NGĀ MAHI 8 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

1Ā, i reira a Haora e whaka­ae ana ki tōna mate­nga.

Te Whakatoinga o Hoara i te Hāhi

Nā, i taua rā ka oho he whaka­toi­nga nui ki te hāhi i Hiruhārama, ā, marara katoa ana rātou, puta noa i ngā wāhi o Hūria, o Hamaria; kāhore ia ngā āpō­toro.

2Ā, nā te hunga whaka­aro a Tepene i tanu, ā, he nui tā rātou tangi­hanga mōna.

3Ko Haora ia, tā­horoa ana e ia te hāhi, tomo ana ki tēnā whare, ki tēnā whare, tōia atu ana ngā tāne me ngā wāhine, hoatu ana ki roto ki te whare here­here.

Ka Kauwhautia te Rongopai ki Hamaria

4Nō reira ko rātou tonu, ko ngā mea i whaka­marara­tia rā, i hāere­ere ki te kauwhau i te kupu.

5Nā, ko Piripi i heke atu ki te pā o Hamaria, ā, kauwhau ana i a te Karaiti ki a rātou.

6Ā, kotahi tonu te whaka­aro o ngā mano ki te whaka­rongo ki ngā mea i kōrero ai a Piripi, i a rātou e rongo ana, e kite ana i ngā tohu i mea ai ia.

7I puta mai hoki ngā wairua poke i roto i te tini o ngā mea e nohoia ana, he nui te reo ki te karanga. He toko­maha anō ngā pararūtiki, ngā kopa i whaka­ora­ngia.

8Ā, nui atu te hari o taua pā.

9Nā, i reira tētahi tangata, ko Haimona te ingoa, he mahi mākutu tāna i mua atu i roto i taua pā, ā, mīharo ana te iwi o Hamaria, i mea hoki ia i a ia he tangata nui.

10I whaka­rongo katoa hoki rātou ki a ia te iti me te rahi, i mea, “Ko taua kaha o te Atua tēnei tangata, e kīa nei ko te Nui.”

11Ā, i whaka­rongo rātou ki a ia, nō te mea kua roa kē rātou e mīharo ana ki āna mahi mākutu.

12Ā, nō rātou ka whaka­pono ki a Piripi; e kauwhau ana i te rongo­pai o te ranga­tira­tanga o te Atua, i te ingoa hoki o Īhu Karaiti, ka iri­iria rātou, ngā tāne me ngā wāhine.

13Ko Haimona tonu tētahi i whaka­pono. Ā, ka iri­iria ka piri tahi ki a Piripi; ā, nō tōna kite­nga i ngā tohu me ngā mere­kara nunui i mahia, ka mīharo.

14Ā, i te rongo­nga o ngā āpō­toro i Hiruhārama kua tango a Hamaria i te kupu a te Atua, ka tonoa atu e rātou a Pita rāua ko Hoani ki a rātou.

15Nō tō rāua taenga iho, ka īnoi mō rātou, kia riro te Wairua Tapu i a rātou.

16Kāhore anō hoki ia i tau noa ki tētahi o rātou; he mea iri­iri kau i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki, o Īhu.

17Me i reira ka whaka­pā­kia iho ō rātou ringa ki a rātou, ā, ka riro mai te Wairua Tapu i a rātou.

18Ā, nō te kite­nga o Haimona, nā te whaka­pā­nga iho o ngā ringa o ngā āpō­toro i hōmai ai te Wairua Tapu, ka mea ki te hoatu moni ki a rāua,

19ka kī, “Hōmai hoki ki ahau tēnei mana, kia riro ai te Wairua Tapu i te tangata e whaka­pā­kia iho ai e ahau ōku ringa.”

20Nā, ko te mea­tanga a Pita ki a ia, “Kia pirau ngā­tahi kōrua ko tāu moni, ina koe ka whaka­aro mā te moni ka whi­whi ai ki te mea hōmai noa a te Atua!

21Kāhore he wāhi māu, kāhore he taunga mōu i tēnei mea; kāhore hoki i tika tōu ngākau i te aro­aro o te Atua.

