Te Kupu Whakarite mō te Kairui
(Māka 4.1-9; Ruka 8.4-8)
1 I taua rā i haere atu a Īhu i te whare, ka noho ki te taha o te moana. 2 Nā, he rahi te hui i huihui ki a ia, ā, ka eke ia ki te kaipuke noho ai; i te takutai anō te hui katoa e tū ana. 3 Ā, he maha āna kōrero ki a rātou, he mea whakarite; i mea ia:
“Nā, i haere te kairui ki te rui. 4 Ā, i a ia e rui ana, ka ngahoro ētahi o ngā purapura ki te taha o te ara, ā, ko te rerenga mai o ngā manu, kainga ake. 5 Ko ētahi i ngahoro ki ngā wāhi kāmaka, ki ngā wāhi kīhai i nui te oneone; nā, pihi tonu ake, kāhore hoki i hōhonu te oneone. 6 Ā, nō te whitinga o te rā, ngaua iho; ā, nō te mea kāhore he pūtake, memenge noa iho. 7 Ko ētahi i ngahoro ki roto ki ngā tātarāmoa; ā, nō te tupunga ake o ngā tātarāmoa, kōwaowaotia ana ngā purapura; 8 Ko ētahi i ngahoro ki te oneone pai, ā, ka hua, nō ētahi kotahi rau, nō ētahi e ono tekau, nō ētahi e toru tekau.
9 “Ki te whai taringa tētahi hei whakarongo, kia rongo ia.”
Te Take o ngā Kupu Whakarite
(Māka 4.10-12; Ruka 8.9-10)
10 Ā, ka haere ngā ākonga, ka mea ki a ia, “He aha koe i kōrero whakarite tonu ai ki a rātou?”
11 Nā, ka whakahoki ia ki a rātou, ka mea, “Nō te mea kua hoatu ki a koutou te mātauranga ki ngā mea ngaro o te rangatiratanga o te rangi, ki a rātou ia kāhore i hoatu. 12 Ki te whai mea hoki tētahi, ka hoatu anō ki a ia, ā, ka maha atu ana. Ki te kāhore ia he mea a tētahi, ka tangohia i a ia āna ake. 13 Nā reira ēnei kupu whakarite āku ki a rātou; nō te mea ‘kite rawa rātou, ā, kāhore e kite; rongo rawa, kāhore hoki e mātau.’ 14 Ā, ka rite i a rātou te poropititanga a Ihāia, e mea nei:
‘Rongo noa koutou,
kāhore e mātau;
titiro noa koutou,
kāhore e kite.
15 Kua mātotoru hoki te ngākau o tēnei iwi,
kua pūhoi ngā taringa ki te whakarongo,
ko ngā kanohi kua oti te whakamoe e rātou;
kei kite ō rātou kanohi,
kei rongo ngā taringa,
ā, ka mātau te ngākau, nā, ka tahuri rātou,
ā, ka whakaorangia e ahau.’
16 Ka koa ia ō koutou kanohi, nō te mea ka kite; ō koutou taringa hoki, nō te mea ka rongo. 17 He pono hoki tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, he tokomaha ngā poropiti me ngā tāngata tika i hiahia kia kite i ngā mea e kite nei koutou, ā, kāhore i kite; kia rongo hoki i ngā mea e rongo nei koutou, ā, kāhore i rongo.”
