1Naʻe ʻi ai ʻae niʻihi ʻi he kuonga ko ia, naʻa nau fakahā kiate ia ʻae kau Kāleli, ʻakinautolu naʻe hui ʻaki ʻe Pailato honau toto ʻa ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau.
1At that time some of those present told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
2Pea folofola ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou mahalo naʻe angahala lahi ʻae kau Kāleli ko ia ʻi he kakai Kāleli kotoa pē, koeʻuhi naʻe hoko ʻae meʻa pehē kiate kinautolu?
2To this He replied, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered this fate?
3ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou fakatomala, te mou malaʻia kotoa pē foki.
3No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you too will all perish.
4Pe ko e toko hongofulu ma toko valu ko ia, naʻe taʻomia ʻi he holo ʻae fale leʻo ʻo Seiloame, pea mate ai ʻakinautolu, ʻoku mou mahalo ko e kau angahala lahi taha pe ʻakinautolu ʻi he kakai fulipē naʻe nofo ʻi Selūsalema?
4Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam collapsed on them: Do you think that they were more sinful than all the others living in Jerusalem?
5ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou fakatomala, te mou malaʻia kotoa pē foki.”
5No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”
6¶ Pea naʻa ne lea ʻaki foki ʻae fakatātā ni; “Naʻe tō ʻi he ngoue vaine ʻae tangata ʻe tokotaha ʻae ʻakau ko e fiki; pea haʻu ia ʻo kumi fua mei ai, ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia .
6Then Jesus told this parable: “A man had a fig tree that was planted in his vineyard. He went to look for fruit on it, but did not find any.
7Pea toki pehē ʻe ia ki he tauhi ngoue vaine, ‘Vakai, ko e taʻu ʻe tolu kuo u haʻu ʻo kumi fua ʻi he ʻakau ko e fiki ni, kae ʻikai ʻilo ia : tā hifo ia; ko e hā ʻoku ne fakataʻeʻaonga ai ʻae kelekele?’
7So he said to the keeper of the vineyard, ‘Look, for the past three years I have come to search for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Therefore cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’
8Pea lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, ‘ʻEiki, tuku ai pe ia ʻi he taʻu ni foki, kaeʻoua ke u keli tākai, mo taufetuku ki ai .
8‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone again this year, until I dig around it and fertilize it.
9Heiʻilo ʻe toki fua ia, pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, pea ke toki tā hifo ia.’”
9If it bears fruit next year, fine. But if not, you can cut it down.’”
10¶ Pea naʻe ako ia ʻi he falelotu ʻe taha ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate.
10One Sabbath Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues,
11Pea vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ha fefine naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie fakamahaki ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma valu, pea naʻe mapelu ia ki lalo, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito ke faʻa tuʻu hake ia.
11and a woman there had been disabled by a spirit for eighteen years. She was hunched over and could not stand up straight.
12Pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻa Sisu, naʻa ne ui ia , mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Fefine, kuo veteki koe mei hoʻo mahaki.”
12When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said, “Woman, you are set free from your disability.”
13Pea ne hilifaki hono nima kiate ia; pea naʻe toki tuʻu totonu leva ia, mo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua.
13Then He placed His hands on her, and immediately she straightened up and began to glorify God.
14Pea lea ʻita ange ʻae pule ʻoe falelotu, koeʻuhi naʻe fakamoʻui ʻe Sisu ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, ʻo ne pehē ki he kakai, “ʻOku ono ʻae ʻaho ʻoku totonu ke ngāue ai ʻae kakai: ko ia mou haʻu ai ke mou moʻui, kaeʻoua ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate.”
14But the synagogue leader was indignant that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath. “There are six days for work,” he told the crowd. “So come and be healed on those days and not on the Sabbath.”
15Pea folofola ange ʻae ʻEiki, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “Ko e mālualoi koe! ʻIkai ʻoku mou taki taha vete ʻene pulu, pe ko ʻene ʻasi, mei hono tuʻunga, ʻo tataki ia ke fakainu, ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate?
15“You hypocrites!” the Lord replied. “Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or donkey from the stall and lead it to water?
16Pea ʻe ʻikai lelei ke vete ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, mei he haʻi ni, ʻae fefine ni, ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻEpalahame ʻaia kuo haʻisia ʻe Sētane, ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma valu ni?”
16Then should not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen long years, be released from her bondage on the Sabbath day?”
17Pea ʻi heʻene lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe ma hono ngaahi fili kotoa pē; kae fiefia ʻae kakai kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi meʻa ongoongolelei kotoa pē kuo ne fai.
17When Jesus said this, all His adversaries were humiliated. And the whole crowd rejoiced at all the glorious things He was doing.
18¶ Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku tatau mo e hā ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua? Pea te u fakatatau ia ki he hā?
18Then Jesus asked, “What is the kingdom of God like? To what can I compare it?
