¹After these things the LORD appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.

¹¶ Na i muri i enei mea ka whakaritea e te Ariki etahi atu e whitu tekau, a tonoa ana ratou takirua, takirua, i mua i a ia ki nga pa katoa, ki nga wahi meake nei ia haere ki reira.

²Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.

²I mea ano ia ki ratou, He nui te kotinga, ko nga kaimahi ia he ruarua: na inoi atu ki te Ariki nana te kotinga, kia tonoa e ia he kaimahi ki tana kotinga.

³Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.

³Haere: nana, ka tonoa nei koutou e ahau, ano he reme ki waenganui o nga wuruhi.

⁴Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.

⁴Kaua e mauria he takotoranga moni, kaua he putea, kaua he hu: kaua ano e oha atu ki tetahi ai te huarahi.

⁵And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.

⁵Ki te tomo koutou ki tetahi whare, matua mea atu, Kia tau te rangimarie ki tenei whare.

⁶And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.

⁶A ki te mea kei reira te tama a te rangimarie, ka tau ta koutou rangimarie ki a ia: ki te kahore, e hoki ano ki a koutou.

⁷And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.

⁷Na hei taua whare koutou noho ai, kai ai, inu ai i ta ratou e homai ai: ka tika hoki te utu mo te kaimahi. Kaua e haereere i tenei whare ki tera whare.

⁸And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:

⁸Ka tomo koutou ki tetahi pa, a ka manako ratou ki a koutou, kainga nga mea e whakatakotoria ana ma koutou:

⁹And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

⁹Me whakaora te hunga mate o reira, ka mea ki a ratou, Kua tata ki a koutou te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

¹⁰But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,

¹⁰Tena ki te tomo koutou ki tetahi pa, a e kore ratou e manako ki a koutou, me haere atu ki nga huarahi o reira, me ki atu,

¹¹Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

¹¹Na, ko te puehu o to koutou pa e piri nei ki a matou, tenei ka tahia atu nei e matou ki a koutou: otira kia mohio koutou ki tenei, kua tata ki a koutou te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

¹²But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.

¹²Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Engari to Horoma i taua ra e mama i to taua pa.

¹³Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

¹³Aue, te mate mou, e Korahina! aue, te mate mou, e Petahaira! me i meatia hoki ki Taira, ki Hairona nga merekara kua meatia nei ki a korua, kua ripeneta ke raua, he taratara hoki te kakahu, me te noho i roto i te pungarehu.

¹⁴But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.

¹⁴Otira erangi to Taira, to Hairona i te whakawa e mama i to korua.

¹⁵And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.

¹⁵A ko koe, e Kaperenauma, tera koe e ikeike, a tae noa ki te rangi? Ka whakataka koe ki te reinga.

¹⁶He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.

¹⁶Ki te whakarongo tetahi ki a koutou, e whakarongo ana ia ki ahau; ki te whakakahore tetahi ki a koutou, e whakakahore ana ia ki ahau; ki te whakakahore ana ia ki ahau; ki te whakakahore tetahi ki ahau, e whakakahore ana ki toku kaitono mai.

¹⁷And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.

¹⁷¶ Na hoki hari ana te whitu tekau, ka mea, E te Ariki, rongo tonu nga rewera nei ki a matou, he mea na tou ingoa.

¹⁸And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

¹⁸Ka mea ia ki a ratou, I kite ahau i a Hatana, me te mea he uira te takanga i te rangi.

¹⁹Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

¹⁹Na ka hoatu nei e ahau ki a koutou he mana e takahi ai koutou i runga i nga nakahi, i nga kopiona, i te kaha katoa ano o te hoa whawhai: a e kore rawa koutou e mate i tetahi mea.

²⁰Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

²⁰Otira kaua e hari ki tenei, ki nga wairua ka riro nei ki raro i a koutou; ko ta koutou ia e tino hari ai, ko o koutou ingoa kua oti te tuhituhi ki te rangi.

²¹In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

²¹I taua wa ano ka hari ia i te Wairua Tapu, ka mea, ka whakawhetai ahau ki a koe, e Pa, e te Ariki o te rangi, o te whenua, kua huna nei hoki e koe enei mea i te hunga matau, i te hunga mahara, a whakakitea ana ki nga kohungahunga: ae ra, e pa, i pai hoki te penei ki tau titiro.

