1Naʻe liu mai ʻa Sisu mei Sioatani, kuo fonu ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, pea naʻe tataki ia ʻe he Laumālie ki he toafa.
1Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
2Pea ʻahiʻahiʻi ia ʻe he tēvolo ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu. Pea ko e ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻikai te ne kai ai ha meʻa: pea hili ia, naʻa ne fiekaia.
2where for forty days He was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.
3Pea pehē ʻe he tēvolo kiate ia, “Kapau ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua, fekau ki he maka ni ke liliu ko e mā.”
3The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”
4Pea leaange ʻa Sisu kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Kuo tohi, ‘ʻE ʻikai moʻui ʻae tangata ʻi he mā pe, ka ʻi he folofola kotoa pē ʻae ʻOtua.’”
4But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”
5Pea naʻe ʻave ia ʻe he tēvolo ki he moʻunga māʻolunga, ʻo fakahā fakafokifā pe kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
5Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.
6Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tēvolo kiate ia, “Te u ʻatu moʻou ʻae mālohi ni kotoa pē, mo hono nāunau: he kuo tuku mai ia kiate au; pea ʻoku ou foaki ia ko ʻeku faʻiteliha.
6“I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory,” he said. “For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish.
7Ko ia kapau te ke hū kiate au, ʻe ʻoʻou ia kotoa pē.”
7So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”
8Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Sētane, ke ke ʻalu ki hoku tuʻa; he kuo tohi, ‘Ke ke hū kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea ko ia pe te ke tauhi.’”
8But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”
9Pea ne ʻomi ia ki Selūsalema, ʻo ne tuku ia ki he tuʻa falelotu lahi, pea pehē kiate ia, “Kapau ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua, fakatō koe ʻi heni ki lalo:
9Then the devil led Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down from here.
10He kuo tohi, ‘ʻE fekau ʻe ia ʻene kau ʻāngelo kiate koe, ke nau tauhiʻi koe;
10For it is written: ‘He will command His angels concerning You to guard You carefully;
11Pea, ‘Te nau hapahapai koe, telia naʻa touʻia ho vaʻe ʻi ha maka.’”
11and they will lift You up in their hands, so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”
12Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ka kuo pehē, ‘ʻOua te ke ʻahiʻahi kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.’”
12But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
13Pea kuo fakaʻosi ʻe he tēvolo ʻae ʻahiʻahi kotoa pē, naʻe ʻalu ia ʻiate ia ʻo fuoloa siʻi .
13When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.
14¶ Pea foki atu ʻa Sisu ki Kāleli, ʻi he mālohi ʻoe Laumālie: pea naʻe mafola hono ongoongo ki he potu fonua ko ia kotoa pē.
14Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news about Him spread throughout the surrounding region.
15Pea ako ia ʻi honau ngaahi falelotu, pea fakamālō ai ʻae kakai fulipē.
15He taught in their synagogues and was glorified by everyone.
16Pea haʻu ia ki Nāsaleti, ʻaia naʻe tupu ai ia: pea hū ia ki he falelotu ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, ʻo hangē ko ʻene faʻa fai, pea tuʻu hake ke lautohi.
16Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read,
17Pea naʻe ʻatu kiate ia ʻae tohi ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia. Pea ʻi heʻene folahi ʻae tohi, naʻa ne ʻilo ʻae potu kuo tohi ai, ʻo pehē ,
17the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written:
18“ʻOku ʻiate au ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova, Koeʻuhi kuo ne fakanofo au ke u malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ki he masiva; Kuo ne fekau au ke fakamoʻui ʻae loto mafesi, Ke malangaʻaki ʻae huhuʻi ki he kau pōpula, Mo e fakaʻā ʻoe kui, Ke veteange ʻakinautolu kuo lavea,
18“The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,
19Ke malangaʻaki ʻae taʻu lelei ʻo Sihova.”
19to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
20Pea ne takai ʻe ia ʻae tohi, ʻo ʻange ki he tauhi, pea nofo hifo. Pea sio fakamamaʻu kiate ia ʻae mata ʻokinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he falelotu.
20Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on Him,
21Pea ne fua lea ia kiate kinautolu, “Kuo fakamoʻoni ʻi he ʻaho ni ʻae tohi ko eni ʻi homou telinga.”
21and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”
22Pea naʻa nau fakamālō kotoa pē kiate ia, ʻonau ofo ʻi he ngaahi lea mālie naʻe ʻalu atu ʻi hono fofonga. Pea naʻa nau pehē, “ʻIkai ko e foha eni ʻo Siosefa?”
22All spoke well of Him and marveled at the gracious words that came from His lips. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they asked.
23Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ka ko e moʻoni te mou lea ʻaki ʻae fakatātā ni kiate au, ‘Faitoʻo, fakamoʻui koe:’ pea ko ia kotoa pē kuo mau fanongo kuo fai ʻi Kapaneume, fai foki ʻi heni ʻi ho fonua.”
23Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”
24Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai ha palōfita ʻe ʻofeina ʻi hono fonua.
