Ka Whakaako a Īhu mō te Whakarerenga
(Matiu 19.1-12; Ruka 16.18)
1 Nā, ka whakatika ia i reira, haere ana ki ngā wāhi o Hūria ki tērā taha o Horano. Nā, ka huihui mai anō ngā mano ki a ia; ka whakaako anō ia i a rātou, ko tāna tikanga hoki tērā.
2 Nā, ka haere mai ngā Parihi, ka ui ki a ia, “He mea tika rānei kia whakarere te tangata i tāna wahine?” He whakamātautau hoki mōna.
3 Nā, ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a rātou, “He aha tā Mohi i mea ai ki a koutou?”
4 Ka kī rātou, “I tukua e Mohi kia tuhituhia he pukapuka whakarere, ka whakarere ai.”
5 Nā, ka whakahoki a Īhu, ka mea ki a rātou, “Nā te pakeke o ō koutou ngākau i tuhituhia ai e ia tēnei kupu ako ki a koutou. 6 I te orokohanganga ia, ‘I hangā rāua e te Atua he tāne, he wahine.’ 7 ‘Mō konei ka mahue i te tangata tōna pāpā me tōna whaea, ka piri ki tāna wahine; 8 hei kikokiko kotahi hoki rāua tokorua.’ Nā, heoi anō tō rāua tokoruatanga, engari, kotahi anō kikokiko. 9 Nā, ko ā te Atua i hono ai, kaua e wehea e te tangata.”
10 Ā, i te whare ka ui anō āna ākonga ki a ia ki taua mea. 11 Ka mea ia ki a rātou, “Ki te whakarere tētahi i tāna wahine, ā, ka mārena i tētahi atu, e pūremu ana ia, e hara ana ki tērā. 12 Ki te whakarere hoki te wahine i tāna tāne, ā, ka mārenatia ki tētahi atu, e pūremu ana ia.”
Ka Manaakitia e Īhu ngā Tamariki Nonohi
(Matiu 19.13-15; Ruka 18.15-17)
13 Nā, ka kawea mai ki a ia ētahi tamariki nonohi, kia pā ai ia ki a rātou; otirā, ka rīria e ngā ākonga te hunga nāna i kawe mai. 14 Nō te kitenga ia o Īhu, ka riri, ka mea ki a rātou, “Tukua ngā tamariki nonohi kia haere mai ki ahau, kaua hoki rātou e āraia atu; nō ngā pēnei hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua. 15 He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, ki te kāhore e rite te tango a tētahi i te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki tā te tamaiti nohinohi, e kore ia e tomo ki roto.” 16 Nā, okookona ana rātou e ia, whakapākia iho ōna ringa ki a rātou, manaakitia ana rātou.
Te Tangata Whai Taonga
(Matiu 19.16-30; Ruka 18.18-30)
17 Nā, i a ia e haere ana i te huarahi, ka oma mai tētahi, ka tuku iho i ngā turi ki a ia, ka ui, “E te Kaiwhakaako pai, me aha ahau ka whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu?”
18 Nā, ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, “He aha ahau i kīia ai e koe he pai? Kāhore tētahi i pai, kotahi anake, ko te Atua. 19 E mātau ana koe ki ngā ture, ‘Kaua e pūremu. Kaua e patu tangata. Kaua e tāhae. Kaua e whakapae teka. Kaua e kaiā. Whakahōnoretia tōu pāpā me tōu whaea.’ ”
20 Nā, ka whakahoki tērā, ka mea ki a ia, “E te Kaiwhakaako, kua rite katoa ēnei mea i ahau nō tōku tamarikitanga ake.”
21 Nā, ka titiro a Īhu ki a ia, ka aroha ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, “Kotahi te mea kāhore nei i a koe: haere, hokona āu mea, ka hoatu ki ngā rawakore, ā, e whai taonga koe ki te rangi. Kātahi ka haere mai, ka aru i ahau.” 22 Otirā, ka tuku tōna mata i taua kupu, ā, haere pōuri atu ana; he maha hoki ōna taonga.
23 Nā, ka tirotiro a Īhu, ka mea ki āna ākonga, “Anō te whakauaua o te tapoko o te hunga taonga ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua!”
24 Nā, ka mīharo ngā ākonga ki āna kupu. Otirā, ka whakahoki anō a Īhu, ka mea ki a rātou, “E tama mā, anō te whakauaua o te tapoko ki tō te Atua rangatiratanga o te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki ngā taonga! 25 Erangi, te haere o te kāmera rā te kōwhao o te ngira he mea takoto noa, he whakauaua rawa ia te haere o te tangata taonga ki roto ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.”
26 Nā, rahi rawa tō rātou mīharo, ka mea ki a rātou anō, “Ko wai rā e ora?”
27 Nā, ka titiro a Īhu ki a rātou, ka mea, “E kore tēnei e taea e te tangata, ki te Atua ia ka taea; e taea hoki ngā mea katoa e te Atua.”
28 Kātahi, ka anga a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, “Nā, kua mahue nei i a mātou ngā mea katoa, kua aru nei i a koe.”
