< Matthew 4 >

1 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
Pea naʻe tataki ʻa Sisu ʻe he Laumālie ki he toafa ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ia ʻe he tēvolo.
2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he afterward hungered.
Pea hili ʻene ʻaukai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu, naʻe toki fiekaia ia.
3 And the tempter came and said unto him, If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae ʻahiʻahi kiate ia, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Kapau ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua, fekau ki he ngaahi maka ni ke liliu ko e mā.”
4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Ka naʻe lea ia, ʻo pehēange, “Kuo tohi, ‘ʻE ʻikai moʻui ʻae tangata ʻi he mā pe, ka ʻi he folofola kotoa pē ʻoku haʻu mei he ʻOtua.’”
5 Then the devil taketh him into the holy city; and he set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
Pea toki ʻohake ia ʻe he tēvolo ki he kolo tapu, ʻo tuku ia ki he tuʻa falelotu lahi,
6 and saith unto him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and, On their hands they shall bear thee up, Lest haply thou dash thy foot against a stone.
‌ʻO ne pehē kiate ia, “Kapau ko e ʻAlo koe ʻoe ʻOtua, fakato koe ki lalo: he kuo tohi, ‘ʻE fekau ʻe ia ʻene kau ʻāngelo ke nau vakai koe: pea ʻe hapahapai koe, telia naʻa touʻia ho vaʻe ʻi he maka.’”
7 Jesus said unto him, Again it is written, Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God.
Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Kuo tohi foki, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke ʻahiʻahi ki he ʻEiki ko ho ʻOtua.’”
8 Again, the devil taketh him unto an exceeding high mountain, and showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
Pea toe ʻohake ia ʻe he tēvolo ki he moʻunga māʻolunga ʻaupito, ʻo ne fakahā kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, mo honau lelei;
9 and he said unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
‌ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Te u ʻatu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē moʻou, ʻo kapau te ke fakatōmapeʻe ʻo hū kiate au.”
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻi heni, Sētane: he kuo tohi, ‘Ke ke hū ki he ʻEiki ko ho ʻOtua, pea ko ia pe te ke tauhi.’”
11 Then the devil leaveth him; and behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
Pea toki ʻalu ʻae tēvolo ʻiate ia, pea ʻiloange, kuo haʻu ʻae kau ʻāngelo ʻo tauhi ia.
12 Now when he heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee;
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Sisu kuo tuku ʻa Sione ki he fale fakapōpula, naʻe ʻalu ia ki Kaleli;
13 and leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali:
Pea mahuʻi ia mei Nāsaleti, pea ʻalu ʻo nofo ʻi Kapaneume, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he matātahi, ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻoe fonua ʻo Sepulone mo Nafitalai:
14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ʻaia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe he palōfita ko ʻIsaia, ʻo pehē,
15 The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, Toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
“Ko e fonua ʻo Sepulone, mo e fonua ʻo Nafitalai, ʻi he potu ki tahi, ʻituʻa Sioatani, ko Kaleli ʻoe Senitaile,
16 The people that sat in darkness Saw a great light, And to them that sat in the region and shadow of death, To them did light spring up.
Ko e kakai naʻe nofo ʻi he poʻuli, kuo mamata ki he maama lahi; pea kuo tupu hake ʻae maama kiate kinautolu naʻe nofo ʻi he teleʻa mo e ʻata ʻoe mate.”
17 From that time began Jesus to preach, and to say, Repent ye; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Pea naʻe fua malanga ʻa Sisu ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ʻo pehē, “Mou fakatomala, he ʻoku ofi ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi.”
18 And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brethren, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishers.
Pea ʻi he hāʻele ʻa Sisu ʻo ofi ki he tahi ʻo Kaleli, naʻe mamata ia ki he ongo kāinga, ko Saimone naʻe ui ko Pita, mo ʻAnitelū ko hono tokoua, ʻoku na lafo kupenga ki tahi: he ko e ongo toutai ika ʻakinaua.
19 And he saith unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “Muimui ʻiate au, pea te u ngaohi ʻakimoua ko e toutai tangata.”
20 And they straightway left the nets, and followed him.
Pea naʻa na liʻaki leva hona kupenga, ʻo muimui ʻiate ia.
21 And going on from thence he saw two other brethren, James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
Pea ʻalu ia mei ai, pea ne mamata ki he ongo kāinga kehe, ko Semisi ko e [foha ]ʻo Sepeti, mo Sione ko hono tokoua, ʻi he vaka mo ʻena tamai ko Sepeti, ʻo pena honau kupenga; pea ne ui ʻakinaua.
22 And they straightway left the boat and their father, and followed him.
Pea naʻa na liʻaki leva ʻae vaka mo ʻena tamai, ka na muimui ʻiate ia.
23 And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness among the people.
Pea ʻalu ʻa Sisu ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻo Kaleli, ʻo akonaki ʻi honau ngaahi falelotu, pea malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ʻoe puleʻanga, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻae mahaki kehekehe kotoa pē, mo e hangatāmaki kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he kakai.
24 And the report of him went forth into all Syria: and they brought unto him all that were sick, holden with divers diseases and torments, possessed with demons, and epileptic, and palsied; and he healed them.
Pea mafola atu hono ongoongo ʻi Silia kotoa pē: pea nau ʻomi kiate ia ʻae kakai mahaki kotoa pē, naʻe tuʻia ʻi he mahaki kehekehe mo e ngaahi feinga mamahi, mo e niʻihi naʻe ʻulusino ai ʻae ngaahi tēvolo, mo kinautolu naʻe vale, mo kinautolu naʻe mahaki tete; pea ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
25 And there followed him great multitudes from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judæa and [from] beyond the Jordan.
Pea naʻe muimui ʻiate ia ʻae kakai lahi ʻaupito mei Kaleli, mo Tikapolusi, mo Selūsalema, mo Siutea, pea mo e kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani.
