1 Na i te ra tuatahi o te wiki, i te tino ata po, ka haere mai ratou ki te urupa, me te mau mai i nga mea kakara kua mahia nei e ratou.

2 A rokohanga atu e ratou kua hurihia te kamaka i te urupa.

3 A ka tomo ratou ki roto; kihai i kitea te tinana o te Ariki, o Ihu.

4 Na, i a ratou e pokaikaha ana ki tenei, na, tu ana nga tangata tokorua i o ratou taha, uira tonu nga kakahu.

5 Na, i a ratou e mataku ana, e kupapa iho ana o ratou kanohi ki te whenua, ka mea raua ki a ratou, he aha koutou ka rapu ai i te tangata ora i roto i te hunga mate?

6 Kahore ia i konei, engari kua ara: kia mahara ki tana i mea ai ki a koutou i a ia ano i Kariri,

7 Ki tana meatanga, Kua takoto te tikanga kia tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga ringa o te hunga hara, kia ripekatia, a i te toru o nga ra ka ara.

8 Na ka mahara ratou ki ana kupu;

9 A hoki mai ana i te urupa, ka korero i enei mea katoa ki te tekau ma tahi, ki a ratou ko era atu katoa.

10 Na ko Meri Makarini ratou ko Hoana, ko Meri whaea o Hemi, ko o ratou hoa wahine, nga kaikorero i enei mea ki nga apotoro.

11 A ko te ahua o aua kupu ki ta ratou whakaaro he mea tito noa; kihai i whakaponohia e ratou.

12 Katahi ka whakatika a Pita, ka oma ki te urupa: a, ko tona pikonga iho ka kite, ko nga kakahu takai anake e takoto ana; a hoki ana ki tona whare me te miharo ano i roto i a ia ki taua mea i meatia.

13 Na tokorua o ratou e haere ana i taua ra ki tetahi kainga, e ono tekau paronga te matara i Hiruharama, ko Emauha te ingoa.

14 E korerorero ana hoki raua tetahi ki tetahi ki enei mea katoa i meinga.

15 A, i a raua e korerorero ana, e uiui ana ki a raua, na ko Ihu, ko ia tonu, kua whakatata, a haere tahi ana me raua.

16 I puritia hoki o raua kanohi, i kore ai raua e mohio ki a ia.

17 Na ka mea ia ki a raua, he aha enei kupu e korero nei korua ki a korua, i a korua e haere nei? Na ka tu raua, kihai i korikori, me te ahua pouri.

18 Na ka whakahoki tetahi, ko Kereopa te ingoa, ka mea ki a ia, I Hiruharama koe e noho ana, a ko koe anake kahore i mohio ki nga mea kua meinga nei ki reira i enei ra?

19 Ka mea ia ki a raua, Ki ehea mea? Ka mea raua ki a ia, Ki nga mea o Ihu o Nahareta, he poropiti hoki ia, he kaha tana mahi, tana kupu, i te aroaro o te Atua, o te iwi katoa:

20 Ki tona hoatutanga e nga tohunga nui, e o matou rangatira hoki, kia tukua ki te mate, a ripekatia ana ia.

21 I tumanako ano matou ki a ia, mana e whakaora a Iharaira. Na i te taha o enei mea katoa, ko te toru tenei o nga ra i meinga ai enei mea.

22 A miharo noa iho matou ki etahi wahine o matou, i haere i te atatu ki te urupa;

23 Heoi, i te korenga i kitea e ratou tona tinana, ka hoki mai, ka mea, i kitea ano e ratou he putanga anahera, e ki ana mai kei te ora ia.

24 Na ka haere atu etahi o o maua hoa ki te urupa, a rokohanga atu, rite tonu ki ta nga wahine i korero ai: otira kihai ia i kitea.

25 Na ko tana meatanga ki a raua, E te hunga whakaarokore, ngakau puhoi ki te whakapono ki nga mea katoa i korero ai nga poropiti:

26 Kahore ianei i takoto te tikanga kia pa enei mea ki a te Karaiti, kia tomo ia ki tona kororia?

27 Na ka timata ia ki ta Mohi, ki ta nga poropiti katoa, whakaaturia ana ki a raua nga mea mona o nga karaipiture katoa.

28 A ka tata ki te kainga i haere ai raua: na ka ahu atu ia, me te mea e haere tonu ana ia.

29 Na ka tohe raua ki a ia, ka mea, E noho ki a maua: kua ahiahi hoki, kua titaha te ra. Na ka tomo atu ia, ka noho ki a raua.

30 A, i tona nohoanga iho ki a raua ki te kai, ka mau ia ki te taro, ka whakapai, ka whawhati, a hoatu ana ki a raua.

31 Na kua kite o raua kanohi, a ka mohio ki a ia; a ngaro whakarere atu ia i a raua.

32 A ka mea raua ki a raua, Kihai koia o taua ngakau i mumura i roto i a taua, i a ia e korero ana ki a taua i te ara, e whakaatu ana i nga karaipiture ki a taua?

