1Pea ko eni, naʻe ai ha Sāpate, naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi he ngaahi ngoue uite; pea toli ʻe heʻene kau ākonga ʻae fua ʻoe uite, ʻo momosi ʻi honau nima mo nau kai.
1Now on the second Sabbath after the first, he was going through the grain fields. His disciples plucked the heads of grain and ate, rubbing them in their hands.
2Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he niʻihi ʻoe Fālesi kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou fai ai ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ngofua ke fai ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate?”
2But some of the Pharisees said to them, “Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbath day?”
3Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Naʻe ʻikai te mou lau ʻaia naʻe fai ʻe Tevita, ʻi heʻene fiekaia, mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia;
3Jesus, answering them, said, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him,
4ʻA ʻene hū ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ne toʻo ʻo kai ʻae mā ʻoe ʻao, pea ʻange foki kiate kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia; ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ngofua ke kai ai ka ko e kau taulaʻeiki pe?”
4how he entered into God’s house, and took and ate the show bread, and gave also to those who were with him, which is not lawful to eat except for the priests alone?”
5Mo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko e Foha ʻoe tangata ko e ʻEiki foki ia ʻoe Sāpate.”
5He said to them, “The Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”
6¶ Pea ʻi he hoko ki he Sāpate foki ʻe taha, naʻe hū ia ki he falelotu ʻo ako ai: pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tangata kuo mate hono nima toʻomataʻu.
6It also happened on another Sabbath that he entered into the synagogue and taught. There was a man there, and his right hand was withered.
7Pea lamasi ia ʻe he kau tangata tohi mo e kau Fālesi, pe te ne fakamoʻui ia ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate; koeʻuhi ke nau ʻilo ha meʻa ke talakoviʻi ai ia.
7The scribes and the Pharisees watched him, to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath, that they might find an accusation against him.
8Ka naʻe ʻilo ʻe ia ʻenau mahalo, pea ne pehē ki he tangata naʻe nima mate, “Tuʻu hake, ʻo tuʻu mai ki loto. Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ia, ʻo tuʻu ʻi ai .”
8But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Rise up and stand in the middle.” He arose and stood.
9Pea toki pehē atu ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Te u fehuʻi kiate kimoutolu ki he meʻa ʻe taha; Ko e hā ʻoku ngofua ke fai ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, ko e lelei pe ko e kovi! Ko e fakamoʻui pe ko e tāmateʻi?”
9Then Jesus said to them, “I will ask you something: Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill?”
10Pea naʻe vakai folia ʻe ia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, pea pehē ʻe ia ki he tangata, “Mafao atu ho nima.” Pea ne fai ia: pea moʻui hono nima ʻo hangē ko hono nima ʻe taha.
10He looked around at them all, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did, and his hand was restored as sound as the other.
11Ka naʻe mātuʻaki lili ʻakinautolu: ʻonau fakakaukau pe ko e hā te nau fai kia Sisu.
11But they were filled with rage, and talked with one another about what they might do to Jesus.
12¶ Pea pehē, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu hake ia ki ha moʻunga ke lotu, pea lotu ai pe ia ki he ʻOtua ʻi he pō ʻo ʻaho.
12In these days, he went out to the mountain to pray, and he continued all night in prayer to God.
13Pea kuo ʻaho hake, pea ne ui kiate ia ʻa ʻene kau ākonga; pea naʻa ne fili ʻiate kinautolu ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻaia foki naʻa ne fakahingoa ko e kau ʻaposetolo;
13When it was day, he called his disciples, and from them he chose twelve, whom he also named apostles:
14Ko Saimone, (naʻa ne fakahingoa ko Pita,) mo ʻAnitelū ko hono tokoua, mo Semisi, mo Sione, mo Filipe, mo Pātolomiu,
14Simon, whom he also named Peter; Andrew, his brother; James; John; Philip; Bartholomew;
15Mo Mātiu, mo Tōmasi, mo Semisi ko e foha ʻo ʻAlefiusi, mo Saimone ʻoku ui ko Selote,
15Matthew; Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus; Simon who was called the Zealot;
16Mo Siutasi ko e tokoua ʻo Semisi, mo Siutasi ʻIsikaliote, ʻaia foki ko e lavaki.
16Judas the son of James; and Judas Iscariot, who also became a traitor.
17¶ Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ia mo kinautolu, ʻo tuʻu ʻi he potu tafangafanga, fakataha mo ʻene kau ākonga, pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻaupito mei Siutea kotoa pē mo Selūsalema, mo e matātahi ʻo Taia mo Saitoni, ke nau fanongo kiate ia, mo moʻui mei honau ngaahi mahaki;
17He came down with them and stood on a level place, with a crowd of his disciples and a great number of the people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases,
18Pea mo kinautolu naʻe mamahi ʻi he kau laumālie ʻuli: pea naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
18as well as those who were troubled by unclean spirits; and they were being healed.
