rotherham - Matthew:5-7

rotherham@Matthew:5:1 @ But, seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain, and, when he had taken a seat, his disciples came unto him;

rotherham@Matthew:5:2 @ and, opening his mouth, he began teaching them, saying:

rotherham@Matthew:5:3 @ Happy, the destitute, in spirit; for, theirs, is the kingdom of the heavens;

rotherham@Matthew:5:4 @ Happy, they who mourn; for, they, shall be comforted:

rotherham@Matthew:5:5 @ Happy, the meek; for, they, shall inherit the earth:

rotherham@Matthew:5:6 @ Happy, they who hunger and thirst for righteousness; for, they, shall be filled:

rotherham@Matthew:5:7 @ Happy, the merciful; for, they, shall receive mercy:

rotherham@Matthew:5:8 @ Happy, the pure, in heart; for, they, shall, see God:

rotherham@Matthew:5:9 @ Happy, the peacemakers; for, they, shall be, called sons of God:

rotherham@Matthew:5:10 @ Happy, they who have been persecuted for righteousness sake; for, theirs, is the kingdom of the heavens.

rotherham@Matthew:5:11 @ Happy, are ye, whensoever they may reproach you and persecute you, and say every evil thing against you, falsely, for my sake:

rotherham@Matthew:5:12 @ Rejoice and exult, because, your reward, is great in the heavens; for, so, persecuted they the prophets who were before you.

rotherham@Matthew:5:13 @ Ye, are the salt of the earth; but, if the salt become tasteless, wherewith shall it be salted? it is good, for nothing, any more, save, being cast out, to be trampled on by men.

rotherham@Matthew:5:14 @ Ye, are the light of the world: it is impossible for a city to be hid, on the top of a mountain, lying.

rotherham@Matthew:5:15 @ Neither light they a lamp, and place it under the measure; but upon the lampstand, and it giveth light to all that are in the house.

rotherham@Matthew:5:16 @ In like manner, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.

rotherham@Matthew:5:17 @ Do not think, that I came to pull down the law, or the prophets, I came not to pull down, but to fulfil.

rotherham@Matthew:5:18 @ For, verily, I say unto you, until the heaven and the earth shall pass away, one least letter, or one point, may in nowise pass away from the law, till all be accomplished.

rotherham@Matthew:5:19 @ Whosoever, therefore, shall relax one of these commandments, the least, and teach men so, shall be called, least, in the kingdom of the heavens; but, whosoever shall do and teach, the same, shall be called, great, in the kingdom of the heavens.

rotherham@Matthew:5:20 @ For I say unto you, that, unless your righteousness exceed that of the Scribes and Pharisees, in nowise, may ye enter into the kingdom of the heavens.

rotherham@Matthew:5:21 @ Ye have heard, that it was said, to them of olden time, Thou shalt not commit murder, and, whosoever shall commit murder, shall be, liable, to judgment.

rotherham@Matthew:5:22 @ But, I, say unto you, that, every one who is angry with his brother, shall be, liable, to judgment, and, whosoever shall say to his brother, Worthless one!, shall be, liable, to the high council; and, whosoever shall say, Rebel!, shall be, liable, unto the fiery gehenna.

rotherham@Matthew:5:23 @ If, therefore, thou be bearing thy gift towards the altar, and, there, shouldst remember that, thy brother, hath aught against thee,

rotherham@Matthew:5:24 @ leave, there, thy gift before the altar, and withdraw, first, be reconciled unto thy brother, and, then, coming, be offering thy gift.

rotherham@Matthew:5:25 @ Be making agreement with thine adversary, quickly, while thou art with him, in the way, lest once thine adversary deliver thee up unto the judge, and the judge, unto the officer, and, into prison, thou be cast.

rotherham@Matthew:5:26 @ Verily, I say unto thee, In nowise, mayest thou come out from thence, until thou pay the last halfpenny.

