Maka 12
1 Na ka timata ia ki te korero kupu whakarite ki a ratou. I whakataiepatia ana ki te taiepa, na ka keria te takotoranga waina, hanga ana tetahi whare tiketike, tukua ana e ia ki nga kaimahi, na ko tona haerenga ki tawhiti.
And He began to speak unto them in parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and made a fence about it, and digged a place for the wine-fat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and travelled abroad.
2 A i te po i tika ai ka tonoa e ia he pononga ki nga kaimahi ki te tiki i etahi hua o te mara waina i a ratou.
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that he might receive from them of the fruit of the vineyard:
3 Na ka mau ratou ki a ia, a whiua ana, tonoa kautia atu ana.
and they took him and beat him, and sent him away empty.
4 Na ka tonoa ano e ia ki a ratou tetahi atu pononga; a ka akina ia e ratou ki te kohatu, ngawha iho tona matenga, a ka tukinotia ia e ratou ka tonoa atu.
And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they threw stones, and wounded him on the head, and sent him away shamefully used.
5 Na ka tonoa ano e ia tetahi atu; a whakamatea iho ia e ratou; me era atu, tona tini, ko etahi i whiua, ko etahi i whakamatea.
And again, he sent another; and him they killed: and many others, beating some, and killing others.
6 Na kotahi ake ano tana, he tama aroha nana, ko ia o muri rawa i tonoa ai e ia ki a ratou, i mea hoki ia, E hopohopo ratou ki taku tama.
Having yet therefore one Son, his beloved, he sent him also at last unto them, saying, they will reverence my Son.
7 Na ka mea aua kaimahi ki a ratou ano, Ko te tangata tenei mona te kainga; tena, tatou ka whakamate i a ia, a mo tatou te kainga.
But the husbandmen said to one another, this is the heir, Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
8 Na ka mau ratou ki a ia, whakamatea iho, maka ana ki waho o te mara waina.
And they took him, and killed Him too, casting him out of the vineyard.
9 Na, ka pehea te rangatira o te mara waina? ka haere ia, ka whakangaro i nga kaimahi, ka hoatu te mara waina ki etahi atu.
What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and will let the vineyard to others.
10 Kahore koia koutou i kite i tenei karaipiture; Ko te kohatu i kapea e nga kaihanga kua meinga hei mo te kokonga:
And have ye not read this scripture, "The stone, which the builders refused, is become the head of the corner:
11 Na te Ariki tenei, a he mea whakamiharo hoki ki a tatou kanohi?
this was from the Lord, and it is marvellous in our eyes."
12 Na ka whai ratou kia hopukina ia, otiia i mataku i te mano: i matau hoki ratou mo ratou te kupu whakarite i korerotia nei e ia: na whakarerea ana ia, haere ana ratou.
And they sought to lay hands on Him, but they were afraid of the people; (for they knew that He spake the parable against them) and they left Him, and went away.
13 Na ka tonoa mai e ratou ki a ia etahi o nga parihi, ratou ko nga Heroriana, hei hopu mo tetahi kupu ana.
And they send to Him some of the pharisees, and of the Herodians to insnare Him in his discourse:
14 A, no to ratou taenga mai, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, e matau ana matou he kupu pono tau, e kore ano ta te tangata e whakaaroa e koe; e kore ano koe e titiro ki te kanohi tangata, engari ka whakaako i te ara a te Atua i runga i te pono. H e mea tika ranei te hoatu takoha ki a Hiha, ehara ranei?
and these, when they came, said to Him, Master, we know that thou art a man of truth, and carest for no man; for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to pay tribute to Cesar, or not? should we give, or should we not give?
15 Me hoatu ranei e matou, kaua ranei e hoatu? Otira i mohio ia ki to ratou tinihanga, ka mea ki a ratou, He aha koutou ka whakamatautau ai i ahau? mauria mai he pene ki ahau, kia kite ahau.
