1 D o not judge and criticize and condemn others, so that you may not be judged and criticized and condemned yourselves.

Kaua e whakawa, kei whakawakia koutou.

2 F or just as you judge and criticize and condemn others, you will be judged and criticized and condemned, and in accordance with the measure you deal out to others, it will be dealt out again to you.

Na, ko te whakawakanga e whakawa ai koutou, koia ano hei whakawakanga mo koutou: a ko te mehua e mehua ai koutou, hei mehua ano tena ki a koutou.

3 W hy do you stare from without at the very small particle that is in your brother’s eye but do not become aware of and consider the beam of timber that is in your own eye?

A he aha tau e titiro ki te otaota i roto i te kanohi o tou teina, te mahara ki te kurupae i roto i tou?

4 O r how can you say to your brother, Let me get the tiny particle out of your eye, when there is the beam of timber in your own eye?

Me pehea ranei tau kupu ki tou teina, Iaua, kia kapea atu e ahau te otaota i tou kanohi; a he kurupae ano tena kei roto i tou?

5 Y ou hypocrite, first get the beam of timber out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the tiny particle out of your brother’s eye.

E te tangata tinihanga, matua kapea e koe te kurupae i tou kanohi; katahi koe ka marama ki te kape i te otaota i roto i te kanohi o tou teina.

6 D o not give that which is holy (the sacred thing) to the dogs, and do not throw your pearls before hogs, lest they trample upon them with their feet and turn and tear you in pieces.

Kaua e hoatu te mea tapu ki nga kuri, kaua ano e maka a koutou peara ki te aroaro o nga poaka, kei takatakahia e o ratou waewae, a ka tahuri, ka haehae i a koutou.

7 K eep on asking and it will be given you; keep on seeking and you will find; keep on knocking and will be opened to you.

Inoia, a ka hoatu ki a koutou; rapua, a ka kitea e koutou; patoto, a ka uakina ki a koutou;

8 F or everyone who keeps on asking receives; and he who keeps on seeking finds; and to him who keeps on knocking, will be opened.

Ka whiwhi hoki te tangata ina inoi, ka kite ina rapu; ka uakina hoki ki te tangata e patoto ana.

9 O r what man is there of you, if his son asks him for a loaf of bread, will hand him a stone?

Ko tehea tangata ianei o koutou, ina inoi tana tama ki a ia he taro, e hoatu ki a ia he kohatu?

10 O r if he asks for a fish, will hand him a serpent?

A inoi ranei he ika, e hoatu ki a ia he nakahi?

11 I f you then, evil as you are, know how to give good and advantageous gifts to your children, how much more will your Father Who is in heaven give good and advantageous things to those who keep on asking Him!

Na ki te matau koutou, te hunga kino, ki te hoatu mea papai ki a koutou tamariki, tera noa ake te homaitanga o nga mea papai e to koutou Matua i te rangi ki te hunga e inoi ana ki a ia.

12 S o then, whatever you desire that others would do to and for you, even so do also to and for them, for this is (sums up) the Law and the Prophets.

Na ko nga mea katoa, e pai ai koutou kia meatia e nga tangata ki a koutou, meatia hoki e koutou ki a ratou: ko tenei hoki ta te ture me ta nga poropiti.

13 E nter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and spacious and broad is the way that leads away to destruction, and many are those who are entering through it.

E tomo ma te kuwaha whaiti: he wharahi hoki te kuwaha, he whanui te ara, e tika ana ki te ngaromanga, a he tokomaha e haere ana ra reira.

14 B ut the gate is narrow (contracted by pressure) and the way is straitened and compressed that leads away to life, and few are those who find it.

He kuiti hoki te kuwaha, he kiki te ara e tika ana ki te ora, a he tokoiti te hunga e kite.

15 B eware of false prophets, who come to you dressed as sheep, but inside they are devouring wolves.

Kia tupato ki nga poropiti teka e haere nei ki a koutou, he hipi te kakahu, ko roto ia he wuruhi kai kino.

16 Y ou will fully recognize them by their fruits. Do people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?

Ma o ratou hua ka mohiotia ai ratou e koutou. E whakiia ranei te karepe i runga i te tataramoa, te piki ranei i te tumatakuru?

17 E ven so, every healthy (sound) tree bears good fruit '> worthy of admiration], but the sickly (decaying, worthless) tree bears bad (worthless) fruit.

Waihoki he ataahua nga hua o te rakau pai; he kino ia nga hua o te rakau kino.

18 A good (healthy) tree cannot bear bad (worthless) fruit, nor can a bad (diseased) tree bear excellent fruit.

E kore te rakau pai e ahei te hua i te hua kino, e kore ano te rakau kino e hua i te hua ataahua.

19 E very tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

Ko nga rakau katoa e kore nei e hua i te hua ataahua ka tuaina ki raro, ka maka ki te ahi.

20 T herefore, you will fully know them by their fruits.

Ina, ma o ratou hua ka mohiotia ai ratou e koutou.

21 N ot everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father Who is in heaven.

E kore e tomo ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi nga tangata katoa e mea mai ana ki ahau, E te Ariki, e te Ariki; engari ia e mea ana i ta toku Matua i te rangi i pai ai.

22 M any will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name and driven out demons in Your name and done many mighty works in Your name?

He tokomaha e mea mai ki ahau i taua ra, E te Ariki, e te Ariki; kihai koia matou i poropiti i runga i tou ingoa? i pei rewera hoki i runga i tou ingoa? he tini hoki nga mahi nunui i meatia e matou i runga i tou ingoa?

23 A nd then I will say to them openly (publicly), I never knew you; depart from Me, you who act wickedly.

Ko reira ahau mea ai ki a ratou, Kahore rawa ahau i mohio ki a koutou; mawehe atu i ahau, e nga kaimahi i te tutu.

24 S o everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them will be like a sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock.

Na ko te tangata e rongo ana ki enei kupu aku, e mahi ana hoki, ka whakaritea e ahau ki te tangata mahara, i hanga i tona whare ki runga ki te kamaka:

25 A nd the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.

A ka ua te ua, ka puta nga waipuke, ka pupuhi nga hau, te tino akinga ki taua whare; kihai hoki i hinga: no te mea i hanga ki runga ki te kamaka.

26 A nd everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a stupid (foolish) man who built his house upon the sand.

A ko te tangata e rongo ana ki enei kupu aku, a kahore e mahi, ka whakaritea ki te tangata whakaarokore i hanga i tona whare ki runga ki te onepu:

27 A nd the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great and complete was the fall of it.

Na ka ua te ua, ka puta nga waipuke, ka pupuhi nga hau, a pa ana ki taua whare; na kua hinga: he rahi ano tona hinganga.

28 W hen Jesus had finished these sayings, the crowds were astonished and overwhelmed with bewildered wonder at His teaching,

A, no ka mutu enei korero a Ihu, ka miharo te whakaminenga ki tana ako:

29 F or He was teaching as One Who had authority, and not as the scribes.

I rite hoki tana ako i a ratou ki ta te tangata whai mana, kihai hoki i rite ki ta nga karaipi.
