< Mark 10 >

1 He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.
Pea naʻe mahuʻi mei ai ia, ʻo haʻu ki he mata fonua ʻo Siutea, ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani: pea toe fakataha ʻae kakai kiate ia; pea ne toe akonakiʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko ʻene faʻa fai.
2 Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
Pea haʻu ʻae kau Fālesi, ʻonau fehuʻi ʻahiʻahi kiate ia, “ʻOku ngofua ke tukuange ʻe he tangata [ʻa hono ]uaifi?”
3 He answered, “What did Moses command you?”
Pea lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kiate kimoutolu?”
4 They said, “Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her.”
Pea nau pehē, “Naʻe tuku ʻe Mōsese ke tohi ʻae tohi fakamavae, pea tukuange [ia].”
5 But Jesus said to them, “For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.
Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he fefeka ʻo homou loto naʻa ne tohi ai ʻae fekau ni kiate kimoutolu.
6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.
Kae talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻi he fakatupu naʻe ngaohi ʻakinaua ʻe he ʻOtua ‘ko e tangata mo e fefine.’
7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,
‘Pea ko e meʻa ko ia ʻe tukuange ai ʻe he tangata ʻa ʻene tamai mo ʻene faʻē, kae pikitai ki hono uaifi;
8 and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.
pea ʻe hoko ʻakinaua ko e kakano pe taha:’ ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai ke na kei ua ka ko e kakano pe taha.
9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
Ko ia foki kuo fakataha ʻe he ʻOtua, ke ʻoua naʻa fakamavae ʻe ha tangata.”
10 In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter.
Pea toe ʻeke ʻe heʻene kau ākonga kiate ia ʻi he fale ki he meʻa ko ia.
11 He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko ia ia ʻe tukuange hono uaifi, pea fakamaʻu mo ha taha kehe, ʻoku tono fefine ia kiate ia.
12 If a woman herself divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”
Pea kapau ʻe tukuange ʻe he fefine ʻa hono husepāniti, pea fakamaʻu mo ha taha kehe, ʻoku tono tangata ia.”
13 They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae tamaiki iiki kiate ia, koeʻuhi ke ne ala kiate kinautolu: pea lolomi ʻe he kau ākonga [ʻakinautolu ]naʻe ʻomi ʻakinautolu.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation and said to them, “Allow the little children to come to me! Do not forbid them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
Ka ʻi he ʻafio ki ai ʻa Sisu, pea tuputāmaki lahi ia, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Tuku ke haʻu kiate au ʻae tamaiki iiki, pea ʻoua naʻa taʻofi ʻakinautolu; he ʻoku ʻoe kakai pehē ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.
15 Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ia ʻe ʻikai te ne maʻu ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo hangē ko ha tamasiʻi siʻi, ʻe ʻikai hū ia ki ai.”
16 He took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
Pea fua hake ʻe ia ʻakinautolu ʻi hono nima, ʻo hilifaki hono nima kiate kinautolu, mo ne tāpuakiʻi ʻakinautolu.
17 As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit consummate (aiōnios g166) life?"
Pea ʻi heʻene hāʻele atu ki he hala, naʻe lele mai ʻae tokotaha, ʻo tūʻulutui kiate ia, mo fehuʻi kiate ia, [ʻo pehē], “ʻEiki lelei, ko e hā teu fai ke u maʻu ai ʻae moʻui taʻengata?” (aiōnios g166)
18 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke ui ai au ko e lelei? Ko e tokotaha pe ʻoku lelei, ʻaia ko e ʻOtua.
19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’”
‌ʻOku ke ʻilo ʻae ngaahi fekau, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke tono fefine, ʻOua naʻa ke fakapō, ʻOua naʻa ke kaihaʻa, ʻOua naʻa ke fakamoʻoni loi, ʻOua naʻa ke kākā, Fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoʻo tamai mo hoʻo faʻē.’”
