< Matthew 13 >

1 And that [same] day Jesus went out from the house and sat down by the sea.
taua ra i haere atu a Ihu i te whare, ka noho ki te taha o te moana.
2 And great crowds were gathered together to him, so that going on board ship himself he sat down, and the whole crowd stood on the shore.
Na he rahi he hui i huihui ki a ia, a ka eke ia ki te kaipuke noho ai; i te takutai ano te hui katoa e tu ana.
3 And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying, Behold, the sower went out to sow:
A he maha ana korero ki a ratou, he mea whakarite; i mea ia, Na i haere te kairui ki te rui;
4 and as he sowed, some [grains] fell along the way, and the birds came and devoured them;
A, i a ia e rui ana, ka ngahoro etahi o nga purapura ki te taha o te ara, a, ko te rerenga mai o nga manu, kainga ake:
5 and others fell upon the rocky places where they had not much earth, and immediately they sprang up out of [the ground] because of not having [any] depth of earth,
Ko etahi i ngahoro ki nga wahi kamaka, ki nga wahi kihai i nui te oneone: na pihi tonu ake, kahore hoki i hohonu te oneone:
6 but when the sun rose they were burned up, and because of not having [any] root were dried up;
A, no te whitinga o te ra, ngaua iho; a, no te mea kahore he putake, memenge noa iho:
7 and others fell upon the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them;
Ko etahi i ngahoro ki roto ki nga tataramoa; a, no te tupunga ake o nga tataramoa, kowaowaotia ana nga purapura:
8 and others fell upon the good ground, and produced fruit, one a hundred, one sixty, and one thirty.
Ko etahi i ngahoro ki te oneone pai, a ka hua, no etahi kotahi rau, no etahi e ono tekau, no etahi e toru tekau.
9 He that has ears, let him hear.
Ki te whai taringa tetahi hei whakarongo, kia rongo ia.
10 And the disciples came up and said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables?
A ka haere nga akonga, ka mea ki a ia, He aha koe i korero whakarite tonu ai ki a ratou?
11 And he answering said to them, Because to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it is not given;
Na, ka whakahoki ia ki a ratou, ka mea, No te mea kua hoatu ki a koutou te matauranga ki nga mea ngaro o te rangatiratanga o te rangi, ki a ratou ia kahore i hoatu.
12 for whoever has, to him shall be given, and he shall be caused to be in abundance; but he who has not, even what he has shall be taken away from him.
Ki te whai mea hoki tetahi, ka hoatu ano ki a ia, a ka maha atu ana: ki te kahore ia he mea a tetahi, ka tangohia i a ia ana ake.
13 For this cause I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear nor understand;
Na reira enei kupu whakarite aku ki a ratou; no te mea kite rawa ratou, a kahore e kite; rongo rawa, kahore hoki e matau.
14 and in them is filled up the prophecy of Esaias, which says, Hearing ye shall hear and shall not understand, and beholding ye shall behold and not see;
A ka rite i a ratou te poropititanga a Ihaia, e mea nei, Rongo noa koutou, kahore e matau; titiro noa koutou, kahore e kite:
15 for the heart of this people has grown fat, and they have heard heavily with their ears, and they have closed their eyes as asleep, lest they should see with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Kua matotoru hoki te ngakau o tenei iwi, kua puhoi nga taringa ki te whakarongo, ko nga kanohi kua oti te whakamoe e ratou; kei kite o ratou kanohi, kei rongo nga taringa, a ka matau te ngakau, na ka tahuri ratou a ka whakaorangia e ahau.
16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear;
Ka koa ia o koutou kanohi, no te mea ka kite: o koutou taringa hoki, no te mea ka rongo.
17 for verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous [men] have desired to see the things which ye behold and did not see [them], and to hear the things which ye hear and did not hear [them].
He pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, He tokomaha nga poropiti me nga tangata tika i hiahia kia kite i nga mea e kite nei koutou, a kahore i kite; kia rongo hoki i nga mea e rongo nei koutou, a kahore i rongo.
18 Ye, therefore, hear the parable of the sower.
Na whakarongo ki te kupu i whakaritea ki te kairui.
19 From every one who hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand [it], the wicked one comes and catches away what was sown in his heart: this is he that is sown by the wayside.
Ki te rongo tetahi ki te kupu o te rangatiratanga, a e kore e matau, na ka haere mai te wairua kino, ka kapo i te mea ka oti na te rui ki tona ngakau. Ko te tangata tenei i nga purapura i te taha o te ara.
