Mateus 17

Me Hoatu te Takoha Temepara

24 Ā, nō tō rātou taenga ki Kaperenauma, ka haere mai ki a Pita ngā kaikohikohi i te hāwhe hekere, ka mea, "E kore ianei tōu Kaiwhakaako e hōmai i te hāwhe hekere?"

25 Ka mea ia, "E hoatu anō."

Ā, nō ka tapoko ia ki te whare, ko Īhu kua kōrero ki a ia, kua mea, "E pēhea ana tōu whakaaro, e Haimona? E tangohia ana e ngā kīngi o te ao ngā takoha taonga me te takoha tangata i a wai? I ā rātou ake tama, i a ngā tāngata kē rānei?"

26 Ka mea a Pita ki a ia, "I a ngā tāngata kē."

Nā, ko te kīanga a Īhu ki a ia, "Ha, pēnā ka haere noa ngā tamariki. 27 Ahakoa rā, kei whai take hē mai rātou ki a tātou, haere ki te moana, piua tētahi matau, ā, ka eke te ika mātāmua, tangohia; nā, ka whakatuwhera i tōna māngai, ka kite ai koe i tētahi moni, tangohia tēnā, ka hoatu ki a rātou, hei mea mōku, mōu."
