Matthew 10
1 He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
A, ka oti te karanga e ia ana akonga tekau ma rua, ka hoatu ki a ratou he mana hei pei i nga wairua poke, hei whakaora hoki i nga mate katoa me nga turorotanga katoa.
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother; James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
Na ko nga ingoa enei o nga apotoro kotahi tekau ma rua; te tuatahi ko Haimona, e kiia nei ko Pita, raua ko tona teina ko Anaru; ko Hemi tama a Heperi raua ko tona teina ko Hoani;
3 Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, who was also called Thaddaeus;
Ko Piripi raua ko Patoromu; ko Tamati raua ko Matiu pupirikana; ko Hemi tama a Arapiu, ko Tariu;
4 Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
Ko Haimona Kanaani raua ko Hura Ikariote, nana nei ia i tuku.
5 Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Do not go among the Gentiles, and do not enter into any city of the Samaritans.
Ko tenei tekau ma rua i tonoa e Ihu, i ako ia i a ratou, i mea, Kaua e haere ki tetahi ara o nga tauiwi, kaua ano hoki e tomo ki tetahi pa o nga Hamari:
6 Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Engari me haere ki nga hipi ngaro o te whare o Iharaira.
7 As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’
Me kauwhau haere hoki, me ki, Kua tata te rangatiratanga o te rangi.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
Whakaorangia nga turoro, meinga kia ma nga repera, whakaarahia nga tupapaku, peia nga rewera; ka riro noa nei i a koutou, me hoatu noa e koutou.
9 Do not take any gold, silver, or brass in your money belts.
Kaua he koura ma koutou, kaua he hiriwa, kaua he parahi ki roto ki o koutou whitiki;
10 Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
Kaua ano he putea mo te ara; kaua e takiruatia nga koti, kaua he hu, kaua ano he tokotoko; ka ea hoki i te kaimahi tana kai.
11 Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.
A, ka tomo koutou ki tetahi pa, ki tetahi kainga ranei, ui atu, ko wai te tangata pai o reira; a hei reira noho ai a haere noa.
12 As you enter into the household, greet it.
A, no ka tomo ki tetahi whare, me oha atu.
13 If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.
A, ki te pai te whare, kia tau ta koutou rangimarie ki reira; a, ki te kahore e pai, kia hoki ta koutou rangimarie ki a koutou.
14 Whoever does not receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
Ki te kahore hoki tetahi e manako ki a koutou, ki te kore e whakarongo ki a koutou kupu, ka haere koutou ki waho o taua whare, o taua pa ranei, ka whakangahoro i te puehu o o koutou waewae.
15 Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Erangi to te whenua o Horoma raua ko Komora a te ra whakawa e mama i to taua pa.
16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
Nana, ka tonoa nei koutou e ahau ano he hipi ki roto ki nga wuruhi: na, kia rite ki te nakahi te mahara, ki te kukupa hoki te mahaki.
17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
Kia tupato ia i nga tangata: tera hoki koutou e tukua e ratou ki nga runanga, a tera koutou e whiua i roto i o ratou whare karakia;
18 Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
A ka kawea koutou ki nga kawana, ki nga kingi, mo te whakaaro ki ahau, hei mea whakaatu ki a ratou, ki nga tauiwi hoki.
19 But when they deliver you up, do not be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
A, no ka tukua koutou e ratou, kaua e manukanuka ki te pehea, ki te aha, e korero ai koutou; ka hoatu ki a koutou i taua wa ta koutou e korero ai.
20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
Ehara hoki i a koutou nga korero, engari ko te Wairua o to koutou Matua te korero ana i roto i a koutou.
21 “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
Na ka tukua te tuakana e te teina ki te mate, te tama hoki e te papa; ka whakatika nga tamariki ki nga matua, ka mea kia whakamatea.
22 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
A ka kinongia koutou e nga tangata katoa, he mea hoki mo toku ingoa; ko te tangata ia e u ana a taea noatia te mutunga, ka ora ia.
