Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1And when morning was come, all the chief priests and ancients of the people took counsel against Jesus, that they might put him to death.
1Pea kuo pongipongi hake, pea fealēleaʻaki ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi kotoa pē mo e kau mātuʻa ʻoe kakai kia Sisu, ke tāmateʻi ia:
2And they brought him bound, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
2Pea hili ʻenau haʻi ia, naʻa nau toki ʻave ia kia Ponito Pailato ko e pule.
3Then Judas, who betrayed him, seeing that he was condemned, repenting himself, brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and ancients,
3¶ Pea ko Siutasi, ʻaia naʻa ne lavakiʻi ia, ʻi heʻene mamata kuo fakamaau ia ke mate, naʻe fakatomala ia, ʻo ne toe ʻomi ʻae konga siliva ʻe tolungofulu ki he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau mātuʻa,
4Saying: I have sinned in betraying innocent blood. But they said: What is that to us? look thou to it.
4ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo u fai angahala ʻi heʻeku lavakiʻi ʻae toto māʻoniʻoni.” Pea nau pehē, “Ko e hā ia kiate kimautolu? Vakai pe ʻe koe.”
5And casting down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed: and went and hanged himself with an halter.
5Pea lī ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi konga siliva ki lalo ʻi he falelotu lahi, ʻo ne ʻalu atu ʻo noʻouʻa ia.
6But the chief priests having taken the pieces of silver, said: It is not lawful to put them into the corbona, because it is the price of blood.
6Pea toʻo mai ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi ʻae ngaahi konga siliva, ʻonau pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai ngofua ke ʻai ia ki he puha koloa, he ko e totongi ia ʻoe toto.”
7And after they had consulted together, they bought with them the potter’s field, to be a burying place for strangers.
7Pea naʻa nau fakakaukau, pea toki fakatauʻaki ia ʻae ngoue ʻae tufunga ngaohi ipu, ke tanu ai ʻae kakai muli.
8For this cause the field was called Haceldama, that is, The field of blood, even to this day.
8Ko ia naʻe ui ʻae ngoue ko ia, “ko e ngoue ʻoe toto”, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
9Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremias the prophet, saying: And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was prized, whom they prized of the children of Israel.
9Pea fakamoʻoni ai ia ʻaia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe he palōfita, ko Selemaia, ʻo pehē, “Pea naʻa nau toʻo ʻae konga siliva ʻe tolungofulu, ko hono totongi ʻo ia naʻe fakatau, ʻaia naʻe fakatatau ia ki ai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli;
10And they gave them unto the potter’s field, as the Lord appointed to me.
10ʻo totongi ʻaki ia ʻae ngoue ʻae tufunga ngaohi ipu, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kiate au.”
11And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? Jesus saith to him: Thou sayest it.
11Pea tuʻu ʻa Sisu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe pule: pea fehuʻi ʻae pule kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e tuʻi koe ʻoe kakai Siu?” Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko ia pe.”
12And when he was accused by the chief priests and ancients, he answered nothing.
12Pea ʻi he talakoviʻi ia ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau mātuʻa, naʻe longo pe ia.
13Then Pilate saith to him: Dost not thou hear how great testimonies they allege against thee?
13Pea toki lea ʻa Pailato kiate ia, “ʻIkai te ke fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa lahi ni ʻoku nau fakaʻilo ʻiate koe?”
14And he answered him to never a word; so that the governor wondered exceedingly.
14Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito lea ia ki ai; ko ia naʻe ofo lahi ʻaupito ai ʻae pule.
15Now upon the solemn day the governor was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whom they would.
15Pea ko e meʻa naʻe fai ʻe he pule ʻi he kātoanga ko ia, ko e vete ʻo tuku atu ki he kakai ha pōpula ʻe tokotaha, naʻa nau loto ki ai.
16And he had then a notorious prisoner, that was called Barabbas.
16Pea naʻa nau maʻu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻae pōpula ongoongo, naʻe ui ko Palāpasa.
17They therefore being gathered together, Pilate said: Whom will you that I release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus that is called Christ?
17Ko ia ʻi he kātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu, naʻe pehē ai ʻe Pailato kiate kinautolu, “Ko hai ʻoku mou loto ke u tuku atu kiate kimoutolu? ʻA Palāpasa, pe ko Sisu ʻaia ʻoku ui ko Kalaisi?”
18For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
18He naʻa ne ʻilo ko e meʻa ʻi he meheka kuo nau tuku atu ai ia.
