Luke 14
1 And it came to pass on the going of Him into a house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread and they themselves were watching Him.
A, i tona haerenga ki te whare o tetahi o nga rangatira, he Parihi, ki te kai taro i te hapati, na titiro pu mai ana ratou ki a ia.
2 And behold a man certain there was with dropsy before Him.
Na, ko tetahi tangata i tona aroaro, he kopu tetere tona mate.
3 And answering Jesus spoke to the lawyers and to [the] Pharisees saying; (if *k) Is it lawful on the Sabbath (to heal *N+kO) (or not? *NO)
Na ka oho a Ihu, ka korero ki nga kaiwhakaako o te ture, ki nga Parihi, ka mea, he mea tika ranei te whakaora i te hapati?
4 But they were silent. And having taken hold [of him] He healed him and let [him] go.
A kihai ratou i kiki. Na ka mau ia ki a ia, a whakaorangia ana, tukua ana kia haere;
5 And (answering *k) to them He said; Which of you (a son *N+KO) or an ox into a pit (will collapse, *N+kO) also surely immediately he will pull up him on day the Sabbath?
Na ka whakahoki ia ki a ratou, ka mea, Ki te taka te kaihe, te kau ranei, a tetahi o koutou ki te poka, e kore ianei e hutia ake e ia i reira pu ano i te ra hapati?
6 And not they were able to reply (to him *k) to these things.
A kihai i taea e ratou te utu enei kupu ana.
7 He was speaking then to those invited a parable remarking how the first places they were choosing out, saying to them;
Na ka korerotia e ia tetahi kupu whakarite ki te hunga i karangatia, i tona kitenga i a ratou e whiriwhiri ana i nga nohoanga rangatira; i mea ia ki a ratou.
8 When you may be invited by anyone to wedding feasts, not may recline in the first place, otherwise otherwise [one] more honorable than you may have been invited by him,
Ki te karangatia koe e tetahi ki te marena, kaua e noho ki te nohoanga rangatira; kei karangatia hoki e ia tetahi he nui atu i a koe;
9 and having come the [one] you and him having invited he will say to you; do give to this one [your] place. and then you will begin with shame the last place to take.
A ka haere mai te tangata i karangatia ai korua, ka mea ki a koe, Tukua he nohoanga mo tenei; a ka whakama koe, ka haere ki to muri rawa nohoanga noho ai.
10 But when you may be invited, having gone (do recline *N+kO) in the last place, so that when may come the [one] having invited you, (he will say *N+kO) to you; Friend, do come up higher. Then will be to you glory before (all *NO) those reclining [with] you.
Engari ka karangatia koe, haere, e noho ki to muri rawa nohoanga; mo te tae rawa mai o te tangata nana koe i karanga, na ka mea ia ki a koe whai kororia ai i te aroaro o nga tangata e noho tahi ana koutou.
11 For everyone who is exalting himself will be humbled, and the [one] humbling himself will be exalted.
Ki te whakanui hoki tetahi i a ia, ka whakaititia; ki te whakaiti tetahi i a ia, ka whakanuia.
12 He was saying then also to the [one] having invited Him; When you may make a dinner or a supper, not do call the friends of you nor [call] the brothers of you nor [call] the relatives of you nor [call] neighbours rich otherwise otherwise also they themselves may invite in return you and it may become recompense to you.
Na ka mea ia ki te tangata nana nei ia i karanga, E taka koe i te tina, i te hapa ranei, kaua e karangatia ou hoa, kaua hoki ou teina, kaua hoki ou whanaunga, kaua ano nga tangata taonga e noho tata ana; kei karangatia ano koe, a ka whai utu koe.
13 But when a feast you may make do call [the] poor, [the] crippled, [the] lame, [the] blind.
Engari ka taka hakari koe, karangatia nga rawakore, nga haua, nga kopa, nga matapo:
14 and blessed you will be, because nothing they have to repay you; It will be recompensed for to you in the resurrection of the righteous.
A ka koa koe; kahore hoki a ratou utu ki a koe: engari ka utua koe a te aranga o te hunga tika.
15 Having heard then one of those reclining with [Him] these things he said to Him; Blessed [is he] (who *N+kO) will eat (bread *NK+o) in the kingdom of God.
A, no ka rongo tetahi o te hunga e noho tahi ana ki te kai ki enei mea, ka mea ki a ia, Ka koa te tangata kai taro i te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
16 But He said to him; A man certain (was preparing *N+kO) a supper great and invited many;
Na ka mea ia ki a ia, I taka he hapa nui e tetahi tangata, a he tokomaha i karangatia:
17 And he sent the servant of him at the hour of the supper to say to those invited; do come, for now ready [it] is (all things. *KO)
A ka tonoa tana pononga i te haora o te hapa, hei mea ki te hunga i karangatia, haere mai; kua rite hoki nga mea katoa.
18 And began with one [voice] all to excuse themselves. The first said to him; A field I have bought and I have need (going out *N+kO) (and *k) to see it; I beg of you, do hold me excused.
