John 15

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

Ko ahau te waina pono, ko toku Matua te kaimahi.

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

Ko nga manga katoa i roto i ahau e kore e whai hua, e tangohia e ia: ko nga mea katoa hoki e whai hua ana, ka whakapaia e ia, kia maha atu ai ona hua.

Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

Na kua ma tenei koutou i te kupu i korerotia e ahau ki a koutou.

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

Kia u koutou ki roto ki ahau, me ahau hoki ki roto ki a koutou. Ka rite hoki ki te manga e kore e whai hua ko ia anake, ki te kahore e u ki te waina; e kore ano hoki koutou, ki te kore e u ki roto ki ahau.

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

Ko ahau te waina, ko koutou nga manga: ki te u tetahi ki roto ki ahau, me ahau hoki ki roto ki a ia, ka maha o tera hua: ki te motu ke hoki i ahau, e kore tetahi mea e taea e koutou.

If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Ki te kore e u tetahi ki roto ki ahau, ka maka atu ia, ano he manga, a ka maroke; na ka kohikohia, ka maka ki te kapura, ka tahuna.

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

Ki te u koutou ki roto ki ahau, ki te u ano aku kupu ki roto ki a koutou, inoia e koutou ta koutou e pai ai, a ka meatia ma koutou.

Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

Ka whakakororiatia toku Matua ki te penei, ki te whai hua maha koutou: a ka meinga koutou he akonga naku.

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

Rite tonu ki to te Matua aroha ki ahau toku aroha ki a koutou: kia u ki toku aroha.

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Ki te pupuri koutou i aku ture, ka u koutou ki toku aroha: me ahau hoki kua pupuri nei i nga ture a toku Matua, ka u nei ki tona aroha.

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

Kua korerotia enei mea e ahau ki a koutou, kia pumau ai toku koa i roto i a koutou, kia tino ki ai to koutou koa.

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

Ko taku ture tenei, Kia aroha koutou tetahi ki tetahi, me ahau hoki kua aroha nei ki a koutou.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Kahore he aroha o tetahi i rahi ake i tenei, ara kia tuku te tangata i a ia ano kia mate mo ona hoa.

Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

Ko koutou oku hoa, ki te meatia e koutou aku e whakahau nei ki a koutou.

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

Heoi ano taku meatanga he pononga koutou; e kore hoki te pononga e mohio ki ta tona ariki e mea ai: engari kua oti koutou te hua e ahau he hoa; ko aku mea katoa hoki i rongo ai ahau ki toku Matua, kua oti te whakakite e ahau ki a koutou.

Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

Kahore koutou i whiriwhiri i ahau, engari naku koutou i whiriwhiri, naku ano koutou i mea kia haere, kia whai hua, kia mau tonu hoki o koutou hua: a ko ta koutou e inoi ai ki te Matua i runga i toku ingoa, ka hoatu e ia ki a koutou.

These things I command you, that ye love one another.

Ko aku whakahau enei ki a koutou, kia aroha koutou tetahi ki tetahi.

If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

Ki te mea e kinongia ana koutou e te ao, e mohio ana koutou i kinongia ahau i mua i a koutou.

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Mehemea no te ao koutou, e arohaina e te ao ona: tena ko tenei ehara nei koutou i te ao, naku koutou i whiriwhiri i roto i te ao, koia te ao ka kino ai ki a koutou.

Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

Kia mahara ki te kupu i korero ai ahau ki a koutou, kahore te pononga e rahi ake i tona ariki. Ki te mea i whakatoia ahau e ratou, ka whakatoia ano koutou; ki te mea i pupuri ratou i taku kupu, ka pupuri ano ratou i ta koutou.

But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.

Otira e meatia katoatia enei mea e ratou ki a koutou he whakaaro ki toku ingoa, no te mea kahore ratou i mohio ki toku kaitono mai.

If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.

Me i kaua ahau te haere mai, te korero ki a ratou, penei kahore o ratou hara: tena ko tenei kahore o ratou whakaoraora mo to ratou hara.

He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

Ko te tangata e whakakino ana ki ahau, e whakakino ana hoki ki toku Matua.

If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

Me i kaua te mahia e ahau i roto i a ratou nga mahi kahore i mahia e tetahi atu, penei kahore o ratou hara: tena ko tenei kua kite ratou, kua whakakino ano hoki ki a maua tahi ko toku Matua.

But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

Ma tenei ia ka rite ai te kupu i tuhituhia ki ta ratou ture, Kua kino noa ratou ki ahau.

But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

Otiia ka tae mai te Kaiwhakamarie e tonoa mai e ahau ki a koutou i te Matua, te Wairua o te pono, e puta mai ana i te Matua, ko ia hei kaiwhakaatu moku:

And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

Ko koutou ano hoki hei kaiwhakaatu, no te mea i ahau koutou no te timatanga iho ra ano.
