Acts 10
1 Now there was a certain man in Cesarea, named Cornelius, a centurion that called the Italian Band,
Na i Hiharia tetahi tangata, ko Koroniria te ingoa, he keneturio no te pu i kiia nei ko to Itari;
2 a man of piety, and one that feared God, with all his house; giving, also, much alms to the people, and praying to God continually.
He tangata karakia ia, e wehi ana i te Atua, ratou ko tona whare katoa, he maha ana mahi atawhai ki te iwi, me te inoi tonu ki te Atua.
3 He evidently saw, in a vision, about the ninth hour of the day, a messenger of God coming in to him, and saying to him, Cornelius!
I kite nui ia, he whakarehu, i te mea ka tata ki te iwa o nga haora o te ra, i tetahi anahera a te Atua, e haere mai ana ki a ia, e mea ana hoki ki a ia, E Koroniria.
4 And having fixed his eyes upon him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said to him, Your prayers and your alms are come up, as a memorial before God.
Na ka titiro matatau atu ia ki a ia, ka wehi, ka mea, he aha, e te Ariki? Ka ki tera ki a ia, Kua puta ake au inoi me au mahi atawhai, hei whakamahara ki te aroaro o te Atua.
5 And now send men to Joppa and bring hither Simon, whose surname is Peter:
Na tonoa aianei he tangata ki Hopa, ki te tiki i a Haimona, ko te rua nei o ona ingoa ko Pita.
6 he lodges with one Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the seaside.
He manuhiri ia na Haimona kaimahi hiako, i te taha nei o te moana tona whare.
7 As soon as the messenger, who spoke to Cornelius, was gone, he called two of his domestics, and a pious soldier, of them that waited upon him;
A, no te rironga atu o te anahera i korero nei ki a ia, ka karangatia e ia tokorua o ana pononga tane, me tetahi hoia karakia no te hunga e mahi tonu ana ki a ia;
8 and having related to them all these things, he sent them to Joppa.
A, ka oti nga mea katoa te korero ki a ratou, ka tonoa ratou e ia ki Hopa.
9 On the next day, while they were on their journey, and drew near the city, Peter went up to the top of the house to pray, about the sixth hour.
Na i te aonga ake, i a ratou e haere ana, e whakatata atu ana ki te pa, ka kake a Pita ki runga ki te tuanui, i te ono o nga haora, ki te inoi:
10 And he was hungry, and would have taken a little refreshment; but while they were preparing, he fell into an ecstasy;
Na ka pa ki a ia te matekai, ka mea ki te kai: otira i a ratou e taka mai ana, ka tau iho te wairua matakite ki a ia;
11 and he saw heaven opened, and something descending like a great sheet, fastened at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
Na ka kite ia i te rangi kua tuwhera, me tetahi mea e heke iho ana, he mea tuku iho ma nga pito e wha, ki te whenua:
12 in which there were all sorts of things, even four-footed animals of the earth, and wild beasts, and reptiles, and fowls of the air.
I roto i taua mea nga momo kararehe waewae wha katoa, nga mea ngokingoki katoa o te whenua, me nga manu o te rangi.
13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter, kill, and eat.
I reira ka puta mai he reo ki a ia, Whakatika, e Pita; patua, kainga.
14 But Peter said, By no means, Lord; for I have never eat anything which is common or unclean.
Ko Pita ia i mea, Kahore, e te Ariki; kiano ahau i kai i te mea noa, i te mea poke ranei.
15 And the voice said to him again, the second time, Those things which God has cleansed, do not you call common.
Ka puta mai ano he reo ki a ia, ka tuaruatia, Ko a te Atua i mea ai kia ma, kaua e whakanoatia e koe.
16 And this was done three times, and the sheet was taken up again into heaven.
E toru meatanga o tenei: a i reira tonu ka tangohia atu taua mea ki te rangi.
17 While Peter was pondering in himself, what the vision, which he had seen, might import; behold, the men, who were sent from Cornelius, having inquired out the house of Simon, stood at the door;
I taua wa tonu, i a Pita e whakaaroaro ana i roto i a ia ki te tikanga o tenei whakakitenga, na, ko nga tangata i tonoa mai ra e Koroniria, tera kua uiui ki te whare o Haimona, tu ana i mua i te kuwaha,
18 and calling, they asked, if Simon, whose surname was Peter, lodged there.
