Ruka 9
1 Na ka karangatia e ia te tekau ma rua, ka hoatu ki a ratou he kaha, he mana, e peia ai nga rewera katoa, e ora ai nga mate.
THEN calling his twelve disciples, he gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
2 A tonoa ana ratou e ia ki te kauwhau i te rangatiratanga o te Atua, ki te whakaora hoki i te hunga e mate ana.
And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
3 I mea ano ia ki a ratou, Kaua tetahi mea e mauria ki te ara, kaua he tokotoko, kaua he putea, kaua he taro, kaua he moni; kaua ano e takiruatia he koti.
And he said to them, Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs, nor satchel, nor bread, nor money, nor have two coats each.
4 A ka tomo koutou ki tetahi whare, hei reira noho ai a haere noa i reira.
And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide, and thence go out.
5 A, ki te kahore etahi e manako ki a koutou, ina haere atu koutou i taua pa, ruia atu te puehu o o koutou waewae, hei mea whakaatu ki a ratou.
And whosoever shall not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the dust from your feet, for a testimony against them.
6 Na, ko to ratou mawehetanga atu, ka haereerea e ratou nga kainga, me te kauwhau i te rongopai, me te whakaora i nga wahi katoa.
And they went forth, and passed through the villages, preaching the gospel, and performing cures everywhere.
7 A ka rongo a Herora tetaraki i nga mea katoa i meinga e ia: a he nui tona pororaru, no te mea ki ta etahi ki, kua ara mai a Hoani i te hunga mate;
Then Herod the tetrarch heard of all things that were done by him; and he was in much distraction of mind, because it was said by some, that John was risen from the dead:
8 Ki ta etahi, kua puta mai a Iraia; ki ta etahi, kua ara mai tetahi o nga poropiti onamata.
and of some that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the ancient prophets was risen again.
9 Na ka mea a Herora, I poutoa e ahau te matenga o Hoani: ko wai hoki tenei mona nei enei korero ka rangona nei e ahau? A ka whai ia kia kite i a ia.
And Herod said, John I beheaded; but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
10 A, no te hokinga mai o nga apotoro, ka korerotia ki a ia nga mea katoa i mea ai ratou. A ka tango ia i a ratou, ka haere ko ratou anake ki tetahi pa, ko Petahaira te ingoa.
And when the apostles returned, they told him what they had done. And taking them, he withdrew privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.
11 Otira, i te kitenga o nga mano, ka aru i a ia: a ka manaaki ia i a ratou, ka korerotia ki a ratou te rangatiratanga o te Atua, whakaorangia ana hoki e ia te hunga e mea ana kia rongoatia.
But when the multitudes knew it, they followed him and receiving them, he spake to them concerning the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of a cure.
12 Na kua titaha haere te ra; a ka haere mai te tekau ma rua, ka mea ki a ia, Tonoa te mano, kia haere ai ki nga kainga, ki nga whenua i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, moe ai, ki te mea kei hoki ma ratou; he wahi koraha hoki tenei i a tatou nei.
Now the day began to decline: and the twelve coming to him, said, Dismiss the multitude, that going away into the villages and farms round about, they may lodge and find provision; for here we are in a desert place.
13 A ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ma koutou e hoatu he kai ma ratou. ka mea ratou, heoi ano a matou e rima nga taro, e rua nga ika; ki te kahore ano ia matou e haere ki te hoko kai ma tenei iwi katoa.
Then he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves, and two fishes; unless we go somewhere and buy provisions for all this multitude:
14 Me te mea ano e rima mano nga tane. Ka mea ia ki ana akonga, Meinga ratou kia noho, kia rima tekau ki te nohoanga.
for there were about five thousand men. Then said he to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties each in companies.
15 A pera ana ratou, meinga katoatia ana kia noho.
And they did so: and they made them all sit down.
16 Na ka mau ia ki nga taro e rima, ki nga ika e rua, ka titiro ake ki te rangi, ka whakapai i aua mea, ka whawhati, ka hoatu ki nga akonga kia whakatakotoria atu ma te mano.
And taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.
17 Na ka kai ratou, ka makona katoa: a kotahi tekau ma rua nga kete i kohia ake e ratou, he toenga na ratou no nga whatiwhatinga.
And they did all eat, and were filled; and there were taken up of the fragments which were more than enough for them, twelve baskets.
18 A, i a ia e inoi ana ko ia anake, i a ia ano ana akonga: na ka ui ia ki a ratou, ka mea, Ko wai ahau ki te ki a te mano?
And it came to pass, as he had been praying in retirement, his disciples were with him, and he asked them, Who do the multitudes say that I am?
19 Na ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea, Ko Hoani Kaiiriiri; ki ta etahi ia, ko iraia; ki ta etahi, kua ara mai tetahi o nga poropiti onamata.
And they answering said, John the Baptist; but some Elias; and others, that one of the old prophets is risen again.
20 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ki ta koutou na ki, ko wai ahau? Ka whakahoki a Pita, ka mea, Ko te Karaiti a te Atua.
And he said to them, But who do ye say that I am? Then Peter answering said, The Messiah of God.
21 Katahi ia ka whakatupato i a ratou, ka mea, kia kaua tenei e korerotia ki te tangata;
And strictly charging them, he commanded, that they should tell no man this:
22 I mea ano ia, Kua takoto te tikanga kia maha nga mamae o te Tama a te tangata, kia whakakahoretia ano ia e nga kaumatua, e nga tohunga nui, e nga karaipi, kia whakamatea, a i te toru o nga ra ka whakaarahia.
saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and be put to death, and on the third day rise again.
23 I mea ano ia ki a ratou katoa, Ki te mea tetahi kia haere mai i muri i ahau, me whakakahore ia e ia ano, me amo tona ripeka i nga ra katoa, ka aru ai i ahau.
And he said unto them, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
24 Ki te whai hoki tetahi kia ora, ka mate ia: otira ki te mate tetahi, mona i whakaaro ki ahau, ka ora ia.
For whosoever would preserve his life shall lose it; but whosoever would lose his life for my sake, shall preserve it.
25 He aha oti te pai ki te tangata, ki te riro i a ia te ao katoa, a ka ngaro ko ia ano, ka riro ranei i te he?
For what advantage hath a man in gaining all the would, if he destroy himself, or be punished with the loss of life?
26 Ki te whakama hoki tetahi ki ahau, a ki aku korero, ka whakama ano te Tama a te tangata ki a ia, ina haere mai ia i runga i tona ake kororia, i te kororia hoki o te Matua, o nga anahera tapu.
For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in his own glory, and his father’s, and of the holy angels.
27 Na he pono taku korero ki a koutou, Tenei ano etahi o te hunga e tu nei e kore e pangia e te mate, kia kite ra ano i te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
And I tell you of a certainty, there are some of those who stand here, who shall not taste death, till they see the kingdom of God.
28 A ka tata ki te waru o nga ra i muri i enei korero, ka mau ia ki a Pita, ki a Hoani, ki a Hemi, ka haere ki runga ki te maunga ki te inoi.
And it was about eight days after these discourses, that taking Peter, and John, and James, he went up into a mountain to pray.
29 A, i a ia e inoi ana, ka puta ke te ahau o tona mata, ma tonu tona kakahu, kanapa tonu.
And it came to pass, as he was at prayer, that the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his raiment white and refulgent.
30 Na, tokorua nga tangata e korero tahi ana me ia, ko Mohi raua ko Iraia:
And, lo! two men conversed with him, who were Moses and Elias:
31 I puta kororia mai, i korero ano ki tona matenga meake nei rite i a ia ki Hiruharama.
who appeared in glory, and mentioned his departure, which he was ready to accomplish at Jerusalem.
32 I pehia hoki a Pita ratou ko ona hoa e te moe: a, i to ratou aranga ake, ka kite i tona kororia, me nga tangata tokorua e tu tahi ana me ia.
