Ka Whakatūpato a Īhu mō ngā Kaiwhakaako o te Ture, me ngā Parihi
(Māka 12.38-39; Ruka 11.43, 46; 20.45-46)
1 Me i reira ka kōrero a Īhu ki te mano, ki āna ākonga hoki, 2 ka mea: “Kei te nohoanga o Mohi ngā karaipi rātou ko ngā Parihi e noho ana; 3 ko ngā mea katoa e mea ai rātou hei pupuri mā koutou, puritia, mahia; kei rite ia ā koutou mahi ki ā rātou mahi; ko tā rātou hoki he kōrero, kāhore he mahi. 4 E hereherea ana hoki e rātou ngā wahanga taimaha, he uaua me ka pīkaua, ā, whakawahā iho ki runga ki ngā pokohiwi o te tangata; heoi, kāhore rātou e pai kia whakakorikoria ki tētahi o ō rātou maihao.
5 “Ko ā rātou mahi katoa e meatia ana hei mātakitaki mā te tangata; e whakawhānuitia ana e rātou ā rātou pairakere; e whakanuia ana anō ngā tāniko o ō rātou kākahu. 6 Ko tā rātou e rawe ai ko ngā nohoanga rangatira i ngā hākari, me ngā nohoanga rangatira i ngā whare karakia, 7 me ngā ohatanga i ngā kāinga hokohoko, ā, kia karangatia e te tangata, ‘E Rapi.’
8 “Otiia, aua koutou e karangatia, ‘E Rapi,’ kotahi hoki tō koutou kaiwhakaako; ā, he tuākana, he tēina, koutou katoa. 9 Kaua anō tētahi e kīia hei matua mō koutou i runga i te whenua; kotahi hoki tō koutou Matua, ko tērā i te rangi. 10 Kaua anō koutou e kīia he kaiārahi, kotahi anō tō koutou kaiārahi, ko te Karaiti. 11 Ko te mea nui rawa hoki o koutou, hei kaimahi ia mā koutou. 12 Ki te whakahira hoki tētahi i a ia, ka whakaititia, ā, ki te whakaiti tētahi i a ia, ka whakahirangia.”
Ka Whakahē a Īhu i ō Rātou Tinihanga
(Māka 12.40; Ruka 11.39-42, 44, 52; 20.47)
13 “Auē te mate mō koutou, e ngā karaipi, e ngā Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! E tūtakina ana hoki e koutou te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki ngā tāngata. Kāhore koutou e tomo, kāhore anō e tukua te hunga e tomo ana kia tapoko. 14 Auē te mate mō koutou, e ngā karaipi, e ngā Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! Nō te mea, ka pau i a koutou ngā whare o ngā pouaru, ā, e māminga ana ki te īnoi roa; mō reira he nui rawa te hē e tau ki a koutou.
15 “Auē te mate mō koutou, e ngā karaipi, e ngā Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! E taiāwhiotia ana hoki e koutou te moana me te whenua, kia tahuri mai ai tētahi hei porohiraiti, ā, nō ka riro mai, ka meinga ia e koutou hei tamaiti mō Kehena, kino noa atu i a koutou.
16 “Auē te mate mō koutou, e ngā kaiārahi matapō, e mea nei, ‘Ki te oatitia te whare tapu e tētahi, he mea noa anō; otirā, ki te oatitia e tētahi te kōura o te whare tapu, ka mau tāna!’ 17 E ngā kūware, e ngā matapō, ko tēhea te mea nui, ko te kōura rānei, ko te whare tapu rānei i tapu ai te kōura?
18 “Me tēnei, ‘Ki te oatitia e tētahi te āta, he mea noa anō; otirā, ki te oatitia te whakahere i runga i te āta, ka mau tāna.’ 19 E ngā kūware, e ngā matapō, ko tēhea te mea nui, ko te whakahere, ko te āta rānei, i tapu ai te whakahere? 20 Nā, ki te oatitia e tētahi te āta, e oatitia ana e ia tērā mea, me ngā mea katoa i runga. 21 Ki te oatitia e tētahi te whare tapu, e oatitia ana e ia tērā mea, me te kainoho o roto. 22 Ki te oatitia hoki e tētahi te rangi, e oatitia ana e ia te torōna o te Atua, me te kainoho o runga.
