马太福音 5

山上宝训

1 耶稣看见这一群人,就上了山,坐下后,门徒到他跟前来, 2 他开口教导他们说:

论福

(路6.20-23)

3 “心灵贫穷的人有福了! 因为天国是他们的。

4 哀恸的人有福了! 因为他们必得安慰。

5 谦和的人有福了! 因为他们必承受土地。

6 饥渴慕义的人有福了! 因为他们必得饱足。

7 怜悯人的人有福了! 因为他们必蒙怜悯。

8 清心的人有福了! 因为他们必得见上帝。

9 缔造和平的人有福了! 因为他们必称为上帝的儿子。

10 为义受迫害的人有福了! 因为天国是他们的。

11 “人若因我辱骂你们,迫害你们,捏造各样坏话毁谤你们t,你们就有福了! 12 要欢喜快乐,因为你们在天上的赏赐是很多的。在你们以前的先知,人也是这样迫害他们。”

盐和光

(可9.50;路14.34-35)

13 “你们是地上的盐。盐若失了味,怎能叫它再咸呢?它不再有用,只好被丢在外面,任人践踏。 14 你们是世上的光。城造在山上是不能隐藏的。 15 人点灯,不放在斗底下,而是放在灯台上,就照亮一家的人。 16 你们的光也要这样照在人前,叫他们看见你们的好行为,把荣耀归给你们在天上的父。”

论律法

17 “不要以为我来是要废掉律法和先知。我来不是要废掉,而是要成全。 18 我实在告诉你们,就是到天地都废去,律法的一点一画也不能废去,直到一切都实现。 19 所以,无论谁废掉这诫命中最小的一条,又教导人也这样做,他在天国里要称为最小的。但无论谁遵行并如此教导人的,他在天国里要称为大。 20 我告诉你们,你们的义若不胜过文士和法利赛人的义,绝不能进天国。”

论发怒

21 “你们听过有对古人说:‘不可杀人’;‘凡杀人的,必须受审判。’ 22 但是我告诉你们:凡向弟兄动怒的,必须受审判;凡骂弟兄是废物的,必须受议会的审判;凡骂弟兄是白痴的,必须遭受地狱的火。 23 所以,你在祭坛上献祭物的时候,若想起有弟兄对你怀恨, 24 就要把祭物留在坛前,先去跟弟兄和好,然后来献祭物。 25 你同告你的冤家还在路上,就要赶快与他讲和,免得他把你送交给法官,法官交给警卫,你就下在监里了。 26 我实在告诉你,就是有一个大文钱t还没有还清,你也绝不能从那里出来。”

论奸淫

27 “你们听过有话说:‘不可奸淫。’ 28 但是我告诉你们:凡看见妇女就动淫念的,这人心里已经与她犯奸淫了。 29 若是你的右眼使你跌倒,就把它挖出来,丢掉。宁可失去身体中的一部分,也不让整个身体被扔进地狱。 30 若是你的右手使你跌倒,就把它砍下来,丢掉。宁可失去身体中的一部分,也不让整个身体下地狱。”

论休妻

(太19.9;可10.11-12;路16.18)

31 “又有话说:‘无论谁休妻,都要给她休书。’ 32 但是我告诉你们:凡休妻的,除非是因不贞的缘故,否则就是使她犯奸淫了;人若娶被休的妇人,也是犯奸淫了。”

论起誓

33 “你们又听过有对古人说:‘不可背誓,所起的誓总要向主谨守。’ 34 但是我告诉你们:什么誓都不可起。不可指着天起誓,因为天是上帝的宝座。 35 不可指着地起誓,因为地是他的脚凳;也不可指着耶路撒冷起誓,因为耶路撒冷是大君王的京城。 36 又不可指着你的头起誓,因为你不能使一根头发变黑变白。 37 你们的话,是,就说是;不是,就说不是。若再多说,就是出于那恶者。”

论报复

(路6.29-30)

38 “你们听过有话说:‘以眼还眼,以牙还牙。’ 39 但是我告诉你们:不要与恶人作对。有人打你的右脸,连另一边也转过去由他打。 40 有人想要告你,要拿你的里衣,连外衣也由他拿去。 41 有人强迫你走一里t路,你就跟他走二里。 42 有求你的,就给他;有向你借贷的,不可推辞。”

论爱仇敌

(路6.27-28,32-36)

43 “你们听过有话说:‘要爱你的邻舍,恨你的仇敌。’ 44 但是我告诉你们:要爱你们的仇敌,为那迫害你们的祷告。 45 这样,你们就可以作天父的儿女了。因为他叫太阳照好人,也照坏人;降雨给义人,也给不义的人。 46 你们若只爱那爱你们的人,有什么赏赐呢?就是税吏不也是这样做吗? 47 你们若只请你弟兄的安,有什么比别人强呢?就是外邦人不也是这样做吗? 48 所以,你们要完全,如同你们的天父是完全的。”

MATTHEW 5

The Sermon on the Mount

1 When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on the side of a mountain and sat down.t

Blessings

(Luke 6.20-23)


Jesus' disciples gathered around him,

2 and he taught them:

3 God blesses those people
who depend only on him.
They belong to the kingdom
of heaven!t

4  t God blesses those people
who grieve.
They will find comfort!

