Глава 5

  • 1. And seeing the multitudes, he went up into the mountain: and when he had sat down, his disciples came unto him:
  • 2. and he opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
  • 3. Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
  • 4. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
  • 5. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
  • 6. Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
  • 7. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
  • 8. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
  • 9. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called sons of God.
  • 10. Blessed are they that have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
  • 11. Blessed are ye when [men] shall reproach you, and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
  • 12. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets that were before you.
  • 13. Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.
  • 14. Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid.
  • 15. Neither do [men] light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the stand; and it shineth unto all that are in the house.
  • 16. Even so let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
  • 17. Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfil.
  • 18. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the law, till all things be accomplished.
  • 19. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
  • 20. For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed [the righteousness] of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
  • 21. Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
  • 22. but I say unto you, that every one who is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council; and whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of the hell of fire.
  • 23. If therefore thou art offering thy gift at the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee,
  • 24. leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way, first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
  • 25. Agree with thine adversary quickly, while thou art with him in the way; lest haply the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
  • 26. Verily I say unto thee, thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the last farthing.
  • 27. Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
  • 28. but I say unto you, that every one that looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
  • 29. And if thy right eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell.
  • 30. And if thy right hand causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body go into hell.
  • 31. It was said also, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
  • 32. but I say unto you, that every one that putteth away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, maketh her an adulteress: and whosoever shall marry her when she is put away committeth adultery.
  • 33. Again, ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
  • 34. but I say unto you, swear not at all; neither by the heaven, for it is the throne of God;
  • 35. nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
  • 36. Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black.
  • 37. But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: and whatsoever is more than these is of the evil [one].
  • 38. Ye have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
  • 39. but I say unto you, resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smiteth thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
  • 40. And if any man would go to law with thee, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
  • 41. And whosoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.
  • 42. Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
  • 43. Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy:
  • 44. but I say unto you, love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you;
  • 45. that ye may be sons of your Father who is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust.
  • 46. For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
  • 47. And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others?] do not even the Gentiles the same?
  • 48. Ye therefore shall be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
