1Pea ko ia, ʻi he ʻilo ʻe he ʻEiki kuo fanongo ʻae kau Fālesi, ʻoku ului pea papitaiso ʻe Sisu ʻae kau ākonga tokolahi ʻia Sione,
1When Jesus therefore understood that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus maketh more disciples, and baptizeth more than John,
2(Ka naʻe ʻikai fai papitaiso ʻe Sisu, ka ko ʻene kau ākonga,)
2(Though Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples,)
3Naʻe mahuʻi ia mei Siutea, pea toe ʻalu ki Kāleli.
3He left Judea, and went again into Galilee.
4Pea naʻe totonu ke ʻalu atu ʻi Samēlia.
4And he was of necessity to pass through Samaria.
5Pea hoko ia ki ha kolo ʻo Samēlia, naʻe ui ko Saika, ʻo ofi ki he potu fonua naʻe foaki ʻe Sēkope ki hono foha ko Siosefa.
5He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria, which is called Sichar, near the land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae vai keli ʻo Sēkope. Pea kuo hela ʻa Sisu ʻi he fononga, pea nofo ia ʻi he ngutu vai: pea ko hono ono nai ʻoe feituʻulaʻā.
6Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7Mo ʻene ʻalu ange ha fefine Samēlia ke ʻutu vai: pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Foaki mai kiate au ke u inu.”
7There cometh a woman of Samaria, to draw water. Jesus saith to her: Give me to drink.
8(He kuo ʻalu ʻene kau ākonga ki he kolo ke fakatau meʻakai.)
8For his disciples were gone into the city to buy meats.
9Pea pehēange ʻe he fefine Samēlia kiate ia, “Ko e Siu koe, pea ʻoku fēfeeʻi hoʻo tala inu kiate au, ko e fefine Samēlia?” He ʻoku ʻikai feʻofoʻofani ʻae kakai Siu mo e kakai Samēlia.
9Then that Samaritan woman saith to him: How dost thou, being a Jew, ask of me to drink, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Jews do not communicate with the Samaritans.
10Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Ka ne ke ʻilo ʻe koe ʻae foaki ʻae ʻOtua, pea mo ia ʻoku pehē kiate koe, Foaki mai kiate au ke u inu; pehē, kuo ke kole kiate ia, ka ne foaki kiate koe ʻae vai moʻui.”
10Jesus answered, and said to her: If thou didst know the gift of God, and who he is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou perhaps wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
11Pea pehē ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ʻikai haʻo meʻa ke ʻutu ʻaki, pea ʻoku māʻulalo ʻae vai: pea ʻoku ke maʻu mei fē ʻae vai moʻui ko ia?
11The woman saith to him: Sir, thou hast nothing wherein to draw, and the well is deep; from whence then hast thou living water?
12ʻOku ke lahi koe ʻi heʻemau tamai ko Sēkope, ʻaia naʻe foaki ʻae vai kiate kimautolu, pea naʻe inu ai ia, mo ʻene fānau, mo ʻene fanga manu?”
12Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Ko ia ʻoku inu ʻi he vai ni, ʻe toe fieinu ia:
13Jesus answered, and said to her: Whosoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again; but he that shall drink of the water that I will give him, shall not thirst for ever:
14Ka ko ia ʻe inu ʻi he vai te u foaki kiate ia, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito toe fieinu ia; ka ko e vai te u foaki kiate ia ʻe ʻiate ia ko e matavai mapunopuna hake ki he moʻui taʻengata.”
14But the water that I will give him, shall become in him a fountain of water, springing up into life everlasting.
15Pea pehē ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “ʻEiki, foaki mai ʻae vai ni kiate au, ke ʻoua naʻaku fieinu pe haʻu ki heni ke ʻutu.”
15The woman saith to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
16Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻAlu, ʻo ui ho husepāniti, pea haʻu ki heni.”
16Jesus saith to her: Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17Pea leaange ʻae fefine, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai haku husepāniti.” Pea tala ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOku moʻoni hoʻo lea, ʻOku ʻikai haku husepāniti:
17The woman answered, and said: I have no husband. Jesus said to her: Thou hast said well, I have no husband:
18He naʻa ke maʻu ʻae husepāniti ʻe toko nima; pea ko ia ʻoku ke maʻu ni, ʻoku ʻikai ko ho husepāniti: he meʻa ko ia kuo ke lea moʻoni.”
18For thou hast had five husbands: and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. This thou hast said truly.
19Pea pehē ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “ʻEiki, kuo u ʻilo ni ko e palōfita ʻa koe.
