John 4
Maori Bible
4 A, no ka mohio te Ariki, kua rongo nga Parihi, ko nga akonga a Ihu i mea ai, i iriiri ai, he tokomaha atu i a Hoani,
2 He ahakoa ra ehara i a Ihu nana i iriiri, na ana akonga ia,
3 Ka mahue a Huria i a ia, a hoki ana ano ki Kariri.
4 Na, ko te ara mona i tika na Hamaria.
5 A ka haere ia ki tetahi pa o Hamaria, ko Haika te ingoa, e patata ana ki te wahi i hoatu e Hakopa ki tana tama, ki a Hohepa.
6 Kei reira hoki te puna a Hakopa. Na kua ngenge a Ihu i te haerenga, heoi noho ana ia ki te taha o te puna: a meake ko te ono o nga haora.
7 Ka haere mai tetahi wahine o Hamaria ki te utu wai: ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Homai he wai moku.
8 Kua riro hoki ana akonga ki te pa, ki te hoko kai.
9 Na ko te meatanga a te wahine o Hamaria ki a ia, he aha koe, he Hurai na koe, ka tono mai ai i te wai i ahau, he wahine nei ahau no Hamaria? kahore hoki e tata ana nga Hurai ki nga Hamarai.
10 Ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, Me i matau koe ki ta te Atua e homai ai, ki tenei hoki e mea nei ki a koe, Homai he wai moku; penei kua tono koe ki a ia, a kua hoatu e ia te wai ora ki a koe.
11 Ka mea te wahine ki a ia, E kara, kahore au mea hei utu wai, he hohonu ano te puna: no hea tena wai ora au?
12 He nui oti koe i to matou matua, i a Hakopa, i homai ai te puna ki a matou, inu ana ia i konei, ratou ko ana tamariki, me ana kararehe?
13 Ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, E mate ano i te wai te tangata e inu ana i tenei wai:
14 Tena ko te tangata e inu ana i te wai e hoatu e ahau ki a ia, e kore ia e mate i te wai a ake ake; engari te wai e hoatu e ahau ki a ia, hei puna wai tena i roto i a ia e pupu ake ana, a te ora tonu ra ano.
15 Ka mea te wahine ki a ia, E kara, homai ki ahau tenei wai, kei mate ahau i te wai, kei haere mai hoki ki konei rawa utu ai
16 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Tikina, karangatia to tahu, ka hoki mai ai.
17 Ka whakahoki te wahine, ka mea, Kahore aku tahu. Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, He korero tika tau, Kahore aku tahu:
18 Ina hoki kua tokorima au tahu; ko ia i a koe nei ehara i te tahu nau: he pono tenei korero au.
19 Ka mea te wahine ki a ia, E kara, e kite ana ahau he poropiti koe.
20 I karakia o matou matua i runga i tenei maunga; a e mea ana koutou, Ko Hiruharama te wahi e tika ai te karakia.
21 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, E tai, whakapono ki ahau, meake puta te wa, e kore ai koutou e karakia ki te Matua i runga i tenei maunga, e kore ano i Hiruharama.
22 Kahore koutou e mohio ki ta koutou e karakia nei: e matau ana matou ki ta matou e karakia nei; no nga Hurai nei hoki te ora.
23 Otira meake puta te wa, a tenei ano, e karakia ai nga kaikarakia pono ki te Matua i runga i te wairua, i te pono: e rapu ana hoki te Matua ki te pera hei karakia ki a ia.
24 He Wairua te Atua: me karakia hoki nga kaikarakia ki a ia i runga i te wairua, i te pono.
25 Ka mea te wahine ki a ia, E matau ana ahau kei te haere mai te Mihaia, e kiia nei ko te Karaiti, ka tae mai ia, mana nga mea katoa e korero ki a tatou.
26 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ko ahau ano ia e korero nei ki a koe.
