1Pea hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe ua, pea hoko ʻa e kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu, mo e mā taʻemeʻafakatupu: pea naʻe kumi ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau tangata tohi pe fēfeeʻi ʻenau moʻua ia ʻi he kākā, ke tāmateʻi.
1Now the feast of the pasch, and of the Azymes was after two days; and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might by some wile lay hold on him, and kill him.
2Ka naʻa nau pehē, “Kae ʻikai ʻi he kātoanga, telia naʻa ai ha maveuveu ʻae kakai.”
2But they said: Not on the festival day, lest there should be a tumult among the people.
3¶ Pea naʻe ʻi Pētani ia, ʻi he fale ʻo Saimone ko e kilia, pea ʻi heʻene nofo ʻo kai, naʻe haʻu ʻae fefine mo e puha ʻalapasita ʻoe lolo ko e naʻati moʻoni ʻoku mahuʻinga lahi; pea ne foaʻi ʻae puha, mo lilingi ki hono fofonga.
3And when he was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper, and was at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of precious spikenard: and breaking the alabaster box, she poured it out upon his head.
4Pea naʻe ai ʻae niʻihi naʻa nau loto ʻita, ʻonau pehē, “Ko e hā kuo maumauʻi ai ʻae lolo?
4Now there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said: Why was this waste of the ointment made?
5He naʻe faingofua ke fakatauʻaki ia ʻae tenali ʻe tolungeau tupu, pea foaki ki he masiva.” Pea nau lāunga kiate ia.
5For this ointment might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
6Pea pehē ʻe Sisu, “Tuku ai pe ia; ko e hā ʻoku mou fakamamahiʻi ai ia? Kuo fai ʻe ia ʻae ngāue lelei kiate au.
6But Jesus said: Let her alone, why do you molest her? She hath wrought a good work upon me.
7He ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu maʻuaipē ʻae masiva, pea ka mou ka loto ki ai ʻoku mou faʻa fai lelei kiate kinautolu; kae ʻikai teu ʻiate kimoutolu maʻuaipē au.
7For the poor you have always with you: and whensoever you will, you may do them good: but me you have not always.
8Kuo ne fai ʻaia ʻoku ne faʻa fai: kuo tomuʻa haʻu ia ke tākai hoku sino ki hono tanu.
8She hath done what she could: she is come beforehand to anoint my body for burial.
9Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko e potu ʻo māmani kotoa pē ʻe malangaʻaki ai ʻae ongoongolelei ni, ʻe fakahā ʻi ai foki mo ia kuo ne fai ko hono fakamanatuʻi.”
9Amen, I say to you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which she hath done, shall be told for a memorial of her.
10¶ Pea ko e tokotaha ʻoe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ko Siutasi ʻIsikaliote, naʻa ne ʻalu ki he kau taulaʻeiki lahi, ke lavakiʻi ia kiate kinautolu.
10And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests, to betray him to them.
11Pea ʻi heʻenau fanongo ki ai, naʻa nau fiefia, ʻo fakaʻilo paʻanga kiate ia. Pea lamasi ʻe ia ke tuʻumālie ʻene lavakiʻi ia.
11Who hearing it were glad; and they promised him they would give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
12¶ Pea ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe mā taʻemeʻafakatupu, ʻi heʻenau tāmateʻi ʻa e feilaulau ʻoe Lakaatu, pea pehē ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, “Ko e potu fē ʻoku ke loto ke mau ʻalu ʻo teuteu ai, koeʻuhi ke ke kai ʻi he kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu?”
12Now on the first day of the unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the pasch, the disciples say to him: Whither wilt thou that we go, and prepare for thee to eat the pasch?
13Pea fekau atu ʻe ia ʻae toko ua ʻi heʻene kau ākonga, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinaua, “Mo ō ki he kolo, pea ʻe fakafetaulaki mai kiate kimoua ʻae tangata ʻoku ne fua ʻae ipu vai: muimui ʻiate ia.
