1 J esus did not stay in the country of Judea because the Jews were trying to kill Him. After this He went from place to place in the country of Galilee.

I muri i enei mea ka haereere a Ihu i Kariri: kahore hoki ia i pai ki te haereere i Huria, e rapu ana hoki nga Hurai kia whakamatea ia.

2 A religious gathering of the Jews was near. This gathering was called the Supper of Tents.

Na kua tata te hakari a nga Hurai, te hakari whare wharau.

3 T he brothers of Jesus said to Him, “Leave here and go to the country of Judea. Let Your followers there see the things You do.

Na ka mea ona teina ki a ia, Haere atu i konei, anga atu ki Huria, kia kite ai hoki au akonga i au mahi e mahi nei koe.

4 I f a person wants others to know what he is doing, he does things to be seen. Since You are doing such things, show Yourself to the world.”

E kore hoki tetahi tangata e mea huna i tetahi mea, ki te whai ia kia ara tona ingoa. Ki te mea koe i enei mea, kia kite te ao i a koe.

5 N ot even His brothers were putting their trust in Him.

Ko ona teina tonu hoki kihai i whakapono ki a ia.

6 J esus said to them, “My time has not yet come. But any time is good for you.

Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Kahore ano kia taea noatia toku taima: ko to koutou taima ia kei nga wa katoa.

7 T he world cannot hate you but it hates Me. I speak against the world because of its sinful works.

E kore e ahei kia kino te ao ki a koutou; engari ka kino ki ahau, no te mea e whakaaturia ana e ahau te kino o ana mahi.

8 Y ou go to the religious gathering. I am not going yet. My time has not yet come.”

Haere koutou ki tenei hakari: e kore ahau e haere wawe ki tenei hakari; kahore hoki toku taima kia ata rite noa.

9 J esus told His brothers this and then stayed in Galilee.

A ka mutu tenei korero ana ki a ratou, ka noho tonu ia ki Kariri.

10 H is brothers went to the religious gathering. He went later by Himself so He would not be seen there.

A, no ka riro ona teina ki te hakari, ka haere ano hoki ia, ehara i te mea whakakite nui, engari i tu a huna.

11 A t the religious gathering the Jews were looking for Jesus. They were saying, “Where is He?”

Heoi i rapu nga Hurai i a ia i te hakari, i mea, Kei hea ia?

12 T here was much talk among the people about Him. Some said, “He is a good Man.” Others said, “No, He leads the people in the wrong way.”

He nui hoki te korero komuhumuhu mona i roto i te mano: ko etahi i mea, He tangata pai ia: ko etahi i mea, Kahore, engari e whakapohehe ana ia i te iwi.

13 N o one spoke about Him in front of other people. They were afraid of the Jews. Jesus Tells Where His Teaching Is From

Heoi kihai i rahi te korero a tetahi tangata mona, he wehi ki nga Hurai.

14 T he religious gathering was half over when Jesus went to the house of God and taught.

Na, i waenganui o te hakari, ka haere a Ihu ki roto ki te temepara whakaako ai.

15 T he Jews were surprised and wondered, saying, “How can this Man know so much when He has never been to school?”

A ka miharo nga Hurai, ka mea, na te aha i hua ai te mohio o tenei tangata, ehara nei hoki ia i te mea whakaako?

16 J esus said to them, “What I teach is not Mine. It is from God Who sent Me.

Ka whakahoki a Ihu ki a ratou, ka mea, Ehara i te mea naku ake taku e whakaako nei, engari na toku kaitono mai.

17 I f anyone will do what God wants, he will know if My teaching is from God, or if I am speaking of Myself.

Ki te pai tetahi tangata ki te mea i tana e pai ai, e matau ia ki te whakaakoranga, na te Atua ranei, he korero naku ake ranei.

18 T he man who speaks of himself is looking for greatness for himself. But He Who is looking for the greatness of the One Who sent Him is true. There is nothing false in Him.

Ko te tangata nana ake tana korero, e whai ana ia i tona ake kororia: tena ki te whai tetahi i te kororia o tona kaitono, e pono ana ia, a kahore ona he.

19 D id not Moses give you the Law? And yet not one of you keeps the Law. Why do you try to kill me?”

He teka ianei na Mohi te ture i hoatu ki a koutou, a kahore e whakaritea te ture e tetahi o koutou? He aha koutou ka whai nei kia whakamatea ahau?

