Luke 11
1 When he finished praying in a certain place, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as Yochanan also taught his disciples.”
A, i a ia e inoi ana i tetahi wahi, a ka mutu, ka ki atu tetahi o ana akonga ki a ia, E te Ariki, whakaakona matou ki te inoi, me Hoani hoki i whakaako ra i ana akonga.
2 He said to them, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ka inoi koutou, mea atu, E to matou Matua i te rangi, Kia tapu tou ingoa. Kia tae mai tou rangatiratanga. Kia meatia tau e pai ai ki runga ki te whenua, kia rite ano ki to te rangi.
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
Homai ta matou taro ki a matou, to tenei ra, to tenei ra.
4 Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’”
Murua o matou hara; e murua ana hoki e matou o nga tangata katoa e hara ana ki a matou. Aua hoki matou e kawea kia whakawaia.
5 He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
I mea ano ia ki a ratou, Ko wai o koutou ki te mea he hoa tona, a ka tae atu ki a ia i waenganui po, ka mea ki a ia, E hoa, homai ki ahau etahi taro, kia toru;
6 for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’
Kua tae mai hoki toku hoa ki ahau i te ara, kahore aku mea e whakatakoto ai ahau mana?
7 and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?
A ka whakahoki tera i roto, ka mea, Hoha ki, kati ra: kua tutakina noatia ake te tatau, kei te moenga matou ko aku tamariki; e kore e ahei kia whakatika atu ahau ki te hoatu ki a koe.
8 I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.
Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Ahakoa kahore ia i whakatika ki te hoatu ki a ia, no te mea he hoa nona, ma tana tohe ano ka ara ake ai ia, ka hoatu ai ki a ia i nga mea i tonoa e ia.
9 “I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.
Ko taku kupu ano tenei ki a koutou, Inoi, a ka hoatu ki a koutou; e rapu, a ka kite koutou; patukia, a ka uakina ki a koutou.
10 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
Ka whiwhi hoki nga tangata katoa ina inoi; ka kite ina rapu; ka uakina ki te tangata e patuki ana.
11 “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?
Ko tehea matua o koutou ki te inoia e tana tama tetahi taro, e hoatu ranei ki a ia he kamaka? ki te inoia he ika, e hoatu ranei ki a ia he nakahi hei ika?
12 Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he?
Ki te inoia he hua manu, e hoatu ranei ki a ia he kopiona?
13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”
Ki te mea ko koutou, hunga kino nei, e matau ana ki te hoatu mea papai ki a koutou tamariki: tera noa ake te homaitanga o te Wairua Tapu e to koutou Matua i te rangi ki te hunga e inoi ana ki a ia.
14 He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the multitudes marvelled.
Na e pei rewera ana ia, he mea wahangu ano hoki. A, no te putanga o te rewera ki waho, ka korero te wahangu; a miharo ana te mano.
15 But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
Na ka mea etahi o ratou, Na te rangatira o nga rewera, na Perehepura, tana peinga rewera.
16 Others, testing him, sought from him a sign from heaven.
Na ka whakamatautau etahi, ka mea ki tetahi tohu i a ia i te rangi.
17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. A house divided against itself falls.
Otiia i matau ia ki o ratou whakaaro, a ka mea ki a ratou, Ki te tahuri iho tetahi rangatiratanga ki a ia ano, ka kore; ki te tahuri hoki tetahi whare ki tetahi whare, ka hinga.
18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.
A ki te tahuri iho a hatana ki a ia ano, me pehea e tu ai tona rangatiratanga? e mea na hoki koutou, na Perehepura taku peinga rewera.
19 But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
Na, ki te mea na Perehepura taku peinga rewera, na wai te peinga a a koutou tama? mo konei hei kaiwhakawa ratou mo koutou.
20 But if I by God’s finger cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come to you.
Tena ki te mea na te ringa o te Atua taku peinga rewera, ina, kua tae mai te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki a koutou.
21 “When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own dwelling, his goods are safe.
Ki te tiakina e te tangata kaha, he patu nei ana, tona whare, ka ata takoto ana taonga:
22 But when someone stronger attacks him and overcomes him, he takes from him his whole armour in which he trusted, and divides his plunder.
Ki te puta mai ia te mea e kaha atu ana i a ia, a ka hinga tera, na ka tangohia ana patu i whakamanawa ai ia, ka tuwhatuwhaia ona taonga.
23 “He who is not with me is against me. He who doesn’t gather with me scatters.
Ko te tangata ehara i te hoa noku, he hoariri ia ki ahau: ko te tangata kahore e kohikohi tahi maua, e titaritari ana.
24 The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’
Ka puta te wairua poke i roto i te tangata, ka haereere ia ra nga wahi waikore rapu okiokinga ai; a, kahore e kitea, ka mea ia, Ka hoki ahau ki toku whare i puta mai ai ahau.
25 When he returns, he finds it swept and put in order.
A, no te taenga atu, rokohanga atu kua oti te tahitahi, te whakapaipai.
26 Then he goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first.”
Na ka haere ia, ka tango i etahi atu wairua tokowhitu, he kino atu i a ia; a ka tomo atu, ka noho i reira: a kino atu i te timatanga te whakamutunga o taua tangata.
27 It came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”
A i ia e korero ana i enei mea, ka karanga ake tetahi wahine i roto i te mano, ka mea ki a ia, Koa tonu te kopu i kawea ai koe, me nga u i ngotea e koe.
