Ruka 11
1 A, i a ia e inoi ana i tetahi wahi, a ka mutu, ka ki atu tetahi o ana akonga ki a ia, E te Ariki, whakaakona matou ki te inoi, me Hoani hoki i whakaako ra i ana akonga.
And it came to pass as he was in a certain place praying, that when he ceased, a certain man of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray as John also taught his disciples.
2 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ka inoi koutou, mea atu, E to matou Matua i te rangi, Kia tapu tou ingoa. Kia tae mai tou rangatiratanga. Kia meatia tau e pai ai ki runga ki te whenua, kia rite ano ki to te rangi.
And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Our Father in the heavens, hallowed be thy name. May thy kingdom come, may thy will happen on the earth as also in heaven.
3 Homai ta matou taro ki a matou, to tenei ra, to tenei ra.
Give us our bread sufficient for each day.
4 Murua o matou hara; e murua ana hoki e matou o nga tangata katoa e hara ana ki a matou. Aua hoki matou e kawea kia whakawaia.
And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive every man who is indebted to us. And bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
5 I mea ano ia ki a ratou, Ko wai o koutou ki te mea he hoa tona, a ka tae atu ki a ia i waenganui po, ka mea ki a ia, E hoa, homai ki ahau etahi taro, kia toru;
And he said to them, Which of you will have a friend, and will go to him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves,
6 Kua tae mai hoki toku hoa ki ahau i te ara, kahore aku mea e whakatakoto ai ahau mana?
since a friend arrived from the road to me, and I do not have what I would set before him,
7 A ka whakahoki tera i roto, ka mea, Hoha ki, kati ra: kua tutakina noatia ake te tatau, kei te moenga matou ko aku tamariki; e kore e ahei kia whakatika atu ahau ki te hoatu ki a koe.
and that man from inside, having answered, would say, Do not cause toils for me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I am not able, after getting up, to give thee?
8 Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Ahakoa kahore ia i whakatika ki te hoatu ki a ia, no te mea he hoa nona, ma tana tohe ano ka ara ake ai ia, ka hoatu ai ki a ia i nga mea i tonoa e ia.
I say to you, though he will not give him, after getting up, because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, having awaken, he will give him as many as he needs.
9 Ko taku kupu ano tenei ki a koutou, Inoi, a ka hoatu ki a koutou; e rapu, a ka kite koutou; patukia, a ka uakina ki a koutou.
And I say to you, ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and ye will find. Knock, and it will be opened.
10 Ka whiwhi hoki nga tangata katoa ina inoi; ka kite ina rapu; ka uakina ki te tangata e patuki ana.
For every man who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.
11 Ko tehea matua o koutou ki te inoia e tana tama tetahi taro, e hoatu ranei ki a ia he kamaka? ki te inoia he ika, e hoatu ranei ki a ia he nakahi hei ika?
And which father of you, if the son will ask a loaf, will give him a stone, or also if a fish, in place of a fish will give him a serpent?
12 Ki te inoia he hua manu, e hoatu ranei ki a ia he kopiona?
Or if he should ask for an egg, will he give him a scorpion?
13 Ki te mea ko koutou, hunga kino nei, e matau ana ki te hoatu mea papai ki a koutou tamariki: tera noa ake te homaitanga o te Wairua Tapu e to koutou Matua i te rangi ki te hunga e inoi ana ki a ia.
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more the Father from heaven will give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?
14 Na e pei rewera ana ia, he mea wahangu ano hoki. A, no te putanga o te rewera ki waho, ka korero te wahangu; a miharo ana te mano.
And he was casting out a demon, and it was mute. And it happened when the demon was gone out, the mute man spoke. And the multitudes marveled,
15 Na ka mea etahi o ratou, Na te rangatira o nga rewera, na Perehepura, tana peinga rewera.
but some of them said, He casts out the demons by Beelzebub, ruler of the demons.
16 Na ka whakamatautau etahi, ka mea ki tetahi tohu i a ia i te rangi.
And others, challenging, sought from him a sign from the sky.
17 Otiia i matau ia ki o ratou whakaaro, a ka mea ki a ratou, Ki te tahuri iho tetahi rangatiratanga ki a ia ano, ka kore; ki te tahuri hoki tetahi whare ki tetahi whare, ka hinga.
But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom that was divided against itself is made desolate, and a house against a house falls.
18 A ki te tahuri iho a hatana ki a ia ano, me pehea e tu ai tona rangatiratanga? e mea na hoki koutou, na Perehepura taku peinga rewera.
And if Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom be made to stand? Because ye say that I cast out the demons by Beelzebub.
