Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1There was a certain man in Cæsarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band ,
1Pea naʻe ʻi Sesalia ʻae tangata ʻe tokotaha ko Koniliusi hono hingoa, ko e ʻeikitau ʻoe kau tau naʻe ui “ Ko e kau Tau ʻItali.”
2A devout man , and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.
2Ko e faʻa lotu ia, pea manavahē ki he ʻOtua, ʻaia mo hono fale kotoa pē, pea naʻe lahi ʻene foaki ki he kakai, mo ne hū maʻuaipē ki he ʻOtua.
3He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.
3Pea mamata pau ʻe ia ʻi ha meʻa hā mai, ʻi hono hiva nai ʻoe feituʻulaʻā ʻoe ʻaho, ki ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua ʻoku haʻu kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Koniliusi.”
4And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.
4Pea kuo vakai ia ki ai, pea manavahē ia, mo pehē, “Ko e hā ia, ʻEiki?” Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Kuo aʻu hake hoʻo ngaahi hū mo hoʻo faʻa foaki, ko e meʻa fakamanatu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
5And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:
5Pea ke fekau leva ha kau tangata ki Sopa, ke ʻomi ʻa Saimone, ko hono hingoa ʻe taha ko Pita:
6He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.
6ʻOku nofo ia mo Saimone ko e tufunga ngaohi kiliʻi manu, ʻoku tuʻu hono fale ʻi he matātahi: pea te ne tala kiate koe ʻae meʻa totonu ke ke fai.”
7And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;
7Pea kuo ʻalu ʻae ʻāngelo naʻe lea kia Koniliusi, pea ui ia ki he toko ua ʻi heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e tangata tau ʻoku lotu, meiate kinautolu naʻe tali fekau kiate ia;
8And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.
8Pea kuo ne fakahā eni kotoa pē kiate kinautolu, pea ne fekau ʻakinautolu ki Sopa.
9¶ On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:
9¶ Pea pongipongi ai, ʻi heʻenau fononga atu, ʻo ofi ki he kolo, kuo ʻalu hake ʻa Pita ki he tuʻa fale ke lotu, ʻi hono ono nai ʻoe feituʻulaʻā:
10And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,
10Pea naʻe lahi ʻene fiekaia, pea holi ia ke kai; kae lolotonga ʻenau teu ia, naʻe ʻāvea hono loto,
11And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
11Pea mamata ia kuo matangaki ʻae langi, pea tuku hifo kiate ia ha meʻa ʻo hangē ha fuʻu tupenu, kuo fakakaveʻi ʻi hono kapa ʻe fā, pea tukutukuhifo ia ki he kelekele:
12Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
12Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fanga manu veʻe fā ʻoe fonua, mo e manu fekai, mo e manu totolo, mo e manu ʻoe ʻatā.
13And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
13Pea naʻe ongo mai ʻae leʻo kiate ia, ʻo pehē , “Tuʻu hake, Pita; ʻo tāmateʻi mo kai.”
14But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.
14Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Pita, “ʻEiki, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito; he ʻoku teʻeki ai te u kai ha meʻa ʻoku ʻikai ngofua pe taʻemaʻa.”
15And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
15Pea naʻe toe ongo mai ʻae leʻo kiate ia ko hono tuʻo ua, “Ko ia kuo fakamaʻa ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke pehē ʻoku ʻikai ngofua.”
16This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
16Pea naʻe fai ʻae meʻa ni ʻo tuʻo tolu: pea toe fusi hake ʻae tupenu ki he langi.
17Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate,
17Pea lolotonga ʻae fifili ʻa Pita ʻi hono loto pe ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe meʻa kuo ne mamata ai, ʻiloange, kuo tutuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻae kau tangata fekau ʻa Koniliusi, kuo nau fehuʻi ki he fale ʻo Saimone,
18And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
18“Pea naʻa nau ui, ʻo fehuʻi pe ʻoku nofo ai ʻa Saimone, ʻoku hingoa ko Pita.”
19¶ While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.
19¶ Pea lolotonga ʻae fifili ʻa Pita ki he meʻa kuo hā mai, pea pehē ʻe he Laumālie kiate ia, “Vakai, ʻoku kumi koe ʻe he kau tangata ʻe toko tolu.
20Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
20Ko ia ke ke tuʻu, ʻo ʻalu hifo, pea mou ō mo kinautolu, pea ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē: he kuo u fekau ʻakinautolu.”
21Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?
21Pea toki ʻalu hifo ʻa Pita ki he kau tangata kuo fekau mai ʻe Koniliusi kiate ia; ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai, ko au eni ʻoku mou kumi: pea ko e hā ʻae meʻa ʻoku mou haʻu ai?”
22And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
22Pea nau pehē, “Ko Koniliusi ko e ʻEikitau, ko e tangata angatonu, pea manavahē ki he ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ongoongolelei ia ʻi he kakai Siu kotoa pē, naʻe valoki ia ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi ha ʻāngelo māʻoniʻoni, ke ne fekau kiate koe ke ke ʻalu ki hono fale, ke ne fanongo ki ha ngaahi lea ʻiate koe.”
23Then called he them in, and lodged them . And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.
23Pea naʻa ne toki ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki fale, ke nau nonofo. Pea pongipongi ai, naʻe ʻalu ʻa Pita mo kinautolu, pea naʻa nau ō mo e kāinga niʻihi mei Sopa.
24And the morrow after they entered into Cæsarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.
24Pea ʻi he ʻaho naʻe feholoi, naʻa nau hoko ki Sesalia. Pea tatali ʻa Koniliusi kiate kinautolu, pea kuo ne fakataha hono ngaahi kāinga mo e kaungāʻapi.
