¹And when they come nigh to Jerusalem, to Bethphage, and Bethany, unto the mount of the Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,

¹¶ A, no ka tata ratou ki Hiruharama, ki Petapaki, ki Petani, a ka tae ki Maunga Oriwa, tokorua ana akonga i tonoa e ia,

²and saith to them, `Go away to the village that is over-against you, and immediately, entering into it, ye shall find a colt tied, on which no one of men hath sat, having loosed it, bring [it]:

²A i mea ia ki a raua, Haere ki te kainga e anga mai ana ki a korua: e tomo kau ki reira, ka kite korua i tetahi kuao e here ana, kahore ano kia nohoia e te tangata; wetekina, arahina mai.

³and if any one may say to you, Why do ye this? say ye that the lord hath need of it, and immediately he will send it hither.`

³A ki te ki mai tetahi tangata ki a korua, He aha tenei ka meinga ai e korua? ka mea atu, E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mana: na ka tukua tonutia mai ki konei.

⁴And they went away, and found the colt tied at the door without, by the two ways, and they loose it,

⁴Na haere ana raua, ka kite i te kuao e here ana ki te kuwaha i waho i te ara; a wetekina ana e raua.

⁵and certain of those standing there said to them, `What do ye — loosing the colt?`

⁵A ka mea etahi o te hunga e tu ana i reira ki a raua, he aha ta korua e wewete na i te kuao?

⁶and they said to them as Jesus commanded, and they suffered them.

⁶Na ka korerotia e raua ki a ratou ta Ihu i mea ai: a tukua ana raua e ratou.

⁷And they brought the colt unto Jesus, and did cast upon it their garments, and he sat upon it,

⁷Ka arahina te kuao ki a Ihu, na wharikitia ana o raua kakahu ki runga ki a ia; a noho ana ia i runga.

⁸and many did spread their garments in the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way.

⁸Na he tokomaha i whariki i o ratou kakahu ki te ara: ko etahi i kokoti i nga manga o nga rakau, wharikitia ana ki te ara.

⁹And those going before and those following were crying out, saying, `Hosanna! blessed [is] he who is coming in the name of the Lord;

⁹Ko te hunga i haere i mua, me te hunga i haere i muri, i karanga, i mea, Ohana: Ka whakapaingia ia e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki:

¹⁰blessed is the coming reign, in the name of the Lord, of our father David; Hosanna in the highest.`

¹⁰Ka whakapaingia te rangatiratanga e haere mai ana, te rangatiratanga o to tatou matua o Rawiri: Ohana i runga rawa.

¹¹And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple, and having looked round on all things, it being now evening, he went forth to Bethany with the twelve.

¹¹Na ka tomo a Ihu ki Hiruharama, ki roto hoki ki te temepara: a, ka mutu tana tirotiro i nga mea katoa, ko te wa hoki o te ahiahi, ka haere ratou ko te tekau ma rua ki Petani.

¹²And on the morrow, they having come forth from Bethany, he hungered,

¹²¶ Na, i te aonga ake, i a ratou kua puta i Petani, ka hiakai ia:

¹³and having seen a fig-tree afar off having leaves, he came, if perhaps he shall find anything in it, and having come to it, he found nothing except leaves, for it was not a time of figs,

¹³A, i tona kitenga i tetahi piki i tawhiti, he rau ona, ka haere ia, me kore e kitea tetahi mea i runga: a, no tona taenga, kihai i kitea e ia tetahi mea, he rau anake: ehara hoki i te wa o te piki.

¹⁴and Jesus answering said to it, `No more from thee — to the age — may any eat fruit;` and his disciples were hearing.

¹⁴Na ka oho a Ihu, ka mea ki taua rakau, Kaua rawa te tangata e kai i tetahi hua ou ake tonu atu; me te whakarongo ano ana akonga.

¹⁵And they come to Jerusalem, and Jesus having gone into the temple, began to cast forth those selling and buying in the temple, and the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those selling the doves, he overthrew,

¹⁵A ka tae ratou ki Hiruharama: na ka tomo a Ihu ki te temepara, ka anga ki te pei ki waho i te hunga e hoko atu ana, e hoko mai ana i roto i te temepara, a whakatahuritia ake nga tepu o nga kaiwhakawhitiwhiti moni, me nga nohoanga o nga kaihoko k ukupa;

¹⁶and he did not suffer that any might bear a vessel through the temple,

¹⁶A kihai i tukua e ia kia mauria tetahi oko e te tangata ra te temepara.

