Mateo 7
Magandang Balita Biblia

Paghatol sa Kapwa(A)

7 “Huwag kayong humatol, nang kayo'y di hatulan. 2 Sapagkat(B) hahatulan kayo ng Diyos ayon sa paghatol ninyo sa iba, at susukatin kayo ayon sa panukat na ginagamit ninyo sa iba. 3 Bakit mo pinapansin ang puwing sa mata ng iyong kapatid ngunit hindi mo pinapansin ang trosong nasa iyong mata? 4 Paano mong masasabi sa iyong kapatid, ‘Halika't aalisin ko ang puwing mo,’ gayong troso ang nasa mata mo? 5 Mapagkunwari! Alisin mo muna ang trosong nasa iyong mata at sa gayon, makakakita kang mabuti at maaalis mo ang puwing ng iyong kapatid.

6 “Huwag ninyong ibigay sa mga aso ang banal na bagay, baka pagkatapos ay kayo pa ang balingan at sakmalin nila. Huwag ninyong ihagis sa baboy ang inyong mga perlas sapagkat yuyurakan lamang nila ang mga iyon.”

Humingi, Humanap, Kumatok(C)

7 “Humingi kayo at kayo'y bibigyan; humanap kayo at kayo'y makakatagpo; kumatok kayo at kayo'y pagbubuksan. 8 Sapagkat ang bawat humihingi ay tatanggap; ang bawat humahanap ay makakatagpo; at ang bawat kumakatok ay pagbubuksan. 9 Bibigyan ba ninyo ng bato ang inyong anak kapag siya'y humihingi ng tinapay? 10 Bibigyan ba ninyo siya ng ahas kapag siya'y humihingi ng isda? 11 Kung kayong masasama ay marunong magbigay ng mabubuting bagay sa inyong mga anak, gaano pa kaya ang inyong Ama na nasa langit? Bibigyan niya ng mabubuting bagay ang sinumang humihingi sa kanya!

12 “Gawin(D) ninyo sa inyong kapwa ang nais ninyong gawin nila sa inyo. Ito ang buod ng Kautusan at ng mga isinulat ng mga propeta.”

Ang Makipot na Pintuan(E)

13 “Pumasok(F) kayo sa makipot na pintuan. Sapagkat maluwang ang pintuan at malapad ang daang papunta sa kapahamakan, at ito ang dinaraanan ng marami. 14 Ngunit makipot ang pintuan at makitid ang daang papunta sa buhay, at kakaunti ang nakakatagpo niyon.”

Sa Gawa Makikilala(G)

15 “Mag-ingat kayo sa mga huwad na propeta. Lumalapit sila sa inyo na parang tupa, ngunit ang totoo'y mababangis na asong-gubat. 16 Makikilala(H) ninyo sila sa kanilang mga gawa. Mapipitas ba ang ubas sa puno ng dawag, o ang igos sa matitinik na halaman? 17 Mabuti ang bunga ng mabuting puno, subalit masama ang bunga ng masamang puno. 18 Hindi maaaring mamunga ng masama ang mabuting puno at hindi maaaring mamunga ng mabuti ang masamang puno. 19 Ang(I) bawat punong hindi mabuti ang bunga ay puputulin at itatapon sa apoy. 20 Kaya't(J) makikilala ninyo ang mga huwad na propeta sa pamamagitan ng kanilang mga gawa.”

Hindi Ko Kayo Kilala(K)

21 “Hindi lahat ng tumatawag sa akin, ‘Panginoon, Panginoon,’ ay papasok sa kaharian ng langit, kundi ang mga taong sumusunod sa kalooban ng aking Ama na nasa langit. 22 Sa Araw ng Paghuhukom marami ang magsasabi sa akin, ‘Panginoon, hindi po ba't sa iyong pangalan ay nangaral kami, nagpalayas ng mga demonyo at gumawa ng mga himala?’ 23 Ngunit(L) sasabihin ko sa kanila, ‘Hindi ko kayo kilala. Lumayo kayo sa akin, kayong mga gumagawa ng kasamaan.’”

Sa Bato o sa Buhanginan?(M)

24 “Kaya't ang bawat nakikinig at nagsasagawa ng mga salita kong ito ay maitutulad sa isang taong matalino na nagtayo ng kanyang bahay na ang pundasyon ay bato. 25 Umulan nang malakas, bumaha, at binayo ng malakas na hangin ang bahay na iyon, ngunit hindi nagiba sapagkat nakatayo iyon sa bato. 26 Ang bawat nakikinig ng aking salita ngunit hindi naman nagsasagawa ng mga ito ay maitutulad naman sa isang taong hangal na nagtayo ng kanyang bahay sa buhanginan. 27 Umulan nang malakas, bumaha at binayo ng malakas na hangin ang bahay. Ito ay bumagsak at lubusang nawasak.”