rotherham@Matthew:5:27 @ Ye have heard, that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

rotherham@Matthew:5:28 @ But, I, say unto you, that, Every one who looketh on a woman so as to covet her, already, hath committed adultery with her, in his heart.

rotherham@Matthew:5:29 @ And, if, thy right eye, is causing thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee, for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, be cast into gehenna.

rotherham@Matthew:5:30 @ And, if, thy right hand, is causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee, for it profiteth thee, that, one of thy members, should perish, and not, thy whole body, into gehenna, depart.

rotherham@Matthew:5:31 @ It was said, moreover, Whosoever shall divorce his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement;

rotherham@Matthew:5:32 @ But, I, say unto you, that, Everyone who divorceth his wifesaving for unfaithfulness, causeth her to be made an adulteress, and, whosoever shall marry a divorced woman, committeth adultery.

rotherham@Matthew:5:33 @ Again, ye have heard that it was said, to them of olden time, Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt render unto the Lord, thine oaths.

rotherham@Matthew:5:34 @ But, I, tell younot to swear, at all: Neither by heaven, because it is the, throne of God,

rotherham@Matthew:5:35 @ Nor by the earth, because it is his, footstool; nor by Jerusalem, because, it is the, city, of the Great King;

rotherham@Matthew:5:36 @ Nor, by thine own head, mayest thou swear, because thou art not able to make, one hair, white or black.

rotherham@Matthew:5:37 @ But let your word be, Yea, yea, Nay, nay; and, what goeth beyond these, is, of evil.

rotherham@Matthew:5:38 @ Ye have heard, that it was said, Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.

rotherham@Matthew:5:39 @ But, I, tell you, not to resist evil, Nay, whoever is smiting thee on the right cheek, turn to him, the other also;

rotherham@Matthew:5:40 @ And, him who is desiring thee to be judged, and to take, thy tunic, let him have, thy mantle also.

rotherham@Matthew:5:41 @ And, whoever shall impress thee one mile, go with him two:

rotherham@Matthew:5:42 @ To him who is asking thee, give; and, him who is desiring from thee to borrow, do not thou turn away.

rotherham@Matthew:5:43 @ Ye have heard, that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

rotherham@Matthew:5:44 @ But, I, say unto you, Be loving your enemies, and praying for them who are persecuting you:

rotherham@Matthew:5:45 @ That ye may become sons of your Father who is in the heavens: because, his sun, he maketh arise on evil and good, and sendeth rain, on just and unjust.

rotherham@Matthew:5:46 @ For, if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? are not, even the tax-collectors, the same thing, doing?

rotherham@Matthew:5:47 @ And, if ye salute your brethren only, what, more than common, are ye doing? are not, even the nations, the same thing, doing?

rotherham@Matthew:5:48 @ Ye, therefore, shall become, perfect: as, your heavenly Father, is perfect.

rotherham@Matthew:6:1 @ But take heed, that ye do not, your righteousness, before men, to be gazed at by them, otherwise at least, reward, have ye none, with your Father who is in the heavens.

rotherham@Matthew:6:2 @ When, therefore, thou mayest be doing an alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, just as, the hypocrites, do in the synagogues and in the streetsthat they may be glorified by men, Verily, I say unto you, they are getting back their reward.

rotherham@Matthew:6:3 @ But, thou, when doing an alms, let not, thy left hand, know what thy right hand is doing;

rotherham@Matthew:6:4 @ that thine alms may be in secret, and, thy Father, who seeth in secret, will give it back to thee.

rotherham@Matthew:6:5 @ And, when ye may be praying, ye shall not be as the hypocrites, because they love, in the synagogues, and at the corners of the broad ways, to take their stand and pray, that they may shine before men; Verily, I say unto you, they are getting back their reward.

rotherham@Matthew:6:6 @ But, thou, when thou wouldest pray, enter into thy closet, and, fastening thy door, pray unto thy Father who is in secret, and, thy Father who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

rotherham@Matthew:6:7 @ And, being at prayer, use not vain repetitions, just like the nations, for they think, that, in their much speaking, they shall be hoard;

rotherham@Matthew:6:8 @ do not, therefore, make yourselves like them, for God your Father knoweth of what things ye have, need, before ye ask him.