27 Na ka puta i reira ana akonga, ka miharo ki tana korerotanga ki te wahine: heoi kihai tetahi i mea, He aha tau e rapu? he aha koe ka korero ai ki a ia?
28 Na ka whakarerea e te wahine tana ipu, a haere ana ki te pa, ka mea ki nga tangata,
29 Haere mai, kia kite i te tangata i korerotia mai ai ki ahau nga mea katoa i mea ai ahau: ehara ranei tenei i a te Karaiti?
30 Ka puta ratou ki waho o te pa, a ka ahu mai ki a ia.
31 I taua takiwa ano ka tohe nga akonga ki a ia, ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, e kai ra.
32 Otira ka mea ia ki a ratou, he kai ano taku hei kai maku, kahore koutou e matau.
33 Na ka mea nga akonga tetahi ki tetahi, I kawea mai ranei e tetahi he kai mana?
34 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Ko taku kai tenei, ko te mea i ta toku kaitono e pai ai, kia whakaotia hoki tana mahi.
35 E kore ianei koutou e mea, Kia wha atu nga marama, a ka taea te kotinga? Nana, ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Kia ara ake o koutou kanohi, titiro ki nga mara; kua ma noa ake: ko te kotinga tenei.
36 Ka whiwhi te kaikokoti ki te utu, ka kohia ano hoki e ia nga hua mo te ora tonu: kia hari tahi ai te kairui raua ko te kaikokoti.
37 Na konei hoki i pono ai taua ki, E rui ana tetahi, e kokoti ana tetahi.
38 I tonoa koutou e ahau ki te kokoti i te mea kihai i mahia e koutou: he tangata ke nana i mahi, a kua uru koutou ki a ratou mahi.
39 A he tokomaha nga Hamari o taua pa i whakapono ki a ia, mo te ki a te wahine i mea ra, I korerotia mai e ia ki ahau nga mea katoa i mea ai ahau.
40 A, no ka tae nga Hamari ki a ia, ka mea kia noho ia ki a ratou: a e rua nga ra i noho ai ia ki reira.
41 Na hira noa ake nga tangata i whakapono, he mea hoki na tana kupu;
42 I mea ano ki te wahine, Ehara i te mea na tau kupu i whakapono ai matou inaianei: kua rongo nei hoki matou ake, a ka matau, ko te Karaiti pu tenei, ko te Kaiwhakaora o te ao.
43 Ka pahure aua ra e rua, ka turia atu e ia i reira, a haere ana ki Kariri.
44 Ko Ihu tonu hoki nana te ki, Kahore he honore o te poropiti i tona kainga ake.
45 Heoi, i tona taenga ki Kariri, ka whakamanuhiritia ia e nga tangata o Kariri, i kite hoki ratou i nga mea katoa i meatia e ia ki Hiruharama i te hakari: i haere hoki ratou ki te hakari.
46 A ka tae ano a Ihu ki Kana o Kariri, ki te wahi i meatia ai e ia te wai hei waina. Na ko tetahi tangata a te kingi, kei Kaperenauma tana tama e mate ana.
47 A, no ka rongo ia kua tae mai a Ihu i Huria ki Kariri, ka haere ki a ia, ka inoi ki a ia kia haere ia ki te whakaora i tana tama; meake hoki marere.
48 Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ia, Ki te kahore koutou e kite i nga tohu, i nga merekara, e kore rawa koutou e whakapono.
49 Ka mea te tangata a te kingi ki a ia, E te Ariki, haere iho i te mea kahore ano kia mate noa taku tamaiti.
50 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Haere; kua ora tau tama. Na whakapono ana te tangata ki te kupu i korerotia e Ihu ki a ia, a haere ana.
51 A, i a ia e haere ana, ka tutaki ana pononga ki a ia, ka korero, Kua ora tau tamaiti.
52 Na ka ui ia ki a ratou ki te haora i matutu ake ai ia. Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Nonanahi, no te whitu o nga haora, i mutu ai tona ka.