28 But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”
Ano ra hoki ko ia, Engari ra, tino koa te hunga e whakarongo ana ki te kupu a te Atua, a e mahi ana.
29 When the multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
A, no ka rupeke te mano, ka anga ia ka korero, He whakatupuranga kino tenei: e rapu ana ki tetahi tohu; a e kore tetahi tohu e hoatu, ko te tohu anake o Hona poropiti.
30 For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will also be to this generation.
I waiho nei hoki a Hona hei tohu ki nga tangata o Ninewe, ka pera ano te Tama a te tangata ki tenei whakatupuranga.
31 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgement with the men of this generation and will condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.
Ka whakatika ngatahi te kuini o te tonga i te whakawakanga me nga tangata o tenei whakatupuranga, ka whakatau i te he ki a ratou; i haere hoki ia i nga pito o te whenua ki te whakarongo ki te whakaaro nui o Horomona; a tenei tetahi he nui ke atu i a Horomona.
32 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgement with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the proclaiming of Jonah; and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.
Ka whakatika ngatahi nga tangata o Ninewe i te whakawakanga me tenei whakatupuranga, ka whakatau i te he ki a ratou: i ripeneta hoki ratou i te kauwhautanga a Hona; a tenei tetahi he nui ke atu i a Hona.
33 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.
Ka tahuna te rama, e kore e waiho e te tangata ki te wahi ngaro, ki raro ranei i te puhera, engari ki runga ki te turanga, kia kitea ai te marama e te hunga e tomo atu ana.
34 The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.
Ko te kanohi te rama o te tinana: na, ki te atea tou kanohi, ka marama ano tou tinana katoa; tena ki te kino, ka pouri ano hoki tou tinana.
35 Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.
Na reira kia ata titiro mehemea ehara i te pouri te marama i roto i a koe.
36 If therefore your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining gives you light.”
Na, a ki te marama tou tinana katoa, a ki te kore ona wahi pouri, ka marama katoa ano, me te mea ko te mura o te rama e whakamarama ana i a koe.
37 Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.
Na, i a ia e korero ana, ka tono tetahi parihi kia kai ia ki a ia; a haere ana ia ki roto, ka noho.
38 When the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
A, i te kitenga o te Parihi, ka miharo, no te mea kahore ia e horoi i mua o te kainga.
39 The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
Ka mea te Ariki ki a ia, Tenei koutou, e nga Parihi, te horoi nei i waho o te kapu, o te rihi; ko roto ia o koutou e ki ana i te pahua, i te kino.
40 You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
E te hunga kuware, kihai ianei i hanga a roto e te kaihanga o waho?
41 But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.
Engari hoatu nga mea o roto hei atawhainga mo nga rawakore; a ka ma nga mea katoa ki a koutou.
42 But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and God’s love. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
Otira, aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga Parihi! e hoatu ana hoki e koutou te wahi whakatekau, o te miniti, o te ru, o nga otaota katoa, a kapea ake te whakarite whakawa me te aroha ki te Atua: he tika ano ko enei kia meatia, kia kaua ano hoki era e kapea.
43 Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
Aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga parihi! ko ta koutou hoki e rawe ai ko nga nohoanga rangatira i nga whare karakia, me nga ohatanga i nga kainga hokohoko.
44 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”
Aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga karaipi, e nga Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! e rite na koutou ki nga urupa ngaro, e kore e kitea e nga tangata e haereere ana i runga.
45 One of the Torah scholars answered him, “Rabbi, in saying this you insult us also.”
Na ka whakahoki tetahi o nga kaiwhakaako o te ture, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, he whakahe ano hoki mo matou enei korero au.
46 He said, “Woe to you Torah scholars also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.
Na ko tana meatanga, Aue, te mate mo koutou hoki, e nga kaiwhakaako o te ture! e whakawaha ana hoki koutou i nga tangata ki nga kawenga taimaha rawa hei pikaunga, a e kore tetahi o o koutou matihao e pa atu ki aua kawenga.
47 Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
Aue, te mate mo koutou! ko koutou nei hoki hei hanga i nga urupa o nga poropiti, na o koutou matua hoki ratou i whakamate.
48 So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.
Na, he kaiwhakaatu koutou he kaiwhakaae ki nga mahi a o koutou matua: na ratou hoki ratou i whakamate, ko koutou hoki hei hanga i o ratou urupa.
49 Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and emissaries; and some of them they will kill and persecute,
Na konei ano te matauranga o te Atua i mea ai, Maku e tono he poropiti, he apotoro ki a ratou, a ka whakamate, ka tukino ratou i etahi o ratou:
50 that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,
Kia rapua ai he utu i tenei whakapaparanga mo te toto o nga poropiti katoa i ringihia nei no te timatanga ra ano o te ao;
51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
No te toto o Apera, tae noa ki te toto o Hakaraia i mate nei ki waenganui o te aata, o te wahi tapu: ae ra, ka mea atu ahau ki a koutou, E rapua he utu i tenei whakapaparanga.
52 Woe to you Torah scholars! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”
Aue, te mate mo koutou, e nga kaiwhakaako o te ture! kua tangohia hoki e koutou te ki o te matauranga: kihai koutou i tomo ki roto, a i arai hoki koutou i te hunga e tomo ana.
53 As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him,
Na, i tona putanga mai ki waho, ka timata te tohetohe kaha a nga karaipi, a nga Parihi ki a ia, he mea kia maha atu ai ana korero:
54 lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.
E whakamoho ana hoki, kia mau tetahi kupu a tona mangai.