19And as he was sitting in the place of judgment, his wife sent to him, saying: Have thou nothing to do with that just man; for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
19¶ Pea kuo nofo ia ʻi he nofoʻanga fakamaau, pea fekau ʻe hono uaifi kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa ke kau ʻi ha meʻa ki he tangata māʻoniʻoni na: he naʻaku mamahi lahi he ʻaho ni koeʻuhi ko ia ʻi heʻeku misi.”
20But the chief priests and ancients persuaded the people, that they should ask Barabbas, and make Jesus away.
20Ka naʻe ueʻi ʻae kakai ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e mātuʻa ke nau kole ʻa Palāpasa, kae tāmateʻi ʻa Sisu.
21And the governor answering, said to them: Whether will you of the two to be released unto you? But they said, Barabbas.
21Pea lea ʻae pule, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko hai ʻiate kinaua ʻoku mou loto te u ʻoatu kiate kimoutolu?” Pea nau pehē, “Ko Palāpasa.”
22Pilate saith to them: What shall I do then with Jesus that is called Christ? They say all: Let him be crucified.
22Pea pehē ʻe Pailato kiate kinautolu, “Pea ko e hā te u fai kia Sisu ʻaia ʻoku ui ko Kalaisi?” Pea nau pehē kotoa pē, “Tuku ia ke tutuki ki he ʻakau.”
23The governor said to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying: Let him be crucified.
23Pea pehē ʻe he pule, “He ko e hā, ko e hā ha kovi kuo ne fai?” Ka naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻenau kalanga, ʻo pehē, “Tuku ia ke tutuki ki he ʻakau.”
24And Pilate seeing that he prevailed nothing, but that rather a tumult was made; taking water washed his hands before the people, saying: I am innocent of the blood of this just man; look you to it.
24¶ Pea ʻi he ʻilo ʻe Pailato ʻoku ʻikai siʻi felave ʻene lea, kae tupu pe ʻae maveuveu, naʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae vai, ʻo fanofano hono nima ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ou maʻa au ʻi he toto ʻoe tangata angatonu ni: mou vakai ki ai .”
25And the whole people answering, said: His blood be upon us and our children.
25Pea lea ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Ke ʻiate kimautolu mo ʻemau fānau hono toto.”
26Then he released to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him unto them to be crucified.
26¶ Pea toki tukuange ai ʻe ia ʻa Palāpasa kiate kinautolu; pea hili ʻene kauʻimaea ʻa Sisu, naʻa ne tukuange ia ke tutuki ki he ʻakau.
27Then the soldiers of the governor taking Jesus into the hall, gathered together unto him the whole band;
27Pea toki ʻave ʻa Sisu ʻe he kau tau ʻoe pule ki he fale lahi, pea fakataha kiate ia ʻae kautau kotoa.
28And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak about him.
28Pea nau toʻo hono kofu, ʻo ʻai kiate ia ʻae pulupulu kulaʻahoʻaho.
29And platting a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand. And bowing the knee before him, they mocked him, saying: Hail, king of the Jews.
29¶ Pea hili ʻenau lalanga ʻae tatā ʻaki ʻae ʻakau talatala, naʻa nau ʻai ia ki hono fofonga, mo e vaʻa kaho ʻi hono nima toʻomataʻu: pea nau tūʻulutui ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo manukiʻi ia, ʻo pehē, “Siʻotoʻofa, Tuʻi ʻoe kakai, Siu!”
30And spitting upon him, they took the reed, and struck his head.
30Pea nau ʻaʻanu kiate ia, ʻo toʻo ʻae vaʻa kaho, ʻo taaʻi ʻaki hono fofonga.
31And after they had mocked him, they took off the cloak from him, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify him.
31Pea hili ʻenau manukiʻi ia, naʻa nau toʻo ʻae pulupulu meiate ia, kae toe ʻai hono kofu ʻoʻona kiate ia, ʻo taki atu ke tutuki ki he ʻakau.
32And going out, they found a man of Cyrene, named Simon: him they forced to take up his cross.
32Pea ʻi heʻenau hū kituaʻā, naʻa nau ʻilo ai ʻae tangata Sailine, ko Saimone hono hingoa: pea nau puleʻi ia ke ne fua hono ʻakau.
33And they came to the place that is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.
33¶ Pea kuo nau hoko ki he potu naʻe ui ko Kolokota, ko hono ʻuhinga, “ko e potu ʻoe ʻulupoko.”
34And they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall. And when he had tasted, he would not drink.
