Hoani 1
1 I te timatanga te Kupu, i te Atua te Kupu, ko te Atua ano te Kupu.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 I te Atua ano tenei Kupu i te timatanga.
He was in the beginning with God.
3 Nana nga mea katoa i hanga; kahore hoki tetahi mea i kore te hanga e ia o nga mea i hanga.
All things were made through him, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made.
4 I a ia te ora; ko te ora te marama mo nga tangata.
In him was life, and the life was the light of humanity.
5 I roto i te pouri te marama e whiti ana; heoi kihai i mau i te pouri.
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
6 I tonoa mai he tangata e te Atua, ko Hoani tona ingoa.
There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
7 I haere mai ia hei kaiwhakaatu, hei whakaatu mo te marama, kia meinga ai e ia nga tangata katoa kia whakapono.
He came as a witness to testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
8 Ehara ia i te marama, engari i haere mai hei kaiwhakaatu mo te marama.
He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9 Ko te marama pono tera, ara ko te marama e marama ai nga tangata katoa e haere mai ana ki te ao.
The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10 I te ao ia, i hanga ano e ia te ao, a kihai te ao i mohio ki a ia.
He was in the world, and the world was made through him, but the world did not recognize him.
11 I haere mai ia ki ona, a kihai ona i manako ki a ia.
He came to his own, and those who were his own did not receive him.
12 Tena ko te hunga i manako ki a ia i tukua e ia ki a ratou nga tikanga e meinga ai ratou hei tamariki ma te Atua, ara ki te hunga e whakapono ana ki tona ingoa:
But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,
13 Ki te hunga ehara nei i te toto, ehara i ta te kikokiko i pai ai, ehara i ta te tangata i pai ai, engari na te Atua i whanau ai.
who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 I whakakikokikoa te Kupu, a noho ana i a matou, i kite ano matou i tona kororia he kororia e rite ana ki to te Tama kotahi a te Matua, ki tonu i te aroha noa, i te pono.
And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only of the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 I korerotia ia e Hoani; i karanga tera, i mea, Ko ia tenei i korerotia ra e ahau, Ko ia e haere mai ana i muri i ahau e meinga ana ki mua i ahau: no mua hoki ia i ahau.
John testified about him and shouted out, saying, "This was the one of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.'"
16 Kua riro hoki i a tatou katoa tetahi wahi o tona raneatanga, te aroha noa hono iho ki te aroha noa.
For of his fullness we all received, and grace upon grace.
17 Na Mohi hoki i homai te ture; ko te aroha noa me te pono i ahu mai i a Ihu Karaiti.
For the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Yeshua the Messiah.
18 Kahore ano he tangata i kite noa i te Atua; ko te Tama kotahi, kei te uma nei o te Matua, nana ia i whakapuaki.
No one has seen God at any time. The only Son, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
19 Na ko te korero tenei a Hoani, i te tononga mai a nga Hurai i Hiruharama i nga tohunga nui ratou ko nga Riwaiti hei ui ki a ia, Ko wai koe?
And this is John's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent cohanim and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
20 Na ka whakina e ia, kihai i whakakahore, i whaki hoki, Ehara ahau i a te Karaiti.
And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Messiah."
21 A ka ui ratou ki a ia, Tena, pehea? Ko Iraia koe? Ka mea ia, Kahore. Ko te poropiti oti koe? Ka whakahokia e ia, Kahore.
And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
22 Na ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ko wai koia koe? Hei kupu whakahoki ma matou ki te hunga i tonoa mai ai matou. E pehea ano koe ki a koe?
They said therefore to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"
23 Ka mea ia, he reo ahau no tetahi e karanga ana i te koraha, Whakatikaia te huarahi o te Ariki; he pera me ta Ihaia poropiti i mea ai.
He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Isaiah the prophet said."
24 No nga Parihi hoki te hunga i tonoa mai ra.
(Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)
25 Na ka ui ratou ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, He aha oti koe i iriiri ai, ki te mea ehara koe i a te Karaiti, ehara i a Iraia, ehara i te poropiti?
And they asked him, "Why then do you immerse, if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"
26 Na ka whakahoki a Hoani ki a ratou, ka mea, He iriiri taku ki te wai: otiia tena te tu na i waenganui i a koutou tetahi kahore e mohiotia e koutou:
John answered them, saying, "I immerse in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.
27 Ko ia tenei e haere mai ana i muri i ahau kahore hoki ahau e tau hei wewete i te here o tona hu.
He is the one who comes after me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to loosen."
28 I meatia enei mea ki Petapara, kia tawahi atu o Horano, ki te wahi e iriiri ana a Hoani.
These things were done in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was immersing.
29 I te aonga ake ka kite ia i a Ihu e haere ana mai ki a ia, ka mea, na, te Reme a te Atua, hei waha atu i te hara o te ao!
The next day, he saw Yeshua coming to him, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
30 Ko ia tenei i korero ai ahau, Kei te haere mai i muri i ahau tetahi tangata kua meinga ki mua i ahua; no mua hoki ia i ahau.
This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.'