24Then He added, “Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
25Ka ʻoku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, naʻe tokolahi ʻae fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻIlaisiā, ʻi he lolotonga ʻae tāpuni ʻoe langi, ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu mo e māhina ʻe ono, pea naʻe honge lahi ʻae fonua kotoa;
25But I tell you truthfully that there were many widows in Israel in the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and great famine swept over all the land.
26Ka naʻe ʻikai fekau ʻa ʻIlaisiā ki ha taha ʻiate kinautolu, ka ki he fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti ʻi Salepita ʻi Saitoni.
26Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to the widow of Zarephath in Sidon.
27Pea naʻe tokolahi ʻae kilia ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻi he kuonga ʻo ʻIlaisiā ko e palōfita; ka naʻe ʻikai ke fakamaʻa ha taha ʻiate kinautolu, ka ko Neamani ko e Silia.”
27And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet. Yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”
28Pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he falelotu, naʻa nau mātuʻaki lili ʻi heʻenau fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa ni,
28On hearing this, all the people in the synagogue were enraged.
29ʻO nau tutuʻu, pea kapusi ia kituaʻā kolo, ʻo tataki ia ki he matanga ʻoe moʻunga ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ai ʻenau kolo, koeʻuhi ke nau lī ia ʻi he lilifa ki lalo.
29They got up, drove Him out of the town, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw Him over the cliff.
30Ka naʻe ʻalu ia mei honau lotolotonga, pea mole atu ia,
30But Jesus passed through the crowd and went on His way.
31ʻO ne ʻalu hifo ki Kapaneume, ko e kolo ʻo Kāleli, ʻo ne ako kiate kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho Sāpate.
31Then He went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath He began to teach the people.
32Pea naʻa nau ofo ʻi heʻene akonaki he naʻe lea ia ʻi he mālohi.
32They were astonished at His teaching, because His message had authority.
33¶ Pea naʻe ʻi he falelotu ʻae tangata, naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie ʻoe tēvolo ʻuli, pea naʻe kalanga ia, ʻo leʻo lahi,
33In the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon. He cried out in a loud voice,
34ʻO pehē, “ʻE Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti, tuku ai pe; ko e hā ʻakimautolu kiate koe? Kuo ke haʻu ke fakaʻauha ʻakimautolu? ʻOku ou ʻilo koe; ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻoe ʻOtua.”
34“Ha! What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”
35Pea lolomi ia ʻe Sisu, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke fakalongo pe, pea ke haʻu kituʻa ʻiate ia.” Pea kuo lī ʻae tangata ʻe he tēvolo ki he haʻohaʻonga pea haʻu ia kituʻa ʻiate ia, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne fakamamahi kiate ia.
35But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!” At this, the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without harming him.
36Pea naʻa nau ofo lahi ai kotoa pē, ʻonau fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā ʻae akonaki ni! He ʻoku ne fekau ʻi he pule mo e mālohi ki he kau laumālie ʻuli, pea ʻoku nau haʻu kituʻa.”
36All the people were overcome with amazement and asked one another, “What is this message? With authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
37Pea naʻe mafola hono ongoongo ki he potu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua ko ia.
37And the news about Jesus spread throughout the surrounding region.
38¶ Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ia, mei he falelotu, ʻo hū ki he fale ʻo Saimone. Pea ko e faʻē ʻae uaifi ʻo Saimone kuo pukea ʻi he mofi lahi; pea naʻa nau kole kiate ia koeʻuhi ko ia.
38After Jesus had left the synagogue, He went to the home of Simon, whose mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever. So they appealed to Jesus on her behalf,
39Pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake kiate ia, ʻo taʻofi ʻae mofi, pea mahuʻi ia: ka ka tuʻu leva ia, ʻo tauhi ʻakinautolu.
39and He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. And she got up at once and began to serve them.
40¶ Pea kuo tō ʻae laʻā, pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ai haʻanau mahaki ʻi he mahaki kehekehe, naʻe ʻomi ʻakinautolu kiate ia; pea ne hilifaki hono nima kiate kinautolu taki taha, ʻo fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
40At sunset, all who were ill with various diseases were brought to Jesus, and laying His hands on each one, He healed them.
41Pea haʻu kituʻa ʻae kau tēvolo mei he tokolahi, ʻonau kalanga, ʻo pehē, “Ko koe ʻae Kalaisi ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua.” Pea ne lolomi ʻakinautolu ke ʻoua ʻe fakahā ʻoku nau ʻilo ia ko e Kalaisi.
41Demons also came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But He rebuked the demons and would not allow them to speak, because they knew He was the Christ.
42Pea kuo ʻaho, pea ʻalu ia, ʻo nofo ʻi ha potu lala: pea kumi ia ʻe he kakai, ʻonau omi kiate ia, pea naʻa nau taʻofia ia, ke ʻoua naʻa ne ʻalu ʻiate kinautolu.
42At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place, and the crowds were looking for Him. They came to Him and tried to keep Him from leaving.
43Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku totonu ke u malangaʻaki ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua ki he ngaahi kolo kehe foki he ko ia kuo fekau ai au.”
43But Jesus told them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, because that is why I was sent.”
44Pea malanga ʻe ia ʻi he ngaahi falelotu ʻo Kāleli.
44And He continued to preach in the synagogues of Judea.
