EPEHA 2 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

I te Mate ki te Ora

1Me koutou anō nāna i whaka­ora, i te mea he tū­pā­paku i ngā hē, i ngā hara,

2i hāere­erea rā e koutou i mua i runga i tā tēnei ao tikanga, i tā te ranga­tira o te kaha o ngā kapua, o te wairua e mahi nei ināia­nei i roto i ngā tama a te tutū.

3Arā, i ērā hoa o tātou katoa i mua, i a tātou e noho ana i runga i ngā hia­hia o tō tātou kiko­kiko, e mahi ana i ngā mea e pai­ngia ana e te kiko­kiko, e te whaka­aro, i te māori­tanga hoki he tama­riki nā te riri, he pērā me ērā atu.

4Ko tā te Atua ia tēnei, ranea rawa hoki tāna mahi tohu, nui atu tōna aroha i aroha­ina mai ai tātou e ia,

5i te mea he tū­pā­paku tātou i ngā hē, whaka­ora­ngia ngā­tahi­tia ana tātou e ia me te Karaiti, he aroha noa i whaka­ora­ngia ai koutou;

6ā, whaka­ara­hia ngā­tahi­tia ana e ia, whaka­noho­ia ngā­tahi­tia ana ki ngā wāhi o te rangi i roto i a Karaiti Īhu;

7kia whaka­kitea ai e ia i ngā wā e haere ake nei te hira o te taonga a tōna aroha noa, i a ia ka manaaki i a tātou i roto i a Karaiti Īhu.

8Nā te aroha noa hoki koutou i whaka­ora­ngia ai i runga i te whaka­pono; ehara anō hoki tēnei i te mea nō koutou; he mea hōmai noa nā te Atua.

9Ehara i ngā mahi, kei whaka­mana­mana te tangata.

10He mahi­nga hoki tātou nāna, he mea hanga i roto i a Karaiti Īhu mō ngā mahi pai i whaka­ritea e te Atua i mua hei hāere­ere­nga mō tātou.

Kotahi i roto i te Karaiti

11Nā, kia mahara he tauiwi koutou i mua nō te wāhi ki te kiko­kiko, e kīa ana hoki ko “te Kotinga­kore” e tēnei e kīa nei ko “te Kotinga” – arā tō te kiko­kiko, he mea nā te ringa –

12i taua wā he mea motu kē atu koutou i a te Karaiti, ehara i te tangata whenua nō Īharaira, he tangata kē ki ngā kawe­nata o te mea i whaka­aria mai i mua, kāhore he tūmanako­tanga atu, he hunga Atua­kore i te ao.

13Nā, ināia­nei i roto i a Karaiti Īhu, ko koutou, ko te hunga i tawhiti i mua, kua meinga e ngā toto o te Karaiti kia tata.

14Ko ia hoki tō tātou maunga rongo, nāna i mea ngā mea e rua kia kotahi, whaka­horoa iho e ia te pātū e ārai ana i waenga.

15Whaka­kāhore­tia ana hoki e ia ki tōna kiko­kiko te mauā­hara, arā te ture i ngā kupu ako, i ngā tikanga; kia hangā ai i roto i a ia te toko­rua hei tangata kotahi, hei tangata hou, kia mau ai te rongo i a ia;

16kia houhia ai anō hoki e ia te rongo a te toko­rua ki te Atua i roto i te tinana kotahi, he mea­tanga nā te rīpeka, mā reira hoki e whaka­mate te mauā­hara.

17Ā, haere mai ana ia, kauwhau ana i te maunga rongo ki a koutou i tawhiti, ki te hunga hoki e tata ana.

18Nāna hoki tātou, te toko­rua nei, i whai ta­ta­nga atu ai i roto i te Wairua kotahi ki te Matua.

19Nā reira, ehara koutou i te tāngata kē, i te manene rānei; engari he tāngata whenua koutou tahi ko te hunga tapu, nō te whare hoki o te Atua;

20he mea hanga ki runga ki te tū­ranga o ngā āpō­toro rātou ko ngā poro­piti, ko Īhu Karaiti anō hei tino kāmaka mō te koko­nga;

21kei roto nei i a ia tēnā whare, tēnā whare, he mea āta tātai mārie, ka tupu hei whare tapu i roto i te Ariki;

22me koutou anō e hangā tahi­tia ana i roto i a ia, hei nohoa­nga mō te Atua, he mea nā te Wairua.
