< Luke 5 >

1 And it came to pass, as the crowd pressed on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret:
Pea pehē, ʻi heʻene tuʻu ʻi he matātahi ʻo Kenesaleti, naʻe lolofi mai kiate ia ʻae kakai ke fanongo ki he folofola ʻae ʻOtua.
2 and he saw two ships standing by the lake, but the fishermen, having come down from them, were washing their nets.
Pea mamata ia ki he vaka ʻe ua ʻoku toka ʻi he veʻe ano: ka kuo ʻalu mei ai ʻae kau toutai ika, ʻonau fō honau ngaahi kupenga.
3 And getting into one of the ships, which was Simon's, he asked him to draw out a little from the land; and he sat down and taught the crowds out of the ship.
Pea heka ia ki he vaka ʻe taha, ʻaia naʻe ʻo Saimone, pea ne kole kiate ia ke tukutuku siʻi mei ʻuta. Pea naʻe nofo hifo ia, ʻo akonaki ki he kakai mei he vaka.
4 But when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Draw out into the deep [water] and let down your nets for a haul.
Pea kuo hili ʻene lea, pea pehē ʻe ia kia Saimone, “Maʻu atu ki he loloto, pea ʻaʻau homou ngaahi kupenga koeʻuhi kae fusi hake.”
5 And Simon answering said to him, Master, having laboured through the whole night we have taken nothing, but at thy word I will let down the net.
Pea lea ʻa Saimone, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “ʻEiki, kuo mau ngāue ʻanepō ʻo ʻaho, ka naʻe ʻikai maʻu ha meʻa: ka ʻi hoʻo fekau te u ʻaʻau ʻae kupenga.”
6 And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes. And their net broke.
Pea kuo nau fai ia, pea nau maʻu ʻae ngaahi ika ʻo lahi ʻaupito: pea kamata mahae honau kupenga.
7 And they beckoned to their partners who were in the other ship to come and help them, and they came, and filled both the ships, so that they were sinking.
Pea nau taʻalo ki heʻenau kaunga [toutai ika ]ʻi he vaka ʻe taha, ke nau haʻu ʻo tokoni ʻakinautolu. Pea naʻa nau omi, ʻo fakapito ʻae vaka fakatouʻosi, pea na kamata ngalo hifo.
8 But Simon Peter, seeing it, fell at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.
Pea kuo mamata ʻa Saimone Pita, pea fakatōmapeʻe ia ki he tui ʻo Sisu, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE ʻEiki, ʻalu ʻiate au; he ko e tangata angahala au.”
9 For astonishment had laid hold on him, and on all those who were with him, at the haul of fishes which they had taken;
He naʻe ofo ia, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻi he ngaahi ika kuo maʻu:
10 and in like manner also on James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; henceforth thou shalt be catching men.
Pea pehē foki ʻa Semisi, mo Sione ko e ongo foha ʻo Sepeti, ko e kaunga toutai mo Saimone. Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kia Saimone, “ʻOua ʻe manavahē; ngata heni te ke [toutai ]tangata.”
11 And having run the ships on shore, leaving all they followed him.
Pea kuo ʻomi honau ongo vaka ki ʻuta, naʻa nau liʻaki kotoa pē, ʻo muimui kiate ia.
12 And it came to pass as he was in one of the cities, that behold, there was a man full of leprosy, and seeing Jesus, falling upon his face, he besought him saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou art able to cleanse me.
Pea naʻe lolotonga ʻene ʻi he kolo ʻe taha, pea vakai, ko e tangata kuo fonu ʻi he kilia: pea ne mamata kia Sisu, mo tō fakafoʻohifo, ʻo kole kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki, kapau ko ho loto ʻoku ke faʻa fakamaʻa au.”
13 And stretching forth his hand he touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed: and immediately the leprosy departed from him.
