Eudifo lokomhunda: ovanelao oolyelye
(Luk. 6:20-23)1 Ndele Ye eshi a mona ko eengudu dovanhu okwa londa komhunda; ndele eshi a kala omutumba, ovalongwa vaye ove uya kuye. 2 Ndele Ye okwa hovela okupopya, e va longa ndele ta ti:
3 “Ovanelao eehepele domhepo, osheshi Ouhamba weulu owavo.
4 “Ovanelao ovo va nyika oluhodi, osheshi ovo tava ka hekelekwa.
5 “Ovanelao ovananheni, osheshi ovo tava ka fyuulula edu.
6 “Ovanelao ava va fya ondjala nenota louyuki, osheshi ovo tava ka kutifwa.
7 “Ovanelao ovananghenda, osheshi ovo tava ka filwa onghenda.
8 “Ovanelao ovo ve nomitima da yela, osheshi ovo tava ka mona Kalunga.
9 “Ovanelao ovanambili, osheshi ovo tava ka ifanwa ovana vaKalunga.
10 “Ovanelao ava, tava hepekelwa ouyuki, osheshi ouhamba weulu owavo.
11 “Ovanelao onye, ovanhu ngeenge tave mu sheke ndele tave mu taataa ndele tave mu popile mowii aushe nokufufya molwange. 12 Hafeni nye mu nyakukwe pombada, osheshi ondjabi yeni oinene meulu; osho ngaha va li va taataa ovaxunganeki, ve mu tetekela.
Omongwa nouyelele
(Mark. 9:50Luk. 14:34-35)13 “Onye omongwa wedu; ndele omongwa ngeenge tau tutuka, otau shunwa eenghono koshike? Kau na vali oshilonga, ou nokweekelwashi nokulyatwa kovanhu.
14 “Onye ouyelele wounyuni. Oshilando sha tungilwa komhunda itashi dulu okuhondama. 15 Ngaashi olamba ihai temwa i tulwe koshi yoshimbale, ndelenee koshikwatelwalamba, ndele tai minikile aveshe ve li meumbo.
16 “Osho ngaha nouyelele weni nau minikile moipafi yovanhu, va mone oilonga yeni iwa nova hambelele Xo yeni meulu.
Jesus ta fatulula omhango
17 “Inamu diladila Ame nde uya okudima po omhango novaxunganeki; inandi uya oku di dima po, ndelenee oku di wanifa. 18 Osheshi oshili handi mu lombwele: fiyo eulu nedu tali xulu po, momhango itamu di nande okandada kamwe ile oshinghwanyu shimwe fiyo aishe ya wanifwa. 19 Hano ngeenge ku na ou ta dimi po nande oshimwe shomoipango ei inininini ndele ta longo ngaha ovanhu, oye ota ifanwa omunininini mouhamba womeulu; ndele ou te i wanifa note i longo, ye ota ifanwa omunene mouhamba womeulu. 20 Osheshi Ame ohandi mu lombwele: ouyuki weni ngeenge kau dule shili ou wovanongo vomishangwa nowOvafarisai, itamu i nande mouhamba womeulu.
Edipao
(Luk. 12:57-59)21 “Onye mwe shi uda ooxokulu va lombwelwa: ‘Ino dipaa; na: Ou ta dipaa, oye okwe lilongela okutokolwa.’ 22 Ndelenee Ame ohandi mu lombwele: keshe ou ta handukile omumwaina, oye okwe lilongela ehandu letokolo, okeshe tuu ou ta handukile omumwaina ndele ta ti: ‘Oshinhu ove,’ ye okwe lilongela ehandu loshiongalele shovakulunhu; naau ta ti: ‘Elai ove,’ oye okwe lilongela omundilo woheli. 23 Onghee hano, ove ngeenge to twala oshali shoye koaltari, ndele oko wa dimbulukila omumwanyoko nokutya, e na sha naave, 24 fiya ko oshali shoye koaltari, u ye manga mu ka paafane ombili nomumwanyoko, ove u aluke u ka yandje oshali shoye. 25 Itavela diva mu paafane ombili nomutamaneki woye, fimbo mu li mondjila naye, omutamaneki woye ehe ku yandje komutokoli, nomutokoli ehe ku yandje komupiya, ove to twalwa modolongo. 26 Osheshi oshili handi ku lombwele: ku na efiku limwe to di mo, fiyo to futu okapeni kaxuuninwa.
