Luke 22
1 Pea naʻe ofi mai ʻae kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻemeʻafakatupu, ʻaia ʻoku ui ko e Lakaatu.
The feast of the unleavened bread, known as the Passover, was near.
2 Pea naʻe fifili ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau tangata tohi pe fēfeeʻi ʻenau tāmateʻi ia; ka naʻa nau manavahē ki he kakai.
The chief priest and the teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity of destroying Jesus, for they were afraid of the people.
3 Pea hū ai ʻa Sētane kia Siutasi naʻe hingoa ko ʻIsikaliote, ko e taha ia ʻi he toko hongofulu ma toko ua.
Now Satan took possession of Judas, who was known as Iscariot, and who belonged to the Twelve;
4 Pea ʻalu ai ia, ʻonau alea mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau matāpule, pe fēfē ʻene lavakiʻi ia kiate kinautolu.
and he went and discussed with the chief priests and officers in charge at the Temple the best way of betraying Jesus to them.
5 Pea naʻa nau fiefia, ʻo alea fakapapau ke ʻatu ha paʻanga kiate ia.
They were glad of this, and agreed to pay him.
6 Pea loto ia ki ai ʻo ne lamasi ke tuʻumālie ʻene lavaki ia kiate kinautolu ʻi he ʻikai ʻi ai ha kakai.
So Judas assented, and looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them, in the absence of a crowd.
7 Pea hokosia ʻae ʻaho ʻoe mā taʻemeʻafakatupu, ʻaia ʻoku totonu ke tāmateʻi ai ʻa e [feilaulau ]ʻoe Lakaatu.
When the day of the Festival of the unleavened bread came, on which the Passover lambs had to be killed,
8 Pea fekauʻi ʻe ia ʻa Pita mo Sione, ʻo pehē, “Mo ō, ʻo teuteu ʻa e [feilaulau ]ʻoe Lakaatu maʻatautolu, koeʻuhi ke tau kai.”
Jesus sent forward Peter and John, saying to them, “Go and make preparations for our eating the Passover.”
9 Pea naʻa na pehē kiate ia, “Ko e potu fē ʻoku ke loto ke ma teuteu ai?”
“Where do you wish us to make preparations?” they asked.
10 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “Vakai, ʻi hoʻomo hū ki he kolo, te mo fetaulaki mo e tangata ʻoku ne fua ʻae hina vai; mo muimui ʻiate ia ki he fale ʻe hū ia ki ai.
“Listen,” he answered, “when you have reached the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him into whatever house he enters;
11 Pea mo pehē ki he ʻeiki ʻoe fale, ‘ʻOku pehē mai ʻae ʻEiki kiate koe, “Kofaʻā ia ʻae potu te mau kai ai ʻa e [feilaulau ]ʻoe Lakaatu mo ʻeku kau ākonga?”’
and you will say to the owner of the house ‘The teacher says to you – Where is the room where I am to eat the Passover with my disciples?’
12 Pea ʻe fakahā ʻe ia kiate kimoua ʻae potu lahi ʻi ʻolunga kuo teuʻi: pea mo teuteu ai.”
The man will show you a large upstairs room, set out; there make preparations.”
13 Pea naʻa na ō, ʻo na ʻilo ʻo hangē ko ʻene lea kiate kinaua; pea naʻa na teuteu ʻa e [feilaulau ʻoe ]Lakaatu.
So Peter and John went on, and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 Pea kuo hokosia ʻae feituʻu efiafi, pea nofo hifo ia, mo e kau ʻaposetolo ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua.
When the time came, Jesus took his place at the table, and the apostles with him.
15 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Kuo u holi ʻi he holi lahi, ke tau kai mo kimoutolu ʻa e [feilaulau ]ʻoe Lakaatu ni ʻi he teʻeki ai te u mate.
“I have most earnestly wished,” he said, “to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
16 He ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu. ʻE ʻikai te u toe kai ia, kaeʻoua ke fakamoʻoni ia ʻi he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
For I tell you that I will not eat it again, until it has had its fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”
17 Pea toʻo ʻe ia ʻae ipu, ʻo ne fakafetaʻi, ʻo pehē, “Toʻo eni, ʻo tufaki kiate kimoutolu:
Then, on receiving a cup, after saying the thanksgiving, he said, “Take this and share it among you.
18 He ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻE ʻikai te u inu ʻi he fua ʻoe vaine, kaeʻoua ke hokosia ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
For I tell you that I will not, after today, drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God has come.”
19 Pea toʻo ʻe ia ʻae mā, ʻo ne fakafetaʻi, mo tofitofi ia, ʻo ne ʻatu kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoku sino eni, ʻaia kuo foaki koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu: fai eni ʻi he fakamanatu kiate au.”
