King James Version with Apocrypha
1Pea haʻu kiate ia ʻae kau Fālesi mo e Sātusi, ʻo ʻahiʻahiʻi ia ʻi heʻenau holi ke ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ha fakaʻilonga mei he langi.
1The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
2Pea lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “ʻOka efiafi, ʻoku mou pehē, ‘ʻE ʻafua he ʻoku kulokula ʻae langi.’
2He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3Pea pongipongi ai, ‘ʻE ʻalotāmaki ʻae ʻaho ni, he ʻoku kulokula mo fetautauʻi ʻae langi.’ ʻAe kau mālualoi! ʻOku mou faʻa ʻilo ki he mata ʻoe langi; ka ʻe ʻikai te mou faʻa ʻilo ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻoe kuonga ni ?
3And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
4Ko e toʻutangata angakovi mo feʻauaki ʻoku kumi ʻae fakaʻilonga; pea ʻe ʻikai ha fakaʻilonga ʻe ʻoatu ki ai, ka ko e fakaʻilonga pe ʻoe palōfita ko Siona.” Pea tukuange ʻe ia ʻakinautolu, kae ʻalu.
4A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
5Pea kuo hoko ʻene kau ākonga ki he kauvai ʻe taha, kuo ngalo ʻiate kinautolu ke ʻomi ʻae mā.
5And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6¶ Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Mou vakai telia ʻae meʻa fakatupu ʻae kau Fālesi pea mo e Satusi.”
6¶ Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
7Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki ʻo pehē, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai te tau ʻomi ha mā.”
7And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
8Pea kuo ʻilo ʻe Sisu, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻAkimoutolu ʻoku siʻi hoʻomou tui, ko e hā ʻoku mou fealēleaʻaki ai, ʻi hoʻomou taʻeʻomi ha mā?
8Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
9ʻOku ʻikai te mou ʻilo, pe manatu ki he foʻi mā ʻe nima ki he toko nima afe, mo e kato ʻe fiha naʻa mou ʻave?
9Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
10Pe ki he foʻi mā ʻe fitu ki he toko fā afe, mo e kato ʻe fiha naʻa mou ʻave?
10Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
11Ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai ai te mou ʻilo naʻe ʻikai ko e lea ki he mā ʻa ʻeku pehē kiate kimoutolu, Mou vakai telia ʻae meʻa fakatupu ʻae kau Fālesi pea mo e Sātusi?”
11How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12Pea ne nau toki ʻilo naʻe ʻikai ko ʻene tala ke nau vakai telia ʻae meʻa fakatupu ʻoe mā, ka ko e akonaki ʻae kau Fālesi mo e kau Sātusi.
12Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
13¶ Pea ʻi he hoko ʻa Sisu ki he potu ʻo Sesalia ʻi Filipai, naʻe fehuʻi ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe he kakai pe ko hai au ko e Foha ʻoe tangata?”
13¶ When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14Pea nau pehē, “ ʻOku lea ʻae niʻihi, ko Sione ko e Papitaiso; ko e niʻihi, ko ʻIlaisiā; mo e niʻihi, ko Selemaia, pe ha taha ʻoe kau palōfita.”
14And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ka ʻoku pehē ʻekimoutolu ko hai au?”
15He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16Pea lea ʻa Saimone Pita, ʻo pehēange, “Ko koe ko e Kalaisi, ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua moʻui.”
16And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “Saimone Pāsiona, ʻoku ke monūʻia: he naʻe ʻikai fakahā ia kiate koe ʻe he kakano mo e toto, ka ko ʻeku Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi.
17And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18Pea ʻoku ou tala atu foki kiate koe, Ko Pita koe, pea te u langa hoku siasi ki he maka ni; pea ʻe ʻikai lavaʻi ia ʻe he ngaahi matapā ʻo hētesi.
18And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19Pea te u ʻoatu kiate koe ʻae kī ʻoe puleʻanga ʻoe langi: pea ko ia kotoa pē te ke nonoʻo ʻi māmani, ʻe nonoʻo ia ʻi he langi; pea ko ia te ke veteki ʻi māmani, ʻe veteki ia ʻi he langi.”
19And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
20Pea naʻa ne toki fekau ki heʻene kau ākonga, ke ʻoua naʻa nau fakahā ki ha tokotaha ko Sisu ia ko e Kalaisi.
20Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
21¶ Pea talu mei he ʻaho ko ia naʻe kamata fakahā ai ʻe Sisu ki heʻene kau ākonga, “ʻE ʻalu ia ki Selūsalema, pea ne kātaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi ʻi he kau mātuʻa, mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau tangata tohi, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ia, pea toe fokotuʻu ʻi hono ʻaho tolu.”
21¶ From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22Ka ka ʻave ia ʻe Pita, ʻo kamata valokiʻi ia, ʻo pehē, “Ke mamaʻo ia ʻiate koe, ʻEiki: ʻe ʻikai hoko eni kiate koe.”
22Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23Ka naʻe tafoki ia, ʻo ne pehē kia Pita, “ʻAlu ki hoku tuʻa, Sētane: ko e fakahala koe kiate au: he ʻoku ʻikai te ke leleiʻia ʻi he meʻa ʻae ʻOtua, ka ʻi he meʻa ʻae tangata.”
23But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
24¶ Pea toki pehē ai ʻe Sisu ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Kapau ʻe muimui ha taha ʻiate au, tuku ke ne liʻaki ʻe ia ia, pea toʻo hake ʻene ʻakau māfasia ʻo muimui ʻiate au.
24¶ Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25He ko ia ʻe kalofaki ʻene moʻui, ʻe mole ia: pea ko ia ʻe mole ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko au, te ne maʻu ia.
25For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26He ko e hā hono ʻaonga ki he tangata, ʻo kapau te ne maʻu ʻa māmani kotoa pē, kae mole ai hono laumālie ʻoʻona; pe ko e hā ʻe foaki ʻe ha tangata ke fetongi ʻaki hono laumālie?
26For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27He ko e Foha ʻoe tangata ʻe haʻu ia ʻi he nāunau ʻo ʻene Tamai mo ʻene kau ʻāngelo; pea te ne toki totongi ai ki he tangata kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene ngāue.
27For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku tutuʻu ʻae niʻihi ʻi heni, ʻe ʻikai te nau kamata ʻae mate, kaeʻoua ke nau vakai ki he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻoku haʻu ʻi hono puleʻanga.”
28Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