20 T he people said, “You have a demon in You. Who is trying to kill You?”

Na ka whakahoki te mano ka mea, He rewera tou: ko wai te whai ana kia whakamatea koe?

21 J esus said to them, “I did one work and you are surprised.

Ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kotahi aku mahi i mahi ai, a e miharotia ana e koutou katoa.

22 M oses gave you the religious act of becoming a Jew. (Yet it was not from Moses but from the early fathers.) You do this religious act on a man on the Day of Rest.

I homai e Mohi te kotinga ki a koutou; ehara ano ia i te mea na Mohi ake, engari na nga tupuna; e kokoti ana hoki koutou i te tangata i te hapati.

23 N ow if you can do that, why are you angry with Me for healing a man on the Day of Rest?

Ki te kotia te tangata i te hapati, kei takahia te ture a Mohi; e riri ana oti koutou ki ahau, moku i whakaora rawa i te tangata i te hapati?

24 D o not say a person is guilty by what you see. Be sure you know when you say what is right or wrong.”

Kaua e waiho te whakawa i runga i ta te kanohi, engari kia tika ta koutou whakawa.

25 S ome of the people of Jerusalem said, “Is not this the Man the Jews want to kill?

Me i reira ka mea etahi o nga tangata o Hiruharama, Ehara oti tenei i a ia e whaia nei e ratou kia whakamatea?

26 B ut see! This Man is speaking out in the open. They are saying nothing to Him. Do the leaders know this is the true Christ?

Na, maia tonu tana korero, a kahore a ratou kupu ki a ia. E tino matau ana ranei nga rangatira, ko te Karaiti pu tenei?

27 W e know where this Man came from. When the Christ comes, no one will know where He comes from.”

Otiia e matau ana tatou ki te wahi i puta mai ai tenei: tena ka tae mai a te Karaiti, kahore he tangata e matau ki te wahi e puta mai ai ia.

28 T hen Jesus spoke with a loud voice as He taught in the house of God. He said, “You know Me. You know where I came from. I have not come on My own. The One Who sent Me is true but you do not know Him.

Na ka karanga a Ihu i te temepara i a ia e whakaako ana, ka mea, E matau ana koutou ki ahau, e matau ana ano ki te wahi i haere mai ai ahau: ehara i ahau ake taku haere mai; engari e pono ana te kaitono mai i ahau; kahore nei koutou i matau ki a ia.

29 I know Him because I am from Him and He sent Me.”

E matau ana ahau ki a ia; i puta mai hoki ahau i a ia, nana ano ahau i tono mai.

30 T hen they wanted to take Jesus but no one put his hands on Him. His time had not yet come.

A i whai ratou kia hopukia ia: otiia kihai i pa te ringa o tetahi ki a ia, kahore hoki tona haora i taka noa.

31 M any of the people believed in Him. They said, “When Christ comes, will He do more powerful works than this Man?”

A he tokomaha o te mano i whakapono ki a ia, i mea, ka tae mai a te Karaiti, tera ranei e maha atu ana merekara e mea ai i a tenei e mea nei?

32 T he proud religious law-keepers heard the people talking about Jesus. The religious leaders of the Jews and the proud religious law-keepers sent soldiers to take Him.

I rongo nga Parihi i te mano e korerorero ana i enei mea mona; na ka tonoa mai e nga Parihi ratou ko nga tohunga nui he katipa ki te hopu i a ia.

33 J esus said to them, “I will be with you a little while yet. Then I will go back to Him Who sent Me.

Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, He iti noa ake te wahi e noho ai ahau ki a koutou, katahi ahau ka haere ki toku kaitono mai.

34 Y ou will look for Me but you will not find Me. Where I go, you cannot come.”

Tera koutou e rapu i ahau, heoi e kore koutou e kite: e kore hoki koutou e ahei te haere ake ki te wahi e noho ai ahau.

35 T he Jews said to themselves, “Where can He go that we will not find Him? Will He go to our people who live among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

Na ka mea nga Hurai ki a ratou ano, E haere oti te tangata nei ki hea, e kore ai e kitea e tatou? e haere oti ia ki nga manene i roto i nga Kariki, ako ai i nga Kariki?

