1 Now the passover and the {feast of} unleavened bread was after two days. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might seize him by subtlety and kill him.

2 For they said, Not in the feast, lest perhaps there be a tumult of the people.

3 And when he was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he lay at table, there came a woman having an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly; and having broken the alabaster flask, she poured it out upon his head.

4 And there were some indignant in themselves, and saying, Why has this waste been made of the ointment?

5 for this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor. And they spoke very angrily at her.

6 But Jesus said, Let her alone; why do ye trouble her? she has wrought a good work as to me;

7 for ye have the poor always with you, and whenever ye would ye can do them good; but me ye have not always.

8 What *she* could she has done. She has beforehand anointed my body for the burial.

9 And verily I say unto you, Wheresoever these glad tidings may be preached in the whole world, what this {woman} has done shall be also spoken of for a memorial of her.

10 And Judas Iscariote, one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests that he might deliver him up to them;

11 and they, when they heard it, rejoiced, and promised him to give money. And he sought how he could opportunely deliver him up.

12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they slew the passover, his disciples say to him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?

13 And he sends two of his disciples, and says to them, Go into the city, and a man shall meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him.

14 And wheresoever he enters, say to the master of the house, The Teacher says, Where is my guest-chamber where I may eat the passover with my disciples?

15 and *he* will shew you a large upper room furnished ready. There make ready for us.

16 And his disciples went away and came into the city, and found as he had said to them; and they made ready the passover.

17 And when evening was come, he comes with the twelve.

18 And as they lay at table and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say to you, One of you shall deliver me up; he who is eating with me.

19 And they began to be grieved, and to say to him, one by one, Is it *I*? {and another, Is it *I*?}

20 But he answered and said to them, One of the twelve, he who dips with me in the dish.

21 The Son of man goes indeed as it is written concerning him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is delivered up; {it were} good for that man if he had not been born.

22 And as they were eating, Jesus, having taken bread, when he had blessed, broke {it}, and gave {it} to them, and said, Take {this}: this is my body.

23 And having taken {the} cup, when he had given thanks, he gave {it} to them, and they all drank out of it.

24 And he said to them, This is my blood, that of the {new} covenant, that shed for many.

25 Verily I say to you, I will no more drink at all of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

26 And having sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.

27 And Jesus says to them, All ye shall be offended, for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered abroad.

28 But after I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

29 But Peter said to him, Even if all should be offended, yet not *I*.

30 And Jesus says to him, Verily I say to thee, that thou to-day, in this night, before {the} cock shall crow twice, thou shalt thrice deny me.

31 But he said {so much} exceedingly the more, If I should have to die with thee, I will in no wise deny thee. And likewise said they all too.

32 And they come to a place of which the name {is} Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit here while I shall pray.

33 And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and he began to be amazed and oppressed in spirit.

34 And he says to them, My soul is full of grief even unto death; abide here and watch.

35 And, going forward a little, he fell upon the earth; and he prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.

36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee: take away this cup from me; but not what *I* will, but what *thou* {wilt}.

37 And he comes and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, Simon, dost thou sleep? Hast thou not been able to watch one hour?

38 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed {is} willing, but the flesh weak.

39 And going away, he prayed again, saying the same thing.

40 And returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy; and they knew not what they should answer him.

41 And he comes the third time and says to them, Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough; the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is delivered up into the hands of sinners.

42 Arise, let us go; behold, he that delivers me up has drawn nigh.

43 And immediately, while he was yet speaking, Judas comes up, {being} one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd, with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

44 Now he that delivered him up had given them a sign between them, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; seize him, and lead {him} away safely.

45 And being come, straightway coming up to him, he says, Rabbi, Rabbi; and he covered him with kisses.

46 And they laid their hands upon him and seized him.

47 But a certain one of those who stood by, having drawn his sword, struck the bondman of the high priest, and took off his ear.

48 And Jesus answering said to them, Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and sticks to take me?

49 I was daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me; but {it is} that the scriptures may be fulfilled.

50 And all left him and fled.

51 And a certain young man followed him with a linen cloth cast about his naked {body}; and {the young men} seize him;

52 but he, leaving the linen cloth behind {him}, fled from them naked.

53 And they led away Jesus to the high priest. And there come together to him all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

54 And Peter followed him at a distance, till {he was} within the court of the high priest's palace; and he was sitting with the officers and warming himself in the light {of the fire}.