20 He said to him, “Teacher, I have observed all these things from my youth.”
Pea ne lea, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “ʻEiki, kuo u fai eni kotoa pē talu ʻeku kei siʻi.”
21 Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross.”
Pea sio ki ai ʻa Sisu mo ʻofa kiate ia, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ke kei hala ai: ke ke ʻalu, ʻo fakatau ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻaʻau, pea ke foaki ki he masiva, pea te ke maʻu ʻae koloa ʻi he langi: pea ke haʻu, ʻo fua ʻae ʻakau māfasia, mo muimui ʻiate au.”
22 But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
Pea naʻe puputuʻu ia ʻi he lea ko ia, pea ʻalu atu kuo mamahi; he naʻe lahi ʻene koloa.
23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!”
Pea vakai foli ʻe Sisu, pea ne pehē ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Ko e meʻa faingataʻa ʻaupito kiate kinautolu ʻoku maʻu koloa ke hū ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua!”
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!
Pea ofo ʻae kau ākonga ʻi heʻene ngaahi lea. Ka naʻe toe lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Fānau ʻe faingataʻa ʻaupito kiate kinautolu ʻoku falala ki he koloa ke hū ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
‌ʻOku faingofua ke hū ʻae kāmeli ʻi he avaʻi hui, ʻi he hū ʻae tangata koloaʻia ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
26 They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, “Then who can be saved?”
Pea naʻa nau mātuʻaki ofo fakamanavahē, ʻonau fepehēʻaki, “Pea ko hai ʻe moʻui?”
27 Jesus, looking at them, said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God.”
Pea vakai ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai faʻa fai [eni ]ʻe he tangata, ka ko e ʻOtua pe: he ʻoku faʻa fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae meʻa kotoa pē.”
28 Peter began to tell him, “Behold, we have left all and have followed you.”
Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita kiate ia, “Vakai, kuo mau liʻaki ʻae meʻa kotoa pē, ʻo muimui ʻiate koe.”
29 Jesus said, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,
Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku ʻikai ha tangata kuo ne liʻaki ʻae fale, pe ko e ngaahi kāinga, pe ha ngaahi tuofefine, pe ko e tamai, pe ko e faʻē, pe ha uaifi, pe ha fānau, pe ko e fonua, koeʻuhi ko au, pea mo e ongoongolelei,
30 but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time: houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age (aiōn g165) to come, consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
Ka te ne maʻu ʻo taki teau ʻi he moʻui ni, ko e fale, mo e kāinga, mo e tuofefine, mo e faʻē, mo e fānau, mo e fonua, fakataha mo e fakatanga; pea ʻi he maama ʻe haʻu ko e moʻui taʻengata. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
Ka ko e tokolahi ʻoku muʻomuʻa ʻe muimui; pea ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻae muimui.”
32 They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.
Pea kuo nau fononga ʻi he hala ki Selūsalema; pea muʻomuʻa atu ʻa Sisu ʻiate kinautolu: pea ofo ai ʻakinautolu; pea nau manavahē ʻi heʻenau muimui. Pea ne toe ʻave ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻo ne kamata tala kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko kiate ia,
33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles.
[ʻO ne pehē], “Vakai, ʻoku tau ʻalu hake ki Selūsalema; pea ʻe tukuange ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau tangata tohi; pea te nau fakamaau ia ke mate, ʻo tukuange ia ki he Senitaile;
34 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”
Pea te nau manukiʻi ia, mo haha ia, mo ʻaʻanu kiate ia, mo tāmateʻi ia; pea ʻi hono ʻaho tolu ʻe toetuʻu ia.”
35 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, saying, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask.”
Pea haʻu kiate ia ʻa Semisi mo Sione, ko e ongo foha ʻo Sepeti, ʻo na pehē, “ʻEiki, ko homa loto ke ke fai maʻamaua ʻaia kotoa pē te ma kole ki ai.”