23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.
Na, ki te whakatoia koutou i tenei pa, rere atu ki tetahi: he pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, E kore e poto i a koutou nga pa o Iharaira te haere, ko te Tama a te tangata kua tae mai.
24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
Kahore e nui ake te akonga i tona kaiwhakaako, kahore hoki te pononga e nui ake i tona rangatira.
25 It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
Heoi ma te akonga ko ia kia rite ki tona kaiwhakaako, ma te pononga kia rite ki tona rangatira. Ki te kiia e ratou te rangatira o te whare ko Perehepura, tera noa ake ta ratou mo nga tangata o tona whare.
26 Therefore do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
Na kaua e wehi i a ratou: kahore hoki he mea i hipokina e mahue te hura; he mea ranei i huna e mahue te mohio.
27 What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
Ko taku e korero nei ki a koutou i te pouri, me korero e koutou i te marama: ko ta o koutou taringa e rongo ai, me kauwhau ki runga i nga whare.
28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna (Geenna g1067).
A kaua e wehi i te hunga e whakamate nei i te tinana, a e kore nei e ahei te whakamate i te wairua; engari ia ko ta koutou e wehi ai, ko ia e kaha nei ki te whakangaro i te wairua raua tahi ko te tinana ki roto ki Kehena. (Geenna g1067)
29 “Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
Kahore ianei e hokona nga pihoihoi e rua ki te patene kotahi? a, ki te kahore to koutou Matua e mea, e kore tetahi o raua e taka ki te whenua:
30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Otiia ko nga makawe o o koutou matenga kua oti katoa te tatau.
31 Therefore do not be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
No reira kaua e wehi: erangi ra koutou i nga pihoihoi maha.
32 Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
Na, ki te whakaae tetahi ki ahau i te aroaro o nga tangata, ka whakaaetia ia e ahau i te aroaro o toku Matua i te rangi.
33 But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.
A, ki te whakakahore tetahi i ahau i te aroaro o nga tangata, ka whakakahoretia hoki ia e ahau i te aroaro o toku Matua i te rangi.
34 “Do not think that I came to send peace on the earth. I did not come to send peace, but a sword.
Kei mea i haere mai ahau ki te kawe mai i te rangimarie ki te whenua: kihai ahau i haere mai ki te kawe mai i te rangimarie, engari i te hoari.
35 For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
I haere mai hoki ahau ki te mea i te tangata kia whawhai ki tona papa, i te tamahine ki tona whaea, i te hunaonga wahine ki tona hungawai wahine:
36 A man’s foes will be those of his own household.
A ko o te tangata hoariri ko nga tangata ano o tona whare.
37 He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
Ki te nui ake te aroha o tetahi ki tona papa, whaea ranei, i tona ki ahau, e kore ia e tikangatia maku; ki te nui ake hoki te aroha o tetahi ki tana tama, tamahine ranei, i tona ki ahau, e kore ia e tikangatia maku.
38 He who does not take his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.
Ki te kore hoki tetahi e mau ki tona ripeka, e aru i muri i ahau, e kore ia e tikangatia maku.
39 He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
Ko te tangata i whiwhi ki te ora e mate ano ia: a, kite mate tetahi mona i whakaaro ki ahau, ka whiwhi ano ia ki te ora.
40 “He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.
Ki te manako tetahi ki a koutou, e manako ana ia ki ahau, a, ki te manako tetahi ki ahau, e manako ana ia ki toku kaitono mai.
41 He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
Ki te manako tetahi ki te poropiti i runga i te ingoa o te poropiti, ka riro i a ia te utu o te poropiti; a, ki te manako tetahi ki te tangata tika i runga i te ingoa o te tangata tika, e riro i a ia te utu o te tangata tika.
42 Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”
A, ki te whakainumia e tetahi tetahi o enei mea nonohi, ahakoa kotahi ano te kapu wai matao, i runga i te ingoa o te akonga, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, e kore rawa ia e hapa i tona utu.
