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.
1And there were present, at that very time, some that told him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled 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?
2And he answering, said to them: Think you that these Galileans were sinners above all the men of Galilee, because they suffered such things?
3ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou fakatomala, te mou malaʻia kotoa pē foki.
3No, I say to you: but unless you shall do penance, you shall all likewise 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 upon whom the tower fell in Siloe, and slew them: think you, that they also were debtors above all the men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
5ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou fakatomala, te mou malaʻia kotoa pē foki.”
5No, I say to you; but except you do penance, you shall all likewise 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 .
6He spoke also this parable: A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.
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?’
7And he said to the dresser of the vineyard: Behold, for these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. Cut it done therefore: why cumbereth it the ground?
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 .
8But he answering, said to him: Lord, let it alone this year also, until I dig about it, and dung it.
9Heiʻilo ʻe toki fua ia, pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, pea ke toki tā hifo ia.’”
9And if happily it bear fruit: but if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.
10¶ Pea naʻe ako ia ʻi he falelotu ʻe taha ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate.
10And he was teaching in their synagogue on their sabbath.
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 behold there was a woman, who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years: and she was bowed together, neither could she look upwards at all.
12Pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻa Sisu, naʻa ne ui ia , mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Fefine, kuo veteki koe mei hoʻo mahaki.”
12Whom when Jesus saw, he called her unto him, and said to her: Woman, thou art delivered from thy infirmity.
13Pea ne hilifaki hono nima kiate ia; pea naʻe toki tuʻu totonu leva ia, mo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua.
13And he laid his hands upon her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified 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.”
14And the ruler of the synagogue (being angry that Jesus had healed on the sabbath) answering, said to the multitude: Six days there are wherein you ought to work. In them therefore come, and be healed; and not on the sabbath day.
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?
15And the Lord answering him, said: Ye hypocrites, doth not every one of you, on the sabbath day, loose his ox or his ass from the manger, and lead them 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?”
16And ought not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond 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.
17And when he said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the things that were gloriously done by him.
18¶ Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku tatau mo e hā ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua? Pea te u fakatatau ia ki he hā?
18He said therefore: To what is the kingdom of God like, and whereunto shall I resemble 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 to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and cast into his garden, and it grew and became a great tree, and the birds of the air lodged in the branches thereof.
20Pea toe pehē ʻe ia, “Te u fakatatau ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua ki he hā?
20And again he said: Whereunto shall I esteem the kingdom of God to be like?
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 to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
22¶ Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi he ngaahi kolo mo e potu kakai, ʻo ako, mo fononga atu ki Selūsalema.
22And he went through the cities and towns teaching, and making his journey to Jerusalem.
23Pea toki pehē ʻe he tokotaha kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ko e tokosiʻi pe te nau moʻui?” Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu,
23And a certain man said to him: Lord, are they few that are saved? But he said to them:
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.
24Strive to enter by the narrow gate; for many, I say to you, shall seek to enter, and shall 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:’
25But when the master of the house shall be gone in, and shall shut the door, you shall begin to stand without, and knock at the door, saying: Lord, open to us. And he answering, shall say to you: I know you not, whence you are.
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 shall begin to say: We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast 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 shall say to you: I know you not, whence you are: depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
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 shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust 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.
29And there shall come from the east and the west, and the north and the south; and shall sit down 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 behold, they are last that shall be first; and they are first that shall 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.”
31The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee.
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.’
32And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I am consummated.
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 walk today and tomorrow, and the day following, because it cannot be that a prophet perish, out 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 .
34Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent to thee, how often would I have gathered thy children as the bird doth her brood under her wings, and thou wouldest not?
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.’”
35Behold your house shall be left to you desolate. And I say to you, that you shall not see me till the time come, when you shall say: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
