2. DISCORSO EVANGELICO
Le beatitudini
5 Vedendo le folle, Gesù salì sulla montagna e, messosi a sedere, gli si avvicinarono i suoi discepoli. 2 Prendendo allora la parola, li ammaestrava dicendo:
3 «Beati i poveri in spirito,
perché di essi è il regno dei cieli.
4 Beati gli afflitti,
perché saranno consolati.
5 Beati i miti,
perché erediteranno la terra.
6 Beati quelli che hanno fame e sete della giustizia,
perché saranno saziati.
7 Beati i misericordiosi,
perché troveranno misericordia.
8 Beati i puri di cuore,
perché vedranno Dio.
9 Beati gli operatori di pace,
perché saranno chiamati figli di Dio.
10 Beati i perseguitati per causa della giustizia,
perché di essi è il regno dei cieli.
11 Beati voi quando vi insulteranno, vi perseguiteranno e, mentendo, diranno ogni sorta di male contro di voi per causa mia. 12 Rallegratevi ed esultate, perché grande è la vostra ricompensa nei cieli. Così infatti hanno perseguitato i profeti prima di voi.
Sale della terra e luce del mondo
13 Voi siete il sale della terra; ma se il sale perdesse il sapore, con che cosa lo si potrà render salato? A null'altro serve che ad essere gettato via e calpestato dagli uomini.
14 Voi siete la luce del mondo; non può restare nascosta una città collocata sopra un monte, 15 né si accende una lucerna per metterla sotto il moggio, ma sopra il lucerniere perché faccia luce a tutti quelli che sono nella casa. 16 Così risplenda la vostra luce davanti agli uomini, perché vedano le vostre opere buone e rendano gloria al vostro Padre che è nei cieli.
Il compimento della legge
17 Non pensate che io sia venuto ad abolire la Legge o i Profeti; non son venuto per abolire, ma per dare compimento. 18 In verità vi dico: finché non siano passati il cielo e la terra, non passerà neppure un iota o un segno dalla legge, senza che tutto sia compiuto. 19 Chi dunque trasgredirà uno solo di questi precetti, anche minimi, e insegnerà agli uomini a fare altrettanto, sarà considerato minimo nel regno dei cieli. Chi invece li osserverà e li insegnerà agli uomini, sarà considerato grande nel regno dei cieli.
La nuova giustizia superiore all'antica
20 Poiché io vi dico: se la vostra giustizia non supererà quella degli scribi e dei farisei, non entrerete nel regno dei cieli.
21 Avete inteso che fu detto agli antichi: Non uccidere; chi avrà ucciso sarà sottoposto a giudizio. 22 Ma io vi dico: chiunque si adira con il proprio fratello, sarà sottoposto a giudizio. Chi poi dice al fratello: stupido, sarà sottoposto al sinedrio; e chi gli dice: pazzo, sarà sottoposto al fuoco della Geenna.
23 Se dunque presenti la tua offerta sull'altare e lì ti ricordi che tuo fratello ha qualche cosa contro di te, 24 lascia lì il tuo dono davanti all'altare e và prima a riconciliarti con il tuo fratello e poi torna ad offrire il tuo dono.
25 Mettiti presto d'accordo con il tuo avversario mentre sei per via con lui, perché l'avversario non ti consegni al giudice e il giudice alla guardia e tu venga gettato in prigione. 26 In verità ti dico: non uscirai di là finché tu non abbia pagato fino all'ultimo spicciolo!
27 Avete inteso che fu detto: Non commettere adulterio; 28 ma io vi dico: chiunque guarda una donna per desiderarla, ha gia commesso adulterio con lei nel suo cuore.
29 Se il tuo occhio destro ti è occasione di scandalo, cavalo e gettalo via da te: conviene che perisca uno dei tuoi membri, piuttosto che tutto il tuo corpo venga gettato nella Geenna. 30 E se la tua mano destra ti è occasione di scandalo, tagliala e gettala via da te: conviene che perisca uno dei tuoi membri, piuttosto che tutto il tuo corpo vada a finire nella Geenna.
31 Fu pure detto: Chi ripudia la propria moglie, le dia l'atto di ripudio; 32 ma io vi dico: chiunque ripudia sua moglie, eccetto il caso di concubinato, la espone all'adulterio e chiunque sposa una ripudiata, commette adulterio.
