Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Et quidam descendentes de Judæa docebant fratres: Quia nisi circumcidamini secundum morem Moysi, non potestis salvari.
1Pea ko e kau tangata niʻihi naʻe ʻalu hifo mei Siutea, ʻo ako ki he kāinga, ʻo pehē , “Kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou kamu, ʻo fakatatau ki he tuʻutuʻuni ʻa Mōsese, ʻe ʻikai te mou faʻa moʻui.”
2Facta ergo seditione non minima Paulo et Barnabæ adversus illos, statuerunt ut ascenderent Paulus et Barnabas, et quidam alii ex aliis ad Apostolos et presbyteros in Jerusalem super hac quæstione.
2Pea kuo fai ʻo lahi ʻae fetauʻaki lea mo e fakakikihi ʻa Paula mo Pānepasa mo kinautolu, pea pau honau loto ke ʻalu hake ki Selūsalema ʻa Paula mo Pānepasa, mo honau niʻihi, ki he kau ʻaposetolo mo e mātuʻa, koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni.
3Illi ergo deducti ab ecclesia pertransibant Phœnicen et Samariam, narrantes conversionem gentium: et faciebant gaudium magnum omnibus fratribus.
3Pea kuo moimoiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he siasi, pea nau ō ʻi Finesi mo Samēlia, ʻonau fakahā ʻae liliu ʻoe Senitaile; pea naʻa nau fakafiefiaʻi ʻo lahi ʻae kāinga kotoa pē.
4Cum autem venissent Jerosolymam, suscepti sunt ab ecclesia, et ab Apostolis et senioribus, annuntiantes quanta Deus fecisset cum illis.
4Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko ki Selūsalema, naʻa nau feʻiloaki mo e siasi mo e kau ʻaposetolo mo e mātuʻa, pea na fakahā kotoa pē ʻae meʻa kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻiate kinaua.
5Surrexerunt autem quidam de hæresi pharisæorum, qui crediderunt, dicentes quia oportet circumcidi eos, præcipere quoque servare legem Moysi.
5Ka naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae niʻihi ʻoku tui ʻi he faʻahinga ʻoe Fālesi, ʻonau pehē, “ʻOku totonu ke kamu ʻakinautolu, mo fekau ke fai ki he fono ʻa Mōsese.”
6Conveneruntque Apostoli et seniores videre de verbo hoc.
6¶ Pea naʻe fakataha ʻae kau ʻaposetolo mo e mātuʻa, ke nau fakakaukau ki he meʻa ni.
7Cum autem magna conquisitio fieret, surgens Petrus dixit ad eos: Viri fratres, vos scitis quoniam ab antiquis diebus Deus in nobis elegit, per os meum audire gentes verbum Evangelii et credere.
7Pea kuo lahi ʻenau alea, pea tuʻu hake ʻa Pita, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻAe kau tangata ko e kāinga, ʻoku mou ʻilo kuo fuoloange ʻae fili ʻe he ʻOtua ʻiate kitautolu, ke fanongo ʻi hoku ngutu ʻe he ngaahi Senitaile ki he lea ʻoe ongoongolelei, pea tui.
8Et qui novit corda Deus, testimonium perhibuit, dans illis Spiritum Sanctum, sicut et nobis,
8Pea ko e ʻOtua ʻaia ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae loto, naʻa ne fakamoʻoni ʻakinautolu, ʻo ne foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻo hangē ko kitautolu;
9et nihil discrevit inter nos et illos, fide purificans corda eorum.
9Pea naʻe ʻikai fai kehekehe kiate kitautolu mo kinautolu, ʻo ne fakamaʻa honau loto ʻi he tui.
10Nunc ergo quid tentatis Deum, imponere jugum super cervices discipulorum quod neque patres nostri, neque nos portare potuimus?
10Pea ko eni, ko e hā ʻoku mou ʻahiʻahi ai ki he ʻOtua, ke ʻai ki he kia ʻoe kau ākonga ʻae haʻamo, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ke faʻa kātakiʻi ʻe heʻetau mātuʻa pē ko kitautolu?
11sed per gratiam Domini Jesu Christi credimus salvari, quemadmodum et illi.
11Ka ʻoku tau pehē, ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻaloʻofa pē ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ʻe moʻui ʻakitautolu, ʻo hangē ko kinautolu.”
12Tacuit autem omnis multitudo: et audiebant Barnabam et Paulum narrantes quanta Deus fecisset signa et prodigia in gentibus per eos.
12¶ Pea naʻe toki fakalongo ʻae fakataha kotoa pē, ke fakafanongo ki he fakamatala ʻa Pānepasa mo Paula, ʻae ngaahi mana mo e meʻa fakaofo kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻiate kinaua ki he ngaahi Senitaile.
