Lucas 9

Te Hunga e Hia-Whai i a Īhu

57 Ā, i a rātou e haere ana i te ara, ka mea tētahi tangata ki a ia, "Ka aru ahau i a koe ki ngā wāhi katoa e haere ai koe."

58 Nā, ko te mea­tanga a Īhu ki a ia, "He rua o ngā pokiha, he kō­hanga o ngā manu o te rangi; tēnā ko te Tama a te tangata hore ōna wāhi e takoto ai tōna māte­nga."

59 Ka mea ia ki tētahi atu, "Aru­mia mai ahau."

Ā, ka mea ia, "E te Ariki, tukua ahau kia mātua haere ki te tanu i tōku pāpā."

60 Nā, ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, "Waiho mā ngā tū­pā­paku e tanu ō rātou nā tū­pā­paku. Ko koe ia me haere ki te kauwhau i te ranga­tira­tanga o te Atua."

61 Ka mea hoki tētahi atu, "E te Ariki, ka aru ahau i a koe; otirā, tukua ahau kia mātua poro­poro­aki ki te hunga i tōku whare."

62 Otirā, ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, "Ki te pā te ringa o tētahi ki te parau, ā, ka ti­tiro ki muri, e kore ia e tau mō te ranga­tira­tanga o te Atua."
