Ang Sermon sa Bundok

Nang makita ni Jesus ang napakaraming tao, umakyat siya sa bundok. Pagkaupo niya lumapit ang kanyang mga alagad at siya'y nagsimulang magturo sa kanila.

Ang mga Pinagpala(A)

“Pinagpala ang mga taong walang inaasahan kundi ang Diyos,
    sapagkat kabilang sila sa kaharian ng langit.
“Pinagpala(B) ang mga nagdadalamhati,
    sapagkat aaliwin sila ng Diyos.
“Pinagpala(C) ang mga mapagpakumbaba,
    sapagkat mamanahin nila ang daigdig.
“Pinagpala(D) ang mga may matinding hangarin na sumunod sa kalooban ng Diyos,
    sapagkat sila'y bibigyang kasiyahan ng Diyos.
“Pinagpala ang mga mahabagin,
    sapagkat kahahabagan sila ng Diyos.
“Pinagpala(E) ang mga may malinis na puso,
    sapagkat makikita nila ang Diyos.
“Pinagpala ang mga gumagawa ng paraan para sa kapayapaan,
    sapagkat sila'y ituturing na mga anak ng Diyos.
10 “Pinagpala(F) ang mga inuusig nang dahil sa kanilang pagsunod sa kalooban ng Diyos,
    sapagkat kabilang sila sa kaharian ng langit.

11 “Pinagpala(G) ang mga nilalait at inuusig ng mga tao, at pinaparatangan ng lahat ng uri ng kasamaan [na pawang kasinungalingan][a] nang dahil sa akin. 12 Magsaya(H) kayo at magalak sapagkat malaki ang inyong gantimpala sa langit. Alalahanin ninyong inusig din ang mga propetang nauna sa inyo.”

Asin at Ilaw(I)

13 “Kayo(J) ang asin ng sangkatauhan. Ngunit kung ang asin ay mawalan na ng alat, paano pa ito mapapaalat muli? Hindi ba wala na itong kabuluhan kundi ang itapon at tapakan ng mga tao?

14 “Kayo(K) ang ilaw ng sanlibutan. Ang isang lungsod na nakatayo sa ibabaw ng burol ay hindi maitatago. 15 Walang(L) taong nagsisindi ng ilaw at pagkatapos ay inilalagay iyon sa ilalim ng banga. Sa halip, inilalagay iyon sa talagang patungan upang matanglawan ang lahat ng nasa bahay. 16 Gayundin(M) naman, dapat ninyong paliwanagin ang inyong ilaw sa harap ng mga tao upang makita nila ang inyong mabubuting gawa at papurihan ang inyong Ama na nasa langit.”

Katuruan tungkol sa Kautusan

17 “Huwag ninyong akalaing naparito ako upang ipawalang-bisa ang Kautusan at ang mga Propeta.[b] Naparito ako hindi upang ipawalang-bisa ang mga iyon kundi upang tuparin. 18 Tandaan(N) ninyo: maglalaho ang langit at ang lupa, ngunit ni isang tuldok o kudlit man ng Kautusan ay di mawawalan ng bisa hangga't hindi natutupad ang lahat. 19 Kaya't sinumang magpawalang-bisa sa kaliit-liitang bahagi nito, at magturo nang gayon sa mga tao, ay magiging pinakamababa sa kaharian ng langit. Ngunit ang sumusunod sa Kautusan at nagtuturo sa mga tao na tuparin iyon ay magiging dakila sa kaharian ng langit. 20 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, kung ang pagsunod ninyo sa kalooban ng Diyos ay tulad lamang ng pagsunod ng mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan at mga Pariseo, hinding-hindi kayo makakapasok sa kaharian ng langit.”

Ang Katuruan tungkol sa Pagkagalit

21 “Narinig(O) ninyo na sinabi sa inyong mga ninuno, ‘Huwag kang papatay; ang sinumang pumatay ay mananagot sa hukuman.’ 22 Ngunit sinasabi ko naman sa inyo, ang sinumang napopoot sa kanyang kapatid ay mananagot sa hukuman, ang humahamak sa kanyang kapatid ay mananagot sa Kataas-taasang Kapulungan ng mga Judio, at sinumang magsabi sa kanyang kapatid, ‘Ulol ka!’ ay manganganib na maparusahan sa apoy ng impiyerno. 23 Kaya't kung mag-aalay ka ng handog sa dambana para sa Diyos at naalala mong may sama ng loob sa iyo ang iyong kapatid, 24 iwan mo muna ang iyong handog sa harap ng dambana at makipagkasundo ka sa kanya. Pagkatapos, magbalik ka at maghandog sa Diyos.

25 “Kung may ibig magsakdal sa iyo, makipag-ayos ka agad sa kanya bago makarating sa hukuman ang inyong kaso. Kung hindi ay dadalhin ka niya sa hukom, at ibibigay ka nito sa tanod, at ikukulong ka naman sa bilangguan. 26 Tandaan mo: hindi ka makakalabas doon hangga't hindi mo nababayaran ang kahuli-hulihang barya na dapat mong bayaran.”

