1 At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat. 2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, "Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath."

3 But he said to them, "Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him: 4 how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests? 5 Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless? 6 But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here. 7 But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn’t have condemned the guiltless. 8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

9 He departed from there and went into their synagogue. 10 And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?" so that they might accuse him.

11 He said to them, "What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it and lift it out? 12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day." 13 Then he told the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other. 14 But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.

15 Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all, 16 and commanded them that they should not make him known, 17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

18 "Behold, my servant whom I have chosen,

my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased.

I will put my Spirit on him.

He will proclaim justice to the nations.

19 He will not strive, nor shout,

neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.

20 He won’t break a bruised reed.

He won’t quench a smoking flax,

until he leads justice to victory.

21 In his name, the nations will hope."

22 Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him; and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw. 23 All the multitudes were amazed, and said, "Can this be the son of David?" 24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, "This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons."

25 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges. 28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you. 29 Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.

30 "He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn’t gather with me, scatters. 31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. 32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in that which is to come.

33 "Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit. 34 You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. 35 The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things. 36 I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."

38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, "Teacher, we want to see a sign from you."

39 But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet. 40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here. 42 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.

43 "When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and doesn’t find it. 44 Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came;’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. 45 Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation."

46 While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him. 47 One said to him, "Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you."

48 But he answered him who spoke to him, "Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?" 49 He stretched out his hand toward his disciples, and said, "Behold, my mother and my brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother."

1 I taua wa i haere a Ihu i te hapati ra waenga witi; a e hiakai ana ana akonga, na ka anga ratou ka kato i nga witi, ka kai.

2 A, no te kitenga o nga Parihi, ka mea ki a ia, Na, au akonga e mea na i te mea e kore e tika kia meinga i te hapati.

3 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kahore koutou i kite i ta Rawiri i mea ai, i a ia e hiakai ana, ratou ko ona hoa:

4 I tona tomokanga ki te whare o te Atua, i tana kainga i nga taro aroaro, i nga mea kihai nei i tika kia kainga e ia, e ona hoa ranei, engari ma nga tohunga anake?

5 Kahore ano koutou i kite i roto i te ture, e whakanoatia ana te hapati e nga tohunga i roto i te temepara i nga hapati, a kahore he he?

6 Ko taku kupu ia tenei ki a koutou, Kei konei tetahi, he rahi ke i te temepara.

7 Otiia me i matau koutou ki tenei, Ko taku e pai ai ko te tohu tangata, haunga te patunga tapu, kahore koutou i whakahe i te hunga harakore.

8 Ko te Tama nei hoki a te tangata te Ariki o te hapati.

9 Na ka haere atu ia i reira, ka tomo ki to ratou whare karakia:

10 Na he tangata tera kua memenge te ringa. A ka ui ratou ki a ia, He tika ranei te whakaora i te hapati? he mea hoki kia whakapangia ai e ratou he he ki a ia.

11 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ko tehea tangata o koutou, ki te mea kotahi ana hipi, a ka taka ki roto ki te poka i te hapati, e kore ranei ia e mau ki taua hipi, e hapai ake?

12 Na tera noa atu to te tangata pai i to te hipi. Ina, he tika ano te mahi pai i nga hapati.

13 Me i reira ka mea ia ki taua tangata, Totoro mai tou ringa. A, no te toronga, kua ora ano, kua pera me tetahi.

14 Na ka haere nga Parihi ki waho, ka runanga mona me pehea e ngaro ai ia i a ratou.

15 Otira i matau a Ihu, a haere atu ana i reira: a he rahi te hui i aru i a ia, a whakaorangia ana ratou katoa e ia;

16 A i whakatupato ano ia i a ratou kei whakakitea ia.

17 Na ka rite ta Ihaia poropiti i korero ai, i mea ai,

18 Na, taku pononga, taku i whiriwhiri ai: taku i aroha ai, ta toku Wairua i ahuareka ai: ka waiho e ahau toku Wairua ki runga ki a ia, a mana e whakapuaki te whakawa ki nga tauiwi.

19 E kore ia e totohe, e kore ia e hamama; e kore ano e rangona tona reo i nga ara;

20 E kore e whatiia porokeretia e ia te kakaho i mangungu, e kore e tineia te muka e whakapaoa ana; kia puta ra ano i a ia te whakawa ki te wikitoria.

21 Ka tumanako hoki nga tauiwi ki tona ingoa.

22 Me i reira ka kawea mai ki a ia he tangata e nohoia ana e te rewera, he matapo, he wahangu; a whakaorangia ana e ia, no ka korero, ka kite taua matapo, taua wahangu.

23 A ka ohomauri te mano katoa, ka mea, Ehara ianei tenei i te Tama a Rawiri?

24 A, no te rongonga o nga Parihi, ka mea, Ehara i a ia nana i pei nga rewera nei, engari na Perehepura, na te rangatira o nga rewera.