20 But he that is sown on the rocky places — this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy,
Ko te tangata ia i nga purapura i nga wahi kohatu, ko te tangata i rongo ki te kupu, a hohoro tonu te tango, hari tonu;
21 but has no root in himself, but is for a time only; and when tribulation or persecution happens on account of the word, he is immediately offended.
Otiia kahore ona pakiaka i roto i a ia, e mau noa ana mo te wa poto: a, no te panga o te whakapawera, o te whakatoi ranei, mo te kupu, na he tonu iho.
22 And he that is sown among the thorns — this is he who hears the word, and the anxious care of this life, and the deceit of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
Ko te tangata i nga purapura i waenga tataramoa, ko te tangata tena i rongo ki te kupu; a, ko te whakaaronga ki tenei ao, me te hangaru o nga taonga, hei whakakowaowao i te kupu, a kore ake he hua. (aiōn g165)
23 But he that is sown upon the good ground — this is he who hears and understands the word, who bears fruit also, and produces, one a hundred, one sixty, and one thirty.
Ko te tangata ia i nga purapura i te oneone pai, ko te tangata e rongo ana ki te kupu, a e matau ana; a ka whai hua, ea ake, no tetahi kotahi rau, no tetahi e ono tekau, no tetahi e toru tekau.
24 Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens has become like a man sowing good seed in his field;
Tenei ake ano tetahi kupu whakarite i maka e ia ki a ratou, i mea ia, Ka rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki tetahi tangata i rui i te purapura pai ki tana mara:
25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel amongst the wheat, and went away.
A, i nga tangata e moe ana, ka haere mai tona hoariri, ruia iho he taru kino ki waenga witi, a haere ana.
26 But when the blade shot up and produced fruit, then appeared the darnel also.
A, no ka pihi ake te rau, ka hua, katahi ka kitea hoki nga taru.
27 And the bondmen of the householder came up and said to him, Sir, hast thou not sown good seed in thy field? whence then has it darnel?
Na ka haere mai nga pononga a taua rangatira, ka mea ki a ia, E mara, kihai ianei koe i rui i te purapura pai ki tau mara? No hea ra ona taru?
28 And he said to them, A man [that is] an enemy has done this. And the bondmen said to him, Wilt thou then that we should go and gather it [up]?
Na ka ki atu ia ki a ratou, Na te hoariri tenei i mea. Katahi ka mea nga pononga ki a ia, E pai ranei koe kia haere matou ki te whakawhaiti i aua taru?
29 But he said, No; lest [in] gathering the darnel ye should root up the wheat with it.
A ka mea ia, Kahore; kei hutia ngatahitia te witi ina whakawhaititia nga taru.
30 Suffer both to grow together unto the harvest, and in time of the harvest I will say to the harvestmen, Gather first the darnel, and bind it into bundles to burn it; but the wheat bring together into my granary.
Tukua kia tupu tahi, a taea noatia te kotinga; a i te wa o te kotinga ka mea ahau ki nga kaikokoti, Matua whakawhaiti i nga taru, ka paihere ai hei paihere kia tahuna; ko te witi ia me kohi ki toku whare witi.
31 Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like a grain of mustard [seed] which a man took and sowed in his field;
Tenei ake ano tetahi kupu whakarite i maka e ia ki a ratou, i mea ia, He rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te pua nani, i kawea e te tangata, i ruia ki tana mara:
32 which is less indeed than all seeds, but when it is grown is greater than herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and roost in its branches.
He iti rawa ia i nga purapura katoa: a ka tupu, ko ia te nui rawa o nga otaota, a whakarakau ana, no ka rere mai nga manu o te rangi, ka noho ki ona manga.
33 He spoke another parable to them: The kingdom of the heavens is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until it had been all leavened.
Tenei ake ano tetahi kupu whakarite i korerotia e ia ki a ratou, He rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te rewena i tangohia e tetahi wahine, a whaongia ana ki roto ki nga mehua paraoa e toru, no ka rewenatia katoatia.
34 All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables, and without a parable he did not speak to them,
Ko enei mea katoa i korerotia e Ihu ki te mano, he mea whakarite; a heoi ano ana kupu ki a ratou he kupu whakarite anake:
35 so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from [the] world's foundation.
I rite ai ta te poropiti i korero ai, i mea ai, E puaki i toku mangai nga kupu whakarite; ka korerotia e ahau nga mea i ngaro no te timatanga ra ano o te ao.
36 Then, having dismissed the crowds, he went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Expound to us the parable of the darnel of the field.
Katahi ka mahue i a Ihu te mano, ka tomo ia ki te whare: na ka haere mai ana akonga ki a ia, ka mea, Whakaaturia mai ki a matou te kupu i whakaritea ki nga taru i te mara.
