< Whakakitenga 1 >
1 Ko te whakakitenga a Ihu Karaiti, i homai nei e te Atua ki a ia, kia whakapuakina ki ana pononga nga mea meake nei rite; na whakaaturia mai ana e ia, ara e tana anahera i tonoa mai e ia, ki tana pononga, ki a Hoani:
The reuelacion of Iesus Christe which god gave vnto him for to shewe vnto his servauntes thinges which muste shortly come to passe. And he sent and shewed by his angell vnto his servaunt Ihon
2 Ko ia nei te pono o te kupu a te Atua, o te whakaaturanga hoki a Ihu Karaiti, ara o nga mea katoa i kite ai ia.
which bare recorde of the worde of god and of the testimony of Iesus Christe and of all thinges yt he sawe.
3 Ka hari te tangata e titiro ana i te pukapuka, me te hunga ano hoki e whakarongo ana ki nga kupu o te poropititanga, e pupuri ana hoki i nga mea kua oti te tuhituhi ki reira: kua tata hoki te taima.
Happy is he that redith and they that heare the wordes of the prophesy and kepe thoo thinges which are written therin. For the tyme is at honde.
4 Na Hoani ki nga hahi e whitu i Ahia: Kia tau ki a koutou te aroha noa me te rangimarie, he mea nana e ora nei ia, i mua ano ia, a kei te haere mai ano; he mea hoki na nga Wairua e whitu i mua i tona torona;
Ihon to the. vii. congregacios in Asia. Grace be with you and peace from him which is and which was and which is to come and from the. vii. spretes which are present before his trone
5 He mea ano na Ihu Karaiti, na te kaiwhakaatu pono, ko ia nei te putanga matamua o te hunga mate, te rangatira o nga kingi o te whenua. Ki a ia, i arohaina nei tatou e ia, i horoia ano hoki o tatou hara ki ona toto,
and from Iesus Christ which is a faythfull witnes and fyrst begotte of the deed: and Lorde over the kinges of the erth. Vnto him that loved vs and wesshed vs fro synnes in his awne bloud
6 A meinga ana tatou e ia hei kingi, hei tohunga ki te Atua, ara ki tona Matua; waiho atu ki a ia te kororia me te kaha ake tonu atu. Amine. (aiōn )
and made vs kinges and Prestes vnto God his father be glory and dominion for ever more. Amen. (aiōn )
7 Tenei ia te haere mai nei me nga kapua, e kite hoki i a ia nga kanohi katoa, me te hunga hoki i wero i a ia: ka aue ano hoki nga hapu katoa o te whenua ki a ia. Ae, Amine.
Beholde he commeth with cloudes and all eyes shall se him: and they also which peersed him. And all kinredes of ye erth shall wayle. Even so. Amen.
8 Ko ahau te Arepa, te Omeka, te timatanga, te whakamutunga, e ai ta te Ariki, e ora nei, i mua ano ia, a kei te haere mai ano, ko te Kaha Rawa nei ia.
I am Alpha and Omega the begynninge and the endinge sayth the Lorde almyghty which is and which was and which is to come.
9 Ko ahau tenei, ko Hoani, ko to koutou tuakana, kua uru tahi nei ki te tukinotanga, ki te rangatiratanga ano hoki, ki te manawanui kei roto i a Ihu, i te motu ahau e huaina nei ko Patamo, he mea hoki mo te kupu a te Atua, mo te whakaatu hoki i a I hu.
I Ihon youre brother and companyon in tribulacion and in the kyngdom and pacience which is in Iesu Christe was in the yle of Pathmos for the worde of god and for ye witnessynge of Iesu Christe.
10 I te Wairua ahau i te ra o te Ariki, a ka rongo ahau i te reo nui i muri i ahau, me te mea no te tetere,
I was in the sprete on a sondaye and herde behynde me a gret voyce as it had bene of a trompe
11 E mea ana, Tuhituhia ki te pukapuka tau e kite nei, tukua atu hoki ki nga hahi e whitu i Ahia; ki Epeha, ki hamurana, ki Perekamu, ki Taiataira, ki Harariha, ki Parerepia, ki Raorikia.
sayinge: I am Alpha and Omega the fyrst and the laste. That thou seist write in a boke and sende it vnto the congregacions which are in Asia vnto Ephesus and vnto Smyrna and vnto Pargamos and vnto Thiatira and vnto Sardis and vnto Philadelphia and vnto Laodicia.
12 Na ka tahuri ake ahau kia kite i te reo i korero nei ki ahau. A, i taku tahuritanga ake, ka kite ahau i nga turanga rama koura e whitu;
And I turned backe to se the voyce that spake to me. And when I was turned: I sawe. vii golde candelstyckes
13 A i waenganui o nga turanga rama ko tetahi e rite ana ki te Tama a te tangata, ko tona kakahu tatu noa ki nga waewae, he mea whitiki te uma ki te whitiki koura;
and in the myddes of the cadelstyckes one lyke vnto ye sone of ma clothed with a lynnen garmet doune to the ground and gyrd aboute the pappes with a golden gyrdle
14 A ko tona matenga me nga makawe ma tonu, ano he wuuru ma, he hukarere; ko ona kanohi, ano he mura ahi;
His heed and his heares were whyte as whyte woll and as snowe: and his eyes were as a flame of fyre:
15 A ko ona waewae rite tonu ki te parahi pai, ano e ka ana i roto i te oumu; ko tona reo, ano ko te tangi a nga wai maha.
and his fete lyke vnto brasse as though they brent in a fornace: and his voyce as the sounde of many waters.
16 E whitu hoki nga whetu i tona ringa matau: a i puta mai i tona mangai he hoari matarua, he mea koi: ko tona kanohi, ano kei te ra ina kaha te whiti mai.
And he had in his right honde vii. starres. And out of his mouth wet a sharpe twoo edged swearde. And his face shone eve as the sonne in his strength.
17 A, no toku kitenga i a ia, hinga ana ahau ki ona waewae, ano he tangata kua mate. Na ka whakapangia mai e ia tona ringaringa matau ki ahau, ka mea ki ahau, Kaua e mataku; ko ahau te tuatahi, te whakamutunga:
And when I sawe him I fell at his fete even as deed. And he layde hys ryght honde apon me sayinge vnto me: feare not. I am the fyrst and the laste
18 Ko ahau te Mea Ora; i mate hoki ahau i mua, na, e ora nei a ake tonu atu, kei ahau ano nga ki o te mate raua ko te reinga. (aiōn , Hadēs )
and am alyve and was deed. And beholde I am alyve for ever more and have the kayes of hell and of deeth. (aiōn , Hadēs )
19 Na reira tuhituhia nga mea kua kite nei koe, nga mea onaianei nei, me nga mea e puta mai a muri ake nei;
wryte therfore the thynges which thou haste sene and the thynges which are and the thynges which shalbe fulfylled hereafter:
20 Ko te mea ngaro, ko nga whetu e whitu i kite nei koe i toku matau, me nga turanga rama koura e whitu. Ko nga whetu e whitu, ko nga anahera o nga hahi e whitu: ko nga turanga rama e whitu, ko nga hahi e whitu.
and ye mystery of the vii. starres which thou sawest in my ryght honde and the vii. golden candelstyckes. The vii. stares are the messengers of the vii. congregacios: And the vii. candlestyckes which thou sawest are the vii. congregacions.