19 Na, ki te mea na Perehepura taku peinga rewera, na wai te peinga a a koutou tama? mo konei hei kaiwhakawa ratou mo koutou.
And if I cast out the demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Because of this they will be your judges.
20 Tena ki te mea na te ringa o te Atua taku peinga rewera, ina, kua tae mai te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki a koutou.
But if by a finger of God I cast out the demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
21 Ki te tiakina e te tangata kaha, he patu nei ana, tona whare, ka ata takoto ana taonga:
When the fully armed strong man guards his palace, the things possessed by him are in peace,
22 Ki te puta mai ia te mea e kaha atu ana i a ia, a ka hinga tera, na ka tangohia ana patu i whakamanawa ai ia, ka tuwhatuwhaia ona taonga.
but when a stronger than he comes, after defeating him, he takes away his full armor in which he trusted, and divides his booty.
23 Ko te tangata ehara i te hoa noku, he hoariri ia ki ahau: ko te tangata kahore e kohikohi tahi maua, e titaritari ana.
He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.
24 Ka puta te wairua poke i roto i te tangata, ka haereere ia ra nga wahi waikore rapu okiokinga ai; a, kahore e kitea, ka mea ia, Ka hoki ahau ki toku whare i puta mai ai ahau.
When the unclean spirit departs out of the man, it passes through waterless places seeking rest. And not finding, it says, I will return to my house from where I came out.
25 A, no te taenga atu, rokohanga atu kua oti te tahitahi, te whakapaipai.
And when it comes, it finds it swept and put in order.
26 Na ka haere ia, ka tango i etahi atu wairua tokowhitu, he kino atu i a ia; a ka tomo atu, ka noho i reira: a kino atu i te timatanga te whakamutunga o taua tangata.
Then it goes, and takes along seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having enter in, it dwells there. And the last state of that man becomes worse than the first.
27 A i ia e korero ana i enei mea, ka karanga ake tetahi wahine i roto i te mano, ka mea ki a ia, Koa tonu te kopu i kawea ai koe, me nga u i ngotea e koe.
And it came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman, having lifted up her voice out of the crowd, said to him, Blessed is the belly that bore thee, and the breasts that thou suckled.
28 Ano ra hoki ko ia, Engari ra, tino koa te hunga e whakarongo ana ki te kupu a te Atua, a e mahi ana.
But he said, Blessed rather, are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.
29 A, no ka rupeke te mano, ka anga ia ka korero, He whakatupuranga kino tenei: e rapu ana ki tetahi tohu; a e kore tetahi tohu e hoatu, ko te tohu anake o Hona poropiti.
And when the multitudes gathered together he began to say, This generation is evil. They seek a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah, the prophet.
30 I waiho nei hoki a Hona hei tohu ki nga tangata o Ninewe, ka pera ano te Tama a te tangata ki tenei whakatupuranga.
For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of man will be to this generation.
31 Ka whakatika ngatahi te kuini o te tonga i te whakawakanga me nga tangata o tenei whakatupuranga, ka whakatau i te he ki a ratou; i haere hoki ia i nga pito o te whenua ki te whakarongo ki te whakaaro nui o Horomona; a tenei tetahi he nui ke atu i a Horomona.
The queen of the south will awake in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
32 Ka whakatika ngatahi nga tangata o Ninewe i te whakawakanga me tenei whakatupuranga, ka whakatau i te he ki a ratou: i ripeneta hoki ratou i te kauwhautanga a Hona; a tenei tetahi he nui ke atu i a Hona.
The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
33 Ka tahuna te rama, e kore e waiho e te tangata ki te wahi ngaro, ki raro ranei i te puhera, engari ki runga ki te turanga, kia kitea ai te marama e te hunga e tomo atu ana.
And no man, having lit a lamp, puts it in a concealed place, nor under the bushel, but on the lampstand, so that those who enter in may see the light.
34 Ko te kanohi te rama o te tinana: na, ki te atea tou kanohi, ka marama ano tou tinana katoa; tena ki te kino, ka pouri ano hoki tou tinana.
The lamp of thy body is the eye. Therefore, when thine eye is sound, thy whole body is also bright, but when it is bad, thy body is also dark.
35 Na reira kia ata titiro mehemea ehara i te pouri te marama i roto i a koe.
Watch therefore the light in thee not be darkness.
36 Na, a ki te marama tou tinana katoa, a ki te kore ona wahi pouri, ka marama katoa ano, me te mea ko te mura o te rama e whakamarama ana i a koe.
If therefore thy whole body is bright, not having any part dark, the whole will be bright, as when the lamp illuminates thee by the radiance.