19ʻOku tatau ia mo e foʻi tengaʻi musita, naʻe toʻo ʻe ha tangata, ʻo lī ki heʻene ngoue, pea tupu ia, ʻo hoko ko e ʻakau lahi; pea nofo ai ʻae fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā ʻi hono ngaahi vaʻa.”
19It is like a mustard seed that a man tossed into his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”
20Pea toe pehē ʻe ia, “Te u fakatatau ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua ki he hā?
20Again He asked, “To what can I compare the kingdom of God?
21ʻOku tatau ia mo e meʻa fakatupu, naʻe toʻo ʻe ha fefine, ʻo fufū ʻi he fua mahoaʻa ʻe tolu, ke ʻoua ke fakatupu ʻaki kotoa pē ia.”
21It is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”
22¶ Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi he ngaahi kolo mo e potu kakai, ʻo ako, mo fononga atu ki Selūsalema.
22Then Jesus traveled throughout the towns and villages, teaching as He made His way toward Jerusalem.
23Pea toki pehē ʻe he tokotaha kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ko e tokosiʻi pe te nau moʻui?” Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu,
23“Lord,” someone asked Him, “will only a few people be saved?” Jesus answered,
24“Fai feinga ke hū ʻi he matapā fāsiʻi: he ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻE kumi ʻe he tokolahi ke hū ki ai, kae ʻikai te nau mafai.
24“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able.
25Pea ka tuʻu hake ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe fale, ʻo tāpuni ʻae matapā, pea te mou tutuʻu leva ʻi he matapā ʻituʻa, ʻo tukituki, mo pehē ai , ‘ʻEiki, ʻEiki, toʻo kiate kimautolu;’ pea ʻe lea ia, ʻo pehē mai kiate kimoutolu, ‘ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo pe ko hoʻomou haʻu mei fē:’
25After the master of the house gets up and shuts the door, you will stand outside knocking and saying, ‘Lord, open the door for us.’ But he will reply, ‘I do not know where you are from.’
26Pea te mou lea leva, ʻo pehē , ‘Naʻa mau kai mo inu ʻi ho ʻao, pea naʻa ke akonaki ʻi homau ngaahi hala.’
26Then you will say, ‘We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.’
27Ka ʻe pehē ʻe ia, ‘ʻOku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo pe ko hoʻomou haʻu mei fē; ʻalu ʻiate au ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku fai angahala.’
27And he will answer, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you evildoers.’
28ʻE ai ʻae tangi mo e fengaiʻitaki ʻoe nifo, ʻoka mou ka mamata kia ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo Sēkope, mo e kau palōfita kotoa pē, ʻi he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, ka kuo kapusi ʻakimoutolu kituaʻā.
28There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are thrown out.
29Pea te nau haʻu mei he potu hahake mo hihifo, mei he tokelau mo e tonga, mo nau nofo hifo ʻi he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.
29People will come from east and west and north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.
30Pea vakai, ʻoku ai ʻae ki mui te nau muʻomuʻa; pea ʻoku ai ʻae ki muʻa te nau muimui.”
30And indeed, some who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last.”
31¶ Pea naʻe haʻu ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae niʻihi ʻoe kau Fālesi, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻAlu koe, pea ke mole ʻi heni: he ʻoku loto ʻa Helota ke tāmateʻi koe.”
31At that very hour, some Pharisees came to Jesus and told Him, “Leave this place and get away, because Herod wants to kill You.”
32Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Mou ō, ʻo tala ki he fokisi ko ia, ‘Vakai, ko e ʻaho ni mo e ʻapongipongi ʻoku ou kapusi ai ʻae kau tēvolo, mo fai ʻae fakamoʻui, pea ʻi hono ʻaho tolu te u haohaoa.’
32But Jesus replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘Look, I will keep driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach My goal.’
33Ka ko e moʻoni teu ʻeveʻeva ʻi he ʻaho ni, mo e ʻapongipongi, mo e ʻaho ʻoku hoko mo ia : koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ha palōfita ka ʻi Selūsalema pe.
33Nevertheless, I must keep going today and tomorrow and the next day, for it is not admissible for a prophet to perish outside of Jerusalem.
34“ʻE Selūsalema, Selūsalema, ʻa Koe ʻoku ke tāmateʻi ʻae kau palōfita, mo ke lisingi ʻaki ʻae maka ʻakinautolu kuo fekau kiate koe, kuo tuʻo fiha ʻeku fie tānaki fakataha hoʻo fānau, ʻo hangē ko e tānaki ʻe he motuʻa moa hono ʻuhiki ʻi hono lalo kapakau, ka naʻe ʻikai te mou loto ki ai .
34O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those sent to her, how often I have longed to gather your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were unwilling!
35Vakai, kuo siʻaki homou fale kiate kimoutolu ke lala: pea ko ʻeku tala moʻoni kiate kimoutolu, ʻE ʻikai te mou mamata kiate au, kaeʻoua ke mou pehē, ‘ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻoku haʻu ʻi he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki.’”
35Look, your house is left to you desolate. And I tell you that you will not see Me again until you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
