João 11

Te Matenga o Raharuhi

1 Nā, kei te mate tētahi tangata a Raharuhi o Petani, te kāinga o Meri rāua ko tōna tuakana, ko Māta. 2 Ko taua Meri tēnei nāna nei i whakawahi te Ariki ki te hinu, i muru hoki i ōna waewae ki ōna makawe; ā, he tungāne nōna a Raharuhi i mate nei. 3 Nā, ka tono tāngata ngā tuāhine ki a ia, ka mea, "E te Ariki, tēnei kei te mate tāu tangata e aroha nei."

4 I te rongonga ia o Īhu, ka mea ia, "Ehara tēnei i te mate e mate rawa ai ia, engari, hei mea mō te korōria o te Atua; mā tēnei hoki ka whai korōria ai te Tama a te Atua." 5 Nā, i aroha a Īhu ki a Māta rāua ko tōna teina, ki a Raharuhi hoki. 6 Ā, nō ka rongo ia ki tōna matenga, e rua ōna rā i noho ai ki taua wāhi rā anō.

7 Muri iho i tēnei, ka mea ia ki āna ākonga, "Tātou ka haere anō ki Hūria."

8 Ka mea ngā ākonga ki a ia, "E te Kaiwhakaako, i whai ngā Hūrai i mua tata ake nei kia ākina koe ki te kōhatu; ā, e haere atu ana koe ki reira?"

9 Ka whakahokia e Īhu, "He teka ianei tekau mā rua ngā hāora o te rā? I te haere tētahi i te awatea, e kore ia e tūtuki, nō te mea e kite ana ia i te mārama o tēnei ao. 10 Tēnā, ka haere tētahi i te pō, ka tūtuki ia, nō te mea kāhore he mārama roto i a ia."

11 Ka kōrerotia ēnei mea e ia, nā, muri iho ka mea ia ki a rātou, "Kei te moe tō tātou hoa a Raharuhi, otiia, ka haere ahau ki te whakaara i a ia i te moe."

12 Nā, ko te meatanga a āna ākonga, "E te Ariki, ki te mea kei te moe ia, tērā ia e ora." 13 Kāhore, ko tōna matenga tā Īhu i kōrero ai; ko rātou ia i mahara, i kōrero ia mō te takotoranga ina moe.

14 Kātahi, ka mea nui a Īhu ki a rātou, "Kua mate a Raharuhi. 15 Ā, e hari ana ahau, he whakaaro hoki ki a koutou, nōku kāhore i reira, kia whakapono ai koutou. Ahakoa rā kia haere tātou ki a ia."

16 Nā, ka mea a Tamati (e huaina nei ko Ririmu) ki ōna hoa ākonga, "Kia haere anō tātou, kia mate tahi me ia."

Ko Īhu te Aranga me te Oranga

17 Heoi, i te taenga atu o Īhu, rokohanga atu kua whā kē ōna rā i roto i te urupā. 18 Nā, e tata ana Petani ki Hiruhārama, kotahi pea tekau mā rima pāronga, 19 he tokomaha anō ngā Hūrai i tae ki a Māta rāua ko Meri, ki te whakamārie i a rāua mō tō rāua tungāne. 20 Ā, nō te rongonga o Māta, tēnā a Īhu te haere mai nā, ka whakatau i a ia; ko Meri ia i noho i roto i te whare.

21 Nā, ka mea a Māta ki a Īhu, "E te Ariki, me i konei koe, kīhai i mate tōku tungāne. 22 Heoi, e mātau nei anō ahau, ko tāu e īnoi ai ki te Atua, e hōmai e te Atua ki a koe."

23 Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, "E ara anō tōu tungāne."

24 Ka mea a Māta ki a ia, "E mātau ana ahau e ara anō ia i te aranga ā te rā whakamutunga."

25 Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, "Ko ahau te aranga, te ora. Ko ia e whakapono ana ki ahau, ahakoa kua mate, e ora anō; 26 e kore anō e mate ake ake ngā tāngata katoa e ora ana, e whakapono ana ki ahau. E whakapono ana rānei koe ki tēnei?"

27 Ka mea ia ki a ia, "Āe, e te Ariki, e whakapono ana ahau, ko te Karaiti koe, ko te Tama a te Atua, e haere mai ana ki te ao."

