Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Viri fratres, et patres, audite quam ad vos nunc reddo rationem.
1“ʻAe kāinga tangata, mo e ngaahi tamai, mou fanongo ki heʻeku fakamatala ni kiate kimoutolu.”
2Cum audissent autem quia hebræa lingua loqueretur ad illos, magis præstiterunt silentium.
2(Pea ʻi heʻenau fanongo ʻoku ne lea kiate kinautolu ʻi he lea fakaHepelū, naʻa nau fakalongo pe: pea ne pehē,)
3Et dicit: Ego sum vir Judæus, natus in Tarso Ciliciæ, nutritus autem in ista civitate, secus pedes Gamaliel eruditus juxta veritatem paternæ legis, æmulator legis, sicut et vos omnes estis hodie:
3“Ko e moʻoni ko e tangata Siu au, naʻe fanauʻi au ʻi Tasusi, ʻi Silisia, ka naʻaku tupu hake ʻi he kolo ni ʻi he vaʻe ʻo Kāmelieli, pea naʻe akonekina au ʻi he fono ʻae ngaahi tamai, ʻo fakatatau ki hono totonu lahi, pea ne u fai velenga ki he ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻi he ʻaho ni.
4qui hanc viam persecutus sum usque ad mortem, alligans et tradens in custodias viros ac mulieres,
4Pea naʻaku fakatangaʻi ʻae hala ko eni ʻo aʻu ki he mate, ʻo haʻisia mo fakahū ki he ngaahi fale fakapōpula ʻae tangata mo e fefine.
5sicut princeps sacerdotum mihi testimonium reddit, et omnes majores natu: a quibus et epistolas accipiens, ad fratres Damascum pergebam, ut adducerem inde vinctos in Jerusalem ut punirentur.
5Pea ʻoku fakamoʻoni kiate au ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau mātuʻa kotoa pē: ʻaia ne u maʻu mei ai ʻae ngaahi tohi ki he kāinga, pea u ʻalu ki Tamasikusi, ke haʻisia mo ʻomi ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻi ai ki Selūsalema, ke tautea.
6Factum est autem, eunte me, et appropinquante Damasco media die, subito de cælo circumfulsit me lux copiosa:
6“Pea pehē, ʻi heʻeku fai ʻeku fononga, kuo u ofi ki Tamasikusi, ʻi he hoʻatāmālie, pea fakafokifā, kuo malama mai mei he langi ʻae maama lahi ʻo takatakai ʻiate au.
7et decidens in terram, audivi vocem dicentem mihi: Saule, Saule, quid me persequeris?
7Pea ne u tō ki he kelekele, pea u fanongo ki he leʻo, ʻoku pehē mai kiate au, ‘ʻE Saula, ʻe Saula, ko e hā ʻoku ke fakatanga ai au?’
8Ego autem respondi: Quis es, domine? Dixitque ad me: Ego sum Jesus Nazarenus, quem tu persequeris.
8Pea ne u pehē, ‘ʻE ʻEiki, ko hai koe?’ Pea ne pehē mai kiate au, ‘Ko au Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti, ʻaia ʻoku ke fakatangaʻi.’
9Et qui mecum erant, lumen quidem viderunt, vocem autem non audierunt ejus qui loquebatur mecum.
9Pea naʻe mamata moʻoni ki he maama ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻiate au, pea manavahē; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo ia naʻe lea mai kiate au.
10Et dixi: Quid faciam, domine? Dominus autem dixit ad me: Surgens vade Damascum: et ibi tibi dicetur de omnibus quæ te oporteat facere.
10Pea ne u pehē, ‘ʻE ʻEiki, ko e hā te u fai?’ Pea pehē mai ʻe he ʻEiki kiate au, ‘Tuʻu, ʻo ʻalu ki Tamasikusi; pea ʻe tala ʻi ai kiate koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kuo tuʻutuʻuni ke ke fai.’
11Et cum non viderem præ claritate luminis illius, ad manum deductus a comitibus, veni Damascum.
11Pea naʻe ʻikai te u kei mamata, ko e meʻa ʻi he malama lahi ʻae maama ko ia, pea naʻe taki nima au ʻekinautolu naʻe ʻiate au, pea ne u aʻu ki Tamasikusi.
12Ananias autem quidam vir secundum legem, testimonium habens ab omnibus cohabitantibus Judæis,
12“Pea ko e tokotaha ko ʻAnanaia, ko e tangata faʻa lotu ʻo fakatatau ki he fono, pea ongo lelei ia ʻi he kakai Siu kotoa pē naʻe nofo ai;
13veniens ad me et astans, dixit mihi: Saule frater, respice. Et ego eadem hora respexi in eum.
13Naʻe haʻu ia kiate au, ʻo tuʻu mai, mo ne pehē mai kiate au, ‘ʻE kāinga ko Saula, ke ʻā ho mata.’ Pea ʻi he feituʻulaʻā pē ko ia ne u sio hake kiate ia.
14At ille dixit: Deus patrum nostrorum præordinavit te, ut cognosceres voluntatem ejus, et videres justum, et audires vocem ex ore ejus:
14Pe ne pehē mai, ‘Kuo fili koe ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo ʻetau ngaahi tamai, ke ke ʻilo hono finangalo, mo mamata ki he Toko Taha Angatonu ko ia, mo ke fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo hono fofonga.
15quia eris testis illius ad omnes homines eorum quæ vidisti et audisti.
15He te ke hoko ko ʻene fakamoʻoni ʻoe meʻa kuo ke mamata mo fanongo ai ki he kakai kotoa pē.