Enyono lohombo
(Mark. 9:43-48)27 “Onye mwe shi uda sha tiwa: ‘Ino nyona ohombo.’ 28 Ndelenee Ame ohandi mu lombwele: okeshe tuu ou ta tale omukainhu nokahalu, oye okwe mu haela momutima waye. 29 Eisho loye lokolulyo ngeenge tali ku hongaula, li kolola mo, ove u li ekeleshi: osheshi okunyona po oshinhimbu shoye shimwe kwe ku wapalela, shi dule olutu loye alishe tali ekelwa moheli. 30 Neke loye lokolulyo ngeenge tali ku hongaula li teta ko, ove u li ekeleshi, osheshi okunyona po oshinhimbu shoye shimwe oshipu, shi dule olutu loye alishe li ekelwe moheli.
Ehengo
(Mark. 10:11-12Luk. 16:18)31 “Okwa tiwa yo: ‘Ou ta henge po omukainhu waye, oye ne mu pe ombapila yehengo.’ 32 Ndele Ame ohandi mu lombwele: Keshe ou ta hengele po omukainhu waye oshinima shimwe shihe fi oluhaelo, ote mu haelifa, ndele ou ta hombola po omuhengwa, ye ota haele.
33 “Ndele vali mwa udile ooxokulu va lombwelwa: ‘Ino ana oipupulu, ndele eano loye li wanifila Omwene.’ 34 Ndelenee Ame ohandi mu lombwele: Inamu ana nandenande, hakeulu, osheshi olo olukalwa laKalunga, 35 hakedu, osheshi olo oshilyatelo shokeemhadi daye, hakuJerusalem, osheshi osho oshilando shohamba inene; 36 ino ana komutwe woye, osheshi ove ku dulu okushitukifa nande oluxwiki limwe li ninge litoka ile lilaula; 37 ndele eendjovo deni nadi tye: ‘Heeno, heeno’, ile: ‘ahowe, ahowe.’ Odo da wedwa ko, odo oda dja mowii.
Okwaalulila owii
(Luk. 6:29-30)38 “Onye mwa uda eshi sha tiwa: ‘Eisho omeisho, eyoo omeyoo.’ 39 Ndelenee Ame ohandi mu lombwele: Inamu kondjifa omunawii; ndele ngeenge ku na ou te ku denge kolupanda lokolulyo, mu alulila nalikwao; 40 ndele ngeenge ku na ou te ku twala koihokolola a hala e ku kufe ngeno oshikutu shoye shokoshi, mu pa yo oshikutu shoye shokombada; 41 ndele ngeenge ku na ou te ku fininike u mu findikile shinano shimwe, mu findikila ivali. 42 Pa ou te ku indile, ino pilamena ou a hala e ku lile oshikolo.

The Sermon on the Mount
1 When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on the side of a mountain and sat down.
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!
4 God blesses those people
who grieve.
They will find comfort!
5 God blesses those people
who are humble.
The earth will belong
to them!
6 God blesses those people
who want to obey him
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 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 God blesses those people
who are treated badly
for doing right.
They belong to the kingdom
of heaven.
11 God will bless you when people insult you, mistreat you, and tell all kinds of evil lies about you because of me. 12 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 9.50Luke 14.34Luke 35)13 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 You are the light for the whole world. A city built on top of a hill cannot be hidden, 15 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 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. I did not come to do away with them, but to give them their full meaning. 18 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 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, 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 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 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 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 19.9Mark 10.11Mark 12Luke 16.18)31 You have been taught that a man who divorces his wife must write out divorce papers for her. 32 But I tell you not to divorce your wife unless she has committed some terrible sexual sin. 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 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 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 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 6.29Luke 30)38 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, 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. 42 When people ask you for something, give it to them. When they want to borrow money, lend it to them.
Love
(Luke 6.27Luke 28Luke 32-36)43 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 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 collectors love their friends. 47 If you greet only your friends, what's so great about this? Don't even unbelievers do that? 48 But you must always act like your Father in heaven.