25And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him .
25Pea ʻi he hū atu ʻa Pita, naʻe fakafetaulaki mai kiate ia ʻa Koniliusi, pea tō ki lalo ʻi hono vaʻe, ʻo ne hū.
26But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
26Ka naʻe fokotuʻu hake ia ʻe Pita, mo pehē ʻe ia, “Tuʻu hake; he ko e tangata pe foki au.”
27And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
27Pea naʻe kei lea ia kiate ia, pea hū ki fale , pea ʻilo ʻe ia ʻae tokolahi kuo fakataha.
28And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
28Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou ʻilo ko e meʻa ʻoku ʻikai ngofua ʻi he tangata Siu ke fakataha mo e tangata mei he puleʻanga kehe, pe ʻalu ki ai; ka kuo fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua kiate au, ke ʻoua naʻaku ui ko e taʻetapu pe taʻemaʻa ha tangata ʻe tokotaha.
29Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
29Ko ia naʻaku haʻu ai, ʻo ʻikai teu paongataʻa ʻi he fekau mai kiate au: pea ko eni, ʻoku ou fehuʻi pe ko e hā ai kuo mou fekau mai kiate au?”
30And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
30Pea pehē ʻe Koniliusi, “Ko e ʻaho ʻe fā kuo hili ange, naʻaku ʻaukai ʻo hoko ki he feituʻulaʻā ni; pea ʻi hono hiva ʻoe feituʻulaʻā naʻaku lotu ʻi hoku fale, pea mo ʻene tuʻu ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae tangata ʻoku kofu fetapatapaki,
31And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
31ʻO ne pehē mai, ‘Koniliusi, kuo ongo hoʻo hū, pea ʻoku manatuʻi ʻe he ʻOtua hoʻo faʻa foaki.
32Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.
32Ko ia ke ke fekau ai ki Sopa ʻo ʻomi ki heni ʻa Saimone, ʻoku hingoa ko Pita; ʻoku nofo ia ʻi he fale ʻo Saimone ko e tufunga ngaohi kiliʻi manu ʻi he matātahi: pea ka haʻu, ʻe lea ia kiate koe.’
33Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
33Ko ia ne u fekau atu ai leva kiate koe; pea ko e meʻa lelei hoʻo haʻu. Pea ko eni, kuo mau fakataha kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, ke fanongo ki he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku fekau ʻe he ʻOtua kiate koe.”
34¶ Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
34Pea toki mafaʻa ʻae ngutu ʻo Pita, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou ʻilo ni ʻoku ʻikai filifilimānako ʻae ʻOtua ki he kakai:
35But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
35Ka ʻoku ne maʻu maʻana ʻaia ʻoku manavahē kiate ia, mo fai totonu, ʻi he puleʻanga kotoa pē.
36The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
36Ko e akonaki eni naʻe tuku ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e malangaʻaki ʻae melino ia Sisu Kalaisi: (ko e ʻEiki ia ʻoe meʻa kotoa pē:)
37That word, I say , ye know, which was published throughout all Judæa, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
37Pea ko e ongoongo ko ia ʻoku mou ʻiloʻi, ʻaia naʻe fanongonongo ʻi Siutea kotoa pē, ʻo kamata ʻi Kāleli, ʻi he hili ʻae papitaiso naʻe malangaʻaki ʻe Sione;
38How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
38Koeʻuhi ko e fakanofo ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti ʻaki ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni mo e mālohi: ʻaia naʻe faʻa feʻaluʻaki ʻo fai lelei, mo ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fakamālohiʻi ʻe he tēvolo; he naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae ʻOtua.
39And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
39Pea ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimautolu ʻoe meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ʻi he fonua ʻoe kakai Siu, pea ʻi Selūsalema; ko ia ia foki naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻi he tautau ʻi he ʻakau:
40Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;
40Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi hono ʻaho tolu, ʻo fakahā lahi ia;
41Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
41Ka naʻe ʻikai ki he kakai kotoa pē, ka ki he fakamoʻoni naʻe tomuʻa fili ʻe he ʻOtua, kiate kimautolu, naʻa mau kai mo inu mo ia, ʻi he hili ʻene toetuʻu mei he mate.
42And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
42Pea naʻa ne fekau kiate kimautolu ke mau malanga ki he kakai, mo fakamoʻoni ko ia ia kuo fakanofo ʻe he ʻOtua ko e Fakamaau ki he moʻui mo e mate.
43To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.
43Pea ʻoku fakamoʻoni kiate ia ʻae kau palōfita kotoa pē, ko ia fulipē ʻe tui kiate ia, ʻe maʻu ʻae fakamolemole ʻoe angahala ʻi hono huafa.”
44¶ While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
44¶ Pea ʻi he kei leaʻaki ʻe Pita ʻae ngaahi lea ni, ne tō hifo ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni kiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fanongo ki he lea.
45And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
45Pea naʻe ofo ʻakinautolu ʻoe kamu naʻe tui, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe omi mo Pita, koeʻuhi kuo huaʻi hifo ki he Senitaile foki ʻae foaki ʻoe Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.
46For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
46He kuo nau fanongo ki heʻenau leaʻaki ʻae lea kehekehe, mo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua, Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita,
47Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
47“ʻE faʻa taʻofi ʻe ha taha ʻae vai, ke ʻoua naʻa papitaiso ʻakinautolu ni, ka kuo nau maʻu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni ʻo hangē ko kitautolu?”
48And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
48Pea fekau ʻe ia ke nau papitaiso ʻi he huafa ʻae ʻEiki. Pea naʻa nau kole kiate ia ke nofo mo kinautolu ʻi he ʻaho niʻihi.