16Et nunc quid moraris? Exsurge, et baptizare, et ablue peccata tua, invocato nomine ipsius.
16Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke fakatuai ai? Tuʻu, pea ke papitaiso, ʻo fakamaʻa koe mei hoʻo angahala, pea ui ki he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki.’
17Factum est autem revertenti mihi in Jerusalem, et oranti in templo, fieri me in stupore mentis,
17“Pea ʻi heʻeku toe haʻu ki Selūsalema, naʻe pehē, naʻe ʻāvea hoku loto, lolotonga ʻeku lotu ʻi he falelotu lahi;
18et videre illum dicentem mihi: Festina, et exi velociter ex Jerusalem: quoniam non recipient testimonium tuum de me.
18Pea ne u mamata kiate ia, pea ne pehē mai kiate au, ‘Fakatoʻotoʻo, mo ke ʻalu ke vave ʻi Selūsalema: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te nau tui ki hoʻo fakamoʻoni kiate au.’
19Et ego dixi: Domine, ipsi sciunt quia ego eram concludens in carcerem, et cædens per synagogas eos qui credebant in te:
19Pea ne u pehē, ‘ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoku nau ʻilo ko au naʻaku fakahū ki he fale fakapōpula mo haha ʻi he falelotu kotoa pe ʻakinautolu naʻe tui kiate koe.
20et cum funderetur sanguis Stephani testis tui, ego astabam, et consentiebam, et custodiebam vestimenta interficientium illum.
20Pea ʻi he lilingi ʻoe toto ʻo hoʻo fakamoʻoni ko Setiveni, naʻaku tuʻu ʻi ai foki, pea u loto ki hono tāmateʻi, pea ne u tauhi ʻae kofu ʻokinautolu naʻa nau tāmateʻi ia.’
21Et dixit ad me: Vade, quoniam ego in nationes longe mittam te.
21Pea pehē mai ʻe ia kiate au, ‘Ke ke ʻalu: he te u fekau koe ki he mamaʻo ki he ngaahi Senitaile.’
22Audiebant autem eum usque ad hoc verbum, et levaverunt vocem suam, dicentes: Tolle de terra hujusmodi: non enim fas est eum vivere.
22¶ Pea naʻa nau fakafanongo kiate ia ʻo aʻu ki he lea ko ia, pea nau toki kalanga lahi, ʻo pehē, “Ke ʻave ʻi māmani ʻae siana pehē: ʻoku ʻikai lelei ke moʻui ia.”
23Vociferantibus autem eis, et projicientibus vestimenta sua, et pulverem jactantibus in aërem,
23Pea ʻi heʻenau kalanga, mo lī ki lalo honau kofu, pea laku ki ʻolunga ʻae efu,
24jussit tribunus induci eum in castra, et flagellis cædi, et torqueri eum, ut sciret propter quam causam sic acclamarent ei.
24Naʻe fekau ʻe he ʻeikitau ke ʻomi ia ki he fale lahi ʻoe kau tau, pea fekau ke ʻeke mo kauʻimaea ia; ke ne ʻilo pe ko e hā ʻoku nau kalanga pehē ai kiate ia.
25Et cum astrinxissent eum loris, dicit astanti sibi centurioni Paulus: Si hominem Romanum et indemnatum licet vobis flagellare?
25Pea ʻi heʻenau haʻi ʻaki ia ʻae kiliʻi manu, pea pehē ʻe Paula ki he ʻeikitau naʻe tuʻu ai, “ʻOku ngofua hoʻomou kauʻimaea ha tangata Loma, ʻoku teʻeki ai fakamaauʻi?”
26Quo audito, centurio accessit ad tribunum, et nuntiavit ei, dicens: Quid acturus es? hic enim homo civis Romanus est.
26Pea kuo fanongo ki ai ʻae ʻeikitau, pea ʻalu ia ʻo tala ki he pule ʻoe tau, ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ke vakai ki he meʻa ʻoku ke fai: he ko e tangata Loma eni.”
27Accedens autem tribunus, dixit illi: Dic mihi si tu Romanus es? At ille dixit: Etiam.
27Pea haʻu ai ʻae pule ʻoe tau, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Tala mai kiate au, ko e Loma koe?” Pea ne pehē, “ʻIo.”
28Et respondit tribunus: Ego multa summa civilitatem hanc consecutus sum. Et Paulus ait: Ego autem et natus sum.
28Pea pehē ʻe he pule ʻoe tau, “Ko e paʻanga lahi naʻaku fakatauʻaki ʻeau ke u ʻoe kakai ko ia.” Pea pehē ʻe Paula, “Ka naʻe fanauʻi au ko ia.”
29Protinus ergo discesserunt ab illo qui eum torturi erant. Tribunus quoque timuit postquam rescivit, quia civis Romanus esset, et quia alligasset eum.
29Pea ʻalu leva ʻiate ia ʻakinautolu naʻe fai ke fakamamahiʻi ia: pea naʻe manavahē foki mo e pule ʻoe tau, ʻi heʻene ʻilo ko e Loma ia, pea koeʻuhi kuo ne haʻi ia.
30Postera autem die volens scire diligentius qua ex causa accusaretur a Judæis, solvit eum, et jussit sacerdotes convenire, et omne concilium: et producens Paulum, statuit inter illos.
30Pea pongipongi ai, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fie ʻilo hono moʻoni ʻoe meʻa kuo tukuakiʻi ai ia ʻe he kakai Siu, naʻa ne vete ʻiate ia hono haʻi, mo ne fekau ki he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau fakamaau kotoa pē ke fakataha, pea ne ʻomi ki lalo ʻa Paula, ʻo tuku ia ʻi honau ʻao.
