Matthew 5

1 When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain and sat down. His disciples came to Him,

1 耶稣看见大群的人，就上了山，并坐下，门徒走到祂跟前，

2 and He began to teach them, saying:

2 祂就开口教导他们，说：

3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

3 “心灵贫穷的人有福了， 因为天国是他们的。

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

4 哀痛的人有福了， 因为他们必得安慰。

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

5 谦和的人有福了， 因为他们必承受土地。

6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

6 切慕公义如饥似渴的人有福了， 因为他们必得饱足。

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

7 心存怜悯的人有福了， 因为他们必蒙怜悯。

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

8 心灵纯洁的人有福了， 因为他们必看见上帝。

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

9 使人和睦的人有福了， 因为他们必被称为上帝的儿女。

10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

10 为义受迫害的人有福了， 因为天国是他们的。

11 Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.

11 “人们若因为我的缘故侮辱、迫害、肆意毁谤你们，你们就有福了。

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

12 要欢喜快乐，因为你们在天上有大赏赐。他们也曾这样迫害以前的先知。

13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.

13 “你们是世上的盐。盐如果失去咸味，怎能使它再变咸呢？它将毫无用处，只会被扔在外面任人践踏。

14 You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.

14 你们是世上的光。建在山上的城无法隐藏。

15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

15 人点亮灯，不会把它放在斗底下，而是放在灯台上，好照亮全家。

16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

16 同样，你们的光也应当照在人面前，好让他们看见你们的善行，便赞美你们天上的父。

17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them.

17 “不要以为我是来废除律法和先知书，我不是来废除，而是来成全。

18 For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

18 我实在告诉你们，就是到天地都消失了，律法的一点一划都不会废除，全都要成就。

19 So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

19 所以，谁违背这些诫命中最小的一条，并教导别人违背，谁在天国将被称为最小的。但谁遵守这些诫命，并教导别人遵守，谁在天国将被称为大的。

20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

20 我告诉你们，你们的义若不胜过律法教师和法利赛人的义，你们绝不能进天国。

21 You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not murder’ and ‘Anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’

21 “你们听过吩咐古人的话，‘不可杀人，杀人的要受审判。’

22 But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ will be subject to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell.

22 但我告诉你们，凡无缘无故 向弟兄发怒的，要受审判；凡骂弟兄是白痴的，要受公会 的审判；凡骂弟兄是笨蛋的，难逃地狱的火。

23 So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,

23 “所以，你在祭坛前献祭的时候，要是想起有弟兄和你有过节，

24 leave your gift there before the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.

24 就该把祭物留在祭坛前，先去跟他和好，然后再来献祭。

25 Reconcile quickly with your adversary, while you are still on the way to court. Otherwise, he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison.

25 “趁着你和告你的人还在去法庭的路上，你要赶紧与对方和解，以免他把你交给审判官，审判官把你交给差役，把你关进监牢。

26 Truly I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.

26 我实在告诉你，要是有一分钱没有还清，你绝不能从那里出来。

27 You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’

27 “你们听过这样的话，‘不可通奸。’

28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

28 但我告诉你们，凡看见妇女就动淫念的，他在心里已经犯了通奸罪。

29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

29 如果你的右眼使你犯罪，就剜掉它！宁可失去身体的一部分，也比整个人被扔进地狱好。

30 And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to depart into hell.

30 如果你的右手使你犯罪，就砍掉它！宁可失去身体的一部分，也比整个人下地狱好。

31 It has also been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’

31 “还有话说，‘人若休妻，必须给她休书’。

32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, brings adultery upon her. And he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

32 但我告诉你们，除非是妻子不贞，否则休妻就是使妻子犯通奸罪，娶被休的女子也是犯通奸罪。

33 Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’

33 “你们也听过吩咐古人的话，‘不可违背誓言，总要向主遵守所起的誓。’

34 But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;

34 但我告诉你们，不可起誓。不可指着天起誓，因为天是上帝的宝座。

35 or by the earth, for it is His footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

35 不可指着地起誓，因为地是上帝的脚凳。不可指着耶路撒冷起誓，因为那是大君王的城。

36 Nor should you swear by your head, for you cannot make a single hair white or black.

36 也不可指着自己的头起誓，因为你不能使一根头发变白或变黑。

37 Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ Anything more comes from the evil one.

37 你们说话，是就说是，不是就说不是，多说的便是来自那恶者 。

38 You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’

38 “你们听过这样的话，‘以眼还眼，以牙还牙。’

39 But I tell you not to resist an evil person. If someone slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also;

39 但我告诉你们，不要跟恶人作对。有人打你的右脸，连左脸也转过来让他打。

40 if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well;

40 有人想控告你，要夺你的内衣，连外衣也给他。

41 and if someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.

41 有人强迫你走一里路，你就跟他走二里路。

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

42 有求你的，就给他；有向你借的，不可拒绝他。

43 You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’ and ‘Hate your enemy.’

43 “你们听过这样的话，‘要爱邻居，恨仇敌。’

44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

44 但我告诉你们，要爱你们的仇敌，为迫害你们的人祷告。

45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

45 这样，你们才是天父的孩子。因为祂让阳光照好人也照坏人，降雨给义人也给恶人。

46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even tax collectors do the same?

46 如果你们只爱那些爱你们的人，有什么值得嘉奖的呢？就是税吏也会这样做。

47 And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even Gentiles do the same?

47 如果你们只问候自己的弟兄，有什么特别呢？就是外族人也会这样做。

48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

48 所以，你们要纯全，正如你们的天父是纯全的。
