28 A, no ka mutu enei korero, ka turia atu e ia ki mua, ka haere ki Hiruharama.

29 A, no ka tata ia ki Petapaki, ki Petani, ki te maunga e kiia nei ko to nga Oriwa, na tokorua ana akonga i tonoa e ia.

30 I mea ia, Haere korua ki te kainga e anga mai ana ki a korua; a, no ka tomo atu, ka kite korua i tetahi kuao kaihe e here ana, he mea kahore ano i nohoia noatia e te tangata: wetekina, arahina mai.

31 Ki te mea hoki tetahi ki a korua, He aha i wetekina ai e korua? kia penei ta korua ki atu, E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mona.

32 Na, haere atu ana te hunga i tonoa, rokohanga atu, rite tonu ki tana i korero ai ki a raua.

33 Na, i a raua e wewete ana i te kuao, ka mea ona rangatira ki a raua, He aha korua ka wewete ai i te kuao na?

34 Na ko ta raua meatanga atu, E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mona.

35 Na ka arahina ia ki a Ihu: a panga iho e raua o raua kakahu ki runga ki te kuao, whakanohoia ana a Ihu ki runga.

36 A, i a ia e haere ana, ka wharikitia o ratou kakahu ki te huarahi.

37 A, i a ia e whakatata ana ki te heketanga o Maunga Oriwa, ka koa te huihui katoa o nga akonga, ka anga ka whakamoemiti ki te Atua, he nui hoki te reo, mo nga merekara katoa i kite ai ratou;

38 Ka mea, Ka whakapaingia te Kingi e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki: he rongo mau ki runga ki te rangi, he kororia ki runga rawa.

39 Na ka mea etahi o nga Parihi i roto i te mano ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, riria au akonga.

40 Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea, Ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, me i noho puku enei, kua karanga ake nga kamaka.

28 And when he had said this, he went on in front of them, going up to Jerusalem.

29 And it came about that when he got near Beth-phage and Bethany by the mountain which is named the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of the disciples,

30 Saying, Go into the little town in front of you, and on going in you will see a young ass fixed with a cord, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose and take him.

31 And if anyone says to you, Why are you taking him? say, The Lord has need of him.

32 And those whom he sent went away, and it was as he said.

33 And when they were getting the young ass, the owners of it said to them, Why are you taking the young ass?

34 And they said, The Lord has need of him.

35 And they took him to Jesus, and they put their clothing on the ass, and Jesus got on to him.

36 And while he went on his way they put their clothing down on the road in front of him.

37 And when he came near the foot of the Mountain of Olives, all the disciples with loud voices gave praise to God with joy, because of all the great works which they had seen;

38 Saying, A blessing on the King who comes in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven and glory in the highest.

39 And some of the Pharisees among the people said to him, Master, make your disciples be quiet.

40 And he said in answer, I say to you, if these men keep quiet, the very stones will be crying out.
