Romans 4-7
Maori Bible
4 He aha ra, ki ta tatou, te mea i riro i a Aperahama, i to tatou tupuna i runga i te kikokiko?
2 Mehemea hoki na nga mahi i tika ai a Aperahama, he mea tana e whakamanamana ai ia; otira kahore ki te Atua.
3 E pehea ana oti ta te karaipiture? I whakapono a Aperahama ki te Atua, a whakairia ana hei tika mona.
4 Na he tangata e mahi ana, e kore e kiia te utu mona he mea aroha noa, engari he mea mo tana.
5 Otira ko te tangata kahore e mahi, engari e whakapono ana ki te kaiwhakatika i te tangata karakiakore, ka whakairia tona whakapono hei tika mona.
6 Pera hoki me ta Rawiri korero i te manaaki ki te tangata, ka whakairia nei e te Atua he tika ki a ia, motu ke i nga mahi,
7 I ki ai ia, Ka hari te hunga kua oti a ratou mahi tutu te muru, o ratou hara te hipoki:
8 Ka hari te tangata e kore nei e whakairia e te Ariki he hara ki a ia.
9 E korerotia ana ranei tenei haringa mo te kotinga, mo te kotingakore ano ranei? e mea ana hoki tatou, I whakairia tona whakapono hei tika mo Aperahama.
10 He pehea ra te whakairinga? i a ia i te kotinga, i te kotingakore ranei? He teka i a ia i te kotinga, engari i te kotingakore:
11 A riro ana i a ia te kotinga hei tohu, hei hiri mo te tika o tona whakapono, i a ia i te kotingakore: kia waiho ai ia hei matua ki te hunga katoa e whakapono ana, ahakoa kahore ratou i kotia, kia whakairia ai te tika ki a ratou;
12 Hei matua ano mo te kotinga ki te hunga ehara i te mea no te kotinga anake, engari e takahi ana hoki i runga i nga tapuae o taua whakapono o to tatou matua, o Aperahama, i a ia kahore ano i kotia.
13 Ehara i te mea i na runga mai i te ture te kupu ki a Aperahama ratou ko ona uri mo te ao ka riro i a ia; engari i na runga mai i te tika o te whakapono.
14 Mehemea hoki ka riro i te hunga ture, kua tikangakore te whakapono, kua taka te kupu whakaari:
15 Ko ta te ture hoki e mahi ai, he riri; engari ki te kahore he ture, kahore hoki he hara.
16 Koia i na rototia ai i te whakapono, kia waiho ai ma te aroha noa; kia u ai te kupu whakaari ki te whanau katoa; ehara i te mea ki to te ture anake, engari ki to te whakapono ano o Aperahama, ko ia nei hoki te matua o tatou katoa,
17 Ko te mea hoki ia i tuhituhia, Kua waiho koe e ahau hei matua ki nga iwi maha, he matua i te aroaro o tana i whakapono ai, ara o te Atua, e whakaora nei i nga tupapaku, e karanga nei i nga mea kua kahore me te mea kei konei nei ano.
18 Ahakoa kahore he rawa, u tonu tona manakonako ki a ia, kia meinga ai ia hei matua mo nga iwi maha, pera me te mea i korerotia, Ka penei tau whanau.
19 Kihai ano i ngoikore tona whakapono, i mahara iho ia ki tona tinana, he penei me te mea kua tupapakutia, wahi iti hoki kua kotahi rau ona tau, ki te tupapakutanga hoki o te kopu o Hera:
20 Ae, i titiro ia ki te kupu whakaari a te Atua, kihai ia i ruarua i runga i te whakaponokore, engari ka kaha tonu tona whakapono, me te whakakororia ki te Atua,
21 U tonu hoki tona whakaaro e taea e ia te mea tana i korero ai.
22 Koia hoki i whakairia ai ki a ia hei tika.
23 Otira ehara i te mea he whakaaro ki a ia anake i tuhituhia ai taua whakairinga ki a ia;
24 Engari he whakaaro ki a tatou ano hoki; ka whakairia ki a tatou e whakapono nei ki te kaiwhakaara i a Ihu, i to tatou Ariki, i te hunga mate:
25 I tukua nei mo o tatou he, i whakaarahia mo tatou kia whakatikaia.
5 Na, i te mea ka tika nei i te whakapono, kia mau ta tatou maunga rongo ki te Atua, he mea na to tatou Ariki, na Ihu Karaiti;
2 Nana nei te whakatatanga i a tatou i runga i te whakapono ki tenei aroha noa e tu nei tatou; a kia hari tatou i te mea ka tumanako nei tatou ki te kororia o te Atua.
