1Pea naʻe tataki ʻa Sisu ʻe he Laumālie ki he toafa ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ia ʻe he tēvolo.
1Then Jesus was led by the spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the devil.
2Pea hili ʻene ʻaukai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu, naʻe toki fiekaia ia.
2And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he was hungry.
3Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae ʻahiʻahi kiate ia, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Kapau ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua, fekau ki he ngaahi maka ni ke liliu ko e mā.”
3And the tempter coming said to him: If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
4Ka naʻe lea ia, ʻo pehēange, “Kuo tohi, ‘ʻE ʻikai moʻui ʻae tangata ʻi he mā pe, ka ʻi he folofola kotoa pē ʻoku haʻu mei he ʻOtua.’”
4Who answered and said: It is written, Not in bread alone doth man live, but in every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.
5Pea toki ʻohake ia ʻe he tēvolo ki he kolo tapu, ʻo tuku ia ki he tuʻa falelotu lahi,
5Then the devil took him up into the holy city, and set him upon the pinnacle of the temple,
6ʻO ne pehē kiate ia, “Kapau ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua, fakato koe ki lalo: he kuo tohi, ‘ʻE fekau ʻe ia ʻene kau ʻāngelo ke nau vakai koe: pea ʻe hapahapai koe, telia naʻa touʻia ho vaʻe ʻi he maka.’”
6And said to him: If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down, for it is written: That he hath given his angels charge over thee, and in their hands shall they bear thee up, lest perhaps thou dash thy foot against a stone.
7Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Kuo tohi foki, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke ʻahiʻahi ki he ʻEiki ko ho ʻOtua.’”
7Jesus said to him: It is written again: Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
8Pea toe ʻohake ia ʻe he tēvolo ki he moʻunga māʻolunga ʻaupito, ʻo ne fakahā kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, mo honau lelei;
8Again the devil took him up into a very high mountain, and shewed him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them,
9ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Te u ʻatu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē moʻou, ʻo kapau te ke fakatōmapeʻe ʻo hū kiate au.”
9And said to him: All these will I give thee, if falling down thou wilt adore me.
10Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻi heni, Sētane: he kuo tohi, ‘Ke ke hū ki he ʻEiki ko ho ʻOtua, pea ko ia pe te ke tauhi.’”
10Then Jesus saith to him: Begone, Satan: for it is written, The Lord thy God shalt thou adore, and him only shalt thou serve.
11Pea toki ʻalu ʻae tēvolo ʻiate ia, pea ʻiloange, kuo haʻu ʻae kau ʻāngelo ʻo tauhi ia.
11Then the devil left him; and behold angels came and ministered to him.
12¶ Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Sisu kuo tuku ʻa Sione ki he fale fakapōpula, naʻe ʻalu ia ki Kaleli;
12And when Jesus had heard that John was delivered up, he retired into Galilee:
13Pea mahuʻi ia mei Nāsaleti, pea ʻalu ʻo nofo ʻi Kapaneume, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he matātahi, ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe fonua ʻo Sepulone mo Nafitalai:
13And leaving the city Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capharnaum on the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim;
14Koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ʻaia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe he palōfita ko ʻIsaia, ʻo pehē,
14That it might be fulfilled which was said by Isaias the prophet:
15“Ko e fonua ʻo Sepulone, mo e fonua ʻo Nafitalai, ʻi he potu ki tahi, ʻituʻa Sioatani, ko Kaleli ʻoe Senitaile,
15Land of Zabulon and land of Nephthalim, the way of the sea beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:
16Ko e kakai naʻe nofo ʻi he poʻuli, kuo mamata ki he maama lahi; pea kuo tupu hake ʻae maama kiate kinautolu naʻe nofo ʻi he teleʻa mo e ʻata ʻoe mate.”
16The people that sat in darkness, hath seen great light: and to them that sat in the region of the shadow of death, light is sprung up.
17¶ Pea naʻe fua malanga ʻa Sisu ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ʻo pehē, “Mou fakatomala, he ʻoku ofi ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi.”
17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Do penance, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
18¶ Pea ʻi he hāʻele ʻa Sisu ʻo ofi ki he tahi ʻo Kaleli, naʻe mamata ia ki he ongo kāinga, ko Saimone naʻe ui ko Pita, mo ʻAnitelū ko hono tokoua, ʻoku na lafo kupenga ki tahi: he ko e ongo toutai ika ʻakinaua.
18And Jesus walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers).
19Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “Muimui ʻiate au, pea te u ngaohi ʻakimoua ko e toutai tangata.”
19And he saith to them: Come ye after me, and I will make you to be fishers of men.
20Pea naʻa na liʻaki leva hona kupenga, ʻo muimui ʻiate ia.
20And they immediately leaving their nets, followed him.
21Pea ʻalu ia mei ai, pea ne mamata ki he ongo kāinga kehe, ko Semisi ko e foha ʻo Sepeti, mo Sione ko hono tokoua, ʻi he vaka mo ʻena tamai ko Sepeti, ʻo pena honau kupenga; pea ne ui ʻakinaua.
21And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets: and he called them.
22Pea naʻa na liʻaki leva ʻae vaka mo ʻena tamai, ka na muimui ʻiate ia.
22And they forthwith left their nets and father, and followed him.
23¶ Pea ʻalu ʻa Sisu ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻo Kaleli, ʻo akonaki ʻi honau ngaahi falelotu, pea malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ʻoe puleʻanga, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻae mahaki kehekehe kotoa pē, mo e hangatāmaki kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he kakai.
23And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom: and healing all manner of sickness and every infirmity, among the people.
24Pea mafola atu hono ongoongo ʻi Silia kotoa pē: pea nau ʻomi kiate ia ʻae kakai mahaki kotoa pē, naʻe tuʻia ʻi he mahaki kehekehe mo e ngaahi feinga mamahi, mo e niʻihi naʻe ʻulusino ai ʻae ngaahi tēvolo, mo kinautolu naʻe vale, mo kinautolu naʻe mahaki tete; pea ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
24And his fame went throughout all Syria, and they presented to him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and such as were possessed by devils, and lunatics, and those that had palsy, and he cured them:
25Pea naʻe muimui ʻiate ia ʻae kakai lahi ʻaupito mei Kaleli, mo Tikapolusi, mo Selūsalema, mo Siutea, pea mo e kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani.
25And much people followed him from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.
