1 Koriniti 1 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

He Mihi

1Nā Pāora, 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.

12Anei te tikanga o tāku kōrero, kei te kī tēnā o koutou nā, “Nō Pāora 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 Pāora mō koutou? I iriiria rānei koutou i runga i te ingoa o Pāora?

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.”