36 W hat does He mean when He says, ‘You will look for Me but you will not find Me, and where I go, you cannot come’ ?” Jesus Promises to Give the Holy Spirit

He ki aha tenei e ki nei ia, Tera koutou e rapu i ahau, a e kore e kite: e kore hoki koutou e ahei te haere ake ki te wahi e noho ai ahau?

37 I t was the last and great day of the religious gathering. Jesus stood up and spoke with a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.

I te ra whakamutunga, i te ra nui o te hakari, ka tu a Ihu, ka karanga, ka mea, Ki te matewai tetahi, haere mai ia ki ahau, kia inu.

38 T he Holy Writings say that rivers of living water will flow from the heart of the one who puts his trust in Me.”

Ki te whakapono tetahi ki ahau, ka rite ki ta te karaipiture, ka rere mai nga wai ora i roto i tona kopu.

39 J esus said this about the Holy Spirit Who would come to those who put their trust in Him. The Holy Spirit had not yet been given. Jesus had not yet been raised to the place of honor. The People Cannot Make Up Their Minds Who He Is

I korerotia tenei e ia mo te Wairua, meake nei riro i te hunga e whakapono ana ki a ia; kahore ano hoki te Wairua Tapu kia homai noa; no te mea kiano a Ihu i whakakororiatia noatia.

40 W hen many of the people heard His words, they said, “For sure, this is the One Who speaks for God.”

Ko etahi o te mano i to ratou rongonga i tenei kupu, i mea, he pono ko te Poropiti tenei.

41 O thers said, “He is the Christ!” Some said, “The Christ would not come from the country of Galilee, would He?

Ka mea etahi, Ko te Karaiti tenei. Ko etahi i mea, E puta mai ranei a te Karaiti i Kariri?

42 D o not the Holy Writings say that the Christ will come from the family of David? Will He not come from the town of Bethlehem where David lived?”

Kahore koia te karaipiture i mea, E puta mai a te Karaiti i te uri o Rawiri, i Peterehema, i te kainga i noho ai a Rawiri?

43 T he people were divided in what they thought about Him.

Na ka waiho ia hei take wehewehenga ma te mano.

44 S ome of them wanted to take Him. But no one put their hands on Him.

Ko etahi o ratou i mea kia hopukia ia: otira kihai i pa nga ringa o tetahi ki a ia.

45 T he soldiers came back to the religious leaders of the Jews and to the proud religious law-keepers. They said to the soldiers, “Why did you not bring Him?”

Na ko te taenga atu o nga katipa ki nga tohunga nui ratou ko nga Parihi; ka mea atu enei ki a ratou, he aha ia te kawea mai ai e koutou.

46 T he soldiers answered, “No man has ever spoken like this Man speaks.”

Ka whakahokia e nga katipa, Kahore rawa he tangata i rite ana korero ki a tenei.

47 T he proud religious law-keepers said, “Have you been led the wrong way also?

Na ka whakahokia ta ratou e nga Parihi, Kua tinihangatia ano hoki koutou?

48 H as anyone of the leaders or anyone from our group believed in Him?

Kua whakapono koia tetahi o nga rangatira, o nga Parihi ranei ki a ia?

49 A s for all these people, they do not know the Law. They are guilty and will be punished by God.”

Ko tenei hunga ia e kore nei e matau ki te ture, ka oti ratou te kanga.

50 ( Nicodemus was one of the proud religious law-keepers. He had come to Jesus at another time.) Nicodemus said to them,

Ka mea a Nikorima ki a ratou, tera i haere mai ra ki a ia i mua, ko ia hoki tetahi o ratou,

51 “ Our Law does not say a man is guilty before he has been in court and before we know what he has done.”

Ka whakahengia ranei te tangata e to tatou ture, i te mea kahore ano i whakarongo noa ki a ia, i matau hoki ki tana mahi?

52 T hey said to him, “Are you from Galilee also? Look into the Word of God yourself. You will see that no one who speaks for God comes from Galilee.”

Na ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea ki a ia, Ko koe hoki tetahi no Kariri? Tena rapua, ka kite koe, kahore kia ara noa tetahi poropiti i Kariri.

53 T hen everyone went home.

Na hoki ana ratou ki tona whare, ki tona whare.