5  t God blesses those people
who are humble.
The earth will belong
to them!

6  t God blesses those people
who want to obey himt
more than to eat or drink.
They will be given
what they want!

7 God blesses those people
who are merciful.
They will be treated
with mercy!

8  t God blesses those people
whose hearts are pure.
They will see him!

9 God blesses those people
who make peace.
They will be called
his children!

10  t God blesses those people
who are treated badly
for doing right.
They belong to the kingdom
of heaven.t
11  t God will bless you when people insult you, mistreat you, and tell all kinds of evil lies about you because of me.

12 t Be happy and excited! You will have a great reward in heaven. People did these same things to the prophets who lived long ago.

Salt and Light

(Mark 9.50; Luke 14.34,35)


13  t You are the salt for everyone on earth. But if salt no longer tastes like salt, how can it make food salty? All it is good for is to be thrown out and walked on.
14  t You are the light for the whole world. A city built on top of a hill cannot be hidden, 15 t and no one lights a lamp and puts it under a clay pot. Instead, it is placed on a lampstand, where it can give light to everyone in the house.

16 t Make your light shine, so others will see the good you do and will praise your Father in heaven.

The Law of Moses


17 Don't suppose I came to do away with the Law and the Prophets.t I did not come to do away with them, but to give them their full meaning.

18 t Heaven and earth may disappear. But I promise you not even a period or comma will ever disappear from the Law. Everything written in it must happen.
19 If you reject even the least important command in the Law and teach others to do the same, you will be the least important person in the kingdom of heaven. But if you obey and teach others its commands, you will have an important place in the kingdom.

20 You must obey God's commands better than the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law obey them. If you don't, I promise you will never get into the kingdom of heaven.

Anger


21  t You know our ancestors were told, “Do not murder” and “A murderer must be brought to trial.”

22 But I promise you if you are angry with someone, t you will have to stand trial. If you call someone a fool, you will be taken to court. And if you say that someone is worthless, you will be in danger of the fires of hell.
23 So if you are about to place your gift on the altar and remember that someone is angry with you,

24 leave your gift there in front of the altar. Make peace with that person, then come back and offer your gift to God.
25 Before you are dragged into court, make friends with the person who has accused you of doing wrong. If you don't, you will be handed over to the judge and then to the officer who will put you in jail.

26 I promise you will not get out until you have paid the last cent you owe.

Marriage


27  t You know the commandment which says, “Be faithful in marriage.” 28 But I tell you if you look at another woman and want her, you are already unfaithful in your thoughts. 29 t If your right eye causes you to sin, poke it out and throw it away. It is better to lose one part of your body, than for your whole body to end up in hell.

30 t If your right hand causes you to sin, chop it off and throw it away! It is better to lose one part of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

Divorce

(Matthew 19.9; Mark 10.11,12; Luke 16.18)


31  t You have been taught that a man who divorces his wife must write out divorce papers for her.t

32 t But I tell you not to divorce your wife unless she has committed some terrible sexual sin.t If you divorce her, you will cause her to be unfaithful, just as any man who marries her is guilty of taking another man's wife.

Promises


33  t You know our ancestors were told, “Don't use the Lord's name to make a promise unless you are going to keep it.” 34 t But I tell you not to swear by anything when you make a promise! Heaven is God's throne, so don't swear by heaven. 35 t The earth is God's footstool, so don't swear by the earth. Jerusalem is the city of the great king, so don't swear by it. 36 Don't swear by your own head. You cannot make one hair white or black.

37 When you make a promise, say only “Yes” or “No.” Anything else comes from the devil.

Revenge

(Luke 6.29,30)


38  t You know you have been taught, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.” 39 But I tell you not to try to get even with a person who has done something to you. When someone slaps your right cheek, t turn and let that person slap your other cheek. 40 If someone sues you for your shirt, give up your coat as well. 41 If a soldier forces you to carry his pack one kilometer , carry it two kilometers .t

42 When people ask you for something, give it to them. When they want to borrow money, lend it to them.

Love

(Luke 6.27,28,32-36)


43  t You have heard people say, “Love your neighbors and hate your enemies.” 44 But I tell you to love your enemies and pray for anyone who mistreats you. 45 t Then you will be acting like your Father in heaven. He makes the sun rise on both good and bad people. And he sends rain for the ones who do right and for the ones who do wrong. 46 If you love only those people who love you, will God reward you for this? Even tax collectorst love their friends. 47 If you greet only your friends, what's so great about this? Don't even unbelievers do that? 48 t But you must always act like your Father in heaven.
