Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto him the disciples, and embraced them , and departed for to go into Macedonia.
1Pea ʻi he tuku ʻae maveuveu, naʻe ui ʻe Paula ke haʻu kiate ia ʻae kau ākonga, ʻonau feʻofoʻofani pea mahuʻi ia ke ʻalu ki Masitōnia.
2And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece,
2Pea kuo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi potu ko ia ʻi heʻene ʻalu, pea lahi ʻene akonaki kiate kinautolu, pea ʻalu ia ki Kilisi.
3And there abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia.
3ʻO nofo ai ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu. Pea kuo toitoiʻi ia ʻe he kakai Siu, ʻi heʻene te u folau ki Silia, pea loto ia ke toe foki ange ki Masitōnia.
4And there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
4Pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ki ʻEsia ʻa Sopeta mei Pelea; mo ʻAlisitako mo Sekunio mei Tesalonika; mo Keio mei Teape, mo Timote; mo Tikiko mo Talofimo mei ʻEsia;
5These going before tarried for us at Troas.
5Pea naʻe muʻomuʻa ʻakinautolu ni, ʻo tatali mai kiate kimautolu ʻi Taloasi.
6And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days.
6Pea naʻa mau folau mei Filipai, ʻi he hili ʻae ngaahi ʻaho kai mā taʻemeʻafakatupu, pea mau aʻu atu kiate kinautolu ʻi Taloasi ʻi he ʻaho ʻe nima; pea naʻa mau nofo ai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu.
7And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
7Pea ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe uike, naʻe kātoa ai ʻae kau ākonga ke tofitofi mā, pea malanga ʻa Paula kiate kinautolu, kuo ʻamanaki ʻalu ia ʻi he ʻapongipongi; pea malanga ia ʻo aʻu ki he tuʻuapō mālie.
8And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.
8Pea naʻe lahi ʻae maama ʻi he potu fale ki ʻolunga, kuo nau fakataha ai.
9And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.
9Pea naʻe heka ʻi he kātupa ʻae talavou ʻe tokotaha, ko hono hingoa ko ʻUtiko, pea naʻe mohe maʻu ia: pea ʻi he malanga fuoloa ʻa Paula, naʻe hinga hifo ia ʻi he mohe, pea tō ki lalo mei hono tolu ʻoe fata ʻoe fale, pea hiki hake ia kuo mate.
10And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.
10Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Paula, ʻo foʻohifo ʻiate ia, mo fāʻufua, mo ne pehē, “ʻOua te mou mamahi; he ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻa ʻene moʻui.”
11When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.
11Pea kuo ʻalu hake ia ʻo tofitofi ʻae mā, mo kai, pea nau talanoa ʻo fuoloa, ʻo aʻu ki he maʻa ʻae ʻaho, pea toki ʻalu ia.
12And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.
12Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae talavou kuo moʻui, pea naʻe lahi ʻenau fiemālie.
13¶ And we went before to ship, and sailed unto Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so had he appointed, minding himself to go afoot.
13¶ Pea ne mau muʻomuʻa ki he vaka, ʻo folau ki ʻAsosi, ʻo mau tokanga ke fakaheka ai ʻa Paula: ko ʻene fekau ia, he ko hono loto ke hala ʻuta pe ia.
14And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.
14Pea kuo mau fetaulaki ki ʻAsosi, pea mau fakaheka ia, pea ʻalu ki Meteline.
15And we sailed thence, and came the next day over against Chios; and the next day we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogyllium; and the next day we came to Miletus.
15Pea mau folau mei ai, pea pongipongi hake, naʻa mau hoko ʻo feʻunga mo Kaio; pea mau aʻu ki Semo ʻi hono ʻaho ua, pea mau nofo ʻi Talokilio; pea aʻu atu ʻi he ʻaho naʻa na feholoi ki Mileto.
16For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hasted, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.
16He kuo pau ʻae loto ʻo Paula ke ʻoua naʻa folau ki ʻEfesō, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fuoloa ai ia ki ʻEsia: he naʻa ne fakatoʻotoʻo, ʻo kapau ʻe mafai ʻe ia, ke hoko ki Selūsalema ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe Penitekosi.
17¶ And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.
17¶ Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ia mei Mileto ke haʻu ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoe siasi mei ʻEfesō.
