Ruka 10
1 Na i muri i enei mea ka whakaritea e te Ariki etahi atu e whitu tekau, a tonoa ana ratou takirua, takirua, i mua i a ia ki nga pa katoa, ki nga wahi meake nei ia haere ki reira.
After this, the Lord appointed seventy others and sent them on ahead, two by two, to every town and place where he himself was about to go.
2 I mea ano ia ki ratou, He nui te kotinga, ko nga kaimahi ia he ruarua: na inoi atu ki te Ariki nana te kotinga, kia tonoa e ia he kaimahi ki tana kotinga.
He said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore ask the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest.
3 Haere: nana, ka tonoa nei koutou e ahau, ano he reme ki waenganui o nga wuruhi.
Now go on your way. Behold, I am sending you out like lambs in the midst of wolves.
4 Kaua e mauria he takotoranga moni, kaua he putea, kaua he hu: kaua ano e oha atu ki tetahi ai te huarahi.
Carry no moneybag, no knapsack, and no sandals; and do not greet anyone on the road.
5 Ki te tomo koutou ki tetahi whare, matua mea atu, Kia tau te rangimarie ki tenei whare.
Whenever you enter a house, first say, ‘May peace be upon this house!’
6 A ki te mea kei reira te tama a te rangimarie, ka tau ta koutou rangimarie ki a ia: ki te kahore, e hoki ano ki a koutou.
If there is a man of peace there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.
7 Na hei taua whare koutou noho ai, kai ai, inu ai i ta ratou e homai ai: ka tika hoki te utu mo te kaimahi. Kaua e haereere i tenei whare ki tera whare.
Remain in the same house, eating and drinking whatever they provide, for the worker is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
8 Ka tomo koutou ki tetahi pa, a ka manako ratou ki a koutou, kainga nga mea e whakatakotoria ana ma koutou:
Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you.
9 Me whakaora te hunga mate o reira, ka mea ki a ratou, Kua tata ki a koutou te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
Heal the sick in that city and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
10 Tena ki te tomo koutou ki tetahi pa, a e kore ratou e manako ki a koutou, me haere atu ki nga huarahi o reira, me ki atu,
But whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,
11 Na, ko te puehu o to koutou pa e piri nei ki a matou, tenei ka tahia atu nei e matou ki a koutou: otira kia mohio koutou ki tenei, kua tata ki a koutou te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
‘Even the dust that clings to us from your town we wipe off against you. Yet know this: The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
12 Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Engari to Horoma i taua ra e mama i to taua pa.
I tell you, on that day it will be more tolerable for Sodom than for that town.
13 Aue, te mate mou, e Korahina! aue, te mate mou, e Petahaira! me i meatia hoki ki Taira, ki Hairona nga merekara kua meatia nei ki a korua, kua ripeneta ke raua, he taratara hoki te kakahu, me te noho i roto i te pungarehu.
“Woe to yoʋ, Chorazin! Woe to yoʋ, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Otira erangi to Taira, to Hairona i te whakawa e mama i to korua.
But it will be more tolerable at the judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.
15 A ko koe, e Kaperenauma, tera koe e ikeike, a tae noa ki te rangi? Ka whakataka koe ki te reinga. (Hadēs g86)
And yoʋ, Capernaum, who have been exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 Ki te whakarongo tetahi ki a koutou, e whakarongo ana ia ki ahau; ki te whakakahore tetahi ki a koutou, e whakakahore ana ia ki ahau; ki te whakakahore ana ia ki ahau; ki te whakakahore tetahi ki ahau, e whakakahore ana ki toku kaitono mai.
“He who listens to you listens to me; he who rejects you rejects me, and he who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
17 Na hoki hari ana te whitu tekau, ka mea, E te Ariki, rongo tonu nga rewera nei ki a matou, he mea na tou ingoa.
When the seventy returned, they were joyful and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in yoʋr name.”
18 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, I kite ahau i a Hatana, me te mea he uira te takanga i te rangi.
He said to them, “I watched Satan fall from heaven like lightning.
19 Na ka hoatu nei e ahau ki a koutou he mana e takahi ai koutou i runga i nga nakahi, i nga kopiona, i te kaha katoa ano o te hoa whawhai: a e kore rawa koutou e mate i tetahi mea.
Behold, I am giving you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and to overcome all the power of the enemy, and nothing at all will harm you.
20 Otira kaua e hari ki tenei, ki nga wairua ka riro nei ki raro i a koutou; ko ta koutou ia e tino hari ai, ko o koutou ingoa kua oti te tuhituhi ki te rangi.
Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
21 I taua wa ano ka hari ia i te Wairua Tapu, ka mea, ka whakawhetai ahau ki a koe, e Pa, e te Ariki o te rangi, o te whenua, kua huna nei hoki e koe enei mea i te hunga matau, i te hunga mahara, a whakakitea ana ki nga kohungahunga: ae ra, e pa, i pai hoki te penei ki tau titiro.
At that same hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, “I praise yoʋ, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because yoʋ have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent, and revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in yoʋr sight.”