13Et postquam tacuerunt, respondit Jacobus, dicens: Viri fratres, audite me.
13¶ Pea ʻi he tuku ʻena fakamatala, naʻe lea ʻa Semisi, ʻo pehē, “ʻAe kau tangata mo e kāinga, fanongo mai kiate au:
14Simon narravit quemadmodum primum Deus visitavit sumere ex gentibus populum nomini suo.
14Kuo fakahā ʻe Saimone ʻae muʻaki ʻaʻahi ʻae ʻOtua ki he kakai Senitaile, ke ne maʻu ʻiate kinautolu ha kakai koeʻuhi ko hono huafa.
15Et huic concordant verba prophetarum: sicut scriptum est:
15Pea ʻoku tatau mo ia ʻae lea ʻae kau palōfita; ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi,
16[Post hæc revertar, et reædificabo tabernaculum David quod decidit: et diruta ejus reædificabo, et erigam illud:
16‘Pea hili ia te u liliu mai, ʻo toe langa ʻae fale fehikitaki ʻo Tevita, ʻaia kuo hinga; pea te u toe langa hono potu naʻe maumau, pea te u fokotuʻu ia:
17ut requirant ceteri hominum Dominum, et omnes gentes super quas invocatum est nomen meum, dicit Dominus faciens hæc.
17Koeʻuhi ke kumi ki he ʻEiki ʻae kakai ʻoku toe, pea mo e Senitaile kotoa pē, ʻoku takua ki ai hoku hingoa, ʻoku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, ʻaia ʻoku ne fai ʻae meʻa ni kotoa pē.
18Notum a sæculo est Domino opus suum.]
18ʻOku ʻilo ʻe he ʻOtua ʻene ngāue kotoa pē talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻo māmani.’
19Propter quod ego judico non inquietari eos qui ex gentibus convertuntur ad Deum,
19“Pea ko eni, ko hoku loto, ke ʻoua naʻa tau fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu kuo fakatafoki ki he ʻOtua mei he ngaahi Senitaile:
20sed scribere ad eos ut abstineant se a contaminationibus simulacrorum, et fornicatione, et suffocatis, et sanguine.
20Ka ke tau tohi kiate kinautolu, ke nau fakamamaʻo mei he fakalielia ʻoe ngaahi tamapua, mo e feʻauaki, mo e meʻa kuo sisina, mo e toto.
21Moyses enim a temporibus antiquis habet in singulis civitatibus qui eum prædicent in synagogis, ubi per omne sabbatum legitur.
21He ʻoku ai ʻi he kolo kotoa pē, talu mei muʻa, ʻakinautolu ʻoku malangaʻaki ʻa Mōsese, pea nau lau ia ʻi he ngaahi falelotu ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate kotoa pē.”
22Tunc placuit Apostolis et senioribus cum omni ecclesia eligere viros ex eis, et mittere Antiochiam cum Paulo et Barnaba: Judam, qui cognominabatur Barsabas, et Silam, viros primos in fratribus:
22Pea naʻe lelei ki he kau ʻaposetolo mo e mātuʻa, pea mo e siasi kotoa pē, ke fili meiate kinautolu mo fekau atu ha ongo tangata, ke nau ō mo Paula mo Pānepasa ki ʻAniteoke; ko Siutasi ʻoku hingoa ko Pasapa, mo Sailosi, ko e ongo tangata takimuʻa ʻi he kāinga:
23scribentes per manus eorum: Apostoli et seniores fratres, his qui sunt Antiochiæ, et Syriæ, et Ciliciæ, fratribus ex gentibus, salutem.
23Pea naʻa nau fai ʻae tohi ke nau ʻave; ʻo pehē, “Ko e kau ʻaposetolo mo e mātuʻa pea mo e kāinga, ʻoku mau ʻofa atu ki he kāinga Senitaile ʻi ʻAniteoke mo Silia mo Silisia:
24Quoniam audivimus quia quidam ex nobis exeuntes, turbaverunt vos verbis, evertentes animas vestras, quibus non mandavimus,
24Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻemau fanongo kuo fakamamahiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea, pea fakamaveuveuʻi homou loto, ʻe ha niʻihi, naʻe ʻalu atu ʻiate kimautolu, ʻi heʻenau pehē, Ke mou kamu, mo fai ki he fono: ka naʻe ʻikai te mau fekau kiate kinautolu:
25placuit nobis collectis in unum eligere viros, et mittere ad vos cum carissimis nostris Barnaba et Paulo,
25Kuo hā lelei kiate kimautolu, ʻi heʻemau fakataha ʻo loto taha, ke fekau atu kiate kimoutolu ʻae ongo tangata kuo fili, mo homau kāinga ʻofeina ko Pānepasa mo Paula,
26hominibus qui tradiderunt animas suas pro nomine Domini nostri Jesu Christi.
