I aua ra i te mea he nui rawa te mano, kahore hoki he kai ma ratou, ka karanga a Ihu ki ana akonga, ka mea ki a ratou,

E aroha ana ahau ki nga tangata, ka toru nei hoki o ratou ra e noho ana ki ahau, a kahore a ratou kai:

Ki te tonoa pukutia ratou e ahau ki to ratou kainga, ka hemo ki te ara; i haere mai hoki etahi o ratou i tawhiti.

Na ka whakahokia e ana akonga ki a ia, Me aha e te tangata ka makona ai enei i te taro i konei, i te koraha?

Ka ui ia ki a ratou, E hia a koutou taro? Ka mea ratou, E whitu.

Na ka mea ia ki te mano kia noho ki te whenua: a ka mau ki nga taro e whitu, ka whakawhetai, ka whawhati, a hoatu ana e ia ki ana akonga kia whakatakotoria ki mua i a ratou: whakatakotoria ana e ratou ma te mano.

He ika ano a ratou torutoru nei, he mea nonohi: a ka mutu te whakapai, ka mea ia kia whakatakotoria hoki era.

Na kai ana ratou, a ka makona: a kohia ake ana o nga whatiwhatinga i toe e whitu nga kete.

Me te mea e wha mano te hunga i kai: a tonoa atu ana ratou e ia.

10 Na eke tonu ia ratou ko ana akonga ki te kaipuke, a ka tae ki nga wahi o Taramanuta.

11 Na ka puta mai nga parihi, ka anga ka totohe ki a ia, ka rapu tohu ki a ia i te rangi, hei whakamatautau mona.

12 Na ka hotu tona wairua, ka mea ia, He aha tenei whakatupuranga ka rapu ai ki te tohu? he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, E kore e hoatu he tohu ki tenei whakatupuranga.

13 Na mahue ake ratou i a ia, a eke ana ano ki te kaipuke, rere ana ki tera taha.

14 Na i wareware ratou ki te mau taro, kotahi tonu a ratou taro i te kaipuke.

15 Na ka whakatupato ia i a ratou, ka mea, Kia mahara, kia tupato i te rewena a nga Parihi, i te rewena hoki a Herora.

16 A ka korerorero ratou ki a ratou ano, ka mea, No te mea kahore a tatou taro.

17 Ka mohio a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, he aha koutou ka korerorero ai no te mea kahore a koutou taro? kiano koutou i matau noa, kiano i mahara? e pakeke tonu ana ano ranei o koutou ngakau?

18 He kanohi nei o koutou, a kahore e kite? he taringa nei o koutou, a kahore e rongo? kahore e mahara?

19 I ahau i whawhati i nga taro e rima ma nga mano e rima, e hia nga kete ki o nga whatiwhatinga i kohia e koutou? Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Kotahi tekau ma rua.

20 A i nga taro hoki e whitu ma nga mano e wha, e hia nga kete ki o nga whatiwhatinga i kohia e koutou? Ka mea ratou, E whitu.

21 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kahore ano ia koutou kia matau noa?

22 A ka tae ratou ki Petahaira. Na ka kawea mai e ratou he matapo ki a ia, ka inoi ki a ia kia whakapangia e ia.

23 Na ka mau ia ki te ringa o te matapo, ka arahi i a ia ki waho o te kainga; ka tuwha ki ona kanohi, a ka whakapa i ona ringa ki a ia, ka ui ki a ia me kore ia e kite i tetahi mea.

24 Na ka titiro ake ia, ka mea, E kite ana ahau i nga tangata e haereere ana me te mea he rakau.

25 Me i reira ka whakapakia ano nga ringa ki ona kanohi, ka mea i a ia kia titiro: na ka ora ia, a ka marama te titiro ki nga mea katoa.

26 Na ka tono ia i a ia ki tona whare, ka mea atu, Kaua e tomo ki te kainga.

27 Na ka haere a Ihu ratou ko ana akonga ki nga kainga o Hiharia Piripai: a i te ara ka ui ia ki ana akonga, ka mea ki a ratou, Ki ta nga tangata ki, ko wai ahau?

28 Na ko ta ratou whakahokinga, Ko Hoani Kaiiriiri: ki ta etahi, Ko Iraia; ki ta etahi, Ko tetahi o nga poropiti.

29 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ki ta koutou na ki, ko wai ahau? Na ka whakahoki a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, Ko te Karaiti koe.

