Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Pea ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, naʻe lahi ʻae fakatanga ki he siasi ʻi Selūsalema; pea naʻe fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ko Siutea mo Samēlia, kae nofo pe ʻae kau ʻaposetolo.
1Facta est autem in illa die persecutio magna in ecclesia quæ erat Jerosolymis, et omnes dispersi sunt per regiones Judææ et Samariæ præter Apostolos.
2Pea naʻe fai ʻae putu ʻo Setiveni ʻe he kau tangata lotu, pea naʻe lahi ʻenau tangi ʻiate ia.
2Curaverunt autem Stephanum viri timorati, et fecerunt planctum magnum super eum.
3Ka ko Saula naʻa ne maumauʻi ʻae siasi, ʻo hū ki he fale kotoa pē, mo ne toho ʻae kakai tangata mo e fefine, ʻo fakahū ki he fale fakapōpula.
3Saulus autem devastabat ecclesiam per domos intrans, et trahens viros ac mulieres, tradebat in custodiam.
4Pea ko kinautolu naʻe fakamovetevete, naʻa nau ʻalu ki he potu kotoa pē, mo malangaʻaki ʻae folofola.
4Igitur qui dispersi erant pertransibant, evangelizantes verbum Dei.
5Pea naʻe toki ʻalu hifo ʻa Filipe ki he kolo ʻo Samēlia, ʻo malangaʻaki ʻa Kalaisi kiate kinautolu.
5Philippus autem descendens in civitatem Samariæ, prædicabant illis Christum.
6Pea naʻe tokanga ʻo loto taha ʻae kakai ki he ngaahi meʻa naʻe leaʻaki ʻe Filipe, ʻi heʻenau fanongo mo mamata ki he ngaahi mana naʻa ne fai.
6Intendebant autem turbæ his quæ a Philippo dicebantur, unanimiter audientes, et videntes signa quæ faciebat.
7He naʻe haʻu kituʻa ʻae kau laumālie ʻuli mei he tokolahi naʻa nau ʻulusino ai, ʻonau tangi leʻo lahi: pea naʻe fakamoʻui ʻae tokolahi naʻe pukea ʻi he mahaki tete, pea mo e kau pipiki.
7Multi enim eorum qui habebant spiritus immundos, clamantes voce magna exibant. Multi autem paralytici et claudi curati sunt.
8Pea naʻe lahi ʻae fiefia ʻi he kolo ko ia.
8Factum est ergo gaudium magnum in illa civitate.
9Ka naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tangata naʻe hingoa ko Saimone, ʻaia ne tomuʻa fai ʻae kikite ʻi he kolo ʻo ne fakamanaʻi ʻae kakai ʻo Samēlia, mo ne pole ko e lahi ia:
9Vir autem quidam nomine Simon, qui ante fuerat in civitate magus, seducens gentem Samariæ, dicens se esse aliquem magnum:
10Pea naʻa nau tokanga kotoa pē kiate ia, mei he iiki ʻo aʻu ki he lalahi, ʻonau pehē, “Ko e mālohi lahi ʻoe ʻOtua ʻae tangata ni.”
10cui auscultabant omnes a minimo usque ad maximum, dicentes: Hic est virtus Dei, quæ vocatur magna.
11Pea naʻa nau tokanga kiate ia, koeʻuhi kuo fuoloa ʻene fakaofo kiate kinautolu ʻi heʻene fie mana.
11Attendebant autem eum: propter quod multo tempore magiis suis dementasset eos.
12Ka kuo nau tui kia Filipe, ʻi heʻene malangaʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoe puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, mo e huafa ʻo Sisu Kalaisi, pea nau papitaiso, ʻae tangata mo e fefine.
12Cum vero credidissent Philippo evangelizanti de regno Dei, in nomine Jesu Christi baptizabantur viri ac mulieres.
13Pea toki tui foki mo Saimone: pea kuo papitaiso ia, pea nofo ia mo Filipe, ʻo ofo ʻi heʻene mamata ki he ngaahi mana mo e meʻa fakaofo lahi naʻa ne fai.
13Tunc Simon et ipse credidit: et cum baptizatus esset, adhærebat Philippo. Videns etiam signa et virtutes maximas fieri, stupens admirabatur.
14Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae kau ʻaposetolo ʻi Selūsalema kuo tali ʻe Samēlia, ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua, naʻa nau fekau ʻa Pita mo Sione kiate kinautolu:
14Cum autem audissent Apostoli qui erant Jerosolymis, quod recepisset Samaria verbum Dei, miserunt ad eos Petrum et Joannem.
15Pea ʻi heʻena hoko hifo, naʻa na hūfia ʻakinautolu, ke nau maʻu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni:
15Qui cum venissent, oraverunt pro ipsis ut acciperent Spiritum Sanctum:
16(He naʻe teʻeki ai tō ia ki ha niʻihi ʻiate kinautolu: ka kuo nau papitaiso pe ʻi he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.)
16nondum enim in quemquam illorum venerat, sed baptizati tantum erant in nomine Domini Jesu.
17Pea naʻa na toki hilifaki hona nima kiate kinautolu, pea nau maʻu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.
17Tunc imponebant manus super illos, et accipiebant Spiritum Sanctum.
18Pea kuo mamata ʻa Saimone ʻoku foaki ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni ʻi he hili ʻae nima ʻoe ongo ʻaposetolo, pea fie ʻatu ʻe ia ʻae paʻanga kiate kinaua,
18Cum vidisset autem Simon quia per impositionem manus Apostolorum daretur Spiritus Sanctus, obtulit eis pecuniam,
19ʻO ne pehē, “Foaki mai foki kiate au ʻae mālohi ni, koeʻuhi ke ʻilonga ʻaia te u hili ki ai hoku nima, ke maʻu ʻe ia ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.”
19dicens: Date et mihi hanc potestatem, ut cuicumque imposuero manus, accipiat Spiritum Sanctum. Petrus autem dixit ad eum:
20Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Pita kiate ia, “Ke malaʻia mo koe hoʻo paʻanga, koeʻuhi kuo ke mahalo ʻe faʻa fakatauʻaki ʻae paʻanga ʻae foaki ʻae ʻOtua.
20Pecunia tua tecum sit in perditionem: quoniam donum Dei existimasti pecunia possideri.
21ʻOku ʻikai siʻi hao ʻinasi pe tufakanga ʻi he meʻa ni: he ʻoku ʻikai lelei ho loto ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
21Non est tibi pars neque sors in sermone isto: cor enim tuum non est rectum coram Deo.
22Ko ia ke ke fakatomala ʻi hoʻo angahala ni, pea hū ki he ʻOtua, heiʻilo ʻe fakamolemole kiate koe ʻae mahalo ʻo ho loto.
22Pœnitentiam itaque age ab hac nequitia tua: et roga Deum, si forte remittatur tibi hæc cogitatio cordis tui.
23He ʻoku ou ʻilo ni ʻoku ke ʻi he kona ʻoe ʻahu, pea ʻoku haʻi ʻaki koe ʻae angahala.”
23In felle enim amaritudinis, et obligatione iniquitatis, video te esse.
24Pea leaange ʻa Saimone, ʻo pehē, “Mo hūfia au ki he ʻEiki, ke ʻoua naʻa tō kiate au ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kuo mo lea ki ai.”
24Respondens autem Simon, dixit: Precamini vos pro me ad Dominum, ut nihil veniat super me horum quæ dixistis.
25Pea kuo ʻosi ʻena fakahā mo malangaʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki, ne na toe liu mai ki Selūsalema, ʻo malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ʻi he ngaahi potu kakai kehekehe ʻo Samēlia.
25Et illi quidem testificati, et locuti verbum Domini, redibant Jerosolymam, et multis regionibus Samaritanorum evangelizabant.
26Pea naʻe lea ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻEiki kia Filipe, ʻo pehē, “Tuʻu, pea ke ʻalu ki he feituʻu tonga, ki he hala ʻoku ʻalu hifo mei Selūsalema ki Kesa, ʻaia ko e toafa.”
26Angelus autem Domini locutus est ad Philippum, dicens: Surge, et vade contra meridianum, ad viam quæ descendit ab Jerusalem in Gazam: hæc est deserta.
27Pea tuʻu ia, ʻo ʻalu: pea vakai, ko e tangata ʻItiopea, ko e ʻiunoke, koē naʻe ʻaʻana ʻae tauhi ʻo ʻene koloa kotoa pē, pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki Selūsalema ke lotu:
27Et surgens abiit. Et ecce vir Æthiops, eunuchus, potens Candacis reginæ Æthiopum, qui erat super omnes gazas ejus, venerat adorare in Jerusalem:
28Pea ʻi heʻene liu mai, kuo heka ʻi hono saliote, pea naʻe lau ʻe ia ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia.