25 A i matau a Ihu ki o ratou whakaaro, ka mea ki a ratou, Ki te tahuri iho tetahi rangatiratanga ki a ia ano, ka kore; ki te tahuri iho hoki ki a ia ano tetahi pa, tetahi whare ranei, e kore e tu:

26 Na, ki te pei a Hatana i a Hatana ano, e tahuri iho ana ki a ia ano; me pehea e tu ai tona rangatiratanga?

27 A, ki te mea na Perehepura taku peinga rewera, na wai te peinga a a koutou tamariki? na ko ratou hei kaiwhakawa mo koutou.

28 Tena, ki te mea na te Wairua o te Atua taku peinga rewera, ina, kua tae noa mai te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki a koutou.

29 Me pehea oti ka tomo ai te tangata ki te whare o te tangata kaha, ka pahua ai i ona taonga, ki te kore ia e matua here i taua tangata kaha? ko reira pahua ai i tona whare.

30 Ko te tangata ehara i te hoa noku, he hoariri ia ki ahau; ko te tangata kahore e kohikohi tahi maua, e titaritari ana.

31 Koia ahau ka mea nei ki a koutou, Ko nga hara katoa me nga kohukohu, a te tangata e murua: tena ko te kohukohu ki te Wairau Tapu e kore e murua.

32 Ki te korero whakahe hoki tetahi mo te Tama a te tangata, e murua tana: tena ki te korero whakahe tetahi mo te Wairua Tapu, e kore e murua tana i tenei ao, e kore ano i tera atu.

33 Meinga ranei te rakau kia pai, a pai iho ona hua; meinga ranei te rakau kia kino, a kino iho ona hua; ma nga hua hoki ka mohiotia ai te rakau.

34 E te uri nakahi, me pehea ka korero pai ai koutou, te hunga kino? he purenatanga hoki no te ngakau nga kupu a te mangai.

35 Ko te tangata pai he pai ana e whakaputa ai i roto i nga taonga pai o te ngakau: ko te tangata kino hoki he kino ana e whakaputa ai i roto i nga taonga kino.

36 Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Me korero e nga tangata, i te ra whakawa, te tikanga o nga kupu pokanoa katoa e puaki i a ratou.

37 Ma au kupu hoki koe ka whakatikaia ai, ma au kupu ano ka tau ai te he ki a koe.

38 Me i reira ka ki etahi o nga karaipi, o nga Parihi, ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, e mea ana matou kia kite i tetahi tohu i a koe.

39 Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, E rapu ana te whakatupuranga kino, puremu, i tetahi tohu; a e kore tetahi tohu e hoatu, ko te tohu anake o Hona poropiti:

40 E toru hoki nga ra o Hona, e toru nga po i roto i te kopu o te tohora; waihoki ka toru nga ra, ka toru nga po o te Tama a te tangata ki te manawa o te whenua.

41 E ara nga tangata o Ninewe me tenei whakatupuranga i te whakawakanga, e whakatau i te he ki a ratou: i ripeneta hoki ratou i te kauwhau a Hona; a tenei tetahi he nui ki i a Hona.

42 E ara te kuini o te tonga me tenei whakatupuranga i te whakawakanga, e whakatau i te he ki a ratou: i haere mai hoki ia i nga pito o te whenua ki te whakarongo ki nga whakaaro nui o Horomona; a tenei tetahi he nui ke i a Horomona.

43 Ka puta mai te wairua poke i roto i te tangata, ka haereere ra nga wahi maroke rapu okiokinga ai, a te kitea.

44 Ka mea ia, Ka hoki ahau ki toku whare i puta mai ia ahau; a, no te taenga atu, rokohanga atu e takoto kau ana, oti rawa te tahi, te whakapai.

45 Na ka haere ia, ka tango i etahi atu wairua tokowhitu hei hoa mona, he kino noa atu i a ia, ka tomo ratou, ka noho ki reira; a kino atu i te timatanga te whakamutunga ki taua tangata. Tera ano e pera tenei whakatupuranga kino.

46 I a ia ano e korero ana ki te mano, na, ko tona whaea ratou ko ona teina e tu ana i waho, e whai ana kia korero ki a ia.

47 A ka mea tetahi ki a ia, Na, tou whaea me ou teina te tu mai nei i waho, e whai ana kia korero ki a koe.

48 Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki te tangata i korero ki a ia, Ko wai toku whaea? ko wai hoki oku teina?

49 Na ka totoro tona ringa ki ana akonga, ka mea, Na, toku whaea, oku teina!

50 Ki te meatia hoki e tetahi ta toku Matua i te rangi e pai ai, hei teina ia ki ahau, hei tuahine, hei whaea.
