King James Version with Apocrypha
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
1Ko eni, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ou kole ai kiate kimoutolu, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ongongofua ʻae ʻOtua, ke mou ʻatu homou sino ko e feilaulau moʻui, mo māʻoniʻoni, mo lelei ki he ʻOtua, ʻaia ko e ngāue ʻoku taau mo kimoutolu ke fai.
2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
2Pea ʻoua naʻa fakatatau ʻakimoutolu ki he māmani: ka ke mātuʻaki liliu ʻakimoutolu ʻi he fakafoʻou ʻo homou ʻatamai, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo pau ʻae finangalo ko ia ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻa hono lelei, mo hono ʻaonga, mo hono haohaoa.
3For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
3He ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻofa kuo foaki kiate au, ʻoku ou tala atu ai ki he tangata taki taha kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, ke ʻoua naʻa lelei lahi ʻene mahalo kiate ia he mahalo ʻoku totonu; ka ke mahalo fakapotopoto, ʻo fakatatau ki hono lahi ʻoe tui kuo vaheʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ki he tangata taki taha.
4For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
4He ʻoku hangē ʻoku ʻi hotau sino pe taha ʻae ngaahi kupu lahi, ka ʻoku ʻikai fai ʻae ngāue tatau pē ʻe he kupu kotoa pē:
5So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
5ʻOku pehē foki ʻakitautolu, ko e tokolahi, ka ko e sino pe taha ʻia Kalaisi, pea ʻoku tau feʻaongaʻaki fakataha ʻae kupu kotoa pē.
6Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
6Ko ia ʻi heʻetau maʻu ʻae ngaahi foaki ʻoku fai kehekehe, ʻo taau mo e ʻofa kuo foaki kiate kitautolu, kapau ko e kikite, tau fai ia ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻoe tui;
7Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
7Pe ko e tauhi, tau fai ʻae tauhi: pe ko ia ʻoku akonaki, ke fai ʻene akonaki;
8Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
8Pe ko ia ʻoku ekinaki, ke ne ekinaki: ko ia ʻoku foaki, ke fai ia ʻo angatonu; ko ia ʻoku pule, ke faʻa fai ia ; ko ia ʻoku fai ʻofa, ke fai ʻi he fiefie fai.
9Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
9Ke taʻemalualoi ʻae ʻofa. Fehiʻa ki he meʻa ʻoku kovi; piki maʻu ki he meʻa ʻoku lelei.
10Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
10Ke mou feʻofaʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻofa fakakāinga; ʻo mou felotoleleiʻaki ʻi he fefakaʻapaʻapaʻaki kiate kimoutolu;
11Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
11ʻOua naʻa fakapikopiko ʻi he ngāue: ka mou loto vela; ʻo tauhi ki he ʻEiki;
12Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
12ʻO fiefia ʻi he ʻamanaki lelei; pea faʻa kātaki ʻi he mamahi; pea fai maʻu ʻo fakakukafi ʻi he lotu;
13Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.
13Tufaki ki he masiva ʻoe kāinga māʻoniʻoni; tuli ki he angaʻofa.
14Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
14Tāpuaki ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakatanga kimoutolu: tāpuakiʻi, pea ʻoua naʻa kapea.
15Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
15Fiefia mo kinautolu ʻoku fiefia, pea tangi mo kinautolu ʻoku tangi.
16Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.
16Ke felototahaʻaki ʻakimoutolu. ʻOua naʻa tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa māʻolunga, kae tataki ʻakimoutolu ki he ngaahi meʻa māʻulalo. Pea ʻoua naʻa mou fiepoto ʻiate kimoutolu.
17Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
17ʻOua naʻa totongi ʻae kovi ʻaki ʻae kovi ki ha taha. Fifili ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku lelei ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē.
18If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
18Pea kapau ʻe faʻa lavaʻi, mou moʻui melino pē mo e kakai kotoa pē.
19Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
19ʻAe kāinga ʻofeina, ʻoua naʻa mou fai ʻae totongi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ka mou fakaʻataʻatā ki he houhau: he kuo tohi, “ʻOku ʻaʻaku ʻae totongi; ʻoku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki,” te u totongi pē ʻeau.
20Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
20Ko ia, “Kapau ʻoku fiekaia ho fili, fafanga ia; kapau ʻoku fieinu, ʻatu ha inu kiate ia: koeʻuhi ʻi hoʻo fai pehē, te ke fokotuʻu ʻae malalaʻi afi ki hono ʻulu.”
21Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
21ʻOua naʻa ikuna koe ʻe he kovi, kae ikuna ʻae kovi ʻaki ʻae lelei.