13And he sendeth two of his disciples, and saith to them: Go ye into the city; and there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water, follow him;
14Pea ko e fale ko ia ʻe hū ki ai ia, mo pehē ai ki he ʻeiki ʻoe fale, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Kofaʻā ʻae potu fale, ʻaia teu kai ai mo ʻeku kau ākonga ʻi he kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu.”’
14And whithersoever he shall go in, say to the master of the house, The master saith, Where is my refectory, where I may eat the pasch with my disciples?
15Pea ʻe fakahā ʻe ia kiate kimoua ʻae potu lahi ki ʻolunga, kuo ngaohi mo teuteu: mo teuteu ʻi ai maʻatautolu.”
15And he will shew you a large dining room furnished; and there prepare ye for us.
16Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻene ongo ākonga, ʻo na hū ki he kolo, pea na ʻilo ʻo hangē ko ʻene lea kiate kinaua: pea na teuteu ai ʻa e feilaulau ʻoe Lakaatu.
16And his disciples went their way, and came into the city; and they found as he had told them, and they prepared the pasch.
17Pea ʻi he efiafi naʻa ne haʻu mo e toko hongofulu ma toko ua.
17And when evening was come, he cometh with the twelve.
18Pea ʻi heʻenau nofo ʻo kai, naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Ko homou tokotaha ʻoku tau keinanga te ne lavakiʻi au.”
18And when they were at table and eating, Jesus saith: Amen I say to you, one of you that eateth with me shall betray me.
19Pea naʻa nau mamahi leva, mo nau taki taha pehē kiate ia, “Ko au ia?” Pea pehē ʻe ha taha, “Ko au ia?”
19But they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by one: Is it I?
20Pea lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e tokotaha ʻi he toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻoku mā ala mo au ki he ipu.
20Who saith to them: One of the twelve, who dippeth with me his hand in the dish.
21Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻalu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi kiate ia: ka ʻe malaʻia ʻae tangata ko ia ʻaia ʻoku ne lavakiʻi ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata! Naʻe lelei ki he tangata ko ia ʻo ka ne ʻikai fanauʻi ia.”
21And the Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed. It were better for him, if that man had not been born.
22¶ Pea ʻi heʻenau kai, naʻe toʻo ʻe Sisu ʻae mā, ʻo ne tāpuaki, mo tofitofi, pea ne ʻatu kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne pehē, “Toʻo, ʻo kai: ko eni hoku sino.”
22And whilst they were eating, Jesus took bread; and blessing, broke, and gave to them, and said: Take ye. This is my body.
23Pea toʻo ʻe ia ʻae ipu inu, pea hili ʻene fakafetaʻi, naʻa ne ʻatu kiate kinautolu: pea naʻa nau inu mei ai kotoa pē.
23And having taken the chalice, giving thanks, he gave it to them. And they all drank of it.
24Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko hoku toto eni ʻoe fuakava foʻou, ʻaia ʻoku lilingi koeʻuhi ko e tokolahi.
24And he said to them: This is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many.
25Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻE ʻikai te u toe inu ʻi he fua ʻoe vaine, kaeʻoua ke hokosia ʻae ʻaho ko ia te u inu foʻou ai ia ʻi he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
25Amen I say to you, that I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it new in the kingdom of God.
26¶ Pea kuo hili ʻenau fasi hiva, naʻa nau ʻalu atu ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOlive.
26And when they had said an hymn, they went forth to the mount of Olives.
27Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻE tūkia ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻi he poōni ʻiate au: he kuo tohi, ‘Te u taaʻi ʻae tauhi, pea ʻe movetevete ai ʻae fanga sipi.’
27And Jesus saith to them: You will all be scandalized in my regard this night; for it is written, I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep shall be dispersed.
28“Kae hili ʻeku toetuʻu, te u muʻomuʻa ʻiate kimoutolu ki Kāleli.”
