1 S ix days later Jesus took with Him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves.

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.

2 A nd He was transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light.

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

3 A nd behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.

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

4 P eter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You wish, I will make three tabernacles here, one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

Katahi 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.

5 W hile he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud said, “ This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him!”

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.

6 W hen the disciples heard this, they fell face down to the ground and were terrified.

Ano ka rongo nga akonga, ka takoto tapapa ratou, he nui hoki to ratou wehi.

7 A nd Jesus came to them and touched them and said, “Get up, and do not be afraid.”

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

8 A nd lifting up their eyes, they saw no one except Jesus Himself alone.

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

9 A s they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “ Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”

Na, 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.

10 A nd His disciples asked Him, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

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

11 A nd He answered and said, “Elijah is coming and will restore all things;

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

12 b ut I say to you that Elijah already came, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wished. So also the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.”

Ko 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.

13 T hen the disciples understood that He had spoken to them about John the Baptist. The Demoniac

Katahi ka mohio nga akonga ko Hoani Kaiiriiri tana i korero ai ki a ratou.

14 W hen they came to the crowd, a man came up to Jesus, falling on his knees before Him and saying,

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,

15 “ Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is a lunatic and is very ill; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water.

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.

16 I brought him to Your disciples, and they could not cure him.”

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

17 A nd Jesus answered and said, “You unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.”

Na 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.

18 A nd Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was cured at once.

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

19 T hen the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not drive it out?”

Me 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?

20 A nd He said to them, “Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.

Na 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.

21 ' > But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” ]

Otira e kore e puta noa te pena, ma te inoi anake me te nohopuku.

22 A nd while they were gathering together in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men;

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:

23 a nd they will kill Him, and He will be raised on the third day.” And they were deeply grieved. The Tribute Money

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

24 W hen they came to Capernaum, those who collected the two-drachma tax came to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay the two-drachma tax ?”

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?

25 H e said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect customs or poll-tax, from their sons or from strangers?”

Ka 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?

26 W hen Peter said, “From strangers,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are exempt.

Ka 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.

27 H owever, so that we do not offend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up; and when you open its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take that and give it to them for you and Me.”

Ahakoa 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.
