Ruka 19
1 A ka tomo ia, a tika ana ra waenganui o Heriko,
He entered and was passing through Jericho.
2 Na ko tetahi tangata, ko Hakiaha te ingoa i huaina ai, he rangatira pupirikana, he tangata taonga ano:
And look, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.
3 I whai ia kia kite i a Ihu he pehea ranei ia: heoi kihai i taea ia i te mano, he tangata poto hoki.
He was trying to see who Jesus was, and could not because of the crowd, because he was short.
4 Na ka oma ia ki mua, a kake ana ki tetahi hokamora, kia kite i a ia: meake hoki ia tika ra reira.
He ran on ahead, and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way.
5 A, no ka tae a Ihu ki taua wahi, ka titiro ake, ka mea ki a ia, E Hakiaha, kia hohoro te heke iho; me noho hoki ahau ki tou whare aianei.
And as he came to the place, looking up, Jesus saw him, and said to him, "Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house."
6 A hohoro tonu tona heke iho, a ka koa ki a ia hei manuhiri mana.
He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully.
7 A, i to ratou kitenga, ka amuamu katoa, ka mea, Kua riro ia ki te tangata hara noho ai.
And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, "He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner."
8 Na ka tu a Hakiaha, ka mea ki te Ariki, E te Ariki, na e hoatu ana e ahau te hawhe o aku taonga ki te hunga rawakore; a, ki te mea kua riro he mai i ahau te mea a tetahi, ka takiwhatia e ahau taku utu.
And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, "Look, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor. If I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much."
9 Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ia, Nonaianei te ora i tae mai ai ki tenei whare, he tama nei hoki ia na Aperahama.
Jesus said to him, "Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.
10 I haere mai hoki te Tama a te tangata ki te rapu, ki te whakaora i te mea i ngaro.
For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost."
11 A, i a ratou e whakarongo ana ki enei mea, ka korerotia ano e ia tetahi kupu whakarite, no te mea e tata ana ia ki Hiruharama, e mea ana hoki ratou, ko taua wa pu ano whakakitea ai te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
As they heard these things, he went on and told a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and they supposed that the Kingdom of God would be revealed immediately.
12 Na reira ia ka mea, I haere tetahi rangatira nui ki tetahi whenua mamao, kia riro mai i a ia tetahi rangatiratanga, ka hoki mai ai.
He said therefore, "A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
13 Kotahi tekau ana pononga i karangatia e ia, kotahi tekau nga pauna i hoatu e ia ki a ratou, ka mea ki a ratou, Mahia enei, kia hoki mai ra ano ahau.
He called ten servants of his, and gave them ten mina coins, and told them, 'Conduct business until I come.'
14 Otira i kino tona iwi ki a ia, ka tono karere i muri i a ia, ka mea, E kore matou e pai ki tenei hei kingi mo matou.
But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, 'We do not want this man to reign over us.'
15 A, i tona hokinga mai, kua riro mai hoki i a ia te rangatiratanga, ka mea kia karangatia ki a ia aua pononga, i hoatu nei e ia te moni ki a ratou, kia kite ai ia i ta tetahi, i ta tetahi i mahi ai.
"It happened when he had come back again, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by conducting business.
16 Ka tae mai to mua, ka mea, E te ariki, ka ngahuru nga pauna kua mahia ki tau pauna.
The first came before him, saying, 'Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.'
17 Ka mea ia ki a ia, Ka pai, e te pononga pai: pono tonu tau mahi i te mea nohinohi rawa, na, hei rangatira koe mo nga pa kotahi tekau.
"And he said to him, 'Well done, good servant. Because you were faithful with very little, you will have authority over ten cities.'
18 A, ko te haerenga mai o te tuarua, ka mea, E te ariki, e rima nga pauna kua mahia ki tau pauna.
"The second came, saying, 'Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.'
19 Ka mea ia ki tenei, Hei rangatira ano koe mo nga pa e rima.
"So he said to him, 'And you are to be over five cities.'
20 Na, ko te haerenga mai o tetahi, ka mea, E te ariki, na, tau pauna: i te rongoa hoki i ahau i roto i te tauera:
Another came, saying, 'Lord, look, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,
21 I mataku hoki ahau i a koe, no te mea he tangata uaua koe: e tango ana koe i te mea kihai i whakatakotoria iho e koe, e kokoti ana i te mea kihai i ruia e koe.
for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you did not lay down, and reap that which you did not sow.'
22 Na, ko tana meatanga ki a ia, Kei ta tou mangai he whakaheanga maku i a koe, e te pononga kino. I mohio koe he tangata uaua ahau, e tango ana i te mea kihai i whakatakotoria e ahau, e kokoti ana i te mea kihai i ruia e ahau:
"He said to him, 'Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I did not lay down, and reaping that which I did not sow.
23 He aha koe te hoatu ai i taku moni ki te peeke, penei kua riro mai taua mea i ahau, me ona hua ano, i toku taenga mai?
Then why did you not deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?'