55 And the chief priests and the whole sanhedrim sought testimony against Jesus to cause him to be put to death, and did not find {any}.

56 For many bore false witness against him, and their testimony did not agree.

57 And certain persons rose up and bore false witness against him, saying,

58 *We* heard him saying, *I* will destroy this temple which is made with hands, and in the course of three days I will build another not made with hands.

59 And neither thus did their testimony agree.

60 And the high priest, rising up before them all, asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? What do these testify against thee?

61 But he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and says to him, *Thou* art the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

62 And Jesus said, *I* am, and ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.

63 And the high priest, having rent his clothes, says, What need have we any more of witnesses?

64 Ye have heard the blasphemy; what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.

65 And some began to spit upon him, and cover up his face, and buffet him, and say to him, Prophesy; and the officers struck him with the palms of their hands.

66 And Peter being below in the palace-court, there comes one of the maids of the high priest,

67 and seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, says, And *thou* wast with the Nazarene, Jesus.

68 But he denied, saying, I know not nor understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the vestibule; and a cock crew.

69 And the maid, seeing him, again began to say to those that stood by, This is {one} of them.

70 And he again denied. And again, after a little, those that stood by said to Peter, Truly thou art {one} of them, for also thou art a Galilean.

71 But he began to curse and to swear, I know not this man of whom ye speak.

72 And the second time a cock crew. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus said to him, Before {the} cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice; and when he thought thereon he wept.

1 Na, kia rua ake nga ra ko te kapenga me te hakari o te taro rewenakore: na ka rapu nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi i tetahi tinihanga e mau ai ia, e whakamatea ai.

2 I mea hoki ratou, Kauaka i te hakari, kei ngangau te iwi.

3 A, i a ia i Petani i te whare o Haimona repera, i a ia ano e noho ana ka haere mai tetahi wahine me tetahi pouaka kohatu, ki tonu i te hinu kakara, he tino nara, he mea utu nui; a wahia ana e ia te pouaka kohatu, ringihia ana ki tona matenga.

4 I riri ano etahi i roto i a ratou, i mea, Hei aha tenei maumau o te hinu kakara?

5 Maha atu hoki i te toru rau nga pene te utu me i hokona tenei hinu, na ka hoatu ki te hunga rawakore. Na ka amuamu ratou ki a ia.

6 Ka mea atu a Ihu, Waiho atu u ana; he aha ta koutou e whakapawerawera na i a ia? he mahi pai tana i mea nei ki ahau.

7 Kei a koutou tonu hoki te hunga rawakore i nga wa katoa, hei atawhaitanga hoki ratou ma koutou i nga wa e pai ai koutou: e kore ia ahau e noho tonu ki a koutou.

8 Kua mahia e ia te mea e taea e ia: kua whakawahia e ia i mua nei toku tinana mo te tanumanga.

9 He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ko nga wahi katoa o te ao e kauwhautia ai tenei rongopai, ka korerotia ano ta tenei wahine i mea ai, hei whakamahara ki a ia.

10 Na ka haere a Hura Ikariote, tetahi o te tekau ma rua, ki nga tohunga nui, ki te tuku i a ia ki a ratou.

11 A, no ka rongo ratou, ka hari, ka whakaae kia hoatu he moni mana. Na ka rapu ia ki te wa pai e tukua ai ia.

12 A, i te ra tuatahi o te taro rewenakore, i te wa e patua ai te kapenga, ka mea ana akonga ki a ia, Ko hea koe pai ai kia haere matou ki te taka, kia kai ai koe i te kapenga?

13 Na ka tonoa e ia tokorua o ana akonga, ka mea ki a raua, haere ki te pa, a ka tutaki mai ki a korua he tangata e mau ana i te taha wai: haere i muri i a ia.

14 A ka mea ki te tangata o te whare e tomo ai ia, E mea ana te Kaiwhakaako, Kei hea te ruma e kai ai matou ko aku akonga i te kapenga?

15 A mana tonu e whakaatu ki a korua he ruma nui i runga, oti rawa te whariki, te whakapai: hei reira taka ai ma tatou.

16 Na haere ana ana akonga, a, no te taenga ki te pa, ka kite i tana i korero ai ki a raua: a taka ana e raua te kapenga.

17 A, no ka ahiahi, ka haere atu ia me te tekau ma rua.

18 I a ratou e noho ana, e kai ana, ka mea a Ihu, He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ko tetahi o koutou, kei toku taha nei e kai ana, mana ahau e tuku.