36 He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “Ko e hā homo loto ke u fai maʻamoua?”
37 They said to him, “Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left hand, in your glory.”
Pea na pehē kiate ia, Tuku kiate kimaua ke ma nofo, ko e tokotaha ʻi ho nima toʻomataʻu, pea tokotaha ʻi ho nima toʻohema, ʻi ho nāunau.”
38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinaua, “ʻOku ʻikai temo ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku mo kole: ʻoku mo faʻa fai ke inu ʻi he ipu ʻaia te u inu ai? Pea ke papitaiso ʻi he papitaiso ko ia te u papitaiso ai?”
39 They said to him, “We are able.” Jesus said to them, “You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
Pea na pehēange kiate ia, “ʻOku ma faʻa fai pe.” Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinaua, “ʻE inu moʻoni ʻekimoua ʻi he ipu te u inu ai; pea temo papitaiso ʻi he papitaiso ko ia ʻe papitaiso ʻaki au:
40 but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared.”
Ka ko e nofo ki hoku nima toʻomataʻu mo hoku nima toʻohema, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻaku ia ke foaki, ka kiate kinautolu kuo teuteu ia ki ai.”
41 When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant toward James and John.
Pea kuo fanongo ai ʻae toko hongofulu, naʻa nau toki ʻita lahi kia Semisi mo Sione.
42 Jesus summoned them and said to them, “You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
Ka naʻe ui ʻakinautolu ʻe Sisu, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou ʻilo ko kinautolu kuo fakanofo ko e ʻeiki ʻoe Senitaile ʻoku nau faʻa puleʻi ʻakinautolu; pea ko honau houʻeiki ʻoku nau fai faʻiteliha kiate kinautolu.
43 But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you shall be your servant.
Ka ʻe ʻikai pehē ʻiate kimoutolu: ka ko ia ʻoku loto ke lahi ʻiate kimoutolu, ke hoko ia ko homou tauhi:
44 Whoever of you wants to become first among you shall be bondservant of all.
Pea ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku loto ke ʻeiki, ʻe hoko ia ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻamoutolu kotoa pē.
45 For the Son of Man also came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
He naʻe ʻikai ke haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ke tauhia ia, ka ke tauhi, pea ke foaki ʻene moʻui ko e huhuʻi ʻoe tokolahi.”
46 They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.
Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki Seliko: pea ʻi heʻenau ō ʻi Seliko mo ʻene kau ākonga, mo e kakai tokolahi, naʻe nofo ʻo kole ʻi he veʻehala [motuʻa ]ʻae kui ko Patimiusi, ko e foha ʻo Timiusi.
47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”
Pea kuo fanongo ia ko Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti ia, naʻe kamata tangi kalanga ia, ʻo pehē, “Sisu, Foha ʻo Tevita, ʻaloʻofa mai kiate au.”
48 Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out much more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
Pea lolomi ia ʻe he tokolahi ke fakalongo pē: kae ʻāsili ai ʻaupito ʻene kalanga, “Foha ʻo Tevita, ʻaloʻofa kiate au.”
49 Jesus stood still and said, “Call him.” They called the blind man, saying to him, “Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you!”
Pea tuʻu ʻa Sisu, ʻo fekau ke ui kiate ia. Pea naʻa nau ui ʻae tangata kui, mo pehē kiate ia, “Ke ke fiemālie, tuʻu; ʻoku ne ui koe.”
50 He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
Pea siʻaki ʻe ia hono kofu, kae tuʻu hake, ʻo haʻu kia Sisu.
51 Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “Rabboni, that I may see again.”
Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā ho loto ke u fai kiate koe?” Pea pehēange ʻe he tangata kui kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ke ʻā hoku mata.”
52 Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your faith has made you well.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the way.
Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻAlu; kuo fakamoʻui koe ʻe hoʻo tui.” Pea ʻā leva ia, ʻo ne muimui kia Sisu ʻi he hala.
