Maka 1
1 Ko te timatanga o te rongopai o Ihu Karaiti, o te Tama a te Atua;
Beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
2 Ko te mea ia i tuhituhia i roto i ta Ihaia poropiti, Na ka tonoa e ahau taku karere i mua i tou aroaro, mana e whakapai tou ara i mua i a koe.
even as it is written in the prophet Isaiah, Behold, I am sending my messenger before your face to prepare your way.
3 He reo no tetahi i te koraha e karanga ana, Whakapaia te huarahi o te Ariki, Whakatikaia ona ara.
The voice of one crying aloud. In the desert make ready a road for the Lord. Make his paths straight.
4 I haere mai a Hoani, ka iriiri i te koraha, ka kauwhau i te iriiri ripeneta hei murunga hara.
In the desert came Johnwho baptized, and preached a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
5 Na ka haere ki a ia te whenua katoa o Huria, me nga tangata o Hiruharama, a iriiria katoatia ana e ia ki te awa ki Horano, me te whaki ano i o ratou hara.
and all the land of Judea, and all the people of Jerusalem, kept going out to him, and were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
6 Na ko te kakahu o Hoani he huruhuru kamera, he hiako hoki te whitiki o tona hope; ko tana kai he mawhitiwhiti he honi koraha.
And Johnwas clothed with camel’s hair, and he had a leather girdle round his loins, and he ate locusts, and "honey of the wood."
7 A i kauwhau ia, i mea, Tenei te haere mai nei i muri i ahau tetahi he kaha rawa ake i ahau, e kore ahau e tau ki te piko iho wewete ai i te here o ona hu.
He made proclamation. "There is One mightier than I coming after me, and I am not worthy to stoop down and unfasten his sandal strap;
8 Ko ahau nei, he iriiri taku i a koutou ki te wai: mana ia koutou e iriiri ki te Wairua Tapu.
I have baptized you in water, but he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit."
9 A i aua ra ka haere mai a Ihu i Nahareta o Kariri, ka iriiria e Hoani ki Horano.
It was at that time that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by Johnin the Jordan;
10 A, i taua wa ano i a ia e haere ake ana i te wai, ka kaite ia i nga rangi e wahia ana kia tuwhera, me te Wairua, ano he kukupa, e heke iho ana ki a ia:
and as soon as he rose from the water he saw the sky cleft asunder, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him,
11 A ka puta mai he reo no te rangi, e mea ana, Ko koe taku Tama i aroha ai, taku i ahuareka ai.
and a voice from the sky. "Thou art my Son, my beloved; in thee is my delight."
12 A i reira pu ano ka tonoa ia e te Wairua ki te koraha.
Then the Spirit drove him at once into the desert,
13 A e wha tekau ona ra i reira i te koraha e whakamatautauria ana e Hatana; i roto ia i nga kararehe mohoao: ko nga anahera hoki ki te mahi mea mana.
and he remained in the desert for forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was among the wild beasts, but the angels were ministering to him.
14 Na, i muri i a Hoani i tukua ai ki te herehere, ka haere a Ihu ki Kariri, ka kauwhau i te rongopai o te Atua,
After Johnhad been thrown into prison Jesus came into Galilee preaching the gospel of God.
15 Ka mea, Kua rite tenei te wa, kua tata hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua: ripeneta, whakaponohia te rongopai.
"The time is now come," he said, "and the kingdom of God is near! Repent and believe the gospel."
16 Na, i a ia e haere ana i te taha o te moana o Kariri, ka kite i a Haimona raua ko tona teina, ko Anaru, e maka ana i te kupenga ki te moana: he kaihao ika hoki raua.
And as he was passing along by the sea of Galilee he saw Simon and Andrew, Simon’s brother, casting their net into the sea, for they were fishermen;
17 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a raua, Haere mai i muri i ahau, a maku korua e mea hei kaihao tangata.
so Jesus said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men."
18 A mahue tonu ake i a raua nga kupenga, aru ana i a ia.
At once they left their nets and followed him.
19 A, haere tata atu ana i reira, ka kite ia i a Hemi, tama a Heperi, raua ko tona teina ko Hoani, i te kaipuke ano raua e ta ana i nga korenga o a ratou kupenga.
As he went a little farther on he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and Johnhis brother, who also were in their boat mending the nets.
20 Na karanga tonu atu ia i a raua: a mahue ake i a raua to raua matua a Heperi i te kaipuke me nga kaimahi, a haere ana i muri i a ia.
Straightway he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants and went after him.
21 A ka tomo ratou ki Kaperenauma; na haere tonu ia i te hapati ki te whare karakia, ka whakaako.
So they came to Capernaum, and as soon as the Sabbath Day came he went into the synagogue and began to teach.
22 A miharo ana ratou ki tana ako: i rite hoki tana ako i a ratou ki ta te tangata whai mana, kihai i rite ki ta nga karaipi.
They were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them with authority, not like the Scribes.
23 Na i to ratou whare karakia tetahi tangata, he wairua poke tona; a ka karanga ia,
And at that very moment, there in their synagogue, a man in the grip of an unclean spirit shrieked out.