22Nā, rīpenetā­tia tēnei kino ōu, ā, īnoi ki te Atua, me kore noa e murua te whaka­aro o tōu ngākau.

23Kua kite hoki ahau i a koe, kei roto koe i te au kawa, kei te here o te kino.”

24Nā, ka whaka­hoki a Haimona, ka mea, “Mā kōrua e īnoi mōku ki te Ariki, kei pā ki ahau tētahi o ngā mea kua kōrero­tia mai nā e kōrua.”

25Ā, ka mutu tā rāua whaka­atu, tā rāua kauwhau i te kupu a te Ariki, ka hoki ki Hiruhārama, he maha hoki ngā kāinga o ngā Hamari i kauwhau­tia ai e rāua te rongo­pai.

Ko Piripi rāua ko te Āpiha Etiopiana

26Nā, ka kōrero tētahi ana­hera a te Ariki ki a Piripi, ka mea, “Whaka­tika, haere ki te tonga, ki te ara e heke atu ana i Hiruhārama ki Kaha”; he koraha tērā.

27Whaka­tika ana ia, haere ana. Nā, ko tētahi tangata o Etiopia, he ūnaka, he tangata nui nā Kanarahi, kuīni o ngā Etiopiana, ko te kai­tiaki ia o āna taonga katoa, i haere ki Hiruhārama ki te kara­kia;

28ā, e hoki mai ana, e noho ana i runga i tōna hāri­ata, e kōrero ana i a Ihāia poro­piti.

29Nā, ka mea te Wairua ki a Piripi, “Whaka­tata atu, ka haere atu koe ki te hāri­ata rā.”

30Kātahi a Piripi ka oma atu ki a ia, ka rongo i a ia e kōrero ana i a Ihāia poro­piti, ka mea atu, “E mātau ana rānei koe ki tāu e kōrero nā?”

31Anō rā ko ia, “Me pēhea koia, ki te kore tētahi hei ara­taki i ahau?” Nā, ka mea ia ki a Piripi kia eke ki runga kia noho tahi me ia.

32Nā, ko te wāhi o te karaipi­ture e kōrero nei ia, ko tēnei,

“I āra­hina ia ānō he hipi kia patua;

ā, me te reme e wa­hangū ana i te aro­aro o tōna kai­kuti­kuti,

kīhai i kuihi tōna waha.

33I tōna whaka­iti­nga i whaka­korea he whaka­wā mōna.

Mā wai hoki tōna whaka­tupu­ranga e kōrero?

Kua tango­hia atu nei tōna ora i te whenua.”

34Nā, ka whaka­hoki te ūnaka ki a Piripi, ka mea, “Tēnā koa, mō wai tēnei kōrero a te poro­piti? Mōna ake anō, mō tētahi atu rānei?”

35Nā, ka puaki te māngai o Piripi, ā, tīmata mai i taua karaipi­ture, kauwhau­tia ana e ia a Īhu ki a ia.

36Ā, i a rāua e haere ana i te ara, ka tae atu rāua ki tētahi wai, ka mea te ūnaka, “Nā, he wai tēnei! He aha te mea e kore ai ahau e iri­iria?”

37Mea atu ana a Piripi, “Ki te whaka­pono tōu ngākau katoa, e āhei anō koe.” Nā, ka whaka­hoki ia, ka mea, “E whaka­pono ana ahau ko Īhu Karaiti te Tama a te Atua.”

38Kātahi ia ka whaka­hau i te hāri­ata kia tū; ka haere atu rāua toko­rua ki roto i te wai, a Piripi rāua ko te ūnaka; ā, iri­iria ana ia e ia.

39Ā, i tō rāua pu­tanga ake i te wai, kā­hakina atu ana a Piripi e te Wairua o te Ariki; ā, mutu tonu te kite­nga atu o te ūnaka i a ia, heoi, haere hari atu ana ia i tōna ara.

40Ko Piripi ia i kitea ki Ahota; ā, i a ia e haere ana, kauwhau­tia ana e ia te rongo­pai ki ngā pā katoa, ā tae noa ia ki Hiha­ria.