28But after I shall be risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
29Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Pita kiate ia, “Kapau ʻe tūkia kotoa pē, ka e ʻikai te u pehē au.”
29But Peter saith to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, yet not I.
30Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate koe, Ko e ʻaho ni, ʻio, ʻi he pō ko eni, ʻe teʻeki ai ʻuʻua ʻae moa ʻo tuʻo ua, ka e liunga tolu hoʻo fakafisi ʻiate au.”
30And Jesus saith to him: Amen I say to thee, today, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shall deny me thrice.
31Ka naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻene lea fakamātoato, “Kapau te u mate ai mo koe, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te u fakafisiʻi koe.” Pea naʻe lea pehē foki ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
31But he spoke the more vehemently: Although I should die together with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner also said they all.
32Pea naʻa nau hoko ki he potu naʻe hingoa ko Ketisemani: pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Mou nonofo ʻi heni, kaeʻoua ke u lotu.”
32And they came to a farm called Gethsemani. And he saith to his disciples: Sit you here, while I pray.
33Pea ne ʻave ʻe ia ʻa Pita mo Semisi mo Sione, pea kamata ilifia lahi, mo māfasia lahi ʻaupito;
33And he taketh Peter and James and John with him; and he began to fear and to be heavy.
34Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mamahi lahi ʻaupito ʻo hangē ka mate hoku laumālie: mou tatali ʻi heni, pea leʻo.”
34And he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death; stay you here, and watch.
35Pea ʻalu siʻi atu ia, ʻo tō fakafoʻohifo ki he kelekele, pea ne kole, ʻo kapau ʻe faʻa fai, pea laka ʻae feituʻu pō ko ia ʻiate ia.
35And when he was gone forward a little, he fell flat on the ground; and he prayed, that if it might be, the hour might pass from him.
36Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻApā, Tamai, ʻoku faʻa fai ʻe koe ʻae meʻa kotoa pē; ke ke ʻave ʻae ipu ni ʻiate au: kaeʻoua naʻaku faʻiteliha au, ka ko koe pe.”
36And he saith: Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee: remove this chalice from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt.
37Pea haʻu ia, ʻo ne ʻilo kuo nau mohe, pea pehē ʻe ia kia Pita, “Saimone, ʻoku ke mohe ʻa koe? ʻE ʻikai te ke faʻa leʻo ʻe koe ʻi he feituʻu pō ʻe taha?
37And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping. And he saith to Peter: Simon, sleepest thou? couldst thou not watch one hour?
38Mou leʻo pea lotu, telia naʻa lavaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ʻahiʻahi. Ko e moʻoni ʻoku fie fai ʻe he laumālie, ka ʻoku vaivai ʻae kakano.”
38Watch ye, and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
39Pea toe ʻalu atu ia, ʻo lotu, ʻo ne fai pe ʻae lea ko ia.
39A going away again, he prayed, saying the same words.
40Pea ʻi heʻene haʻu, naʻa ne ʻilo ʻenau toe mohe, (he naʻe māfasia honau mata,) pea ʻikai te nau ʻilo pe ko e hā te nau lea ʻaki kiate ia.
40And when he returned, he found them again asleep, (for their eyes were heavy,) and they knew not what to answer him.
41Pea haʻu ia ko hono liunga tolu, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Maʻu pe hoʻomou mohe, pea mālōlō: kuo lahi ia, kuo hokosia ʻae feituʻu pō: vakai, kuo lavakiʻi ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he nima ʻoe kau angahala.
41And he cometh the third time, and saith to them: Sleep ye now, and take your rest. It is enough: the hour is come: behold the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.
42Tuʻu hake, ke tau ʻalu; vakai, ʻoku ʻi heni ia ʻoku ne lavakiʻi au.”
42Rise up, let us go. Behold, he that will betray me is at hand.
