1ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Sione ko e Papitaiso, ʻo malanga ʻi he toafa ʻo Siutea,
1I A mau la la i hele mai ai o Ioane Bapetite, e ao ana ma ka waonahele i Iudea, i ka i ana ae,
2ʻo pehē, “Mou fakatomala: he ʻoku ofi ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi.”
2E mihi oukou, no ka mea, ua kokoke mai nei ke aupuni o ka lani.
3He ko eni ia naʻe lea ki ai ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e leʻo ʻoe tokotaha ʻoku kalanga ʻi he toafa, ‘Mou teuteu ʻae hala ʻoe ʻEiki, fakatonutonu hono ngaahi ʻaluʻanga.’”
3Oia no ka mea i oleloia mai e ke kaula e Isaia, i ka i ana mai, Ka leo o ka mea e kala ana ma ka waonahele, E hoomakaukau oukou i alanui no Iehova, e hana i kona mau kuamoo i pololei.
4Pea naʻe kofu ʻae Sione ko ia ʻaki ʻae fulufuluʻi kāmeli, mo e noʻo kiliʻi manu ʻi hono noʻotanga vala; pea ko ʻene meʻakai, ko e heʻe mo e meʻa huʻamelie ʻoe vao.
4Ua aahu iho la o ua Ioane la i ke kapa hulu kamelo, a he kaei ili ma kona puhaka; a he uhini kaua ai, a me ka meli o ka nahelehele.
5Pea naʻe toki ʻalu kiate ia ʻa Selūsalema, mo Siutea kotoa pē, mo e potu fonua kotoa pē naʻe tuʻu ofi ki Sioatani,
5Alaila, hele aku la ko Ierusalema a me ko Iudea a pau io na la, a me ko na wahi a pau e kokoke ana ma Ioredane.
6Ke papitaiso ʻiate ia ʻi Sioatani, ʻo vete ʻenau ngaahi angahala.
6A bapetizoia iho la lakou e ia iloko o Ioredane, me ka hai ana mai i ko lakou hewa.
7¶ Ka ʻi heʻene mamata kuo haʻu ʻae tokolahi ʻoe Fālesi mo e Sātusi ki heʻene papitaiso, naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻAe fānau ʻae ngata fekai, ko hai naʻa ne valoki ʻakimoutolu ke puna mei he houhau ʻe haʻu?
7A ike aku la ia, he nui na Parisaio a me na Sadukaio i hele mai e bapetizoia'i e ia, i aku la oia ia lakou, E ka hanauna moonihoawa, nawai oukou i ao aku e holo i pakele ai i ka iuaina e kau mai ana?
8Ko ia mou fakahā ʻae ngaahi fua ʻoku ngali mo e fakatomala:
8E hua ae oukou i ka hua e ku i ka mihi.
9Pea ʻoua te mou pehē ʻi homou loto, ‘Ko ʻemau tamai ʻa ʻEpalahame:’ he ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku faʻa fai ʻe he ʻOtua ke fakatupu ʻi he ngaahi maka ni ʻae fānau kia ʻEpalahame.
9Mai manao oukou e ohumu iloko o oukou iho, o Aberahama ko kakou kupuna; no ka mea, ke i aku nei au ia oukou, e hiki no i ke Akua ke hoala ae mai keia mau pohaku mai i poe mamo na Aberahama.
10Pea ko eni, kuo tuku ʻae toki ki he tefito ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau: ko ia, ko e ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai tupu ai ʻae fua lelei, ʻe tā hifo ia, pea laku ki he afi.
10Ano hoi, ke waiho nei ke koi lipi ma ke kumu o na laau, a o kela laau o keia laau e hua ole mai ana i ka hua maikai, e kua ia ilalo a e kiolaia'ku ia i ke ahi.
11Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou papitaiso ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae vai ki he fakatomala: ka ko ia ʻoku muimui ʻiate au ʻoku lahi ia ʻiate au, ʻoku ʻikai taau mo au ke u toʻo hono topuvaʻe: pea ʻe papitaiso ʻe ia ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni mo e afi.
11Owau no ke bapetizo aku nei ia oukou i ka wai, no ka mihi; aka, o ka mea e hele mai ana mahope o'u, he nui aku kona mana i ko'u, aole au e pono ke lawe i kona mau kamaa; nana oukou e bapetizo aku i ka Uhane Hemolele a me ke ahi.
12ʻOku ʻi hono nima ʻa hono ī, pea te ne fakamaʻa ʻaupito hono hahaʻanga, ʻo tānaki ʻa hono uite ki he feleoko; ka ʻe tutu ʻe ia ʻae kafukafu ʻaki ʻae afi taʻemate.”
12Aia no ma kona lima kana peahi, a e hoomaemae pono ana ia i kana huaai; a e hoiliili hoi ia i kana palaoa iloko o ka hale papaa, a e hoopau aku i ka opala i ke ahi pio ole.
13¶ Pea toki haʻu ʻa Sisu mei Kaleli ki Sioatani kia Sione, ke papitaiso ʻiate ia.
13Alaila, hele mai la o Iesu, mai Galilaia mai i Ioredaue io Ioane la, e bapetizoia'i e ia.
14Ka naʻe taʻofi ia ʻe Sione, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ngali mo au ke u papitaiso ʻiate koe, pea ʻoku ke haʻu kiate au?”
14Hoole aku la o Ioane ia ia, i aku ia, Owau kau e bapetizo mai e pono ai; a ke hele mai nei anei oe io'u nei?
15Pea lea ʻa Sisu kiate ia, ʻo pehēange, “Tuku ke fai eni: he ʻoku taau mo kitautolu ke fai ki he māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē.” Pea ne toki tuku ke fai ia.
15Olelo mai la o Iesu, i mai la ia ia, E ae mai oe ano, no ka mea, pela kaua e pono ai ke malama i ka pono a pau: alaila, ae aku la kela ia ia.
16Pea kuo papitaiso ʻa Sisu, naʻe ʻalu hake leva ia mei he vai; pea vakai, kuo mavaeua ʻae langi kiate ia, pea mamata ia ki he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku maliu hifo ʻo hangē ko e lupe, ʻo tuʻu mai kiate ia:
16A bapetizoia o Iesu, alaila, pii koke mai la ia mai ka wai mai; aia hoi, hamama ae la ka lani nona, a ikea aku la ka Uhane o ke Akua e iho mai ana me ho mainu nunu la, a kau iho la maluna iho ona.
17Pea ʻiloange, ko e leʻo mei he langi, naʻe pehē, “Ko hoku ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga eni, ʻaia ʻoku ou fiemālie lahi ai.”
17Aia hoi, he leo mai ka lani mai, e i mai ana, O ka'u Keiki punahele keia, ka mea a'u i olioli loa ai.
