Matthew 12
1 At that time did Jesus go on the sabbaths through the corn, and his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck ears, and to eat,
I taua wa i haere a Ihu i te hapati ra waenga witi; a e hiakai ana ana akonga, na ka anga ratou ka kato i nga witi, ka kai.
2 and the Pharisees having seen, said to him, 'Lo, thy disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on a sabbath.'
A, no te kitenga o nga Parihi, ka mea ki a ia, Na, au akonga e mea na i te mea e kore e tika kia meinga i te hapati.
3 And he said to them, 'Did ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, himself and those with him —
Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kahore koutou i kite i ta Rawiri i mea ai, i a ia e hiakai ana, ratou ko ona hoa:
4 how he went into the house of God, and the loaves of the presentation did eat, which it is not lawful to him to eat, nor to those with him, except to the priests alone?
I tona tomokanga ki te whare o te Atua, i tana kainga i nga taro aroaro, i nga mea kihai nei i tika kia kainga e ia, e ona hoa ranei, engari ma nga tohunga anake?
5 'Or did ye not read in the Law, that on the sabbaths the priests in the temple do profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
Kahore ano koutou i kite i roto i te ture, e whakanoatia ana te hapati e nga tohunga i roto i te temepara i nga hapati, a kahore he he?
6 and I say to you, that a greater than the temple is here;
Ko taku kupu ia tenei ki a koutou, Kei konei tetahi, he rahi ke i te temepara.
7 and if ye had known what is: Kindness I will, and not sacrifice — ye had not condemned the blameless,
Otiia me i matau koutou ki tenei, Ko taku e pai ai ko te tohu tangata, haunga te patunga tapu, kahore koutou i whakahe i te hunga harakore.
8 for the son of man is lord even of the sabbath.'
Ko te Tama nei hoki a te tangata te Ariki o te hapati.
9 And having departed thence, he went to their synagogue,
Na ka haere atu ia i reira, ka tomo ki to ratou whare karakia:
10 and lo, there was a man having the hand withered, and they questioned him, saying, 'Is it lawful to heal on the sabbaths?' that they might accuse him.
Na he tangata tera kua memenge te ringa. A ka ui ratou ki a ia, He tika ranei te whakaora i te hapati? he mea hoki kia whakapangia ai e ratou he he ki a ia.
11 And he said to them, 'What man shall be of you, who shall have one sheep, and if this may fall on the sabbaths into a ditch, will not lay hold on it and raise [it]?
Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ko tehea tangata o koutou, ki te mea kotahi ana hipi, a ka taka ki roto ki te poka i te hapati, e kore ranei ia e mau ki taua hipi, e hapai ake?
12 How much better, therefore, is a man than a sheep? — so that it is lawful on the sabbaths to do good.'
Na tera noa atu to te tangata pai i to te hipi. Ina, he tika ano te mahi pai i nga hapati.
13 Then saith he to the man, 'Stretch forth thy hand,' and he stretched [it] forth, and it was restored whole as the other.
Me i reira ka mea ia ki taua tangata, Totoro mai tou ringa. A, no te toronga, kua ora ano, kua pera me tetahi.
14 And the Pharisees having gone forth, held a consultation against him, how they might destroy him,
Na ka haere nga Parihi ki waho, ka runanga mona me pehea e ngaro ai ia i a ratou.
15 and Jesus having known, withdrew thence, and there followed him great multitudes, and he healed them all,
Otira i matau a Ihu, a haere atu ana i reira: a he rahi te hui i aru i a ia, a whakaorangia ana ratou katoa e ia;
16 and did charge them that they might not make him manifest,
A i whakatupato ano ia i a ratou kei whakakitea ia.
17 that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Na ka rite ta Ihaia poropiti i korero ai, i mea ai,
18 'Lo, My servant, whom I did choose, My beloved, in whom My soul did delight, I will put My Spirit upon him, and judgment to the nations he shall declare,
Na, taku pononga, taku i whiriwhiri ai: taku i aroha ai, ta toku Wairua i ahuareka ai: ka waiho e ahau toku Wairua ki runga ki a ia, a mana e whakapuaki te whakawa ki nga tauiwi.