43¶ Pea lolotonga ʻene lea, mo ʻene haʻu ʻa Siutasi, ko e tokotaha ʻoe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, pea mo e fuʻu kakai mo ia, mo e ngaahi heletā mo e ngaahi ʻakau, mei he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau tangata tohi pea mo e mātuʻa.
43And while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients.
44Pea ko ia naʻe lavakiʻi ia kuo ne tuku ʻae fakaʻilonga kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne pehē, “Ka ʻilonga ʻaia teu ʻuma ki ai, ko ia ia: puke ia, ʻo tataki atu.”
44And he that betrayed him, had given them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; lay hold on him, and lead him away carefully.
45Pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai, pea ne ʻalu leva kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻEiki, ʻeiki;” pea ʻuma kiate ia.
45And when he was come, immediately going up to him, he saith: Hail, Rabbi; and he kissed him.
46¶ Pea naʻa nau ala honau nima kiate ia, ʻo puke ia.
46But they laid hands on him, and held him.
47Pea ko e tokotaha ʻiate kinautolu naʻe tutuʻu ʻi ai , naʻa ne unuhi ʻae heletā, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻo motuhi hono telinga.
47An one of them that stood by, drawing a sword, struck a servant of the chief priest, and cut off his ear.
48Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “He kuo mou omi ke puke au, mo e ngaahi heletā mo e ngaahi ʻakau, ʻo hangē ha kaihaʻa?
48And Jesus answering, said to them: Are you come out as to a robber, with swords and staves to apprehend me?
49Naʻaku ʻi he falelotu lahi mo kimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo akonaki, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou puke au: ka kuo pau ke fakamoʻoni ʻae ngaahi tohi.”
49I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you did not lay hands on me. But that the scriptures may be fulfilled.
50Pea naʻe liʻaki ia ʻekinautolu kotoa pē, ka nau feholaki.
50Then his disciples leaving him, all fled away.
51Pea naʻe muimui ʻiate ia ʻae talavou ʻe tokotaha, kuo vala ʻaki ʻae tupenu pea naʻe puke ia ʻe he kau talavou:
51And a certain young man followed him, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and they laid hold on him.
52Pea siʻaki ʻe ia ʻae tupenu, kae hola telefua ʻiate kinautolu.
52But he, casting off the linen cloth, fled from them naked.
53¶ Pea naʻa nau tataki atu ʻa Sisu ki he taulaʻeiki lahi: pea naʻe fakataha mo ia ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi kotoa pē mo e mātuʻa mo e kau tangata tohi.
53And they brought Jesus to the high priest; and all the priests and the scribes and the ancients assembled together.
54Pea muimui mamaʻo atu kiate ia ʻa Pita, ki he fale ʻoe taulaʻeiki lahi: pea nofo ia mo e kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻo ne mumū ʻi he afi.
54And Peter followed him from afar off, even into the court of the high priest; and he sat with the servants at the fire, and warmed himself.
55Pea kumi ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau fakamaau kotoa pē, ʻae fakamoʻoni kia Sisu, ke nau tāmateʻi ai ia; ka naʻe ʻikai maʻu.
55And the chief priests and all the council sought for evidence against Jesus, that they might put him to death, and found none.
56He naʻe fakamoʻoni loi kiate ia ʻae tokolahi, ka naʻe ʻikai fai tatau ʻa ʻenau fakamoʻoni.
56For many bore false witness against him, and their evidences were not agreeing.
57Pea tuʻu hake ʻae niʻihi, ʻonau fakamoʻoni loi kiate ia, ʻo pehē,
57And some rising up, bore false witness against him, saying:
58“Naʻa mau fanongo ki heʻene pehē, ‘Te u veteki ʻae falelotu lahi ni kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae nima, pea ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu langa ha taha kehe, kae ʻikai ʻaki ʻae nima.’”
58We heard him say, I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another not made with hands.
59Ka naʻe ʻikai fai tatau foki ʻenau fakamoʻoni.