Then Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke it and gave to them, with the words, “This is my body.
20 Pea hili ʻae ʻohomohe naʻe[toʻo ]foki[ʻe ia ]ʻae ipu, ʻo pehē, “Ko e ipu ni ko e fuakava foʻou ʻi hoku toto, ʻaia ʻoku lilingi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu.
21 “Kae vakai, ko e nima ʻo ia ʻoku ne lavakiʻi au, ʻoku ʻiate au ʻi he keinangaʻanga.
Yet see! The hand of the man who is betraying me is beside me on the table!
22 Pea ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻalu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tuʻutuʻuni: ka ʻe malaʻia ʻae tangata ko ia te ne lavakiʻi ia!”
True, the Son of Man is passing, by the way ordained for him, yet alas for that man by whom he is being betrayed!”
23 Pea naʻa nau kamata fakafefehuʻiʻaki ʻiate kinautolu, pe ko hai ia ʻiate kinautolu ʻe fai ʻae meʻa ni.
Then they began questioning one another which of them it could be who was going to do this.
24 Pea naʻe ai ʻae kikihi foki ʻiate kinautolu, pe ko hai ʻiate kinautolu ʻe lahi.
And a dispute arose among them as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
25 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe Senitaile ʻoku nau puleʻi ʻakinautolu: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku pule kakaha, ʻoku nau ui ʻakinautolu ‘ko e angalelei.’
Jesus, however, said, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their oppressors are styled ‘Benefactors.’
26 Ka ʻe ʻikai pehē ʻiate kimoutolu: ka ko ia ʻoku lahi ʻiate kimoutolu, tuku ke tatau ia mo e ki mui; pea mo ia ʻoku pule, ke tatau mo ia ʻoku tauhi.
But with you it must not be so. No, let the greatest among you become like the youngest, and him who leads like him who serves.
27 He ko hai ʻoku lahi, ko ia ʻoku ne nofo ʻo kai, pe ko ia ʻoku ne tauhi? ʻIkai ko ia ʻoku nofo ʻo kai? Ka ʻoku ou ʻiate kimoutolu ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku tauhi.
Which is the greater – the master at the table or his servant? Is not it the master at the table? Yet I myself am among you as one who serves.
28 “Ko kimoutolu ia kuo nofomaʻu mo au, ʻi hoku ngaahi ʻahiʻahi.
You are the men who have stood by me in my trials;
29 Pea ʻoku ou tuʻutuʻuni kiate kimoutolu ha puleʻanga, ʻo hangē ko e tuʻutuʻuni ʻa ʻeku Tamai kiate au;
and, just as my Father has assigned me a kingdom, I assign you places,
30 Koeʻuhi ke mou kai mo inu ʻi heʻeku keinangaʻanga ʻi hoku puleʻanga, mo nofo ʻi he ngaahi nofoʻa, ʻo fakamaau ʻae faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu ma ua ʻo ʻIsileli.
so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated on twelve thrones as judges of the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 “Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, Saimone, Saimone, vakai, ʻoku holi ʻa Sētane kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke ne fakatangaʻi [ʻakimoutolu ]ʻo hangē ko e uite.
Simon! Simon! listen. Satan demanded leave to sift you all like wheat,
32 Ka kuo u hūfia koe, ke ʻoua naʻa mate hoʻo tui: pea ʻoka ke ka toe liliu, ke ke tokoni ho kāinga.”
but I prayed for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. And you, when you have returned to me, are to strengthen the others.”
33 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻEiki, te u ʻalu mo koe ki he fale fakapōpula mo e mate.”
“Master,” said Peter, “with you I am ready to go both to prison and to death.”
34 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Pita, ʻoku ou tala kiate koe, ʻE ʻikai ʻuʻua ʻae moa ʻi he ʻaho ni, kaeʻoua ke tuʻo tolu hao fakafisi, [ʻo pehē], ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo au.”
“I tell you, Peter,” replied Jesus, “the cock will not crow today until you have disowned all knowledge of me three times.”
35 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻI heʻeku fekau atu ʻakimoutolu taʻehakatopaʻanga, pe ha kato kai, pe ha topuvaʻe, naʻa mou masiva ʻi ha meʻa?” Pea nau pehē, “ʻIkai.”
Then he said to them all, “When I sent you out as my messengers, without either purse, or bag, or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No; nothing,” they answered.
