1 A s they approached Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples,

A, no ka tata ratou ki Hiruharama, ki Petapaki, ki Petani, a ka tae ki Maunga Oriwa, tokorua ana akonga i tonoa e ia,

2 a nd said to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here.

A i mea ia ki a raua, Haere ki te kainga e anga mai ana ki a korua: e tomo kau ki reira, ka kite korua i tetahi kuao e here ana, kahore ano kia nohoia e te tangata; wetekina, arahina mai.

3 I f anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ you say, ‘The Lord has need of it’; and immediately he will send it back here.”

A ki te ki mai tetahi tangata ki a korua, He aha tenei ka meinga ai e korua? ka mea atu, E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mana: na ka tukua tonutia mai ki konei.

4 T hey went away and found a colt tied at the door, outside in the street; and they untied it.

Na haere ana raua, ka kite i te kuao e here ana ki te kuwaha i waho i te ara; a wetekina ana e raua.

5 S ome of the bystanders were saying to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?”

A ka mea etahi o te hunga e tu ana i reira ki a raua, he aha ta korua e wewete na i te kuao?

6 T hey spoke to them just as Jesus had told them, and they gave them permission.

Na ka korerotia e raua ki a ratou ta Ihu i mea ai: a tukua ana raua e ratou.

7 T hey brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it; and He sat on it.

Ka arahina te kuao ki a Ihu, na wharikitia ana o raua kakahu ki runga ki a ia; a noho ana ia i runga.

8 A nd many spread their coats in the road, and others spread leafy branches which they had cut from the fields.

Na he tokomaha i whariki i o ratou kakahu ki te ara: ko etahi i kokoti i nga manga o nga rakau, wharikitia ana ki te ara.

9 T hose who went in front and those who followed were shouting: “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord;

Ko te hunga i haere i mua, me te hunga i haere i muri, i karanga, i mea, Ohana: Ka whakapaingia ia e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki:

10 B lessed is the coming kingdom of our father David; Hosanna in the highest!”

Ka whakapaingia te rangatiratanga e haere mai ana, te rangatiratanga o to tatou matua o Rawiri: Ohana i runga rawa.

11 J esus entered Jerusalem and came into the temple; and after looking around at everything, He left for Bethany with the twelve, since it was already late.

Na ka tomo a Ihu ki Hiruharama, ki roto hoki ki te temepara: a, ka mutu tana tirotiro i nga mea katoa, ko te wa hoki o te ahiahi, ka haere ratou ko te tekau ma rua ki Petani.

12 O n the next day, when they had left Bethany, He became hungry.

Na, i te aonga ake, i a ratou kua puta i Petani, ka hiakai ia:

13 S eeing at a distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if perhaps He would find anything on it; and when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

A, i tona kitenga i tetahi piki i tawhiti, he rau ona, ka haere ia, me kore e kitea tetahi mea i runga: a, no tona taenga, kihai i kitea e ia tetahi mea, he rau anake: ehara hoki i te wa o te piki.

14 H e said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again!” And His disciples were listening. Jesus Drives Money Changers from the Temple

Na ka oho a Ihu, ka mea ki taua rakau, Kaua rawa te tangata e kai i tetahi hua ou ake tonu atu; me te whakarongo ano ana akonga.

15 T hen they came to Jerusalem. And He entered the temple and began to drive out those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves;

A ka tae ratou ki Hiruharama: na ka tomo a Ihu ki te temepara, ka anga ki te pei ki waho i te hunga e hoko atu ana, e hoko mai ana i roto i te temepara, a whakatahuritia ake nga tepu o nga kaiwhakawhitiwhiti moni, me nga nohoanga o nga kaihoko k ukupa;

16 a nd He would not permit anyone to carry merchandise through the temple.

A kihai i tukua e ia kia mauria tetahi oko e te tangata ra te temepara.

17 A nd He began to teach and say to them, “Is it not written, ‘ My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations ’? But you have made it a robbers ’ den.”

A i whakaako ia, i mea ki a ratou, Kahore koia i tuhituhia, Ka kiia toku whare he whare inoi mo nga tauiwi katoa? otiia kua meinga nei e koutou hei ana mo nga kaipahua.

18 T he chief priests and the scribes heard this, and began seeking how to destroy Him; for they were afraid of Him, for the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.

I rongo hoki nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi, a ka rapu ki te pehea e whakangaromia ai ia: i mataku hoki ratou i a ia, no te mea i miharo te mano katoa ki tana ako.

19 W hen evening came, they would go out of the city.

A i nga ahiahi ka haere ia ki waho o te pa.

20 A s they were passing by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots up.

A, i te ata i a ratou e haere ana, ka kite i te piki, kua maroke ake i nga pakiaka.

21 B eing reminded, Peter said to Him, “ Rabbi, look, the fig tree which You cursed has withered.”

Na ka mahara a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, na, te piki i kanga ra e koe, kua maroke.

22 A nd Jesus answered saying to them, “ Have faith in God.

Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kia mau te whakapono ki te Atua.

23 T ruly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted him.

He pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te mea tetahi ki tenei maunga, Kia ranga atu koe, kia whakataka ki te moana: e kore hoki e ruarua tona ngakau, engari ka whakapono ia tera e puta mai nga mea i kiia e ia; ka whiwhi ia ki tana i mea ai.

24 T herefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you.

Koia ahau ka mea nei ki a koutou, Ko nga mea katoa e tono ai koutou ina inoi, me whakapono ka riro mai i a koutou, a ka whiwhi koutou.

25 W henever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you your transgressions.

A, ka tu koutou, ka karakia, ki te mea he take riri ta koutou ki tetahi, murua: kia murua ai hoki o koutou he e to koutou Matua i te rangi.

26 ' > But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your transgressions.” ] Jesus’ Authority Questioned

Na ki te kore koutou e muru, e kore ano to koutou Matua i te rangi e muru i o koutou he.

27 T hey came again to Jerusalem. And as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to Him,

Na ka tae ano ratou ki Hiruharama: a, i a ia e haereere ana i te temepara, ka haere mai ki a ia nga tohunga nui, me nga karaipi, me nga kaumatua:

28 a nd began saying to Him, “By what authority are You doing these things, or who gave You this authority to do these things?”

Ka mea ki a ia, Tena, te mana i meatia ai enei mea e koe? na wai hoki tenei mana i hoatu ki a koe, i mea ai koe i enei mea?

29 A nd Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question, and you answer Me, and then I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Maku hoki e ui ki a koutou kia kotahi kupu, ma koutou e whakahoki mai ki ahau, katahi ka korerotia e ahau ki a koutou te mana i mea ai ahau i enei mea.

30 W as the baptism of John from heaven, or from men? Answer Me.”

Ko te iriiringa a Hoani, no te rangi, no te tangata ranei? korerotia mai ki ahau.

31 T hey began reasoning among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’

A ka korerorero ratou ki a ratou ano, ka mea, Ki te mea tatou, No te rangi; ka mea ia, ha, he aha koutou te whakapono ai ki a ia?

32 B ut shall we say, ‘From men’?”—they were afraid of the people, for everyone considered John to have been a real prophet.

A ki te mea tatou, No te tangata; ka mataku ratou i te iwi: ki ta ratou katoa hoki he poropiti pono a Hoani.

33 A nswering Jesus, they said, “We do not know.” And Jesus said to them, “Nor will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

Na ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea ki a Ihu, Kahore matou e matau. Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, E kore ano e korerotia e ahau ki a koutou te mana i mea ai ahau i enei mea.
