Ka Whakaako a Īhu mō te Wehenga Tūturu
(Māka 10.1-12)
1 Ā, ka mutu ēnei kupu a Īhu, ka tūria atu e ia i Karirī, ā, ka tae ki ngā wāhi o Hūria, ki tāwāhi atu o Horano. 2 He rahi hoki te hui i aru i a ia; ā, whakaorangia ana rātou e ia i reira.
3 Nā, ka haere mai ngā Parihi ki a ia, ki te whakamātautau i a ia, ka mea ki a ia, “He mea tika rānei kia whakarērea e te tangata tāna wahine mō tētahi take?”
4 Nā, ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a rātou, “Kīanō koutou i kite noa i hangā rāua e te Kaihanga i te tīmatanga, he tāne, he wahine? 5 I mea anō ia, ‘Mō konei ka mahue i te tangata tōna pāpā, tōna whaea ka piri ki tāna wahine, ā, hei kikokiko kotahi rāua tokorua’? 6 Nā, heoi anō tō rāua tokoruatanga, engari kotahi anō kikokiko. Nā, ko ā te Atua i hono ai, kaua e wehea e te tangata.”
7 Ka mea rātou ki a ia, “He aha rā a Mohi i ako ai kia hoatu he pukapuka whakarere, ka whakarere ai i a ia?”
8 Ka mea ia ki a rātou, “Nā te pakeke o ō koutou ngākau i tukua ai koutou e Mohi kia whakarere i ā koutou wāhine; i te tīmatanga iho ia kāhore i pēnā. 9 Ā, tēnei tāku kupu ki a koutou, Ki te whakarere tētahi i tāna wahine, ehara nei i te take moepuku, ā, ka mārenatia ki tētahi atu, e pūremu ana ia; ā, ki te mārena tētahi i te wahine i whakarērea, e pūremu ana ia.”
10 Ka mea āna ākonga ki a ia, “Ki te pēnei te tikanga mō te tangata rāua ko tāna wahine, ehara te mārena.”
11 Otirā, ka mea ia ki a rātou, “E kore tēnei kupu e rite i ngā tāngata katoa, engari, i te hunga i hoatu ai. 12 He unaka hoki ētahi nō te whānautanga mai i te kōpū o te whaea; ko ētahi unaka he mea whakaūnaka nā te tangata; ko ētahi unaka he mea whakaūnaka nā rātou anō, he whakaaro hoki ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi. Ki te taea tēnei te whakarite e tētahi, māna e whakarite.”
Ka Manaakitia e Īhu ngā Tamariki Nohinohi
(Māka 10.13-16; Ruka 18.15-17)
13 I reira, ka kawea mai he tamariki nonohi ki a ia, kia whakapā ai ia i ōna ringa ki a rātou, kia īnoi; ā, rīria iho rātou e ngā ākonga. 14 Nā, ko te kīanga a Īhu, “Tukua mai ngā tamariki nonohi, aua hoki e āraia atu tā rātou haere mai ki ahau; nō ngā pēnei hoki te rangatiratanga o te rangi.”
15 Ā, whakapākia iho e ia ōna ringa ki a rātou, ā, haere atu ana i reira.
He Taitama Whai Taonga
(Māka 10.17-31; Ruka 18.18-30)
16 Nā, ka haere mai tētahi ki a ia, ka mea, “E te Kaiwhakaako, he aha te mahi pai māku, e whiwhi ai ahau ki te ora tonu?”
17 Nā, ko tāna meatanga ki a ia, “He aha ka ui koe ki ahau mō te mea pai? Tērā anō tētahi i pai, kotahi tonu; ki te mea koe kia tomo ki te ora, whakaritea ngā ture.”
18 Ka mea ia ki a ia, “Ko ēhea?”
Nā, ka mea a Īhu, “Kaua e patu tangata; kaua e pūremu; kaua e tāhae; kaua e whakapae teka; 19 Whakahōnoretia tōu pāpā me tōu whaea; me tēnei; kia aroha ki tōu hoa tata ānō ko koe.”
20 Ka mea taua taitama ki a ia, “Kua rite i ahau ēnei mea katoa nō tōku tamarikitanga; tēnā hoki tētahi mea e hapa ana i ahau?”
21 Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, “Ki te mea koe kia tino tika, haere, hokona ōu taonga, ka hoatu ki ngā rawakore, ā, e whai taonga koe ki te rangi; ā, haere mai i muri i ahau.”
22 Nā, ka rongo taua taitama i taua kupu, haere pōuri ana ia, he maha hoki ōna taonga.
23 Ka mea a Īhu ki āna ākonga, “He pono tāku kupu ki a koutou, e tapoko whakauaua te tangata taonga ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi. 24 Tēnei anō tāku kupu ki a koutou, he ngāwari kē atu te haere o te kāmera rā te kōwhao o te ngira i te haere o te tangata taonga ki roto ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.”
25 Ā, nō ka rongo āna ākonga, nui rawa tō rātou mīharo, ka mea, “Ko wai rā e ora?”
26 Nā, ka titiro a Īhu ki a rātou, ka mea, “Ki te tangata e kore tēnei e taea, ki te Atua ia e taea ngā mea katoa.”
27 Kātahi, ka whakahoki a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, “Nā, kua mahue nei i a mātou ngā mea katoa, kua aru nei i a koe, he aha rā mā mātou?”
28 Ka kī a Īhu ki a rātou, “He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, ko koutou i aru nei i ahau, kia taea te whānautanga houtanga, te wā e noho ai te Tama a te tangata ki runga ki te torōna o tōna korōria, ka noho anō koutou ki runga ki ētahi torōna kotahi tekau mā rua, ki te whakawā i ngā iwi kotahi tekau mā rua o Īharaira. 29 Ā, ki te mea kua mahue i tētahi he whare, he tēina, he tuāhine rānei, he pāpā, he whaea, he tamariki, he whenua, i tōna whakaaro ki tōku ingoa, ka tātakirau ngā mea e riro i a ia, ā, ka whiwhi ia ki te ora tonu. 30 He tokomaha ia ō mua e waiho ki muri; ko ō muri ki mua.”