19Pea holi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ke nau ala kiate ia: he naʻe ʻalu ʻiate ia ʻae mālohi, ʻo fakamoʻui kotoa pē.
19All the multitude sought to touch him, for power came out of him and healed them all.
20¶ Pea tangaki hake ʻe ia hono mata ki heʻene kau ākonga, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku monūʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoku masiva; He ʻoku ʻomoutolu ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.
20He lifted up his eyes to his disciples, and said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for God’s Kingdom is yours.
21“ʻOku monūʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoku fiekaia ni: Koeʻuhi ʻe fakamākona ʻakimoutolu. ʻOku monūʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoku tangi ni: He te mou kata.
21Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.
22“ʻOku monūʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoka fehiʻa ʻae kakai kiate kimoutolu, Mo fakamavaheʻi ʻakimoutolu meiate kinautolu , ʻO taukae kiate kimoutolu , Pea lī kituʻa homou hingoa ʻo hangē ko e kovi, Koeʻuhi ko e Foha ʻoe tangata.
22Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they exclude and mock you, and throw out your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake.
23Mou fiefia ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, Pea hopohopo ʻi he fiefia: Vakai, he ʻoku lahi hoʻomou totongi ʻi he langi: He naʻe fai pehē ʻenau ngaahi tamai ki he kau palōfita.
23Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers did the same thing to the prophets.
24“Kae malaʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoku koloaʻia! He kuo mou maʻu hoʻomou fiemālie.
24“But woe to you who are rich! For you have received your consolation.
25“ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoku mākona! He te mou fiekaia. ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoku kata ni! He te mou tangi mo tangilāulau.
25Woe to you, you who are full now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.
26“ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻoka lauʻi lelei ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kakai kotoa pē! He naʻe fai pehē ʻa ʻenau ngaahi tamai ki he kau palōfita kākā.
26Woe, when men speak well of you, for their fathers did the same thing to the false prophets.
27¶ “Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu ʻoku fanongo, ʻofa ki homou ngaahi fili, fai lelei kiate kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate kimoutolu.
27“But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
28Tāpuakiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku kapeʻi ʻakimoutolu, pea hūfia ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakakoviʻi ʻakimoutolu.
28bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.
29Pea ko ia ʻoku ne sipiʻi koe ʻi ho kouʻahe ʻe taha, fulihi kiate ia ho kouʻahe ʻe taha; pea mo ia ʻoku ne ʻave ho pulupulu, ʻoua naʻa taʻofi ʻene ʻave mo ho kofutuʻa.
29To him who strikes you on the cheek, offer also the other; and from him who takes away your cloak, don’t withhold your coat also.
30Foaki kiate ia fulipē ʻoku kole kiate koe; pea ko ia ʻoku ne ʻave hoʻo koloa ʻoua naʻa toe kole ia .
30Give to everyone who asks you, and don’t ask him who takes away your goods to give them back again.
31Pea ko ia te mou loto ke fai ʻe he kakai kiate kimoutolu, ko ia pe foki te mou fai kiate kinautolu.
31“As you would like people to do to you, do exactly so to them.
32“He kapau ʻoku mou ʻofa kiate kinautolu pe ʻoku ʻofa mai kiate kimoutolu, ko e hā ʻae fakafetaʻi ʻoku mou maʻu? He ʻoku ʻofa mai ʻae kau angahala kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻofa ange kiate kinautolu.
32“If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.
33Pea kapau ʻoku mou fai lelei kiate kinautolu pe ʻoku fai lelei kiate kimoutolu, ko e hā ʻae fakafetaʻi ʻoku mou maʻu? He ʻoku fai pehē ʻe he kau angahala.
33If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
34Pea kapau ʻoku mou ʻatu meʻa kiate kinautolu pe ʻoku mou ʻamanaki ke maʻu mei ai, ko e hā ʻae fakafetaʻi te mou maʻu? He ʻoku ʻatu meʻa ʻae kau angahala ki he kau angahala, ke toe maʻu hono tatau.
34If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive back as much.
35Ka mou ʻofa ki homou ngaahi fili, pea fai lelei, mo ʻatu meʻa, ʻi he taʻeʻamanaki ke toe maʻu; pea ʻe lahi ai hoʻomou totongi pea ʻe ui ʻakimoutolu ko e fānau ʻae Fungani Māʻolunga: he ʻoku angalelei ia ki he taʻefakafetaʻi pea mo e kovi.
35But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing back; and your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.
36Ko ia mou manavaʻofa, ʻo hangē foki ko e manavaʻofa ʻa hoʻomou Tamai.