Te Take o ngā Kupu Whakarite
(Māka 4.13-20; Ruka 8.11-15)
18 “Nā, whakarongo ki te kupu i whakaritea ki te kairui. 19 Ki te rongo tētahi ki te kupu o te rangatiratanga, ā, e kore e mātau, nā, ka haere mai te wairua kino, ka kapo i te mea ka oti nā te rui ki tōna ngākau. Ko te tangata tēnei i ngā purapura i te taha o te ara. 20 Ko te tangata ia i ngā purapura i ngā wāhi kōhatu, ko te tangata i rongo ki te kupu, ā, hohoro tonu te tango, hari tonu; 21 Otiia, kāhore ōna pakiaka i roto i a ia, e mau noa ana mō te wā poto, ā, nō te pānga o te whakapāwera, o te whakatoi rānei, mō te kupu, nā hē tonu iho. 22 Ko te tangata i ngā purapura i waenga tātarāmoa, ko te tangata tēnā i rongo ki te kupu; ā, ko te whakaaronga ki tēnei ao, me te hangarau o ngā taonga, hei whakakōwaowao i te kupu, ā, kore ake he hua. 23 Ko te tangata ia i ngā purapura i te oneone pai, ko te tangata e rongo ana ki te kupu, ā, e mātau ana; ā, ka whai hua, ea ake, nō tētahi kotahi rau, nō tētahi e ono tekau, nō tētahi e toru tekau.”
Te Kupu Whakarite mō ngā Taru Kino
24 Tēnei ake anō tētahi kupu whakarite i makā e ia ki a rātou, i mea ia: “Ka rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki tētahi tangata i rui i te purapura pai ki tāna māra. 25 Ā, i ngā tāngata e moe ana, ka haere mai tōna hoariri, ruia iho he taru kino ki waenga wīti, ā, haere ana. 26 Ā, nō ka pihi ake te rau, ka hua, kātahi ka kitea hoki ngā taru. 27 Nā, ka haere mai ngā pononga a taua rangatira, ka mea ki a ia, ‘E mara, kīhai ianei koe i rui i te purapura pai ki tāu māra? Nō hea rā ōna taru?’
28 “Nā, ka kī atu ia ki a rātou, ‘Nā te hoariri tēnei i mea.’ Kātahi, ka mea ngā pononga ki a ia, ‘E pai rānei koe kia haere mātou ki te whakawhāiti i aua taru?’ 29 Ā, ka mea ia, ‘Kāhore; kei hūtia ngātahitia te wīti ina whakawhāititia ngā taru. 30 Tukua kia tupu tahi, ā taea noatia te kotinga; ā, i te wā o te kotinga ka mea ahau ki ngā kaikokoti, Mātua whakawhāiti i ngā taru, ka paihere ai hei paihere kia tahuna; ko te wīti ia me kohi ki tōku whare wīti.’ ”
Te Kupu Whakarite mō te Pua Nanī
(Māka 4.30-32; Ruka 13.18-19)
31 Tēnei ake anō tētahi kupu whakarite i makā e ia ki a rātou, i mea ia: “He rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te pua nanī, i kawea e te tangata, i ruia ki tāna māra. 32 He iti rawa ia i ngā purapura katoa, ā, ka tupu, ko ia te nui rawa o ngā otaota, ā, whakarākau ana, nō ka rere mai ngā manu o te rangi, ka noho ki ōna manga.”
Te Kupu Whakarite mō te Rēwena
(Ruka 13.20-21)
33 Tēnei ake anō tētahi kupu whakarite i kōrerotia e ia ki a rātou: “He rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te rēwena i tangohia e tētahi wahine, ā, whaongia ana ki roto ki ngā mēhua parāoa e toru, nō ka rēwenatia katoatia.”
Te Mahinga a Īhu ki ngā Kupu Whakarite
(Māka 4.33-34)
34 Ko ēnei mea katoa i kōrerotia e Īhu ki te mano, he mea whakarite; ā, heoi anō āna kupu ki a rātou he kupu whakarite anake. 35 I rite ai tā te poropiti i kōrero ai, i mea ai:
“E puaki i tōku māngai ngā kupu whakarite;
ka kōrerotia e ahau ngā mea
i ngaro nō te tīmatanga rā anō o te ao.”
Ka Whakamārama a Īhu i te Kupu Whakarite o ngā Taru Kino
36 Kātahi ka mahue i a Īhu te mano, ka tomo ia ki te whare. Nā, ka haere mai āna ākonga ki a ia, ka mea, “Whakaaturia mai ki a mātou te kupu i whakaritea ki ngā taru i te māra.”