Ang Kapangyarihan ni Jesus

28 Namangha(N) kay Jesus ang mga tao nang kanilang marinig ang kanyang pagtuturo 29 sapagkat nagturo siya nang may kapangyarihan, hindi tulad ng mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan.

Matthew 7
New English Translation

Do Not Judge

7 “Do not judge so that you will not be judged.[a] 2 For by the standard you judge you will be judged, and the measure you use will be the measure you receive.[b] 3 Why[c] do you see the speck[d] in your brother’s eye, but fail to see[e] the beam of wood[f] in your own? 4 Or how can you say[g] to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ while there is a beam in your own? 5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. 6 Do not give what is holy to dogs or throw your pearls before pigs; otherwise they will trample them under their feet and turn around and tear you to pieces.[h]

Ask, Seek, Knock

7 “Ask[i] and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door[j] will be opened for you. 8 For everyone who asks[k] receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 Is[l] there anyone among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?[m] 11 If you then, although you are evil,[n] know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts[o] to those who ask him! 12 In[p] everything, treat others as you would want them[q] to treat you,[r] for this fulfills[s] the law and the prophets.

The Narrow Gate

13 “Enter[t] through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the way is spacious that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 14 How[u] narrow is the gate and difficult the way that leads to life,[v] and there are few who find it!

A Tree and Its Fruit

15 “Watch out for false prophets,[w] who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are voracious wolves.[x] 16 You will recognize them by their fruit. Grapes are not gathered[y] from thorns or figs from thistles, are they?[z] 17 In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad[aa] tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree is not able to bear bad fruit, nor a bad tree to bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 So then, you will recognize them by their fruit.

Judgment of Pretenders

21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’[ab] will enter into the kingdom of heaven—only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. 22 On that day, many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many powerful deeds in your name?’[ac] 23 Then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you. Go away from me, you lawbreakers!’[ad]

Hearing and Doing

24 “Everyone[ae] who hears these words of mine and does them is like[af] a wise man[ag] who built his house on rock. 25 The rain fell, the flood[ah] came, and the winds beat against that house, but it did not collapse because its foundation had been laid on rock. 26 Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain fell, the flood came, and the winds beat against that house, and it collapsed—it was utterly destroyed!”[ai]

28 When[aj] Jesus finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed by his teaching, 29 because he taught them like one who had authority,[ak] not like their experts in the law.[al]

