1 A t which time the myriads of the multitude having been gathered together, so as to tread upon one another, he began to say unto his disciples, first, `Take heed to yourselves of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy;

Na kei te huihui ano tera nga mano, tona tini, no ka takatakahi i a ratou ano, a ka anga ia ka korero i te tuatahi tonu ki ana akonga, ka mea, Kia tupato i te rewena o nga Parihi, ara i te tinihanga.

2 a nd there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known;

Kahore hoki he mea i hipokina e mahue te hura; kahore hoki tetahi mea ngaro e mahue te mohio.

3 b ecause whatever in the darkness ye said, in the light shall be heard: and what to the ear ye spake in the inner-chambers, shall be proclaimed upon the house-tops.

Mo konei ko ta koutou e korero ai i te pouri, ka rangona i te marama; ko ta koutou e kia ai ki te taringa i nga ruma i roto rawa, ka kauwhautia i runga o nga whare.

4 ` And I say to you, my friends, be not afraid of those killing the body, and after these things are not having anything over to do;

Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, e oku hoa, kaua e wehi ki te hunga e whakamate nei i te tinana, a muri iho kahore he mea e taea e ratou.

5 b ut I will show to you, whom ye may fear; Fear him who, after the killing, is having authority to cast to the gehenna; yes, I say to you, Fear ye Him.

Engari maku e whakaatu ki a koutou ta koutou e wehi ai: E wehi ki a ia kei a ia nei te mana, i muri i tana whakamatenga, ki te maka ki Kehena; ae ra hoki, ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, E wehi ki a ia.

6 ` Are not five sparrows sold for two assars? and one of them is not forgotten before God,

Kahore ianei e hokona nga pihoihoi e rima ki nga patene e rua? a kahore tetahi o ratou e wareware i te Atua?

7 b ut even the hairs of your head have been all numbered; therefore fear ye not, than many sparrows ye are of more value.

Heoi kua oti katoa te tatau nga makawe katoa nei o o koutou matenga. Kaua e wehi: engari koutou i nga pihoihoi maha.

8 ` And I say to you, Every one -- whoever may confess with me before men, the Son of Man also shall confess with him before the messengers of God,

Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Ki te whakaae tetahi ki ahau i te aroaro o nga tangata, ka whakaaetia ano ia e te Tama a te tangata i te aroaro o nga anahera a te Atua:

9 a nd he who hath denied me before men, shall be denied before the messengers of God,

Ki te whakakahore tetahi i ahau i te aroaro o nga tangata, ka whakakahoretia ano ia i te aroaro o nga anahera a te Atua.

10 a nd every one whoever shall say a word to the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven to him, but to him who to the Holy Spirit did speak evil, it shall not be forgiven.

Ki te korero tetahi he whakahe mo te Tama a te tangata, ka murua tona hara; tena ko te tangata e kohukohua ai te Wairua Tapu, e kore tona e murua.

11 ` And when they bring you before the synagogues, and the rulers, and the authorities, be not anxious how or what ye may reply, or what ye may say,

Ki te kawea koutou ki nga whare karakia, ki nga rangatira, ki te hunga whai mana, kaua e manukanuka ki te pehea, ki te aha ranei e whakahoki atu ai koutou, ki ta koutou ranei e korero ai:

12 f or the Holy Spirit shall teach you in that hour what it behoveth to say.'

Ma te Wairua Tapu hoki koutou e ako i taua haora ano ki nga mea e tika ana kia korerotia e koutou.

13 A nd a certain one said to him, out of the multitude, `Teacher, say to my brother to divide with me the inheritance.'

Na ka mea tetahi i roto i te mano ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, mea atu ki toku tuakana, kia wehea mai moku tetahi wahi o te kainga.

14 A nd he said to him, `Man, who set me a judge or a divider over you?'

Na ko tana meatanga ki a ia, E te tangata nei, na wai ahau i mea hei kaiwhakawa, hei kaiwehewehe i waenganui i a koutou?