37 Nā, ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a rātou, “Ko te kairui o te purapura pai ko te Tama a te tangata. 38 Ko te māra ko te ao; ko te purapura pai ko ngā tamariki o te rangatiratanga; ngā taru ko ngā tamariki a te kino; 39 ko te hoariri i ruia ai ko te rēwera; te kotinga ko te mutunga o te ao; ngā kaikokoti ko ngā anahera.
40 “Nā, e huihuia ana ngā taru, e tahuna ana ki te ahi; ka pērā anō i te mutunga o tēnei ao. 41 Ka tono te Tama a te tangata i āna anahera ki te huihui i roto i tōna rangatiratanga i ngā mea katoa e tūtuki ai te waewae, i ngā kaimahi anō i te kino; 42 ā, ka makā e rātou ki roto ki te oumu ahi; ko te wāhi tērā o te tangi me te tetēā o ngā niho. 43 Ko reira te hunga tika whiti ai me te rā i te rangatiratanga o tō rātou Matua. Ki te whai taringa tētahi hei whakarongo, kia rongo ia.”
Te Kupu Whakarite o te Taonga Huna
44 “He rite anō te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te taonga i hunā ki te māra; nō te kitenga a tētahi tangata, nā, ka hunā e ia, ā haere ana, he koa hoki nōna, nā hokona ana āna mea katoa, ā, hokona ana mai taua māra māna.”
Te Kupu Whakarite o te Peara
45 “He rite anō te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te kaihokohoko, e rapu ana i ngā peara papai. 46 Ā, nō tōna kitenga i tētahi peara utu nui, haere ana, hokona ana āna mea katoa, ā, hokona ana mai taua peara māna.”
Te Kupu Whakarite o te Kupenga
47 “He rite anō te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te kupenga i tukua ki te moana, ā, haoa ana he ika o ia āhua, o ia āhua. 48 Ā, ka kī, ka kūmea ki uta, ā, noho ana, kohikohia ana ngā ika papai ki ngā kete, ko ngā mea kikino ia i ākiritia ki waho. 49 Ka pērā anō a te mutunga o te ao. Ka haere ngā anahera, ka wehewehe i te hunga kino i roto i te hunga tika, 50 ā, ka maka i a rātou ki roto ki te oumu ahi; ko te wāhi tērā o te tangi, o te tetēā o ngā niho.”
He Tikanga Hou, he Tikanga Tawhito
51 Ka mea a Īhu ki a rātou, “Kua mātau rānei koutou ki ēnei mea katoa?”
Ka mea rātou ki a ia, “Āe, e te Ariki.”
52 Nā, ka mea ia ki a rātou, “Koia te karaipi, i ākona ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi, i rite ai ki tētahi rangatira whare e whakaputa mai ana i ngā mea hou, i ngā mea tawhito, i roto i tāna toa.”
Te Whakahāweatanga i a Īhu i Nahareta
(Māka 6.1-6; Ruka 4.16-30)
53 Ā, ka mutu ēnei kupu whakarite a Īhu, ka haere atu ia i reira. 54 Ā, ka tae ki tōna kāinga tupu ka ako i a rātou i roto i tō rātou whare karakia, ā, mīharo noa rātou, ka mea, “Nō hea ēnei whakaaro nui me ngā merekara a tēnei tangata? 55 Ehara ianei tēnei i te tama a te kāmura? He teka ianei ko Meri te ingoa o tōna whaea? Ko Hēmi hoki rātou ko Hōhepa, ko Haimona, ko Hūrā, ōna tēina? 56 Me ōna tuāhine, kāhore ianei rātou katoa i a tātou nei? Nō hea rā ēnei mea katoa a tēnei tangata?” 57 Heoi, ka hē rātou ki a ia.
Otirā, ka mea a Īhu ki a rātou, “Kei tōna kāinga, kei tōna whare anake te poropiti hapa ai i te hōnore.” 58 Ā, kīhai i maha ngā merekara i meatia e ia ki reira, i tō rātou whakapono kore hoki.