3 A ehara i te mea ko tera anake, engari kia whakamanamana ano tatou ki o tatou mamae: e mohio ana hoki ko ta te mamae e mahi ai he manawanui;
4 Ko ta te manawanui he matauranga; ko ta te matauranga he tumanako:
5 E kore ano e whakama i te mea ka tumanako nei: kua ringihia hoki te aroha o te Atua ki o tatou ngakau e te Wairua Tapu kua homai nei ki a tatou.
6 I a tatou hoki e ngoikore tonu ana, i te wa i rite ai, ka mate a te Karaiti mo te hunga karakiakore.
7 E mate whakauaua hoki tetahi mo te tangata tika: tera pea ia tetahi e maia rawa kia mate mo te tangata pai.
8 Heoi e whakakitea nuitia ana e te Atua tona aroha ki a tatou, i te mea, i a tatou ano e hara ana, ka mate a te Karaiti mo tatou.
9 Na, i a tatou ka tika nei i ona toto, tera noa ake he whakaoranga mana i a tatou i te riri o te Atua.
10 Mehemea hoki, i te wa he hoa whawhai tatou, ka houhia ta tatou rongo ki te Atua i runga i te matenga o tana Tama, tera noa ake, i te mea ka mau nei te rongo, he whakaoranga mo tatou, i a ia kua ora nei;
11 Ehara hoki i te mea ko tera anake, engari e whakamanamana ana ano tatou ki te Atua, he mea na to tatou Ariki, na Ihu Karaiti, nana nei tenei houhanga rongo ki a tatou.
12 Na, ka rite ki te putanga mai o te hara ki te ao, he mea na te tangata kotahi, me te mate ano i runga i te hara; ka horapa te mate ki nga tangata katoa; no te mea kua hara katoa:
13 I te ao nei hoki te hara, a tae noa mai te ture: otira e kore e whakairia te hara i te mea kahore he ture.
14 Ahakoa ra he mana kingi to te mate no Arama iho ano taea noatia a Mohi, ki te hunga rawa kihai nei i rite to ratou hara ki to Arama poka ke, he ahua nei hoki ia no tenei i taria nei.
15 Otira kihai i rite ki te hara te mea i homai noa mai. Mehemea hoki na te hara o te kotahi i mate ai te tokomaha, waihoki tera noa atu te huanga ki te tokomaha o to te Atua aroha noa, o te mea homai hoki i runga i te aroha noa o te tangata kotahi, o Ihu Karaiti.
16 Kihai ano hoki i rite te mea i homai ki to te kotahi i hara: no te kotahi hoki te whakawa i tau ai te he; no nga hara maha ia te mea i homai noa mai hei whakatika.
17 Mehemea hoki na te hara o te kotahi i kingi ai te mate, he mea na te tangata kotahi; waihoki tera noa ake he kingitanga i runga i te ora mo te hunga ka riro nei i a ratou te aroha noa e hua tonu nei, me te tika i homai noa nei, he mea na te kota hi, ara na Ihu Karaiti.
18 Ae ra, i te mea na te hara kotahi i tau ai te he ki nga tangata katoa, waihoki na te tika kotahi i puta ai te mea homai noa ki nga tangata katoa, e tika ai, e ora ai.
19 Na, i te mea na te tutu o te tangata kotahi i whai hara ai te tokomaha, waihoki na te ngohengohe o te kotahi, ka meinga te tokomaha kia tika.
20 I puta mai te ture kia nui ai te hara; heoi i te hara e nui noa ana, kua hua noa ake te aroha noa:
21 He mea hoki, i te hanga ko te hara te kingi i roto i te mate, kia kingi hoki ko te aroha noa i runga o te tika ki te ora tonu, he meatanga na Ihu Karaiti, na to tatou Ariki.
