Na ka eke ia ki te kaipuke, ka whiti ki tawahi, ka haere ki tona pa.

Na ka kawea mai e ratou ki a ia tetahi pararutiki, e takoto ana i runga i te moenga; no te kitenga o Ihu i to ratou whakapono ka mea ia ki te pararutiki, E tama, kia maia; ka oti ou hara te muru.

Na ka mea etahi o nga karaipi ki a ratou ano, E kohukohu ana tenei tangata.

A, ka kite a Ihu i o ratou whakaaro, ka mea ia, He aha i kino ai nga whakaaro o roto o o koutou ngakau?

Ko tehea oti te mea takoto noa, ko te mea, Ka oti ou hara te muru; ko te mea ranei, Whakatika, haere?

Otira kia matau ai koutou he mana muru hara to te Tama a te tangata i runga i te whenua, katahi ia ka mea runga i te whenua, katahi ia ka mea ki te pararutiki, Whakatika, tangohia ake tou moenga, a haere ki tou whare.

Na whakatika ana ia, haere ana ki tona whare.

No te kitenga ia o te hui, ka wehi, ka whakakororia i te Atua, i homai ai tenei mana ki nga tangata.

A, i a Ihu e haere ana i reira, ka kite ia i tetahi tangata, ko Matiu te ingoa, e noho ana i te wahi tango takoha; a ka mea ki a ia, Arumia ahau. Na whakatika ana ia, aru ana i a ia.

10 A, i a ia e noho ana ki te kai i roto i te whare, na he tokomaha nga pupirikana me nga tangata hara i haere mai, i noho tahi ki a Ihu ratou ko ana akonga.

11 A, no te kitenga o nga Parihi, ka mea ki ana akonga, He aha to koutou Kaiwhakaako ka kai tahi ai me nga pupirikana, me nga tangata hara?

12 Otira ka rongo a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kahore he aha o nga tangata ora e meatia ai e te rata, engari o te hunga e mate ana.

13 Na haere, akona te tikanga o tenei, Ko taku e pai ai ko te tohu tangata, haunga te patunga tapu: kihai hoki ahau i haere mai ki te karanga i te hunga tika, engari i te hunga hara, kia ripeneta.

14 Me i reira ka haere mai ki a ia nga akonga a Hoani, ka mea, He aha i maha ai o matou ko nga Parihi nohoanga pukutanga a kahore au akonga e nohopuku?

15 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, E ahei ranei nga tamariki o te whare marena te tangi, i te mea kei a ratou te tane marena hou? Na, tera e tae mai nga ra, e tangohia ai te tane marena hou i a ratou, a ko reira nohopuku ai ratou.

16 E kore e meatia e te tangata tetahi wahi o te kahu hou hei papaki mo te kahu tawhito, no te mea ka riro tetahi wahi o taua kakahu i te whakakapi, a ka nui rawa te pakaru.

17 E kore e ringihia te waina hou ki nga ipu tawhito: kei pakaru nga ipu, a ka maringi te waina, kore ake nga ipu: erangi e ringihia ana te waina hou ki nga ipu hou, a ka ora taua rua.

18 I a ia e korero ana i enei mea ki a ratou, na ka haere mai tetahi rangatira, ka koropiko ki a ia, ka mea, Tenei kua marere taku tamahine: otira mau e haere ake, e whakapa tou ringa ki a ia, a ka ora.

19 Na ka whakatika a Ihu ratou ko ana akonga, a aru ana i a ia.

20 Na ko te haerenga ki muri i a ia o tetahi wahine, tekau ma rua nga tau i mate ai i te pakaruhanga toto, a ka pa ki te taniko o tona kakahu:

21 I mea hoki i roto i a ia, Kia pa kau oti ahau ki tona kakahu, ka ora ahau.

22 Na ka tahuri a Ihu, a ka kite i a ia, ka mea, Kia maia, e ko; na tou whakapono koe i ora ai. A ora ake te wahine i taua wa ano.

23 Na, i te taenga o Ihu ki te whare o te rangatira, ka kite i nga kaiwhakatangi putorino, i te huihui hoki e ngangau ana,

24 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Whakaatea: kahore hoki i mate te kotiro, erangi e moe ana. A kataina iho ia e ratou.