19The woman saith to him: Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20Naʻe hū ʻemau ngaahi tamai ʻi he moʻunga ko eni; ka ʻoku pehē ʻekimoutolu, ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema ʻae potu ʻoku totonu ke fai ai ʻe he kakai ʻae hū.”
20Our fathers adored on this mountain, and you say, that at Jerusalem is the place where men must adore.
21Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Fefine, tui mai kiate au, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ʻaho, ʻe ʻikai te mou hū ai ki he Tamai ʻi he moʻunga ni, pē ʻi Selūsalema.
21Jesus saith to her: Woman, believe me, that the hour cometh, when you shall neither on this mountain, not in Jerusalem, adore the Father.
22ʻOku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku mou hū ki ai: ʻoku mau ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku mau hū ki ai: he ʻoku mei he kakai Siu ʻae fakamoʻui.
22You adore that which you know not: we adore that which we know; for salvation is of the Jews.
23Ka ʻoku haʻu ʻae ʻaho, pea kuo hoko ni, ʻe hū ai ki he Tamai ʻae kakai hū moʻoni ʻi he laumalie mo e mo'oni: he 'oku kumi 'e he Tamai ʻae kakai pehē ke hū kiate ia.
23But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true adorers shall adore the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father also seeketh such to adore him.
24Ko e ʻOtua ko e Laumālie: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku hū kiate ia, ʻoku totonu ke hū ʻi he laumālie mo e moʻoni.”
24God is a spirit; and they that adore him, must adore him in spirit and in truth.
25Pea pehē ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻoku haʻu ʻae Misaia (ʻoku ui ko Kalaisi): pea ka haʻu ia, te ne fakahā ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kiate kimautolu.”
25The woman saith to him: I know that the Messias cometh (who is called Christ). Therefore, when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko au ia ʻoku ou lea kiate koe.”
26Jesus saith to her: I am he, who am speaking with thee.
27¶ Pea feʻunga mo ia, kuo haʻu ʻene kau ākonga, ʻonau ofo ʻi heʻene talanoa mo e fefine: ka naʻe ʻikai pehē ʻe ha taha, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kumi?” pē, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke talanoa ai mo ia?”
27And immediately his disciples came; and they wondered that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said: What seekest thou? or, why talkest thou with her?
28“Pea naʻe tuku ʻe he fefine ʻene hina vai, pea ʻalu ki he kolo, ʻo ne pehē ki he kakai,
28The woman therefore left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men there:
29“Haʻu, ʻo mamata ki he tangata, kuo ne tala kiate au ʻae meʻa kotoa pē naʻaku fai: ko e Kalaisi eni pe ʻikai?”
29Come, and see a man who has told me all things whatsoever I have done. Is not he the Christ?
30Pea naʻa nau ʻalu ai mei he kolo, ʻo haʻu kiate ia.
30They went therefore out of the city, and came unto him.
31¶ Pea lolotonga ia, naʻe fakakolekole ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Lāpai, ke ke kai.”
31In the mean time the disciples prayed him, saying: Rabbi, eat.
32Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ai ʻeku meʻa ke kai ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻiloa.”
32But he said to them: I have meat to eat, which you know not.
33Ko ia naʻe fepehēʻaki ai ʻae kau ākonga, “Kuo ʻomi ʻe ha tangata haʻane meʻa ke kai?”
33The disciples therefore said one to another: Hath any man brought him to eat?
34Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ko ʻeku meʻakai ko e fai ʻae loto ʻo ia naʻa ne fekau au, pea fakaʻosi ʻene ngāue.
34Jesus saith to them: My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, that I may perfect his work.
35ʻIkai ʻoku mou pehē, ‘Ko e māhina ʻe fā, pea hoko ʻae ututaʻu?’ Vakai, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Hanga hake homou mata, ʻo vakai ki he ngaahi ngoue; he ʻoku hina ia ki he ututaʻu.
35Do you not say, There are yet four months, and then the harvest cometh? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes, and see the countries; for they are white already to harvest.
36Pea ko ia ʻoku tuʻusi ʻoku maʻu ʻae totongi ʻo ne tānaki ʻae fua ki he moʻui taʻengata: koeʻuhi ke fiefia fakataha ʻaia ʻoku tūtuuʻi mo ia ʻoku tuʻusi.
36And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life everlasting: that both he that soweth, and he that reapeth, may rejoice together.
37Pea ʻi he meʻa ni ʻoku moʻoni ai ʻae tala ko ia, ‘ʻOku tūtuuʻi ʻe he tokotaha, kae tuʻusi ʻe ha taha kehe.’
