King James Version with Apocrypha
1Hili eni, naʻe folau ʻa Sisu ʻi he tahi ʻo Kāleli, ʻaia ʻoku ʻo Taipiliō.
1After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.
2Pea muimui ʻiate ia ʻae fuʻu kakai, koeʻuhi naʻa nau mamata ki he ngaahi mana naʻa ne fai kiate kinautolu naʻe mahaki.
2And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Sisu ki ha moʻunga, pea nofo ai ia mo ʻene kau ākonga.
3And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4Pea naʻe ofi ʻae Lakaatu, ko e kātoanga ʻae kakai Siu.
4And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5¶ Pea hanga hake ʻe Sisu hono fofonga, ʻo mamata ki he fuʻu tokolahi ʻoku haʻu kiate ia, pea lea ia kia Filipe, “Te tau fakatau ʻae mā mei fē, ke kai ʻekinautolu ni?”
5¶ When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6Pea naʻa ne lea ʻaki eni ko e ʻahiʻahi kiate ia: he naʻa ne ʻilo ʻe ia ʻaia te ne fai.
6And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7Pea talaange ʻe Filipe kiate ia, “Ko e mā ki he tenali ʻe uangeau, ʻe ʻikai lahi kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi ke nau taki taha ha konga siʻi.”
7Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8Pea ko ʻene ākonga ʻe tokotaha, ko ʻAnitelū, ko e tokoua ʻo Saimone Pita, naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia,
8One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
9“ʻOku ʻi heni ʻae tama, ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae foʻi mā paʻale ʻe nima, mo e ika siʻi ʻe ua: ka ko e hā ia ʻi he fuʻu tokolahi?”
9There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10Pea tala ʻe Sisu, “Pule ke nofo ki lalo ʻae kau tangata.” Pea naʻe mohukuʻia ʻae potu. Pea nofo ki lalo ʻae kau tangata, naʻa nau toko nima afe nai.
10And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Sisu ʻae mā; pea ne fakafetaʻi, pea tufa ia ki he kau ākonga, kae tufaki ʻe he kau ākonga kiate kinautolu naʻe nofo; pea tufaki mo e ika ke ʻoua ke nau fiu.
11And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12Pea kuo mākona ʻakinautolu, pea tala ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Tānaki hono toenga, kaeʻoua naʻa liʻaki ha meʻa.”
12When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13Ko ia naʻa nau tānaki ia, ʻo fakafonu ʻae kato ʻe hongofulu ma ua, ʻi he toenga mā paʻale ʻe nima, ka kuo hili ʻae kai ʻae kakai.
13Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
14Pea ʻi he mamata ʻe he kau tangata ko ia ki he mana kuo fai ʻe Sisu, naʻa nau pehē, “Tā ko e moʻoni ko eni ʻae palōfita naʻe pehē ʻe haʻu ki māmani.”
14Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
15¶ Pea kuo ʻilo ʻe Sisu te nau haʻu ʻo puke fakamālohi ia, ke fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi, naʻa ne toe ʻalu tokotaha pe ki ha moʻunga.
15¶ When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
16Pea kuo hoko ʻae efiafi, naʻe ʻalu ʻene kau ākonga ki tahi,
16And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
17ʻO heka vaka, pea taumuʻa ki Kapaneume. Pea kuo poʻuli, ka ʻoku teʻeki hoko mai ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu.
17And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18Pea naʻe tō ʻae fuʻu matangi pea peaua ʻae tahi.
18And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
19Pea hili ʻenau ʻaʻalo ʻi he maile ʻe tolu mo e toe, naʻa nau mamata kia Sisu ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he tahi, mo ʻunuʻunu mai ki he vaka: pea naʻa nau manavahē.
19So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
20Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ‘Ko au pe; ʻoua ʻe manavahē.’
20But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21Pea naʻa nau maʻu loto fiefia ia ki he vaka; pea tau leva ʻae vaka ki he fonua naʻa nau folau ki ai.
21Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.
22¶ Pea ko e ʻaho naʻa na feholoi, ʻi he mamata ʻae kakai naʻe tutuʻu ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha, naʻe ʻikai ha vaka ʻi ai ka ko ia pe naʻe heka ai ʻene kau ākonga, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻalu ʻa Sisu ki he vaka mo ʻene kau ākonga, ka naʻe folau ʻa ʻene kau ākonga pe;
22¶ The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
23(Ka naʻe haʻu ʻae ngaahi vaka kehe mei Taipiliō, ʻo ofi ki he potu naʻa nau kai mā ai, ʻi he hili ʻae fakafetaʻi ʻe he ʻEiki:)
23(Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
24Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kakai ʻoku ʻikai ʻi ai ʻa Sisu, pe ko ʻene kau ākonga, naʻa nau heka vaka, pea haʻu ki Kapaneume, ʻo kumi ʻa Sisu.