36 Pea pehē ai ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ka ko eni, ko ia ʻoku maʻu ʻae kato paʻanga, ke ne toʻo [ia], pea mo e kato kai foki; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai haʻane heletā, ke fakatau ʻe ia ʻa hono kofu, pea maʻu ai ha taha.”
“Now, however,” he said, “he who has a purse must take it and his bag as well; and he who has not must sell his cloak and buy a sword.
37 He ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ko e tohi ni, ‘Pea naʻe lau fakataha ia mo e kau angahala,’ ʻe fakamoʻoni ʻiate au: he ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku kau kiate au ʻe fakamoʻoni ki ai.”
For, I tell you, that passage of scripture must be fulfilled in me, which says – ‘He was counted among the godless’; indeed all that refers to me is finding its fulfillment.”
38 Pea naʻa nau pehē, ‘ʻEiki, vakai, ko eni ʻae heletā ʻe ua.” Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku lahi.”
“Master,” they exclaimed, “look, here are two swords!” “Enough!” said Jesus.
39 Pea haʻu kituaʻā ia, ʻo ʻalu ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOlive, ʻo hangē ko ʻene faʻa fai; pea muimui ʻa ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia.
Jesus then went out, and made his way as usual to the Mount of Olives, followed by his disciples.
40 Pea kuo hoko ia ki he potu, pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou lotu ke ʻoua naʻa mou hinga ki he ʻahiʻahi.”
And, when he reached the spot, he said to them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”
41 Pea mahuʻi ia ʻiate kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e lisiʻanga maka [hono mamaʻo], pea tūʻulutui, mo lotu,
Then he withdrew about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and began to pray.
42 ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Tamai, kapau ko ho finangalo, ʻave ʻae ipu ni ʻiate au: kaeʻoua naʻa fai hoku loto, ka ko e finangalo ʻoʻou.”
“Father,” he said, “if it is your pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but your be done.”
43 Pea naʻe fakahā mai ʻae ʻāngelo mei he langi kiate ia, ʻo ne fakamālohi ia.
Presently there appeared to him an angel from heaven, who strengthened him.
44 Pea moʻua ia ʻi he mamahi lahi, pea ʻāsili ai ʻene lotu fakamātoato: pea ko ʻene tautaʻa ko e taʻataʻa naʻe tō ʻi he tulutā lalahi ki he kelekele.
And, as his anguish became intense, he prayed still more earnestly, while his sweat was like great drops of blood falling on the ground.
45 Pea tuʻu hake ia mei he lotu, ʻo haʻu ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, ʻo ne ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau moʻumohea ʻi he mamahi.
Then he rose from praying, and came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow.
46 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou mohe ai? Mou tuʻu ʻo lotu, telia naʻa mou tō ki he ʻahiʻahi.”
“Why are you asleep?” he asked them. “Rise and pray so that you don’t fall into temptation.”
47 Pea lolotonga ʻene lea, vakai, ko e kakai, pea mo ia naʻe ui ko Siutasi, ko e taha ʻi he toko hongofulu ma toko ua, naʻe muʻomuʻa ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne ʻunuʻunu atu kia Sisu ke ʻuma ki ai.
While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared in sight, led by the man called Judas, who was one of the Twelve. Judas approached Jesus, to kiss him;
48 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Siutasi, ʻoku ke lavakiʻi ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻaki ʻae ʻuma?”
at which Jesus said to him, “Judas, is it by a kiss that you betray the Son of Man?”
49 Pea kuo mamata ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia ʻaia ʻe hoko, naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, te mau taaʻi ʻaki ʻae heletā?”
But when those who were around Jesus saw what was going to happen, they exclaimed, “Master, should we use our swords?”
50 Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe honau tokotaha ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻo ne motuhi hono telinga toʻomataʻu.
And one of them struck the high priest’s servant and cut off his right ear;
51 Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē, “Tukuā, kuo lahi eni.” Pea ne ala ki hono telinga, ʻo fakamoʻui ia.
at which Jesus said, “Let me at least do this”; and, touching his ear, he healed the wound.
52 Pea pehē ʻe Sisu ki he kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau pule ʻoe falelotu lahi, mo e kau mātuʻa, naʻe haʻu kiate ia, “Kuo mou omi mo e ngaahi heletā, mo e ngaahi ʻakau, ʻo hangē ki ha kaihaʻa?
Then, turning to the chief priests and officers in charge at the Temple and the elders, who had come for him, he said, “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs?
53 ʻI heʻeku ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he falelotu lahi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, naʻe ʻikai mafao atu ha nima kiate au: ka ko homou feituʻupō eni, mo e mālohi ʻoe fakapoʻuli.”
When I was with you day after day in the Temple Courts, you did not lay hands on me; but now your time has come, and the power of darkness.”
