Marcos 10

1 He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.

2 Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"

3 He answered, "What did Moses command you?"

4 They said, "Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her."

5 But Jesus said to them, "For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment. 6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.✝10:6 Genesis 1:27 7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife, 8 and the two will become one flesh,✝10:8 Genesis 2:24 so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."

10 In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter. 11 He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. 12 If a woman herself divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery."

13 They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them. 14 But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don’t forbid them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these. 15 Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it." 16 He took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.

17 As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?"

18 Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God. 19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’"✝10:19 Exodus 20:12-16; Deuteronomy 5:16-20

20 He said to him, "Teacher, I have observed all these things from my youth."

21 Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross."

22 But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.

23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!"

24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter into God’s Kingdom! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom."

26 They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, "Then who can be saved?"

27 Jesus, looking at them, said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God."

28 Peter began to tell him, "Behold, we have left all and have followed you."

29 Jesus said, "Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News, 30 but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time: houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age to come eternal life. 31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first."

32 They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him. 33 "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles. 34 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again."

35 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, saying, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask."

36 He said to them, "What do you want me to do for you?"

37 They said to him, "Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left hand, in your glory."

38 But Jesus said to them, "You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"

39 They said to him, "We are able."

Jesus said to them, "You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; 40 but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared."

41 When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant toward James and John.

42 Jesus summoned them and said to them, "You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43 But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you shall be your servant. 44 Whoever of you wants to become first among you shall be bondservant of all. 45 For the Son of Man also came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

46 They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!" 48 Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out much more, "You son of David, have mercy on me!"

49 Jesus stood still and said, "Call him."

They called the blind man, saying to him, "Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you!"

50 He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.

51 Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?"

The blind man said to him, "Rabboni,*10:51 Rabboni is a transliteration of the Hebrew word for "great teacher." that I may see again."

52 Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your faith has made you well." Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the way.

Ka Whakaako a Īhu mō te Whakarerenga

1 Nā, ka whakatika ia i reira, haere ana ki ngā wāhi o Hūria ki tērā taha o Horano. Nā, ka huihui mai anō ngā mano ki a ia; ka whakaako anō ia i a rātou, ko tāna tikanga hoki tērā.

2 Nā, ka haere mai ngā Parihi, ka ui ki a ia, "He mea tika rānei kia whakarere te tangata i tāna wahine?" He whakamātautau hoki mōna.

3 Nā, ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a rātou, "He aha tā Mohi i mea ai ki a koutou?"

4 Ka kī rātou, "I tukua e Mohi kia tuhituhia he pukapuka whakarere, ka whakarere ai."

5 Nā, ka whakahoki a Īhu, ka mea ki a rātou, "Nā te pakeke o ō koutou ngākau i tuhituhia ai e ia tēnei kupu ako ki a koutou. 6 I te orokohanganga ia, ‘I hangā rāua e te Atua he tāne, he wahine.’ 7 ‘Mō konei ka mahue i te tangata tōna pāpā me tōna whaea, ka piri ki tāna wahine; 8 hei kikokiko kotahi hoki rāua tokorua.’ Nā, heoi anō tō rāua tokoruatanga, engari, kotahi anō kikokiko. 9 Nā, ko ā te Atua i hono ai, kaua e wehea e te tangata."

10 Ā, i te whare ka ui anō āna ākonga ki a ia ki taua mea. 11 Ka mea ia ki a rātou, "Ki te whakarere tētahi i tāna wahine, ā, ka mārena i tētahi atu, e pūremu ana ia, e hara ana ki tērā. 12 Ki te whakarere hoki te wahine i tāna tāne, ā, ka mārenatia ki tētahi atu, e pūremu ana ia."