29 Nā, ka whakahoki a Īhu, ka mea, “He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, ki te whakarērea e tētahi tangata, he whare, he tēina, he tuāhine, he whaea, he pāpā, he tamariki, he māra, he whakaaro nōna ki ahau, ki te rongopai hoki, 30 inā, tātakirau ngā mea e riro i a ia, i tēnei wā, he whare, he tēina, he tuāhine, he whaea, he tamariki, he māra, me te whakatoi; ā, i te ao meāke puta, he ora tonu. 31 He tokomaha ia ō mua e waiho ki muri; ko ō muri hoki ki mua.”
Ngā Kōrerotanga a Īhu mō Tōna Matenga
(Matiu 20.17-19; Ruka 18.31-34)
32 Nā, i te huarahi rātou e haere ana ki Hiruhārama; me te haere anō a Īhu i mua i a rātou: nā, e mīharo ana rātou; e aru mataku ana. Heoi, ka mau anō ia i te tekau mā rua, ka anga, ka kōrero ki a rātou i ngā mea meāke pā ki a ia. 33 “Nanā, e haere ana tēnei tātou ki Hiruhārama; ā, ka tukua te Tama a te tangata ki ngā tohunga nui, ki ngā karaipi; ka kīia e rātou kia mate, ka tuku hoki rātou i a ia ki ngā tauiwi; 34 ka tāwaia ia, ka tuwhaina, ka whiua, ka whakamatea, ā, i te toru o ngā rā, ka ara.”
Te Īnoi a Hēmi rāua ko Hoani
(Matiu 20.20-28)
35 Nā, ka whakatata mai ki a ia a Hēmi rāua ko Hoani, ngā tama a Heperi, ka mea, “E te Kaiwhakaako, e hiahia ana māua kia meatia e koe tā māua e īnoi ai.”
36 Nā, ka mea ia ki a rāua, “He aha tā kōrua e hiahia ai kia meatia e ahau mā kōrua?”
37 Ka mea rāua ki a ia, “Tukua ki a māua kia noho, tētahi ki tōu matau, tētahi ki tōu mauī, i tōu korōria.”
38 Nā, ko te meatanga a Īhu ki a rāua, “Kāhore kōrua e mātau ki tā kōrua e īnoi nei; e āhei rānei kōrua te inu i te kapu ka inumia nei e ahau? Kia iriiria ki te iriiringa ka iriiria nei ahau?”
39 Ka mea rāua ki a ia, “E āhei anō.”
Ka kī atu a Īhu ki a rāua, “E inu anō kōrua i te kapu ka inumia e ahau; e iriiria kōrua ki te iriiringa e iriiria ai ahau. 40 Tēnā, ko te noho ki tōku matau, ki tōku mauī rānei, ehara i te mea māku e hoatu, engari, ka riro i te hunga i whakaritea nei mō rātou.”
41 Ā, nō te rongonga o te tekau, ka anga ka riri ki a Hēmi rāua ko Hoani. 42 Nā, karangatia ana rātou e Īhu ki a ia, ka mea ki a rātou, “E mahara ana koutou, ko te hunga e kīia ana he kāwana nō ngā tauiwi hei whakatupu rangatira ki a rātou; ko ō rātou tāngata rarahi hoki hei akiaki i a rātou. 43 Otirā, e kore e pērā i roto i a koutou; engari, ki te mea tētahi kia whakatupu tangata rahi i roto i a koutou, me whakatupu kaimahi ia mā koutou. 44 Ki te mea hoki tētahi o koutou kia whakatupu tino tangata, me whakatupu pononga ia mā te katoa. 45 Kīhai nei hoki te Tama a te tangata i haere mai kia mahia he mea māna, engari, kia mahi ia, kia tuku hoki i a ia kia mate hei utu mō ngā tāngata tokomaha.”
Ka Whakaorangia e Īhu a Paratimiuha he Matapō
(Matiu 20.29-34; Ruka 18.35-43)
46 Nā, ka tae rātou ki Heriko. Ā, i a ia e haere atu ana i roto i Heriko, rātou ko āna ākonga me te mano tini, e noho ana a Paratimiuha, tama a Timiuha, he matapō, i te taha o te ara, ki te tono mea māna. 47 Ā, i tōna rongonga ko Īhu o Nahareta tēnā, ka anga ia, ka karanga, ka mea, “E Īhu, e te Tama a Rāwiri, kia aroha ki ahau.”
48 Ā, he tokomaha ki te riri i a ia kia noho puku, heoi, tino rahi ake tāna karanga, “E te Tama a Rāwiri, kia aroha ki ahau.”
49 Nā, ka tū a Īhu, ka mea kia karangatia ia.
Ā, karangatia ana e rātou te matapō, ka mea ki a ia, “Kia māia, whakatika; e karanga ana ia ki a koe.” 50 Nā, ka whakarērea e ia tōna kākahu, ā, whakatika ana, haere ana ki a Īhu.
51 Nā, ka oho a Īhu, ka mea ki a ia, “He aha tāu e hiahia nā kia meatia e ahau māu?”
Ka kī te matapō ki a ia, “E te Ariki, kia titiro ahau.”
52 Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, “Haere; nā tōu whakapono koe i ora ai.” Nā, titiro tonu iho ia, aru ana i a Īhu i te ara.