Karanga ana mai, ui ana, kei reira ranei e noho ana a Pita, te rua nei o ona ingoa ko Haimona.
19 Now, as Peter was reflecting on this vision; the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men are inquiring for you:
A, i a Pita e whakaaro ana mo taua whakakitenga, ka mea te Wairua ki a ia, Nana, tokotoru enei tangata e rapu ana i a koe.
20 arise, therefore, go down, and go with them without hesitation; for I have sent them.
Na whakatika, heke atu, haere tahi koutou, kei ruarua; naku hoki ratou i tono mai.
21 Then Peter went down to the men, who were sent to him from Cornelius, and said, Behold, I am the man whom you seek; what is the cause of your coming?
Na ka heke atu a Pita ki aua tangata, ka mea, Na, ko ahau tenei e rapu nei koutou: he aha te take o ta koutou haere mai?
22 And they said, Cornelius, the centurion, a righteous man, who fears God, and has a character attested by all the Jewish people, has been instructed, by a holy messenger, to send for you to his house, and to hear words from you.
Na ka mea ratou, Ko Koroniria ra, he keneturio, he tangata tika, e wehi ana i te Atua, e korerotia paitia ana e te iwi katoa o nga Hurai, kua whakamaharatia ia e te Atua na tetahi anahera tapu kia tikina atu koe ki tona whare, kia rongo ia ki et ahi kupu i a koe.
23 Having, therefore, called them in, he entertained them, and the next day set out with them: and some of the brethren, who were of Joppa, went with him.
Na karanga ana ia i a ratou ki roto hei manuhiri mana. A, i te aonga ake, ka whakatika ia ka haere atu me ratou, a ko etahi o nga teina no Hopa i haere tahi me ia.
24 And the next day they entered into Cesarea; and Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relations and intimate friends.
A ao ake ka tomo ratou ki Hiharia. Na ko Koronira e tatari mai ana ki a ratou, he mea karanga nana kia huihui mai ona whanaunga me ona hoa tupu.
25 Now, as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and prostrating himself at his feet, made obeisance.
A, no ka tomo atu a Pita, ka tutaki a Koroniria ki a ia, ka hinga ki ona waewae, ka koropiko ki a ia.
26 But Peter raised him up, saying, Arise; I also am a man.
Otira ka whakaara ake a Pita i a ia, ka mea, E tu ki runga; he tangata nei ano ahau.
27 And discoursing with him, he went in, and found many gathered together.
Na i a ia e korero ana ki a ia, ka tomo atu ia ki roto, ka kite i te menenga tokomaha,
28 And he said to them, You know that it is unlawful for a man that is a Jew to join with, or to come into the house of, one of another nation; nevertheless, God has shown me that I am to call no man common or unclean.
Ka mea atu ki a ratou, E matau ana koutou e kore e tika kia huihui te tangata o nga Hurai, kia haere atu ranei ki te tangata iwi ke: otiia kua whakakitea e te Atua ki ahau kia kaua e kiia tetahi tangata he noa, he poke.
29 Wherefore, when I was sent for, I came without debate: I ask, therefore, on what account you have sent for me?
Koia ahau i haere mai ai, kihai i aha i te tikinga ake i ahau. Na ka ui nei ahau, he aha te take i tikina ake ai ahau?
30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago, I was fasting till this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house; and, behold, a man stood before me in bright raiment,
Ka mea a Koroniria, Ka wha nga ra inaianei tae mai ki tenei haora, e whakarite ana ahau i te inoinga o te iwa o nga haora i roto i toku whare; na, ko te tangata e tu ana i toku aroaro, kanapa tonu te kakahu,
31 and said, Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your alms are remembered before God:
E mea ana, E Koroniria, kua rangona tau inoi, a e maharatia ana au mahi atawhai i te aroaro o te Atua.
32 send, therefore, to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he lodges in the house of one Simon, a tanner, by the seaside; who, when he is come, shall speak to you.
Na, tonoa he tangata ki Hopa, ka karanga ki a koe i a Haimona, te rua nei o ona ingoa ko Pita: he manuhiri ia i roto i te whare o Haimona kaimahi hiako, i te taha moana.
33 Immediately, therefore, I sent to you, and you have done well in coming. Now, therefore, we are all here present before God, to hear all things which God has given to you in charge.