Ka Manaakitia e Īhu ngā Tamariki Nonohi

13 Nā, ka kawea mai ki a ia ētahi tamariki nonohi, kia pā ai ia ki a rātou; otirā, ka rīria e ngā ākonga te hunga nāna i kawe mai. 14 Nō te kitenga ia o Īhu, ka riri, ka mea ki a rātou, "Tukua ngā tamariki nonohi kia haere mai ki ahau, kaua hoki rātou e āraia atu; nō ngā pēnei hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua. 15 He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, ki te kāhore e rite te tango a tētahi i te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki tā te tamaiti nohinohi, e kore ia e tomo ki roto." 16 Nā, okookona ana rātou e ia, whakapākia iho ōna ringa ki a rātou, manaakitia ana rātou.

Te Tangata Whai Taonga

17 Nā, i a ia e haere ana i te huarahi, ka oma mai tētahi, ka tuku iho i ngā turi ki a ia, ka ui, "E te Kaiwhakaako pai, me aha ahau ka whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu?"

18 Nā, ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, "He aha ahau i kīia ai e koe he pai? Kāhore tētahi i pai, kotahi anake, ko te Atua. 19 E mātau ana koe ki ngā ture, ‘Kaua e pūremu. Kaua e patu tangata. Kaua e tāhae. Kaua e whakapae teka. Kaua e kaiā. Whakahōnoretia tōu pāpā me tōu whaea.’ "

20 Nā, ka whakahoki tērā, ka mea ki a ia, "E te Kaiwhakaako, kua rite katoa ēnei mea i ahau nō tōku tamarikitanga ake."

21 Nā, ka titiro a Īhu ki a ia, ka aroha ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, "Kotahi te mea kāhore nei i a koe: haere, hokona āu mea, ka hoatu ki ngā rawakore, ā, e whai taonga koe ki te rangi. Kātahi ka haere mai, ka aru i ahau." 22 Otirā, ka tuku tōna mata i taua kupu, ā, haere pōuri atu ana; he maha hoki ōna taonga.

23 Nā, ka tirotiro a Īhu, ka mea ki āna ākonga, "Anō te whakauaua o te tapoko o te hunga taonga ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua!"

24 Nā, ka mīharo ngā ākonga ki āna kupu. Otirā, ka whakahoki anō a Īhu, ka mea ki a rātou, "E tama mā, anō te whakauaua o te tapoko ki tō te Atua rangatiratanga o te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki ngā taonga! 25 Erangi, te haere o te kāmera rā te kōwhao o te ngira he mea takoto noa, he whakauaua rawa ia te haere o te tangata taonga ki roto ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua."

26 Nā, rahi rawa tō rātou mīharo, ka mea ki a rātou anō, "Ko wai rā e ora?"

27 Nā, ka titiro a Īhu ki a rātou, ka mea, "E kore tēnei e taea e te tangata, ki te Atua ia ka taea; e taea hoki ngā mea katoa e te Atua."

28 Kātahi, ka anga a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, "Nā, kua mahue nei i a mātou ngā mea katoa, kua aru nei i a koe."

29 Nā, ka whakahoki a Īhu, ka mea, "He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, ki te whakarērea e tētahi tangata, he whare, he tēina, he tuāhine, he whaea, he pāpā, he tamariki, he māra, he whakaaro nōna ki ahau, ki te rongopai hoki, 30 inā, tātakirau ngā mea e riro i a ia, i tēnei wā, he whare, he tēina, he tuāhine, he whaea, he tamariki, he māra, me te whakatoi; ā, i te ao meāke puta, he ora tonu. 31 He tokomaha ia ō mua e waiho ki muri; ko ō muri hoki ki mua."

Ngā Kōrerotanga a Īhu mō Tōna Matenga

32 Nā, i te huarahi rātou e haere ana ki Hiruhārama; me te haere anō a Īhu i mua i a rātou: nā, e mīharo ana rātou; e aru mataku ana. Heoi, ka mau anō ia i te tekau mā rua, ka anga, ka kōrero ki a rātou i ngā mea meāke pā ki a ia. 33 "Nanā, e haere ana tēnei tātou ki Hiruhārama; ā, ka tukua te Tama a te tangata ki ngā tohunga nui, ki ngā karaipi; ka kīia e rātou kia mate, ka tuku hoki rātou i a ia ki ngā tauiwi; 34 ka tāwaia ia, ka tuwhaina, ka whiua, ka whakamatea, ā, i te toru o ngā rā, ka ara."

