NGĀ MAHI 24 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

Te Take ki a Paora

1Nā, ka pahure ngā rā e rima, ka haere atu a Anania, te tohu­nga nui rātou ko ētahi kaumātua, ko tētahi kai­kōrero hoki, ko Tereturu, whaka­kite ai i ngā hē o Paora ki te kāwana.

2Ā, ka oti ia te karanga, ka tīmata a Tereturu te whaka­wā, ka mea:

“I te mea nāu i hua ai te rangi­mārie ki a mātou, he āta ngā­rahu hoki nāu i whaka­tika­tika­ina ai ngā kino ki tēnei iwi.

3Nui atu tā mātou whaka­whetai mō aua mea ka riro mai nei i a mātou, i ngā wā katoa, i ngā wāhi katoa, e Pirika, e te tangata pai rawa.

4Otiia, e kore e nui atu tāku whaka­ware i a koe, koia ka īnoi atu ki a koe kia pai koe ki te whaka­rongo mai ki ētahi kupu toru­toru a mātou.

5I mau hoki i a mātou te korokē nei, he tangata whaka­tūtehu, e whaka­oho ana i ngā Hūrai katoa o te ao, ko ia hoki te tino take o te tītore­hanga ki tā ngā Nahareti.

6I mea hoki ia kia whaka­noa­tia te teme­para: nā ka hopu mātou i a ia, ka mea kia whaka­wā­kia ia ki tā tō mātou ture i whaka­takoto ai.

7Otirā, i puta mai a Raihia, te ranga­tira mano, ā, tango­hia kino­tia atu ana ia i ō mātou ringa.

8Ā, ungā ana ōna kai­whaka­pae kia haere mai ki a koe: māu e ui ki a ia, kia rongo ai koe ki ēnei mea katoa e whaka­wā­kia nei ia e mātou.”

9Ā, i whaka­ae hoki ngā Hūrai ki taua whaka­pae, i mea, “Koia tērā ko aua mea.”

Tā Paora Tohe i mua i a Pirika

10Ā, ka tohu atu te kāwana ki a ia kia kōrero, ka whaka­hokia e Paora,

“E mātau ana ahau, ka maha ōu tau e whaka­wā nei koe i tēnei iwi, koia i pai ai tōku ngākau ki te tohe i te tika o āku mea.

11E takoto kau ana hoki hei mōhio­tanga mōu, kāhore i maha ake i te tekau mā rua ngā rā ōku i haere nei ki Hiruhārama, ki te kara­kia.

12Kīhai anō ahau i mau i a rātou i roto i te teme­para e totohe ana ki tētahi, e mea ana rānei i te mano kia tutū, kāhore i ngā whare kara­kia, kāhore anō hoki i te pā.

13E kore anō e taea e rātou te whaka­tau ki ahau i tōu aro­aro ngā mea e whaka­wā­kia nei ahau e rātou.

14Otirā, me whāki tēnei e ahau ki a koe, ko te Ara e kīa nei e rātou he tītore­hanga, ko tāku tēnā i ahau e kara­kia nei ki te Atua o ōku mātua; e whaka­pono ana hoki ahau ki ngā mea katoa kua oti te whaka­rite i roto i te ture, kua oti hoki te tuhi­tuhi ki tā ngā poro­piti.

15E tū­mana­ko ana ki tā te Atua, ki tā ēnei anō hoki e whaka­ae nei, arā tēnei ake ka ara te hunga mate, ngā tāngata tika, ngā tāngata hē.

16Tēnei anō tāku e whai nei, kia hara­kore tonu tōku hine­ngaro i te aro­aro o te Atua, o ngā tāngata.

17“Nā, muri iho i ngā tau e maha, ka tae mai ahau ki te kawe mai i ngā mea ata­whai rawa­kore ki tōku iwi, me ngā whaka­here.

18I kitea ahau i reira e rātou, e purea ana i roto i te teme­para, kāhore he hui­hui, kāhore he nga­ngau.

19Tērā anō rā ētahi Hūrai nō Āhia; ko te tikanga kia haere mai rātou ki a koe ki te whaka­wā, ki te mea he mea tā rātou mōku.

20Tēnei rānei mā ēnei tāngata tonu e kōrero, me i kitea e rātou he hē tōku, i ahau e tū ana i mua i te rū­nanga,

21ko taua kupu kotahi pea i karanga ai ahau, i ahau e tū ana i roto i a rātou, ‘Ko te aranga o te hunga mate te mea e whaka­wā­kia nei ahau e koutou ināia­nei.’ ”

22Otirā, i te mea he nui atu tōna mōhio ki taua Ritenga, ka ungā rātou e Pirika, ka mea ia, “Kia tae mai a Raihia, te ranga­tira mano, ka tino rapu ahau ki te tikanga o ā koutou mea.”

23Nā, ka mea ia ki te kene­turio kia tiaki­na a Paora, kia waiho noa anō ia, kia kaua e rīria ōna hoa ina mahi ki a ia.

Ko Paora i te Aroaro o Pirikia rāua ko Ruhuhira

24Nā, muri iho i ētahi rā ka tae mai a Pirika rāua ko tāna wahine ko Ruruhira, he Hūrai, ka mea ia kia tīkina atu a Paora, ā, ka whaka­rongo ki a ia ki te whaka­pono ki a te Karaiti.

25Ā, i a ia e kōrero ana ki ngā mea o te tika, ki te hia­hia kia pēhia, ki te whaka­wā­kanga kei te haere mai, ka wiri a Pirika, ka mea, “Haere āia­nei. Kia wātea ahau, ka karanga atu ai anō i a koe.”

26Tohu noa hoki ka hoatu ki a ia he moni e Paora; koia i hono ai te tiki atu i a ia, te kōrero ki a ia.

27Otirā, ka pahure ngā tau e rua, ka whaka­kapia a Pirika e Porohia Petuha, ā, i tōna hia­hia ki te whaka­mānawa­reka i ngā Hūrai, ka waiho e Pirika a Paora kia here ana.