Ka Tangi a Īhu

28 Ā, ka mutu ēnei kōrero āna, ka haere ka karanga puku ki tōna teina, ki a Meri, ka mea, "Kua tae mai te Kaiwhakaako, e karanga ana hoki ki a koe." 29 Ā, nō ka rongo ia, hohoro tonu te whakatika, ā, haere ana ki a ia. 30 (Nā, kāhore a Īhu i tomo noa ki te kāinga; heoi, kei taua wāhi anō ia i tūtaki ai a Māta ki a ia.) 31 I te kitenga o ngā Hūrai e noho ana ki a ia i roto i te whare, e whakamārie ana i a ia, ka hohoro a Meri te whakatika, te puta ki waho. Ka aru rātou i a ia, ka mea, "E haere ana ia ki te urupā, ki reira tangi ai."

32 Ā, nō ka tae a Meri ki te wāhi kei reira nei a Īhu, ka kite i a ia, ka takoto ki ōna waewae, ka mea ki a ia, "E te Ariki, me i konei koe, kīhai i mate tōku tungāne."

33 Ā, nō ka kite a Īhu i a ia e tangi ana, i ngā Hūrai hoki i haere tahi me ia e tangi ana, ka ngunguru ia, arā tōna wairua, ka kōingo. 34 Nā mea, "I whakatakotoria ia e koutou ki hea?" Ka mea rātou ki a ia, "E te Ariki, haere mai kia kite."

35 Tangi ana a Īhu. 36 Nā, ka mea ngā Hūrai, "Nanā, tōna aroha ki a ia!"

37 Nā, ka mea ētahi o rātou, "Kāhore rānei i taea e tēnei tangata, nāna nei i whakatitiro ngā kanohi o te matapō, te mea i tēnei tangata hoki kia kaua e mate?"

Te Aranga a Raharuhi

38 Nā, ka ngunguru anō a Īhu i roto i a ia, ka haere ki te urupā. He ana ia, kua oti te pā ki te kōhatu. 39 Ka mea a Īhu, "Tangohia atu e koutou te kōhatu."

Ka mea ki a ia a Māta tuahine o te tūpāpaku, "E te Ariki, kua piro noa ake ia; ko tōna pō whā hoki tēnei."

40 Anō rā, ko Īhu ki a ia, "Kīhai koia ahau i mea ki a koe, ki te whakapono koe, e kite koe i te korōria o te Atua?"

41 Nā, ka tangohia e rātou te kōhatu i te wāhi i takoto ai te tūpāpaku. Nā, ka ara ake ngā kanohi o Īhu, ka mea ia, "E Pā, ko tāku whakawhetai tēnei ki a koe, mōu i whakarongo ki ahau. 42 I mahara anō ahau e rongo tonu ana koe ki ahau; heoi, he whakaaro ki te hunga e tū mai nei i kōrero ai ahau, kia whakapono ai rātou, nāu ahau i tono mai."

43 Ā, nō ka pēnei tāna kī, he nui tōna reo ki te karanga, "E Raharuhi, puta mai!" 44 Nā, ko te putanga mai o te tūpāpaku, he mea here ngā ringa me ngā waewae ki ngā tākai; he mea takai tōna mata ki te tauera. Ka mea a Īhu ki a rātou, "Wetekia, tukua kia haere."

Te Whakangārahu ki a Īhu

45 Nā, he tokomaha ngā Hūrai haere nei ki a Meri, ā, i tō rātou kitenga i ngā mea i mea ai a Īhu, ka whakapono ki a ia. 46 Ko ētahi o rātou i haere ki ngā Parihi, i kōrero ki a rātou i ngā mea i mahia e Īhu. 47 Nā, ka whakaminea he rūnanga e ngā tohunga nui rātou ko ngā Parihi, ka mea, "Kei te aha tātou nei? He maha hoki ngā merekara e meatia nei e tēnei tangata. 48 Ki te pēnei tā tātou tuku i a ia, ka whakapono katoa ki a ia; ā, ka haere mai ngā Rōma, ka tango i tō tātou kāinga, i tō tātou iwi."