24When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
25Pea ʻi heʻenau ʻilo ia ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha, naʻa nau fehuʻi kiate ia, Lāpai, naʻa ke haʻu ʻanefē ki heni?
25And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
26Pea leaange ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ʻikai te mou kumi au, koeʻuhi ko hoʻomou mamata ki he ngaahi mana, ka ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou kai ʻi he ngaahi foʻi mā, pea mākona.
26Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
27ʻOua ʻe ngāue ki he meʻakai ʻoku ʻauha, ka ki he meʻakai ʻoku tolonga ki he moʻui taʻengata, ʻaia ʻe foaki ʻe he Foha ʻoe tangata kiate kimoutolu: he kuo fakaʻilonga ia ʻe he ʻOtua ko e Tamai.”
27Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
28Pea naʻa nau fehuʻi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻoku totonu ke mau fai ki he ʻOtua?”
28Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
29Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko eni ʻae ngāue ki he ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke mou tui kiate ia kuo ne fekau.”
29Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
30Pea naʻa nau pehē ai kiate ia, “Ko e hā ha fakaʻilonga ʻoku ke fai, koeʻuhi ke mau mamata, kae tui kiate koe? Ko e hā ʻoku ke fai?
30They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31Naʻe kai ʻae mana ʻe heʻemau ngaahi tamai ʻi he toafa; ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi, ‘Naʻe foaki ʻe ia ʻae mā mei he langi kiate kinautolu ke nau kai.’”
31Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
32Pea lea ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, naʻe ʻikai foaki ʻe Mōsese ʻae mā ko ia mei he langi kiate kimoutolu; ka ʻoku foaki ʻe heʻeku Tamai ʻae mā moʻoni mei he langi kiate kimoutolu.
32Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
33He ko ia ʻae mā ʻae ʻOtua ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu hifo mei he langi, ʻo foaki ʻae moʻui ki māmani.”
33For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
34Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, foaki maʻuaipē ʻae mā ni kiate kimautolu.”
34Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
35Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ko au ko e mā ʻoe moʻui: ko ia ʻoku haʻu kiate au, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fiekaia; pea ko ia ʻoku tui kiate au, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fieinu ia.
35And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
36Ka naʻaku tala kiate kimoutolu, Kuo mou mamata foki kiate au, kae ʻikai tui.
36But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
37Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku foaki ʻe he Tamai kiate au, ʻe haʻu ia kiate au; pea ko ia ʻoku haʻu kiate au, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito teu siʻaki.
37All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
38Naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu hifo mei he langi ke fai hoku loto ʻoʻoku, ka ko e finangalo ʻo ia naʻa ne fekauʻi au.
38For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39Pea ko e finangalo eni ʻoe Tamai naʻa ne fekau au, koeʻuhi ko ia kotoa pē kuo ne foaki kiate au, ke ʻoua naʻa mole ha tokotaha, kae fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻaho fakamui.
39And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40Pea ko e finangalo eni ʻo ia naʻa ne fekau au, koeʻuhi ko ia fulipē ʻoku mamata ki he ʻAlo, pea tui kiate ia, ke ne maʻu ʻae moʻui taʻengata; pea te u fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻaho fakamui.”
40And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
41Pea naʻe lāunga ai ʻae kakai Siu kiate ia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene pehē, “Ko au ko e mā naʻe ʻalu hifo mei he langi.”
41The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
42Pea naʻa nau pehē, “ʻIkai ko Sisu eni, ko e foha ʻo Siosefa, ko e tamai mo e faʻē ʻaʻana ʻoku tau ʻilo? Pea ʻoku fēfeeʻi ʻene pehē, Naʻaku ʻalu hifo mei he langi?”
42And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
43Ko ia naʻe leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua te mou felāungaʻaki ʻiate kimoutolu.
43Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
44ʻE ʻikai ha tangata ʻe faʻa haʻu kiate au, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai tohoaki ia ʻe he Tamai ʻaia naʻa ne fekauʻi au: pea te u fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻaho fakamui.
44No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
45Kuo tohi ʻi he kau palōfita, ‘Pea ʻe akonekina ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻi he ʻOtua.’ Ko ia ko e tangata kotoa pē kuo fanongo, pea kuo akonekina ʻi he Tamai, ʻoku haʻu ia kiate au.
45It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.
46ʻOku ʻikai ha tangata kuo ne mamata ki he Tamai: ka ko ia pe ʻoku mei he ʻOtua, kuo mamata ia ki he Tamai.
46Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
47Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻoku tui kiate au, ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae moʻui taʻengata.
47Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
48Ko au ko e mā ko ia ʻoe moʻui.
48I am that bread of life.
49Naʻe kai ʻae mana ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ʻi he toafa, ka naʻa nau mate.
49Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
50Ko eni ʻae mā ʻoku ʻalu hifo mei he langi, ʻaia ʻoku kai ʻe ha tangata, pea ʻikai mate.
50This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
51Ko au ko e mā moʻui kuo ʻalu hifo mei he langi: kapau ʻe kai ʻe ha tangata ʻae mā ni, ʻe moʻui taʻengata ia: pea ko e mā ʻoku ou foaki ko hoku sino, ʻaia te u foaki ke moʻui ai ʻa māmani.”
51I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
52Ko ia naʻe fakakikihi ai ʻae kakai Siu ʻiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻE faʻa foaki fēfeeʻi ʻe he tangata ni hono sino ke tau kai?”
52The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
53Pea lea ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou kai ʻae sino ʻoe Foha ʻoe tangata, mo inu hono toto, ʻoku ʻikai ha moʻui ʻiate kimoutolu.
53Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
54Ko ia ʻoku ne kai hoku sino, mo inu hoku toto, ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae moʻui taʻengata; pea te u fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻaho fakamui.
54Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
55He ko hoku sino ko e meʻakai moʻoni, pea ko hoku toto ko e inu moʻoni.
55For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56Ko ia ʻoku kai hoku sino, mo inu hoku toto, ʻoku nofo ia ʻiate au, mo au ʻiate ia.
56He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
57ʻO hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻae Tamai naʻa ne fekau au, pea ʻoku ou moʻui ʻi he Tamai: ʻoku pehē, ko ia ʻoku ne kai ʻiate au, ko ia pe ʻe moʻui ʻiate au.
57As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
58Ko eni ʻae mā ko ia naʻe ʻalu hifo mei he langi: ʻo ʻikai tatau mo e kai ʻae mana ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, pea nau mate: ko ia ʻoku kai ʻae mā ni, ʻe moʻui ia ʻo taʻengata.”
58This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
59¶ Naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻi he falelotu, ʻi heʻene akonaki ʻi Kapaneume.
59These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻene kau ākonga tokolahi, naʻa nau pehē, “Ko e lea faingataʻa eni: ko hai ʻoku faʻa ʻilo ia?”
60Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this , said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
61Pea ʻilo ʻe Sisu ʻiate ia ʻoku lāunga ai ʻene kau ākonga, pea lea ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku tūkia ʻakimoutolu ʻi he meʻa ni?
61When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
62Pea ʻe fēfē ʻoka mou ka mamata ki he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻoku ʻalu hake ki he potu naʻe ʻi ai ia ʻi muʻa?
62What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
63Ko e laumālie ia ʻoku ne fakamoʻui; ʻoku ʻikai hano ʻaonga ʻoe sino: ko e lea ʻoku ou lea ʻaki kiate kimoutolu, ko e laumālie ia pea mo e moʻui.
63It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
64Ka ʻoku ai homou niʻihi ʻoku ʻikai tui. He naʻe ʻilo ʻe Sisu mei he kamataʻanga ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai tui, mo ia te ne lavakiʻi ia.
64But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
65ʻO ne pehē, “Ko ia ne u pehē ai kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai faʻa haʻu ha tangata kiate au, ka ʻi hono foaki kiate ia mei heʻeku Tamai.”
65And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
66¶ Pea talu mei ai naʻe foki ki mui ʻae tokolahi ʻo ʻene kau ākonga, ʻo ʻikai toe ʻalu mo ia.
66¶ From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
67Pea lea ai ʻa Sisu ki he toko hongofulu ma toko ua, “ʻE ʻalu mo kimoutolu foki?
67Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68Pea leaange ʻa Saimone Pita kiate ia, “ʻEiki, te mau ʻalu kia hai? ʻOku ʻiate koe ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe moʻui taʻengata.
68Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
69Pea ʻoku mau tui pea ʻilo pau ko koe ko e Kalaisi, ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua moʻui.”
69And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
70Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai naʻaku fili ʻakimoutolu ko e toko hongofulu ma toko ua, pea ko homou tokotaha ko e tēvolo?”
70Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71Ko ʻene lea ia kia Siutasi ʻIsikaliote, ko e foha ʻo Saimone: he ko ia te ne lavakiʻi ia, ko e taha ia ʻoe toko hongofulu ma toko ua.
71He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.
