King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
1Ko ia, ʻe kāinga ʻofeina, ʻi heʻetau maʻu ʻae ngaahi talaʻofa ni, ke tau fakamaʻa ʻakitautolu mei he ʻuli kotoa pē ʻoe kakano mo e laumālie, ʻo fakahaohaoa ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻi he manavahē ki he ʻOtua.
2Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.
2Mou maʻu ʻakimautolu; naʻe ʻikai te mau fai taʻetotonu ki ha tokotaha, naʻe ʻikai te mau fakaangahalaʻi ha tokotaha, naʻe ʻikai te mau kākaaʻi ha tokotaha.
3I speak not this to condemn you : for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you .
3ʻOku ʻikai te u lea ko ha tautea: he kuo ʻosi ʻeku tala atu, ʻoku mou ʻi homau loto ke mau mate mo moʻui mo kimoutolu.
4Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.
4ʻOku lahi ʻeku faʻa lea atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ou vikiviki lahi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu: kuo fakafonu au ʻi he fiemālie, ʻoku ou fiefia lahi ʻaupito ʻi heʻemau mamahi kotoa pē.
5For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.
5Koeʻuhi ʻi heʻemau hoko ki Masitōnia, naʻe ʻikai ha mālōlō ki homau kakano, ka naʻe fakamamahi ʻakimautolu mei he potu kotoa pē; naʻe ʻituʻa ʻae ngaahi tau, pea ʻi loto ʻae manavahē.
6Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;
6Ka ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinautolu kuo lī ki lalo, naʻa ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimautolu, ʻi he haʻu ʻa Taitusi;
7And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your fervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.
7Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻi heʻene haʻu pe, ka ʻi he fakafiemālie ʻaia naʻe fakafiemālie ai ia ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻi heʻene tala kiate kimautolu hoʻomou holi lahi, mo hoʻomou mamahi, mo hoʻomou feinga kiate au; ko ia naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻeku fiefia.
8For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.
8He ʻoku ʻikai te u fakatomala ʻi heʻeku fakamamahi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae tohi, ka naʻaku fakatomala ai: he ʻoku ou vakai ko e tohi ko ia, kuo ne fakamamahi ʻakimoutolu, kae fuoloa siʻi pe.
9Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
9Ka ko eni, ʻoku ou fiefia, ʻoku ʻikai ʻi homou fakamamahi, ka ʻi homou mamahi ki he fakatomala: he naʻa mou mamahi ʻo tāau mo e ʻOtua, ke ʻoua naʻa mou masiva ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻiate kimautolu.
10For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
10He ko e mamahi ʻoku taau mo e ʻOtua ʻoku ne langaki ʻae fakatomala ki he fakamoʻui, ʻe ʻikai toe fakatomala ai: ka ko e mamahi fakamaama, ʻoku ne langaki ʻae mate.
11For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
11Vakai eni ki he meʻa ni pe, ʻa hoʻomou mamahi ʻo taau mo e ʻOtua, ki he faʻa fai naʻa ne fakatupu ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻio, ʻae fakaʻataʻatā ʻo kimoutolu, ʻae fakaʻiseʻisa, ʻae manavahē, ʻae holi lahi, ʻio, ʻae fai feinga, ʻa ʻetau tautea! Kuo mou fakahā ʻaki ia kotoa pē ʻa hoʻomou ʻataʻatā ʻi he meʻa ni.
12Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
12Ko ia ne u tohi kiate kimoutolu, ka naʻe ʻikai koeʻuhi ko ia pe naʻe fai ʻae kovi, pe ko ia pe naʻa ne mamahi ʻi he kovi, ka koeʻuhi ke hā ai kiate kimoutolu ʻemau tokanga kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
13Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.
13Ko ia naʻa mau fiemālie ʻi hoʻomou fiemālie: pea naʻe lahi hake ʻaupito ʻemau fiefia koeʻuhi ko e fiefia ʻa Taitusi, he naʻe fakafiemālieʻi hono laumālie ʻekimoutolu kotoa pē.
14For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth.
14He kapau naʻaku polepole ʻi ha meʻa kiate ia koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ʻoku ʻikai te u mā ai; kae hangē ko ʻemau lea kimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, ʻoku pehē pe mo ʻemau polepole ʻi he ʻao ʻo Taitusi, ʻoku ʻilo ia ko e moʻoni.
15And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
15Pea ko ʻene manavaʻofa ʻoku lahi hake ʻaupito kiate kimoutolu, ʻi heʻene manatu ki he talangofua ʻamoutolu kotoa pē, pea mo hoʻomou maʻu ia ʻi he manavahē mo e tetetete.
16I rejoice therefore that I have confidence in you in all things.
16Pea ʻoku ou fiefia ʻi heʻeku falala kiate kimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē.