37 Na, i a ia e korero ana, ka tono tetahi parihi kia kai ia ki a ia; a haere ana ia ki roto, ka noho.
Now as he spoke a certain Pharisee asks him that he might dine with him. And having entered in, he sat down.
38 A, i te kitenga o te Parihi, ka miharo, no te mea kahore ia e horoi i mua o te kainga.
And when the Pharisee saw, he marveled that he did not first wash before dinner.
39 Ka mea te Ariki ki a ia, Tenei koutou, e nga Parihi, te horoi nei i waho o te kapu, o te rihi; ko roto ia o koutou e ki ana i te pahua, i te kino.
And the Lord said to him, Now ye Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your interior is full of plundering and wickedness.
40 E te hunga kuware, kihai ianei i hanga a roto e te kaihanga o waho?
Ye foolish men, did not he who made the outside also make the inside?
41 Engari hoatu nga mea o roto hei atawhainga mo nga rawakore; a ka ma nga mea katoa ki a koutou.
But give compassion, things that are inside, and behold, all things are clean to you.
42 Otira, aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga Parihi! e hoatu ana hoki e koutou te wahi whakatekau, o te miniti, o te ru, o nga otaota katoa, a kapea ake te whakarite whakawa me te aroha ki te Atua: he tika ano ko enei kia meatia, kia kaua ano hoki era e kapea.
But woe to you Pharisees! Because ye tithe mint and rue and every plant, and pass by justice and the love of God. It is necessary to do these things, and not to neglect those things.
43 Aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga parihi! ko ta koutou hoki e rawe ai ko nga nohoanga rangatira i nga whare karakia, me nga ohatanga i nga kainga hokohoko.
Woe to you Pharisees! Because ye love the place of honor in the synagogues, and the greetings in the marketplaces.
44 Aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga karaipi, e nga Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! e rite na koutou ki nga urupa ngaro, e kore e kitea e nga tangata e haereere ana i runga.
Woe to you scholars and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because ye are like the unseen sepulchers, and the men who walk over them do not know.
45 Na ka whakahoki tetahi o nga kaiwhakaako o te ture, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, he whakahe ano hoki mo matou enei korero au.
And having answered, a certain man of the lawyers says to him, Teacher, in saying these things thou rebuke us also.
46 Na ko tana meatanga, Aue, te mate mo koutou hoki, e nga kaiwhakaako o te ture! e whakawaha ana hoki koutou i nga tangata ki nga kawenga taimaha rawa hei pikaunga, a e kore tetahi o o koutou matihao e pa atu ki aua kawenga.
And he said, Woe also to you lawyers! Because ye load men with burdens difficult to bear, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Aue, te mate mo koutou! ko koutou nei hoki hei hanga i nga urupa o nga poropiti, na o koutou matua hoki ratou i whakamate.
Woe to you! Because ye build the sepulchers of the prophets, but your fathers killed them.
48 Na, he kaiwhakaatu koutou he kaiwhakaae ki nga mahi a o koutou matua: na ratou hoki ratou i whakamate, ko koutou hoki hei hanga i o ratou urupa.
Consequently, ye testify and approve the works of your fathers, because they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchers.
49 Na konei ano te matauranga o te Atua i mea ai, Maku e tono he poropiti, he apotoro ki a ratou, a ka whakamate, ka tukino ratou i etahi o ratou:
Because of this also the wisdom of God said, I will send to them prophets and apostles. And some of them they will kill and persecute,
50 Kia rapua ai he utu i tenei whakapaparanga mo te toto o nga poropiti katoa i ringihia nei no te timatanga ra ano o te ao;
so that the blood of all the prophets that was shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation,
51 No te toto o Apera, tae noa ki te toto o Hakaraia i mate nei ki waenganui o te aata, o te wahi tapu: ae ra, ka mea atu ahau ki a koutou, E rapua he utu i tenei whakapaparanga.
from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I say to you, it will be required of this generation.
52 Aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga kaiwhakaako o te ture! kua tangohia hoki e koutou te ki o te matauranga: kihai koutou i tomo ki roto, a i arai hoki koutou i te hunga e tomo ana.
Woe to you lawyers! Because ye took away the key of knowledge. Ye did not enter in yourselves, and ye hindered those who were entering in.
53 Na, i tona putanga mai ki waho, ka timata te tohetohe kaha a nga karaipi, a nga Parihi ki a ia, he mea kia maha atu ai ana korero:
And after he said these things to them, the scholars and the Pharisees began to harass him extremely, and to provoke him to speak impulsively about more things,
54 E whakamoho ana hoki, kia mau tetahi kupu a tona mangai.
waiting to ambush him, seeking to catch something out of his mouth so that they might accuse him.