33 Na ka whakatika raua i taua haora ano, a hoki ana ki Hiruharama, a rokohanga atu kua huihui te tekau ma tahi me o ratou hoa,

34 E mea ana, Koia rawa ano! kua ara te Ariki, kua puta ki a Haimona.

35 Na ka korerotia e raua nga meatanga i te ara, to raua mohiotanga hoki ki a ia i te whatiwhatinga o te taro.

36 A, i a raua e korero ana i enei mea, na tera ia tu ana i waenganui o ratou, mea ana ki a ratou, Kia tau te rangimarie ki a koutou.

37 Otira koera ana ratou, wehi ana; i mahara hoki he wairua ta ratou i kite ai.

38 Na ko tana meatanga ki a ratou, He aha koutou ka pororaru ai? na te aha hoki i puta ake ai nga whakaaroaronga i roto i o koutou ngakau?

39 Tirohia oku ringa me oku waewae, ko ahau tonu tenei: whawhakia ahau, kia kite ai koutou; kahore hoki o te wairua kikokiko, wheua ranei, penei i oku e kitea mai na e koutou.

40 A, no ka korerotia e ia tenei, ka whakakitea e ia ki a ratou ona ringa me ona waewae.

41 A, i a ratou kahore nei i whakapono i te hari, e miharo ana hoki, ka mea ia ki a ratou, he kai ranei ta koutou kei konei?

42 Na ka hoatu e ratou ki a ia tetahi ika, he mea tunutunu, me te honi.

43 Na ka tango ia, a kainga ana e ia i to ratou aroaro.

44 I mea ano ia ki a ratou, Ko nga kupu enei i korero ai ahau ki a koutou, i ahau ano i a koutou, me whakarite nga mea katoa kua oti te tuhituhi i roto i te ture a Mohi, i nga poropiti, i nga waiata, moku.

45 Katahi ia ka whakamakoha i o ratou hinengaro, kia matau ai ki nga karaipiture,

46 Ka mea ki a ratou, Ko te mea tenei i tuhituhia, ko te tikanga ano tenei, ko te Karaiti kia whakamamaetia, kia ara ano i te hunga mate i te toru o nga ra:

47 Kia kauwhautia hoki te ripeneta me te murunga hara i runga i tona ingoa ki nga tauiwi katoa; ki Hiruharama timata ai.

48 Na ko koutou hei kaiwhakaatu mo enei mea.

49 Nana, maku e tuku ki a koutou te mea i korerotia i mua e toku Matua: otiia e noho koutou ki te pa, ki Hiruharama, kia whiwhi ra ano ki te kaha i runga.

50 Na arahina ana ratou e ia ki waho, ki Petani, na kua ara ona ringa, whakapaingia ana ratou e ia.

51 A, i a ia e whakapai ana i a ratou, ka mawehe atu ia i a ratou, kahakina atu ana ki te rangi.

52 Na ka koropiko ratou ki a ia, a hoki ana ki Hiruharama, he nui hoki te koa:

53 A noho tonu ai ratou i te temepara, me te whakapai ki te Atua. Amine.

1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came unto the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared. 2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. 3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 And it came to pass, while they were perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel: 5 and as they were affrighted and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? 6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, 7 saying that the Son of man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again. 8 And they remembered his words, 9 and returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest. 10 Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James: and the other women with them told these things unto the apostles. 11 And these words appeared in their sight as idle talk; and they disbelieved them. 12 But Peter arose, and ran unto the tomb; and stooping and looking in, he seeth the linen cloths by themselves; and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass.

13 And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was threescore furlongs from Jerusalem. 14 And they communed with each other of all these things which had happened. 15 And it came to pass, while they communed and questioned together, that Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. 16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him. 17 And he said unto them, What communications are these that ye have one with another, as ye walk? And they stood still, looking sad. 18 And one of them, named Cleopas, answering said unto him, Dost thou alone sojourn in Jerusalem and not know the things which are come to pass there in these days? 19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people: 20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. 21 But we hoped that it was he who should redeem Israel. Yea and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things came to pass. 22 Moreover certain women of our company amazed us, having been early at the tomb; 23 and when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. 24 And certain of them that were with us went to the tomb, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not. 25 And he said unto them, O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Behooved it not the Christ to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory? 27 And beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. 28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go further. 29 And they constrained him, saying, Abide with us; for it is toward evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in to abide with them. 30 And it came to pass, when he had sat down with them to meat, he took the bread and blessed; and breaking it he gave to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. 32 And they said one to another, Was not our heart burning within us, while he spake to us in the way, while he opened to us the scriptures? 33 And they rose up that very hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, 34 saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. 35 And they rehearsed the things that happened in the way, and how he was known of them in the breaking of the bread.

36 And as they spake these things, he himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they beheld a spirit. 38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do questionings arise in your heart? 39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye behold me having. 40 And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 And while they still disbelieved for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here anything to eat? 42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish. 43 And he took it, and ate before them.

44 And he said unto them, These are my words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me. 45 Then opened he their mind, that they might understand the scriptures; 46 and he said unto them, Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day; 47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 48 Ye are witnesses of these things. 49 And behold, I send forth the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on high.

50 And he led them out until they were over against Bethany: and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them. 51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he parted from them, and was carried up into heaven. 52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy: 53 and were continually in the temple, blessing God.