37 But he answering said, He that sows the good seed is the Son of man,
Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, Ko te kairui o te purapura pai ko te Tama a te tangata;
38 and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom, but the darnel are the sons of the evil [one];
Ko te mara ko te ao; ko te purapura pai ko nga tamariki o te rangatiratanga; nga taru ko nga tamariki a te kino;
39 and the enemy who has sowed it is the devil; and the harvest is [the] completion of [the] age, and the harvestmen are angels. (aiōn g165)
Ko te hoariri i ruia ai ko te rewera; te kotinga ko te mutunga o te ao; nga kaikokoti ko nga anahera. (aiōn g165)
40 As then the darnel is gathered and is burned in the fire, thus it shall be in the completion of the age. (aiōn g165)
Na e huihuia ana nga taru, e tahuna ana ki te ahi; ka pera ano i te mutunga o tenei ao. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all offences, and those that practise lawlessness;
Ka tono te Tama a te tangata i ana anahera ki te huihui i roto i tona rangatiratanga i nga mea katoa e tutuki ai te waewae, i nga kaimahi ano i te kino;
42 and they shall cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
A ka maka e ratou ki roto ki te oumu ahi; ko te wahi tera o te tangi me te tetea o nga niho.
43 Then the righteous shall shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that has ears, let him hear.
Ko reira te hunga tika whiti ai me te ra i te rangatiratanga o to ratou Matua. Ki te whai taringa tetahi hei whakarongo, kia rongo ia.
44 The kingdom of the heavens is like a treasure hid in the field, which a man having found has hid, and for the joy of it goes and sells all whatever he has, and buys that field.
He rite ano te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te taonga i huna ki te mara; no te kitenga a tetahi tangata, na ka huna e ia, a haere ana, he koa hoki nona, na hokona ana ana mea katoa, a hokona ana mai taua mara mana.
45 Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls;
He rite ano te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te kaihokohoko, e rapu ana i nga peara papai:
46 and having found one pearl of great value, he went and sold all whatever he had and bought it.
A, no tona kitenga i tetahi peara utu nui, haere ana, hokona ana ana mea katoa, a hokona ana mai taua peara mana.
47 Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like a seine which has been cast into the sea, and which has gathered together of every kind,
He rite ano te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te kupenga i tukua ki te moana, a haoa ana he ika o ia ahua, o ia ahua:
48 which, when it has been filled, having drawn up on the shore and sat down, they gathered the good into vessels and cast the worthless out.
A, ka ki, ka kumea ki uta, a noho ana, kohikohia ana nga ika papai ki nga kete, ko nga mea kikino ia i akiritia ki waho.
49 Thus shall it be in the completion of the age: the angels shall go forth and sever the wicked from the midst of the just, (aiōn g165)
Ka pera ano a te mutunga o te ao: ka haere nga anahera, ka wehewehe i te hunga kino i roto i te hunga tika, (aiōn g165)
50 and shall cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
A ka maka i a ratou ki roto ki te oumu ahi: ko te wahi tera o te tangi, o te tetea o nga niho.
51 Jesus says to them, Have ye understood all these things? They say to him, Yea, [Lord].
Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Kua matau ranei koutou ki enei mea katoa? Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki.
52 And he said to them, For this reason every scribe discipled to the kingdom of the heavens is like a man [that is] a householder who brings out of his treasure things new and old.
Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Koia te karaipi, i akona ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi, i rite ai ki tetahi rangatira whare e whakaputa mai ana i nga mea hou, i nga mea tawhito, i roto i tana toa.
53 And it came to pass when Jesus had finished these parables he withdrew thence.
A, ka mutu enei kupu whakarite a Ihu, ka haere atu ia i reira.
54 And having come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, Whence has this [man] this wisdom and these works of power?
A, ka tae ki tona kainga tupu, ka ako i a ratou i roto i to ratou whare karakia, a miharo noa ratou, ka mea, No hea enei whakaaro nui me nga merekara a tenei tangata?
55 Is not this the son of the carpenter? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brethren James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Judas?
Ehara ianei tenei i te tama a te kamura? He teka ianei ko Meri te ingoa o tona whaea? Ko Hemi hoki ratou ko Hohepa, ko Haimona, ko Hura, ona teina?
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then has this [man] all these things?
Me ona tuahine, kahore ianei ratou katoa i a tatou nei? No hea ra enei mea katoa a tenei tangata?
57 And they were offended in him. And Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honour, unless in his country and in his house.
Heoi ka he ratou ki a ia. Otira ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Kei tona kainga, kei tona whare anake te poropiti hapa ai i te honore.
58 And he did not there many works of power, because of their unbelief.
A kihai i maha nga merekara i meatia e ia ki reira, i to ratou whakaponokore hoki.
