< Hoani 8 >

1 Ko Ihu i haere ki Maunga Oriwa.
but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2 A i te atatu ka hoki ano ia ki te temepara, a tae katoa ana te iwi ki a ia; na ka noho ia, ka whakaako i a ratou.
Now very early in the morning, he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them.
3 Katahi ka arahina mai ki a ia e nga karaipi ratou ko nga Parihi tetahi wahine i hopukia e puremu ana; a whakaturia ana ki waenganui.
Then the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
4 Ka mea ratou ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, i hopukia putia te wahine nei e puremu ana.
they said to him, "Teacher, we found this woman in adultery, in the very act.
5 I whakahau a Mohi ki a matou i roto i te ture, kia akina nga penei ki te kohatu: tena koa tau ki?
Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such. So what do you say?"
6 I penei ai ratou he whakamatautau mona, kia whai take ai ratou e whakapangia ai he he ki a ia. Ka piko a Ihu, a tuhituhi ana tona ringa ki te whenua.
Now they said this to test him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger.
7 A ka tohe tonu ratou ki te ui ki a ia, ka whakatika ake ia, ka mea ki a ratou, Ko te tangata o koutou kahore ona hara, mana te kohatu matamua e aki ki a ia.
But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her."
8 Na ka piko ano ia, ka tuhituhi ki te whenua.
Again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
9 A, i to ratou rongonga, ka haere takitahi atu ki waho, na nga kaumatua i timata, a poto noa o muri rawa: a ko Ihu anake i mahue, me te wahine e tu ana i waenganui.
But when they heard it, they went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last, and he was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle.
10 A, ko te marangatanga ake o Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, E tai, kei hea ratou? kahore he tangata i whakatatau he ki a koe?
Then Jesus, standing up, said to her, "Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?"
11 Ano ra ko tera, Kahore, e te Ariki. Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Kahore ano hoki ahau e whakatau i te he ki a koe: haere, kati te hara.
And she said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go, and sin no more."
12 I ki atu ano a Ihu ki a ratou, i mea, Ko ahau te whakamarama o te ao: ki te aru tetahi i ahau, e kore ia e haere i te pouri, engari ka whiwhi ki te marama o te ora.
Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life."
13 Na ka mea nga Parihi ki a ia, Ko koe ano tou kaiwhakaatu; ehara tau i te whakaatu pono.
The Pharisees therefore said to him, "You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid."
14 Ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Ahakoa ko ahau ano toku kaiwhakaatu, he pono taku whakaatu: no te mea e matau ana ahau ki te wahi i haere mai ai ahau, ki te wahi hoki e haere atu nei ahau; ko koutou ia kahore e matau ki te wahi i haere ma i ai ahau, ki te wahi ano e haere atu nei ahau.
Jesus answered them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you do not know where I came from, or where I am going.
15 Na te kikokiko ta koutou tikanga whakawa; e kore ahau e whakawa i tetahi.
You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
16 A ki te whakawa ahau, he tika taku whakawa; ehara hoki i te mea ko ahau anake, engari ko maua ko te Matua nana nei ahau i tono mai.
Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.
17 Ae, kua oti ano te tuhituhi i roto i to koutou ture, He pono te whakaatu a nga tangata tokorua.
It's also written in your Law that the testimony of two people is valid.
18 Ko ahau tenei hei kaiwhakaatu moku ano, hei kaiwhakaatu ano moku te Matua, nana nei ahau i tono mai.
I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me."
19 Na ka mea ratou ki a ia, Kei hea tou Matua? Ka whakahokia e Ihu, Kahore koutou e matau ki ahau, kahore ano ki toku Matua: me i matau koutou ki ahau, kua matau ano ki toku Matua.
They said therefore to him, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me, nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also."
20 I korerotia enei kupu e Ihu i te whare takotoranga taonga, i a ia e whakaako ana i roto i te temepara: a kahore tetahi i hopu i a ia; kiano hoki tona haora i taka noa.
Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
21 Me i reira ka ki atu ano a Ihu ki a ratou, E haere atu ana ahau, a tera koutou e rapu i ahau, e mate ano hoki i roto i to koutou hara: e kore koutou e ahei te haere ake ki te wahi e haere ai ahau.
Jesus said therefore again to them, "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you cannot come."
22 Na ka mea nga Hurai, E whakamate oti ia i a ia ano? ina ia ka mea, E kore koutou e ahei te haere ake ki te wahi e haere ai ahau.
The Jewish leaders therefore said, "Will he kill himself, that he says, 'Where I am going, you cannot come?'"
23 Ano ra ko ia ki a ratou, Na raro nei koutou; no runga ahau: no tenei ao koutou; ehara ahau i tenei ao.
He said to them, "You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.
24 Koia ahau i mea ai ki a koutou, E mate koutou i roto i o koutou hara: ki te kore hoki koutou e whakapono ko ahau ia, e mate koutou i roto i o koutou hara.
I said therefore to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins."
25 Katahi ratou ka mea ki a ia, Ko wai koe? Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Ko taku ano i korero ai ki a koutou i te timatanga.
They said therefore to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, "Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
26 He maha aku mea e korero ai, e whakawa ai mo koutou: otira e pono ana toku kaitono mai; e korerotia ana hoki e ahau ki te ao nga mea i rongo ai ahau ki a ia.
I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world."
27 Kihai ratou i matau ko te Matua tana i korero ai ki a ratou.
They did not understand that he spoke to them about the Father.
28 Katahi a Ihu ka mea ki a ratou, Kia oti te Tama a te tangata te whakairi e koutou, ko reira koutou matau ai ko ahau ia, a e kore e meatia tetahi mea e ahau ake; engari ko a toku Matua i whakaako mai ai ki ahau, ko enei aku e korero nei.
Jesus therefore said to them, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I say these things.
29 Kei ahau nei ano toku kaitono mai: kihai ahau i waiho e te Matua ko ahau anake; no te mea e mahi tonu ana ahau i nga mea e paingia ana e ia.
He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn't left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him."
30 Na i a ia e korero ana i enei mea, he tokomaha i whakapono ki a ia.
As he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31 Me i reira ka mea a Ihu ki nga Hurai i whakapono ki a ia, Ki te mau tonu koutou ki taku kupu, he tino akonga koutou naku;
Jesus therefore said to those Judeans who had believed him, "If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.
32 A e matau koutou ki te pono, ma te pono ano koutou ka rangatira ai.
You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
33 Ka whakahokia e ratou ki a ia, He whanau matou na Aperahama, kahore matou i waiho noa hei pononga ma tetahi tangata: he aha tau e mea, ka rangatira koutou?
They answered him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can you say, 'You will be made free?'"
34 Ka whakahokia e Ihu ki a ratou, He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, He pononga na te hara nga kaimahi katoa i te hara.
Jesus answered them, "Truly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the slave of sin.
35 E kore te pononga e noho tonu i te whare: ko te Tama ia e noho tonu ana. (aiōn g165)
A slave does not live in the house forever. A son remains forever. (aiōn g165)
36 Na i te mea ka whakarangatiratia koutou e te Tama, he tino rangatira koutou.
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
37 E matau ana ano ahau, he whanau koutou na Aperahama; heoi e whai ana koutou kia whakamatea ahau, he kore hoki no taku kupu e mau i roto i a koutou.
I know that you are Abraham's descendants, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.
38 E korerotia ana e ahau taku i kite ai ki toku Matua: e mahia ana e koutou ta koutou i kite ai ki to koutou matua.
I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have heard from your father."
39 Ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea ki a ia, Ko Aperahama to matou matua, Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Me he tamariki koutou na Aperahama, kua mahia e koutou nga mahi a Aperahama.
They answered him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.
40 Tena ko tenei e whai ana koutou kia whakamatea ahau, te tangata nana i korero te pono ki a koutou, taku hoki i rongo ai ki te Atua: kihai a Aperahama i pena.