53 Na ka mohio te papa, ko te tino haora ia i mea ai a Ihu ki a ia, Kua ora tau tama: a whakapono ana ia, ratou ko tona whare katoa.
54 Ko te rua ano tenei o nga merekara i meatia e Ihu, i muri i tona haerenga i Huria ki Kariri.
John 4
English Standard Version
Jesus and the Woman of Samaria
4 Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and (A)baptizing more disciples than John 2 (although Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples), 3 he left Judea and departed (B)again for Galilee. 4 (C)And he had to pass through Samaria. 5 So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the field (D)that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob's well was there; so Jesus, (E)wearied as he was from his journey, was sitting beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.[a]
7 A woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, (F)“Give me a drink.” 8 (For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.) 9 The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria?” ((G)For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) 10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you (H)living water.” 11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw water with, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? 12 (I)Are you greater than our father Jacob? (J)He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock.” 13 Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, 14 but (K)whoever drinks of the water that I will give him (L)will never be thirsty again.[b] The water that I will give him will become (M)in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” 15 The woman said to him, “Sir, (N)give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water.”
16 Jesus said to her, “Go, (O)call your husband, and come here.” 17 The woman answered him, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You are right in saying, ‘I have no husband’; 18 for you have had five husbands, and the one you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true.” 19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that (P)you are (Q)a prophet. 20 (R)Our fathers worshiped on (S)this mountain, but you say that (T)in Jerusalem is (U)the place where people ought to worship.” 21 Jesus said to her, (V)“Woman, believe me, (W)the hour is coming when (X)neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. 22 (Y)You worship what you do not know; (Z)we worship what we know, for (AA)salvation is (AB)from the Jews. 23 But (AC)the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father (AD)in spirit and (AE)truth, for the Father (AF)is seeking such people to worship him. 24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.” 25 The woman said to him, “I know that (AG)Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, (AH)he will tell us all things.” 26 Jesus said to her, (AI)“I who speak to you am he.”
27 Just then (AJ)his disciples came back. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but no one said, “What do you seek?” or, “Why are you talking with her?” 28 So the woman left her water jar and went away into town and said to the people, 29 “Come, see a man (AK)who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?” 30 They went out of the town and were coming to him.
31 Meanwhile the disciples were urging him, saying, (AL)“Rabbi, eat.” 32 But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.” 33 So the disciples said to one another, (AM)“Has anyone brought him something to eat?” 34 Jesus said to them, (AN)“My food is (AO)to do the will of him who sent me and (AP)to accomplish his work. 35 Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest’? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that (AQ)the fields are white for harvest. 36 Already the one who reaps is receiving wages and gathering fruit for eternal life, so that (AR)sower and (AS)reaper (AT)may rejoice together. 37 For here the saying holds true, (AU)‘One sows and another reaps.’ 38 I sent you to reap (AV)that for which you did not labor. Others have labored, (AW)and you have entered into their labor.”
39 Many Samaritans (AX)from that town believed in him (AY)because of (AZ)the woman's testimony, “He told me all that I ever did.” 40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days. 41 And many more believed (BA)because of his word. 42 They said to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, (BB)and we know that this is indeed (BC)the Savior (BD)of the world.”
43 After (BE)the two days he departed for Galilee. 44 (For Jesus himself had testified (BF)that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.) 45 So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, (BG)having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast. For (BH)they too had gone to the feast.
Jesus Heals an Official's Son
46 So he came again to (BI)Cana in Galilee, (BJ)where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was ill. 47 When this man heard that Jesus (BK)had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48 So Jesus said to him, (BL)“Unless you[c] see signs and wonders you will not believe.” 49 The official said to him, “Sir, come down (BM)before my child dies.” 50 Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way. 51 As he was going down, his servants[d] met him and told him that his son was recovering. 52 So he asked them the hour when he began to get better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour[e] the fever left him.” 53 The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” And he himself believed, (BN)and all his household. 54 (BO)This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.