Te Īnoi a Hēmi rāua ko Hoani

35 Nā, ka whakatata mai ki a ia a Hēmi rāua ko Hoani, ngā tama a Heperi, ka mea, "E te Kaiwhakaako, e hiahia ana māua kia meatia e koe tā māua e īnoi ai."

36 Nā, ka mea ia ki a rāua, "He aha tā kōrua e hiahia ai kia meatia e ahau mā kōrua?"

37 Ka mea rāua ki a ia, "Tukua ki a māua kia noho, tētahi ki tōu matau, tētahi ki tōu mauī, i tōu korōria."

38 Nā, ko te meatanga a Īhu ki a rāua, "Kāhore kōrua e mātau ki tā kōrua e īnoi nei; e āhei rānei kōrua te inu i te kapu ka inumia nei e ahau? Kia iriiria ki te iriiringa ka iriiria nei ahau?"

39 Ka mea rāua ki a ia, "E āhei anō."

Ka kī atu a Īhu ki a rāua, "E inu anō kōrua i te kapu ka inumia e ahau; e iriiria kōrua ki te iriiringa e iriiria ai ahau. 40 Tēnā, ko te noho ki tōku matau, ki tōku mauī rānei, ehara i te mea māku e hoatu, engari, ka riro i te hunga i whakaritea nei mō rātou."

41 Ā, nō te rongonga o te tekau, ka anga ka riri ki a Hēmi rāua ko Hoani. 42 Nā, karangatia ana rātou e Īhu ki a ia, ka mea ki a rātou, "E mahara ana koutou, ko te hunga e kīia ana he kāwana nō ngā tauiwi hei whakatupu rangatira ki a rātou; ko ō rātou tāngata rarahi hoki hei akiaki i a rātou. 43 Otirā, e kore e pērā i roto i a koutou; engari, ki te mea tētahi kia whakatupu tangata rahi i roto i a koutou, me whakatupu kaimahi ia mā koutou. 44 Ki te mea hoki tētahi o koutou kia whakatupu tino tangata, me whakatupu pononga ia mā te katoa. 45 Kīhai nei hoki te Tama a te tangata i haere mai kia mahia he mea māna, engari, kia mahi ia, kia tuku hoki i a ia kia mate hei utu mō ngā tāngata tokomaha."

Ka Whakaorangia e Īhu a Paratimiuha he Matapō

46 Nā, ka tae rātou ki Heriko. Ā, i a ia e haere atu ana i roto i Heriko, rātou ko āna ākonga me te mano tini, e noho ana a Paratimiuha, tama a Timiuha, he matapō, i te taha o te ara, ki te tono mea māna. 47 Ā, i tōna rongonga ko Īhu o Nahareta tēnā, ka anga ia, ka karanga, ka mea, "E Īhu, e te Tama a Rāwiri, kia aroha ki ahau."

48 Ā, he tokomaha ki te riri i a ia kia noho puku, heoi, tino rahi ake tāna karanga, "E te Tama a Rāwiri, kia aroha ki ahau."

49 Nā, ka tū a Īhu, ka mea kia karangatia ia.

Ā, karangatia ana e rātou te matapō, ka mea ki a ia, "Kia māia, whakatika; e karanga ana ia ki a koe." 50 Nā, ka whakarērea e ia tōna kākahu, ā, whakatika ana, haere ana ki a Īhu.

51 Nā, ka oho a Īhu, ka mea ki a ia, "He aha tāu e hiahia nā kia meatia e ahau māu?"

Ka kī te matapō ki a ia, "E te Ariki, kia titiro ahau."

52 Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, "Haere; nā tōu whakapono koe i ora ai." Nā, titiro tonu iho ia, aru ana i a Īhu i te ara.
