¹¶ Na ka whakatika ia i reira, haere ana ki nga wahi o Huria ki tera taha o Horano: na ka huihui mai ano nga mano ki a ia; ka whakaako ano ia i a ratou, ko tana tikanga hoki tera.

¹And having risen thence, he doth come to the coasts of Judea, through the other side of the Jordan, and again do multitudes come together unto him, and, as he had been accustomed, again he was teaching them.

²Na ka haere mai nga Parihi, ka ui ki a ia, He mea tika ranei kia whakarere te tangata i tana wahine? he whakamatautau hoki mona.

²And the Pharisees, having come near, questioned him, if it is lawful for a husband to put away a wife, tempting him,

³Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, he aha ta Mohi i mea ai ki a koutou?

³and he answering said to them, `What did Moses command you?`

⁴Ka ki ratou, I tukua e Mohi kia tuhituhia he pukapuka whakarere, ka whakarere ai.

⁴and they said, `Moses suffered to write a bill of divorce, and to put away.`

⁵Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Na te pakeke o o koutou ngakau i tuhituhia ai e ia tenei kupu ako ki a koutou.

⁵And Jesus answering said to them, `For the stiffness of your heart he wrote you this command,

⁶I te orokohanganga ia, i hanga raua e te Atua he tane, he wahine.

⁶but from the beginning of the creation, a male and a female God did make them;

⁷Mo konei ka mahue i te tangata tona papa me tona whaea, ka piri ki tana wahine;

⁷on this account shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife,

⁸Hei kikokiko kotahi hoki raua tokorua: na heoi ano to raua tokoruatanga, engari kotahi ano kikokiko.

⁸and they shall be — the two — for one flesh; so that they are no more two, but one flesh;

⁹Na, ko a te Atua i hono ai, kaua e wehea e te tangata.

⁹what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.`

¹⁰A i te whare ka ui ano ana akonga ki a ia ki taua mea.

¹⁰And in the house again his disciples of the same thing questioned him,

¹¹Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ki te whakarere tetahi i tana wahine, a ka marena i tetahi atu, e puremu ana ia, e hara ana ki tera.

¹¹and he saith to them, `Whoever may put away his wife, and may marry another, doth commit adultery against her;

¹²Ki te whakarere hoki te wahine i tana tane, a ka marenatia ki tetahi atu, e puremu ana ia.

¹²and if a woman may put away her husband, and is married to another, she committeth adultery.`

¹³¶ Na ka kawea mai ki a ia etahi tamariki nonohi, kia pa ai ia ki a ratou: otira ka riria e nga akonga te hunga nana i kawe mai.

¹³And they were bringing to him children, that he might touch them, and the disciples were rebuking those bringing them,

¹⁴No te kitenga ia o Ihu, ka riri, ka mea ki a ratou, Tukua nga tamariki nohohi kia haere mai ki ahau, kaua hoki ratou e araia atu: no nga penei hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

¹⁴and Jesus having seen, was much displeased, and he said to them, `Suffer the children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;

¹⁵He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te kahore e rite te tango a tetahi i te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki ta te tamaiti nohinohi, e kore ia e tomo ki roto.

¹⁵verily I say to you, whoever may not receive the reign of God, as a child — he may not enter into it;`

¹⁶Na okookona ana ratou e ia, whakapakia iho ona ringa ki a ratou, manaakitia ana ratou.

¹⁶and having taken them in his arms, having put [his] hands upon them, he was blessing them.

¹⁷¶ Na, i a ia e haere ana i te huarahi, ka oma mai tetahi, ka tuku iho i nga turi ki a ia, ka ui, E te Kaiwhakaako pai, me aha ahau ka whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu?

¹⁷And as he is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to him, was questioning him, `Good teacher, what may I do, that life age-during I may inherit?`

¹⁸Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, He aha ahau i kiia ai e koe he pai? kahore tetahi i pai, kotahi anake, ko te Atua.

¹⁸And Jesus said to him, `Why me dost thou call good? no one [is] good except One — God;

¹⁹E matau ana koe ki nga ture, Kaua e puremu, Kaua e patu tangata, Kaua e tahae, Kaua e whakapae teka, Kaua e kaia, Whakahonoretia tou papa me tou whaea.

¹⁹the commands thou hast known: Thou mayest not commit adultery, Thou mayest do no murder, Thou mayest not steal, Thou mayest not bear false witness, Thou mayest not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.`

²⁰Na ka whakahoki tera, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, kua rite katoa enei mea i ahau no toku tamarikitanga ake.

