Maka 1
1 Ko te timatanga o te rongopai o Ihu Karaiti, o te Tama a te Atua;
The 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.
As it is written in the Prophets, “Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of yoʋ, who will prepare yoʋr way before yoʋ,
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 out in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way 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.
John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching 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.
The whole Judean countryside was going out to him, and so were the people of Jerusalem. They were all being 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.
Now John was clothed with camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist; he ate locusts and wild honey.
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 proclaimed, “After me comes one who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
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 with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9 A i aua ra ka haere mai a Ihu i Nahareta o Kariri, ka iriiria e Hoani ki Horano.
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in 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:
Immediately as he was coming up from the water, he saw the heavens being split apart and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11 A ka puta mai he reo no te rangi, e mea ana, Ko koe taku Tama i aroha ai, taku i ahuareka ai.
Then a voice came from heaven: “Yoʋ are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12 A i reira pu ano ka tonoa ia e te Wairua ki te koraha.
Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness,
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 was there in the wilderness for forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered 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 John was put in prison, Jesus went to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God
15 Ka mea, Kua rite tenei te wa, kua tata hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua: ripeneta, whakaponohia te rongopai.
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in 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.
As Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother (that is, Simon's brother) casting a net in 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.
Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
18 A mahue tonu ake i a raua nga kupenga, aru ana i a ia.
So they immediately 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.
Going on a little farther from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother as they were in the boat mending their 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.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.
21 A ka tomo ratou ki Kaperenauma; na haere tonu ia i te hapati ki te whare karakia, ka whakaako.
They went to Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and began teaching.
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.
The people were astonished at his teaching, because he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Na i to ratou whare karakia tetahi tangata, he wairua poke tona; a ka karanga ia,
Now in their synagogue there was a man possessed by an unclean spirit. He cried 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.
“Leave us alone! What do yoʋ have to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have yoʋ come to destroy us? I know who yoʋ 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 silent, and 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 convulsed the man and came out of him, crying out with a loud voice.
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.
All the people were amazed so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? What new teaching is this that with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him?”
28 Na paku tonu atu tona rongo ki nga wahi katoa e tata ana ki Kariri.
And the news about him immediately spread throughout all the surrounding region 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.
After leaving the synagogue, they immediately went to the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
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 with a fever, and they immediately told Jesus 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 went over to her and raised her up, taking hold of her hand. Immediately the fever left her, and she began to serve 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.
When evening came, after the sun had set, they brought to Jesus all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons.
33 A huihui katoa ana te pa ki te kuwaha.
The whole city was gathered together 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.
and he healed many who were sick with various diseases. He also cast out many demons, but he would 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.
Early the next morning, while it was still very dark, Jesus rose and departed. He went off to a desolate place and prayed there.
36 Na ka whai a Haimona ratou ko ona hoa i a ia.
Simon and his companions searched diligently for him,
37 A, ka kitea ia, ka mea ki a ia, E rapu ana nga tangata katoa i a koe.
and when they found him, they said to him, “Everyone is looking for yoʋ.”
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.
Jesus said to them, “Let us go into the neighboring towns so that I may preach there also, for that is why I have come.”
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 was preaching in their synagogues in all of Galilee and casting 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.
Then a leper came up and knelt before him, begging him, “If yoʋ are willing, yoʋ can make me clean.”
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.
Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out his hand, touched the man, and said to him, “I am willing; be made clean.”
42 A, puaki kau tona reo, kua kore tona repera, na kua ma.
When he said this, the leprosy immediately departed from the man, and he was made clean.
43 Na ka whakatupato ia ki a ia, a tonoa tonutia atu,
Then Jesus sternly warned him and immediately sent him away,
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.
saying to him, “Be sure not to say anything to anyone, but go show yoʋrself to the priest and offer for yoʋr cleansing what Moses commanded, as 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 the man went out and began to proclaim it widely and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places. Yet people were coming to him from everywhere.
