Romans 15
1 Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
Ko te mahi tika ma tatou, ma te hunga kaha, he pikau i nga ngoikoretanga o te hunga kahakore; kaua hoki e whai i ta tatou ake i ahuareka ia.
2 Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.
Me whai tena, tena o tatou kia ahuareka mai tona hoa, tona hoa mo te mea e pai ana hei hanga i tona whakapono.
3 For even Messiah did not please himself. But, as it is written, "The insults of those who insult you fell on me."
Kihai hoki a te Karaiti i whai ki tana ake i ahuareka ai; engari i rite ki te mea kua oti te tuhituhi, Ko nga tawainga a te hunga e tawai ana i a koe kua tau ki ahau.
4 For whatever things were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
Ko nga mea katoa hoki i tuhituhia i mua he mea tuhituhi hei whakaako i a tatou, kia whai tumanakohanga ai tatou, i te mea ka whakamanawanui, ka whakamarietia hoki e nga karaipiture.
5 Now the God of patience and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Messiah Yeshua,
Heoi ma te Atua o te manawanui, o te whakamarie, e hoatu ki a koutou kia kotahi te whakaaro o tetahi ki tetahi, kia rite ki ta Karaiti Ihu:
6 that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
Kia kotahi ai te whakaaro, kia kotahi ai te mangai, e whakakororia ai koutou i te Atua, ara i te Matua o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti.
7 Therefore accept one another, even as Messiah also accepted you, to the glory of God.
Na, me whakahoa koutou tetahi ki tetahi, kia rite ki a te Karaiti i mea nei i a tatou hei hoa mona, kia whai kororia ai te Atua.
8 Now I say that Messiah has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,
Ko taku kupu hoki tenei, i meinga a te Karaiti hei minita ki te kotinga, he whakaaro ki te pono o te Atua, kia u ai nga mea i whakaaria ki nga matua:
9 and that the non-Jews might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "therefore I will give praise to you among the non-Jews, and sing to your name."
Kia whakakororia ai hoki nga Tauiwi i te Atua mo tana mahi tohu, kia pera ai me te mea i tuhituhia, Mo konei ka whakawhetai ahau ki a koe i waenganui o nga tauiwi, ka himene ki tou ingoa.
10 Again he says, "Rejoice, you nations, with his people."
Tenei ano tetahi kupu ana, Kia hari tahi, e nga Tauiwi, me tana iwi.
11 Again, "Praise the Lord, all you nations. Let all the peoples praise him."
Tenei ano hoki, Whakamoemititia te Ariki, e nga Tauiwi katoa; whakamoemititia ano ia, e nga iwi katoa.
12 Again, Isaiah says, "There will be the root of Jesse, he who arises to rule over the peoples; in him will the nations hope."
E mea ana hoki a Ihaia, Tera e whai pakiaka a Hehe, me tetahi e whakatika ake ana hei rangatira mo nga Tauiwi; ko ia hei tumanakohanga ma nga Tauiwi.
13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
Na, ma te Atua, nana nei te tumanako, e whakaki koutou ki te hari katoa, ki te rangimarie, i runga i te whakapono, kia hua ai to koutou tumanako, i runga i te kaha o te Wairua Tapu.
14 I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.
Na e u ana toku ake whakaaro ki a koutou, e oku teina, e ki ana koutou i te pai, whawhao rawa ki te matauranga katoa, a e taea ano e koutou te tohutohu tetahi i tetahi.
15 But I write the more boldly to you in part, as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,
Otiia i nui ake ai toku maia ki te tuhituhi penei ki a koutou, e oku teina, he whakamahara ano i a koutou, he mea na te aroha noa kua homai nei ki ahau e te Atua.
16 that I should be a servant of Messiah Yeshua to the non-Jews, serving as a cohen the Good News of God, that the offering up of the non-Jews might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
I meinga ai ahau hei minita ma Ihu Karaiti ki nga tauiwi, hei minita i te rongopai o te Atua, kia manakohia ai te whakahere o nga tauiwi, he mea whakatapu na te Wairua Tapu.
