Mātiu 15
1 Pea toki haʻu ʻae kau tangata tohi mo e Fālesi ʻo Selūsalema, kia Sisu, ʻonau pehē,
Then there came to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying,
2 “Ko e hā ʻoku liʻaki ai ʻe hoʻo kau ākonga ʻae talatupuʻa ʻae kau mātuʻa? He ʻoku ʻikai te nau fanofano honau nima ʻoka nau ka kai mā.”
Why do your disciples go against the teaching of the fathers? for they take food with unwashed hands.
3 Ka naʻe lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou liʻaki ai foki ʻae fekau ʻae ʻOtua ʻi hoʻomou talatupuʻa?
And in answer he said to them, Why do you, yourselves, go against the word of God on account of the teaching which has been handed down to you?
4 He kuo fekau ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻo pehē, ‘Fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoʻo tamai mo [hoʻo ]faʻē:’ pea, ‘Ko ia ʻe kapeʻi [ʻene ]tamai pe ko [ʻene ]faʻē, tuku ke mate tāmateʻi ia.’
For God said, Give honour to your father and mother: and, He who says evil of father or mother will be put to death.
5 Ka ʻoku pehē ʻekimoutolu, ‘Ko ia ʻe pehē ki heʻene tamai pe ko ʻene faʻē, “Kuo fakatapui ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ou faʻa ʻaonga ai kiate koe,”
But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is given to God;
6 pea ʻoku ʻikai toe fakaʻapaʻapa ia ki heʻene tamai pe ko ʻene faʻē, [ʻe ʻataʻatā ia].’ Ko ia ʻoku mou fakataʻeʻaongaʻi ʻae fekau ʻae ʻOtua ʻaki hoʻomou talatupuʻa.
There is no need for him to give honour to his father. And you have made the word of God without effect because of your teaching.
7 ʻAe kau mālualoi! Neʻineʻi lea ʻa ʻIsaia kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē,
You false ones, well did Isaiah say of you,
8 ‘ʻOku ʻunuʻunu mai ʻae kakai ni kiate au ʻaki honau ngutu, ʻo fakaʻapaʻapa kiate au ʻaki honau loungutu; ka ʻoku mamaʻo honau loto ʻiate au.
These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
9 Ka ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻenau hū kiate au, ʻo akonaki ʻaki ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻae tangata pe.’”
But their worship is to no purpose, while they give as their teaching the rules of men.
10 Pea ui ia ki he kakai, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Fanongo, pea tokanga:
And he got the people together and said to them, Give ear, and let my words be clear to you:
11 ʻOku ʻikai fakaʻuli ki he tangata ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu ki he ngutu; ka ko ia ʻoku haʻu mei he ngutu, ʻoku ne fakaʻuliʻi ʻae tangata.”
Not that which goes into the mouth makes a man unclean, but that which comes out of the mouth.
12 Pea toki haʻu ai ʻene kau ākonga, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻilo naʻe tūkia ʻae kau Fālesi, ʻi heʻenau fanongo ki he lea ko ia?”
Then the disciples came and said to him, Did you see that the Pharisees were troubled when these words came to their ears?
13 Ka naʻe lea ia, ʻo pehēange, “Ko e ʻakau kotoa pē naʻe ʻikai tō ʻe heʻeku Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi, ʻe taʻaki fuʻu hake ia.
But he said in answer, Every plant which my Father in heaven has not put in the earth, will be taken up by the roots.
14 Tuku ai pe ʻakinautolu: ko e kau takimuʻa kui ʻoe kui ʻakinautolu. Pea kapau ʻoku tataki ʻae kui ʻe he kui, ʻe tō fakatouʻosi pe ki he luo.”
Let them be: they are blind guides. And if a blind man is guiding a blind man, the two will go falling into a hole together.
15 Pea lea ʻa Pita, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “Fakamatala kiate kimautolu ʻae fakatātā ni.”
Then Peter said to him, Make the story clear to us.
16 Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu, “ʻOku mou kei taʻeʻilo foki?
And he said, Are you, like them, still without wisdom?
17 ʻOku teʻeki ai te mou ʻilo, ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ʻi he ngutu, ʻoku ʻalu ia ki he kete, pea toki ʻalu hifo kituʻa?
Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth goes on into the stomach, and is sent out as waste?
18 Ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ko ia ʻoku ʻalu atu ʻi he ngutu, ʻoku haʻu mei he loto: pea ko ia ia ʻoku fakaʻuliʻi ʻae tangata.
But the things which come out of the mouth come from the heart; and they make a man unclean.
19 He ʻoku haʻu mei he loto ʻae mahalo kovi, mo e fakapō, mo e tono fefine, mo e feʻauaki, mo e kaihaʻa, mo e fakamoʻoni loi, mo e lea kovi:
For out of the heart come evil thoughts, the taking of life, broken faith between the married, unclean desires of the flesh, taking of property, false witness, bitter words:
20 Ko eni ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fakaʻuliʻi ʻae tangata: ka ko e kai taʻefanofano nima, ʻoku ʻikai fakaʻuliʻi ia ʻae tangata.”
These are the things which make a man unclean; but to take food with unwashed hands does not make a man unclean.
