Maka 15
1 A, mea kau ake te ata, ka runanga nga tohunga nui, nga kaumatua, nga karaipi, me te runanga katoa, a ka herea e ratou a Ihu, ka arahina atu, a tukua atu ana ki a Pirato.
Early in the morning, the chief priests met together with the elders and scribes and the entire Jewish council. Then they bound Jesus and led him away. They handed him over to Pilate.
2 Ka ui a Pirato ki a ia, Ko koe ranei te Kingi o nga Hurai? Ka whakahokia e ia ki a ia, Kua korerotia na e koe.
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “You say so.”
3 He maha hoki nga mea i whakapaea ki a ia e nga tohunga nui, kaore ia i korero.
The chief priests were presenting many charges against Jesus.
4 Ka ui ano a Pirato ki a ia, ka mea, Kahore au kupu whakahoki? Na, te tini o nga kupu e korero nei ratou mou.
Pilate again asked him, “Do you give no answer? See how many charges they are bringing against you!”
5 Heoi kahore a Ihu i whakahoki atu ano; no ka miharo a Pirato.
But Jesus no longer answered Pilate, and that amazed him.
6 Na i taua hakari kotahi te herehere e tukua ana e ia ki a ratou, ko ta ratou e inoi ai.
Now at the time of the feast, Pilate usually released to them one prisoner, a prisoner they requested.
7 Na i reira tetahi tangata ko Parapa te ingoa, e here tahi ana me ona hoa tutu, he hunga i patu tangata i te ngangaretanga.
There with the rebels in prison, among the murderers held for their part in the rebellion, was a man named Barabbas.
8 Na ka haere te mano, ka anga ka tono ki a ia kia peratia me tana i mea ai ki a ratou i mua.
The crowd came to Pilate and began to ask him to do for them as he had done in the past.
9 Na ka whakahoki a Pirato ki a ratou, ka mea, E pai ana ranei koutou kia tukua e ahau ki a koutou te Kingi o nga Hurai?
Pilate answered them and said, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10 I mahara hoki ia he hae i tukua ai ia e nga tohunga nui.
For he knew that it was because of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him.
11 Otira ka whakatutehutia e ratou te mano, kia tukua e ia ko Parapa ke ki a ratou.
But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to cry out that Barabbas should be released instead.
12 Na ka whakahoki ano a Pirato, ka mea ki a ratou, He aha oti ta koutou e pai ai kia meatia e ahau ki tenei e huaina nei e koutou ko te Kingi o nga Hurai?
Pilate answered them again and said, “What then should I do with the King of the Jews?”
13 Ka karanga ano ratou, Ripekatia.
They shouted again, “Crucify him!”
14 Na ka mea a Pirato ki a ratou, He aha koia tana kino i mea ai? Heoi nui noa atu ta ratou hamama, Ripekatia ia.
Pilate said to them, “What wrong has he done?” But they shouted more and more, “Crucify him.”
15 Na, i tona hiahia kia whakamarietia te mano, tukua ana e Pirato a parapa ki a ratou, a, ka oti a Ihu te whiu, ka tukua kia ripekatia.
Pilate wanted to satisfy the crowd, so he released Barabbas to them. He scourged Jesus and then handed him over to be crucified.
16 Na ka arahina ia e nga hoia ki te marae, ara ki te whare whakawa, a karangarangatia ana te ropu katoa.
The soldiers led him inside the courtyard (which is the government headquarters), and they called together the whole cohort of soldiers.
17 Ka whakakahuria ia ki te kakahu papura, a, ka oti tetahi karauna tataramoa te whiri, ka potaea ki a ia.
They put a purple robe on Jesus, and they twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on him.
18 Na ka anga ratou ka oha ki a ia, Tena koe, e te Kingi o nga Hurai!
They began to salute him and say, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19 Patua ana e ratou tona matenga ki te kakaho, tuwha ana ki a ia, ka tuku i nga turi ki a ia, a koropiko ana ki a ia.
They struck his head with a reed staff and they spat on him. They bent their knees before him to pretend to worship him.
20 A, no ka mutu ta ratou taunu ki a ia, ka tangohia te kahu papura i a ia, na whakakakahuria ana ia ki ona ake kakahu, a arahina ana ia kia ripekatia.
When they had mocked him, they took off of him the purple robe and put his own garments on him, and then led him out to crucify him.
21 Na ka meinga e ratou tetahi tangata e tika ana na reira, a Haimona o hairini, i ahu mai i nga whenua, ko te papa o Arehanera raua ko Rupuha, kia haere me ratou, kia riro ai mana e amo tona ripeka.
A certain man, Simon of Cyrene, was coming in from the country (he was the father of Alexander and Rufus), and they forced him to carry his cross.
22 Na ka arahina ia ki tetahi wahi, ki Korokota, tona tikanga ina whakamaoritia ko te Wahi Angaanga.
The soldiers brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which interpreted means, “Place of a Skull”).
23 A hoatu ana ki a ia he waina, he mea whakananu ki te maira, kia inumia: otira kihai i tangohia e ia.
They offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not drink it.
24 A ripekatia ana ia e ratou, ka wehewehea ona kakahu, he mea maka ki te rota, kia kitea ai ko te aha e riro i tetahi, i tetahi.
They crucified him and divided up his garments by casting lots to determine what piece each soldier would take.