25 Heoi, ka oti te huihui te pei ki waho, ka tomo ia ki roto, ka mau ki tona ringa, a ara ake ana te kotiro.

26 A paku ana tenei rongo puta noa i taua whenua.

27 A, i a Ihu e haere atu ana i reira, tokorua nga matapo i aru i a ia, ka karanga ake, ka mea, E te Tama a Rawiri, kia aroha ki a maua.

28 A, ka tapoko ia ki te whare, ka haere atu nga matapo ki a ia: na ka mea a Ihu ki a raua, E whakapono ana ranei korua e taea tenei e ahau? Ka mea raua ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki.

29 Me i reira ka pa ia ki o raua kanohi, ka mea, Kia rite ki to korua whakapono te meatanga ki a korua.

30 Na kua kite o raua kanohi; katahi ka whakatupato a Ihu i a raua, ka mea, Kia mahara kei rangona e te tangata.

31 Ko raua ia i puta atu ki waho, a korerotia nuitia ana ia puta noa i taua whenua.

32 I a raua e puta ana ki waho, ka kawea mai ki a ia tetahi tangata wahangu, he rewera tona.

33 A, ka oti te rewera te pei, ka whai reo te wahangu; a miharo ana te mano, ka mea, Kahore ano i kitea te penei i roto i a Iharaira.

34 Otira ka mea nga Parihi, Na te rangatira o nga rewera tana peinga rewera.

35 Na ka haereerea e Ihu nga pa katoa me nga kainga, a ka ako i roto i o ratou whare karakia, ka kauwhau i te rongopai o te rangatiratanga, me te whakaora i te tini o nga mate, i te tini o nga turorotanga o te iwi.

36 A, no tona kitenga i nga mano, ka toko ake tona ngakau aroha ki a ratou, e mauiui ana hoki ratou, e marara ke ana, me he hipi heparakore.

37 Katahi ia ka mea ki ana akonga, He nui te kotinga, ko nga kaimahi ia he ruarua;

38 Na inoi atu ki te Ariki nana te kotinga, kia tonoa e ia he kaimahi ki tana kotinga.

Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralyzed Man(A)

Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town.(B) Some men brought to him a paralyzed man,(C) lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith,(D) he said to the man, “Take heart,(E) son; your sins are forgiven.”(F)

At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, “This fellow is blaspheming!”(G)

Knowing their thoughts,(H) Jesus said, “Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts? Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? But I want you to know that the Son of Man(I) has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “Get up, take your mat and go home.” Then the man got up and went home. When the crowd saw this, they were filled with awe; and they praised God,(J) who had given such authority to man.

The Calling of Matthew(K)

As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector’s booth. “Follow me,”(L) he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him.

10 While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples. 11 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”(M)

12 On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 13 But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’[a](N) For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”(O)

Jesus Questioned About Fasting(P)

14 Then John’s(Q) disciples came and asked him, “How is it that we and the Pharisees fast often,(R) but your disciples do not fast?”

15 Jesus answered, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them?(S) The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.(T)

16 “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. 17 Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”

Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman(U)

18 While he was saying this, a synagogue leader came and knelt before him(V) and said, “My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her,(W) and she will live.” 19 Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples.

20 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak.(X) 21 She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.”

22 Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart,(Y) daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.”(Z) And the woman was healed at that moment.(AA)

23 When Jesus entered the synagogue leader’s house and saw the noisy crowd and people playing pipes,(AB) 24 he said, “Go away. The girl is not dead(AC) but asleep.”(AD) But they laughed at him. 25 After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.(AE) 26 News of this spread through all that region.(AF)

Jesus Heals the Blind and the Mute

27 As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”(AG)

28 When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?”

“Yes, Lord,” they replied.(AH)

29 Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you”;(AI) 30 and their sight was restored. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one knows about this.”(AJ) 31 But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region.(AK)

32 While they were going out, a man who was demon-possessed(AL) and could not talk(AM) was brought to Jesus. 33 And when the demon was driven out, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowd was amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.”(AN)

34 But the Pharisees said, “It is by the prince of demons that he drives out demons.”(AO)

The Workers Are Few

35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness.(AP) 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them,(AQ) because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.(AR) 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest(AS) is plentiful but the workers are few.(AT) 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