28et revertebatur sedens super currum suum, legensque Isaiam prophetam.
29Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe he Laumālie kia Filipe, “ʻAlu atu ke hoko ki he saliote na.”
29Dixit autem Spiritus Philippo: Accede, et adjunge te ad currum istum.
30Pea lele atu ʻa Filipe, ʻo ne fanongo ki heʻene lautohi ʻi he palōfita ko ʻIsaia, pea ne pehē, “ʻOku ke ʻilo hono ʻuhinga ʻo ia ʻoku ke lau?”
30Accurrens autem Philippus, audivit eum legentem Isaiam prophetam, et dixit: Putasne intelligis quæ legis?
31Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Te u ʻilo fēfē, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai fakahinohino au ʻe ha tangata?” Pea naʻa ne kole kia Filipe ke ʻalu hake ke na haheka mo ia.
31Qui ait: Et quomodo possum, si non aliquis ostenderit mihi? Rogavitque Philippum ut ascenderet, et sederet secum.
32Ko e potu ʻeni ʻi he tohi naʻa ne lau, “Naʻe tataki ia ʻo hangē ko e sipi ke tāmateʻi; pea hangē ko e lami ʻoku noa ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tangata kosi, pehē naʻe ʻikai mafaʻa hono fofonga:
32Locus autem Scripturæ quem legebat, erat hic: [Tamquam ovis ad occisionem ductus est: et sicut agnus coram tondente se, sine voce, sic non aperuit os suum.
33ʻI heʻene moʻulaloa naʻe fakamālohiʻi ia: pea ko hai te ne fakahā hono tupuʻanga? He naʻe ʻave ʻene moʻui ʻi māmani.”
33In humilitate judicium ejus sublatum est. Generationem ejus quis enarrabit? quoniam tolletur de terra vita ejus.]
34Pea leaange ʻae ʻiunoke kia Filipe, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ko e lea eni ʻae palōfita kia hai? Kiate ia, pe ki ha tangata kehe?”
34Respondens autem eunuchus Philippo, dixit: Obsecro te, de quo propheta dicit hoc? de se, an de alio aliquo?
35Pea mafaʻa ʻae ngutu ʻo Filipe ʻo ne kamata ʻi he tohi ko ia, ʻo malangaʻaki ʻa Sisu kiate ia.
35Aperiens autem Philippus os suum, et incipiens a Scriptura ista, evangelizavit illi Jesum.
36Pea ʻi heʻena fononga ʻi he hala, naʻa na hoko ki he vai: pea pehē ʻe he ʻiunoke, “Vakai, ko e vai; ko e hā ʻoku taʻofi ke ʻoua naʻaku papitaiso?”
36Et dum irent per viam, venerunt ad quamdam aquam: et ait eunuchus: Ecce aqua: quid prohibet me baptizari?
37Pea pehē ʻe Filipe, “ʻOku lelei ia, ʻo kapau ʻoku ke tuiʻaki ho loto kotoa.” Pea ne leaange, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou tui ko Sisu Kalaisi ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua,”
37Dixit autem Philippus: Si credis ex toto corde, licet. Et respondens ait: Credo Filium Dei esse Jesum Christum.
38pea fekau ʻe ia ke tuʻu ʻae saliote: pea ne na ʻohifo fakatouʻosi ki he vai, ʻa Filipe mo e ʻiunoke; pea ne papitaiso ʻi ai.
38Et jussit stare currum: et descenderunt uterque in aquam, Philippus et eunuchus, et baptizavit eum.
39Pea kuo na ʻohake mei he vai, pea ʻave ʻa Filipe ʻe he Laumālie ʻoe ʻEiki, pea naʻe ʻikai toe mamata ʻe he ʻiunoke kiate ia: pea fononga ia ʻi hono hala kuo fiefia.
39Cum autem ascendissent de aqua, Spiritus Domini rapuit Philippum, et amplius non vidit eum eunuchus. Ibat autem per viam suam gaudens.
40Ka naʻe ʻilo ʻa Filipe ʻi ʻAsota: pea fononga atu ia, mo malanga ʻi he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē, ʻo fai ki Sesalia.
40Philippus autem inventus est in Azoto, et pertransiens evangelizabat civitatibus cunctis, donec veniret Cæsaream.