Pea mafao ʻe ia hono nima, ʻo ala ki ai mo ne pehē, “Ko hoku loto: ke ke maʻa koe.” Pea mahuʻi leva ʻiate ia ʻae kilia.
14 And he enjoined him to tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing as Moses ordained, for a testimony to them.
Pea ne fekau ia, “Ke ʻoua naʻa tala ki ha taha: kae ʻalu, ʻo fakahā koe ki he taulaʻeiki, mo ke ʻange koeʻuhi ko hoʻo fakamaʻa, ʻo fakatatau [mo ia ]naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese, ko e fakamoʻoni kiate kinautolu.”
15 But the report concerning him was spread abroad still more, and great crowds came together to hear, and to be healed from their infirmities.
Ka naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻae mafola ʻa hono ongoongo: pea naʻe fakataha ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻaupito ke fanongo, pea koeʻuhi ke ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi mahamahaki.
16 And he withdrew himself, and was about in the desert [places] and praying.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia [mei ai ]ki he toafa, ʻo lotu ai.
17 And it came to pass on one of the days, that he was teaching, and there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who were come out of every village of Galilee and Judaea and [out of] Jerusalem; and [the] Lord's power was [there] to heal them.
Pea pehē, ko e ʻaho ʻe taha, ʻi heʻene akonaki, naʻe nofo ai ʻae kau Fālesi mo e kau akonaki ʻi he fono, kuo nau omi mei he potu kakai kotoa pē ʻo Kāleli, mo Siutea, mo Selūsalema: pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae mālohi ʻoe ʻEiki ke fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
18 And lo, men bringing upon a couch a man who was paralysed; and they sought to bring him in, and put [him] before him.
Pea vakai, naʻe ʻomi ʻe he kau tangata ʻae tangata ʻi [hono ]mohenga kuo pukea ʻi he mahaki tete: pea naʻa nau feinga pe fēfeeʻi hono lava mai ki loto, ke tuku ʻi hono ʻao.
19 And not finding what way to bring him in, on account of the crowd, going up on the housetop they let him down through the tiles, with his little couch, into the midst before Jesus.
Pea kuo ʻikai te nau ʻilo pe fēfeeʻi hono lava mai ki loto, koeʻuhi ko e kakai, naʻa nau ʻohake ia kituʻa fale, ʻo tukutuku hifo ia ʻi he ʻato ʻi he mohenga ki he haʻohaʻonga, ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sisu.
20 And seeing their faith, he said, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
Pea kuo mamata ʻe ia ki heʻenau tui, pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Tangata, kuo fakamolemole kiate koe hoʻo ngaahi angahala.”
21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason [in their minds], saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who is able to forgive sins but God alone?
Pea fakakaukau leva ʻae kau tangata tohi mo e kau Fālesi, ʻonau pehē, “Ko hai eni ʻoku ne lea fie ʻOtua? Ko hai te ne faʻa fakamolemole ʻae angahala, ka ko e ʻOtua pe?”
22 But Jesus, knowing their reasonings, answering said to them, Why reason ye in your hearts?
Ka kuo ʻilo ʻe Sisu ʻenau mahalo, pea lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou femahaloʻaki ai ʻi homou loto?
23 which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?
He ʻoku faingofua ʻa fē, ke lea, ‘Kuo fakamolemole kiate koe hoʻo ngaahi angahala;’ pe ko e lea, ‘Tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu?’
24 But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, he said to the paralysed man, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy little couch and go to thine house.
Ka 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, ) “ʻOku ou pehē atu kiate koe, Tuʻu hake, ʻo toʻo ho mohenga, pea ke ke ʻalu ki ho fale.”
25 And immediately standing up before them, having taken up that whereon he was laid, he departed to his house, glorifying God.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake leva ia ʻi honau ʻao, pea ne toʻo mai ʻaia naʻe tokoto ai, ʻo ʻalu ki hono fale, mo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua.