19 Na ka pa te pouri ki a ratou, ka ki takitahi ki a ia, Ko ahau koia?

20 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ko tetahi o te tekau ma rua, ko ia e toutou tahi nei maua ki te rihi.

21 E haere ana te Tama a te tangata, e pera ana me te mea i tuhituhia mona: otiia aue te mate mo te tangata e tukua ai te Tama a te tangata! he mea pai ke mo taua tangata me i kaua ia e whanau.

22 A, i a ratou e kai ana, ka mau ia ki te taro, a, ka mutu te whakapai, ka whawhati, na ka hoatu ki a ratou, ka mea, Tangohia, kainga: ko toku tinana tenei.

23 Na ka mau ia ki te kapu, a, ka mutu te whakawhetai, ka hoatu ki a ratou: a ka inumia e ratou katoa.

24 A ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ko oku toto enei, ko o te kawenata hou, e whakahekea ana mo te tini.

25 He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, E kore ahau e inu atu ano i te hua o te waina, kia taea ra ano taua ra e inumia houtia ai e ahau i te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

26 A, no ka mutu ta ratou himene, ka haere ratou ki Maunga Oriwa.

27 Katahi a Ihu ka mea ki a ratou, Ko koutou katoa na ka he: kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, Ka patua e ahau te hepara, a ko nga hipi ka whakamararatia.

28 Otira, muri iho i toku aranga, ka haere ahau i mua i a koutou ki Kariri.

29 Na ka mea a Pita ki a ia, Ahakoa he te katoa, ko ahau e kore.

30 A ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, He pono taku e mea nei ki a koe, Ko akuanei, i tenei po ano, i te mea kahore ano kia rua nga tangihanga o te tikaokao, ka toru au whakakorenga i ahau.

31 Katahi ka tino arita rawa tana meatanga atu, Ahakoa kua takoto te tikanga kia mate tahi au me koe, e kore ahau e whakakahore i a koe. I pera ano te korero a ratou katoa.

32 A ka tae ratou ki tetahi wahi, e huaina ana ko Kehemane: na ka mea atu ia ki ana akonga, Hei konei koutou noho ai, kia inoi ahau.

33 Na ka mau ia ki a Pita ratou ko Hemi, ko Hoani, a ka timata te koera, te tumatatenga;

34 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kei te tino pehia toku wairua e te pouri, tata pu ki te mate: noho iho koutou i konei, kia mataara.

35 Na ka haere ia ki pahaki tata atu, ka hinga ki te whenua, ka inoi, me kahore e ahei kia pahemo atu tenei haora i a ia.

36 A ka mea ia, E Apa, e Pa, ka taea e koe nga mea katoa; tangohia atu tenei kapu i ahau: otiia kaua e waiho i taku e pai ai, engari i tau.

37 Na ka haere ia, ka rokohanga atu e moe ana ratou, a ka mea ia ki a Pita, E Haimona, kei te moe ia koe? e kore ranei e taea e koe te mataara kia kotahi haora?

38 Kia mataara, me te inoi, kei uru koutou ki te whakamatautauranga. Kei te hihiko te wairua, ko te kikokiko ia kei te ngoikore.

39 Na ka haere atu ano ia, ka inoi, me te whakahua i aua kupu ano.

40 Na ka hoki mai ano ia, ka rokohanga e moe ana ratou, he nui hoki te taimaha o o ratou kanohi; a kihai ratou i matau ki ta ratou e whakahoki ai ki a ia.

41 Na haere ana ano ia, ko te toru o nga haerenga, ka mea ki a ratou, E moe ra, whakata i a koutou: heoi ra, kua taea te haora; na, ka tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga ringa o te hunga hara.

42 Maranga, ka haere tatou; na, ka tata te kaituku i ahau.

43 Na inamata, i a ia tonu e korero ana, kua puta a Hura, tetahi o te tekau ma rua, me te tini o te tangata, me nga hoari, me nga patu, i ahu mai i nga tohunga nui, i nga karaipi, i nga kaumatua.

44 Na kua oti tetahi tohu te whakarite ki a ratou e tona kaituku; i mea ia, Ko taku tangata e kihi ai, ko ia tera; hopukina, kia mau te arahi atu.