34Naʻa nau ʻoatu kiate ia ʻae vai mahi kuo huʻi ʻaki ʻae ʻahu ke ne inu: pea naʻa ne kamata ia , kae ʻikai te ne inu.
35And after they had crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: They divided my garments among them; and upon my vesture they cast lots.
35Pea naʻa nau tutuki ia ki he ʻakau, pea nau vahevahe hono ngaahi kofu ʻi he talotalo: koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ʻaia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe he palōfita, “Naʻa nau tufa hoku ngaahi kofu kiate kinautolu, mo nau talotalo ki hoku kofutuʻa.”
36And they sat and watched him.
36Pea nau nofo ki lalo, ʻo leʻohi ia;
37And they put over his head his cause written: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
37Pea naʻa nau ʻai ʻi ʻolunga ʻi hono fofonga hono talakoviʻi kuo tohi, KO SISU ENI KO E TUʻI ʻOE KAKAI SIU.
38Then were crucified with him two thieves: one on the right hand, and one on the left.
38Pea naʻe tutuki ki he ʻakau fakataha mo ia ʻae ongo kaihaʻa ʻe toko ua, ko e taha ki hono nima toʻomataʻu, mo e taha ki hono toʻohema.
39And they that passed by, blasphemed him, wagging their heads,
39¶ Pea naʻe manukiʻi ia ʻekinautolu naʻe feʻaluʻaki ai, mo kalokalo honau ʻulu,
40And saying: Vah, thou that destroyest the temple of God, and in three days dost rebuild it: save thy own self: if thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
40ʻonau pehē, “ʻA koe ʻoku ke fakaʻauha ʻae falelotu lahi, mo toe langa ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu, fakamoʻui koe. Kapau ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻalu hifo mei he ʻakau.”
41In like manner also the chief priests, with the scribes and ancients, mocking, said:
41Pea manukiʻi foki ia ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau tangata tohi, mo e mātuʻa, ʻonau pehē,
42He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
42“Naʻa ne fakamoʻui ʻae niʻihi; ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne faʻa fakamoʻui ia. Kapau ko e Tuʻi ia ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻoku lelei ke ʻalu hifo ia mei he ʻakau, pea te tau tui kiate ia.
43He trusted in God; let him now deliver him if he will have him; for he said: I am the Son of God.
43Naʻe falala ia ki he ʻOtua; ʻoku lelei ke ne fakamoʻui ni ia, ʻo kapau ʻoku ne ʻofa kiate ia: he naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ‘Ko e ʻAlo au ʻoe ʻOtua.’”
44And the selfsame thing the thieves also, that were crucified with him, reproached him with.
44Pea ko e ongo kaihaʻa, naʻe tutuki ki he ʻakau mo ia, naʻe pehē foki ʻena manukiʻi ia.
45Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over the whole earth, until the ninth hour.
45Pea naʻe fakapoʻuli ʻae fonua kotoa, mei hono ono ʻoe feituʻulaʻā ʻo aʻu ki hono hiva ʻoe feituʻulaʻā.
46And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying: Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
46Pea hokosia hono hiva ʻoe feituʻulaʻā, pea tangi leʻo lahi ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē, “ʻIlai, ʻIlai, lama sapakatani?” Ko hono ʻuhinga, “Ko hoku ʻOtua, ko hoku ʻOtua, ko e hā kuo ke liʻaki ai au?”
47And some that stood there and heard, said: This man calleth Elias.
47Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻae niʻihi naʻe tutuʻu ʻi ai, naʻa nau pehē, “ʻOku ui ʻae tangata ni kia ʻIlaisiā.”
48And immediately one of them running took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar; and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
48Pea lele leva honau tokotaha, ke toʻo mai ʻae oma, ʻo fakapito ia ʻi he vai mahi, ʻo ne ʻai ia ki he vaʻa kaho, pea ʻohake ke ne inu.
49And the others said: Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to deliver him.
49Ka naʻe pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Tuku ai pe, ka tau vakai pe haʻu ai ʻa ʻIlaisiā ke fakamoʻui ia.”
50And Jesus again crying with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
50¶ Pea kuo hili ʻae toe tangi leʻo lahi ʻa Sisu, naʻa ne tuku hake hono laumālie.
51And behold the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top even to the bottom, and the earth quaked, and the rocks were rent.