But He knew their hypocrisy, and said to them, Why do ye tempt me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.
16 A mauria ana mai. Na ko tana meatanga ki a ratou, No wai tenei ahua me te tuhituhinga? Ka mea ratou ki a ia, No Hiha.
So they brought one: and He saith to them, Whose is this image and inscription? And they said Cesar's.
17 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Hoatu ki a Hiha nga mea a Hiha, ki te Atua nga mea a te Atua. A miharo ana ratou ki a ia.
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Render then unto Cesar the things that are Cesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at Him.
18 Na ka haere mai ki a ia nga Haruki, e mea nei kahore he aranga; ka ui ki a ia, ka mea,
Then come the sadducees to Him, who say there is no resurrection;
19 E te kaiwhakaako, i tuhituhi a Mohi ki a matou, Ki te mate te tuakana o tetahi tangata, mahue iho tana wahine, kahore he tamariki hei waihotanga iho, me tango tana wahine e tona teina, ka whakatupu uri ai mo tona tuakana.
and they asked Him, saying, Master, Moses, in his writings tells us, if any one's brother die, and leave a wife, and leave no children, that his brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
20 Na tera tetahi whanau, tokowhitu, he tuakana, he teina: ka tango to mua i te wahine, ka mate, a kahore he uri hei waihotanga iho.
Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife and died and left no seed;
21 Katahi ka tango te tuarua i a ia, ka mate, kahore ano hoki ona uri hei waihotanga iho: pera tonu ano hoki te tuatoru.
and the second took her, and died, and he left no seed neither; and the third likewise.
22 I tango ano te tokowhitu i a ia, a kahore o ratou uri hei waihotanga iho: muri rawa iho ka mate ko te wahine.
And all the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all died the woman also.
23 Na, i te aranga, i te mea ka ara ratou, ma wai o ratou te wahine? he wahine hoki ia na ratou tokowhitu.
In the resurrection therefore, when they rise again, whose wife shall be of them; for all the seven had her to wife?
24 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Ehara ianei tenei i te mea i he ai koutou, kahore nei hoki e mohio ki nga karaipiture, ki te kaha hoki o te Atua?
And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?
25 I te mea hoki ka ara mai ratou i te hunga mate, e kore e marena, e kore ano e hoatu kia marenatia; engari ka rite ki nga anahera o te rangi.
For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels in heaven.
26 Na mo te hunga mate, mo to ratou aranga mai: kahore koutou i kite i roto i te pukapuka a Mohi, i te wahi ki te Rakau, i ta te Atua i ki ai ki a ia, i mea ai, Ko te Atua ahau o Aperahama, ko te Atua o Ihaka, ko te Atua o Hakopa?
But as to the dead, that they are raised, have ye not read in the book of Moses, how God spake to him in the bush, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
27 Ehara ia i te Atua no te hunga mate, engari he Atua no te hunga ora: na nui atu to koutou he.
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: therefore ye do greatly mistake.
28 A, ko te haerenga mai o tetahi o nga karaipi, ko te rongonga ki a ratou e totohe ana, ka kite he pai tana whakahoki ki a ratou, ka ui ki a ia, Ko tehea te tuatahi o nga ture katoa?
And one of the scribes, who heard them disputing, seeing that He answered them well, came to Him and asked Him, Which is the chief commandment of all?
29 Na ko te whakahokinga a Ihu ki a ia, Ko te tuatahi o nga ture katoa, Whakarongo, e Iharaira: Ko te Ariki, ko to tatou Atua, he Ariki kotahi:
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is the one Lord,
30 Kia whakapaua hoki tou ngakau, tou wairua, tou hinengaro, tou kaha, ki te aroha ki te Ariki, ki tou Atua: ko te ture tuatahi tenei.
and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength:" this is the first or chief commandment,
31 Ko te tuarua tenei, Kia aroha koe ki tou hoa tata, ano ko koe. Kahore he ture ke atu e rahi ake ana i enei.
and the second is like it, even this, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself:" there is no other commandment greater than these.
