NGĀ MAHI 25 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

Ka Īnoi a Paora ki te Emepara

1Nō te taenga mai o Petuha ki te kāwana­tanga, ka toru ngā rā, ka haere atu ia i Hiha­ria ki Hiruhārama.

2Nā, ka kōrero te tohu­nga nui me ngā ranga­tira o ngā Hūrai ki a ia mō Paora, ka tohe ki a ia,

3kia whaka­ae­tia tā rātou mōna, kia tīkina atu ia ki Hiruhārama, he whanga hoki tō rātou mōna kia whaka­matea ki te ara.

4Otirā, ka whaka­hokia e Petuha, kei Hiha­ria a Paora e pupuri ana, ā, tērā e hohoro tōna haere ki reira.

5I mea anō ia, “Me haere tahi anō i ahau ki raro ngā mea ō koutou e whai mana ana, ki te whaka­wā i taua tangata, ki te mea he kino tōna.”

6Ā, ka noho ia i a rātou mō ngā rā e waru, nga­huru rānei, nā, ka haere ki Hiha­ria; ao ake te rā ka noho ki te nohoa­nga whaka­wā, ā, ka mea kia āra­hina mai a Paora.

7Ā, nō tōna taenga atu, e tū ana tērā ngā Hūrai i haere mai i Hiruhārama, he maha, he nui ngā hē i whaka­pā­ngia e rātou ki a Paora; heoi kīhai i ū tā rātou.

8Ā, ka utua e Paora, “Kāhore rawa ōku hara ki te ture a ngā Hūrai, kāhore hoki ki te teme­para, kāhore anō ki a Hīhā.”

9Heoi, ka mea a Petuha ki a Paora, i tōna hia­hia kia pai­ngia e ngā Hūrai, “E pai ana rānei koe kia haere ki Hiruhārama, ki reira whaka­wā­kia ai mō ēnei mea ki tōku aro­aro?”

10Anō rā ko Paora, “E tū ana ahau ki te nohoa­nga whaka­wā o Hīhā, hei reira tonu ahau whaka­wā­kia ai; kāhore ōku hē ki ngā Hūrai, kua tino kitea nā hoki e koe.

11Me he hē tōku, kua meinga rānei e ahau tētahi mea e tika ai te mate, e kore ahau e kino kia mate; tēnā ko tēnei he teka ngā mea e whaka­pā­ngia nei e rātou ki ahau, e kore e āhei kia tukua ahau e tētahi ki a rātou. He karanga tēnei nāku ki a Hīhā”.

12Nā, ka kōrero­rero a Petuha ki te rū­nanga, ā, ka mea, “Kua karanga koe ki a Hīhā; nā me haere koe ki a Hīhā.”

Ko Paora i te Aroaro o Akaripa rāua ko Pereniki

13Ā muri iho i ētahi rā, ka tae atu a Kīngi Akaripa, rāua ko Pereniki ki Hiha­ria, ā, ka oha ki a Petuha.

14Ā, ka pō maha rāua e noho ana i reira, ka kōrero­tia e Petuha ki te kīngi te take mō Paora, ka mea, “Tēnei tētahi tangata i waiho iho e Pirika e here ana.

15Ā, i ahau i Hiruhārama, ka kōrero­tia mai ia ki ahau e ngā tohu­nga nui, e ngā kaumātua o ngā Hūrai, ka tono rātou kia whaka­wā­kia ia.

16Nā, ko tāku whaka­hoki­nga atu ki a rātou, ‘Ehara i te rite­nga nā ngā tāngata o Roma kia tukua he tangata kia mate i te mea kīanō i tū­ta­taki noa te tangata e whaka­wā­kia ana ki ngā kai­whaka­pae, i whai wāhi rānei ki te whaka­hoki kupu ki te kupu whaka­wā mōna.’

17Nō reira, i tō rātou mine­nga mai ki konei, kīhai ahau i whaka­roa; ao ake te rā ka noho ahau ki te nohoa­nga whaka­wā, ka mea kia āra­hina mai taua tangata.

18Ā, i te tū­ranga o ngā kai­whaka­pae, kīhai tētahi hē o āku i whaka­aro ai i kōrero­tia e rātou mōna.

19Heoi, he kupu tau­tohe­tohe nō tā rātou kara­kia tā rātou i mea ai ki a ia, ko tētahi Īhu anō i mate, e kīa ana hoki e Paora kei te ora.

20Heoi, pōhewa noa iho ahau ki taua tau­tohe, ka mea hoki me kore ia e pai kia haere ki Hiruhārama, ki reira whaka­wā­kia ai mō aua mea.

21Nō te karanga­tanga a Paora kia waiho ia kia whaka­rangona tāna e te eme­para, ka whaka­haua e ahau kia puri­tia ia, kia tukua rā anō ia e ahau ki a Hīhā.”

22Ka mea a Akaripa ki a Petuha, “E hia­hia ana anō ahau kia rongo i taua tangata.”

Ka mea ia, “Ko āpōpō koe rongo ai ki a ia.”

23Heoi, i te aonga ake, ka tae atu a Akaripa rāua ko Pereniki, me ngā whaka­pai­pai maha, ā, tomo ana ki te whare whaka­rongo, rātou ko ngā ranga­tira mano, ko ngā tāngata nunui o te pā, ā, ka whaka­haua e Petuha, ka mauria mai a Paora.

24Nā, ka mea a Petuha, “E Kīngi Akaripa, e ngā tāngata katoa hoki e noho nei tātou, ka kite koutou i tēnei tangata, i tohe mai ai ki ahau te hui­hui katoa o ngā Hūrai i Hiruhārama, i konei anō hoki, i karanga ai, ehara rawa i te tika kia waiho ia kia ora ana.

25Otirā, i kite ahau, kāhore āna mahi e tika ai te mate; ā, i te mea nāna anō i karanga ki te eme­para, ka mea ahau kia ungā atu ia.

26Kāhore ia āku tino mea e tuhi­tuhi atu ai ahau mōna ki tōku ariki. Koia ahau ka ārahi mai nei i a ia ki a koutou, ki a koe rawa anō, e Kīngi Akaripa, kia whai mea ai ahau hei tuhi­tuhi­nga atu, ua mutu te uiui.

27Ki tāku hoki he mea hē kia ungā atu he here­here, ā, kia kaua hoki e kōrero­tia te mea i whaka­wā­kia ai ia.”