rotherham@Matthew:6:9 @ Thus, therefore pray, ye: Our Father, who art in the heavens, Hallowed be thy name,

rotherham@Matthew:6:10 @ Come may thy kingdom, Accomplished be thy will, as in heaven, also on earth:

rotherham@Matthew:6:11 @ Our needful bread, give us, this day;

rotherham@Matthew:6:12 @ And forgive us our debts, as, we also, have forgiven our debtors;

rotherham@Matthew:6:13 @ And bring us not into temptation, but rescue us from the evil one.

rotherham@Matthew:6:14 @ For, if ye forgive men their faults, Your Father who is in the heavens, will forgive, even you;

rotherham@Matthew:6:15 @ But, if ye forgive not men their faults, neither will your Father forgive, your faults.

rotherham@Matthew:6:16 @ And, when ye may he fasting, become not ye, as the hypocrites, of sullen countenance, for they darken their looks, that they may appear, unto men, to be fasting: Verily, I say unto you, they are getting back their reward.

rotherham@Matthew:6:17 @ But, when, thou, art fasting, anoint thy head, and, thy face, wash,

rotherham@Matthew:6:18 @ that thou do not appear, unto men, to be fasting, but to thy Father who is in secret, and, thy Father who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

rotherham@Matthew:6:19 @ Be not laying up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where, moth and rust, do tarnish, and where, thieves, dig through and steal;

rotherham@Matthew:6:20 @ but be laying up or yourselves treasures in heaven, where, neither moth nor rust, doth tarnish, and where, thieves, dig not through nor steal:

rotherham@Matthew:6:21 @ for, where, thy treasure, is, there, will be, thy heart also.

rotherham@Matthew:6:22 @ The lamp of the body, is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body, shall be, lighted up;

rotherham@Matthew:6:23 @ But, if thine eye be, evil, thy whole body, shall be, in the dark; if therefore, the light which is in thee, is, darkness, the darkness, how great!

rotherham@Matthew:6:24 @ No one, unto two masters, can be in service; for either, the one, he will hate, and, the other, love, or, one, he will hold to, and, the other, despise: Ye cannot be in service, unto God, and, unto Riches.

rotherham@Matthew:6:25 @ For this cause, I say unto you: Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat or what ye shall drink, or for your body, what ye shall put on: Is not, the life, more than, the food? And, the body, than, the raiment?

rotherham@Matthew:6:26 @ Observe intently, the birds of the heaven, that they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns, and yet, your heavenly Father, feedeth, them: Are no, ye, much better than, they?

rotherham@Matthew:6:27 @ But who from among you, being anxious, can add to his stature one cubit?

rotherham@Matthew:6:28 @ And, about clothing, why are ye anxious? Consider well the lilies of the field, how they grow, they toil not neither do they spin;

rotherham@Matthew:6:29 @ And yet, I say unto you, not even Solomon, in all his glory, was arrayed like, one of these!

rotherham@Matthew:6:30 @ Now, if the grass of the fieldwhich to-day, is, and, to-morrow, into an oven, is cast God thus adorneth, not much rather, you, little of faith?

rotherham@Matthew:6:31 @ Do not then be anxious saying, What shall we eat? or What shall we drink? or Wherewithal shall we be arrayed?

rotherham@Matthew:6:32 @ For, all these things, the nations, seek after, for your heavenly Father, knoweth, that ye are needing, all these things.

rotherham@Matthew:6:33 @ But be seeking first, the kingdom and its righteousness, and, all these things, shall be added unto you.

rotherham@Matthew:6:34 @ Do not, then, be anxious for the morrow; for the morrow, will be anxious, for itself: Sufficient for the day, is the evil thereof.

rotherham@Matthew:7:1 @ Judge not, that ye be not judged;

rotherham@Matthew:7:2 @ For, with what judgment ye judge, shall ye be judged, and, with what measure ye mete, shall it be measured unto you.