But Peter and they who were with him were weighed down with sleep: but when they awoke, they beheld his glory, and the two men who were standing with them.
33 A i a raua e mawehe atu ana i a ia, ka mea a Pita ki a Ihu, E kara, he pai kia noho tatou i konei: na kia hanga e matou etahi wharau kia toru; kia kotahi mou, kia kotahi mo Mohi, kia kotahi mo Iraia: kihai ia i mohio ki tana i korero ai.
And it came to pass, as they were departing from him, Peter said unto Jesus, it is well that we are here, and we will make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias; not knowing what he said.
34 A i a ia e korero ana i enei mea, ka puta he kapua, a taumaru iho ana ki a ratou: a mataku ana ratou i to ratou haerenga ki roto ki te kapua.
And as he was thus speaking, a cloud came and overshadowed them: and they were afraid as they were entering into the cloud.
35 Na ka puta mai he reo i te kapua, e mea ana, Ko taku Tama tenei, ko taku i whiriwhiri ai: whakarongo ki a ia.
And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son; hear him.
36 A, no te putanga o te reo, ko Ihu anake i kitea. A whakarongo puku ana ratou, kihai hoki i korerotia e ratou ki te tangata i aua ra tetahi o nga mea i kite ai ratou.
And when the voice ceased, Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days a word of the things which they had seen.
37 Na, i te aonga ake o te ra, i a ratou kua tatu iho i runga i te maunga, he rahi te hui i tutaki ki a ia.
And it came to pass, on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.
38 Na ka karanga tetahi tangata i roto i te mano, ka mea, Tena koa, e te Kaiwhakaako, titiro mai ki taku tama: ko ia anake hoki taku.
And, behold, a man from among the multitude cried out aloud, saying, Master, I pray thee, look upon my son; for he is my only begotten.
39 Na ka hopu te wairua i a ia, inamata ka hamama; na ka haehae i a ia, tutu ana te huka i a ia; whakauaua ana te whakarere i a ia, a maru iho ia.
And, behold! a spirit taketh him, and suddenly he crieth out, and convulseth him, with foaming; and bruising him, with difficulty retires from him.
40 A i te inoi ahau ki au akonga kia peia ia ki waho: heoi kihai i taea e ratou.
And I besought thy disciples that they would cast him out, and they could not.
41 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea, E te uri whakaponokore, parori ke, kia pehea te roa o toku noho ki a koutou, o toku manawanui ki a koutou? Kawea mai tau tama ki konei.
Then Jesus answering, said, O faithless and perverse generation! how long shall I be with you, how long shall I bear with you? bring hither thy son.
42 Na i a ia e haere mai ana, ka taia iho ia e te rewera, haehaea iho. Na ka riria te wairua poke e Ihu, a whakaorangia ana te tamaiti, hoatu ana ki tona papa.
And while he was yet approaching the devil threw him down, and violently convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and cured the child; and restored him to his father.
43 Oho mauri katoa ana ratou ki te nui o te Atua. A, i a ratou e miharo ana ki nga mea katoa i meinga e Ihu, ka mea ia ki ana akonga,
And they were all struck with amazement at the mighty power of God. And while they were all wondering at the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,
44 Rongoatia enei korero ki roto ki o koutou taringa: meake hoki tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga ringa o nga tangata.
Keep ye these sayings in your ears; for the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men.
45 Otira kihai ratou i mohio ki tenei kupu, he mea huna hoki i a ratou, kei kite ratou: i mataku hoki ratou ki te ui ki a ia i taua kupu.
And they understood not that declaration, and it was hid from them, that they should not comprehend its meaning: and they were afraid to ask him concerning that saying.
46 Na ka puta ake he korerorero i roto i a ratou, ko wai o ratou te mea nui rawa.
Then a dispute sprang up among them, which of them should be the greatest.