17 I have therefore my boasting in Messiah Yeshua in things pertaining to God.
Na, kua whai whakamanamanatanga nei ahau i roto i a Karaiti Ihu i nga mea a te Atua.
18 For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Messiah worked through me, for the obedience of the non-Jews, by word and deed,
E kore hoki ahau e maia ki te korero ki etahi mea, ko nga mea anake kua mahia e te Karaiti na roto i ahau, hei mea kia ngohengohe mai nga Tauiwi, ara na taku kupu, na taku mahi,
19 in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Ruach of God; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Messiah.
I runga i te kaha o nga tohu, o nga mea whakamiharo, i runga i te kaha o te Wairua Tapu; no ka whakapaua e ahau te kauwhau i te rongopai o te Karaiti atu i Hiruharama, a taka noa ki Iririkuma rawa;
20 And in this way I desire to preach the Good News where Messiah was not known, that I might not build on another's foundation.
Ae ra, ko ia tenei taku tohe ki te kauwhau i te rongopai, ehara i te mea ki nga wahi kua whakahuatia nei a te Karaiti ki reira, kei hanga whare ahau ki runga ki a tetahi atu turanga:
21 But, as it is written, "Those who were not told about him, they will see, and those who have not heard, they will understand."
Engari kia rite ki te mea i tuhituhia, E kite te hunga kihai nei i korerotia ia ki a ratou, a e matau te hunga kihai i rongo.
22 Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you,
Na konei ano i maha ai oku whakawarenga, te tae atu ai ahau ki a koutou.
23 but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,
Otiia inaianei, kua kore nei he wahi moku i enei whenua, a, i te mea he maha nga tau i wawata ai ahau kia tae atu ki a koutou,
24 whenever I journey to Spain I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
Ina tupono taku haere ki Hipania; e tumanako ana hoki ahau kia kite i a koutou i taua haerenga oku, a kia kawea peratia atu ahau e koutou, ina ano ia kia matua rite tetahi wahi o toku ngakau i te kitenga i a koutou;
25 But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the kadoshim.
Inaianei ia, e mea ana ahau, e haere ana tenei ahau ki Hiruharama, ki te mahi mea ma te hunga tapu.
26 For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the kadoshim who are at Jerusalem.
Kua pai hoki a Makeronia raua ko Akaia kia meinga tetahi kohikohi ma nga mea rawakore o te hunga tapu i Hiruharama.
27 Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the non-Jewish people have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.
Ae ra, i pai ano ratou ki te pera, a e tika ana ano kia hoatu ki a ratou. I te mea kua uru nei nga Tauiwi ki a ratou mea o te wairua, waihoki he tika ano kia mahia e enei etahi mea o te kikokiko ma ratou.
28 When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.
Na, kia oti tenei i ahau, a hiri rawa tenei hua hei mea ma ratou, ka tika atu ahau ma koutou na ki Hipania.
29 I know that, when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of the Messiah.
A e matau ana ahau, ka haere atu ahau ki a koutou, tera ahau e haere atu i runga i te hua noa iho o te manaakitanga o e rongopai o te Karaiti.
30 Now I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, and by the love of the Ruach, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,
Na he tohe tenei naku ki a koutou, e oku teina, he whakaaro ki to tatou Ariki, ki a Ihu Karaiti, na te aroha hoki o te Wairua, kia tohe tahi koutou me ahau i a koutou inoi ki te Atua moku;
31 that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the kadoshim;
Kia whakaorangia ahau i te hunga whakateka i Huria; kia manakohia ano e te hunga tapu taku minitatanga mo Hiruharama;
32 that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest.
Kia haere hari atu ai ahau ki a koutou, ki te pai te Atua, kia whakata tahi ai me koutou.
33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
Na, kia noho te Atua o te rangimarie ki a koutou katoa. Amine.