I reira tonu ka tono tangata atu ahau ki a koe; na he pai rawa tou haerenga mai. No reira kei konei katoa matou kei te aroaro o te Atua, whakarongo ai ki nga mea katoa kua whakahaua e te Ariki ki a koe.
34 Then Peter, opening his mouth, said, Of a truth, I perceive that God is no respecter of persons;
Na ka puaki te mangai o Pita, ka mea, he pono ka kite ahau kahore a te Atua whakapai kanohi:
35 but, in every nation, he that fears him, and works of righteousness, is acceptable to him.
Otiia i roto i nga tini iwi ko te tangata e wehi ana ki a ia, a e mahi ana i te tika, ka paingia e ia.
36 This is that message which he sent to the children of Israel; proclaiming the glad tidings of peace by Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.
Ko te kupu i tukua mai e ia ki nga tamariki a Iharaira, he kauwhau i te rongopai o te rangimarie na Ihu Karaiti: ko ia nei te Ariki o te katoa:
37 You know the report there was, through all Judea, which began from Galilee, after the immersion which John preached,
Ko taua kupu, kei te mohio koutou, i kauwhautia ra puta noa i Huria katoa, i timata mai i Kariri, i muri o te iriiri i kauwhautia e Hoani;
38 concerning Jesus of Nazareth; how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit, and with power; who went about doing good, and healing all who were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him.
Ara ko Ihu o Nahareta, ta te Atua whakawahinga i a ia ki te Wairua Tapu, ki te kaha: a haereere ana ia ki te mahi i te pai, ki te whakaora i te hunga katoa i pehia e te rewera; no te mea i a ia te Atua.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did, both in the region of the Jews, and in Jerusalem: whom they slew, hanging him on a tree.
Ko matou hoki nga kaiwhakaatu o nga mea katoa i mea ai ia ki te whenua o nga Hurai, ki Hiruharama hoki: a whakamatea ana ia e ratou, he mea whakairi ki runga ki te rakau.
40 This very person God raised up, on the third day, and granted him to become manifest;
Na ko ia i whakaarahia ake e te Atua i te toru o nga ra, a meinga ana ia kia kitea nuitia,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses before appointed by God, even to us, who have eat and drunk with him after he arose from the dead.
Ehara i te mea e te iwi katoa, engari e te hunga i whiriwhiria i mua e te Atua, ara e matou, i kai tahi nei, i inu tahi nei me ia, i muri i tona aranga ake i te hunga mate.
42 And he has given in charge to us to proclaim to the people, and to testify that it is he who is appointed by God, to be the judge of the living and the dead.
I whai kupu hoki ia ki a matou kia kauwhau ki te iwi, kia whakaatu, ko ia ta te Atua i whakarite ai hei kaiwhakawa mo nga tangata ora, mo nga tangata mate.
43 To him all the prophets bear witness, that every one who believes on him, shall receive forgiveness of sins by his name.
He kaiwhakaatu nga poropiti katoa mona, ara ma tona ingoa ka whiwhi ai ki te murunga hara nga tangata katoa e whakarongo ana ki a ia.
44 While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who were hearing the word:
I a Pita ano e korero ana i enei kupu, ka tau iho te Wairua Tapu ki te hunga katoa e whakarongo ana ki te kupu.
45 and they of the circumcision, who believed, as many as came with Peter, were astonished that the gift of the Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles also:
A, ko te hunga o te kotinga i whakapono nei, ko nga mea i haere tahi mai me Pita, miharo ana no te mea kua ringihia tahitia iho te Wairua Tapu ki nga Tauiwi.
46 for they heard them speaking in diverse languages, and glorifying God.
I rongo hoki ratou ki nga reo i korero ai ratou, i whakanui ai i te Atua. I reira ka whakahoki a Pita,
47 Then Peter answered, Can any one forbid water, that these persons should not be immersed, who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?
E ahei ranei te whakakahore e tetahi te wai, kei iriiria enei kua whiwhi tahi nei me tatou ki te Wairua Tapu?
48 And he ordered them to be immersed in the name of the Lord. And they entreated him to continue with them several days.
Na ka whakahau ia kia iriiria ratou i runga i te ingoa o Ihu Karaiti. I reira ka tohe ratou ki a ia kia noho mo etahi ra.