49 Nā, ko tētahi o rātou ko Kaiapa, ko te tohunga nui o taua tau, ka mea ki a rātou, "Kāhore koutou e mātau ki tētahi mea. 50 Tē whakaaro, he pai mō tātou ki te mate te tangata kotahi mō te iwi, ā, kāhore e ngaro te iwi katoa."

51 Nā, ehara tēnei kōrero i te mea nāna ake, engari, ko te tohunga nui ia mō tērā tau, heoi, ka poropiti kia mate a Īhu mō taua iwi. 52 Hāunga anō taua iwi anake, engari, kia whakaminea kia kotahi ngā tamariki a te Atua kua marara noa atu. 53 Nō taua rā ake anō, ka rūnanga rātou kia whakamatea ia.

54 Koia i mutu ai te haere matanui o Īhu i roto i ngā Hūrai. Heoi, haere atu ana ia i reira ki te wāhi e tata ana ki te koraha, ki tētahi pā, ko Ēparaima te ingoa, ā, noho ana i reira rātou ko āna ākonga.

55 Nā, kua tata te Kapenga a ngā Hūrai; he tokomaha hoki i haere atu i taua whenua i mua o te Kapenga ki Hiruhārama ki te pure i a rātou. 56 Nā, ka rapu rātou i a Īhu ka kōrerorero ki a rātou anō, i a rātou e tū ana i te temepara, "E pēhea ana ō koutou whakaaro? E kore rānei ia e haere mai ki te hākari?" 57 Nā, kua takoto te tikanga a ngā tohunga nui rātou ko ngā Parihi, ki te mātau tētahi tangata ki te wāhi e noho ai ia, me whakaatu, kia hopukia ai ia e rātou.

1 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 And it was that Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. 3 The sisters therefore sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. 4 But when Jesus heard it, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified thereby. 5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. 6 When therefore he heard that he was sick, he abode at that time two days in the place where he was. 7 Then after this he saith to the disciples, Let us go into Judæa again. 8 The disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews were but now seeking to stone thee; and goest thou thither again? 9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. 10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him. 11 These things spake he: and after this he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus is fallen asleep; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. 12 The disciples therefore said unto him, Lord, if he is fallen asleep, he will recover. 13 Now Jesus had spoken of his death: but they thought that he spake of taking rest in sleep. 14 Then Jesus therefore said unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. 15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him. 16 Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said unto his fellow-disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

17 So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already. 18 Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off; 19 and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother. 20 Martha therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary still sat in the house. 21 Martha therefore said unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. 22 And even now I know that, whatsoever thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee. 23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. 24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. 25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on me, though he die, yet shall he live; 26 and whosoever liveth and believeth on me shall never die. Believest thou this? 27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I have believed that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, even he that cometh into the world. 28 And when she had said this, she went away, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Teacher is here, and calleth thee. 29 And she, when she heard it, arose quickly, and went unto him. 30 (Now Jesus was not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met him.) 31 The Jews then who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, supposing that she was going unto the tomb to weep there. 32 Mary therefore, when she came where Jesus was, and saw him, fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. 33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping who came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, 34 and said, Where have ye laid him? They say unto him, Lord, come and see. 35 Jesus wept. 36 The Jews therefore said, Behold how he loved him! 37 But some of them said, Could not this man, who opened the eyes of him that was blind, have caused that this man also should not die? 38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it. 39 Jesus saith, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time the body decayeth; for he hath been dead four days. 40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou believedst, thou shouldest see the glory of God? 41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou heardest me. 42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the multitude that standeth around I said it, that they may believe that thou didst send me. 43 And when he had thus spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. 44 He that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave-clothes; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

45 Many therefore of the Jews, who came to Mary and beheld that which he did, believed on him. 46 But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus had done.

47 The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many signs. 48 If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation. 49 But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, 50 nor do ye take account that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. 51 Now this he said not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation; 52 and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God that are scattered abroad. 53 So from that day forth they took counsel that they might put him to death.

54 Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews, but departed thence into the country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim; and there he tarried with the disciples. 55 Now the passover of the Jews was at hand: and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the passover, to purify themselves. 56 They sought therefore for Jesus, and spake one with another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye? That he will not come to the feast? 57 Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commandment, that, if any man knew where he was, he should show it, that they might take him.