19 he shall not strive nor cry, nor shall any hear in the broad places his voice,
E kore ia e totohe, e kore ia e hamama; e kore ano e rangona tona reo i nga ara;
20 a bruised reed he shall not break, and smoking flax he shall not quench, till he may put forth judgment to victory,
E kore e whatiia porokeretia e ia te kakaho i mangungu, e kore e tineia te muka e whakapaoa ana; kia puta ra ano i a ia te whakawa ki te wikitoria.
21 and in his name shall nations hope.'
Ka tumanako hoki nga tauiwi ki tona ingoa.
22 Then was brought to him a demoniac, blind and dumb, and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
Me i reira ka kawea mai ki a ia he tangata e nohoia ana e te rewera, he matapo, he wahangu; a whakaorangia ana e ia, no ka korero, ka kite taua matapo, taua wahangu.
23 And all the multitudes were amazed, and said, 'Is this the Son of David?'
A ka ohomauri te mano katoa, ka mea, Ehara ianei tenei i te Tama a Rawiri?
24 but the Pharisees having heard, said, 'This one doth not cast out demons, except by Beelzeboul, ruler of the demons.'
A, no te rongonga o nga Parihi, ka mea, Ehara i a ia nana i pei nga rewera nei, engari na Perehepura, na te rangatira o nga rewera.
25 And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said to them, 'Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated, and no city or house having been divided against itself, doth stand,
A i matau a Ihu ki o ratou whakaaro, ka mea ki a ratou, Ki te tahuri iho tetahi rangatiratanga ki a ia ano, ka kore; ki te tahuri iho hoki ki a ia ano tetahi pa, tetahi whare ranei, e kore e tu:
26 and if the Adversary doth cast out the Adversary, against himself he was divided, how then doth his kingdom stand?
Na, ki te pei a Hatana i a Hatana ano, e tahuri iho ana ki a ia ano; me pehea e tu ai tona rangatiratanga?
27 'And if I, by Beelzeboul, do cast out the demons, your sons — by whom do they cast out? because of this they — they shall be your judges.
A, ki te mea na Perehepura taku peinga rewera, na wai te peinga a a koutou tamariki? na ko ratou hei kaiwhakawa mo koutou.
28 'But if I, by the Spirit of God, do cast out the demons, then come already unto you did the reign of God.
Tena, ki te mea na te Wairua o te Atua taku peinga rewera, ina, kua tae noa mai te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki a koutou.
29 'Or how is one able to go into the house of the strong man, and to plunder his goods, if first he may not bind the strong man? and then his house he will plunder.
Me pehea oti ka tomo ai te tangata ki te whare o te tangata kaha, ka pahua ai i ona taonga, ki te kore ia e matua here i taua tangata kaha? ko reira pahua ai i tona whare.
30 'He who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me, doth scatter.
Ko te tangata ehara i te hoa noku, he hoariri ia ki ahau; ko te tangata kahore e kohikohi tahi maua, e titaritari ana.
31 Because of this I say to you, all sin and evil speaking shall be forgiven to men, but the evil speaking of the Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.
Koia ahau ka mea nei ki a koutou, Ko nga hara katoa me nga kohukohu, a te tangata e murua: tena ko te kohukohu ki te Wairau Tapu e kore e murua.
32 And whoever may speak a word against the Son of Man it shall be forgiven to him, but whoever may speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is coming. (aiōn g165)
Ki te korero whakahe hoki tetahi mo te Tama a te tangata, e murua tana: tena ki te korero whakahe tetahi mo te Wairua Tapu, e kore e murua tana i tenei ao, e kore ano i tera atu. (aiōn g165)
33 'Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad, for from the fruit is the tree known.
Meinga ranei te rakau kia pai, a pai iho ona hua; meinga ranei te rakau kia kino, a kino iho ona hua; ma nga hua hoki ka mohiotia ai te rakau.
34 'Brood of vipers! how are ye able to speak good things — being evil? for out of the abundance of the heart doth the mouth speak.
E te uri nakahi, me pehea ka korero pai ai koutou, te hunga kino? he purenatanga hoki no te ngakau nga kupu a te mangai.
