1Pea hili ʻae ngaahi ʻaho pea toe ʻalu ia ki Kapaneume; pea kuo ongo atu ʻoku ʻi he fale ia.
1And again he entered into Capharnaum after some days.
2Pea fakataha leva ʻae fuʻu tokolahi, naʻe ʻikai ke faʻa hao ʻi he fale , pe ofi ki he matapā: pea malangaʻaki ʻe ia ʻae folofola kiate kinautolu.
2And it was heard that he was in the house, and many came together, so that there was no room; no, not even at the door; and he spoke to them the word.
3Pea naʻe ʻomi mo kinautolu kiate ia ʻae tokotaha naʻe mahaki tete, ʻaia naʻe fata ʻe he toko fā.
3And they came to him, bringing one sick of the palsy, who was carried by four.
4Pea ʻi he ʻikai te nau faʻa hao ʻo ofi kiate ia koeʻuhi ko e kakai, naʻa nau tatala ʻae ʻato ʻoe fale naʻe ʻi ai ia: pea kuo haeʻi ia, naʻa nau tukutuku hifo ʻae mohenga naʻe tokoto ai ʻae mahaki tete.
4And when they could not offer him unto him for the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was; and opening it, they let down the bed wherein the man sick of the palsy lay.
5Pea kuo mamata ʻa Sisu ki heʻenau tui, pea pehē ʻe ia ki he mahaki tete, “Foha, kuo fakamolemole hoʻo ngaahi angahala.”
5And when Jesus had seen their faith, he saith to the sick of the palsy: Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
6Ka naʻe nofo ai ʻae niʻihi ʻoe kau tangata tohi, ʻonau fifili ʻi honau loto, ʻo pehē ,
6And there were some of the scribes sitting there, and thinking in their hearts:
7“Ko e hā ʻoku lea fie ʻOtua pehē ai ʻae tangata ni? Ko hai ʻe faʻa fakamolemole ʻae angahala ka ko e ʻOtua pe?”
7Why doth this man speak thus? he blasphemeth. Who can forgive sins, but God only?
8Pea kuo ʻiloʻi leva ʻe Sisu ʻi hono loto ʻoku pehē ʻenau fifili ʻi honau loto, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou fifili ai ʻi homou loto ki he ngaahi meʻa ni?
8Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit, that they so thought within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your hearts?
9He ʻoku faingofua ʻa fē, ʻae lea ʻaki ki he mahaki tete, ‘Kuo fakamolemole hoʻo ngaahi angahala;’ pe ko e lea, ‘Tuʻu hake, ʻo toʻo ho mohenga, mo ke ʻalu?’
9Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk?
10Ka koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ʻoku ʻi he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻae mālohi ʻi māmani ke fakamolemole ʻae angahala,” (pea pehē ʻe ia ki he mahaki tete),
10But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)
11“ʻOku ou pehē atu kiate koe, Tuʻu hake, ʻo toʻo ho mohenga, mo ke ʻalu ki ho fale.”
11I say to thee: Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.
12Pea tuʻu hake leva ia, ʻo toʻo ʻae mohenga, pea ne ʻalu kituʻa ʻi he ʻao ʻokinautolu kotoa pē; ko ia ne nau ofo ai kotoa pē, mo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua, ʻonau pehē, “Kuo teʻeki te tau mamata ʻi ha meʻa pehē.”
12And immediately he arose; and taking up his bed, went his way in the sight of all; so that all wondered and glorified God, saying: We never saw the like.
13Pea toe ʻalu atu ia ki he matātahi; pea kātoa kiate ia ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea ne akonakiʻi ʻakinautolu.
13And he went forth again to the sea side; and all the multitude came to him, and he taught them.
14Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu atu, naʻa ne mamata kia Livai ko e foha ʻo ʻAlefiusi, ʻoku nofo ia ʻi he tukuhauʻanga, pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Muimui kiate au.” Pea tuʻu ia ʻo muimui ʻiate ia.
14And when he was passing by, he saw Levi the son of Alpheus sitting at the receipt of custom; and he saith to him: Follow me. And rising up, he followed him.
15Pea ʻi he nofo ʻa Sisu ʻi hono fale, ʻo kai, naʻe tokolahi ʻae tānaki tukuhau mo e angahala, naʻa nau nonofo mo Sisu mo ʻene kau ākonga: he naʻe tokolahi ʻakinautolu naʻe muimui ʻiate ia.
