Lucas 19

Ko Īhu me Hakiaha

1 Ā, ka tomo ia, ā, tika ana rā waenga­nui o Heriko. 2 Nā, ko tētahi tangata, ko Hakiaha te ingoa i huaina ai, he ranga­tira pupiri­kana, he tangata taonga anō. 3 I whai ia kia kite i a Īhu he pēhea rānei ia; heoi, kīhai i taea e ia i te mano, he tangata poto hoki. 4 Nā, ka oma ia ki mua, ā, kake ana ki tētahi hika­mora, kia kite i a ia, meāke hoki ia tika rā reira. 5 Ā, nō ka tae a Īhu ki taua wāhi, ka ti­tiro ake, ka mea ki a ia, "E Hakiaha, kia hohoro te heke iho; me noho hoki ahau ki tōu whare āia­nei."

6 Ā, hohoro tonu tōna heke iho, ā, ka koa ki a ia hei manu­hiri māna. 7 Ā, i tō rātou kite­nga, ka amu­amu katoa, ka mea, "Kua riro ia ki te tangata hara noho ai."

8 Nā, ka tū a Hakiaha, ka mea ki te Ariki, "E te Ariki, nā, e hoatu ana e ahau te hāwhe o āku taonga ki te hunga rawa­kore, ā, ki te mea kua riro hē mai i ahau te mea a tētahi, ka taki­whā­tia e ahau tāku utu."

9 Nā, ko te mea­tanga a Īhu ki a ia, "Nō nāia­nei te ora i tae mai ai ki tēnei whare, he tama nei hoki ia nā Āperahama. 10 I haere mai hoki te Tama a te tangata ki te rapu, ki te whaka­ora i te mea i ngaro."