31 A kahore ahau i matau ki a ia; heoi hei whakakite i a ia ki a Iharaira, i haere mai ai ahau me taku iriiri ki te wai.
I did not know him, but for this reason I came immersing in water: that he would be revealed to Israel."
32 Na ka whakaatu a Hoani, ka mea, I kite ahau i te Wairua e heke iho ana i te rangi, ano he kukupa, a noho ana i runga i a ia.
And John testified, saying, "I saw the Ruach descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
33 A kahore ahau i matau ki a ia: engari i ki mai ki ahau te kaitono mai i ahau ki te iriiri ki te wai, Ko te tangata e kite ai koe i te Wairua e heke iho ana, e noho ana ki runga ki a ia, ko ia tena te kaiiriiri ki te Wairua Tapu.
And I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to immerse in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Ruach descending, and remaining on him, this is he who immerses in the Ruach ha-Kodesh.'
34 A kua kite ahau, kua whakaatu nei hoki, ko te Tama tenei a te Atua.
And I have seen and have testified that this is the Chosen One of God."
35 I te aonga ake i te tu ano a Hoani me ana akonga tokorua;
Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his talmidim,
36 Na ka titiro ia ki a Ihu e haere ana, ka mea, na, te Reme a te Atua!
and he looked at Yeshua as he walked, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God."
37 A ka rongo nga akonga tokorua ki a ia e korero ana, a aru ana raua i a Ihu.
And the two talmidim heard him say this, and they followed Yeshua.
38 A ka tahuri a Ihu, ka kite i a raua e aru ana, ka mea ia ki a raua, E rapu ana korua i te aha? Na ko ta raua meatanga ki a ia, E Rapi, ko te tikanga tenei ina whakamaoritia, E te Kaiwhaako, kei hea tou kainga?
And Yeshua turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What are you looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which translated means Teacher), "where are you staying?"
39 Ka mea ia ki a raua, haere mai kia kite. Haere ana raua, a ka kite i tona wahi i noho ai, a noho ana i a ia i taua ra: ko te tekau hoki ia o nga haora.
He said to them, "Come, and you will see." They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about four in the afternoon.
40 Ko Anaru, teina o Haimona Pita tetahi o taua tokorua i rongo nei ki a Hoani e korero ana, a aru ana i a ia.
One of the two who heard John, and followed him, was Andrew, Shim'on Peter's brother.
41 Ko ia kua kite wawe i tona tuakana ake, i a Haimona, ka mea ki a ia, Kua kitea e maua te Mihaia, ko te tikanga tenei ina whakamaoritia, ko te Karaiti.
He first found his own brother, Shim'on, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah." (which is translated, Anointed One).
42 Na ka arahina mai ia e ia ki a Ihu. A ka titiro a Ihu ki a ia, ka mea, Ko Haimona koe, ko te tama a Hona: me hua koe ko Kipa: tona whakamaoritanga ko Pita, ara ko Kohatu.
He brought him to Yeshua. Yeshua looked at him, and said, "You are Shim'on the son of John. You shall be called Kefa" (which is translated, Peter).
43 I te aonga ake ka mea a Ihu kia haere ki Kariri, a ka kite i a Piripi: a ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, E aru i ahau.
On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galil, and he found Philip. And Yeshua said to him, "Follow me."
44 Na ko Piripi no Petahaira, no te pa o Anaru raua ko Pita.
Now Philip was from Beit Tzaidah, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Ka kite a Piripi i a Natanahira, ka mea ki a ia, Kua kitea e matou a ia, mona nei te tuhituhi a Mohi i roto i te ture, ta nga poropiti hoki, a Ihu o Nahareta te tama a Hohepa.
Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and the Prophets wrote: Yeshua of Natzeret, the son of Joseph."
46 Na ka mea a Natanahira ki a ia, E puta koia tetahi mea pai i Nahareta? ka mea a Piripi ki a ia, haere mai kia kite.
And Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Natzeret?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."
47 Ka kite a Ihu i a Natanahira e haere ana mai ki a ia, ka puaki tana kupu mona, Na he tino tangata no Iharaira, kahore ona tinihanga.
Yeshua saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, "Look, a true Israelite in whom there is no deceit."
48 Ka mea a Natanahira ki a ia, No hea koe i matau ai ki ahau? Ka whakahoki a Ihu ki a ia, ka mea, I te mea kiano koe i karangatia e Piripi, i a koe ano i raro i te piki, i kite ahau i a koe.
Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Yeshua answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."
49 Na ka whakahoki a Natanahira, ka mea ki a ia, E Rapi, ko te Tama koe a te Atua, ko te Kingi koe o Iharaira.
Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are King of Israel."
50 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, No taku meatanga ki a koe, I kite ahau i a koe i raro i te piki, i whakapono ai koe? rahi atu i enei nga mea e kitea e koe.
Yeshua answered him, "Because I told you, 'I saw you underneath the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
51 I mea ano ia ki a ia, He pono, he pono tenei kupu aku ki a koutou, Tera koutou e kite i te rangi e tuwhera ana, i nga anahera a te Atua e piki ake ana, e heke iho ana ki te Tama a te tangata.
And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
