Maori Bible
20 A i tetahi o aua ra, i a ia e whakaako ana i te iwi i roto i te temepara, e kauwhau ana i te rongopai, ka tae mai nga tohunga nui, nga karaipi, me nga kaumatua ki a ia,
2 Ka korero ki a ia, ka mea, Korerotia mai ki a matou te mana i mea ai koe i enei mea? na wai hoki i hoatu tena mana ki a koe?
3 Ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, Maku hoki e ui ki a koutou kia kotahi kupu; ma koutou e mea mai ki ahau:
4 Ko te iriiringa a Hoani, no te rangi ranei, no te tangata ranei?
5 A ka korero ratou ki a ratou ano, ka mea, Ki te mea tatou, No te rangi; ka mea mai ia, Ha, he aha koutou te whakapono ai ki a ia?
6 A ki te mea tatou, No te tangata; ka akina tatou e te iwi katoa ki te kamaka: e whakapono ana hoki ratou he poropiti a Hoani
7 Na ka whakahokia e ratou, E kore e kitea no hea ranei.
8 Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ratou, E kore ano e korerotia e ahau ki a koutou te mana i mea ai ahau i enei mea.
9 Na ka anga ia ka korero i tenei kupu whakarite ki te iwi; I whakatokia tetahi mara waina e tetahi tangata, a tukua ana ki nga kaimahi, a haere ana ki tawhiti, a maha noa nga ra.
10 A i te po i tika ai ka tonoa e ia he pononga ki nga kaimahi, kia hoatu ai e ratou ki a ia etahi o nga hua o te mara waina: otira ka whiua ia e nga kaimahi, whakahokia kautia ana.
11 Na ka tonoa ano e ia tetahi atu pononga: a ka whiua ano ia e ratou, ka tukinotia, whakahokia kautia ana.
12 Na ka tonoa ano hoki tetahi e ia, te tuatoru: a tukitukia ana ia e ratou, maka ana ki waho.
13 Na ka mea te rangatira o te mara waina, Me pehea ahau? Ka tonoa e ahau taku tama, taku e aroha nei: tera pea ratou e hopohopo ki a ia.
14 Otira, no te kitenga o nga kaimahi i a ia, ka korerorero ki a ratou ano, ka mea, Ko te rangatira tenei mona te kainga: tena, tatou ka whakamate i a ia, kia riro mai ai te kainga i a tatou.
15 Na maka ana ia ki waho o te mara waina, whakamatea iho. Na ka aha te rangatira o te mara waina ki a ratou?
16 Ka haere ia, ka whakangaro i aua kaimahi, ka hoatu te mara waina ki etahi atu. A ka rongo ratou, ka mea, Kauaka.
17 Ka titiro ia ki a ratou, ka mea, He aha ra tenei kua oti nei te tuhituhi, Ko te kohatu i kapea e nga kaihanga, kua meinga tenei hei mo te kokonga?
18 Na, ki te hinga tetahi ki runga ki tenei kohatu, mongamonga noa; ki te hinga tenei kohatu ki runga ki tetahi, ngotangota noa ia, ano he puehu.
19 Na ka whai nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi kia hopukia ia i taua wa ano; ka mataku ratou i te iwi: i mohio hoki ratou i korerotia e ia tenei kupu whakarite mo ratou.
20 Na ka ata tirohia ia e ratou, ka tonoa mai he kaiwhakarongo, ano te ahua kei to te hunga tika, hei hopu mo tana korero, kia tukua ai ia ki te rangatiratanga, ki te kaha o te kawana.
21 A ka ui ratou ki a ia, ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, e mohio ana matou he tika tau e korero nei, e whakaako nei, e kore ano e manakohia e koe te kanohi tangata, engari e whakaako pono ana koe i te huarahi o te Atua:
22 He mea tika ranei te hoatu takoha e matou ki a Hiha, kahore ranei?
23 Otira i kitea e ia to ratou hianga, a ka mea kia ratou, He aha koutou ka whakamatautau nei i ahau?
24 Kia kite ahau i tetahi pene. No wai tona ahua me te tuhituhinga? Na ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea, No Hiha.
25 Katahi ia ka mea ki a ratou, hoatu rapea ki a Hiha nga mea a Hiha, ki te Atua ano nga mea a te Atua.
26 Heoi kihai i taea e ratou te hopu i tetahi korero ana i te aroaro o te iwi: na ka miharo ratou ki tana kupu, a whakarongo kau ana.
27 Na ka tae mai etahi o nga Haruki e mea nei kahore he aranga; ka ui ki a ia,
28 Ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, i tuhituhi a Mohi ki a matou, Ki te mate te tuakana o tetahi tangata, he wahine ano tana, a ka mate urikore ia, me tango te wahine e tona teina, ka whakatupu uri ai mo tona tuakana.