26Ko e ongo tangata kuo na liʻaki ʻena moʻui koeʻuhi ko e huafa ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
27Misimus ergo Judam et Silam, qui et ipsi vobis verbis referent eadem.
27Ko ia kuo mau fekau atu ai ʻa Siutasi mo Sailosi, pea ʻe fakamatala foki ʻekinaua ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni.
28Visum est enim Spiritui Sancto et nobis nihil ultra imponere vobis oneris quam hæc necessaria:
28Naʻe lelei ki he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, pea mo kimautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha kavenga mamafa kiate kimoutolu, ka ko e ngaahi meʻa totonu ni;
29ut abstineatis vos ab immolatis simulacrorum, et sanguine, et suffocato, et fornicatione: a quibus custodientes vos, bene agetis. Valete.
29Ke mou fakamamaʻo mei he meʻakai kuo feilaulau ʻaki ki he ngaahi tamapua, pea mei he toto, mo e meʻa kuo sisina, pea mo e feʻauaki; ʻaia ka mou ka mavahe ʻakimoutolu mei ai, te mou lelei. Siʻotoʻofa atu kiate kimoutolu.”
30Illi ergo dimissi, descenderunt Antiochiam: et congregata multitudine tradiderunt epistolam.
30Pea kuo nau māvae, pea nau fononga ki ʻAniteoke: pea kuo nau fakataha ai ʻae kakai, naʻa nau tuku ʻae tohi kiate kinautolu .
31Quam cum legissent, gavisi sunt super consolatione.
31Pea hili ʻenau lau ia, naʻa nau fiefia koeʻuhi ko e fakafiemālie.
32Judas autem et Silas, et ipsi cum essent prophetæ, verbo plurimo consolati sunt fratres, et confirmaverunt.
32Pea naʻe ako ʻi he ngaahi lea lahi, mo tokoni ki he kāinga, ʻe Siutasi mo Sailosi, he ko e ongo palōfita foki ʻakinaua.
33Facto autem ibi aliquanto tempore, dimissi sunt cum pace a fratribus ad eos qui miserant illos.
33Pea hili ʻenau nofo ai ʻo fuoloa siʻi, naʻe tuku fiemālie atu ʻakinautolu mei he kāinga, ke ō ki he kau ʻaposetolo.
34Visum est autem Silæ ibi remanere: Judas autem solus abiit Jerusalem.
34Ka naʻe loto ʻa Sailosi ke nofo ai pe ia.
35Paulus autem et Barnabas demorabantur Antiochiæ, docentes et evangelizantes cum aliis pluribus verbum Domini.
35Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Paula mo Pānepasa ʻi ʻAniteoke, ʻo ako mo malangaʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki, pea mo e tokolahi kehe.
36Post aliquot autem dies, dixit ad Barnabam Paulus: Revertentes visitemus fratres per universas civitates in quibus prædicavimus verbum Domini, quomodo se habeant.
36Pea hili ʻae ʻaho niʻihi, naʻe pehē ʻe Paula kia Pānepasa, “Ke ta toe ō, ʻo ʻaʻahi ki hota kāinga ʻi he kolo kotoa pē, naʻa ta malangaʻaki ai ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki, pē ʻoku nau fēfē.”
37Barnabas autem volebat secum assumere et Joannem, qui cognominabatur Marcus.
37Pea naʻe loto ʻa Pānepasa ke na ʻave ʻa Sione, ʻoku hingoa ko Maʻake.
38Paulus autem rogabat eum (ut qui discessisset ab eis de Pamphylia, et non isset cum eis in opus) non debere recipi.
38Ka naʻe ʻikai lelei kia Paula ke na ʻave ia, ʻaia naʻa ne liaki ʻakinaua ʻi Pamifilia, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻalu mo kinaua ki he ngāue.
39Facta est autem dissensio, ita ut discederent ab invicem, et Barnabas quidem, assumpto Marco, navigaret Cyprum.
39Pea ʻi heʻena kikihi ʻo lahi, naʻa na māvae: pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Pānepasa ʻa Maʻake, ʻo na folau ki Saipalo;
40Paulus vero, electo Sila, profectus est, traditus gratiæ Dei a fratribus.
40Pea naʻe fili ʻe Paula ʻa Sailosi, pea na ō, kuo hūfia ʻe he kāinga ʻakinaua ki he ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua.
41Perambulabat autem Syriam et Ciliciam, confirmans ecclesias: præcipiens custodire præcepta Apostolorum et seniorum.
41Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi Silia mo Silisia, ʻo ne tokoniʻi ʻae ngaahi siasi.