6 Ha, kia pehea he korero ma tatou? Kia mau tonu oti tatou ki te hara, kia hua ai te aroha noa?
2 Kahore rapea. Ko tatou kua whakatupapakutia nei ki te hara, me pehea tatou e noho tonu atu ai ano i roto i taua hara?
3 Kahore ianei koutou i mohio, ko tatou kua iriiria nei ki roto ki a Karaiti Ihu, kua iriiria ki roto ki tona matenga?
4 Na kua tanumia ngatahitia tatou me ia ki roto ki te matenga, he mea na te iriiri: kia rite ai ki a te Karaiti i whakaarahia ake nei i te hunga mate e te kororia o te Matua, waihoki ko tatou kia haere i roto i te houtanga o te ora.
5 Ki te mea hoki kua honoa tatou ki a ia i runga i te ahua o tona matenga, ka honoa ano tatou ki a ia i runga i te ahua o tona aranga:
6 E mohio ana hoki ki tenei, kua ripekatia ngatahitia me ia to tatou tangata tawhito, kia hemo ai te tinana o te hara, kia mutu ai to tatou ponongatanga ki te hara;
7 Ko te mea hoki kua mate, kua mawheto ia i te hara.
8 Ki te mea kua mate tahi tatou ko te Karaiti, e whakapono ana tatou e ora tahi ano tatou me ia:
9 E matau ana hoki tatou, ka ara nei a te Karaiti i te hunga mate, heoi ano ona matenga; kahore he kingitanga o te mate ki a ia a mua tonu atu.
10 Ko tona matenga hoki i mate ai ia, he mate kotahi ki te hara: ko tona oranga ia, he ora ki te Atua.
11 Waihoki mahara iho ki a koutou, kua whakatupapakutia koutou ki te hara, e ora ana ia ki te Atua, i roto i a Ihu Karaiti.
12 Mo konei ra aua te hara e kingi i roto i to koutou tinana mate, e ngohengohe ai koutou ki ta nga hiahia poke o taua tinana nei:
13 Kaua hoki e tukua o koutou wahi ki te hara hei kaimahi i te he: engari tukua atu koutou ki te Atua, he hunga kua ora i roto i te hunga mate, me o koutou wahi hoki hei kaimahi i te tika ki te Atua.
14 E kore hoki te hara e waiho hei rangatira mo koutou: ehara i te mea kei raro koutou i te ture, engari kei raro ke i te aroha noa.
15 He aha koia? kia hara oti tatou, no te mea ehara tatou i te ture, engari no te aroha noa? Kahore rapea.
16 Kahore oti koutou i matau, ki te tuku koutou i a koutou ki tetahi hei pononga, he pononga koutou na tera kua ngohengohe na koutou ki tana; na te hara ranei, a mate iho, na te ngohengohe ranei, a tika ake?
17 Ko tenei me whakawhetai ki te Atua, ahakoa he pononga koutou na te hara i mua, kua meinga o koutou ngakau kia ngohengohe ki te ako i whakaakona ai koutou;
18 Na ka atea nei koutou i te hara, ka meinga koutou he pononga na te tika.
19 He kupu tangata tenei naku, na te ngoikore o to koutou kikokiko: na i tukua ra o koutou wahi hei pononga ma te poke, ma te tutu, ki te mahi tutu; waihoki me tuku o koutou wahi aianei hei pononga ma te tika, puta ake he tapu.
20 I a koutou hoki e pononga ana ki te hara, e atea ana koutou i te tika.
21 Na i taua wa he aha nga hua i a koutou o nga mea e whakama na koutou inaianei? he mate hoki te mutunga o aua mea.
22 Tena ko tenei ka atea nei koutou i te hara, a ka meinga hei pononga ma te Atua, ko nga hua ki a koutou he tapu, a, ko te tukunga iho he ora tonu.
23 Ko nga utu hoki o te hara he mate; ko ta te Atua ia i homai ai he ora tonu, i roto i a Karaiti Ihu, i to tatou Ariki.
7 Kahore ano koutou kia matau, e oku teina, e korero ana hoki ahau ki te hunga matau ki te ture, hei rangatira te ture mo te tangata i te wa e ora ai ia?
2 Ko te wahine whai tane hoki, e mau ana ano ia i te ture ki te tane i a ia e ora ana; ki te mate ia te tane, kua mawheto ia i te ture a te tane.