15 A nd he said unto them, `Observe, and beware of the covetousness, because not in the abundance of one's goods is his life.'

I mea ano ia ki a ratou, Kia mahara, kia tupato ki te apo: ehara i te mea ma te nui o nga taonga a te tangata e ora ai ia.

16 A nd he spake a simile unto them, saying, `Of a certain rich man the field brought forth well;

Na ka korerotia e ia tetahi kupu whakarite ki a ratou, ka mea, Na he nui te hua o te whenua o tetahi tangata whai taonga:

17 a nd he was reasoning within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not where I shall gather together my fruits?

Na ka whakaaroaro ia i roto i a ia, Me pehea ahau? Kahore hoki oku wahi hei putunga mo aku hua.

18 a nd he said, This I will do, I will take down my storehouses, and greater ones I will build, and I will gather together there all my products and my good things,

A ka mea ia, Tenei taku e mea ai: ka wawahia e ahau oku whare witi, a ka hanga kia nui: a ka kohikohia ki reira aku hua katoa, me aku taonga:

19 a nd I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many good things laid up for many years, be resting, eat, drink, be merry.

Katahi ahau ka mea ki toku wairua, E toku wairua, ka maha au mea papai kei te rongoa mo nga tau e maha; noho noa iho, e kai, e inu, kia koa te ngakau.

20 ` And God said to him, Unthinking one! this night thy soul they shall require from thee, and what things thou didst prepare -- to whom shall they be?

Otiia ka mea te Atua ki a ia, Kuware, ko a tenei po ano tangohia ai tou wairua i a koe: a ma wai nga mea kua pae na i a koe?

21 s o he who is treasuring up to himself, and is not rich toward God.'

Na, ka pena te tangata e whakapuranga ana i te taonga mana ake, a kahore e hua tana whaka te Atua.

22 A nd he said unto his disciples, `Because of this, to you I say, Be not anxious for your life, what ye may eat; nor for the body, what ye may put on;

Na ka mea ia ki ana akonga, Koia ahau ka mea nei ki a koutou, Kaua e manukanuka ki to koutou oranga, ki ta koutou e kai ai; ki te tinana ranei, ki ta koutou e kakahu ai.

23 t he life is more than the nourishment, and the body than the clothing.

Rahi atu te ora i te kai, me te tinana i te kakahu.

24 ` Consider the ravens, that they sow not, nor reap, to which there is no barn nor storehouse, and God doth nourish them; how much better are ye than the fowls?

Whakaaroa nga rawene; kahore nei e whakato, kahore e kokoti, kahore a ratou pakoro, kahore he whare witi; heoi e whangaia ana ratou e te Atua: tera noa ake koutou i nga manu.

25 a nd who of you, being anxious, is able to add to his age one cubit?

A ko wai o koutou e taea e ia te whakaaro iho, te hono tetahi wahi ki tona roa, kia kotahi te whatianga?

26 I f, then, ye are not able for the least -- why for the rest are ye anxious?

A ki te kore e taea e koutou te mea nohinohi rawa, he aha i manukanuka ai ki tetahi atu?

27 ` Consider the lilies, how do they grow? they labour not, nor do they spin, and I say to you, not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these;

Whakaaroa nga rengarenga, to ratou tupu: e kore nei e mahi, e kore e miro; na ko taku tenei ki a koutou, Kihai a Horomona me tona kororia katoa i rite ki tetahi o enei te whai kakahu.

28 a nd if the herbage in the field, that to-day is, and to-morrow into an oven is cast, God doth so clothe, how much more you -- ye of little faith?

Na, ki te penei ta te Atua whakakakahu i te tarutaru i te parae, kei reira aianei, a apopo ka maka ki te oumu; tera noa ake tana i a koutou, e te hunga whakapono iti.

29 ` And ye -- seek not what ye may eat, or what ye may drink, and be not in suspense,

Kaua ra e rapu ki ta koutou e kai ai, ki ta koutou e inu ai, kaua e tirengi noa te whakaaro.