18And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons,
18Pea kuo nau haʻu kiate ia, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Talu ʻae ʻuluaki ʻaho ne u haʻu ai ki ʻEsia, kuo mou ʻilo ia ʻae anga ʻo ʻeku nofo ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē,
19Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:
19ʻA ʻeku tauhi ʻae ʻEiki ʻi he loto angavaivai lahi, mo e loʻimata lahi, mo e ngaahi ʻahiʻahi, naʻe tō kiate au ʻi he toitoiʻi au ʻe he kakai Siu:
20And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you , but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house,
20Mo ʻeku taʻetaʻofi ki ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ʻaonga, ka kuo u fakaʻilo kiate kimoutolu, mo ako fakahā kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻi he ngaahi fale,
21Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
21ʻO fakapapau atu ki he kakai Siu, pea mo e kakai Kiliki foki, ʻae fakatomala ki he ʻOtua, mo e tui ki hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
22And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
22Pea ko eni, vakai, ʻoku ou ʻalu haʻisia ʻi loto ki Selūsalema, pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko mai ai kiate au:
23Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.
23Ka ko eni, ʻoku fakamoʻoni mai ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻo pehē, ʻoku tatali pe kiate au ʻae ngaahi haʻi mo e meʻa fakamamahi ʻi he kolo kotoa pē.
24But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
24Ka ʻoku ʻikai ueʻi ai au, pea ʻoku ʻikai foki te u lau ko e meʻa mahuʻinga kiate au ʻeku moʻui, kae kehe ke u fakaʻosi ʻi he fiefia ʻeku lakanga, mo e ngāue kuo u maʻu mei he ʻEiki ko Sisu, ke u fakamoʻoni ki he ongoongolelei ʻoe ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua.
25And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
25“Pea ko eni, vakai, ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻe ʻikai te mou toe mamata ki hoku mata, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē kuo u malangaʻaki ki ai ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.
26Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men .
26Ko ia ʻoku ou fakapapau fakamoʻomoʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu he ʻaho ni, ʻoku ou maʻa au mei he toto ʻoe kakai kotoa pē.
27For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
27He naʻe ʻikai te u taʻofi ʻae fakahā kiate kimoutolu ʻae finangalo kotoa pē ʻoe ʻOtua.
28¶ Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
28Ko ia ke mou vakai kiate kimoutolu, pea mo e fanga sipi kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo fakanofo ʻakimoutolu ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni ko hono kau tauhi, ke mou fafanga ʻae siasi ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatauʻaki hono taʻataʻa.
29For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
29He ʻoku ou ʻilo eni, ka hili ʻeku ʻalu, ʻe haʻu kiate kimoutolu ʻae fanga ulofi fakamālohi, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau mamae ki he fanga sipi.
30Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
30Pea ʻe tupu foki ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae kau tangata, te nau ako ʻaki ʻae meʻa fakahala, ke tohoaki ʻae kau ākonga ke muimui kiate kinautolu.
31Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
31Ko ia ke mou leʻo, pea manatu kuo tolu taʻu mo e ʻikai te u tuku ʻeku valokiekina ʻakimoutolu taki taha mo e loʻimata ʻi he pō mo e ʻaho.
32And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
32“Pea ko eni, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ou tuku ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻOtua, pea mo e folofola ʻo ʻene ʻofa, ʻaia ʻoku ne faʻa fai ke langa hake ʻakimoutolu, pea ke tuku kiate kimoutolu ʻae tofiʻa fakataha mo kinautolu kotoa pē kuo fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi.
33I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.
33Naʻe ʻikai te u manumanu ki he siliva, pe ki he koula, pe ki he kofu ʻo ha tokotaha.
34Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me.
34ʻIo, ʻoku mou ʻilo ʻekimoutolu, ko e ongo nima ni kuo na tauhi ki heʻeku ngaahi masiva, pea mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate au.
35I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
35Kuo u fakahā ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ʻi he peheʻi ʻa hoʻomou ngāue, ʻoku totonu ke mou tokoni ki he vaivai, pea manatuʻi ʻae lea ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu, ʻi heʻene pehē, ‘ʻOku monūʻia lahi hake ʻae foaki atu ʻi he maʻu ʻae foaki mai .’”
36¶ And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.
36¶ Pea kuo ʻosi ʻene lea ko ia, naʻa ne tuʻulutui, ʻo hūfia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
37And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul’s neck, and kissed him,
37Pea naʻa nau tangi mamahi kotoa pē, mo nau fāʻufua ʻi he kia ʻo Paula, ʻo ʻuma kiate ia,
38Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him unto the ship.
38ʻO lahi taha pe ʻenau mamahi koeʻuhi ko ʻene lea naʻe pehē, ʻe ʻikai te nau toe mamata ki hono mata. Pea naʻa nau ō mo ia ki he vaka.
