Matthew 17 ~ Matthew 17

picture

1 A ka pahure nga ra e ono, ka mau a Ihu ki a Pita, ki a Hemi raua ko tona teina ko Hoani, na kawea ana ratou e ia ki runga ki tetahi maunga tiketike ki te wahi motu ke.

And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, and James, and John his brother, and doth bring them up to a high mount by themselves,

2 A ka puta ke tona ahua i to ratou aroaro: whiti tonu tona mata me te ra, ma tonu ona kakahu me te marama.

and he was transfigured before them, and his face shone as the sun, and his garments did become white as the light,

3 N a, ka kitea e ratou a Mohi raua ko Iraia e korerorero ana ki a ia.

and lo, appear to them did Moses and Elijah, talking together with him.

4 K atahi ka oho a Pita, ka mea ki a Ihu, E te Ariki, he pai kia noho tatou i konei: ki te pai koe, ma matou e hanga etahi wharau ki konei kia toru; kia kotahi mou, kia kotahi mo Mohi, kia kotahi mo Iraia.

And Peter answering said to Jesus, `Sir, it is good to us to be here; if thou wilt, we may make here three booths -- for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elijah.'

5 I a ia ano e korero ana, na ka taumarumaru iho te kapua marama i runga i a ratou: na he reo no te kapua e mea ana, Ko taku Tama tenei i aroha ai, ko taku i ahuareka ai; whakarongo ki a ia.

While he is yet speaking, lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, `This is My Son, -- the Beloved, in whom I did delight; hear him.'

6 A no ka rongo nga akonga, ka takoto tapapa ratou, he nui hoki to ratou wehi.

And the disciples having heard, did fall upon their face, and were exceedingly afraid,

7 N a ka haere a Ihu, ka pa ki a ratou, ka mea, Whakatika, kaua e wehi.

and Jesus having come near, touched them, and said, `Rise, be not afraid,'

8 A , no ka ara ake o ratou kanohi, kahore he tangata i kitea e ratou, ko Ihu anake.

and having lifted up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus only.

9 N a, i a ratou e heke iho ana i te maunga, ka whakatupato a Ihu i a ratou, ka mea, Kaua e korerotia ki te tangata te mea i kitea nei, kia ara ake ra ano te Tama a te tangata i te hunga mate.

And as they are coming down from the mount, Jesus charged them, saying, `Say to no one the vision, till the Son of Man out of the dead may rise.'

10 A ka ui ana akonga ki a ia, ka mea, He aha nga karaipi ka mea ai, ko Iraia kia matua puta mai?

And his disciples questioned him, saying, `Why then do the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first?'

11 N a ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Ko Iraia ano e matua puta hei whakatika i nga mea katoa;

And Jesus answering said to them, `Elijah doth indeed come first, and shall restore all things,

12 K o taku ia tenei ki a koutou, Kua tae noa mai a Iraia a kihai ratou i mohio ki a ia, heoi meatia ana e ratou ki a ia ta ratou i pai ai. E pera ano te Tama a te tangata te mamae i a ratou.

and I say to you -- Elijah did already come, and they did not know him, but did with him whatever they would, so also the Son of Man is about to suffer by them.'

13 K atahi ka mohio nga akonga ko Hoani Kaiiriiri tana i korero ai ki a ratou.

Then understood the disciples that concerning John the Baptist he spake to them.

14 A , no ka tae ratou ki te mano, ka haere mai ki a ia tetahi tangata, ka tuturi nga turi ki a ia, ka mea,

And when they came unto the multitude, there came to him a man, kneeling down to him,

15 E te ariki, kia aroha ki taku tana; he haurangi hoki ia, he kino tona mamae: he maha hoki ona hinganga ki te kapura, he maha ki te wai.

and saying, `Sir, deal kindly with my son, for he is lunatic, and doth suffer miserably, for often he doth fall into the fire, and often into the water,

16 A i kawea ia e ahau ki au akonga, heoi kihai ia i taea te whakaora e ratou.

and I brought him near to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.'

17 N a ka oho a Ihu, ka mea, E te uri whakaponokore, parori ke, kia pehea te roa o toku noho ki a koutou? Kia pehea te roa o toku manawanui ki a koutou? Kawea mai ia ki konei, ki ahau.

And Jesus answering said, `O generation, unstedfast and perverse, till when shall I be with you? till when shall I bear you? bring him to me hither;'

18 N a ka riria te rewera e Ihu; a puta ana i roto i a ia; a ora ake te tamaiti i taua wa pu ano.

and Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out of him, and the lad was healed from that hour.

19 M e i reira ka haere puku nga akonga ki a Ihu, ka mea, He aha ra te ahei ai i a matou te pei i a ia ki waho?

Then the disciples having come to Jesus by himself, said, `Wherefore were we not able to cast him out?'

20 N a ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Na to koutou whakapono iti; he pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te mea he whakapono to koutou, pera me to te pua nani te rahi, e mea koutou ki tenei maunga, Neke atu i konei ki tera wahi; a ka neke; kahore hok i he mea e kore e taea e koutou.

And Jesus said to them, `Through your want of faith; for verily I say to you, if ye may have faith as a grain of mustard, ye shall say to this mount, Remove hence to yonder place, and it shall remove, and nothing shall be impossible to you,

21 O tira e kore e puta noa te pena, ma te inoi anake me te nohopuku.

and this kind doth not go forth except in prayer and fasting.'

22 A , i a ratou e noho ana i Kariri, ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Meake tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga ringa o nga tangata:

And while they are living in Galilee, Jesus said to them, `The Son of Man is about to be delivered up to the hands of men,

23 A ka whakamatea e ratou, a i te toru o nga ra ka ara. A nui atu to ratou pouri.

and they shall kill him, and the third day he shall rise,' and they were exceeding sorry.

24 A , no to ratou taenga ki Kaperenauma, ka haere mai ki a Pita nga kaikohikohi i te hawhe hekere, ka mea, E kore ianei tou Kaiwhakaako e homai i te hawhe hekere?

And they having come to Capernaum, those receiving the didrachms came near to Peter, and said, `Your teacher -- doth he not pay the didrachms?' He saith, `Yes.'

25 K a mea ia, E hoatu ano. A, no ka tapoko ia ki te whare, ko Ihu kua korero ki a ia, kua mea, E pehea ana tou whakaaro, e Haimona? E tangohia ana e nga kingi o te ao nga takoha taonga me te takoha tangata i a wai? i a ratou ake tama, i a nga tanga ta ke ranei?

And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, `What thinkest thou, Simon? the kings of the earth -- from whom do they receive custom or poll-tax? from their sons or from the strangers?'

26 K a mea a Pita ki a ia, I a nga tangata ke. Na ko te kianga a Ihu ki a ia, Ha, pena ka haere noa nga tamariki.

Peter saith to him, `From the strangers.' Jesus said to him, `Then are the sons free;

27 A hakoa ra kei whai take he mai ratou ki a tatou, haere ki te moana, piua tetahi matau, a ka eke te ika matamua, tangohia; na, ka whakatuwhera i tona mangai, ka kite ai koe i tetahi moni: tangohia tena, ka hoatu ki a ratou, hei mea moku, mou.

but, that we may not cause them to stumble, having gone to the sea, cast a hook, and the fish that hath come up first take thou up, and having opened its mouth, thou shalt find a stater, that having taken, give to them for me and thee.'