30 f or all these things do the nations of the world seek after, and your Father hath known that ye have need of these things;

E rapu ana hoki nga iwi o te ao i enei mea katoa: otira e matau ana to koutou Matua e matea ana e koutou enei mea.

31 b ut, seek ye the reign of God, and all these things shall be added to you.

Engari rapu te rangatiratanga o te Atua: a ka tapiritia enei mea katoa ma koutou.

32 ` Fear not, little flock, because your Father did delight to give you the reign;

Kaua e mataku, e te kahui nohinohi; kua pai hoki to koutou matua ki te homai i te rangatiratanga ki a koutou.

33 s ell your goods, and give alms, make to yourselves bags that become not old, a treasure unfailing in the heavens, where thief doth not come near, nor moth destroy;

Hokona o koutou taonga, hoatu he mea ma te hunga rawakore; hanga ma koutou he peke moni e kore e tawhitotia, he taonga ki te rangi e kore e memeha, ki te wahi e kore nei e tata atu te tahae, e kore ano te huhu e kai.

34 f or where your treasure is, there also your heart will be.

Ko te wahi hoki i to koutou taonga, ko reira ano o koutou ngakau.

35 ` Let your loins be girded, and the lamps burning,

Whitikiria o koutou hope, tahuna nga rama kia ka;

36 a nd ye like to men waiting for their lord, when he shall return out of the wedding feasts, that he having come and knocked, immediately they may open to him.

Ko to koutou rite hei nga tangata e tatari ana ki to ratou rangatira, ina hoki mai i te hakari o te marena; mo tona tae rawa mai, ka patoto, na uaki tonu atu ratou ki a ia.

37 ` Happy those servants, whom the lord, having come, shall find watching; verily I say to you, that he will gird himself, and will cause them to recline (at meat), and having come near, will minister to them;

Ka koa nga pononga e rokohina mai e to ratou rangatira, a tona taenga mai, e mataara ana: he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, ka whitiki ia i a ia, a ka mea i a ratou kia noho, ka haere ki te mahi mea ma ratou.

38 a nd if he may come in the second watch, and in the third watch he may come, and may find so, happy are those servants.

A ki te haere mai ia i te rua o nga mataaratanga, i te toru ranei, a ka rokohina mai e pera ana ano, ka koa aua pononga.

39 ` And this know, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief doth come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken through;

Otira kia mohio koutou ki tenei, me i matau te tangata i te whare, ki te wa e haere mai ai te tahae, kua mataara ia, a kahore i tukua kia pokaia tona whare.

40 a nd ye, then, become ye ready, because at the hour ye think not, the Son of Man doth come.'

Kia tatanga ra koutou: no te mea e puta mai te Tama a te tangata i te haora e kore ai koutou e mahara.

41 A nd Peter said to him, `Sir, unto us this simile dost thou speak, or also unto all?'

Na ka mea a Pita ki a ia, E te Ariki, ki a matou tenei kupu whakarite e korero nei koe? ki te katoa ranei?

42 A nd the Lord said, `Who, then, is the faithful and prudent steward whom the lord shall set over his household, to give in season the wheat measure?

Na ka mea te Ariki, Ko wai ra te tuari pono, mahara, e meinga e tona ariki hei rangatira mo ana tangata, hei hoatu i te mehua kai i te wa e tika ai?

43 H appy that servant, whom his lord, having come, shall find doing so;

Ka koa taua pononga, ki te rokohina e tona rangatira ina tae mai, e pena ana.

44 t ruly I say to you, that over all his goods he will set him.

He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, ka meinga ia hei rangatira mo ana taonga katoa.

45 ` And if that servant may say in his heart, My lord doth delay to come, and may begin to beat the men-servants and the maid-servants, to eat also, and to drink, and to be drunken;

Otira ki te mea taua pononga i roto i tona ngakau, Ka roa te haerenga mai o toku ariki; a ka anga ka whiu i nga pononga tane, i nga pononga wahine, ka kai, ka inu, ka haurangi;

46 t he lord of that servant will come in a day in which he doth not look for, and in an hour that he doth not know, and will cut him off, and his portion with the unfaithful he will appoint.