33 Avete anche inteso che fu detto agli antichi: Non spergiurare, ma adempi con il Signore i tuoi giuramenti; 34 ma io vi dico: non giurate affatto: né per il cielo, perché è il trono di Dio; 35 né per la terra, perché è lo sgabello per i suoi piedi; né per Gerusalemme, perché è la città del gran re. 36 Non giurare neppure per la tua testa, perché non hai il potere di rendere bianco o nero un solo capello. 37 Sia invece il vostro parlare sì, sì; no, no; il di più viene dal maligno.
38 Avete inteso che fu detto: Occhio per occhio e dente per dente; 39 ma io vi dico di non opporvi al malvagio; anzi se uno ti percuote la guanciadestra, tu porgigli anche l'altra; 40 e a chi ti vuol chiamare in giudizio per toglierti la tunica, tu lascia anche il mantello. 41 E se uno ti costringerà a fare un miglio, tu fanne con lui due. 42 Dà a chi ti domanda e a chi desidera da te un prestito non volgere le spalle.
43 Avete inteso che fu detto: Amerai il tuo prossimo e odierai il tuo nemico; 44 ma io vi dico: amate i vostri nemici e pregate per i vostri persecutori, 45 perché siate figli del Padre vostro celeste, che fa sorgere il suo sole sopra i malvagi e sopra i buoni, e fa piovere sopra i giusti e sopra gli ingiusti. 46 Infatti se amate quelli che vi amano, quale merito ne avete? Non fanno così anche i pubblicani? 47 E se date il saluto soltanto ai vostri fratelli, che cosa fate di straordinario? Non fanno così anche i pagani? 48 Siate voi dunque perfetti come è perfetto il Padre vostro celeste.

Besjeda na gori
5 Ugledavši mnoštvo, on uzađe na goru. I kad sjede, pristupiše mu njegovi učenici, 2 a on otvori usta svoja i stade ih poučavati:
Blaženstva
3 »Blaženi siromasi u duhu; njihovo je kraljevstvo nebesko!
4 Blaženi koji žaluju; oni će biti utješeni!
5 Blaženi krotki; oni će baštiniti zemlju!
6 Blaženi gladni i žedni pravednosti; oni će biti nasićeni!
7 Blaženi milosrdni; oni će milosrđe zadobiti!
8 Blaženi koji su čista srca; oni će Boga gledati!
9 Blaženi mirotvorci; oni će biti nazvani sinovima Božjim!
10 Blaženi progonjeni zbog pravednosti; njihovo je kraljevstvo nebesko!
11 Blaženi ste kad vas, zbog mene, pogrde i prognaju, i kad protiv vas svakojako zlo lažno izreknu.[a] 12 Radujte se i klikćite; velika je plaća vaša na nebesima! Jer tako su progonili i proroke prije vas.«
Sol i svjetlo
13 »Vi ste sol zemlje. Ali ako sol obljutavi, čime će se ona osoliti? Ona više nije ni za što, osim da se baci van i da je ljudi gaze.
14 Vi ste svjetlo svijeta. Ne može se skriti grad koji leži na gori. 15 Niti se pali svjetiljka i stavlja pod posudu, nego na svijećnjak; onda svijetli svima u kući. 16 Tako neka vaše svjetlo svijetli pred ljudima da vide vaša dobra djela i proslave Oca vašega koji je na nebesima.«
Ispunjenje Zakona i Proroka
17 »Ne mislite da sam došao dokinuti Zakon ili Proroke. Nisam došao dokinuti, nego ispuniti. 18 Jer kažem vam, zaista, dok nebo i zemlja ne prođu, ne, ni jedno slovce, niti jedna crtica iz Zakona neće proći dok se sve ne ostvari. 19 Tko dakle dokine i jednu od ovih najmanjih zapovijedi, i tome nauči ljude, najmanjim će se zvati u kraljevstvu nebeskome. A tko ih bude izvršavao i naučavao, on velikim će se zvati u kraljevstvu nebeskom.
