Matiu 9
1 Na ka eke ia ki te kaipuke, ka whiti ki tawahi, ka haere ki tona pa.
He entered into a boat and crossed over, and came into his own city.
2 Na ka kawea mai e ratou ki a ia tetahi pararutiki, e takoto ana i runga i te moenga; no te kitenga o Ihu i to ratou whakapono ka mea ia ki te pararutiki, E tama, kia maia; ka oti ou hara te muru.
Behold, they brought to him a man who was paralysed, lying on a bed. Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Son, cheer up! Your sins are forgiven you.”
3 Na ka mea etahi o nga karaipi ki a ratou ano, E kohukohu ana tenei tangata.
Behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man blasphemes.”
4 A, ka kite a Ihu i o ratou whakaaro, ka mea ia, He aha i kino ai nga whakaaro o roto o o koutou ngakau?
Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?
5 Ko tehea oti te mea takoto noa, ko te mea, Ka oti ou hara te muru; ko te mea ranei, Whakatika, haere?
For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven;’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’?
6 Otira kia matau ai koutou he mana muru hara to te Tama a te tangata i runga i te whenua, katahi ia ka mea runga i te whenua, katahi ia ka mea ki te pararutiki, Whakatika, tangohia ake tou moenga, a haere ki tou whare.
But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins—” (then he said to the paralytic), “Get up, and take up your mat, and go to your house.”
7 Na whakatika ana ia, haere ana ki tona whare.
He arose and departed to his house.
8 No te kitenga ia o te hui, ka wehi, ka whakakororia i te Atua, i homai ai tenei mana ki nga tangata.
But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
9 A, i a Ihu e haere ana i reira, ka kite ia i tetahi tangata, ko Matiu te ingoa, e noho ana i te wahi tango takoha; a ka mea ki a ia, Arumia ahau. Na whakatika ana ia, aru ana i a ia.
As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office. He said to him, “Follow me.” He got up and followed him.
10 A, i a ia e noho ana ki te kai i roto i te whare, na he tokomaha nga pupirikana me nga tangata hara i haere mai, i noho tahi ki a Ihu ratou ko ana akonga.
As he sat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.
11 A, no te kitenga o nga Parihi, ka mea ki ana akonga, He aha to koutou Kaiwhakaako ka kai tahi ai me nga pupirikana, me nga tangata hara?
When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
12 Otira ka rongo a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kahore he aha o nga tangata ora e meatia ai e te rata, engari o te hunga e mate ana.
When Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.
13 Na haere, akona te tikanga o tenei, Ko taku e pai ai ko te tohu tangata, haunga te patunga tapu: kihai hoki ahau i haere mai ki te karanga i te hunga tika, engari i te hunga hara, kia ripeneta.
But you go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
14 Me i reira ka haere mai ki a ia nga akonga a Hoani, ka mea, He aha i maha ai o matou ko nga Parihi nohoanga pukutanga a kahore au akonga e nohopuku?
Then John’s disciples came to him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don’t fast?”
15 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, E ahei ranei nga tamariki o te whare marena te tangi, i te mea kei a ratou te tane marena hou? Na, tera e tae mai nga ra, e tangohia ai te tane marena hou i a ratou, a ko reira nohopuku ai ratou.
Jesus said to them, “Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
16 E kore e meatia e te tangata tetahi wahi o te kahu hou hei papaki mo te kahu tawhito, no te mea ka riro tetahi wahi o taua kakahu i te whakakapi, a ka nui rawa te pakaru.
No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch would tear away from the garment, and a worse hole is made.
17 E kore e ringihia te waina hou ki nga ipu tawhito: kei pakaru nga ipu, a ka maringi te waina, kore ake nga ipu: erangi e ringihia ana te waina hou ki nga ipu hou, a ka ora taua rua.
Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine be spilled, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.”
