Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Ke tuʻumaʻu pe ʻae feʻofoʻofani fakakāinga.
1Let brotherly love continue.
2ʻOua naʻa ngalo ke fakaafe ʻae kakai muli: he kuo fakaafe ai ʻe he niʻihi ʻae kau ʻāngelo ʻi he taʻeʻilo.
2Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
3Manatuʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku moʻua ʻi he haʻi, ʻo hangē kuo haʻisia mo kimoutolu; mo kinautolu ʻoku ngaohikoviʻi, ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou kei ʻi he sino foki.
3Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
4Ko e fakamaʻu mali mo e mohenga taʻeʻuliʻi, ʻoku lelei ia ki he kakai kotoa pē, ka koe kau feʻauaki mo e kau tono fefine ʻe fakamaau ʻe he ʻOtua.
4Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
5Ke taʻemanumanu hoʻomou ʻulungāanga; pea mou fiemālie ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku mou maʻu: he kuo pehē mai ʻe ia, “E ʻikai te u liʻaki koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻiate koe.”
5Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
6Ko ia ʻoku tau lea mālohi ai, “Ko hoku tokoni ʻae ʻEiki pea ʻe ʻikai te u manavahē ki ha meʻa ʻe fai ʻe he tangata kiate au.”
6So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
7Manatuʻi ʻa homou kau fakahinohino, ʻakinautolu naʻe leaʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu, pea faʻifaʻitaki ki heʻenau tui, ʻo fakatokanga ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻenau ʻulungāanga.
7Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.
8Ko Sisu Kalaisi ʻoku tatau ʻi he ʻaneafi, mo e ʻaho ni, pea taʻengata.
8Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
9Ke ʻoua naʻa feʻaveʻaki fano ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ngaahi akonaki ʻoku kehekehe hono anga mo foʻou. He ko e meʻa lelei ke tuʻumaʻu ʻae loto ʻi he ʻofa; ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi meʻakai, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ʻaonga kiate kinautolu naʻe moʻua ki ai.
9Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.
10ʻOku ai ʻetau ʻesifeilaulau, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke kai mei ai ʻekinautolu ʻoku tauhi ʻi he fale fehikitaki.
10We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.
11Kaeʻumaʻā ia, ʻoku tutu ʻi tuaʻā kolo ʻae sino ʻoe fanga manu ko ia, ʻaia ʻoku ʻomi honau toto ʻe he taulaʻeiki lahi ki he potu tapu, koeʻuhi ko e angahala.
11For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.
12Ko ia naʻe mamahi foki ʻa Sisu, ʻi he tuaʻā kolo, koeʻuhi ke ne fakamāʻoniʻoni ʻae kakai ʻaki hono taʻataʻa ʻoʻona.
12Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
13Ko ia ke tau ʻalu atu kiate ia kituaʻā kolo, ʻo fua hono manuki.
13Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
14He ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻekitautolu ʻi heni ha kolo ʻe tuʻumaʻu, ka ʻoku tau kumi ki ha taha ʻe hoko.
14For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
15Ko ia ke tau ʻatu ʻiate ia ʻae feilaulau ʻoe fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua ʻo maʻuaipē, ʻaia ko e fua ʻoe loungutu ʻoka atu ai ʻae fakafetaʻi ki hono huafa.
15By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
16Ka ko e fai lelei, mo e foaki, ke ʻoua naʻa ngalo: he ko e ngaahi feilaulau pehē ʻoku leleiʻia ai ʻae ʻOtua.
16But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
17Mou talangofua kiate kinautolu ʻoku fakahinohino ʻakimoutolu, pea mou fakavaivai: he ʻoku nau leʻohi homou laumālie, he te nau fakamatala ki ai, pea koeʻuhi ke nau fai ia ʻi he fiefia, kaeʻoua naʻa ʻi he mamahi: he ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ia kiate kimoutolu.
17Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.
18Hūfia ʻakimautolu: he ʻoku mau ʻilo kuo ʻiate kimautolu ʻae ʻatamai lelei, pea ʻoku mau loto ke moʻui angatonu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē.
18Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.
19Ka ʻoku ou kole ke mou tokanga lahi ki ai, koeʻuhi ke tuku au ke vave kiate kimoutolu.
19But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
20Ko eni, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe monūʻia, naʻa ne toe ʻomi mei he pekia ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu, ko e tauhi lahi ʻoe fanga sipi ʻi he taʻataʻa ʻoe fuakava taʻengata.
20Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
21ʻOfa ke ne ngaohi ʻakimoutolu ke mou haohaoa ʻi he ngaue lelei kotoa pē, ke fai hono finangalo, ʻo ne fai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi hono ʻao, ʻia Sisu Kalaisi; ke ʻiate ia ʻae ongoongolelei ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni.
21Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
22Pea ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, mou tali ʻae lea ʻoe akonaki ni: he kuo u tohi ʻae tohi kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi lea siʻi pe.
22And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words.
23ʻOku mou ʻilo kuo mamaʻo atu hotau kāinga ko Timote; ʻa ia, ka vave ʻene haʻu, te ma mamata mo ia kiate kimoutolu.
23Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.
24ʻOfa atu kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fakahinohino ʻakimoutolu, mo e kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē. ʻOku ʻofa atu kiate kimoutolu kotoa ʻakinautolu ʻi ʻItali.
24Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.
25Ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae ʻaloʻofa. ʻEmeni.
25Grace be with you all. Amen.
