s34 But I say to you, do not take oaths at all – not by heaven, because it is the throne of God,35 not by earth, because it is his footstool, and not by Jerusalem,s because it is the city of the great King.36 Do not take an oath by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black.

37 Let your word be ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no.’ More than this is from the evil one.t

Retaliation

38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’s39 But I say to you, do not resist the evildoer.t But whoever strikes you on thes right cheek, turn the other to him as well.40 And if someone wants to sue you and to take your tunic,t give him your coat also.41 And if anyone forces you to go one mile,s go with him two.

42 Give to the one who asks you,s and do not rejectt the one who wants to borrow from you.

Love for Enemies

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’s and ‘hate your enemy.’44 But I say to you, love your enemy ands pray for those who persecute you,45 so that you may be liket your Father in heaven, since he causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Even the tax collectorss do the same, don’t they?47 And if you only greet your brothers, what more do you do? Even the Gentiles do the same, don’t they?

48 So then, be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.s