18 I a ia e korero ana i enei mea ki a ratou, na ka haere mai tetahi rangatira, ka koropiko ki a ia, ka mea, Tenei kua marere taku tamahine: otira mau e haere ake, e whakapa tou ringa ki a ia, a ka ora.
While he told these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshipped him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”
19 Na ka whakatika a Ihu ratou ko ana akonga, a aru ana i a ia.
Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.
20 Na ko te haerenga ki muri i a ia o tetahi wahine, tekau ma rua nga tau i mate ai i te pakaruhanga toto, a ka pa ki te taniko o tona kakahu:
Behold, a woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment;
21 I mea hoki i roto i a ia, Kia pa kau oti ahau ki tona kakahu, ka ora ahau.
for she said within herself, “If I just touch his garment, I will be made well.”
22 Na ka tahuri a Ihu, a ka kite i a ia, ka mea, Kia maia, e ko; na tou whakapono koe i ora ai. A ora ake te wahine i taua wa ano.
But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, “Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
23 Na, i te taenga o Ihu ki te whare o te rangatira, ka kite i nga kaiwhakatangi putorino, i te huihui hoki e ngangau ana,
When Jesus came into the ruler’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd in noisy disorder,
24 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Whakaatea: kahore hoki i mate te kotiro, erangi e moe ana. A kataina iho ia e ratou.
he said to them, “Make room, because the girl isn’t dead, but sleeping.” They were ridiculing him.
25 Heoi, ka oti te huihui te pei ki waho, ka tomo ia ki roto, ka mau ki tona ringa, a ara ake ana te kotiro.
But when the crowd was sent out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.
26 A paku ana tenei rongo puta noa i taua whenua.
The report of this went out into all that land.
27 A, i a Ihu e haere atu ana i reira, tokorua nga matapo i aru i a ia, ka karanga ake, ka mea, E te Tama a Rawiri, kia aroha ki a maua.
As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!”
28 A, ka tapoko ia ki te whare, ka haere atu nga matapo ki a ia: na ka mea a Ihu ki a raua, E whakapono ana ranei korua e taea tenei e ahau? Ka mea raua ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki.
When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They told him, “Yes, Lord.”
29 Me i reira ka pa ia ki o raua kanohi, ka mea, Kia rite ki to korua whakapono te meatanga ki a korua.
Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.”
30 Na kua kite o raua kanohi; katahi ka whakatupato a Ihu i a raua, ka mea, Kia mahara kei rangona e te tangata.
Then their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, “See that no one knows about this.”
31 Ko raua ia i puta atu ki waho, a korerotia nuitia ana ia puta noa i taua whenua.
But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.
32 I a raua e puta ana ki waho, ka kawea mai ki a ia tetahi tangata wahangu, he rewera tona.
As they went out, behold, a mute man who was demon possessed was brought to him.
33 A, ka oti te rewera te pei, ka whai reo te wahangu; a miharo ana te mano, ka mea, Kahore ano i kitea te penei i roto i a Iharaira.
When the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. The multitudes marvelled, saying, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”
34 Otira ka mea nga Parihi, Na te rangatira o nga rewera tana peinga rewera.
But the Pharisees said, “By the prince of the demons, he casts out demons.”
35 Na ka haereerea e Ihu nga pa katoa me nga kainga, a ka ako i roto i o ratou whare karakia, ka kauwhau i te rongopai o te rangatiratanga, me te whakaora i te tini o nga mate, i te tini o nga turorotanga o te iwi.
Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness amongst the people.
36 A, no tona kitenga i nga mano, ka toko ake tona ngakau aroha ki a ratou, e mauiui ana hoki ratou, e marara ke ana, me he hipi heparakore.
But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them because they were harassed and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd.
37 Katahi ia ka mea ki ana akonga, He nui te kotinga, ko nga kaimahi ia he ruarua;
Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the labourers are few.
38 Na inoi atu ki te Ariki nana te kotinga, kia tonoa e ia he kaimahi ki tana kotinga.
Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out labourers into his harvest.”