²²All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.

²²Kua oti nga mea katoa te tuku ki ahau e toku matua: e kore ano tetahi e matau ki te Tama ko wai ia, ko te Matua anake; ko wai ranei te Matua, ko te Tama anake, me te tangata ano hoki e pai ai te Tama kia whakakitea ia.

²³And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

²³Na ka tahuri ia ki nga akonga, ka mea puku atu, Ka hari nga kanohi e kite ana i nga mea e kite nei koutou:

²⁴For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

²⁴Ko taku kupu hoki tenei ki a koutou, he tokomaha nga poropiti me nga kingi i hiahia kia kite i nga mea e kite nei koutou, a kahore i kite; kia rongo ano i nga mea e rongo nei koutou, a kahore i rongo.

²⁵And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁵¶ Na ka whakatika tetahi kaiwhakaako o te ture, ka whakamatautau i a ia, ka mea, E te kaiwhakaako, me aha ahau ka whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu?

²⁶He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁶Ka mea ia ki a ia, he aha te mea i tuhituhia ki te ture? ka pehea tau korero?

²⁷And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁷na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea, Kia whakapaua tou ngakau, tou wairua, tou kaha, tou hinengaro, ki te aroha ki te Ariki, ki tou Atua; me aroha hoki ki tou hoa tata ano ko koe.

²⁸And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁸Ka mea ia ki a ia, Ka tika tau korero: meinga tenei, a ka ora koe.

²⁹But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

²⁹Otira ka mea ia ki te whakatika i a ia, ka ki atu ki a Ihu, Ko wai ra toku hoa tata?

³⁰And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³⁰Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea, E haere iho ana tetahi tangata i Hiruharama ki heriko, a ka tutaki ki nga kaipahua, na ka huia ona e ratou, ka tukitukia ia, a haere ana, whakarerea iho ia, me te mea kua mate.

³¹And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³¹Na, ko tetahi tohunga e haere noa ana i taua ara: a, i tona kitenga i a ia, ninihi ke ana na tahaki.

³²And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

³²I pena hoki tetahi Riwaiti, tae kau ki taua wahi, ka haere, ka titiro, ninihi ke ana na tahaki.

³³But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

³³Otira ko tetahi hamari e haere ana ki nga whenua, i te taenga ki a ia, ka kite i a ia, ka aroha,

³⁴And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁴Na ka haere, ka takai i ona patunga, ringihia iho ki te hinu, ki te waina, ka whakanoho i a ia ki tona ake kararehe, a kawea ana ia ki te whare tira, atawhaitia ana ia.

³⁵And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

³⁵I te aonga ake, i tona haerenga, ka tangohia e ia e rua nga pene, hoatu ana ki te tangata i te whare, ka mea ki a ia, Mau ia e tiaki; a ki te maha atu au mea e pau, maku koe e utu ina hoki mai ahau.

³⁶Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?

³⁶Na, ki tou whakaaro, ko wai o tenei tokotoru te hoa ona i tutaki nei ki nga kaipahua?

³⁷And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁷Ka mea ia, Ko tera i atawhaitia ai ia. Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Haere, kia pera ano tau mahi.

³⁸Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁸¶ A i to ratou haerenga atu, ka tomo ia ki tetahi kainga: na, ko tetahi wahine ko Mata te ingoa, i whakamanuhiri i a ia ki tona whare.

³⁹And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.

³⁹He teina ano tona, ko Meri te ingoa, na ka noho tenei ki nga waewae o Ihu, whakarongo ai ki tana kupu.

⁴⁰But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.

⁴⁰Na raruraru noa iho a Mata i te nui o te mahi tuari, a haere ana, ka mea, E te Ariki, he mea noa oti ki a koe kia waiho e toku teina maku anake te tuari? na, korero atu kia haere mai ia hei hoa moku.

⁴¹And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:

⁴¹Ka whakahoki te Ariki, ka mea ki a ia, E Mata, e Mata, e manukanuka ana koe, e raruraru ana ki nga mea maha:

⁴²But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

⁴²Kotahi ia te mea e matea ana: a kua whiriwhiria e Meri tena wahi pai, e kore nei e tangohia i a ia.