rotherham@Matthew:7:3 @ Why, moreover, beholdest thou the mote, in the eye of thy brother, while, the beam in thine own eye, thou dost not consider?

rotherham@Matthew:7:4 @ Or how wilt thou say unto thy brother, Let me cast the mote out of thine eye, when 1o! a beam, is in thine own eye?

rotherham@Matthew:7:5 @ Hypocrite! cast first, out of thine own eye, the beam, and, then, shalt thou see clearly to cast the mote, out of the eye of thy brother.

rotherham@Matthew:7:6 @ Do not give what is holy unto dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest once they trample, them, down with their feet, and, turning, tear, you.

rotherham@Matthew:7:7 @ Be asking, and it shall be given you, Be seeking, and ye shall find, Be knocking, and it shall be opened unto you.

rotherham@Matthew:7:8 @ For, whosoever asketh, receiveth, and, he that seeketh, findeth, and, to him that knocketh, shall it be opened.

rotherham@Matthew:7:9 @ Or what man, from among yourselves, whom his son shall ask for a loaf, a stone, will give him?

rotherham@Matthew:7:10 @ Or, a fish also, shall ask, a serpent, will give him?

rotherham@Matthew:7:11 @ If then, ye, being, evil, know how, good gifts, to be giving unto your children, how much more, will, your Father who is in the heavens, give good things to them that ask, him?

rotherham@Matthew:7:12 @ Whatsoever things, therefore, ye would, that men be doing unto you, so, be, ye also, doing, unto them, for, this, is the law and the prophets.

rotherham@Matthew:7:13 @ Enter ye in at, the narrow gate; because broad and roomy is the way that leadeth unto destruction, and, many, are they who enter thereby:

rotherham@Matthew:7:14 @ Because, narrow, is the gate, and, confined, the way, that leadeth unto life, and, few, are they who find, it.

rotherham@Matthew:7:15 @ Beware of false prophets, who come unto you in clothing of sheep, while, within, they are ravening wolves.

rotherham@Matthew:7:16 @ By their fruits, shall ye find, them, out, unless perhaps men gatherfrom thorns, grapes! or, from thistles, figs!

rotherham@Matthew:7:17 @ So, every good tree, fine fruit, produceth, whereas, the worthless tree, evil fruit, produceth:

rotherham@Matthew:7:18 @ It is, impossible, for a, good tree, to be bearing, evil fruit, neither doth, a worthless tree, produce, fine fruit.

rotherham@Matthew:7:19 @ Every tree that beareth not fine fruit, is hewn down, and, into fire, is cast.

rotherham@Matthew:7:20 @ After all then, by their fruits, shall ye find, them, out.

rotherham@Matthew:7:21 @ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord! Lord! shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in the heavens.

rotherham@Matthew:7:22 @ Many, will say unto me, in, that, day, Lord! Lord! did we not, in thy name, prophesy, and, in thy name, cast, demons, out, and, in thy name, many works of power, perform?

rotherham@Matthew:7:23 @ And, then, will I confess unto them, Never, have I acknowledged you, Depart from me, ye workers of lawlessness!

rotherham@Matthew:7:24 @ Every one, therefore, who heareth these my words, and doeth them, shall be likened to a prudent man, who built his house upon the rock;

rotherham@Matthew:7:25 @ And the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and rushed against that house, and it fell not; for it had been founded upon the rock.

rotherham@Matthew:7:26 @ And every one who heareth these my words, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand;

rotherham@Matthew:7:27 @ And the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and dashed against that house, and it fell; and, the fall thereof, was, great.

rotherham@Matthew:7:28 @ And it came to pass, when Jesus ended these words, with astonishment were the multitudes being struck at his teaching;

rotherham@Matthew:7:29 @ for he was teaching them as one having, authority, and not as their Scribes.

rotherham@Matthew:8:1 @ And when he came down from the mountain, there followed him large multitudes.
