¹¶ Na i te hapati ka haere ia ra waenga witi; a katohia ana e ana akonga nga puku witi, kainga ake, he mea komukumuku ki te ringa.

¹And it came to pass, on the second-first sabbath, as he is going through the corn fields, that his disciples were plucking the ears, and were eating, rubbing with the hands,

²Na ka mea etahi o nga Parihi, He aha koutou ka mahi ai i te mea e kore e tika kia mahia i te hapati?

²and certain of the Pharisees said to them, `Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbaths?`

³Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kahore ianei koutou i kite i ta Rawiri i mea ai, i a ia e mate ana i te hiakai, ratou ko ona hoa;

³And Jesus answering said unto them, `Did ye not read even this that David did, when he hungered, himself and those who are with him,

⁴I tona tomokanga ki te whare o te Atua, ka tango ia i nga taro aroaro, na kainga ana e ia, hoatu ana hoki ki ona hoa; ko nga mea kihai nei i tika kia kainga, engari ma nga tohunga anake?

⁴how he went into the house of God, and the loaves of the presentation did take, and did eat, and gave also to those with him, which it is not lawful to eat, except only to the priests?`

⁵I mea ano ia ki a ratou, Ko te Tama a te tangata te Ariki o te hapati.

⁵and he said to them, — `The Son of Man is lord also of the sabbath.`

⁶A i tetahi atu hapati ka tomo ia ki te whare karakia, ka whakaako: i reira ano tetahi tangata, ko tona ringa matau kua memenge.

⁶And it came to pass also, on another sabbath, that he goeth into the synagogue, and teacheth, and there was there a man, and his right hand was withered,

⁷Ka titiro whakamau nga karaipi me nga Parihi ki a ia, me kore ia e whakaora i te hapati; kia whai take ai hei whakawakanga mona.

⁷and the scribes and the Pharisees were watching him, if on the sabbath he will heal, that they might find an accusation against him.

⁸Na ka mohio ia ki o ratou whakaaro, ka mea ki te tangata i te ringa memenge, Whakatika, e tu ki waenganui. A whakatika ana ia, tu ana.

⁸And he himself had known their reasonings, and said to the man having the withered hand, `Rise, and stand in the midst;` and he having risen, stood.

⁹Katahi ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Maku hoki e ui ki a koutou; He mea tika ranei te mahi pai i te hapati, te mahi kino ranei? te whakaora, te whakamate ranei?

⁹Then said Jesus unto them, `I will question you something: Is it lawful on the sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? life to save or to kill?`

¹⁰Na ka tirotiro ia ki a ratou katoa, ka mea ki taua tangata, Totoro mai tou ringa. A pera ana ia: na kua ora ano tona ringa.

¹⁰And having looked round on them all, he said to the man, `Stretch forth thy hand;` and he did so, and his hand was restored whole as the other;

¹¹Na ki tonu ratou i te honohonoa; ka korerorero ki a ratou ano, me aha ranei a Ihu e ratou.

¹¹and they were filled with madness, and were speaking with one another what they might do to Jesus.

¹²¶ A i aua ra ka haere ia ki te maunga ki te inoi, he inoi tonu tana i te roa o te po ki te Atua.

¹²And it came to pass in those days, he went forth to the mountain to pray, and was passing the night in the prayer of God,

¹³A, ka ao te ra, ka karangatia e ia ana akonga: ka whiriwhiria e ia kotahi tekau ma rua o ratou, a huaina ana hoki e ia hei apotoro;

¹³and when it became day, he called near his disciples, and having chosen from them twelve, whom also he named apostles,

¹⁴Ko Haimona, i huaina hoki e ia ko Pita, ko tona teina ko Anaru, ko Hemi raua ko Hoani, ko Piripi raua ko Patoromu,

¹⁴(Simon, whom also he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,

¹⁵Ko Matiu raua ko Tamati, ko hemi tama a Arapiu, ko Haimona e kiia nei ko Heroti,

¹⁵Matthew and Thomas, James of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,

¹⁶Ko Hura tama a Hemi, ko Hura Ikariote hoki, ko ia nei te kaituku.

¹⁶Judas of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became betrayer;)

¹⁷Na ka heke ngatahi iho ratou, tu ana i tetahi wahi tairite, ratou ko te ropu o ana akonga, me te huihuinga nui o te iwi i Huria katoa, i Hiruharama, i te taha hoki o te moana o Taira, o Hairona, i haere mai nei ki te whakarongo ki a ia, kia whak aorangia hoki o ratou mate;

¹⁷and having come down with them, he stood upon a level spot, and a crowd of his disciples, and a great multitude of the people from all Judea, and Jerusalem, and the maritime Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their sicknesses,

¹⁸Me te hunga ano e whakatoia ana e nga wairua poke: a whakaorangia ana ratou.