59And their witness did not agree.
60Pea tuʻu hake ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi ʻi he haʻohaʻonga, ʻo ne fehuʻi kia Sisu, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te ke lea ki ai ? Ko e hā eni ʻoku fakamoʻoni ʻekinautolu ni kiate koe?”
60And the high priest rising up in the midst, asked Jesus, saying: Answerest thou nothing to the things that are laid to thy charge by these men?
61Ka naʻe longo pē ia, ʻo ʻikai siʻi lea. Pea toe fehuʻi ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko koe ko e Kalaisi, ko e ʻAlo ʻoe Monūʻia?”
61But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said to him: Art thou the Christ the Son of the blessed God?
62Pea pehē ʻe Sisu, “Ko au ia: pea te mou mamata ki he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻoku nofo ia ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe māfimafi, pea mo ʻene haʻu mo e ngaahi ʻao ʻoe langi.”
62And Jesus said to him: I am. And you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming with the clouds of heaven.
63Pea toki haehae ʻe he taulaʻeiki lahi hono kofu, ʻo pehē, “He koeʻumaʻā mo ha kau fakamoʻoni kehe?
63Then the high priest rending his garments, saith: What need we any further witnesses?
64Kuo mou fanongo ki he lea fie ʻOtua: ko e hā homou loto?” Pea nau loto taha kotoa pē ʻe totonu ke mate.
64You have heard the blasphemy. What think you? Who all condemned him to be guilty of death.
65Pea kamata ʻaʻanu ʻae niʻihi kiate ia, pea ke ʻufiʻufi hono mata, ʻo taaʻi ia, pea nau pehē kiate ia, “Kikite!” Pea sipiʻi ia ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaki honau ʻaofinima.
65And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him: Prophesy: and the servants struck him with the palms of their hands.
66¶ Pea ʻi he kei nofo ʻa Pita ʻi he fale ʻi lalo, ne haʻu ʻae fefine kaunanga ʻe taha ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi:
66Now when Peter was in the court below, there cometh one of the maidservants of the high priest.
67Pea ʻi heʻene mamata kia Pita ʻoku ne mumū, naʻa ne sio kiate ia, mo ne pehē, “Ta ko koe foki naʻa ke ʻia Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti.”
67And when she had seen Peter warming himself, looking on him she saith: Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.
68Ka naʻe fakafisi ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo ia , pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku ke lea ʻaki.” Pea ʻalu ia ki he fale ʻituʻa; pea ʻuʻua ʻae moa.
68But he denied, saying: I neither know nor understand what thou sayest. And he went forth before the court; and the cock crew.
69Pea toe mamata kiate ia ʻae fefine kaunanga, pea kamata pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu naʻe tutuʻu ʻi ai, ko e taha eni ʻokinautolu.
69And again a maidservant seeing him, began to say to the standers by: This is one of them.
70Pea toe fakafisi ia. Pea fuoloa siʻi, pea toe pehē ʻekinautolu naʻe tutuʻu ʻi ai kia Pita, “Ko e moʻoni ko e taha koe ʻakinautolu; he ko e Kāleli koe, pea ʻoku tatau mo ia hoʻo lea.”
70But he denied again. And after a while they that stood by said again to Peter: Surely thou art one of them; for thou art also a Galilean.
71Ka naʻe kamata kape ia mo fuakava, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻae tangata ni ʻoku mou lea ki ai.”
71But he began to curse and to swear, saying; I know not this man of whom you speak.
72Pea naʻe ʻuʻua ʻae moa ko hono liunga ua. Pea manatu ʻa Pita ki he lea ʻaia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻE teʻeki ai liunga ua ʻae ʻuʻua ʻae moa, kae liunga tolu hoʻo fakafisi ʻiate au.” Pea ʻi heʻene manatu ki ai , naʻa ne tangi.
72And immediately the cock crew again. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus had said unto him: Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt thrice deny me. And he began to weep.
