Lucas 19

1 He entered and was passing through Jericho. 2 There was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. 3 He was trying to see who Jesus was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short. 4 He ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was going to pass that way. 5 When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him, "Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house." 6 He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully. 7 When they saw it, they all murmured, saying, "He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner."

8 Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor. If I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much."

9 Jesus said to him, "Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost."

11 As they heard these things, he went on and told a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and they supposed that God’s Kingdom would be revealed immediately. 12 He said therefore, "A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. 13 He called ten servants of his and gave them ten mina coins, *19:13 10 minas was more than 3 years’ wages for an agricultural laborer. and told them, ‘Conduct business until I come.’ 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’

15 "When he had come back again, having received the kingdom, he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by conducting business. 16 The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.’

17 "He said to him, ‘Well done, you good servant! Because you were found faithful with very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.’

18 "The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’

19 "So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’

20 Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief, 21 for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you didn’t lay down, and reap that which you didn’t sow.’

22 "He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn’t lay down and reaping that which I didn’t sow. 23 Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’ 24 He said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina away from him and give it to him who has the ten minas.’

25 "They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’ 26 ‘For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him. 27 But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’" 28 Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

29 When he came near to Bethsphage*19:29 TR, NU read "Bethpage" instead of "Bethsphage" and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples, 30 saying, "Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, which no man has ever sat upon. Untie it and bring it. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’"

32 Those who were sent went away and found things just as he had told them. 33 As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, "Why are you untying the colt?" 34 They said, "The Lord needs it." 35 Then they brought it to Jesus. They threw their cloaks on the colt and sat Jesus on them. 36 As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.

37 As he was now getting near, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen, 38 saying, "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!✝19:38 Psalms 118:26 Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!"

39 Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples!"

40 He answered them, "I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out."

41 When he came near, he saw the city and wept over it, 42 saying, "If you, even you, had known today the things which belong to your peace! But now, they are hidden from your eyes. 43 For the days will come on you when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, surround you, hem you in on every side, 44 and will dash you and your children within you to the ground. They will not leave in you one stone on another, because you didn’t know the time of your visitation."

45 He entered into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it, 46 saying to them, "It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ ✝19:46 Isaiah 56:7 but you have made it a ‘den of robbers’!" ✝19:46 Jeremiah 7:11

47 He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests, the scribes, and the leading men among the people sought to destroy him. 48 They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.

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."

Te Kupu Whakarite o ngā Moni Kōura

11 Ā, i a rātou e whakarongo ana ki ēnei mea ka kōrerotia anō e ia tētahi kupu whakarite, nō te mea e tata ana ia ki Hiruhārama, e mea ana hoki rātou, ko taua wā pū anō whakakitea ai te rangatiratanga o te Atua. 12 Nā reira ia ka mea, "I haere tētahi rangatira nui ki tētahi whenua mamao, kia riro mai i a ia tētahi rangatiratanga, ka hoki mai ai. 13 Kotahi tekau āna pononga i karangatia e ia, kotahi tekau ngā pāuna i hoatu e ia ki a rātou, ka mea ki a rātou, ‘Mahia ēnei, kia hoki mai rā anō ahau.’

14 "Otirā, i kino tōna iwi ki a ia, ka tono karere i muri i a ia, ka mea, ‘E kore mātou e pai ki tēnei hei kīngi mō mātou.’

15 "Ā, i tōna hokinga mai, kua riro mai hoki i a ia te rangatiratanga, ka mea kia karangatia ki a ia aua pononga, i hoatu nei e ia te moni ki a rātou, kia kite ai ia i tā tētahi, i tā tētahi i mahi ai. 16 Ka tae mai tō mua, ka mea, ‘E te ariki, ka ngahuru ngā pāuna kua mahia ki tāu pāuna.’ 17 Ka mea ia ki a ia, ‘Ka pai, e te pononga pai; pono tonu tāu mahi i te mea nohinohi rawa, nā, hei rangatira koe mō ngā pā kotahi tekau.’

18 "Ā, ko te haerenga mai o te tuarua, ka mea, ‘E te ariki, e rima ngā pāuna kua mahia ki tāu pāuna.’ 19 Ka mea ia ki tēnei, ‘Hei rangatira anō koe mō ngā pā e rima.’

20 "Nā, ko te haerenga mai o tētahi, ka mea, ‘E te ariki, nā, tāu pāuna, i te rongoā hoki i ahau i roto i te tauera. 21 I mataku hoki ahau i a koe, nō te mea he tangata uaua koe; e tango ana koe i te mea kīhai i whakatakotoria iho e koe, e kokoti ana i te mea kīhai i ruia e koe.’