¹⁸and those harassed by unclean spirits, and they were healed,

¹⁹I whai ano te mano katoa kia pa ki a ia; i puta hoki he kaha i a ia, a whakaorangia ana ratou katoa.

¹⁹and all the multitude were seeking to touch him, because power from him was going forth, and he was healing all.

²⁰¶ Na ka titiro ona kanohi ki ana akonga, ka mea ia, Ka koa koutou, e nga rawakore: mo koutou hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

²⁰And he, having lifted up his eyes to his disciples, said: `Happy the poor — because yours is the reign of God.

²¹Ka koa koutou e hiakai nei inaianei: ka makona hoki koutou. Ka koa koutou e tangi nei inaianei: e kata hoki koutou.

²¹`Happy those hungering now — because ye shall be filled. `Happy those weeping now — because ye shall laugh.

²²Ka koa koutou ina kinongia koutou e nga tangata, ina wehea atu i roto i a ratou, ina tawaia, ina rukea atu to koutou ingoa, ano he mea kino, mo te whakaaro ki te Tama a te tangata.

²²`Happy are ye when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you, and shall reproach, and shall cast forth your name as evil, for the Son of Man`s sake —

²³Kia hari i taua ra, me te tupekepeke: he nui hoki to koutou utu i te rangi: i peratia hoki nga poropiti e o ratou matua.

²³rejoice in that day, and leap, for lo, your reward [is] great in the heaven, for according to these things were their fathers doing to the prophets.

²⁴Otira aue, te mate mo koutou, mo te hunga taonga! kua riro hoki i a koutou to koutou whakamarie.

²⁴`But wo to you — the rich, because ye have got your comfort.

²⁵Aue, te mate mo koutou, mo te hunga e makona ana inaianei! e mate hoki koutou i te hiakai. Aue, te mate mo koutou, mo te hunga e kata ana inaianei! ka aue hoki koutou, ka tangi.

²⁵`Wo to you who have been filled — because ye shall hunger. `Wo to you who are laughing now — because ye shall mourn and weep.

²⁶Aue, te mate mo koutou ka korerotia paitia koutou e nga tangata katoa! i pera hoki o ratou matua ki nga poropiti teka.

²⁶`Wo to you when all men shall speak well of you — for according to these things were their fathers doing to false prophets.

²⁷¶ Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou e whakarongo mai nei, Arohaina o koutou hoa whawhai; kia pai te mahi ki te hunga e kino ana ki a koutou;

²⁷`But I say to you who are hearing, Love your enemies, do good to those hating you,

²⁸Manaakitia te hunga e kanga ana i a koutou, me inoi mo te hunga e whakawhiu ana i a koutou.

²⁸bless those cursing you, and pray for those accusing you falsely;

²⁹Na ki te pakia tou paparinga e tetahi, whakaangahia atu hoki tetahi; ki te tangohia tou ngeri e tetahi, kaua e kaiponuhia tou koti.

²⁹and to him smiting thee upon the cheek, give also the other, and from him taking away from thee the mantle, also the coat thou mayest not keep back.

³⁰Hoatu ki nga tangata katoa e inoi ana ki a koe; kaua hoki e tonoa au mea ki te tangohia e te tangata.

³⁰`And to every one who is asking of thee, be giving; and from him who is taking away thy goods, be not asking again;

³¹A, ko ta koutou e pai ai kia meatia e nga tangata ki a koutou, meatia ano e koutou ki a ratou.

³¹and as ye wish that men may do to you, do ye also to them in like manner;

³²Ki te aroha koutou ki te hunga e aroha ana ki a koutou, kei hea he whakawhetai ki a koutou? e aroha ana hoki te hunga hara ki te hunga e aroha ana ki a ratou.

³²and — if ye love those loving you, what grace have ye? for also the sinful love those loving them;

³³Ki te atawhai hoki koutou i te hunga e atawhai ana i a koutou, kei hea he whakawhetai ki a koutou? e pena ana ano te hunga hara.

³³and if ye do good to those doing good to you, what grace have ye? for also the sinful do the same;

³⁴Ki te tuku moni koutou ki te hunga e mea ai koutou ka utua mai e ratou, kei hea he whakawhetai ki a koutou? e tuku moni ana hoki te hunga hara ki te hunga hara, mo te pera kia whakahokia ki a ratou.

³⁴and if ye lend [to those] of whom ye hope to receive back, what grace have ye? for also the sinful lend to sinners — that they may receive again as much.

³⁵Engari kia aroha ki o koutou hoa whawhai, mahia te pai ki a ratou, ka tuku atu he moni, kaua ano e mutu te tumanako; a tera e rahi te whakautu ki a koutou, ka tupu koutou hei tamariki ma te Runga Rawa: e atawhai ana hoki ia i te hunga e kore e w hakawhetai, i te hunga kino.