37For in this is the saying true: That it is one man that soweth, and it is another that reapeth.
38Naʻaku fekau ʻakimoutolu ke tuʻusi ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te mou ngāue ki ai: naʻe ngāue ʻae kau tangata kehe, pea ʻoku mou maʻu ʻenau ngāue.”
38I have sent you to reap that in which you did not labour: others have laboured, and you have entered into their labours.
39¶ Pea naʻe tui kiate ia ʻae tokolahi ʻoe kakai Samēlia, ʻi he kolo ko ia, ko e meʻa ʻi he lea ʻae fefine, ʻi heʻene pehē, “Naʻa ne tala kiate au ʻae meʻa kotoa pē naʻaku fai.”
39Now of that city many of the Samaritans believed in him, for the word of the woman giving testimony: He told me all things whatsoever I have done.
40Pea ʻi he haʻu ʻae kakai Samēlia kiate ia, naʻa nau fakakolekole kiate ia ke ne nofo mo kinautolu: pea naʻe nofo ai ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ua.
40So when the Samaritans were come to him, they desired that he would tarry there. And he abode there two days.
41Pea tui ʻae tokolahi kehe ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene lea ʻaʻana;
41And many more believed in him because of his own word.
42ʻO nau pehē ki he fefine, “Ko eni ʻoku mau tui, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi hoʻo lea: he kuo mau fanongo ʻekimautolu, pea mau ʻilo ko e Kalaisi moʻoni eni, ko e Fakamoʻui ʻo māmani.”
42And they said to the woman: We now believe, not for thy saying: for we ourselves have heard him, and know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.
43¶ Pea hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe ua, naʻe ʻalu ia mei ai, ʻo fononga ki Kāleli.
43Now after two days, he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
44“Ka naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻe Sisu, ʻoku ʻikai ha palōfita ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae fakaʻapaʻapa ʻi hono fonua.”
44For Jesus himself gave testimony that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
45Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki Kāleli, naʻe maʻu ia ʻe he kakai Kāleli, he naʻa nau mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he kātoanga: he naʻa nau ʻalu foki ki he kātoanga.
45And when he was come into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things he had done at Jerusalem on the festival day; for they also went to the festival day.
46Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻa Sisu ki Kena ʻo Kāleli, naʻa ne liliu ai ʻae vai ko e uaine. Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ʻeiki naʻe mahaki hono foha ʻi Kapaneume.
46He came again therefore into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capharnaum.
47Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo kuo haʻu ʻa Sisu mei Siutea ki Kāleli, ne ne ʻalu ki ai, ʻo ne fakakolekole kiate ia ke ne ʻalu hifo, ʻo fakamoʻui hono foha: he kuo ofi ʻene mate.
47He having heard that Jesus was come from Judea into Galilee, went to him, and prayed him to come down, and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
48Pea tala ʻe Sisu, kiate ia, “Kapau ʻoku ʻikai te mou mamata ki he ngaahi fakaʻilonga, mo e meʻa fakaofo, ʻe ʻikai te mou tui.”
48Jesus therefore said to him: Unless you see signs and wonders, you believe not.
49Pea talaange ʻe he tangataʻeiki kiate ia, ʻEiki, keta ō hifo, naʻa mate hoku foha.
49The ruler saith to him: Lord, come down before that my son die.
50Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻAlu koe ʻoku moʻui ho foha.” Pea tui ʻae tangata ki he lea kuo lea ʻaki ʻe Sisu kiate ia, pea ʻalu ia.
50Jesus saith to him: Go thy way; thy son liveth. The man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went his way.
51Pea ʻi heʻene kei ʻalu, naʻe fakafetaulaki mai kiate ia ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻonau tala kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku moʻui ho foha.”
51And as he was going down, his servants met him; and they brought word, saying, that his son lived.
52Pea fehuʻi ai ia kiate kinautolu ki he feituʻulaʻā naʻe kamata moʻui ai ia. Pea nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻAneafi ʻi hono fitu ʻoe feituʻulaʻā naʻe mahuʻi ʻae mofi ʻiate ia.”
52He asked therefore of them the hour wherein he grew better. And they said to him: Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him.
53Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe he tamai ko e feituʻulaʻā pe ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sisu kiate ia, ʻOku moʻui ho foha: pea naʻe tui ai ia, pea mo hono fale kotoa pē.
53The father therefore knew, that it was at the same hour that Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth; and himself believed, and his whole house.
54Ko hono ua eni ʻoe mana naʻe fai ʻe Sisu, ʻi heʻene haʻu mei Siutea ki Kāleli.
54This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judea into Galilee.