Footnotes

  1. Matthew 7:1 sn The point of the statement do not judge so that you will not be judged is that the standards we apply to others God applies to us. The passive verb will not be judged has God is the unstated performer of the action. Such usage is generally thought to have arisen within Judaism out of the tendency to minimize the mention of God’s name out of reverence for God, and carried over into early Christian tradition, although in this particular verse the agent may be left unstated more for rhetorical effect. See also ExSyn 437-38.
  2. Matthew 7:2 tn Grk “by the measure with which you measure it will be measured to you.”
  3. Matthew 7:3 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
  4. Matthew 7:3 sn The term translated speck (KJV, ASV “mote”; NAB “splinter”) refers to a small piece of wood, chaff, or straw; see L&N 3.66.
  5. Matthew 7:3 tn Or “do not notice.”
  6. Matthew 7:3 sn The term beam of wood refers to a very big piece of wood, the main beam of a building, in contrast to the speck in the other’s eye (L&N 7.78).
  7. Matthew 7:4 tn Grk “how will you say?”
  8. Matthew 7:6 tn Or “otherwise the latter will trample them under their feet and the former will turn around and tear you to pieces.” This verse is sometimes understood as a chiasm of the pattern a-b-b-a, in which the first and last clauses belong together (“dogs…turn around and tear you to pieces”) and the second and third clauses belong together (“pigs…trample them under their feet”).
  9. Matthew 7:7 tn The three present imperatives in this verse are best viewed as iterative (Wallace, ExSyn 722, lists the verse as an example of this usage), calling for repeated action.sn Many interpreters see the three present imperatives (Ask…seek…knock) as mainly limited to persistence in prayer (cf. v. 11), though others see them referring more generally to taking the initiative with God in various ways.
  10. Matthew 7:7 tn Grk “it”; the referent (a door) is implied by the context and has been specified in the translation here and in v. 8 for clarity.
  11. Matthew 7:8 sn The actions of asking, seeking, and knocking are repeated here from v. 7 with the additional encouragement that God does respond to such requests/actions.
  12. Matthew 7:9 tn Grk “Or is there.”
  13. Matthew 7:10 sn The two questions of vv. 9-10 use a construction in Greek that expects a negative answer: “No parent would do this!”
  14. Matthew 7:11 tn The participle ὄντες (ontes) has been translated as a concessive adverbial participle: in spite of the fact that the hearers are “evil,” they still know how to give “good gifts” to their own children (see also ExSyn 634).
  15. Matthew 7:11 sn The provision of the good gifts is probably a reference to the wisdom and guidance supplied in response to repeated requests. The teaching as a whole stresses not that we get everything we want, but that God gives the good that we need.
  16. Matthew 7:12 tn Grk “Therefore in.” Here οὖν (oun) has not been translated.
  17. Matthew 7:12 tn This is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anthrōpos), referring to both males and females.
  18. Matthew 7:12 sn Jesus’ teaching as reflected in the phrase treat others as you would want them to treat you, known generally as the Golden Rule, is not completely unique in the ancient world, but here it is stated in its most emphatic, selfless form. It is stated negatively in Tobit 4:15, and can also be found in the Talmud in a story about the great rabbi Hillel, who is said to have told a Gentile who asked to be taught the Torah, “What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor; that is the whole Torah, while the rest is the commentary thereof; go and learn it” (b. Shabbat 31a).
  19. Matthew 7:12 tn Grk “is”; cf. CEV “This is what the Law and the Prophets are all about”; NIV “for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.”
  20. Matthew 7:13 sn The same verb is used in Matt 5:20, suggesting that the kingdom of heaven is to be understood here as the object.
  21. Matthew 7:14 tn See BDAG 1007 s.v. τίς for the translation of τί (ti) as an exclamation.
  22. Matthew 7:14 sn Here the destination is specified as life. In several places Matthew uses “life” or “eternal life” in proximity with “the kingdom of heaven,” suggesting a close relationship between the two concepts (compare Matt 25:34 with v. 46; Matt 19:16, 17, 29 with vv. 23, 24). Matthew consistently portrays “eternal life” as something a person enters in the world to come, whereas the Gospel of John sees “eternal life” as beginning in the present and continuing into the future (cf. John 5:24).
  23. Matthew 7:15 sn The identity of these false prophets is not specified, and this has led to a wide variety of suggested referents: the Pharisees, the Zealots, the Essenes (all roughly contemporaries of Jesus), later groups (representatives of Pauline Christianity, the Gnostics) or later individuals (Simon Magus mentioned in Acts 8:9-24, Bar Kokhba who led the Jewish revolt of A.D. 132-35), or the eschatological false prophets who will lead people astray in the end times (Matt 24:24). Of course, some of these suggestions assume a second century date for the composition (or redaction) of the Gospel of Matthew.
  24. Matthew 7:15 sn Sheep’s clothing…voracious wolves. Jesus uses a metaphor here to point out that these false prophets appear to be one thing, but in reality they are something quite different and dangerous.
  25. Matthew 7:16 tn Grk “They do not gather.” This has been simplified to the passive voice in the translation since the subject “they” is not specified further in the context.
  26. Matthew 7:16 tn The Greek construction anticipates a negative answer. This is indicated in the translation by the ‘tag’ question “are they?” at the end of the sentence.sn The statement illustrates the principle: That which cannot produce fruit does not produce fruit.
  27. Matthew 7:17 tn Grk “rotten.” The word σαπρός, modifying “tree” in both v. 17 and 18, can also mean “diseased” (L&N 65.28).
  28. Matthew 7:21 sn The double use of the vocative is normally used in situations of high emotion or emphasis. Even an emphatic confession like this one without corresponding action means little.
  29. Matthew 7:22 tn Grk “did we not in your name prophesy and in your name cast out demons and in your name do many powerful deeds.” The phrase “in your name” occurs before each of the verbs in the Greek text, making it somewhat emphatic, but the phrase was placed after the verbs in the translation for stylistic reasons.
  30. Matthew 7:23 tn Or “you who commit lawless deeds”; or “you who behave lawlessly”; Grk “workers of lawlessness.”
  31. Matthew 7:24 tn Grk “Therefore everyone.” Here οὖν (oun) has not been translated.
  32. Matthew 7:24 tn Grk “will be like.” The same phrase occurs in v. 26.
  33. Matthew 7:24 tn Here and in v. 26 the Greek text reads ἀνήρ (anēr), while the parallel account in Luke 6:47-49 uses ἄνθρωπος (anthrōpos) in vv. 48 and 49.
  34. Matthew 7:25 tn Grk “the rivers.”
  35. Matthew 7:27 tn Grk “and great was its fall.”
  36. Matthew 7:28 tn Grk “And it happened when.” The introductory phrase καὶ ἐγένετο (kai egeneto, “it happened that”) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.
  37. Matthew 7:29 sn Jesus’ teaching impressed the hearers with the directness of its claim; he taught with authority. A study of Jewish rabbinic interpretation shows that it was typical to cite a list of authorities to make one’s point. Jesus addressed the issues directly, in terms of his own understanding, without citing other teachers.
  38. Matthew 7:29 tn Or “their scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 2:4.