22 "Nā, ko tāna meatanga ki a ia, ‘Kei tā tōu māngai he whakahēanga māku i a koe, e te pononga kino. I mōhio koe he tangata uaua ahau, e tango ana i te mea kīhai i whakatakotoria e ahau, e kokoti ana i te mea kīhai i ruia e ahau. 23 He aha koe tē hoatu ai i tāku moni ki te pēke, pēnei kua riro mai taua mea i ahau, me ōna hua anō, i tōku taenga mai?’

24 "Nā, ka mea ia ki te hunga e tū tata ana, ‘Tangohia te pāuna i a ia, hoatu hoki ki tērā i ngā pāuna kotahi tekau.’

25 "Ka mea rātou ki a ia, ‘E te ariki kotahi nei tekau āna pāuna.’

26 "Ko tāku kupu hoki tēnei ki a koutou, ‘Ki te whai mea tētahi, ka hoatu anō ki a ia; ki te kāhore he mea a tētahi, ko āna mea ake ka tangohia i a ia. 27 Tēnā ko aua hoariri ōku kīhai nei i pai ki ahau hei kīngi mō rātou, ārahina mai ki konei, ka patu ki tōku aroaro!’ "

Te Tomonga Manahau ki Hiruhārama

28 Ā, nō ka mutu ēnei kōrero, ka tūria atu e ia ki mua, ka haere ki Hiruhārama. 29 Ā, nō ka tata ia ki Petapaki, ki Petani, ki te maunga e kīia nei ko tō ngā Ōriwa, nā, tokorua āna ākonga i tonoa e ia. 30 I mea ia, "Haere kōrua ki te kāinga e anga mai ana ki a kōrua; ā, nō ka tomo atu, ka kite kōrua i tētahi kūao kāihe e here ana, he mea kāhore anō i nohoia noatia e te tangata. Wetekina, ārahina mai. 31 Ki te mea hoki tētahi, ki a kōrua, ‘He aha i wetekina ai e kōrua?’ Kia pēnei tā kōrua kī atu, ‘E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mōna.’ "

32 Nā, haere atu ana te hunga i tonoa, rokohanga atu, rite tonu ki tāna i kōrero ai ki a rāua. 33 Nā, i a rāua e wewete ana i te kūao, ka mea ōna rangatira ki a rāua "He aha kōrua ka wewete ai i te kūao nā?"

34 Nā, ko tā rāua meatanga atu, "E mea ana te Ariki ki a ia mōna." 35 Nā, ka ārahina ia ki a Īhu; ā, pangā iho e rāua ō rāua kākahu ki runga ki te kūao, whakanohoia ana a Īhu ki runga. 36 Ā, i a ia e haere ana, ka whārikitia ō rātou kākahu ki te huarahi.

37 Ā, i a ia e whakatata ana ki te heketanga o Maunga Ōriwa, ka koa te huihui katoa o ngā ākonga, ka anga, ka whakamoemiti ki te Atua, he nui hoki te reo, mō ngā merekara katoa i kite ai rātou; 38 ka mea,

"Ka whakapaingia te Kīngi e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki!

He rongo mau ki runga ki te rangi, he korōria ki runga rawa!"

39 Nā, ka mea ētahi o ngā Parihi i roto i te mano ki a ia, "E te Kaiwhakaako, rīria āu ākonga!"

40 Nā, ka whakahoki ia, ka mea, "Ko tāku kupu tēnei ki a koutou, me i noho puku ēnei, kua karanga ake ngā kāmaka."

Ka Tangi a Īhu mō Hiruhārama

41 Ā, nō ka tata ia, ka kite i te pā, ka tangihia e ia. 42 Ka mea ia, "Me i mōhio koe, ā, koe anō, ahakoa i tēnei rā nei anō ōu, ki ngā mea e mau ai tōu rongo! Ko tēnei kua huna atu i ōu kanohi. 43 Tērā hoki e tae mai ngā rā ki a koe, e hangā ai e ōu hoariri he parepare mōu ā taka noa, ā, ka karapotia koe, ka kōpania hoki i ngā taha katoa. 44 Ā, ka whakahoroa koe ki raro, me āu tamariki i roto i a koe. E kore anō e waiho tētahi kāmaka i runga i tētahi kāmaka i roto i a koe, nō te mea kīhai koe i mātau ki te wā i tirohia ai koe!"

Ka Haere a Īhu ki te Temepara

45 Ā, ka tomo ia ki te temepara, ka anga, ka pei ki waho i te hunga i reira e hoko ana. 46 Ka mea ki a rātou, "Kua oti te tuhituhi, ‘Ko tōku whare hei whare īnoi,’ ā, kua meinga nei e koutou hei ana mō ngā kaipāhua!"

47 Ā, whakaako ana ia i te temepara i ia rā, i ia rā. Otiia, ka rapu ngā tohunga nui me ngā karaipi me ngā rangatira o te iwi kia whakangaromia ia. 48 Heoi, kīhai i kitea tā rātou e mea ai, nō te mea e ū ana ngā tāngata katoa ki a ia, e whakarongo ana.
