Matthew

山上宝训

1耶稣看见这许多的人，就上了山，既已坐下，门徒到他跟前来，

2他就开口教训他们，说：

论福

3虚心的人有福了！ 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温柔的人有福了！ 因为他们必承受地土。

6饥渴慕义的人有福了！ 因为他们必得饱足。

7怜恤人的人有福了！ 因为他们必蒙怜恤。

8清心的人有福了！ 因为他们必得见 神。

9使人和睦的人有福了！ 因为他们必称为 神的儿子。

10为义受逼迫的人有福了！ 因为天国是他们的。

11「人若因我辱骂你们，逼迫你们，捏造各样坏话毁谤你们，你们就有福了！

12应当欢喜快乐，因为你们在天上的赏赐是大的。在你们以前的先知，人也是这样逼迫他们。」

盐和光

13「你们是世上的盐。盐若失了味，怎能叫它再咸呢？以后无用，不过丢在外面，被人践踏了。

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，是放在灯台上，就照亮一家的人。

16你们的光也当这样照在人前，叫他们看见你们的好行为，便将荣耀归给你们在天上的父。」

论律法

17「莫想我来要废掉律法和先知。我来不是要废掉，乃是要成全。

18我实在告诉你们，就是到天地都废去了，律法的一点一画也不能废去，都要成全。

19所以，无论何人废掉这诫命中最小的一条，又教训人这样做，他在天国要称为最小的。但无论何人遵行这诫命，又教训人遵行，他在天国要称为大的。

20我告诉你们，你们的义若不胜于文士和法利赛人的义，断不能进天国。」

论发怒

21「你们听见有吩咐古人的话，说：『不可杀人』；又说：『凡杀人的难免受审判。』

22只是我告诉你们，凡向弟兄动怒的，难免受审断；凡骂弟兄是拉加的，难免公会的审断；凡骂弟兄是魔利的，难免地狱的火。

23所以，你在祭坛上献礼物的时候，若想起弟兄向你怀怨，

24就把礼物留在坛前，先去同弟兄和好，然后来献礼物。

25你同告你的对头还在路上，就赶紧与他和息，恐怕他把你送给审判官，审判官交付衙役，你就下在监里了。

26我实在告诉你，若有一文钱没有还清，你断不能从那里出来。」

论奸淫

27「你们听见有话说：『不可奸淫。』

28只是我告诉你们，凡看见妇女就动淫念的，这人心里已经与她犯奸淫了。

29若是你的右眼叫你跌倒，就剜出来丢掉，宁可失去百体中的一体，不叫全身丢在地狱里。

30若是右手叫你跌倒，就砍下来丢掉，宁可失去百体中的一体，不叫全身下入地狱。」

论休妻

31「又有话说：『人若休妻，就当给她休书。』

32只是我告诉你们，凡休妻的，若不是为淫乱的缘故，就是叫她作淫妇了；人若娶这被休的妇人，也是犯奸淫了。」

论起誓

33「你们又听见有吩咐古人的话，说：『不可背誓，所起的誓总要向主谨守。』

34只是我告诉你们，什么誓都不可起。不可指着天起誓，因为天是 神的座位；

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了。

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

38「你们听见有话说：『以眼还眼，以牙还牙。』

39只是我告诉你们，不要与恶人作对。有人打你的右脸，连左脸也转过来由他打；

40有人想要告你，要拿你的里衣，连外衣也由他拿去；

41有人强逼你走一里路，你就同他走二里；

42有求你的，就给他；有向你借贷的，不可推辞。」

论爱仇敌

43「你们听见有话说：『当爱你的邻舍，恨你的仇敌。』

44只是我告诉你们，要爱你们的仇敌，为那逼迫你们的祷告。

45这样就可以作你们天父的儿子；因为他叫日头照好人，也照歹人；降雨给义人，也给不义的人。

46你们若单爱那爱你们的人，有什么赏赐呢？就是税吏不也是这样行吗？

47你们若单请你弟兄的安，比人有什么长处呢？就是外邦人不也是这样行吗？

48所以，你们要完全，像你们的天父完全一样。」

The Sermon on the Mount

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

2and He began to teach them, saying:

The Beatitudes

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Salt and Light

13You 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.

14You are the light of the world. A city on a hillcannot be hidden.

15Neither 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.

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

The Fulfillment of the Law

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

18For 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.

19So 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.

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

Anger and Reconciliation

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

22But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brotherwill 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.

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

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

25Reconcile 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.

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

Adultery

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

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

29If 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.

30And 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.

Divorce

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

32But 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.

Oaths and Vows

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

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

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

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

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

Love Your Enemies

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

45that 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.

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

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

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