Ang Katuruan Laban sa Pangangalunya

27 “Narinig(P) ninyong sinabi, ‘Huwag kang mangangalunya.’ 28 Ngunit sinasabi ko sa inyo, ang sinumang tumingin sa isang babae nang may pagnanasa ay nangangalunya na sa babaing iyon sa kanyang puso. 29 Kung(Q) ang kanang mata mo ay nagiging sanhi ng iyong pagkakasala, dukitin mo ito at itapon! Mabuti pang mawalan ka ng isang bahagi ng iyong katawan kaysa ang buo mong katawan ang itapon sa impiyerno. 30 Kung(R) ang iyong kanang kamay naman ay nagiging sanhi ng iyong pagkakasala, putulin mo ito at itapon! Mabuti pang mawalan ka ng isang bahagi ng iyong katawan kaysa ang buo mong katawan ang itapon sa impiyerno.”

Paghihiwalay Dahil sa Pangangalunya(S)

31 “Sinabi(T) rin naman, ‘Kapag makikipaghiwalay ang isang lalaki sa kanyang asawa, ito'y dapat niyang bigyan ng kasulatan ng paghihiwalay.’ 32 Ngunit(U) sinasabi ko sa inyo, kapag nakipaghiwalay ang isang lalaki sa kanyang asawa, maliban kung ito ay nakikiapid,[c] itinutulak niya ang kanyang asawa sa pangangalunya, at sinumang makipag-asawa sa babaing hiniwalayan ay nagkakasala rin ng pangangalunya.”

Katuruan tungkol sa Panunumpa

33 “Narinig(V) din ninyong sinabi sa inyong mga ninuno, ‘Huwag kang susumpa nang walang katotohanan; sa halip, tuparin mo ang iyong sinumpaang panata sa Panginoon.’ 34 Ngunit(W) sinasabi ko sa inyo, huwag kayong manunumpa kapag kayo'y nangangako. Huwag ninyong sasabihing, ‘Saksi ko ang langit,’ sapagkat ito'y trono ng Diyos; 35 o(X) kaya'y, ‘Saksi ko ang lupa,’ sapagkat ito'y kanyang tuntungan. Huwag din ninyong sasabihing, ‘Saksi ko ang Jerusalem,’ sapagkat ito'y lungsod ng dakilang Hari. 36 Huwag mo ring ipanumpa ang iyong ulo, sapagkat ni isang buhok sa iyong ulo ay hindi mo kayang paputiin o paitimin. 37 Sabihin mo na lang na ‘Oo’ kung oo at ‘Hindi’ kung hindi, sapagkat ang anumang sumpang idaragdag dito ay buhat na sa Masama.”

Katuruan Laban sa Paghihiganti(Y)

38 “Narinig(Z) ninyong sinabi, ‘Mata sa mata at ngipin sa ngipin.’ 39 Ngunit sinasabi ko sa inyo, huwag kayong gumanti sa masamang tao. Kung sinampal ka sa kanang pisngi, iharap mo rin sa kanya ang kaliwa. 40 Kung isakdal ka ninuman upang makuha ang iyong damit, ibigay mo ito sa kanya pati ang iyong balabal. 41 Kung pilitin ka ng isang kawal na pasanin ang kanyang dala ng isang milya,[d] pasanin mo iyon ng dalawang milya. 42 Bigyan mo ang nanghihingi sa iyo at huwag mong tanggihan ang nanghihiram sa iyo.”

Pagmamahal sa Kaaway(AA)

43 “Narinig(AB) ninyong sinabi, ‘Ibigin mo ang iyong kapwa at kamuhian mo ang iyong kaaway.’ 44 Ngunit ito naman ang sinasabi ko, ibigin ninyo ang inyong mga kaaway at ipanalangin ninyo ang mga umuusig sa inyo, 45 upang(AC) kayo'y maging tunay na mga anak ng inyong Ama na nasa langit. Sapagkat pinasisikat niya ang araw sa mabubuti gayon din sa masasama, at nagpapaulan siya sa mga matuwid at sa mga di-matuwid.

46 “Kung ang mga nagmamahal sa inyo ang siya lamang ninyong mamahalin, anong gantimpala ang inyong maaasahan? Hindi ba't ginagawa rin iyan ng mga maniningil ng buwis? 47 At kung ang mga kapatid lamang ninyo ang inyong binabati, ano ang ginagawa ninyong higit kaysa iba? Hindi ba't ginagawa rin iyan ng mga Hentil? 48 Kaya(AD) maging ganap kayo, gaya ng inyong Ama na nasa langit.”

The Sermon on the Mount; The Beatitudes

(A)Now when Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on (B)the [a]mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him. (C)And He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,

[b](D)Blessed are the [c]poor in spirit, for (E)theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are (F)those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are (G)the [d]lowly, for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are (H)those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Blessed are (I)the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
Blessed are (J)the pure in heart, for (K)they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for (L)they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are those who have been (M)persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for (N)theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 “Blessed are you when people (O)insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for (P)in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Salt and Light

13 “You are the salt of the earth; but (Q)if the salt has become tasteless, how will it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out to be trampled under foot by men.