²⁰And he answering said to him, `Teacher, all these did I keep from my youth.`

²¹Na ka titiro a Ihu ki a ia, ka aroha ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, Kotahi te mea kahore nei i a koe: haere, hokona au mea, ka hoatu ki nga rawakore, a e whai taonga koe ki te rangi: katahi ka haere mai, ka aru i ahau.

²¹And Jesus having looked upon him, did love him, and said to him, `One thing thou dost lack; go away, whatever thou hast — sell, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me, having taken up the cross.`

²²Otira ka tuku tona mata i taua kupu, a haere pouri atu ana: he maha hoki ona taonga.

²²And he — gloomy at the word — went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions.

²³Na ka tirotiro a Ihu, ka mea ki ana akonga, Ano te whakauaua o te tapoko o te hunga taonga ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua!

²³And Jesus having looked round, saith to his disciples, `How hardly shall they who have riches enter into the reign of God!`

²⁴Na ka miharo nga akonga ki ana kupu. Otira ka whakahoki ano a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, E tama ma, ano te whakauaua o te tapoko ki to te Atua rangatiratanga o te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki nga taonga!

²⁴And the disciples were astonished at his words, and Jesus again answering saith to them, `Children, how hard is it to those trusting on the riches to enter into the reign of God!

²⁵Erangi te haere o te kamera ra te kowhao 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.

²⁵It is easier for a camel through the eye of the needle to enter, than for a rich man to enter into the reign of God.`

²⁶Na rahi rawa to ratou miharo, ka mea ki a ratou ano, Ko wai ra e ora?

²⁶And they were astonished beyond measure, saying unto themselves, `And who is able to be saved?`

²⁷Na ka titiro a Ihu ki a ratou, ka mea, E kore tenei e taea e te tangata, ki te Atua ia ka taea: e taea hoki nga mea katoa e te Atua.

²⁷And Jesus, having looked upon them, saith, `With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.`

²⁸Katahi ka anga a Pita ka mea ki a ia, Na kua mahue nei i a matou nga mea katoa, kua aru nei i a koe.

²⁸And Peter began to say to him, `Lo, we left all, and we followed thee.`

²⁹Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea, He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te whakarerea e tetahi tangata, he whare, he teina, he tuahine, he whaea, he papa, he tamariki, he mara, he whakaaro nona ki ahau, ki te rongopai hoki,

²⁹And Jesus answering said, `Verily I say to you, there is no one who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my sake, and for the good news`,

³⁰Ina, tataki rau nga mea e riro i a ia, i tenei wa, he whare, he teina, he tuahine, he whaea, he tamariki, he mara, me te whakatoi; a, i te ao meake puta, he ora tonu.

³⁰who may not receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and fields, with persecutions, and in the age that is coming, life age-during;

³¹He tokomaha ia o mua e waiho ki muri; ko o muri hoki ki mua.

³¹and many first shall be last, and the last first.`

³²¶ Na i te huarahi ratou e haere ana ki Hiruharama; me te haere ano a Ihu i mua i a ratou: na e miharo ana ratou; e aru mataku ana. Heoi ka mau ano ia i te tekau ma rua, ka anga ka korero ki a ratou i nga mea meake pa ki a ia.

³²And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them, and they were amazed, and following they were afraid. And having again taken the twelve, he began to tell them the things about to happen to him,

³³Nana, e haere ana tenei tatou ki Hiruharama; a ka tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga tohunga nui, ki nga karaipi; ka kiia e ratou kia mate, ka tuku hoki ratou i a ia ki nga tauiwi:

³³— `Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the nations,

³⁴Ka tawaia ia, ka tuwhaina, ka whiua, ka whakamatea, a i te toru o nga ra ka ara.

³⁴and they shall mock him, and scourge him, and spit on him, and kill him, and the third day he shall rise again.`

³⁵Na ka whakatata mai ki a ia a Hemi raua ko Hoani, nga tama a Heperi, ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, e hiahia ana maua kia meatia e koe ta maua e inoi ai.

³⁵And there come near to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, `Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, thou mayest do for us;`

³⁶Na ka mea ia ki a raua, He aha ta korua e hiahia ai kia meatia e ahau ma korua?

³⁶and he said to them, `What do ye wish me to do for you?`

³⁷Ka mea raua ki a ia, Tukua ki a maua kia noho, tetahi ki tou matau, tetahi ki tou maui, i tou kororia.

