1 KORINITI 1 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

He Mihi

1Nā Paora, i pai nei te Atua kia karanga­tia hei āpō­toro mā Īhu Karaiti, nā te teina hoki, nā Hotene –

2Ki te hāhi a te Atua i Koriniti, ki te hunga kua oti te whaka­tapu i roto i a Karaiti Īhu, kua karanga­tia hei hunga tapu, rātou ko te hunga katoa i ngā wāhi katoa e karanga ana ki te ingoa o tō tātou Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti, o tō rātou Ariki, o tō tātou:

3Kia tau ki a koutou te aroha noa me te rangi­mārie, he mea nā te Atua, nā tō tātou Matua, nā te Ariki hoki, nā Īhu Karaiti.

He Manaakitanga i roto i a te Karaiti

4He whaka­whetai tonu tāku mahi ki tōku Atua mō koutou, mō te aroha noa o te Atua kua hōmai nei ki a koutou i roto i a Karaiti Īhu;

5kua meinga hoki kia hua ngā mea katoa mā koutou i roto i a ia, te whaka­puaki kōrero, te mātau­ranga;

6pēnā hoki me te whaka­atu­ranga i a te Karaiti kua ū nā i roto i a koutou.

7I kore ai koutou e hapa i tētahi mea hōmai; i a koutou e tatari nā ki te whaka­kite­nga mai o tō tātou Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti.

8Māna hoki koutou e whakaū ā taea noatia te mutu­nga, kia kore ai koutou e eke­ngia e te kupu i te rā o tō tātou Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti.

9He pono te Atua, nāna nei koutou i karanga kia uru tahi ki tāna Tama, ki a Īhu Karaiti, ki tō tātou Ariki.

Wehenga i roto i te Hāhi

10Nā, he tohe tēnei nāku ki a koutou, e ōku tēina, i runga i te ingoa o tō tātou Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti, kia kotahi tā koutou kōrero katoa, ā, kia kaua he wehe­wehe­nga i roto i a koutou; engari, kia tui­tuia koutou i runga i te ngākau kotahi, i te whaka­aro kotahi.

11Kua oti hoki koutou te tohu­tohu mai, e ōku tēina, e te hunga o te whare o Koroi, tēnā ngā tau­tohe­tohe kei roto i a koutou.

12Ānei te tikanga o tāku kōrero, kei te kī tēnā o koutou nā, “Nō Paora ahau,” ā, “Nō Aporo ahau,” ā, “Ko ahau nō Kipa. Ko ahau nō te Karaiti.”

13Kua oti koia a te Karaiti te wāhi? I rīpeka­tia rānei a Paora mō koutou? I iri­iria rānei koutou i runga i te ingoa o Paora?

14E whaka­whetai ana ahau ki te Atua, mōku kīhai i iri­iri i tētahi o koutou, ko Kirihipu anake rāua ko Kaiu;

15kei waiho e te tangata hei kōrero, nāku koutou i iri­iri i runga i tōku ingoa.

16(Nāku anō i iri­iri ngā tāngata o te whare o Tepana; i kō ake, kāhore ahau i te mahara ki tāku iri­iri­nga i tētahi atu.)

17Kīhai hoki ahau i tonoa e te Karaiti ki te iri­iri, engari, ki te kauwhau i te rongo­pai; ehara i te mea i runga i te mōhio ki ngā kupu, kei whaka­kāhore­tia te rīpeka o te Karaiti.

Ko te Karaiti te Mana me te Mātauranga o te Atua

18Ko te kōrero hoki o te rīpeka ki te hunga e whaka­ngaro­mia ana he mea wawau; ki a tātou ia, ki te hunga e whaka­ora­ngia ana, ko te kaha tērā o te Atua.

19Ka oti hoki te tuhi­tuhi;

“Ka ngaro i ahau te whaka­aro nui o te hunga whaka­aro,

ka kore hoki i ahau te mahara o te hunga mahara.”

20Kei hea te tangata whaka­aro? Kei hea te kara­ipi? Kei hea te tangata tohe o tēnei ao? Kāhore anō koia i whaka­kūware­tia e te Atua te whaka­aro nui o tēnei ao?

21I te mea hoki i runga i tō te Atua whaka­aro nui, kīhai ngā whaka­aro nui o te ao i mōhio ki te Atua. Nā, ka pai te Atua kia meinga te kūware o te kupu kauwhau hei whaka­ora i te hunga e whaka­pono ana.

22Inā hoki ko tā ngā Hūrai he tono tohu, ko tā ngā Kariki he rapu whaka­aro nui;

23ko tā mātou ia he kauwhau i a te Karaiti i rīpeka­tia, he tūtuki­tanga wae­wae ki ngā Hūrai, he mea kūware ki ngā Kariki;

24ki te hunga ia e karanga­tia ana, ahakoa Hūrai, ahakoa Kariki, ko te Karaiti, ko te kaha o te Atua, ko te whaka­aro mōhio o te Atua.

25Nō te mea he kūware nō te Atua nui atu te mōhio i ngā tāngata; he ngoi­kore nō te Atua kaha atu i ngā tāngata.

26Ti­tiro oti ki tō koutou karanga­tanga, e ōku tēina, kīhai i toko­maha te hunga whaka­aro o te wāhi ki te kiko­kiko, kīhai i toko­maha te hunga nunui, kīhai i toko­maha ngā ranga­tira, e karanga­tia ana.

27Engari, i whiri­whiria e te Atua ko ngā mea kūware o te ao, hei mea e whaka­mā ai te hunga whaka­aro; i whiri­whiria anō e te Atua ko ngā mea ngoi­kore o te ao, hei mea e whaka­mā ai ngā mea kaha.

28Ko ngā mea ware o te ao, ko ngā mea e whaka­hāwea­tia ana, ko ēnā i whiri­whiria e te Atua, āe, ko ngā mea kāhore noa iho, kia whaka­kāhore­tia ai e ia ngā tino mea ake;

29kia kore ai tētahi kiko­kiko e whaka­mana­mana i te aro­aro o te Atua.

30Nāna hoki koutou i roto i a Karaiti Īhu, kua meinga nei ia hei take whaka­aro nui mō tātou, he mea nā te Atua, hei tika, hei whaka­tapu, hei hoko.

31Kia rite ai ki te mea kua oti te tuhi­tuhi, “Ki te whaka­mana­mana tētahi, me whaka­mana­mana ia ki te Ariki.”