¹⁷and he was teaching, saying to them, `Hath it not been written — My house a house of prayer shall be called for all the nations, and ye did make it a den of robbers?`

¹⁷A i whakaako ia, i mea ki a ratou, Kahore koia i tuhituhia, Ka kiia toku whare he whare inoi mo nga tauiwi katoa? otiia kua meinga nei e koutou hei ana mo nga kaipahua.

¹⁸And the scribes and the chief priests heard, and they were seeking how they shall destroy him, for they were afraid of him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching;

¹⁸I rongo hoki nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi, a ka rapu ki te pehea e whakangaromia ai ia: i mataku hoki ratou i a ia, no te mea i miharo te mano katoa ki tana ako.

¹⁹and when evening came, he was going forth without the city.

¹⁹A i nga ahiahi ka haere ia ki waho o te pa.

²⁰And in the morning, passing by, they saw the fig-tree having been dried up from the roots,

²⁰A, i te ata i a ratou e haere ana, ka kite i te piki, kua maroke ake i nga pakiaka.

²¹and Peter having remembered saith to him, `Rabbi, lo, the fig-tree that thou didst curse is dried up.`

²¹Na ka mahara a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, na, te piki i kanga ra e koe, kua maroke.

²²And Jesus answering saith to them, `Have faith of God;

²²Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kia mau te whakapono ki te Atua.

²³for verily I say to you, that whoever may say to this mount, Be taken up, and be cast into the sea, and may not doubt in his heart, but may believe that the things that he saith do come to pass, it shall be to him whatever he may say.

²³He pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te mea tetahi ki tenei maunga, Kia ranga atu koe, kia whakataka ki te moana: e kore hoki e ruarua tona ngakau, engari ka whakapono ia tera e puta mai nga mea i kiia e ia; ka whiwhi ia ki tana i mea ai.

²⁴Because of this I say to you, all whatever — praying — ye do ask, believe that ye receive, and it shall be to you.

²⁴Koia ahau ka mea nei ki a koutou, Ko nga mea katoa e tono ai koutou ina inoi, me whakapono ka riro mai i a koutou, a ka whiwhi koutou.

²⁵`And whenever ye may stand praying, forgive, if ye have anything against any one, that your Father also who is in the heavens may forgive you your trespasses;

²⁵A, ka tu koutou, ka karakia, ki te mea he take riri ta koutou ki tetahi, murua: kia murua ai hoki o koutou he e to koutou Matua i te rangi.

²⁶and, if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in the heavens forgive your trespasses.`

²⁶Na ki te kore koutou e muru, e kore ano to koutou Matua i te rangi e muru i o koutou he.

²⁷And they come again to Jerusalem, and in the temple, as he is walking, there come unto him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,

²⁷¶ Na ka tae ano ratou ki Hiruharama: a, i a ia e haereere ana i te temepara, ka haere mai ki a ia nga tohunga nui, me nga karaipi, me nga kaumatua:

²⁸and they say to him, `By what authority dost thou these things? and who gave thee this authority that these things thou mayest do?`

²⁸Ka mea ki a ia, Tena, te mana i meatia ai enei mea e koe? na wai hoki tenei mana i hoatu ki a koe, i mea ai koe i enei mea?

²⁹And Jesus answering said to them, `I will question you — I also — one word; and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things;

²⁹Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Maku hoki e ui ki a koutou kia kotahi kupu, ma koutou e whakahoki mai ki ahau, katahi ka korerotia e ahau ki a koutou te mana i mea ai ahau i enei mea.

³⁰the baptism of John — from heaven was it? or from men? answer me.`

³⁰Ko te iriiringa a Hoani, no te rangi, no te tangata ranei? korerotia mai ki ahau.

³¹And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, `If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?

³¹A ka korerorero ratou ki a ratou ano, ka mea, Ki te mea tatou, No te rangi; ka mea ia, ha, he aha koutou te whakapono ai ki a ia?

³²But if we may say, From men,` — they were fearing the people, for all were holding John that he was indeed a prophet;

³²A ki te mea tatou, No te tangata; ka mataku ratou i te iwi: ki ta ratou katoa hoki he poropiti pono a Hoani.

³³and answering they say to Jesus, `We have not known;` and Jesus answering saith to them, `Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.`

³³Na ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea ki a Ihu, Kahore matou e matau. Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, E kore ano e korerotia e ahau ki a koutou te mana i mea ai ahau i enei mea.
