WHAKAKITENGA 18 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

Te Horo a Papurōna

1Ā muri iho i ēnei mea ka kite ahau i tētahi atu ana­hera e heke iho ana i te rangi, he mana nui tōna; mārama tonu hoki te ao i tōna korōria.

2He nui hoki tōna reo ki te karanga, ki te mea: “Kua horo, kua horo a Papurōna nui. Kua meinga hei kāinga rēwera, hei whare here­here hoki mō ngā wairua poke katoa, hei whare here­here mō ngā manu poke katoa, mō ngā manu whaka­riha­riha.

3Nā te wāina hoki o te riri o tōna moe­puku i horo ai ngā tauiwi katoa; i moe­puku hoki ngā kīngi o te whenua ki a ia, ā, kua whi­whi nui ngā kai­hoko o te ao i te taonga i te nui o āna mea whaka­ahua­reka.”

4I rongo anō ahau i tētahi atu reo i te rangi, e mea ana,

“Puta mai koutou i roto i a ia,

e tōku iwi, kei uru tahi koutou ki ōna hara,

kei pāngia koutou e ōna whiu.

5Kua tutuki hoki ōna hara ki te rangi,

kua mahara te Atua ki āna mahi hē.

6Hoatu ki a ia tāna i hōmai ai ki a koutou,

taki­rua­tia ngā mea mōna, kia rite ki āna mahi.

Ko te kapu i whaka­kīa e ia

kia rua ā koutou whaka­kī­nga mōna.

7Nā, kia rite ki tāna whaka­nui­nga i a ia,

ki tōna tō­rere­tanga ki āna mea whaka­ahua­reka,

kia pērā anō te mamae me te pōuri e hoatu e koutou ki a ia.

E mea ana hoki ia i tōna ngākau:

‘E noho ana ahau hei kuīni!

Ehara hoki ahau i te pouaru,

e kore anō hoki ahau e kite i te pōuri.’

8Mō konei anō ka tae mai ōna whiu i te rā kotahi,

te mate, te pōuri, te matekai;

ā, ka tahuna ia kia pau rawa i te ahi.

He kaha hoki te Ariki, te Atua, e whaka­wā nei i a ia.”

9Ā, ko ngā kīngi o te ao i moe­puku nei ki a ia, i tōrere ngā­tahi nei ki āna mea whaka­ahua­reka, tērā e tangi ki a ia, e auē ki a ia, ina kite rātou i te paoa o tōna tahu­nga;

10ka tū mai rātou i tawhiti i te wehi ki tōna whaka­mamae, ka mea, “Auē, auē, te pā nui, Papurōna, te pā kaha! Kua tae mai hoki tōu whaka­wā i te hāora kotahi.”

11Ka tangi anō hoki ngā kai­hoko o te whenua, ka auē ki a ia; nō te mea kāhore atu he tangata hei hoko i tā rātou utanga;

12i te utanga o te kōura, o te hiriwa, o te kōhatu utu nui, o te peara, o te rīnena pai, o te pāpura, o te hiraka, o te kahu whero; me ngā rākau taina katoa, me ngā tini oko rei, me ngā tini oko rākau utu nui whaka­hara­hara, oko parāhi, rino, mapere,

13me te hina­mona, me ngā mea kakara, me te hinu kakara, me te para­kihe, me te wāina, me te hinu, me te parāoa pai, me te wīti, me ngā kararehe, me ngā hipi; me te utanga o ngā hōiho, o ngā hāri­ata, o ngā pono­nga; me ngā wairua tāngata.

14Heoi, ko ngā hua i matea nuitia e tōu ngākau kua mawehe atu i a koe, ā, kua mahue hoki koe i ngā mea reka katoa, i ngā mea papai, ā, heoi anō te kite­nga o aua mea e te tangata.

15Ko ngā kai­hoko o ēnei mea, kua whai taonga nei i a ia, ka tū mai rātou i tawhiti i te wehi ki tōna whaka­mamae, me te tangi, me te auē anō rātou,

16me te kī, “Auē, auē, te pā nui, i kākahu­ria ki te rīnena pai, ki te pāpura, ki te whero, i tātai­tia ki te kōura, ki te kōhatu utu nui, ki ngā peara!

17Kotahi tonu hoki te hāora a mōtī rawa iho taua taonga nui.”

Nā, ko ngā ranga­tira kai­puke katoa, ko te hunga katoa e rere ana rā te kai­puke ki ia wāhi, ko ngā kai­whaka­tere kai­puke, me te hunga katoa anō kei te moana ā rātou mahi, tū mai ana rātou i tawhiti,

18me te karanga anō rātou i tō rātou kite­nga i te paoa o tōna tahu­nga, me te kī, “Ko tēhea pā i rite ki tēnei pā nui?”

19Opehia ana hoki e rātou he puehu ki ō rātou māhu­nga, kei te karanga rātou, me te tangi, me te auē, kei te mea, “Auē, auē, te pā nui, i whai taonga ai i ōna utu nui te hunga katoa he kai­puke a rātou i te moana! Kotahi tonu nei hoki te hāora ā mōtī rawa iho!”

20Kia hari ki a ia, e te rangi, e te hunga tapu, e ngā āpō­toro, e ngā poro­piti anō hoki; kua whaka­ritea nei hoki e te Atua tā koutou whaka­wā i a ia!

21Kātahi, ka hāpai­ngia ake e tētahi ana­hera kaha he kāmaka i rite nei ki tētahi kāmaka rahi nō te mira, ā, makā ana e ia ki te moana, me te kī anō ia, “Ka pēnei­tia a Papurōna, te pā nui, ka makā whaka­rere­tia atu, e kore anō hoki e kitea i muri nei.

22Nā, heoi anō, rongo­nga i roto i a koe ki te reo o ngā kai­whaka­tangi hāpa, o ngā kai­whaka­takoto rangi waiata, o ngā kai­whaka­tangi i ngā pūtō­rino, i ngā tētere; e kore anō hoki e kitea i ngā wā i muri nei tētahi kai­mahi o ngā tini mahi i roto i a koe; e kore anō hoki e rangona i ngā wā i muri nei te haruru o te kōhatu mira i roto i a koe.

23E kore anō hoki e whiti i ngā wā i muri nei te mārama o te rama i roto i a koe. E kore anō hoki e rangona i ngā wā i muri nei te reo o te tāne mārena hou, o te wahine mārena hou, i roto i a koe. Ōu kai­hoko­hoko hoki ko ngā tāngata nunui o te ao; nā āu mahi mākutu anō hoki i pōhēhē ai ngā iwi katoa.”

24I kitea anō hoki i roto i a ia ngā toto o ngā poro­piti, o te hunga tapu, o te hunga katoa hoki i whaka­matea ki runga ki te whenua.
