King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work,
1Fakamanatuʻi ʻakinautolu ke nau anganofo ki he ngaahi tuʻi mo e kau pule, ke nau talangofua ki he kau fakamaau, ke tali teu pe ki he ngaahi ngaue lelei kotoa pē;
2To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.
2Ke ʻoua naʻa lauʻikovi ha tokotaha, ʻoua naʻa fakakikihi, kae angavaivai, ʻo fakahā ʻae angamalū kotoa pē ki he kakai kotoa pē.
3For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
3He ko kitautolu foki naʻa tau vale ʻi muʻa, ʻo talangataʻa, mo kākāʻia, pea moʻua ki he ngaahi holi kovi mo e ngaahi meʻa fakamālie kehekehe, ʻo moʻui ʻi he fasituʻu mo e meheka, ko e fehiʻanekina mo e fetāufehiʻaʻaki.
4But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,
4Kae hili hono fakahā mai ʻae angalelei mo e ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, ko hotau Fakamoʻui, ki he tangata,
5Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
5Naʻe ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi ngaue ʻoe māʻoniʻoni naʻa tau fai, kae fakatatau mo ʻene ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pe, kuo ne fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu, ʻi he fufulu ʻoe fakatupu foʻou, mo e fakafoʻou ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni;
6Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
6ʻAia naʻa ne lilingi ʻo lahi ʻaupito kiate kitautolu ia Sisu Kalaisi, ko hotau Fakamoʻui;
7That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
7Koeʻuhi ʻi he fakatonuhia ʻakitautolu ʻi heʻene ʻofa, ʻe ngaohi ai ʻakitautolu ko e fānau hoko, ʻo taau mo e ʻamanaki lelei, ki he moʻui taʻengata.
8This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
8Ko e tala moʻoni eni, pea ko hoku loto ke ke fakapapau maʻuaipē ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, koeʻuhi ko kinautolu kuo tui ki he ʻOtua, ke nau loto tokanga ke fai ʻae ngaahi ngaue lelei. ʻOku lelei mo ʻaonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ki he kakai.
9But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
9Ka ke tekeʻi ʻae ngaahi fehuʻi launoa, mo e tala hohoko, mo e fakakikihi, mo e ngaahi fekeʻikeʻi ʻi he fono; he ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ia mo vaʻinga.
10A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;
10Ko e tangata fakatupu mavahevahe, hili ʻa hono akonakiʻi ʻo liunga taha mo liunga ua, tukuange ia;
11Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.
11ʻI he ʻilo ko ia ʻoku pehē, kuo fakahē ia, pea ʻoku fai angahala, pea kuo tukuakiʻi ia ʻiate ia pe.
12When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter.
12ʻO kau ka fekau atu ʻa ʻAtima kiate koe, pe ko Tikiko, ke ke ʻahiʻahi ke ke fakatoʻotoʻo ke haʻu kiate au ʻi Nikopoli: he kuopau pe hoku loto ke nofo ki ai ʻi he faʻahitaʻu momoko.
13Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them.
13Ke ke tokoni lelei pe kia Senasi ko e akonaki ʻi he fono, mo ʻApolosi, ʻi hona fononga, ke ʻoua te na masiva ʻi ha meʻa.
14And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful.
14Pea ke ʻilo ʻekinautolu ʻoku ʻotautolu foki, ke fai ʻae ngaahi ngaue lelei, ke maʻu ai ʻaia ʻoku ʻaonga, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa taʻefua ai ʻakinautolu.
15All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
15Ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate au, ʻoku nau ʻofa atu kiate koe. ʻOfa atu kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻofa kiate kitautolu ʻi he tui. Ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae ʻaloʻofa. ʻEmeni.