20 Jer, kažem vam, ako pravednost vaša ne bude veća od pravednosti pismoznanaca i farizeja, zasigurno nećete ući u kraljevstvo nebesko.«
Ubojstvo
21 »Čuli ste da je rečeno starima: 'Ne ubij!' Tko ubije, bit će predan sudu. 22 A ja vam kažem: Svaki koji se gnjevi na svojega brata bit će predan sudu. I svaki koji bratu kaže: 'Glupane!', bit će predan Vijeću. A tko rekne: 'Budalo!', bit će predan ognju paklenom.[b]
23 Ako dakle prinosiš dar na žrtvenik i ondje se sjetiš da tvoj brat ima nešto protiv tebe, 24 ostavi svoj dar ondje pred žrtvenikom, idi i najprije se pomiri sa svojim bratom, a onda se vrati i prinesi svoj dar.
25 Brzo rješavaj što imaš sa svojim protivnikom dok si još na putu s njime, da te ne preda sucu, a sudac stražaru, pa da te u tamnicu ne bace. 26 Zaista, kažem ti, nećeš izaći nikako odande dok ne platiš i posljednji novčić.«
Preljub
27 »Čuli ste da je rečeno: 'Ne čini preljuba!' 28 A ja vam kažem: Tko god s požudom pogleda ženu, već je s njom počinio preljub u svojemu srcu. 29 Ako te tvoje desno oko sablažnjuje, iskopaj ga i baci od sebe, jer ti je bolje da propadne jedan od tvojih udova nego da ti cijelo tijelo bude bačeno u pakao. 30 I ako te tvoja desna ruka sablažnjuje, odsijeci je i baci od sebe, jer ti je bolje da propadne jedan od tvojih udova nego da ti cijelo tijelo u pakao ode.«
Rastava
31 »A i rečeno je: 'Tko otpusti svoju ženu, neka joj dade otpusni list.' 32 A ja vam kažem: Tko god otpusti svoju ženu, osim zbog bluda, navodi je na preljub. I tko se oženi otpuštenom, čini preljub.«
Zakletva
33 »Čuli ste još da je rečeno starima: 'Ne zaklinji se krivo, nego izvrši Gospodinu svoje zakletve.' 34 A ja vam kažem: Ne kunite se nikako: ni nebom, jer je prijestolje Božje; 35 ni zemljom, jer je podnožje njegovim nogama; ni Jeruzalemom, jer je grad Kralja velikoga. 36 Ni glavom se svojom ne kuni, jer nijedne vlasi ne možeš učiniti bijelom ili crnom. 37 Neka vaša riječ bude: 'da, da - ne, ne!' A što je više od toga, od Zloga je.«
Odmazda
38 »Čuli ste da je rečeno: 'Oko za oko', i, 'zub za zub.' 39 A ja vam kažem: Ne opirite se Zlomu. Nego udari li te tko po tvom desnom obrazu, okreni mu i drugi. 40 I ako se tko hoće parničiti s tobom da se domogne tvoje donje haljine, ostavi mu i ogrtač. 41 Ako li te tko primora jednu milju, pođi s njim dvije. 42 Tko od tebe ište, podaj mu! I ne okreni se od onoga koji hoće da mu pozajmiš.«
Ljubav prema neprijatelju
43 »Čuli ste da je rečeno: 'Ljubi bližnjega svojega, a mrzi svoga neprijatelja.' 44 A ja vam kažem: 'Ljubite svoje neprijatelje i molite za one koji vas progone 45 kako biste postali sinovi Oca svojega koji je na nebesima; jer On čini da njegovo sunce izlazi nad zlima i dobrima, i da kiša pada pravednima i nepravednima. 46 Jer ako ljubite one koji ljube vas, kakvu li plaću imate? Ne čine li tako i carinici? 47 I ako pozdravljate samo svoju braću, što posebno činite? Ne čine li tako i pogani? 48 Budite dakle savršeni, kao što je savršen Otac vaš nebeski!'«

The Sermon on the Mount
5 Jesus saw the crowds and went up a hill, where he sat down. His disciples gathered around him, 2 and he began to teach them:
True Happiness(A)
3 “Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor;
the Kingdom of heaven belongs to them!
4 (B)“Happy are those who mourn;
God will comfort them!
5 (C)“Happy are those who are humble;
they will receive what God has promised!
6 (D)“Happy are those whose greatest desire is to do what God requires;
God will satisfy them fully!
7 “Happy are those who are merciful to others;
God will be merciful to them!
8 (E)“Happy are the pure in heart;
they will see God!
9 “Happy are those who work for peace;
God will call them his children!
10 (F)“Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires;
the Kingdom of heaven belongs to them!