3 Na, ki te riro ia i te tangata ke i tana tane e ora ana ano, ka kiia ia he wahine puremu: tena ka mate te tane, e atea ana a i te ture, ka kore ia e puremu ahakoa riro i te tangata ke.
4 Heoi ko koutou ano hoki, e oku teina, kua meinga kia tupapaku ki te ture, na te tinana o te Karaiti; kia riro ai koutou i tetahi atu, ara i tera i whakaarahia i te hunga mate, kia whai hua ai tatou ki te Atua.
5 I a tatou hoki i te kikokiko, e mahi ana nga hihiritanga o nga hara, e whakaohokia nei e te ture, i roto i o tatou wahi, a hua ake ko te mate.
6 Ko tenei kua mawheto mai tatou i te ture, kua mate hoki tatou ki te mea i puritia ai tatou; no reira e mahi ana tatou i runga i te houtanga o te wairua, kahore i runga i te tawhitotanga o te kupu tuhituhi.
7 Kia pehea ra he kupu ma tatou? He hara ranei te ture? Kahore rapea. Engari kihai ahau i matau ki te hara, me i kaua te ture: kahore hoki ahau i mohio ki te hiahia apo, me i kaua te ture te mea mai, Aua koe e hiahia apo.
8 Na, ka mau te hara ki tenei, a ka mahi i nga hiahia apo katoa i roto i ahau, he mea na te ture. Ki te kore hoki te ture ka mate te hara.
9 I ora hoki ahau i mua i te korenga o te ture: no te taenga mai ia o te kupu whakahau, ka ora ake te hara, a mate iho ahau.
10 Na, ko te kupu whakahau i meinga ra hei ora, kitea ketia ana tenei hei mate moku.
11 Ka mau te hara ki tenei, ka whakawai hoki i ahau i runga i te kupu whakahau, nana ahau i mate ai.
12 Ae ra, he tapu te ture, me te kupu whakahau ano he tapu, he tika, he pai.
13 I riro koia te mea pai hei mate moku? Kahore rapea. Engari na te hara i mea te mea pai hei mate moku, kia whakakitea ai he hara te hara; na ka ai te kupu whakahau hei mea kia tino nui noa atu.
14 E matau ana hoki tatou no te wairua te ture: ko ahau ia no te kikokiko, kua hokona hei parau ma te hara.
15 Ko taku hoki e mahi nei kahore e mohiotia iho e ahau: kahore hoki e mahia e ahau taku i pai ai; heoi ko taku i kino ai, meatia ana tenei e ahau.
16 Ki te mahia ia e ahau taua mea kihai nei ahau i pai atu, e whakaae ana ahau ki te ture he pai.
17 Ko tenei ehara i ahau i mahi, engari na te hara e noho nei i roto i ahau.
18 E matau ana hoki ahau, kahore he mea pai e noho ana i roto i ahau, ara i roto i toku kikokiko: ko te hiahia hoki kei ahau, ko te mea ia i te pai kahore i ahau.
19 Ko te pai hoki e hiahiatia ana e ahau, kahore e mahia e ahau: engari te kino kihai nei ahau i pai, mahia ana tenei e ahau.
20 Ki te mahia ia e ahau taua mea pu kihai nei ahau i pai atu, ehara i ahau nana taua mea i mahi, engari na te hara e noho nei i roto i ahau.
21 Na, kua kitea e ahau te ture, ara kei te tata tonu te kino ki ahau e hiahia nei kia mea i te pai.
22 E ahuareka ana hoki ahau ki te ture a te Atua, ara to roto tangata:
23 Otira kua kitea e ahau tetahi atu ture i roto i oku wahi, e whawhai ana ki te ture a toku hinengaro, e mea ana i ahau hei taurekareka ma te ture a te hara, ma tenei i roto nei i oku wahi.
24 Aue, te mate i ahau! ma wai ahau e whakaora i te tinana o tenei mate?
25 Ma te Atua! E whakawhetai tonu ana ahau ki a ia i runga i a Ihu Karaiti, i to tatou Ariki. Na, e mahi ana ahau ano nei, ara, toku hinengaro, ki te ture a te Atua, ko toku kikokiko ia ki te ture a te hara.
