1 A nd it came to pass when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judaea beyond the Jordan;

A, ka mutu enei kupu a Ihu, ka turia atu e ia i Kariri, a ka tae ki nga wahi o Huria, ki tawahi atu o Horano;

2 a nd great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.

He rahi hoki te hui i aru i a ia; a whakaorangia ana ratou e ia i reira.

3 A nd there came unto him Pharisees, trying him, and saying, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

Na ka haere mai nga Parihi ki a ia, ki te whakamatautau i a ia, ka mea ki a ia, He mea tika ranei kia whakarerea e te tangata tana wahine mo tetahi take?

4 A nd he answered and said, Have ye not read, that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,

Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, Kiano koutou i kite noa, i hanga raua e te Kaihanga i te timatanga, he tane, he wahine,

5 a nd said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?

I mea ano ia, Mo konei ka mahue i te tangata tona papa, tona wahea, ka piri ki tana wahine: a hei kikokiko kotahi raua tokorua?

6 S o that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Na heoi ano to raua tokoruatanga, engari kotahi ano kikokiko. Na ko a te Atua i hono ai, kaua e wehea e te tangata.

7 T hey say unto him, Why then did Moses command to give a bill of divorcement, and to put her away?

Ka mea ratou ki a ia, He aha ra a Mohi i ako ai kia hoatu he pukapuka whakarere, ka whakarere ai i a ia?

8 H e saith unto them, Moses for your hardness of heart suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it hath not been so.

Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Na te pakeke o o koutou ngakau i tukua ai koutou e Mohi kia whakarere i a koutou wahine: i te timatanga iho ia kahore i pena.

9 A nd I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her when she is put away committeth adultery.

A tenei taku kupu ki a koutou, Ki te whakarere tetahi i tana wahine, ehara nei i te take moepuku, a ka marenatia ki tetahi atu, e puremu ana ia: a ki te marena tetahi i te wahine i whakarerea, e puremu ana ia.

10 T he disciples say unto him, If the case of the man is so with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.

Ka mea ana akonga ki a ia, Ki te penei te tikanga mo te tangata raua ko tana wahine, ehara te marena.

11 B ut he said unto them, Not all men can receive this saying, but they to whom it is given.

Otira ka mea ia ki a ratou, E kore tenei kupu e rite i nga tangata katoa, engari i te hunga i hoatu ai.

12 F or there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

He unaka hoki etahi no te whanautanga mai i te kopu o te whaea: ko etahi unaka he mea whakaunaka na te tangata: ko etahi unaka he mea whakaunaka na ratou ano, he whakaaro hoki ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi. Ki te taea tenei te whakarite e teta hi, mana e whakarite.

13 T hen were there brought unto him little children, that he should lay his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.

I reira ka kawea mai he tamariki nonohi ki a ia, kia whakapa ai ia i ona ringa ki a ratou, kia inoi: a riria iho ratou e nga akonga.

14 B ut Jesus said, Suffer the little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for to such belongeth the kingdom of heaven.

Na ko te kianga a Ihu, Tukua mai nga tamariki nonohi, aua hoki e araia atu ta ratou haere mai ki ahau: no nga penei hoki te rangatiratanga o te rangi.

15 A nd he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.

A whakapakia iho e ia ona ringa ki a ratou, a haere atu ana i reira.

16 A nd behold, one came to him and said, Teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

Na ka haere mai tetahi ki a ia, ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, he aha te mahi pai maku, e whiwhi ai ahau ki te ora tonu?

17 A nd he said unto him, Why askest thou me concerning that which is good? One there is who is good: but if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments.

Na ko tana meatanga ki a ia, He aha ka ui koe ki ahau mo te mea pai? Tera ano tetahi i pai, kotahi tonu: ki te mea koe kia tomo ki te ora, whakaritea nga ture.

18 H e saith unto him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

Ka mea ia ki a ia, Ko ehea? Na ka mea a Ihu, Kaua e patu tangata, Kaua e puremu, Kaua e tahae, Kaua e whakapae teka,

19 H onor thy father and mother; and, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

Whakahonoretia tou papa me tou whaea: me tenei, Kia aroha ki tou hoa tata ano ko koe.

20 T he young man saith unto him, All these things have I observed: what lack I yet?

Ka mea taua taitama ki a ia, Kua rite i ahau enei mea katoa no toku tamarikitanga: tena hoki tetahi mea e hapa ana i ahau?

21 J esus said unto him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell that which thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ki te mea koe kia tino tika, haere, hokona ou taonga, ka hoatu ki nga rawakore, a e whai taonga koe ki te rangi: a haere mai i muri i ahau.

22 B ut when the young man heard the saying, he went away sorrowful; for he was one that had great possessions.

Na, ka rongo taua taitama i taua kupu, haere pouri ana ia: he maha hoki ona taonga.

23 A nd Jesus said unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, It is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Ka mea a Ihu ki ana akonga, He pono taku kupu ki a koutou, E tapoko whakauaua te tangata taonga ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi.

24 A nd again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Tenei ano taku kupu ki a koutou, He ngawari ke atu te haere o te kamera ra te kowhao o te ngira i te haere o te tangata taonga ki roto ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

25 A nd when the disciples heard it, they were astonished exceedingly, saying, Who then can be saved?

A, no ka rongo ana akonga, nui rawa to ratou miharo, ka mea, Ko wai ra e ora?

26 A nd Jesus looking upon them said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

Na ka titiro a Ihu ki a ratou, ka mea, Ki te tangata e kore tenei e taea; ki te Atua ia e taea nga mea katoa.

27 T hen answered Peter and said unto him, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee; what then shall we have?

Katahi ka whakahoki a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, Na, kua mahue nei i a matou nga mea katoa, kua aru nei i a koe, he aha ra ma matou?

28 A nd Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Ka ki a Ihu ki a ratou, He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ko koutou i aru nei i ahau, kia taea te whanautanga houtanga, te wa e noho ai te Tama a te tangata ki runga ki te torona o tona kororia, ka noho ano koutou ki runga ki etahi torona kota hi tekau ma rua, ki te whakawa i nga iwi kotahi tekau ma rua o Iharaira.

29 A nd every one that hath left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit eternal life.

A, ki te mea kua mahue i tetahi he whare, he teina, he tuahine ranei, he papa, he whaea, he tamariki, he whenua, i tona whakaaro ki toku ingoa, ka tataki rau nga mea e riro i a ia, a ka whiwhi ia ki te ora tonu.

30 B ut many shall be last that are first; and first that are last.

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