³⁵`But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again, and your reward will be great, and ye shall be sons of the Highest, because He is kind unto the ungracious and evil;

³⁶Kia ngawari rapea koutou, kia pera me to koutou Matua e ngawari ana.

³⁶be ye therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful.

³⁷¶ Kaua e whakawa, a e kore koutou e whakawakia: kaua e whakatau he, a e kore te he e whakataua ki a koutou: houhia te rongo, a e houhia ano te rongo ki a koutou.

³⁷`And judge not, and ye may not be judged; condemn not, and ye may not be condemned; release, and ye shall be released.

³⁸Hoatu, a ka homai ki a koutou; he mehua pai, pehi rawa, oioi rawa, purena tonu ta ratou e homai ai ki te kokoru o o koutou kakahu. Ko te mehua hoki e mehua ai koutou, hei mehua ano tena ki a koutou.

³⁸`Give, and it shall be given to you; good measure, pressed, and shaken, and running over, they shall give into your bosom; for with that measure with which ye measure, it shall be measured to you again.`

³⁹A ka puaki tana kupu whakarite ki a ratou, E ahei ranei te matapo te arahi i te matapo? e kore ranei e taka tahi raua ki te poka?

³⁹And he spake a simile to them, `Is blind able to lead blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?

⁴⁰E kore te akonga e rahi ake i tona kaiwhakaako: engari ka rite ano ki o ratou kaiwhakaako nga tangata katoa kua tino pukengatia.

⁴⁰A disciple is not above his teacher, but every one perfected shall be as his teacher.

⁴¹He aha tau e titiro ki te otaota i roto i te kanohi o tou teina, te kite i te kurupae i tou ake kanohi?

⁴¹`And why dost thou behold the mote that is in thy brother`s eye, and the beam that [is] in thine own eye dost not consider?

⁴²A me pehea e taea ai e koe te korero ki tou teina, E toku teina, iaua, kia kapea atu e ahau te otaota i roto i tou kanohi; te kite i te kurupae i roto i tou kanohi? E te tangata tinihanga, matua kapea atu e koe te kurupae i roto i tou kanohi, ka tahi koe ka marama ai ki te kape i te otaota i roto i te kanohi o tou teina.

⁴²or how art thou able to say to thy brother, Brother, suffer, I may take out the mote that [is] in thine eye — thyself the beam in thine own eye not beholding? Hypocrite, take first the beam out of thine own eye, and then thou shalt see clearly to take out the mote that [is] in thy brother`s eye.

⁴³E kore hoki te rakau ataahua e hua i te hua kino; e kore ano te rakau kino e hua i te hua ataahua.

⁴³`For there is not a good tree making bad fruit, nor a bad tree making good fruit;

⁴⁴Ma ona hua tonu ka mohiotia ai tenei rakau, tenei rakau. E kore hoki e kohia he piki i runga i nga tataramoa, e kore ano e whakaiia he karepe i runga i te tumatakuru.

⁴⁴for each tree from its own fruit is known, for not from thorns do they gather figs, nor from a bramble do they crop a grape.

⁴⁵He tangata pai, he pai tana e whakaputa ai i roto i te taonga pai o tona ngakau; he tangata kino, he kino tana e whakaputa ai i roto i nga taonga kino o tona ngakau: he purenatanga hoki no te ngakau nga kupu a te mangai.

⁴⁵`The good man out of the good treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which [is] good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart doth bring forth that which [is] evil; for out of the abounding of the heart doth his mouth speak.

⁴⁶He aha koutou ka karanga ai ki ahau, E te Ariki, e te Ariki, te mahi i aku e korero ai?

⁴⁶`And why do ye call me, Lord, Lord, and do not what I say?

⁴⁷Na, ko te tangata e haere mai ana ki ahau, e rongo ana ki aku kupu, a e mahi ana, maku e whakaatu ki a koutou tona rite:

⁴⁷Every one who is coming unto me, and is hearing my words, and is doing them, I will shew you to whom he is like;

⁴⁸Ka rite ia ki te tangata i hanga i tetahi whare, i keri, i whakahohonu, a whakatakoto ana i te papa ki runga ki te toka: a, i te putanga o te waipuke, ka pakaru te roma ki taua whare, heoi kihai i taea te whakangaueue: no te mea i u tona hangang a.

⁴⁸he is like to a man building a house, who did dig, and deepen, and laid a foundation upon the rock, and a flood having come, the stream broke forth on that house, and was not able to shake it, for it had been founded upon the rock.

⁴⁹Tena ko te tangata i rongo, a kihai i mahi, ka rite ia ki te tangata i hanga i tetahi whare ki runga ki te oneone, te ai he turanga: i te pakarutanga o te roma, na hinga tonu iho; a nui atu te pakaru o taua whare.

⁴⁹`And he who heard and did not, is like to a man having builded a house upon the earth, without a foundation, against which the stream brake forth, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house became great.`