23 “Auē te mate mō koutou, e ngā karaipi, e ngā Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! E hoatu ana e koutou te wāhi whakatekau o te miniti, o te anihi, o te kumine, ā, kapea ake ngā mea nunui o te ture, te whakawā, te tohu tangata, te whakapono; he tika kia meatia e koutou ēnei, engari kaua tērā rā e kapea. 24 E ngā kaiārahi matapō, e tātari nei i te waeroa, ā, horomia ake te kāmera.
25 “Auē te mate mō koutou e ngā karaipi, e ngā Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! E horoi nei i waho o te kapu, o te pereti, ko roto ia kī tonu i te pāhua, i te taikaha. 26 E te Parihi matapō, mātua horoia a roto o te kapu, o te pereti, kia mā ai hoki a waho.
27 “Auē te mate mō koutou, e ngā karaipi, e ngā Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! He rite hoki koutou ki ngā urupā kua oti te pani ki te paru mā, ko waho he ātaahua ki te titiro atu, ko roto ia kī tonu i ngā kōiwi tūpāpaku, i ngā mea poke katoa. 28 He pēnā hoki koutou, ko waho e tika ana ki tā te tangata titiro, ko roto ia e kī ana i te tinihanga, i te kino.”
Ka Waitohu a Īhu i ō Rātou Whuinga
(Ruka 11.47-51)
29 “Auē te mate mō koutou, e ngā karaipi, e ngā Parihi, e te hunga tinihanga! Ko koutou nei hoki hei hanga i ngā tanumanga o ngā poropiti, hei whakapaipai i ngā urupā o ngā tāngata tika, 30 me te kī anō, ‘Me i ngā rā tātou o ō tātou mātua, kīhai tātou i uru tahi me rātou ki te whakaheke i te toto o ngā poropiti.’ 31 He whakaatu tērā nā koutou, ko koutou ngā tamariki a te hunga nāna i patu ngā poropiti. 32 Tēnā rā, kia kī i a koutou te mēhua a ō koutou mātua. 33 E ngā neke, e te uri nākahi, me aha ka rere ai koutou i te kupu tuku ki te rēinga?
34 “Nā, ka tonoa atu e ahau ki a koutou ngā poropiti, ngā tāngata mahara, ngā karaipi; ko ētahi o rātou e whakamatea e koutou, e rīpekatia; ko ētahi e whiua i roto i ō koutou whare karakia, e whāia hoki i tētahi pā ki tētahi pā. 35 Ā, ka utaina ki a koutou ngā toto katoa o te hunga tika i whakahekea ki te whenua, nō te toto o Āpera, o te tangata tika tae iho ki te toto o Hakaraia, o te tama a Parakia, i kōhurutia e koutou i waenganui o te whare tapu, o te āta. 36 He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, tērā e pā ēnei mea katoa ki tēnei whakatupuranga.”
Te Aroha o Īhu mō Hiruhārama
(Ruka 13.34-35)
37 “E Hiruhārama, e Hiruhārama, e whakamate nei i ngā poropiti, e āki nei ki te kāmaka i te hunga e tonoa ana ki a koe, anō te tini o āku meatanga kia whakaminea āu tamariki, kia pērātia me te heihei e whakamine nei i āna pī ki raro i ōna parirau, ā, kīhai koutou i pai! 38 Nā, ka mahue atu ki a koutou tō koutou whare kia takoto noa ana. 39 Ko tāku kupu hoki tēnei ki a koutou, e kore koutou e kite i ahau ā mua ake nei, kia mea rā anō koutou, ‘Ka whakapaingia ia e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki.’ ”