51Pea vakai, kuo mavaeua leva ʻae puipui ʻoe falelotu lahi, mei he potu ʻi ʻolunga ʻo aʻu ki lalo; pea ngalulu ʻae fonua, pea mafahifahi ʻae ngaahi maka;
52And the graves were opened: and many bodies of the saints that had slept arose,
52Pea matoʻo ʻae ngaahi tanuʻanga; pea tuʻu hake ʻae sino ʻoe kau māʻoniʻoni niʻihi naʻe mohe,
53And coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, came into the holy city, and appeared to many.
53ʻO nau haʻu mei honau ngaahi tanuʻanga ʻi he hili ʻene toetuʻu, ʻo ʻalu ki he kolo tapu, ʻo fakahā ʻakinautolu ki he tokolahi.
54Now the centurion and they that were with him watching Jesus, having seen the earthquake, and the things that were done, were sore afraid, saying: Indeed this was the Son of God.
54Pea kuo mamata ʻae ʻeikitau, mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia, ke leʻohi ʻa Sisu, ki he mofuike, mo e ngaahi meʻa ko ia naʻe fai, naʻa nau ilifia lahi, ʻonau pehē, “tā ko e moʻoni ko e ʻalo ʻeni ʻoe ʻOtua.”
55And there were there many women afar off, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:
55Pea naʻe ai ʻae kau fefine tokolahi, naʻe tutuʻu mei he mamaʻo ʻo vakai, naʻa nau muimui ʻia Sisu mei Kaleli, ʻonau tauhi ia:
56Among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
56Ko honau niʻihi ko Mele Makitaline, mo Mele ko e faʻē ʻa Semisi mo Sose, mo e faʻē ʻae fānau ʻa Sepeti.
57And when it was evening, there came a certain rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus.
57Pea hokosia ʻae efiafi, pea haʻu ʻae tangata koloaʻia mei ʻAlematea, ko Siosefa hono hingoa, ko e ākonga foki ia ʻa Sisu:
58He went to Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded that the body should be delivered.
58Pea naʻe ʻalu ia kia Pailato ʻo ne kole ʻae sino ʻo Sisu. Pea toki fekau ai ʻe Pailato ke ʻoatu ʻae sino.
59And Joseph taking the body, wrapped it up in a clean linen cloth.
59Pea kuo maʻu ʻe Siosefa ʻae sino, naʻa ne fakakoloa ʻaki ia ʻae tupenu mahuʻinga mo maʻa,
60And laid it in his own new monument, which he had hewed out in a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the monument, and went his way.
60ʻO ne fakatokoto ia ʻi hono fonualoto foʻou, ʻaia naʻa ne tā ʻi he loto maka: pea filifilihi ʻe ia ʻae maka lahi ki he matapā ʻoe fonualoto, pea toki ʻalu ia.
61And there was there Mary Magdalen, and the other Mary sitting over against the sepulchre.
61Pea naʻe nonofo ai, ʻo hangatonu mai ki he fonualoto, ʻa Mele Makitaline, pea mo e Mele ʻe taha.
62And the next day, which followed the day of preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,
62¶ Pea ʻi he pongipongi, ʻaia naʻe feholoi mo e ʻaho teuteu, naʻe haʻu fakataha kia Pailato ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau Fālesi,
63Saying: Sir, we have remembered, that that seducer said, while he was yet alive: After three days I will rise again.
63ʻonau pehē, “ʻEiki, ʻoku mau manatu naʻe lea ʻae kākā na ʻi heʻene kei moʻui, ‘Ka hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu te u toetuʻu hake.’
64Command therefore the sepulchre to be guarded until the third day: lest perhaps his disciples come and steal him away, and say to the people: He is risen from the dead; and the last error shall be worse than the first.
64Ko ia ke ke fekau ke leʻohi maʻu ʻae fonualoto, ʻo hoko ki hono ʻaho tolu, telia naʻa haʻu ʻene kau ākonga ʻi he pō, ʻo kaihaʻasi ia, pea nau tala ki he kakai, ‘Kuo toetuʻu ia mei he mate: pea ʻe kovi lahi ai ʻae kākā ki mui ni ʻi he ʻuluaki.’
65Pilate saith to them: You have a guard; go, guard it as you know.
65Pea pehē ʻe Pailato kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ai hoʻomou kau leʻo: mou ō, ʻo faʻiteliha ki hono ngaohi ke maʻu.”
66And they departing, made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting guards.
66Pea naʻa nau ʻalu, ʻo ngaohi ke maʻu ʻae fonualoto, ʻo pulusi ʻae maka, pea fakanofo ʻae leʻo.