21 Pea toki ʻalu mei ai ʻa Sisu, ki he ngaahi potu ʻo Taia mo Saitone.
And Jesus went away from there into the country of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae fefine Kēnani mei he potu ko ia, ʻo tangi kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻAloʻofa mai kiate au, ʻe ʻEiki, ko e foha ʻo Tevita; ko ʻeku taʻahine ʻoku mamahi lahi ʻi he tēvolo.”
And a woman of Canaan came out from those parts, crying and saying, Have pity on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is greatly troubled with an unclean spirit.
23 Ka naʻe ʻikai siʻi te ne lea kiate ia. Pea haʻu ʻene kau ākonga, ʻo kole kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Fekau ia ke ʻalu; he ʻoku ne tangi toupili mai kiate kitautolu.”
But he gave her no answer. And his disciples came and said to him, Send her away, for she is crying after us.
24 Ka naʻe lea ia, ʻo pehēange, “ʻOku ʻikai fekau au ka ki he fanga sipi he ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli.”
But he made answer and said, I was sent only to the wandering sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Pea toki haʻu ia, ʻo hū kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki, tokoniʻi au.”
But she came and gave him worship, saying, Help, Lord.
26 Ka naʻe lea ia, ʻo pehēange, “ʻOku ʻikai lelei ke toʻo ʻae mā ʻae fānau, pea lī ki he fanga kulī.”
And he made answer and said, It is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.
27 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e moʻoni, ʻEiki: ka ʻoku kai ʻe he fanga kulī ʻae momoʻi [meʻakai ]ʻoku ngangana mei he keinangaʻanga ʻa honau ʻeiki.”
But she said, Yes, Lord: but even the dogs take the bits from under their masters' table.
28 Pea toki lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “ʻE fefine, ʻoku lahi hoʻo tui: ke hoko kiate koe ʻo hangē ko ho loto.” Pea moʻui ʻene taʻahine ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ko ia.
Then Jesus, answering, said to her, O woman, great is your faith: let your desire be done. And her daughter was made well from that hour.
29 Pea ʻalu mei ai ʻa Sisu, pea haʻu ia, ʻo ofi ki he tahi ʻo Kaleli; pea ʻalu hake ia ki he moʻunga, ʻo nofo ai.
And Jesus went from there and came to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and took his seat there.
30 Pea haʻu ʻae kakai tokolahi kiate ia, pea nau ʻomi ʻae pipiki, mo e kui, mo e noa, mo e lavea, mo e tokolahi kehe, ʻo tuku ʻakinautolu ki he vaʻe ʻo Sisu; pea fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻakinautolu:
And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others; they put them down at his feet and he made them well:
31 Ko ia naʻe ofo lahi ai ʻae kakai, ʻi heʻenau mamata kuo fakalea ʻae noa, pea fakahaohaoa ʻae lavea, pea fakaʻeveʻeva ʻae pipiki, pea fakaʻā ʻae kui: pea nau fakamālō ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
So that the people were full of wonder when they saw that those who had no voice were talking, the feeble were made strong, those whose bodies were broken had the power of walking, and the blind were able to see: and they gave glory to the God of Israel.
32 Pea ui ʻa Sisu ke ʻalu ange ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ou ʻofa mamahi ki he kakai, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻaho tolu ʻenau ʻiate au, pea ʻoku ʻikai haʻanau meʻa ke kai: pea ʻe ʻikai te u faʻa fekau ke nau ʻalu ʻaukai pe, telia naʻa nau pongia ʻi he hala.”
And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.
33 Pea lea ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, “Te tau maʻu mei fē ʻi he toafa ni ʻae mā lahi, ke fakamākona ʻaki ʻae fuʻu kakai pehē ni?”
And the disciples say to him, How may we get enough bread in a waste place, to give food to such a number of people?
34 Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku fiha hoʻomou foʻi mā?” Pea nau pehē, “ʻOku fitu, mo e fanga kihiʻi ika.”
And Jesus says to them, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes, and some small fishes.
35 Pea fekau ʻe ia ki he kakai ke nofo ki he kelekele.
Then he gave an order to the people to be seated on the earth,
36 Pea toʻo ʻe ia ʻae foʻi mā ʻe fitu mo e ngaahi ika, pea fai ʻae fakafetaʻi, pea tofitofi ia, ʻo ʻoatu ki heʻene kau ākonga, pea [tufaki ]ʻe he kau ākonga ki he kakai.
And he took the seven cakes of bread and the fishes; and having given praise, he gave the broken bread to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.
37 Pea naʻa nau kai kotoa pē, pea mākona ai: pea nau tānaki ʻae toenga kai pea fonu ai ʻae kato ʻe fitu.
And they all took food, and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits, seven baskets full.
38 Pea ko kinautolu naʻe kai, ko e tangata ʻe toko fā afe, kaeʻumaʻā ʻae kau fefine mo e tamaiki.
And there were four thousand men who took food, together with women and children.
39 Pea fekau ʻe ia ʻae kakai ke nau ʻalu, pea heka vaka ia ʻo folau ki he potu ʻo Makitala.
And when he had sent the people away, he got into the boat, and came into the country of Magadan.