11 (G)“Happy are you when people insult you and persecute you and tell all kinds of evil lies against you because you are my followers. 12 (H)Be happy and glad, for a great reward is kept for you in heaven. This is how the prophets who lived before you were persecuted.
Salt and Light(I)
13 (J)“You are like salt for the whole human race. But if salt loses its saltiness, there is no way to make it salty again. It has become worthless, so it is thrown out and people trample on it.
14 (K)“You are like light for the whole world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid. 15 (L)No one lights a lamp and puts it under a bowl; instead it is put on the lampstand, where it gives light for everyone in the house. 16 (M)In the same way your light must shine before people, so that they will see the good things you do and praise your Father in heaven.
Teaching about the Law
17 “Do not think that I have come to do away with the Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets. I have not come to do away with them, but to make their teachings come true. 18 (N)Remember that as long as heaven and earth last, not the least point nor the smallest detail of the Law will be done away with—not until the end of all things.[a] 19 So then, whoever disobeys even the least important of the commandments and teaches others to do the same, will be least in the Kingdom of heaven. On the other hand, whoever obeys the Law and teaches others to do the same, will be great in the Kingdom of heaven. 20 I tell you, then, that you will be able to enter the Kingdom of heaven only if you are more faithful than the teachers of the Law and the Pharisees in doing what God requires.
Teaching about Anger
21 (O)“You have heard that people were told in the past, ‘Do not commit murder; anyone who does will be brought to trial.’ 22 But now I tell you: if you are angry[b] with your brother you will be brought to trial, if you call your brother ‘You good-for-nothing!’ you will be brought before the Council, and if you call your brother a worthless fool you will be in danger of going to the fire of hell. 23 So if you are about to offer your gift to God at the altar and there you remember that your brother has something against you, 24 leave your gift there in front of the altar, go at once and make peace with your brother, and then come back and offer your gift to God.
25 “If someone brings a lawsuit against you and takes you to court, settle the dispute while there is time, before you get to court. Once you are there, you will be turned over to the judge, who will hand you over to the police, and you will be put in jail. 26 There you will stay, I tell you, until you pay the last penny of your fine.
Teaching about Adultery
27 (P)“You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’ 28 But now I tell you: anyone who looks at a woman and wants to possess her is guilty of committing adultery with her in his heart. 29 (Q)So if your right eye causes you to sin, take it out and throw it away! It is much better for you to lose a part of your body than to have your whole body thrown into hell. 30 (R)If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away! It is much better for you to lose one of your limbs than to have your whole body go off to hell.
Teaching about Divorce(S)
31 (T)“It was also said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a written notice of divorce.’ 32 (U)But now I tell you: if a man divorces his wife for any cause other than her unfaithfulness, then he is guilty of making her commit adultery if she marries again; and the man who marries her commits adultery also.
Teaching about Vows
33 (V)“You have also heard that people were told in the past, ‘Do not break your promise, but do what you have vowed to the Lord to do.’ 34 (W)But now I tell you: do not use any vow when you make a promise. Do not swear by heaven, for it is God's throne; 35 (X)nor by earth, for it is the resting place for his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 Do not even swear by your head, because you cannot make a single hair white or black. 37 Just say ‘Yes’ or ‘No’—anything else you say comes from the Evil One.
Teaching about Revenge(Y)
38 (Z)“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But now I tell you: do not take revenge on someone who wrongs you. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, let him slap your left cheek too. 40 And if someone takes you to court to sue you for your shirt, let him have your coat as well. 41 And if one of the occupation troops forces you to carry his pack one mile, carry it two miles. 42 When someone asks you for something, give it to him; when someone wants to borrow something, lend it to him.
Love for Enemies(AA)
43 (AB)“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your friends, hate your enemies.’ 44 But now I tell you: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 (AC)so that you may become the children of your Father in heaven. For he makes his sun to shine on bad and good people alike, and gives rain to those who do good and to those who do evil. 46 Why should God reward you if you love only the people who love you? Even the tax collectors do that! 47 And if you speak only to your friends, have you done anything out of the ordinary? Even the pagans do that! 48 (AD)You must be perfect—just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

Introduction to the Sermon on the Mount
5 Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2 and he began to teach them.
The Beatitudes(A)
He said:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.(B)
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.(C)
5 Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.(D)
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.(E)
7 Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.(F)
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,(G)
for they will see God.(H)
9 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)