36“Therefore be merciful, even as your Father is also merciful.
37“ʻOua ʻe fakamaau, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamaauʻi ʻakimoutolu: ʻoua naʻa fakahalaia, pea ʻe ʻikai fakahalaia ʻakimoutolu: mou fakamolemole, pea ʻe fakamolemolea ʻakimoutolu:
37Don’t judge, and you won’t be judged. Don’t condemn, and you won’t be condemned. Set free, and you will be set free.
38Foaki, pea ʻe foaki ia kiate kimoutolu; ko e fua lahi, kuo faʻo lolo hifo, ʻo lulu fakataha, pea fonu mahuohua, ʻe ʻatu ki homou fatafata. He ko e fuofua ko ia te mou fua ʻaki, ʻe toe fua ʻaki ia kiate kimoutolu.”
38“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be given to you. For with the same measure you measure it will be measured back to you.”
39Pea naʻa ne lea ʻaki ʻae fakatātā kiate kinautolu, “ʻE faʻa taki ʻe he kui ʻae kui? ʻIkai te na tō fakatouʻosi ki he luo?”
39He spoke a parable to them. “Can the blind guide the blind? Won’t they both fall into a pit?
40ʻOku ʻikai lahi hake ʻae ākonga ʻi heʻene akonaki: ka ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku haohaoa ʻe hangē ia ko ʻene akonaki.
40A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher.
41“Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke tokanga ai ki he malamalaʻi ʻakau ʻi he mata ʻo ho kāinga, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo ʻae fuʻu ʻakau ʻoku ʻi ho mata?
41Why do you see the speck of chaff that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye?
42Pea ʻe fēfē haʻo faʻa pehē ki ho kāinga, ‘Kāinga, tuku mai ke u toʻo ʻae malamalaʻi ʻakau ʻoku ʻi ho mata,’ ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo ʻae fuʻu ʻakau ʻoku ʻi ho mata? Ko e mālualoi koe, tomuʻa lī ʻae fuʻu ʻakau mei ho mata, pea te ke toki ʻilo totonu ke toʻo mai ʻae malamalaʻi ʻakau mei he mata ʻo ho kāinga.
42Or how can you tell your brother, ‘Brother, let me remove the speck of chaff that is in your eye,’ when you yourself don’t see the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck of chaff that is in your brother’s eye.
43“He ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻakau lelei ʻe tupu ai ʻae fua kovi; pe ha ʻakau kovi ʻe tupu ai ʻae fua lelei.
43“For there is no good tree that produces rotten fruit, nor again a rotten tree that produces good fruit.
44He ʻoku ʻilo ʻae ʻakau kotoa pē ʻi hono fua ʻoʻona. He ʻoku ʻikai toli ʻe he kakai ʻae fiki ʻi he ʻakau talatala, pe ko e fua ʻoe vaine ʻi he talatalaʻāmoa.
44For each tree is known by its own fruit. For people don’t gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.
45ʻOku ʻomi ʻe he tangata angalelei ʻaia ʻoku lelei mei he koloa lelei ʻi hono loto; pea ʻoku ʻomi ʻe he tangata angakovi ʻaia ʻoku kovi mei he koloa kovi ʻi hono loto: he ʻoku lea ʻa hono ngutu mei he meʻa lahi ʻoe loto.
45The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.
46¶ “Pea ko e hā ʻoku mou ui ai au, ‘ʻEiki, ʻEiki,’ kae ʻikai fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ou tala?
46“Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do the things which I say?
47Pea ko ia fulipē ʻoku haʻu kiate au, ʻo fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea, mo fai ki ai, te u fakahā kiate kimoutolu hono tatau:
47Everyone who comes to me, and hears my words and does them, I will show you who he is like.
48ʻOku tatau ia mo e tangata naʻe langa ʻae fale, pea keli māʻulalo, ʻo ne ai hono tuʻunga ki he funga maka ; pea ʻi he tupu ʻae vaitafe, pea ʻoho mālohi ʻae vai ki he fale ko ia, naʻe ʻikai ngaue ia; he naʻe fokotuʻu ia ki he maka.
48He is like a man building a house, who dug and went deep and laid a foundation on the rock. When a flood arose, the stream broke against that house, and could not shake it, because it was founded on the rock.
49Ka ko ia ʻoku fanongo, kae ʻikai fai ki ai , ʻoku tatau ia mo e tangata naʻe langa ʻae fale ʻi he kelekele taʻehatuʻunga; pea naʻe ʻoho mālohi ʻae vai ki ai, pea holo leva ia; pea ko e maumau ʻoe fale ko ia ko e meʻa lahi.”
49But he who hears and doesn’t do, is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream broke, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.”