22 Kua oti nga mea katoa te tuku ki ahau e toku matua: e kore ano tetahi e matau ki te Tama ko wai ia, ko te Matua anake; ko wai ranei te Matua, ko te Tama anake, me te tangata ano hoki e pai ai te Tama kia whakakitea ia.
Then he turned to the disciples and said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”
23 Na ka tahuri ia ki nga akonga, ka mea puku atu, Ka hari nga kanohi e kite ana i nga mea e kite nei koutou:
Then he turned to the disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see!
24 Ko taku kupu hoki tenei ki a koutou, he tokomaha nga poropiti me nga kingi i hiahia kia kite i nga mea e kite nei koutou, a kahore i kite; kia rongo ano i nga mea e rongo nei koutou, a kahore i rongo.
For I tell you that many prophets and kings wished to see the things you see but did not see them, and to hear the things you hear but did not hear them.”
25 Na ka whakatika tetahi kaiwhakaako o te ture, ka whakamatautau i a ia, ka mea, E te kaiwhakaako, me aha ahau ka whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu? (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a lawyer stood up to test Jesus, saying, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
26 Ka mea ia ki a ia, he aha te mea i tuhituhia ki te ture? ka pehea tau korero?
Jesus said to him, “What is written in the law? How do yoʋ read it?”
27 na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea, Kia whakapaua tou ngakau, tou wairua, tou kaha, tou hinengaro, ki te aroha ki te Ariki, ki tou Atua; me aroha hoki ki tou hoa tata ano ko koe.
He answered, “Yoʋ shall love the Lord yoʋr God with all yoʋr heart, with all yoʋr soul, with all yoʋr strength, and with all yoʋr mind; and yoʋ shall love yoʋr neighbor as yoʋrself.”
28 Ka mea ia ki a ia, Ka tika tau korero: meinga tenei, a ka ora koe.
Jesus said to him, “Yoʋ have answered correctly; do this and yoʋ will live.”
29 Otira ka mea ia ki te whakatika i a ia, ka ki atu ki a Ihu, Ko wai ra toku hoa tata?
But wishing to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea, E haere iho ana tetahi tangata i Hiruharama ki heriko, a ka tutaki ki nga kaipahua, na ka huia ona e ratou, ka tukitukia ia, a haere ana, whakarerea iho ia, me te mea kua mate.
Jesus replied, “A man was going down to Jericho from Jerusalem and fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him as he was, half dead.
31 Na, ko tetahi tohunga e haere noa ana i taua ara: a, i tona kitenga i a ia, ninihi ke ana na tahaki.
Now a priest happened to be going down that road, but when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side.
32 I pena hoki tetahi Riwaiti, tae kau ki taua wahi, ka haere, ka titiro, ninihi ke ana na tahaki.
In the same way, a Levite, when he came to that place and saw him, passed by on the other side.
33 Otira ko tetahi hamari e haere ana ki nga whenua, i te taenga ki a ia, ka kite i a ia, ka aroha,
But a Samaritan, who was on a journey, came to where the man was, and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion.
34 Na ka haere, ka takai i ona patunga, ringihia iho ki te hinu, ki te waina, ka whakanoho i a ia ki tona ake kararehe, a kawea ana ia ki te whare tira, atawhaitia ana ia.
He went over to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 I te aonga ake, i tona haerenga, ka tangohia e ia e rua nga pene, hoatu ana ki te tangata i te whare, ka mea ki a ia, Mau ia e tiaki; a ki te maha atu au mea e pau, maku koe e utu ina hoki mai ahau.
On the next day, when he was departing, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him, and whatever more yoʋ spend I will repay to yoʋ when I return.’
36 Na, ki tou whakaaro, ko wai o tenei tokotoru te hoa ona i tutaki nei ki nga kaipahua?
Now which of these three do yoʋ think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
37 Ka mea ia, Ko tera i atawhaitia ai ia. Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Haere, kia pera ano tau mahi.
The lawyer said, “The one who showed him mercy.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
38 A i to ratou haerenga atu, ka tomo ia ki tetahi kainga: na, ko tetahi wahine ko Mata te ingoa, i whakamanuhiri i a ia ki tona whare.
As Jesus and his disciples went along, he entered a village, and a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home.
39 He teina ano tona, ko Meri te ingoa, na ka noho tenei ki nga waewae o Ihu, whakarongo ai ki tana kupu.
She had a sister named Mary, who sat at Jesus' feet and listened to what he was saying.
40 Na raruraru noa iho a Mata i te nui o te mahi tuari, a haere ana, ka mea, E te Ariki, he mea noa oti ki a koe kia waiho e toku teina maku anake te tuari? na, korero atu kia haere mai ia hei hoa moku.
But Martha was distracted by the many preparations that had to be made. So she came up to Jesus and said, “Lord, do yoʋ not care that my sister has left me to make all the preparations by myself? Tell her then to assist me.”
41 Ka whakahoki te Ariki, ka mea ki a ia, E Mata, e Mata, e manukanuka ana koe, e raruraru ana ki nga mea maha:
But Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, yoʋ are anxious and troubled about many things,
42 Kotahi ia te mea e matea ana: a kua whiriwhiria e Meri tena wahi pai, e kore nei e tangohia i a ia.
but only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, and it will not be taken away from her.”