But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.
41 E mahi ana koutou i nga mahi a to koutou matua. Katahi ratou ka mea ki a ia, Kihai matou i whanau poriro; kotahi to matou Matua, ko te Atua.
You do the works of your father." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God."
42 Ka mea ano a Ihu ki a ratou, Mehemea ko te Atua to koutou Matua, kua aroha koutou ki ahau: i haere mai hoki ahau i te Atua, a kua tae mai nei; kihai hoki ahau i haere noa mai, engari nana ahau i tono mai.
Therefore Jesus said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I have not come of myself, but he sent me.
43 He aha ra koutou te matau ai ki taku korero? no te mea e kore koutou e ahei te whakarongo ki taku kupu.
Why do you not understand my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.
44 Na to koutou matua koutou, na te rewera, e pai ana hoki kia mea i ta to koutou matua i hiahia ai. He kaikohuru ia no te timatanga, kihai hoki tu i roto i te pono, no te mea kahore he pono i roto i a ia. Ki te korero teka ia, e korero ana i ana: he korero teka hoki ia, ko te matua o te teka.
You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its father.
45 I taku korerotanga i te pono, kahore koutou e whakapono ki ahau.
But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
46 Ko wai o koutou hei whakaatu he hara toku? Ki te pono taku korero, he aha koutou te whakapono ai ki ahau?
Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?
47 E whakarongo ana te tangata a te Atua ki nga korero a te Atua: koia koutou te whakarongo ai, no te mea ehara koutou i te Atua.
He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you do not hear, because you are not of God."
48 Na ka whakahoki nga Hurai, ka mea ki a ia, Kahore koia i tika ta matou i mea ra, No hamaria koe, a he rewera tou?
Then the Judeans answered him, "Do not we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?"
49 Ka whakahokia e Ihu, Kahore oku rewera; engari e whakahonore ana ahau i toku Matua, ko koutou ia te whakakahore ana i te honore moku.
Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.
50 Kahore aku whai i te kororia moku: tera ano te kaiwhai, te kaiwhakatikatika.
But I do not seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.
51 He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te pupuri tetahi i taku kupu, e kore rawa ia e kite i te mate. (aiōn g165)
Truly, truly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death." (aiōn g165)
52 Ka mea nga Hurai ki a ia, Katahi matou ka mohio he rewera tou. Kua mate a Aperahama ratou ko nga poropiti, a e mea ana koe, Ki te pupuri tetahi i taku kupu, e kore rawa ia e pangia e te mate. (aiōn g165)
Then the Judeans said to him, "Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and you say, 'If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste of death.' (aiōn g165)
53 He nui oti koe i to matou matua, i a Aperahama kua mate nei? kua mate ano nga poropiti: ki tau ko wai koe?
Are you greater than our father, Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?"
54 Ka whakahokia e Ihu, Ki te whakahonore ahau i ahau ano, he honore noa toku: ko toku Matua hei whakahonore i ahau; ko ta koutou e mea nei ko ia to koutou Atua:
Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say 'He is our God.'
55 Heoi kahore koutou i matau ki a ia; ko ahau ia e matau ana ki a ia: a ki te mea ahua, Kahore ahau e matau ki a ia, he tangata teka ahau, he pena me koutou: otira e matau ana ahau ki a ia, e pupuri ana i tana kupu.
You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, 'I do not know him,' I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.
56 I hari to koutou matua, a Aperahama, mona ka kite i toku ra: i kite ia, a koa ake.
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad."
57 Katahi ka mea nga Hurai ki a ia, Kahore noa i rima tekau noa ou tau, a kua kite koe i a Aperahama?
The Judeans therefore said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?"
58 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Kahore noa ano a Aperahama, ko ahau tenei.
Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM."
59 Na ka mau ratou ki etahi kohatu hei epa ki a ia: heoi huna ana a Ihu i a ia, puta ana i roto i te temepara.
Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Jesus was concealed, and went out of the temple.