14 “You are (R)the light of the world. A city set on a [e]hill cannot be hidden; 15 (S)nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a [f]basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may (T)see your good works, and (U)glorify your Father who is in heaven.

17 “Do not think that I came to abolish the (V)Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. 18 For truly I say to you, (W)until heaven and earth pass away, not [g]the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19 Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches [h]others to do the same, shall be called least (X)in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20 “For I say to you that unless your (Y)righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.

Personal Relationships

21 (Z)You have heard that [i]the ancients were told, ‘(AA)You shall not murder’ and ‘Whoever murders shall be guilty before (AB)the court.’ 22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before (AC)the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘[j]Raca,’ shall be guilty before the [k](AD)Sanhedrin; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the [l](AE)fiery hell. 23 Therefore if you are (AF)presenting your [m]offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, 24 leave your [n]offering there before the altar and go; first be (AG)reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your [o]offering. 25 (AH)Make friends quickly with your opponent at law while you are with him on the way, so that your opponent may not hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison. 26 Truly I say to you, (AI)you will not come out of there until you have paid up the last [p]quadrans.

27 (AJ)You have heard that it was said, ‘(AK)You shall not commit adultery’; 28 but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman (AL)to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 (AM)But if your right eye makes you [q]stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you [r]to lose one of the parts of your body, [s]than for your whole body to be thrown into [t](AN)hell. 30 (AO)And if your right hand makes you [u]stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you [v]to lose one of the parts of your body, [w]than for your whole body to go into [x](AP)hell.

31 “Now it was said, ‘(AQ)Whoever sends his wife away, let him give her a certificate of divorce’; 32 (AR)but I say to you that everyone who [y]divorces his wife, except for the reason of sexual immorality, makes her commit adultery; and whoever marries a [z]divorced woman commits adultery.

33 “Again, (AS)you have heard that [aa]the ancients were told, ‘[ab](AT)You shall not [ac]make false vows, but shall fulfill your [ad]vows to the [ae]Lord.’ 34 But I say to you, (AU)make no oath at all, either by heaven, for it is (AV)the throne of God, 35 or by the earth, for it is the (AW)footstool of His feet, or [af]by Jerusalem, for it is (AX)the city of the great King. 36 Nor shall you make an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is [ag]of (AY)the evil one.

38 (AZ)You have heard that it was said, ‘(BA)An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but (BB)whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. 40 And if anyone wants to sue you and take your [ah]tunic, let him have your [ai]garment also. 41 And whoever [aj]forces you to go one mile, go with him two. 42 (BC)Give to him who asks of you, and do not turn away from him who wants to borrow from you.

43 (BD)You have heard that it was said, ‘(BE)You shall love your neighbor (BF)and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, (BG)love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may [ak]be (BH)sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 For (BI)if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 Therefore [al](BJ)you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Introduction to the Sermon on the Mount

Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, and he began to teach them.

The Beatitudes(A)

He said:

“Blessed are the poor in spirit,
    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.(B)
Blessed are those who mourn,
    for they will be comforted.(C)
Blessed are the meek,
    for they will inherit the earth.(D)
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
    for they will be filled.(E)
Blessed are the merciful,
    for they will be shown mercy.(F)
Blessed are the pure in heart,(G)
    for they will see God.(H)
Blessed are the peacemakers,(I)
    for they will be called children of God.(J)
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,(K)
    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.(L)

11 “Blessed are you when people insult you,(M) persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.(N) 12 Rejoice and be glad,(O) because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.(P)

Salt and Light

13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.(Q)

14 “You are the light of the world.(R) A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.(S) 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others,(T) that they may see your good deeds(U) and glorify(V) your Father in heaven.

The Fulfillment of the Law

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.(W) 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.(X) 19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands(Y) and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.(Z)

Murder(AA)

21 “You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘You shall not murder,[a](AB) and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’ 22 But I tell you that anyone who is angry(AC) with a brother or sister[b][c] will be subject to judgment.(AD) Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’[d] is answerable to the court.(AE) And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell.(AF)

23 “Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you, 24 leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift.

25 “Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. 26 Truly I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.

Adultery

27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’[e](AG) 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.(AH) 29 If your right eye causes you to stumble,(AI) 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. 30 And if your right hand causes you to stumble,(AJ) 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 go into hell.

Divorce

31 “It has been said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’[f](AK) 32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery, and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.(AL)

Oaths

33 “Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath,(AM) but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.’(AN) 34 But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all:(AO) either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;(AP) 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King.(AQ) 36 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’;(AR) anything beyond this comes from the evil one.[g](AS)

Eye for Eye

38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’[h](AT) 39 But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.(AU) 40 And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. 41 If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. 42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.(AV)

Love for Enemies

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[i](AW) and hate your enemy.’(AX) 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,(AY) 45 that you may be children(AZ) 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.(BA) 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get?(BB) Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.(BC)
