¹Then Jesus was led up to the wilderness by the Spirit, to be tempted by the Devil,

¹¶ Me i reira ka arahina a Ihu e te Wairua ki te koraha, kia whakamatautauria e te rewera.

²and having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he did hunger.

²A, no ka wha tekau nga ra ka wha tekau nga po i nohopuku ai, muri iho ka hiakai.

³And the Tempter having come to him said, `If Son thou art of God — speak that these stones may become loaves.`

³Na ka tae te kaiwhakamatautau ki a ia, ka mea, Ki te mea ko te Tama koe a te Atua, kiia iho kia meinga enei kohatu hei taro.

⁴But he answering said, `It hath been written, Not upon bread alone doth man live, but upon every word coming forth from the mouth of God.`

⁴Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea, Kua oti te tuhituhi, E kore e ora te tangata i te taro kau, engari i nga kupu katoa e puta mai ana i te mangai o te Atua.

⁵Then doth the Devil take him to the [holy] city, and doth set him on the pinnacle of the temple,

⁵Me i reira ka kawe te rewera i a ia ki te pa tapu, a whakaturia ana ia ki runga ki te keokeonga o te temepara,

⁶and saith to him, `If Son thou art of God — cast thyself down, for it hath been written, that, His messengers He shall charge concerning thee, and on hands they shall bear thee up, that thou mayest not dash on a stone thy foot.`

⁶A ka mea ki a ia, Ki te mea ko te Tama koe a te Atua, rere atu ki raro: kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, Ka korerotia iho koe e ia ki ana anahera; ma ratou koe e hiki ake ki o ratou ringa, kei tutuki tou waewae ki te kohatu.

⁷Jesus said to him again, `It hath been written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.`

⁷Mea atu ana a Ihu ki a ia, Ka oti ano hoki te tuhituhi, Kaua e whakamatautau ki te Ariki ki tou Atua.

⁸Again doth the Devil take him to a very high mount, and doth shew to him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them,

⁸Ka kawe ano te rewera i a ia ki runga ki tetahi maunga tiketike rawa, a whakakitea ana ki a ia nga rangatiratanga katoa o te ao, me te kororia o aua mea;

⁹and saith to him, `All these to thee I will give, if falling down thou mayest bow to me.`

⁹A mea ana ki a ia, Ko enei mea katoa e hoatu e ahau ki a koe, ki te tapapa koe, ki te koropiko ki ahau.

¹⁰Then saith Jesus to him, `Go — Adversary, for it hath been written, The Lord thy God thou shalt bow to, and Him only thou shalt serve.`

¹⁰Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Haere atu, e Hatana; kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, Me koropiko koe ki te Ariki ki tou Atua, me mahi ano ki a ia anake.

¹¹Then doth the Devil leave him, and lo, messengers came and were ministering to him.

¹¹Na ka mahue ia i te rewera, a ka haere mai nga anahera ka mahi mea mana.

¹²And Jesus having heard that John was delivered up, did withdraw to Galilee,

¹²¶ A, no ka rongo a Ihu kua tukua a Hoani ki te whare herehere, ka haere ia ki Kariri;

¹³and having left Nazareth, having come, he dwelt at Capernaum that is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtalim,

¹³A ka mahue a Nahareta i a ia, a haere ana, ka noho ki Kaperenauma, ki te taha o te moana, ki nga rohe o Hepurona, o Napatari:

¹⁴that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

¹⁴I rite ai ta Ihaia poropiti i korero ai, i mea ai,

¹⁵`Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations! —

¹⁵Ko te whenua o Hepurona, me te whenua o Napatari, i te ara o te moana, i tera taha o Horano, Kariri o nga tauiwi,

¹⁶the people that is sitting in darkness saw a great light, and to those sitting in a region and shadow of death — light arose to them.`

¹⁶Ko te hunga i noho i te pouri kua kite ratou i te marama nui; a koe te hunga i noho i te wahi i te atarangi o te mate, kua puta ake te marama ki a ratou.

¹⁷From that time began Jesus to proclaim and to say, `Reform ye, for come nigh hath the reign of the heavens.`

¹⁷No reira ano a Ihu i timata ai te kauwhau, te mea, Ripeneta, kua tata hoki te rangatiratanga o te rangi.

¹⁸And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon named Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea — for they were fishers —

¹⁸¶ A, i a Ihu e haere ana i te taha o te moana o Kariri, ka kite ia i etahi tangata tokorua, he tuakana he teina, i a Haimona, tona ingoa nei ko Pita, raua ko tona teina ko Anaru, e maka ana i te kupenga ki te moana; he kaihao ika hoki raua.

¹⁹and he saith to them, `Come ye after me, and I will make you fishers of men,`

¹⁹Na ka mea ia ki a raua, Arumia mai ahau, a maku korua e mea hei kaihao tangata.

²⁰and they, immediately, having left the nets, did follow him.

²⁰A mahue ake i a raua nga kupenga, a aru ana i a ia.

²¹And having advanced thence, he saw other two brothers, James of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, refitting their nets, and he called them,

²¹A, no tona haerenga i reira, tokorua ano ana i kite ai, he tuakana, he teina, ko Hemi tama a Heperi raua ko tona teina ko Hoani, i te kaipuke i a Heperi i to raua matua, e ta ana i nga korenga o a ratou kupenga: a karangatia ana raua e ia.

²²and they, immediately, having left the boat and their father, did follow him.

²²Mahue tonu ake i a raua te kaipuke me to raua matua, a aru ana i a ia.

²³And Jesus was going about all Galilee teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the reign, and healing every disease, and every malady among the people,

²³¶ Na ka haereerea katoatia a Kariri e Ihu, whakaako ana i roto i o ratou whare karakia, kauwhau ana i te rongopai o te rangatiratanga, me te whakaora i nga mate katoa, i nga turorotanga katoa o te iwi.

²⁴and his fame went forth to all Syria, and they brought to him all having ailments, pressed with manifold sicknesses and pains, and demoniacs, and lunatics, and paralytics, and he healed them.

²⁴A ka haere tona rongo puta noa i Hiria; a kawea ana mai e ratou ki a ia nga tangata mate katoa e ngaua ana e te tini o nga mate, o nga mamae, me te hunga e nohoia ana e te rewera, me te hunga haurangi, me nga pararutiki; a whakaorangia ake ratou e ia.

²⁵And there followed him many multitudes from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and beyond the Jordan.

²⁵A he rahi te hui i aru i a ia i Kariri, i Rekaporihi, i Hiruharama, i Huria, i tera taha ano o Horano.