30 Na ka whakatupato ia i a ratou, kia kaua ia e korerotia ki te tangata.

31 Katahi ia ka anga ka whakaako i a ratou, kua takoto te tikanga kia maha nga mamae o te Tama a te tangata, kia whakakinongia hoki e nga kaumatua, e nga tohunga nui, e nga karaipi, a kia whakamatea, a kia ara ano ina pahure nga ra e toru.

32 I korerotia matanuitia ano taua kupu e ia. Na ka mau a Pita ki a ia, ka anga ka whakahe ki tana.

33 Otira ka tahuri ia, a, i te kitenga i ana akonga, ka whakahe ki ta Pita, ka mea, haere ki muri i ahau, e Hatana: kahore hoki ou ngakau ki nga mea a te Atua, engari ki a te tangata.

34 Na ka karangatia e ia te mano, ratou ko ana akonga, ka mea ki a ratou, Ki te mea tetahi tangata kia haere mai ki te whai i ahau, me whakakahore ia i a ia ano, me amo i tona ripeka, ka aru ai i ahau.

35 Ki te whai tetahi kia ora, ka mate ia; ki te mate hoki tetahi, mona i whakaaro ki ahau, ki te rongopai hoki, ka ora ia.

36 A he aha te pai ki te tangata, ki te riro i a ia te ao katoa, a ka kore he ora mona?

37 He aha hoki ta te tangata e hoatu ai hei utu mona kia ora?

38 Ki te whakama hoki tetahi ki ahau, ki aku korero, i tenei whakatupuranga puremu, kino, ka whakama ano te Tama a te tangata ki a ia, ina haere mai i runga i te kororia o tona Matua, ratou ko nga anahera tapu.

Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand(A)(B)(C)

During those days another large crowd gathered. Since they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people;(D) they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them home hungry, they will collapse on the way, because some of them have come a long distance.”

His disciples answered, “But where in this remote place can anyone get enough bread to feed them?”

“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked.

“Seven,” they replied.

He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. When he had taken the seven loaves and given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people, and they did so. They had a few small fish as well; he gave thanks for them also and told the disciples to distribute them.(E) The people ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.(F) About four thousand were present. After he had sent them away, 10 he got into the boat with his disciples and went to the region of Dalmanutha.

11 The Pharisees came and began to question Jesus. To test him, they asked him for a sign from heaven.(G) 12 He sighed deeply(H) and said, “Why does this generation ask for a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to it.” 13 Then he left them, got back into the boat and crossed to the other side.

The Yeast of the Pharisees and Herod

14 The disciples had forgotten to bring bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat. 15 “Be careful,” Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast(I) of the Pharisees(J) and that of Herod.”(K)

16 They discussed this with one another and said, “It is because we have no bread.”

17 Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked them: “Why are you talking about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Are your hearts hardened?(L) 18 Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don’t you remember? 19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?”

“Twelve,”(M) they replied.

20 “And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?”

They answered, “Seven.”(N)

21 He said to them, “Do you still not understand?”(O)

Jesus Heals a Blind Man at Bethsaida

22 They came to Bethsaida,(P) and some people brought a blind man(Q) and begged Jesus to touch him. 23 He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit(R) on the man’s eyes and put his hands on(S) him, Jesus asked, “Do you see anything?”

24 He looked up and said, “I see people; they look like trees walking around.”

25 Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. 26 Jesus sent him home, saying, “Don’t even go into[a] the village.”

Peter Declares That Jesus Is the Messiah(T)

27 Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”

28 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist;(U) others say Elijah;(V) and still others, one of the prophets.”

29 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”

Peter answered, “You are the Messiah.”(W)

30 Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about him.(X)

Jesus Predicts His Death(Y)

31 He then began to teach them that the Son of Man(Z) must suffer many things(AA) and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law,(AB) and that he must be killed(AC) and after three days(AD) rise again.(AE) 32 He spoke plainly(AF) about this, and Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.

33 But when Jesus turned and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter. “Get behind me, Satan!”(AG) he said. “You do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”

The Way of the Cross

34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.(AH) 35 For whoever wants to save their life[b] will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.(AI) 36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? 37 Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? 38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man(AJ) will be ashamed of them(AK) when he comes(AL) in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