Matei 7
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014

Despre judecăţile aspre. Bârna şi paiul. Lucrurile sfinte

7 Nu(A) judecaţi, ca să nu fiţi judecaţi. 2 Căci cu ce judecată judecaţi, veţi fi judecaţi; şi(B) cu ce măsură măsuraţi, vi se va măsura. 3 De(C) ce vezi tu paiul din ochiul fratelui tău şi nu te uiţi cu băgare de seamă la bârna din ochiul tău? 4 Sau cum poţi zice fratelui tău: ‘Lasă-mă să scot paiul din ochiul tău’, şi, când colo, tu ai o bârnă într-al tău? 5 Făţarnicule, scoate întâi bârna din ochiul tău, şi atunci vei vedea desluşit să scoţi paiul din ochiul fratelui tău. 6 Să nu(D) daţi câinilor lucrurile sfinte şi să nu aruncaţi mărgăritarele voastre înaintea porcilor, ca nu cumva să le calce în picioare şi să se întoarcă să vă rupă.

Stăruinţa în rugăciune

7 Cereţi(E), şi vi se va da; căutaţi, şi veţi găsi; bateţi, şi vi se va deschide. 8 Căci oricine(F) cere capătă; cine caută găseşte; şi celui ce bate, i se deschide. 9 Cine(G) este omul acela dintre voi care, dacă-i cere fiul său o pâine, să-i dea o piatră? 10 Sau, dacă-i cere un peşte, să-i dea un şarpe? 11 Deci, dacă voi, care(H) sunteţi răi, ştiţi să daţi daruri bune copiilor voştri, cu cât mai mult Tatăl vostru, care este în ceruri, va da lucruri bune celor ce I le cer! 12 Tot ce(I) voiţi să vă facă vouă oamenii, faceţi-le şi voi la fel; căci în aceasta(J) sunt cuprinse Legea şi Prorocii.

Poarta cea strâmtă

13 Intraţi(K) pe poarta cea strâmtă. Căci largă este poarta, lată este calea care duce la pierzare şi mulţi sunt cei ce intră pe ea. 14 Dar strâmtă este poarta, îngustă este calea care duce la viaţă şi puţini sunt cei ce o află.

Prorocii mincinoşi

15 Păziţi-vă(L) de proroci mincinoşi. Ei(M) vin la voi îmbrăcaţi în haine de oi, dar pe dinăuntru sunt nişte lupi răpitori. 16 Îi veţi cunoaşte după(N) roadele lor. Culeg(O) oamenii struguri din spini sau smochine din mărăcini? 17 Tot aşa, orice(P) pom bun face roade bune, dar pomul rău face roade rele. 18 Pomul bun nu poate face roade rele, nici pomul rău nu poate face roade bune. 19 Orice(Q) pom care nu face roade bune este tăiat şi aruncat în foc. 20 Aşa că după roadele lor îi veţi cunoaşte.

Casa zidită pe stâncă

21 Nu oricine-Mi zice: ‘Doamne(R), Doamne!’ va intra în Împărăţia cerurilor, ci cel ce face voia Tatălui Meu, care este în ceruri. 22 Mulţi Îmi vor zice în ziua aceea: ‘Doamne, Doamne! N-am(S) prorocit noi în Numele Tău? N-am scos noi draci în Numele Tău? Şi n-am făcut noi multe minuni în Numele Tău?’ 23 Atunci(T), le voi spune curat: ‘Niciodată nu v-am cunoscut; depărtaţi-vă(U) de la Mine, voi toţi care lucraţi fărădelege’. 24 De aceea, pe oricine(V) aude aceste cuvinte ale Mele şi le face, îl voi asemăna cu un om cu judecată, care şi-a zidit casa pe stâncă. 25 A dat ploaia, au venit şuvoaiele, au suflat vânturile şi au bătut în casa aceea, dar ea nu s-a prăbuşit, pentru că avea temelia zidită pe stâncă. 26 Însă oricine aude aceste cuvinte ale Mele şi nu le face va fi asemănat cu un om nechibzuit, care şi-a zidit casa pe nisip. 27 A dat ploaia, au venit şuvoaiele, au suflat vânturile şi au izbit în casa aceea: ea s-a prăbuşit, şi prăbuşirea i-a fost mare.” 28 După ce a sfârşit Isus cuvântările acestea, noroadele au rămas uimite(W) de învăţătura Lui; 29 căci(X) El îi învăţa ca unul care avea putere, nu cum îi învăţau cărturarii lor.