25 Na ko te toru tera o nga haora, a ka ripekatia ia e ratou.
It was the third hour when they crucified him.
26 Ko te mea i whakawakia ai ia i tuhituhia ki runga, KO TE KINGI O NGA HURAI.
On a sign they wrote the charge against him, “The king of the Jews.”
27 Na tokorua nga tahae i ripekatia ngatahitia me ia; ko tetahi ki matau, ko tetahi ki tona maui.
With him they crucified two robbers, one on the right of him and one on his left.
28 Na ka rite te karaipiture e mea nei, I taua ngatahitia ia me te hunga hara.
29 Ko te hunga e haereere ana i reira ka tawai ki a ia, ka ruru i o ratou matenga, ka mea, Ha, ko koe ka whakahoro nei i te whare tapu, ka hanga nei ano i nga ra e toru,
Those who passed by insulted him, shaking their heads and saying, “Aha! You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,
30 Whakaora i a koe ano ka heke iho i te ripeka.
save yourself and come down from the cross!”
31 Waihoki ko nga tohunga nui ka tawai i a ia, ratou ko nga karaipi, ka mea, Ko era atu i whakaorangia e ia, te taea e ia te whakaora a ia ake ano.
In the same way the chief priests were mocking him with each other, along with the scribes, and said, “He saved others, but he cannot save himself.
32 Tena ra kia heke iho aianei a te Karaiti, te Kingi o Iharaira, i te ripeka, kia kite ai tatou, kia whakapono ai. I tawai hoki ki a ia te hunga i ripekatia ngatahitia me ia.
Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe,” and those who were crucified with him also taunted him.
33 A, no ka tae ki te ono o nga haora, ka pouri a runga o te whenua katoa, taea noatia te iwa o nga haora.
At the sixth hour, darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34 A i te iwa o nga haora ka karanga a Ihu, he nui te reo, ka mea, Eroi, Eroi, rama hapakatani? ko te tikanga tenei ina whakamaoritia, E toku Atua, e toku Atua, he aha koe i whakarere ai i ahau?
At the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
35 A, no te rongonga o etahi o te hunga e tu ana i reira, ka mea, Nana, e karanga ana ia i a Iraia.
Some of those standing by heard his words and said, “Look, he is calling for Elijah.”
36 Na ka oma tetahi, ka whakaki i tetahi hautai ki te winika, whakanohoia ana ki te kakaho, ka hoatu kia inumia e ia, ka mea, Kati; tena kia kite tatou me kore a Iraia e haere mai ki te tango i a ia ki raro.
Someone ran, put sour wine on a sponge, put it on a reed staff, and gave it to him to drink. The man said, “Let us see if Elijah comes to take him down.”
37 Na he nui te reo i puaki i a Ihu, a hemo ake.
Then Jesus cried out with a loud voice and died.
38 A ka wahia te arai o te temepara i waenganui pu mai i runga ki raro.
The curtain of the temple was split in two from the top to the bottom.
39 A, no te kitenga o te keneturio, e tu hangai atu ana ki a ia, i pera te ahua o tana tukunga i tona wairua, ka mea ia, He pono ko te Tama a te Atua tenei tangata.
When the centurion who stood and faced Jesus saw that he had died in this way, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God.”
40 Na i reira etahi wahine e matakitaki ana mai i tawhiti: i roto i a ratou a Meri Makarini, a Meri hoki whaea o Hemi, te mea iti, raua ko Hohi, me Haromi;
There were also women who looked on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary (the mother of James the younger and of Joses), and Salome.
41 Ara ko nga wahine i aru nei i a ia, i a ia i Kariri, i mahi mea nei mana; me etahi atu wahine tokomaha i haere tahi mai nei me ia ki Hiruharama.
When he was in Galilee they followed him and served him. Many other women also came up with him to Jerusalem.
42 Na ka ahiahi, i te mea ko te ra takanga, ara ko te ra i mua ake o te hapati,
When evening had come, because it was the Day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43 Ka haere mai a Hohepa o Arimatia, he rangatira runanga, he tangata nui tonu, e tatari ana ano hoki ia ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua; a ka haere maia tonu ki a Pirato, ka inoi i te tinana o Ihu.
Joseph of Arimathea came there. He was a respected member of the council, who was waiting for the kingdom of God. He boldly went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
44 Na ka miharo a Pirato, hua noa kahore ano i mate: ka karangatia e ia te keneturio, ka ui ki a ia, mehemea kua mate atu ra ia.
Pilate was amazed that Jesus was already dead; he called the centurion and asked him if Jesus was dead.
45 A, no ka rongo ki te keneturio kua mate, ka whakaaetia e ia te tinana ki a Hohepa.
When Pilate learned from the centurion that Jesus was dead, he gave the body to Joseph.
46 Na ka hokona e tera he rinena, ka tangohia mai ia ki raro, a takaia ana ki te rinena; whakatakotoria ana ia ki roto ki te urupa kua haua atu ki te kamaka, a whakataka atu ana he kohatu ki te kuwaha o te urupa.
Joseph had bought a linen cloth. He took him down from the cross, wrapped him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of a rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
47 I kite a Meri Makarini, raua ko Meri whaea o Hohi, i te wahi i whakatakotoria ai ia.
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw the place where Jesus was buried.