³⁷and they said to him, `Grant to us that, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, we may sit in thy glory;`

³⁸Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a raua, Kahore korua e matau ki ta korua e inoi nei; e ahei ranei korua te inu i te kapu ka inumia nei e ahau? kia iriiria ki te iriiringa ka iriiria nei ahau?

³⁸and Jesus said to them, `Ye have not known what ye ask; are ye able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the baptism that I am baptized with — to be baptized?`

³⁹Ka mea raua ki a ia, E ahei ano. Ka ki atu a Ihu ki a raua, E inu ano korua i te kapu ka inumia e ahau; e iriiria korua ki te iriiringa e iriiria ai ahau:

³⁹And they said to him, `We are able;` and Jesus said to them, `Of the cup indeed that I drink of, ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with, ye shall be baptized;

⁴⁰Tena ko te noho ki toku matau, ki toku maui ranei, ehara i te mea maku e hoatu, engari ka riro i te hunga i whakaritea nei mo ratou.

⁴⁰but to sit on my right and on my left, is not mine to give, but — to those for whom it hath been prepared.`

⁴¹A, no te rongonga o te tekau, ka anga ka riri ki a Hemi raua ko Hoani.

⁴¹And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,

⁴²Na karangatia ana ratou e Ihu ki a ia, ka mea ki a ratou, E mahara ana koutou, ko te hunga e kiia ana he kawana no nga tauiwi hei whakatupu rangatira ki a ratou; ko o ratou tangata rarahi hoki hei akiaki i a ratou.

⁴²but Jesus having called them near, saith to them, `Ye have known that they who are considered to rule the nations do exercise lordship over them, and their great ones do exercise authority upon them;

⁴³Otira e kore e pera i roto i a koutou: engari ki te mea tetahi kia whakatupu tangata rahi i roto i a koutou, me whakatupu kaimahi ia ma koutou:

⁴³but not so shall it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he shall be your minister,

⁴⁴Ki te mea hoki tetahi o koutou kia whakatupu tino tangata, me whakatupu pononga ia ma te katoa.

⁴⁴and whoever of you may will to become first, he shall be servant of all;

⁴⁵Kihai nei hoki te Tama a te tangata i haere mai kia mahia he mea mana, engari kia mahi ia, kia tuku hoki i a ia kia mate hei utu mo nga tangata tokomaha.

⁴⁵for even the Son of Man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.`

⁴⁶¶ Na ka tae ratou ki Heriko: a, i a ia e haere atu ana i roto i Heriko, ratou ko ana akonga me te mano tini, e noho ana a paratimiuha, tama a Timiuha, he matapo, i te taha o te ara, ki te tono mea mana.

⁴⁶And they come to Jericho, and as he is going forth from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, a son of Timaeus — Bartimaeus the blind — was sitting beside the way begging,

⁴⁷A, i tona rongonga ko Ihu o Nahareta tena, ka anga ia ka karanga, ka mea, E ihu, e te Tama a Rawiri, kia aroha ki ahau.

⁴⁷and having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and to say, `The Son of David — Jesus! deal kindly with me;`

⁴⁸A he tokomaha ki te riri i a ia kia noho puku, heoi tino rahi ake tana karanga, E te Tama a Rawiri, kia aroha ki ahau.

⁴⁸and many were rebuking him, that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, `Son of David, deal kindly with me.`

⁴⁹Na ka tu a Ihu, ka mea kia karangatia ia. A karangatia ana e ratou te matapo, ka mea ki a ia, Kia maia, whakatika; e karanga ana ia ki a koe.

⁴⁹And Jesus having stood, he commanded him to be called, and they call the blind man, saying to him, `Take courage, rise, he doth call thee;`

⁵⁰Na ka whakarerea e ia tona kakahu, a whakatika ana, haere ana ki a Ihu.

⁵⁰and he, having cast away his garment, having risen, did come unto Jesus.

⁵¹Na ka oho a Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, He aha tau e hiahia na kia meatia e ahau mau? Ka ki te matapo ki a ia, E te Ariki, kia titiro ahau.

⁵¹And answering, Jesus saith to him, `What wilt thou I may do to thee?` and the blind man said to him, `Rabboni, that I may see again;`

⁵²Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Haere: na tou whakapono koe i ora ai. Na titiro tonu iho ia, aru ana i a Ihu i te ara.

⁵²and Jesus said to him, `Go, thy faith hath saved thee:` and immediately he saw again, and was following Jesus in the way.