24 Na ka mea ia ki te hunga e tu tata ana, Tangohia te pauna i a ia, hoatu hoki ki tera i nga pauna kotahi tekau.
He said to those who stood by, 'Take the mina away from him, and give it to him who has the ten minas.'
25 Ka mea ratou ki a ia, E te ariki kotahi nei tekau ana pauna.
"They said to him, 'Lord, he has ten minas.'
26 Ko taku kupu hoki tenei ki a koutou, Ki te whai mea tetahi, ka hoatu ano ki a ia; ki te kahore he mea a tetahi, ko ana mea ake ka tangohia i a ia.
'For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away.
27 Tena ko aua hoariri oku kihai nei i pai ki ahau hei kingi mo ratou, arahina mai ki konei, ka patu ki toku aroaro.
But bring those enemies of mine who did not want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.'"
28 A, no ka mutu enei korero, ka turia atu e ia ki mua, ka haere ki Hiruharama.
Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
29 A, no ka tata ia ki Petapaki, ki Petani, ki te maunga e kiia nei ko to nga Oriwa, na tokorua ana akonga i tonoa e ia.
It happened, when he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples,
30 I mea ia, Haere korua ki te kainga e anga mai ana ki a korua; a, no ka tomo atu, ka kite korua i tetahi kuao kaihe e here ana, he mea kahore ano i nohoia noatia e te tangata: wetekina, arahina mai.
saying, "Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, whereon no one ever yet sat. Untie it, and bring it.
31 Ki te mea hoki tetahi ki a korua, He aha i wetekina ai e korua? kia penei ta korua ki atu, E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mona.
If anyone asks you, 'Why are you untying it?' say to him: 'Because the Lord needs it.'"
32 Na, haere atu ana te hunga i tonoa, rokohanga atu, rite tonu ki tana i korero ai ki a raua.
Those who were sent went away, and found things just as he had told them.
33 Na, i a raua e wewete ana i te kuao, ka mea ona rangatira ki a raua, He aha korua ka wewete ai i te kuao na?
As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, "Why are you untying the colt?"
34 Na ko ta raua meatanga atu, E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mona.
They said, "Because the Lord needs it."
35 Na ka arahina ia ki a Ihu: a panga iho e raua o raua kakahu ki runga ki te kuao, whakanohoia ana a Ihu ki runga.
They brought it to Jesus. They threw their cloaks on the colt, and set Jesus on them.
36 A, i a ia e haere ana, ka wharikitia o ratou kakahu ki te huarahi.
As he went, they spread their cloaks in the way.
37 A, i a ia e whakatata ana ki te heketanga o Maunga Oriwa, ka koa te huihui katoa o nga akonga, ka anga ka whakamoemiti ki te Atua, he nui hoki te reo, mo nga merekara katoa i kite ai ratou;
As he was now getting near, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen,
38 Ka mea, Ka whakapaingia te Kingi e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki: he rongo mau ki runga ki te rangi, he kororia ki runga rawa.
saying, "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord. Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest."
39 Na ka mea etahi o nga Parihi i roto i te mano ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, riria au akonga.
Some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples."
40 Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea, Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, me i noho puku enei, kua karanga ake nga kamaka.
He answered them, "I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out."
41 A, no ka tata ia, ka kite i te pa, ka tangihia e ia.
When he drew near, he saw the city and wept over it,
42 Ka mea ia, Me i mohio koe, a koe ano, ahakoa i tenei ra nei ano ou, ki nga mea e mau ai tou rongo! ko tenei kua huna atu i ou kanohi.
saying, "If you, even you, had known today the things that make for peace. But now, they are hidden from your eyes.
43 Tera hoki e tae mai nga ra ki a koe, e hanga ai e ou hoariri he parepare mou a taka noa, a ka karapotia koe, ka kopania hoki i nga taha katoa.
For the days will come on you, when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, surround you, hem you in on every side,
44 A ka whakahoroa koe ki raro, me au tamariki i roto i a koe; e kore ano e waiho tetahi kamaka i runga i tetahi kamaka i roto i a koe; no te mea kihai koe i matau ki te wa i tirohia ai koe.
and will dash you and your children within you to the ground. They will not leave in you one stone on another, because you did not know the time of your visitation."
45 A ka tomo ia ki te temepara, ka anga ka pei ki waho i te hunga i reira e hoko ana.
And he entered into the temple, and began to drive out those who were selling and buying in it,
46 Ka mea ki a ratou, Kua oti te tuhituhi, Ko toku whare hei whare inoi: a kua meinga nei e koutou hei ana mo nga kaipahua.
saying to them, "It is written, 'And my house will be a house of prayer,' but you have made it a 'den of robbers'."
47 A whakaako ana ia i te temepara i ia ra, i a ra. Otiia ka rapu nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi me nga rangatira o te iwi kia whakangaromia ia;
He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests and the scribes and the leaders among the people sought to destroy him.
48 Heoi kihai i kitea ta ratou e mea ai: no te mea e u ana nga tangata katoa ki a ia, e whakarongo ana.
They could not find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.