45 Na, i tona taenga mai, tika tonu ki a ia, ka mea, E Rapi; a kihi ana i a ia.

46 Na ka mau o ratou ringa ki a ia, a hopukina ana ia.

47 Na ka unuhia e tetahi o te hunga e tu ana i reira tana hoari, haua iho e ia te pononga a te tohunga nui, poroa ana tona taringa.

48 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, He tahae ahau, i haere mai ai koutou me nga hoari, me nga patu, ki te hopu i ahau?

49 I a koutou ahau e whakaako ana i te temepara i tena ra, i tena ra, a kihai koutou i hopu i ahau: otira i mahia tenei mea kia rite ai nga karaipiture.

50 Na whakarere ana ratou katoa i a ia, oma ana.

51 Na tera tetahi taitamariki i aru tahi mai me ia, takaia ai he kakahu rinena ki runga ake i tona kirikau: na ka hopukina ia e ratou:

52 Otira i whakarerea atu e ia te kakahu rinena, a oma tahanga atu ana.

53 Na ka arahina atu e ratou a Ihu ki te tino tohunga: a ka huihui mai ki a ia nga tohunga nui katoa, nga kaumatua me nga karaipi.

54 Na tera a Pita te aru ra i a ia i tawhiti, tae noa ki roto, ki te marae o te tino tohunga; a tera te noho ra me nga kaimahi, painaina ai i a ia i te taha o te ahi.

55 Na i rapu nga tohunga nui me te runanga katoa i te kororo mo Ihu, e whakamatea ai; heoi kihai i kitea.

56 He tokomaha hoki nga kaiwhakapae teka mona, otiia kihai i rite a ratou korero.

57 Na ka whakatika etahi, ka whakapae teka ki a ia, ka mea,

58 I rongo matou ki a ia e mea ana, Maku e whakahoro tenei whare tapu i hanga nei e te ringa, a kia toru nga ra ka hanga e ahau tetahi atu, ehara i te ringa i mahi.

59 A ahakoa tera kihai a ratou korero i riterite.

60 Na ka whakatika e tohunga nui i waenganui, ka ui ki a Ihu, ka mea, Kahore au kupu? he aha ta enei e whakaatu nei mou?

61 Heoi kihai ia i kuihi, kahore hoki he kupu i whakahokia e ia. Na ka ui ano te tino tohunga, ka mea ki a ia, Ko koe ranei a te Karaiti, te Tama a Tera e whakapaingia nei?

62 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ko ahau ia: a tera koutou e kite i te Tama a te tangata e noho ana i te ringa matau o te kaha, e haere mai ana me nga kapua o te rangi.

63 Katahi ka haehae te tino tohunga i ona kakahu, ka mea, hei aha atu ma tatou etahi kaiwhakaatu ano?

64 Kua rongo koutou ki te kohukohu: e pehea ana o koutou whakaaro? Na ka whakaae ratou katoa ka tika te mate mona.

65 Katahi ka anga etahi ka tuwha ki a ia, ka arai i tona kanohi, ka kuru i a ia, a ka mea ki a ia, Poropiti mai: a ka pakipakia ia e nga kaimahi ki o ratou ringa.

66 A, i a Pita i te marae i raro, ka haere mai tetahi o nga kotiro a te tino tohunga:

67 A, i tona kitenga i a Pita e painaina ana, ka titiro atu ki a ia, a ka mea, Ko koe ano tetahi i te tangata o Nahareta, ara i a Ihu.

68 Otira ka whakakahore ia, ka mea, Kahore rawa ahau i matau, i marama ranei ki tau e korero mai na: na ka puta atu ia ki te whakamahau: a ka tangi te tikaokao.

69 A ka kite te kotiro i a ia, ka anga ano ka korero ki te hunga e tu tata ana, No ratou hoki tenei.

70 Otira ka whakakahore ano ia. A muri tata iho ka korero ano ki a Pita te hunga e tu tata ana, He pono ko koe tetahi o ratou; no Kariri hoki koe.

71 Katahi ia ka timata te kanga, te oati, Kahore ahau e matau ki tena tangata e korero na koutou.

72 I reira ka tangi ano te tikaokao, ko te tuarua o nga tangihanga. Na ka mahara a Pita ki te kupu i korero ai a Ihu ki a ia, E kore e tuarua te tangi o te tikaokao, ka toru au whakakahoretanga i ahau. A ka whakaaroa iho e ia, na ka tangi.