15And it came to pass, that as he sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat down together with Jesus and his disciples. For they were many, who also followed him.
16Pea ʻi he mamata ʻe he kau tangata tohi mo e Fālesi ʻoku ne kai mo e kau tānaki tukuhau mo e angahala, naʻa nau pehē ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Ko e hā ʻoku kai mo inu fakataha ai ia mo e kau tānaki tukuhau mo e angahala?”
16And the scribes and the Pharisees, seeing that he ate with publicans and sinners, said to his disiples: Why doth your master eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
17Pea kuo fanongo ʻa Sisu ki ai, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ʻikai ʻaonga ʻae faitoʻo kiate kinautolu ʻoku mālōlō, ka ki he mahaki: naʻe ʻikai teu haʻu ke ui ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ka ko e angahala ke fakatomala.”
17Jesus hearing this, saith to them: They that are well have no need of a physician, but they that are sick. For I came not to call the just, but sinners.
18Pea naʻe faʻa ʻaukai ʻae kau ākonga ʻa Sione mo e ākonga ʻae kau Fālesi: pea nau haʻu ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku faʻa ʻaukai ai ʻae kau ākonga ʻa Sione pea mo e Fālesi, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻaukai hoʻo kau ākonga?”
18And the disiples of John and the Pharisees used to fast; and they come and say to him: Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast; but thy disciples do not fast?
19Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “E faʻa ʻaukai ʻae kāinga ʻoe tangata taʻane, ʻi he kei ʻiate kinautolu ʻae tangata taʻane? E ʻikai te nau faʻa ʻaukai ʻi he lolotonga ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae tangata taʻane.
19And Jesus saith to them: Can the children of the marriage fast, as long as the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
20Kae hoko ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻe ʻave ai ʻiate kinautolu ʻae tangata taʻane, pea ko e ngaahi ʻaho ko ia te nau toki ʻaukai ai.
20But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them; and then they shall fast in those days.
21“ʻOku ʻikai foki ha taha te ne ʻai ha konga meʻa foʻou ki he kofu motuʻa: he ko e konga foʻou ʻoku ʻai ke ʻoposi ʻaki, ʻe mafaufau ai ia pea ʻe ʻāsili ai hono mahaehae.
21No man seweth a piece of raw cloth to an old garment: otherwise the new piecing taketh away from the old, and there is made a greater rent.
22Pea ʻoku ʻikai utu ʻeha taha ʻae uaine foʻou ki he ngaahi hina ʻoku motuʻa; ka pehē ʻe haeʻi ʻe he uaine foʻou ʻae ngaahi hina, pea malingi ʻae uaine, pea maumau ʻae hina; ka ʻoku ʻutu ʻae uaine foʻou ki he ngaahi hina foʻou.”
22And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: otherwise the wine will burst the bottles, and both the wine will be spilled, and the bottles will be lost. But new wine must be put into new bottles.
23Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi he ngaahi ngoue uite ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate; pea ʻi heʻenau ʻalu, naʻe kamata toli ʻe heʻene kau ākonga ʻae fua ʻoe uite.
23And it came to pass again, as the Lord walked through the corn fields on the sabbath, that his disciples began to go forward, and to pluck the ears of corn.
24Pea pehē ʻe he kau Fālesi kiate ia, “Vakai, ko e hā ʻoku nau fai ai ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ngofua?”
24And the Pharisees said to him: Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?
25Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Naʻe ʻikai te mou lau ʻaia naʻe fai ʻe Tevita, ʻi heʻene tuʻutāmaki, mo fiekaia, ʻaia mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia?
25And he said to them: Have you never read what David did when he had need, and was hungry himself, and they that were with him?
26ʻA ʻene hū ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻApiata ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻo ne kai ʻae mā ʻoe ʻao, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ngofua ke kai ka ko e kau taulaʻeiki pe, pea ne ʻange foki kiate kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia?
26How he went into the house of God, under Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the loaves of proposition, which was not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave to them who were with him?
27Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, Naʻe ngaohi ʻae Sāpate koeʻuhi ko e tangata, ka naʻe ʻikai ngaohi ʻae tangata koeʻuhi ko e Sāpate:
27And he said to them: The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath.
28ko ia ko e Foha ʻoe tangata ko e ʻEiki ia ʻoe Sāpate foki.”
28Therefore the Son of man is Lord of the sabbath also.