54 Pea naʻa nau puke ai ia, pea taki ʻo ʻomi ia ki he fale ʻoe taulaʻeiki lahi. Pea naʻe muimui mamaʻo atu ʻa Pita.
Those who had taken Jesus prisoner took him away into the house of the high priest. Peter followed at a distance.
55 Pea kuo nau tafu ʻae afi ʻi loto fale, ʻonau nonofo fakataha, pea nofo ki lalo ʻa Pita mo kinautolu.
But, when they had lit a fire in the centre of the courtyard and had all sat down there, Peter seated himself in the middle of them.
56 Ka naʻe mamata kiate ia ʻae kaunanga ʻe tokotaha ʻi heʻene nofo [ofi ]ki he afi, ʻo ne sio fakamamaʻu kiate ia, mo pehē, “Naʻe ʻiate ia foki ʻae tangata ni.”
Presently a maidservant saw him sitting near the blaze of the fire. She looked carefully at him and said, “Why, this man was one of his companions!”
57 Pea fakafisi ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻE fefine, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ia.”
But Peter denied it. “I do not know him,” he replied.
58 Pea toe siʻi mo e mamata kiate ia ʻae tokotaha kehe, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ke ʻonautolu foki.” Pea pehēange ʻe Pita, “ʻE tangata, ʻoku ʻikai.”
A little while afterward someone else – a man – saw him and said, “Why, you are one of them!” “No,” Peter said, “I am not.”
59 Pea hili nai ʻae feituʻupō ʻe taha, mo ʻene lea fakapapau ʻae tokotaha, ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni naʻe ʻiate ia foki ʻae siana ni; he ko e Kāleli ia.”
About an hour later another man declared positively, “This man also was certainly with him. Why, he is a Galilean!”
60 Pea pehēange ʻe Pita, “ʻE tangata, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku ke lea ki ai.” Pea fakafokifā pe, ʻi heʻene kei lea, naʻe ʻuʻua ʻae moa.
But Peter said, “I do not know what you are speaking about.” Instantly, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.
61 Pea tafoki ʻae ʻEiki ki mui, ʻo ne sio kia Pita, pea manatuʻi ʻe Pita ʻae lea ʻae ʻEiki, ʻi heʻene pehē kiate ia, “ʻE teʻeki ai ʻuʻua ʻae moa, kuo tuʻo tolu hao fakafisinga ʻiate au.”
And the Master turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the words that the Master had said to him – “Before a cock has crowed today, you will disown me three times”;
62 Pea ʻalu kituʻa ʻa Pita, ʻo tangi mamahi.
and he went outside and wept bitterly.
63 Pea ko e kau tangata naʻe puke ʻa Sisu, naʻa nau manukiʻi ʻo taaʻi ia.
The men who held Jesus kept making sport of him and beating him.
64 Pea hili ʻenau nonoʻo hono mata, naʻa nau sipiʻi hono mata, ʻo fehuʻi kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Mate mai, Ko hai ia ʻoku ne sipiʻi koe?”
They blindfolded him and then questioned him. “Now play the prophet,” they said. “Who was it that struck you?”
65 Pea naʻe lahi ʻae meʻa kovi kehekehe naʻa nau lea ʻaki kiate ia.
And they heaped many other insults on him.
66 Pea ʻi heʻene ʻaho, naʻe fakataha leva ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoe kakai mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau tangata tohi, ʻonau taki ia ki honau potu fakamaau, ʻonau pehē,
At daybreak the assembly of the elders of the people met – both the chief priests and the teachers of the Law – and took Jesus before their High Council.
67 “Ko koe ko e Kalaisi? Tala mai kiate kimautolu.” Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Kapau te u tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻe ʻikai te mou tui:
“If you are the Christ,” they said, “tell us so.” “If I tell you,” replied Jesus, “you will not believe me;
68 Pea kapau te u fehuʻi foki, ʻe ʻikai te mou tala mai kiate au, pe tukuange [au].
and, if I question you, you will not answer.
69 Ka hili eni, ʻe nofo ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe māfimafi ʻoe ʻOtua.”
But from this hour the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of God Almighty.”
70 Pea nau pehē ai kotoa pē, “He ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua?” Pea tala ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou pehē, pea ko au ia.”
“Are you, then, the Son of God?” they all asked. “It is true,” answered Jesus, “I am.”
71 Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Koeʻumaʻā kiate kitautolu mo ha fakamoʻoni? He kuo tau fanongo ʻakitautolu mei hono fofonga ʻoʻona.”
At this they exclaimed, “Why do we want any more evidence? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!”
