King James Version with Apocrypha
1Pea hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe ono, pea vaheʻi ʻe Sisu ʻa Pita, mo Semisi, mo Sione ko hono tokoua, ʻo ne ʻave ʻakinautolu pe ki ha potu moʻunga māʻolunga,
1And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2Pea naʻe liliu ia ʻi honau ʻao: pea ulo hono fofonga ʻo hangē ko e laʻā, pea hinehina hono kofu ʻo hangē ko e maama.
2And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3Pea vakai, kuo hā mai ʻa Mōsese mo ʻIlaisiā kiate kinautolu, ʻo na feleaʻaki mo ia.
3And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4Pea lea ai ʻa Pita, ʻo pehēange kia Sisu, “ʻEiki, ʻoku lelei ʻetau ʻi heni: pea kapau te ke loto ki ai , tuku ke mau ngaohi ʻi heni ha fale ʻe tolu; ke ʻoʻou ʻae taha, pea taha ʻo Mōsese, pea taha ʻo ʻIlaisiā.”
4Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5Pea lolotonga ʻene lea, ʻiloange, kuo fakamaluʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae ʻao ngingila: pea vakai, ko e leʻo mei he ʻao, naʻe pehē, “Ko hoku ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga eni ʻaia ʻoku ou fiemālie lahi ai; mou fakaongo kiate ia.”
5While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
6Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻae kau ākonga, naʻa nau tō foʻohifo ki honau mata, ʻo manavahē lahi.
6And when the disciples heard it , they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.
7Pea haʻu ʻa Sisu, ʻo ala kiate kinautolu, mo ne pehē, “Tuʻu hake, pea ʻoua ʻe manavahē.”
7And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.
8Pea ʻi he hanga hake honau mata, naʻe ʻikai te nau mamata ki ha taha, ka ko Sisu pe.
8And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.
9Pea ʻi heʻenau ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, naʻe fekau ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa tala ki ha taha ʻaia kuo hā mai, kaeʻoua ke toetuʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata mei he mate.”
9And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
10Pea fehuʻi kiate ia ʻene kau ākonga, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku pehē ai ʻe he kau tangata tohi, “ʻE tomuʻa haʻu ʻa ʻIlaisiā?”
10And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
11Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e moʻoni ʻe tomuʻa haʻu ʻa ʻIlaisiā, ʻo fakatonutonu ʻae meʻa kotoa pē.
11And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
12Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Kuo hili ʻae haʻu ʻa ʻIlaisiā, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ia, ka kuo nau fai kiate ia ʻenau faʻiteliha. ʻE mamahi pehē foki ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻiate kinautolu.”
12But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
13Pea toki ʻilo ai ʻe he kau ākonga, ko ʻene lea ia kiate kinautolu kia Sione ko e Papitaiso.
13Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
14¶ Pea kuo nau hoko atu ki he kakai, mo ʻene haʻu kiate ia ha tangata, ʻo tuʻulutui kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē,
14¶ And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
15“ʻEiki, ʻaloʻofa ki hoku foha; he ʻoku vale ia, pea mamahi lahi: pea ʻoku faʻa tō ki he afi, pea faʻa tō ki he vai.
15Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
16Pea naʻaku ʻomi ia ki hoʻo kau ākonga, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fakamoʻui ia.”
16And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
17Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange, “ʻAe toʻutangata taʻetui mo angakovi, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo ʻeku ʻiate kimoutolu? ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo ʻeku kātakiʻi ʻakimoutolu? ʻOmi ia ki heni kiate au.”
17Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
18Pea naʻe valoki ʻe Sisu ʻae tēvolo; pea ʻalu kituʻa ia ʻiate ia: pea naʻe moʻui ʻae tamasiʻi talu mei he feituʻulaʻā ko ia.
18And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
19Pea toki haʻu fakafufū pe ʻae kau ākonga kia Sisu, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā naʻe ʻikai ai te mau faʻa kapusi ia?”
19Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
20“Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou taʻetui: he ʻoku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, Kapau ʻe ʻai hoʻomou tui ʻo hangē ko e foʻi tengaʻi musita, te mou pehē ki he moʻunga ni, ‘Hiki ʻi heni ki he potu na;’ pea ʻe hiki ia: pea ʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻe taʻefaʻafai ʻekimoutolu.
20And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
21Ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻalu kituʻa ʻae faʻahinga ko ia, ka ʻi he lotu mo e ʻaukai.”
21Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
22¶ Pea ʻi heʻenau kei ʻi Kaleli, naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻE lavakiʻi ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he nima ʻae kau tangata:
22¶ And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:
23Pea te nau tāmateʻi ia, pea ʻi hono ʻaho tolu ʻe toe fokotuʻu ia.” Pea naʻe mamahi lahi ai ʻakinautolu.
23And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry.
24¶ Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko ki Kapaneume, naʻe haʻu kia Pita ʻae kau tānaki tukuhau, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai tukuhau ʻa homou ʻEiki?”
24¶ And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
25Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻIo.” Pea kuo haʻu ia ki he fale, pea taʻofi ia ʻe Sisu, ʻo pehē, “Saimone, ko e hā ho loto? ʻOku maʻu ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani ʻae totongi pe ʻae tukuhau ʻia hai? ʻI heʻenau fānau, pe mei he kakai kehe?”
25He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
26Pea talaange ʻe Pita kiate ia, “ʻI he kakai kehe.” Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Pea tā ʻoku ʻataʻatā ʻae fānau.
26Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.
27Ka ko eni telia naʻa tau fakaʻita kiate kinautolu, ʻalu koe ki tahi, ʻo taumātaʻu, ʻo toʻo ʻae ika ʻoku fuofua kai; pea ʻi hoʻo faʻai hono ngutu, te ke ʻilo ʻi ai ʻae paʻanga: ke ke toʻo ia, ʻo ʻoatu kiate kinautolu koeʻuhi ko kitaua.”
27Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