47 Otira, i te kitenga o Ihu i e whakaaroaronga a o ratou ngakau, ka mau ia ki tetahi tamaiti nohinohi, a whakaturia ana ki tona taha,
But Jesus knowing the reasoning of their hearts, took a little boy, and set him by his side,
48 Ka mea ki a ratou, Ki te manako tetahi ki tenei tamaiti, na te whakaaro hoki ki toku ingoa, e manako ana ia ki ahau: ki te manako hoki tetahi ki ahau, e manako ana ia ki toku kaitono mai: na, ko te iti rawa i roto i a koutou katoa ko ia hei mea nui.
and said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name, receiveth me; and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth Him that sent me: for he who is the least among you all, he shall be great.
49 Na, ka whakahoki a Hoani, ka mea, E kara, i kite matou i tetahi e pei rewera ana i runga i tou ingoa; a riria iho e matou, mona kahore e haere tahi tatou.
Then John addressing him said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and we forbad him, because he followed not with us.
50 Otira i mea a Ihu ki a ia, Kaua e riria: ki te mea hoki ehara tetahi i te hoa whawhai no koutou, no koutou ia.
And Jesus said to him, Forbid him not; for he that is not against us, is for us.
51 A, no ka tata nga ra mo tona tangohanga ki runga, ka whakamau tona kanohi ki te haere ki Hiruharama,
And it came to pass, as the days hastened to their period when he should be received up to glory, that he resolutely set his face to go to Jerusalem;
52 A ka tonoa atu e ia he karere i mua i tona aroaro: a ka haere ratou, ka tomo ki tetahi kainga o nga Hamari ki te mea tukunga iho mona.
and sent messengers before his face; and they advancing entered into a Samaritan village, to make preparation for him.
53 Heoi kihai era i manako ki a ia, ko te ahua hoki o tona kanohi me te mea e haere ana ia ki Hiruharama.
And they would not admit him, because his face was directed to Jerusalem.
54 A, no te kitenga o ana akonga, o Hemi raua ko Hoani, ka mea raua, E te Ariki, e pai ana ranei koe kia korerotia e maua he kapura kia heke iho i te rangi, hei whakangaro i a ratou?
And when the disciples James and John saw it, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven and destroy them, just as Elias did?
55 Otira ka tahuri ia, ka riria raua, kahore korua e matau no tehea wairua korua.
And turning to them, he reproved them, and said, Ye know not what spirit ye are of:
56 Kihai hoki te Tama a te tangata i haere mai ki te whakamate tangata, engari ki te whakaora. na haere ana ratou he kainga ke.
for the Son of man came not to destroy men’s lives, but to preserve them. And he proceeded to another village.
57 A, i a ratou e haere ana i te ara, ka mea tetahi tangata ki a ia, Ka aru ahau i a koe ki nga wahi katoa e haere ai koe.
And it came to pass, as they were walking on the road, a certain person said to him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
58 Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ia, He rua o nga pokiha, he kohanga o nga manu o te rangi; tena ko te Tama a te tangata hore ona wahi e takoto ai tona matenga.
And Jesus Said to him, The foxes have holts, and the birds of the air, nests, but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
59 Ka mea ia ki tetahi atu, Arumia mai ahau. A ka mea ia, E te Ariki, tukua ahau kia matua haere ki te tanu i toku papa.
And he said to another, Follow me. And he said, Lord, permit me first to return home, and put my father in his grave.
60 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Waiho ma nga tupapaku e tanu o ratou na tupapaku: ko koe ia me haere ki te kauwhau i te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
And Jesus said unto him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but go thou, preach the kingdom of God.
61 Ka mea hoki tetahi atu, E te Ariki, ka aru ahau i a koe; otira tukua ahau kia matua poroporoaki ki te hunga i toku whare.
Then said another, I will follow thee, Lord, but give me leave first to bid adieu to those at my house.
62 Otira ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ki te pa te ringa o tetahi ki te parau, a ka titiro ki muri, e kore ia e tau mo te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
But Jesus said unto him, No man laying his hand on the plough, and looking to the things left behind, is fit for the kingdom of God.
