< Hoani 21 >

1 Muri iho i enei mea ka whakakite a Ihu i a ia ki nga akonga i te moana o Taipiria; ko tana whakakitenga tenei:
After this Jesus showed himself again to his disciples by the Sea of Tiberias. He showed himself as follows.
2 E noho tahi ana a Haimona Pita, a Tamati, ko Ririmu nei tona ingoa, a Natanahira o Kana o Kariri, nga tama a Heperi, me tetahi tokorua atu ano o ana akonga.
There were together Simon Peter and Thomas, called "The Twin," and Nathanael, from Cana of Galilee, and the two sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.
3 Ka mea a Haimona Pita ki a ratou, Ka haere ahau ki te hao. Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ko tatou tahi e haere. Haere ana ratou, eke ana ki runga ki te kaipuke; a i taua po kihai i mau tetahi mea.
Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They answered him, "And we are going with you." So they went out and got into the boat, and throughout the night they caught nothing.
4 Na ka puao te ata, ko Ihu e tu ana i tatahi: otiia kihai nga akonga i mohio ko Ihu ia.
But when day was dawning Jesus stood on the beach. The disciples, however, did not recognize that it was Jesus.
5 Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ratou, E tama ma, kahore a koutou kai? Ka whakahokia e ratou ki a ia, Kahore.
So Jesus said to them, "Lads, you haven’t any fish, have you?" They answered him, "No."
6 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Maka te kupenga ki te taha matau o te kaipuke a ka mau etahi. Na, i ta ratou makanga atu, kihai i taea te kukume i te tini o nga ika.
And he said to them, "Cast your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find." So they cast it, and now they could not haul it in for the multitude of fishes.
7 Katahi ka mea te akonga i arohaina e Ihu ki a Pita, Ko te Ariki. A, no te rongonga o Haimona Pita, ko te Ariki, ka whitikiria tona kakahu, e tu kau ana hoki ia, a rere ana ki te moana.
Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" On hearing that it was the Lord, Simon Peter girt his fisher’s coat about him (for he was naked), and threw himself into the water.
8 Ko era akonga ia i hoe i runga i te poti, kihai hoki i mamao atu i te whenua, me te mea e rua rau whatianga, e kukume ana i te kupenga, i nga ika.
The rest of the disciples came in the boat, for they were not far from shore - only about a hundred yards - dragging in the net full of fish.
9 Heoi, no to ratou unga ki uta, ka kite i te kapura waro me nga ika e takoto ana i runga, me tetahi taro.
When they got to the shore they beheld a charcoal fire ready laid, with fish on it, and some bread.
10 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Homai etahi o nga ika kua mau na i a koutou.
"Bring some of the fish you have just caught," Jesus told them.
11 Na haere ana a Haimona Pita, a kumea ana e ia te kupenga ki uta, ki tonu i nga ika nunui, kotahi rau e rima tekau ma toru: a, ahakoa tini, kihai i pakaru te kupenga.
So Simon Peter went and dragged the net to shore, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three of them; but for all this number the net was not torn.
12 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, haere mai kai te kai. heoi kihai tetahi o nga akonga i maia ki te ui ki a ia, Ko wai koe? i mohio hoki ko te Ariki.
"Come and have breakfast," said Jesus to them. Not one of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" Knowing that it was the Lord.
13 Na ka haere a Ihu, ka mau ki te taro, a hoatu ana e ia ki a ratou, me nga ika.
Jesus went and took bread and gave it to them, and the fish also.
14 Ko te toru tenei o nga putanga o Ihu ki ana akonga, i muri i tona aranga ake i te hunga mate.
This was the third time that Jesus showed himself to the disciples after he had risen from among the dead.
15 A ka mutu ta ratou kai, ka mea a Ihu ki a Haimona Pita, E Haimona, tama a Hona, rahi atu ranei tou aroha ki ahau i to enei? Ka mea tera ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki; e mohio ana koe e aroha ana ahau ki a koe. Ka mea ia ki a ia, Whangainga aku reme.
When they were through breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?" "Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me." he answered. Jesus said to him, "Feed my lambs."
16 Ka mea ano ia ki a ia, ko te rua o nga meatanga, E Haimona, tama a Hona, e aroha ana koe ki ahau? Ka mea tera ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki; e mohio ana koe e aroha ana ahau ki a koe. Ka mea ia ki a ia, Heparatia aku hipi.
He said to him a second time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" He answered, "Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me." "Be a shepherd to my sheep," said Jesus.
17 Ka mea ia ki a ia, ko te toru o nga meatanga, E Haimona, tama a Hona, e aroha ana koe ki ahau? Ka pouri a Pita no te mea ka toru rawa ana meatanga ki a ia, E aroha ana koe ki ahau? Ka mea ano ki a ia, E te Ariki, e mohio ana koe ki nga mea katoa; e mohio ana koe e aroha ana ahau ki a koe. Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Whangainga aku hipi.
The third time Jesus asked him, "Am I really dear to you?" Peter was grieved because the third time he asked, "Am I really dear to you?" and he answered, "Master, you know all things, you know that you are dear to me."
18 He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koe, I tou tamarikitanga, i whitiki koe i a koe, i haere ki tau wahi i pai ai: ka koroheketia koe, ka whakamarokia e koe ou ringa, he tangata ke hoki mana koe e whitiki, e kawe ki te wahi e kore ai koe e pai.
"Feed my sheep," said Jesus. "In solemn truth I tell you that when you were young, you used to put on your own girdle, and walk wherever you wished; but when you grow old you will stretch out your hands for some one to gird you, and carry you where you do not wish to go."
19 I korerotia tenei e ia, hei tohu mo te mate e whakakororia ai ia i te Atua. A ka puaki tenei kupu ana, ka mea ia ki a ia, Haere mai i muri i ahau.
This he said to show by what kind of death Peter was to glorify God. After speaking thus, he said to him, "Follow me."
20 No te tahuritanga o Pita, ka kite i te akonga i aroha ai a Ihu e aru ana; ko tera hoki i whakawhirinaki ra ki tonu uma i te hapa, i mea ra, E te Ariki, ko wai te kaituku mou?
Peter turned around and saw that the disciple whom Jesus loved was following - he who at the supper leaned back upon his breast and said, "Lord, who is to betray you?"
21 A, i te kitenga o Pita i a ia, ka mea ki a Ihu, E te Ariki, e aha ra tenei?
On catching sight of him, Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, what about him?"
22 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ki te pai ahau kia noho tonu ia kia tae mai ra ano ahau, hei aha mau? haere mai koe i muri i ahau.
"If I choose that he remain until I come," said Jesus, "what is that to you? Do you follow me."
23 Heoi ka puta atu tenei kupu ki nga hoa, e kore taua akonga e mate: otiia kihai a Ihu i mea ki a ia, E kore ia e mate; engari, Ki te pai ahau kia noho tonu ia kia tae mai ra ano ahau, hei aha mau?
Accordingly the report spread among the brothers that this disciple should not die; but Jesus did not say that he was not to die, but said, "If I choose that he remain until I come, what is that to you?"
24 Ko taua akonga tenei e whakaatu nei i enei mea, ko te kaituhituhi hoki ia i enei mea: e mohio ana ano matou e tika ana tana whakaatu.
It is this disciple who bears testimony to these facts and who recorded them; and we know that his testimony is true.
25 Na tera atu ano tona tini o nga mea i mea ai a Ihu me i tuhia katoatia, e mea ana ahau, e kore pea te ao nei e whai takotoranga mo nga pukapuka e tuhia. Amine.
But there are also many other things which Jesus did; if every one of them were to be recorded in detail I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would have to be written.