Na ka anga ratou katoa ka whakakahore ngatahi. Ka mea to mua ki a ia, Kua hokona e ahau he mara, me haere ahau kia kite: e mea ana ahau ki a koe, kia tukua ahau kia whakakahore.
19 And another said; Yoke of oxen I have bought five and I am going to prove them; I beg of you do hold me excused.
Na ko te meatanga a tetahi, E rima takirua nga okiha kua hokona e ahau, ka haere ahau ki te whakamatau: e mea ana ahau ki a koe, kia tukua ahau kia whakakahore.
20 And another said; A wife I have married and because of this not I am able to come.
I mea ano tetahi, Kua marenatia ahau ki te wahine, he mea tenei e kore ai ahau e ahei te haere atu.
21 And having come the servant (that *k) reported to the master of him these things. Then having become angry the master of the house said to the servant of him; do go out soon into the streets and lanes of the city, and the poor and crippled and blind and lame do bring in here.
A, ko te haerenga mai o taua pononga, ka korerotia enei mea ki tona rangatira, na ka riri te tangata i te whare, ka mea ki tana pononga, Hohoro te haere ki nga ara, ki nga huarahi o te pa, arahina mai ki konei nga rawakore, nga ngongengonge, nga matapo, me nga kopa.
22 And said the servant; Sir, it has been done (as *N+kO) you did command, and still room there is.
Na ka mea te pononga, E kara, kua rite tau i mea ai, a tenei ano he wahi takoto noa.
23 And said the master to the servant; do go out into the highways and hedges and do compel [them] to come in so that may be filled of mine the house.
A ka mea te rangatira ki te pononga, haere ki nga huarahi, ki nga taiepa, toia mai ki roto nei, kia ki ai toku whare.
24 I say for to you that not [one] of the men of those which invited will taste my supper (many for are called few but chosen. *O)
Ko taku kupu hoki tenei ki a koutou, E kore tetahi o aua tangata i karangatia ra e kai i taku hapa.
25 Were going with then Him crowds great. and having turned He said to them;
Na he tini te tangata i haere tahi me ia; a ka tahuri ia, ka mea ki a ratou,
26 If anyone comes to Me and not he hates the father (of himself *NK+o) and the mother and the wife and the children and the brothers and the sisters yes (and *N+kO) even the life his own not he is able to be My disciple.
Ki te haere mai tetahi ki ahau, a ka kore e whakakino ki tona papa, whaea, wahine, tamariki, teina, tuahine, ae ra ki te ora ano mona ake, e kore ia e ahei hei akonga maku.
27 (and *ko) Whoever not carries the cross (of himself *NK+o) and comes after Me, not is able to be My disciple.
Ki te kore tetahi e mau ki tona ripeka, e haere mai i muri i ahau, e kore ia e ahei hei akonga maku.
28 Which for of you (who *o) is desiring a tower to build not first he having sat down he counts the cost whether he has (for *N+kO) [its] completion?
Ko wai hoki o koutou, ki te mea ia ki te hanga taumaihi, e kore e matua noho ki te tatau i nga utu, mehemea e ranea ana ana mea hei whakaoti?
29 Thus otherwise otherwise [when] laying of it a foundation and not being able to finish all those seeing [it] may begin him to mock
Kei whakatakoto ia i te turanga, ka kore e taea te whakaoti, a ka tawai mai ki a ia te hunga katoa e matakitaki ana,
30 saying that This man began to build and not he was able to finish.
Ka mea, i timata te tangata nei te hanga whare, a kihai i taea te whakaoti.
31 Or what king proceeding with another king to engage in war not having sat down first (will take counsel *N+kO) whether able he is with ten thousand (to meet *N+kO) the [one] with twenty thousand coming against him?
Ko tehea kingi ranei e haere ana ki te whawhai ki tetahi atu kingi, e kore e matua noho, e whakaaro, e taea ranei e ia me nga mano kotahi tekau te tu kite riri ki tera e haere mai ra ki a ia me nga mano e rua tekau?
32 lest then except indeed still of him far off being an embassy having sent he asks for peace.
A, ki te kahore, i te mea i tawhiti ano tera, ka tukua atu e ia he karere, ka mea ki nga kaupapa e houhia ai te rongo.
33 So therefore every one of you who not does give up all his own possessions, not is able to be My disciple.
Waihoki, ko te tangata o koutou e kore e whakarere i ana mea katoa, e kore e ahei hei akonga maku.
34 Good [is] (therefore *NO) the salt; if however (even *no) the salt shall become tasteless, with what will it be seasoned?
No reira he pai te tote: otira ki te hemo te ha o te tote, ma te aha ka whai ha ai?
35 Neither [is it] for soil nor for manure fit is it; out they cast it. The [one] having ears to hear he should hear.
E kore e pai mo te whenua, e kore ano hei whakawairakau; a ka akiritia ai e te tangata ki waho. ko ia he taringa ona hei whakarongo, kia rongo ia.