32 Na ka mea te karaipi ki a ia, he pono, e te Kaiwhakaako, he tika tau korero kotahi tonu ia, a kahore tetahi ko ia anake:
And the scribe said unto Him, Truly, Master, thou hast spoke exceeding well; for there is one God, and there is no other beside Him.
33 A ko te whakapau i te ngakau, i te hinengaro, i te wairua, i te kaha, ki te aroha ki a ia, me te aroha ki tona hoa tata, ano ko ia, nui atu ena i nga tahunga tinana, i nga patunga tapu katoa.
And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole-burnt-offerings and sacrifices.
34 A, no te kitenga o ihu he kupu mohio tana i whakahoki ai, ka mea ki a ia, Kahore koe i matara atu i te rangatiratanga o te Atua. A kihai tetahi tangata i maia ki te ui ki a ia i muri iho.
And Jesus seeing that he answered discreetly, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no one dared any more to put questions to Him.
35 Na ka ki a Ihu, ka mea, i a ia e whakaako ana i roto i te temepara, Na te aha nga karaipi ka mea ai, he tama na Rawiri a te Karaiti?
And Jesus spake and said, as He was teaching in the temple, How do the scribes say, that the Christ is the son of David?
36 Na Rawiri ake hoki te kupu i roto i te Wairua Tapu, I mea te Ariki ki toku Ariki, hei toku matau koe noho ai, kia meinga ra ano e ahau ou hoariri hei turanga waewae mou.
for David himself said by the holy Spirit, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
37 Ko Rawiri tonu tenei e karanga nei ki a ia he Ariki; a no hea ia i tama ai ki a ia? A ahuareka ana te mano tini ki te whakarongo ki a ia.
So that David himself calleth Him Lord: how then is He his son? And many of the people heard Him with pleasure.
38 Na i mea ano ia ki a ratou i tana akoranga, Kia tupato ki nga karaipi, ko ta ratou e rawe ai ko te haereere i roto i nga kakahu roroa, me nga ohatanga i nga kainga hokohoko,
And He said unto them as He was teaching them, Beware of the scribes, who love to walk in long robes, and salutations in public-places,
39 Me nga nohoanga rangatira i nga whare karakia, me nga nohoanga rangatira i nga hakari:
and the chief seats in the synagogues, and uppermost places at feasts;
40 Ka pau nei i a ratou nga whare o nga pouaru, a ka maminga ki te inoi roa: he nui rawa te mate e pa ki enei.
who devour widows houses, and for a shew of religion make long prayers: these shall receive the heavier judgement.
41 A ka noho a Ihu i te ritenga atu o te takotoranga moni, ka matakitaki ki te mano e panga moni ana ki te takotoranga moni: a he tokomaha nga tangata whai taonga i panga moni maha ki roto.
And as Jesus was sitting over against the treasury, He saw how the people threw money into the treasury, and many of the rich put in much;
42 Na ko te haerenga mai o tetahi pouaru rawakore, ka maka i nga mea nohinohi, e rua, kotahi patena ki te huia.
and there came a poor widow and put in two mites, that is, a farthing.
43 Na ka karangatia e ia ana akonga, ka mea ki a ratou, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ko ta tenei pouaru rawakore i maka ai, nui atu i a ratou katoa e maka ra kite takotoranga moni:
And He called his disciples to Him, and saith unto them, Verily I tell you, that this poor widow has given more than all those who have cast into the treasury.
44 Ko ratou katoa hoki, he hira nei o ratou taonga, i maka ko tetahi wahi; tena ko ia i tona rawakoretanga i maka i ana mea katoa, ara i tona oranga katoa.
For they all have contributed out of their abundance: but she out of her penury hath given all that she had, even her whole living.