24 Ka mea, Kati ra, he aha ta matou ki a koe, e Ihu o Nahareta? kua tae mai ranei koe ki te whakangaro i a matou? e matau ana ahau ko wai koe, ko te Mea Tapu a te Atua.
"What business have you with us, you Jesus of Nazareth? Are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy One of God."
25 A ka riri a Ihu ki a ia, ka mea, Kati te korero, puta mai i roto i a ia.
But Jesus rebuked him, saying. "Be quit! Come out of him."
26 Na ka haehae te wairua kino i a ia, nui atu hoki tona reo ki te karanga, a puta ana mai i roto i a ia.
So the unclean spirit, after tearing him, came out of him with a loud cry;
27 A miharo noa ratou katoa, uiui ana ki a ratou ano, mea ana, He aha tenei? he aha tenei ako hou? mana tonu tana nei tono i nga wairua poke, a rongo rawa ki a ia.
and every one was amazed so that they began questioning among themselves. "What does this mean? A new teaching with authority? He lays commands even upon unclean spirits and they obey him."
28 Na paku tonu atu tona rongo ki nga wahi katoa e tata ana ki Kariri.
And at once his fame spread everywhere through that part of Galilee.
29 Na i reira tonu, i to ratou putanga mai i te whare karakia, tomo tonu atu ratou ko hemi, ko Hoani, ki te whare o Haimona raua ko Anaru.
On leaving the synagogue they went at once with Jamesand Johnto the house of Simon and Andrew.
30 Na i te takoto te hungawai wahine o Haimona, he kirika, a korerotia tonutia atu ia e ratou ki a ia.
Now Simon’s mother-in-law lay sick of fever, and without delay they told him about her.
31 Heoi, i tona taenga atu, ka mau ki tona ringa, whakaarahia ana ia; mutu tonu ake tona kirika, ka tahuri ki te taka mea ma ratou.
So he came and took her hand and raised her up. The fever left her at once, and she began to wait upon them.
32 Na i te ahiahi, i te toenetanga o te ra, ka mauria mai ki a ia nga turoro katoa, me te hunga e nohoia ana e nga rewera.
At evening when the sun had set, people came and brought to him all the sick and demon-possessed,
33 A huihui katoa ana te pa ki te kuwaha.
and the whole town was gathered at the door.
34 He tokomaha te hunga e ngaua ana e te tini o nga mate i whakaorangia e ia, he maha hoki nga rewera i peia; a kihai i tukua e ia nga rewera kia korero, no te mea i matau ratou ki a ia.
He cured many who were ill with various diseases, and drove out many demons. But he did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who he was.
35 Na i te atatu, i mua noa atu o te awatea, ka ara ia, ka puta ki waho, ka haere ki te wahi koraha, ki reira inoi ai.
In the morning he rose a great while before day and went out to a desert place, and there prayed.
36 Na ka whai a Haimona ratou ko ona hoa i a ia.
And Simon and his companions hunted him up,
37 A, ka kitea ia, ka mea ki a ia, E rapu ana nga tangata katoa i a koe.
and told him, "Every one is looking for you."
38 Katahi ia ka mea ki a ratou, Tatou ka haere he wahi ke ki nga kainga tata, ki reira ahau kauwhau ai: ko taku hoki tera i haere mai ai.
"Let us go away," he answered, "to the neighboring country towns, that I may preach there, too; because for that purpose I came forth."
39 Na ka tomo ia ki roto i o ratou whare karakia puta noa i Kariri, ka kauwhau, ka pei hoki i nga rewera ki waho.
So he went throughout Galilee, preaching in the synagogues and driving out demons.
40 A ka haere mai ki a ia tetahi repera, ka inoi ki a ia, tuku rawa nga turi ki a ia, ka mea, Ki te pai koe, e taea ahau e koe te mea kia ma.
One day a leper cane to him and besought him as he knelt down to him, saying, "If you choose, you are able to cleanse me."
41 Na ka aroha a Ihu, ka totoro tona ringa, ka pa ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, E pai ana ahau; kia ma koe.
Jesus, moved with compassion, put out his hand and touched him, saying, "I do choose, be clean!"
42 A, puaki kau tona reo, kua kore tona repera, na kua ma.
The leprosy at once left him, and he was made clean.
43 Na ka whakatupato ia ki a ia, a tonoa tonutia atu,
Jesus immediately sent him away, charging him sternly and saying.
44 Ka mea atu hoki ki a ia, Kei korerotia tetahi mea ki te tangata: engari haere, kia kite te tohunga i a koe, a mauria atu mo tou whakamakanga nga mea i whakaritea e Mohi, hei mea whakaatu ki a ratou.
"See you say nothing to any one; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your purification what Moses commanded for a testimony to them."
45 Heoi, i tona putanga atu, ka anga ki te kororo nui haere, ka whakapuakina taua mea, a kihai a Ihu i ahei te haere nui ki te pa i muri iho, engari i noho ia i waho i nga wahi koraha: a haere ana mai ratou ki a ia i nga wahi katoa.
But he went out and began to tell every one and to publish it broadcast, so that Jesus could no longer enter any town openly; but he had to remain outside in lonely places, and people kept coming to him from every quarter.
