RUKA 17 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

Ngā Hē(Matiu 18.6-7, 21-22; Māka 9.42)

1Nā, ka mea ia ki āna ākonga, “E kore e taea te whaka­kāhore te pu­tanga o ngā take hē; otiia, auē te mate mō te tangata e puta ai!

2He nui te pai ki a ia ki te whaka­tārewa­tia ki tōna kakī te kōhatu mira kāihe, kia makā hoki ia ki te moana, ā, kia kaua e taka i a ia ki te hē tētahi ēnei mea no­nohi.

3Kia tūpato ki a koutou!

“Ki te hara tōu teina ki a koe, rīria; ā, ki te rīpe­netā, murua tōna.

4Ā, ki te whitu ngā hara­nga ki a koe i te rā kotahi, ā, ka whitu ōna hoki­nga mai ki a koe, ā, ka mea, ‘E rīpe­netā ana ahau,’ murua tōna.”

Te Whakapono

5Ā, ka mea ngā āpō­toro ki te Ariki, “Whaka­nuia tō mātou whaka­pono.”

6Nā, ka mea te Ariki, “Ki te mea he whaka­pono tō koutou, me te pua nanī te rahi, ka mea koutou ki tēnei hika­maina, ‘Kia rangā atu koe, kia whaka­tō­kia ki te moana,’ nā, ka rongo ki a koutou.

Te Mahi i Whakaritea mā te Pononga

7“Nā, ko wai o koutou he pono­nga tāna e parau ana, e tiaki ana rānei i ngā hipi, e mea atu ki a ia, i tōna hoki­nga mai i te māra, ‘Haere tonu mai, ka noho ki te kai’?

8Ā, e kore e mea ki a ia, ‘Takā he hapa māku, ka whī­tiki ai i a koe, ka tuari mai ki ahau, kia mutu rā tāku kai, tāku inu; ā muri iho ka kai ai koe, ka inu ai’?

9E whaka­whetai oti ia ki taua pono­nga, mōna i mea i ngā mea i whaka­haua ai ia?

10Wai­hoki ko koutou, ka oti ngā mea katoa i whaka­haua ai koutou, ka kī atu, ‘He pono­nga hua­kore mātou; ko tā mātou i mea ai ko te mea anō i whaka­ritea kia mahia e mātou.’ ”

Ka Whakaorangia e Īhu ngā Tāne Tekau

11Nā, i a rātou e haere ana ki Hiruhārama, ka haere ia rā waenga­nui o Hamaria, o Kariri.

12Ā, i a ia e tomo ana ki tētahi kāinga, kotahi tekau ngā tāngata i tūtaki ki a ia, he repera, nā, ka tū mai rātou i tawhiti.

13Ka karanga, ka mea, “E kara, e Īhu, kia aroha ki a mātou.”

14Ā, i tōna kite­nga atu, ka mea ki a rātou, “Haere, kia kite ngā tohu­nga i a koutou.”

Ā, i a rātou e haere ana, nā kua mā.

15Ā, nō te kite­nga o tētahi o rātou kua ora ia, ka hoki, ā, he rahi tōna reo ki te whaka­korōria i te Atua.

16Ā, takoto tāpapa ana ia ki ōna wae­wae, ka whaka­whetai ki a ia. Ā, nō Hamaria ia.

17Ā, ka oho atu a Īhu, ka mea, “Kīhai rānei te tekau i whaka­ora­ngia? Ā, kei hea ngā toko­iwa?

18Heoi anō, ngā mea i kitea e hoki mai ana ki te hōmai i te korōria ki te Atua, ko tēnei tangata iwi kē.”

19Nā, ka mea ia ki a ia, “Whaka­tika, haere; nā tōu whaka­pono koe i ora ai.”

Te Haerenga mai o te Rangatiratanga(Matiu 24.23-28, 37-41)

20Ā, i te uinga a ngā Parihi ki a ia, ko āhea puta mai ai te ranga­tira­tanga o te Atua, ka whaka­hoki ia ki a rātou, ka mea, “E kore e kitea te pu­tanga mai o te ranga­tira­tanga o te Atua.

21E kore anō rātou e mea, ‘Nā, tēnei!’, ‘Nā, tērā!’ Kei roto hoki i a koutou te ranga­tira­tanga o te Atua.”

22Ā, ka mea ia ki ngā ākonga, “Tērā e tae mai ngā rā e hia­hia ai koutou kia kite i tētahi o ngā rā o te Tama a te tangata, ā, e kore koutou e kite.

23Ā, e mea rātou ki a koutou, ‘Nā, tēnei!’, ‘Nā, tērā!’ Kaua e haere atu, kaua e aru atu.

24Ka rite hoki ki te uira e hiko mai ana i tētahi wāhi i raro o te rangi; ā, tīaho atu ana ki tētahi atu wāhi i raro o te rangi. E pērā anō te Tama a te tangata ā tōna rā.

25Otiia, ko te tikanga tēnei kia maha ngā mamae mōna i mua, kia whaka­kino­ngia anō hoki e tēnei whaka­tupu­ranga.

26Ka rite hoki ki ngā rā i a Noa ngā rā o te Tama a te tangata.

27E kai ana rātou, e inu ana, e mārena ana, e tukua ana ki te mārena, taea noatia te rā i tomo ai a Noa ki te āka, ā, ko te pu­tanga mai o te wai­puke, nā, whaka­ngaro­mia katoa­tia rātou.

28Ka rite anō hoki ki ngā rā i a Rota; e kai ana rātou, e inu ana, e hoko mai ana, e hoko atu ana, e whaka­tō ana, e hanga whare ana.

29Heoi, i te rā i puta mai ai a Rota i Horoma, ka uaina he kāpura, he whānā­riki i te rangi, nā, whaka­ngaro­mia katoa­tia rātou.

30Ka pērā anō ā te rā e whaka­kitea ai te Tama a te tangata.

31“I taua rā, kei runga tētahi i te whare, me ōna taonga hoki i roto i te whare, kaua ia e heke iho ki te tiki i aua mea; ko te tangata hoki i te māra, kaua ia e hoki atu ki ngā mea ō muri.

32Kia mahara ki te wahine a Rota.

33Ki te whai tētahi kia ora ia, ka mate anō ia; ki te mate tētahi, ka ora anō ia.

34Ko tāku kupu tēnei ki a koutou, I taua pō toko­rua i te moenga kotahi; kotahi e tango­hia, kotahi e waiho.

35Toko­rua ngā wāhine e huri ana; kotahi e tango­hia, kotahi e waiho.

36Toko­rua ngā tāngata i te māra; kotahi e tango­hia, kotahi e waiho.”

37Nā, ka whaka­hoki rātou, ka mea ki ia, “Ko hea, e te Ariki?”

Ka mea ia ki a rātou, “Ko te wāhi i te tū­pā­paku, ko reira hui­hui ai ngā ēkara.”