29 Na, tokowhitu taua whanau; ka tango to mua i te wahine, a mate urikore ana.
30 Na ka tango te tuarua i te wahine, a ka mate urikore ano ia.
31 Na ka tango te tuatoru i a ia; penei ano nga tokowhitu: kahore a ratou tamariki i waiho ai, a mate iho ratou.
32 Na muri iho i te katoa ka mate hoki te wahine.
33 Na, i te aranga, ma wai o ratou te wahine? he wahine hoki ia na te tokowhitu.
34 Ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, E marena ana, e hoatu ana ki te marena, nga tamariki o tenei ao:
35 Tena ko te hunga e paingia ana kia whiwhi ki tera ao, ki te aranga ano i roto i te hunga mate, e kore e marena, e kore ano e hoatu ki te marena:
36 E kore ano ratou e ahei kia mate: e rite ana hoki ki nga anahera; he tama hoki ratou na te Atua, he tama na te aranga.
37 Na, ko te aranga o te hunga mate, kua whakakitea mai tena e Mohi i tana mo te rakau, i karangatia ai te Ariki ko te Atua o Aperahama, ko te Atua o Ihaka, ko te Atua o Hakopa.
38 Na ehara ia i te Atua no te hunga mate, engari no te hunga ora: e ora katoa ana hoki i roto i a ia.
39 Na ka whakahoki etahi o nga karaipi ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, he pai tau korero.
40 Kihai hoki ratou i maia ki te ui ano ki a ia i tetahi mea.
41 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, na te aha ratou i mea ai he tama na Rawiri a te Karaiti?
42 Kua mea nei a Rawiri i te pukapuka o nga waiata, I mea te Ariki ki toku Ariki, hei toku matau koe noho ai,
43 Kia meinga ra ano e ahau ou hoariri hei turanga waewae mou.
44 Na ka kiia ia e Rawiri he Ariki, a he pehea i tama ai ki a ia?
45 A, i te iwi katoa e whakarongo ana, ka mea ia ki ana akonga,
46 Kia tupato ki nga karaipi, ko ta ratou nei e rawe ai ko nga kakahu roroa ina haereere ratou, e matenui ana ki nga ohatanga i nga kainga hokohoko, me nga nohoanga rangatira i nga whare karakia me nga nohoanga rangatira i nga hakari:
47 Pau ake hoki i a ratou nga whare o nga pouaru, e inoi roa ana hoki, he ahua kau: nui rawa te he e tau ki a ratou.

New International Version
Luke 20
New International Version
The Authority of Jesus Questioned(A)
20 One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts(B) and proclaiming the good news,(C) the chief priests and the teachers of the law, together with the elders, came up to him. 2 “Tell us by what authority you are doing these things,” they said. “Who gave you this authority?”(D)
3 He replied, “I will also ask you a question. Tell me: 4 John’s baptism(E)—was it from heaven, or of human origin?”
5 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’ 6 But if we say, ‘Of human origin,’ all the people(F) will stone us, because they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”(G)
7 So they answered, “We don’t know where it was from.”
8 Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
The Parable of the Tenants(H)
9 He went on to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard,(I) rented it to some farmers and went away for a long time.(J) 10 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants so they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 11 He sent another servant, but that one also they beat and treated shamefully and sent away empty-handed. 12 He sent still a third, and they wounded him and threw him out.
13 “Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my son, whom I love;(K) perhaps they will respect him.’
14 “But when the tenants saw him, they talked the matter over. ‘This is the heir,’ they said. ‘Let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
“What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? 16 He will come and kill those tenants(L) and give the vineyard to others.”
When the people heard this, they said, “God forbid!”
17 Jesus looked directly at them and asked, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written:
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.”(N)
19 The teachers of the law and the chief priests looked for a way to arrest him(O) immediately, because they knew he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people.(P)
Paying Taxes to Caesar(Q)
20 Keeping a close watch on him, they sent spies, who pretended to be sincere. They hoped to catch Jesus in something he said,(R) so that they might hand him over to the power and authority of the governor.(S) 21 So the spies questioned him: “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and that you do not show partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.(T) 22 Is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
23 He saw through their duplicity and said to them, 24 “Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?”
“Caesar’s,” they replied.
25 He said to them, “Then give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s,(U) and to God what is God’s.”
26 They were unable to trap him in what he had said there in public. And astonished by his answer, they became silent.
The Resurrection and Marriage(V)
27 Some of the Sadducees,(W) who say there is no resurrection,(X) came to Jesus with a question. 28 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.(Y) 29 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a woman and died childless. 30 The second 31 and then the third married her, and in the same way the seven died, leaving no children. 32 Finally, the woman died too. 33 Now then, at the resurrection whose wife will she be, since the seven were married to her?”
34 Jesus replied, “The people of this age marry and are given in marriage. 35 But those who are considered worthy of taking part in the age to come(Z) and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage, 36 and they can no longer die; for they are like the angels. They are God’s children,(AA) since they are children of the resurrection. 37 But in the account of the burning bush, even Moses showed that the dead rise, for he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’[b](AB) 38 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.”
39 Some of the teachers of the law responded, “Well said, teacher!” 40 And no one dared to ask him any more questions.(AC)
Whose Son Is the Messiah?(AD)
41 Then Jesus said to them, “Why is it said that the Messiah is the son of David?(AE) 42 David himself declares in the Book of Psalms:
“‘The Lord said to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand
43 until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet.”’[c](AF)
44 David calls him ‘Lord.’ How then can he be his son?”
Warning Against the Teachers of the Law
45 While all the people were listening, Jesus said to his disciples, 46 “Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.(AG) 47 They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”