35 The good man out of the good treasure of the heart doth put forth the good things, and the evil man out of the evil treasure doth put forth evil things.
Ko te tangata pai he pai ana e whakaputa ai i roto i nga taonga pai o te ngakau: ko te tangata kino hoki he kino ana e whakaputa ai i roto i nga taonga kino.
36 'And I say to you, that every idle word that men may speak, they shall give for it a reckoning in a day of judgment;
Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Me korero e nga tangata, i te ra whakawa, te tikanga o nga kupu pokanoa katoa e puaki i a ratou.
37 for from thy words thou shalt be declared righteous, and from thy words thou shalt be declared unrighteous.'
Ma au kupu hoki koe ka whakatikaia ai, ma au kupu ano ka tau ai te he ki a koe.
38 Then answered certain of the scribes and Pharisees, saying, 'Teacher, we will to see a sign from thee.'
Me i reira ka ki etahi o nga karaipi, o nga Parihi, ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, e mea ana matou kia kite i tetahi tohu i a koe.
39 And he answering said to them, 'A generation, evil and adulterous, doth seek a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;
Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, E rapu ana te whakatupuranga kino, puremu, i tetahi tohu; a e kore tetahi tohu e hoatu, ko te tohu anake o Hona poropiti:
40 for, as Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights, so shall the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
E toru hoki nga ra o Hona, e toru nga po i roto i te kopu o te tohora; waihoki ka toru nga ra, ka toru nga po o te Tama a te tangata ki te manawa o te whenua.
41 'Men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for they reformed at the proclamation of Jonah, and lo, a greater than Jonah here!
E ara nga tangata o Ninewe me tenei whakatupuranga i te whakawakanga, e whakatau i te he ki a ratou: i ripeneta hoki ratou i te kauwhau a Hona; a tenei tetahi he nui ki i a Hona.
42 'A queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and lo, a greater than Solomon here!
E ara te kuini o te tonga me tenei whakatupuranga i te whakawakanga, e whakatau i te he ki a ratou: i haere mai hoki ia i nga pito o te whenua ki te whakarongo ki nga whakaaro nui o Horomona; a tenei tetahi he nui ke i a Horomona.
43 'And, when the unclean spirit may go forth from the man, it doth walk through dry places seeking rest, and doth not find;
Ka puta mai te wairua poke i roto i te tangata, ka haereere ra nga wahi maroke rapu okiokinga ai, a te kitea.
44 then it saith, I will turn back to my house whence I came forth; and having come, it findeth [it] unoccupied, swept, and adorned:
Ka mea ia, Ka hoki ahau ki toku whare i puta mai ia ahau; a, no te taenga atu, rokohanga atu e takoto kau ana, oti rawa te tahi, te whakapai.
45 then doth it go, and take with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having gone in they dwell there, and the last of that man doth become worse than the first; so shall it be also to this evil generation.'
Na ka haere ia, ka tango i etahi atu wairua tokowhitu hei hoa mona, he kino noa atu i a ia, ka tomo ratou, ka noho ki reira; a kino atu i te timatanga te whakamutunga ki taua tangata. Tera ano e pera tenei whakatupuranga kino.
46 And while he was yet speaking to the multitudes, lo, his mother and brethren had stood without, seeking to speak to him,
I a ia ano e korero ana ki te mano, na, ko tona whaea ratou ko ona teina e tu ana i waho, e whai ana kia korero ki a ia.
47 and one said to him, 'Lo, thy mother and thy brethren do stand without, seeking to speak to thee.'
A ka mea tetahi ki a ia, Na, tou whaea me ou teina te tu mai nei i waho, e whai ana kia korero ki a koe.
48 And he answering said to him who spake to him, 'Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?'
Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki te tangata i korero ki a ia, Ko wai toku whaea? ko wai hoki oku teina?
49 And having stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, he said, 'Lo, my mother and my brethren!
Na ka totoro tona ringa ki ana akonga, ka mea, Na, toku whaea, oku teina!
50 for whoever may do the will of my Father who is in the heavens, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.'
Ki te meatia hoki e tetahi ta toku Matua i te rangi e pai ai, hei teina ia ki ahau, hei tuahine, hei whaea.
