2 Thessalonians 2
1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the comming of our Lord Iesus Christ, and by our assembling vnto him,
Na, he mea tenei na matou ki a koutou, e oku teina, mo te taenga mai o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti, mo to tatou huihuinga atu ano ki a ia;
2 That ye be not suddenly mooued from your minde, nor troubled neither by spirit, nor by worde, nor by letter, as it were from vs, as though the day of Christ were at hand.
Kei hohoro te rurea o o koutou hinengaro, kei ohorere ranei i ta te wairua, i ta te kupu, i ta te pukapuka ranei e kiia ana na matou, e mea ana kua tae tonu mai inaianei te ra o te Ariki.
3 Let no man deceiue you by any meanes: for that day shall not come, except there come a departing first, and that that man of sinne be disclosed, euen the sonne of perdition,
Kei tinihangatia koutou i tetahi mea e te tangata: e kore hoki e tae wawe mai, kia matua tae mai te takanga atu, kia whakakitea mai ano hoki te tangata o te hara, te tama a te whakangaro:
4 Which is an aduersarie, and exalteth him selfe against all that is called God, or that is worshipped: so that he doeth sit as God in the Temple of God, shewing him selfe that he is God.
He hoariri nei ia, e whakakake ana i a ia ki runga ake i nga mea katoa e kiia ana he Atua, e karakiatia ana; kia noho ai ia i te whare tapu o te Atua, kia whakaatu ai i a ia ko ia te Atua.
5 Remember ye not, that when I was yet with you, I tolde you these things?
Kahore ranei koutou e mahara i ahau ano i a koutou, i korerotia e ahau enei mea ki a koutou?
6 And nowe ye knowe what withholdeth that he might be reueiled in his time.
Na ka matau koutou inaianei ki te mea e arai ana, kia whakakitea mai ra ano ia a tona taima.
7 For the mysterie of iniquitie doeth already worke: onely he which nowe withholdeth, shall let till he be taken out of the way.
No te mea kei te mahi inaianei te mea huna o te kino, otira tera tetahi kei te arai inaianei, kia whakawateatia rawatia ano ia.
8 And then shall that wicked man be reueiled, whome the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of his mouth, and shall abolish with the brightnes of his comming,
Ko reira whakakitea mai ai taua tangata kino, e whakangaromia e te Ariki ki te ha o tona mangai, e whakakahoretia ki te putanga nui o tona taenga mai;
9 Euen him whose comming is by the effectuall working of Satan, with all power, and signes, and lying wonders,
Ara a ia pu, i rite nei tona taenga mai ki te mahinga a Hatana, i runga i te mana, i nga tohu, i nga merekara teka,
10 And in al deceiuablenes of vnrighteousnes, among them that perish, because they receiued not the loue of the trueth, that they might be saued.
I nga mahi tinihanga katoa hoki o te he, i roto i te hunga e whakangaromia ana; no te mea kihai i riro i a ratou te aroha o te pono, kia ora ai ratou.
11 And therefore God shall send them strong delusion, that they should beleeue lies,
Mo konei hoki ka tukua atu e te Atua ki a ratou he pohehe e mahi ana, kia whakapono ai ratou ki te teka:
12 That all they might be damned which beleeued not the trueth, but had pleasure in vnrighteousnes.
Kia tukua ai ki te he te hunga katoa kahore i whakapono ki te pono, i ahuareka ke ki te he.
13 But we ought to giue thankes alway to God for you, brethren beloued of the Lord, because that God hath from the beginning chosen you to saluation, through sanctification of the Spirit, and the faith of trueth,
Tika tonu ia kia whakawhetai atu matou ki te Atua mo koutou i nga wa katoa, e oku teina e arohaina nei e te Ariki, he mea whiriwhiri na hoki koutou na te Atua no te timatanga ra ano mo te ora, i runga i te whakatapu a te Wairua, i runga ano i te whakapono ki te pono;
14 Whereunto he called you by our Gospel, to obtaine the glory of our Lord Iesus Christ.
Ko te mea tena i karangatia ai koutou e ia, he mea na to matou rongopai, ara kia whiwhi ki te kororia o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti.
15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast and keepe the instructions, which ye haue bene taught, either by worde, or by our Epistle.
Heoi, e oku teina, e tu koutou: kia mau ki nga whakarerenga iho i whakaakona ai koutou e te kupu, e ta matou pukapuka ranei.
16 Now the same Iesus Christ our Lord; and our God euen the Father which hath loued vs, and hath giuen vs euerlasting consolation and good hope through grace, (aiōnios g166)
Na, ma to tatou Ariki, ma Ihu Karaiti pu ano, ma te Atua, ma to tatou Matua, i aroha mai nei ki a tatou, i homai nei i te whakamarie mutungakore, me te mea pai e tumanakohia atu nei, he meatanga na te aroha noa, (aiōnios g166)
17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in euery word and good worke.
Mana e whakamarie o koutou ngakau, mana koutou e whakau ki runga ki nga kupu, ki nga mahi pai katoa.