Ka haere mai te rangatira o taua pononga i te ra e kore ai ia e mahara, i te haora e kore ai ia e mohio, a ka hautopea ia, ka meinga mona he wahi i roto i te hunga whakaponokore.

47 ` And that servant, who having known his lord's will, and not having prepared, nor having gone according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes,

Na, ko taua pononga, i mohio nei ki ta tona rangatira i pai ai, a kihai i whakaaro wawe, kihai hoki i mea i tana i pai ai, he maha nga whiu mona:

48 a nd he who, not having known, and having done things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few; and to every one to whom much was given, much shall be required from him; and to whom they did commit much, more abundantly they will ask of him.

Tena ko ia kihai i mohio, a i mahi i nga mea e tika ai kia whiua, he torutoru nga whiu mona. Ko te tangata hoki i nui te hoatutanga ki a ia he nui ano hei homaitanga mana; a ko te tangata i nui te tukunga ki a ia, hira noa atu te mea e tonoa i a ia.

49 ` Fire I came to cast to the earth, and what will I if already it was kindled?

I haere mai ahau ki te maka kapura ki te whenua; a ka pehea ahau, mehemea kua ka ke?

50 b ut I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how am I pressed till it may be completed!

Otira he iriiringa toku e iriiria ai ahau; ano toku takarekare kia oti ra ano!

51 ` Think ye that peace I came to give in the earth? no, I say to you, but rather division;

E mea ana ranei koutou, i haere mai ahau ki te homai i te rangimarie ki te whenua? Tenei taku kupu ki a koutou, Kahore; engari i te wehewehe:

52 f or there shall be henceforth five in one house divided -- three against two, and two against three;

Hei nga ra hoki e takoto ake nei ka tokorima i roto i te whare kotahi, a ka tahuri ki a ratou ano, tokotoru ki te tokorua, tokorua ki te tokotoru.

53 a father shall be divided against a son, and a son against a father, a mother against a daughter, and a daughter against a mother, a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.'

Ka tahuri atu te papa ki te tama, te tama ki te papa; te whaea ki te tamahine, te tamahine ki tona whaea; te hungawai wahine ki tana hunaonga wahine, me te hunaonga wahine ki tona hungawai wahine.

54 A nd he said also to the multitudes, `When ye may see the cloud rising from the west, immediately ye say, A shower doth come, and it is so;

A i mea ano ia ki nga mano, Ka kite koutou i te kapua e puta mai ana i te hauauru, na mea tonu ake koutou, He ua te haere mai nei; a ko ia ano ia.

55 a nd when -- a south wind blowing, ye say, that there will be heat, and it is;

Ka kite koutou i te tonga e pupuhi ana, ka mea koutou, Meake ko te werawera; a ko ia ano ia.

56 h ypocrites! the face of the earth and of the heaven ye have known to make proof of, but this time -- how do ye not make proof of ?

E te hunga tinihanga, e matau ana koutou ki te titiro ki te mata o te whenua, o te rangi; he aha koutou te matau ai ki te titiro ki tenei taima?

57 ` And why, also, of yourselves, judge ye not what is righteous?

A he aha koutou te whakaaro noa ake ai i te mea tika?

58 f or, as thou art going away with thy opponent to the ruler, in the way give diligence to be released from him, lest he may drag thee unto the judge, and the judge may deliver thee to the officer, and the officer may cast thee into prison;

I a korua ko tou hoa tauwhainga e haere ana ki te kaiwhakawa, hei te huarahi ano kia kaha te mea kia makere atu ia i a koe: kei toia koe e ia ki te kaiwhakawa, a ka tukua koe e te kaiwhakawa ki te katipa, a ka maka koe e te katipa ki te whare he rehere.

59 I say to thee, thou mayest not come forth thence till even the last mite thou mayest give back.'

Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koe, E kore rawa koe e puta mai i reira, kia poto ra ano nga moni iti rawa te utu e koe.