26 And astonishment seized all, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day.
Pea nau ofo ai kotoa pē, mo nau fakamālō ki he ʻOtua, pea fonu ʻi he manavahē, ʻonau pehē, “Kuo tau mamata ʻi he ʻaho ni ki he ngaahi meʻa foʻou!”
27 And after these things he went forth and saw a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the receipt of taxes, and said to him, Follow me.
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, pea ʻalu atu ia, ʻo ne mamata ki he tangata tānaki tukuhau, ko Livai hono hingoa, ʻoku nofo ia ʻi he tukuhauʻanga; pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Muimui ʻiate au.”
28 And having left all, rising up, he followed him.
Pea tukuange ʻe ia ʻae meʻa kotoa pē, ʻo tuʻu hake, pea muimui ʻiate ia.
29 And Levi made a great entertainment for him in his house, and there was a great crowd of tax-gatherers and others who were at table with them.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Livai ʻae kātoanga lahi kiate ia ʻi hono fale: pea naʻe nofo mo kinautolu ʻae kau tānaki tukuhau tokolahi, mo e kakai niʻihi.
30 And their scribes and the Pharisees murmured at his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with tax-gatherers and sinners?
Ka naʻe lāunga honau kau tangata tohi mo e kau Fālesi ki heʻene kau ākonga, ʻonau pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou kai mo inu fakataha ai mo e kau tānaki tukuhau mo e angahala?”
31 And Jesus answering said to them, They that are in sound health have not need of a physician, but those that are ill.
Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ʻikai ʻaonga ʻae faitoʻo kiate kinautolu ʻoku mālōlō; ka ki he mahaki.
32 I am not come to call righteous [persons], but sinful [ones] to repentance.
Naʻe ʻikai te u haʻu ke ui ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ka ko e angahala ke fakatomala.”
33 And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often and make supplications, in like manner those also of the Pharisees, but thine eat and drink?
Pea nau pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku faʻa ʻaukai mo lotu ai ʻae kau ākonga ʻa Sione, mo kinautolu foki ʻoe kau Fālesi; ka ʻoku kai mo inu ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻoʻou.”
34 And he said to them, Can ye make the sons of the bridechamber fast when the bridegroom is with them?
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Te mou faʻa pule ke ʻaukai ʻae kāinga ʻoe tangata taʻane, ʻi he kei ʻiate kinautolu ʻae tangata taʻane?
35 But days will come when also the bridegroom will have been taken away from them; then shall they fast in those days.
Ka ʻe hoko ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻe ʻave ai ʻae tangata taʻane ʻiate kinautolu, pea ko e ngaahi ʻaho ko ia te nau toki ʻaukai ai.”
36 And he spoke also a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment upon an old garment, otherwise he will both rend the new, and the piece which is from the new will not suit with the old.
Pea lea ʻaki foki ʻe ia ʻae fakatātā kiate kinautolu; “ʻOku ʻikai ha taha te ne monomono ʻaki ʻae kofu motuʻa ha konga ʻoe kofu foʻou; ka pehē, ʻe hae [ia ]ʻe he meʻa foʻou, kaeʻumaʻā ʻoku ʻikai fai tatau ʻae konga foʻou mo e motuʻa [kofu].
37 And no one puts new wine into old skins, otherwise the new wine will burst the skins, and it will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;
Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha taha te ne ʻutu ʻae uaine foʻou ki he ngaahi hina ʻoku motuʻa; telia naʻa hae ʻe he uaine foʻou ʻae ngaahi hina, pea tafe, pea maumau ʻae ngaahi hina.
38 but new wine is to be put into new skins, and both are preserved.
Kae ʻutu ʻae uaine foʻou ki he ngaahi hina foʻou; pea tolonga ai fakatouʻosi.
39 And no one having drunk old wine [straightway] wishes for new, for he says, The old is better.
‌ʻOku ʻikai foki ha tangata kuo inu ʻi he [uaine ]motuʻa pea fili leva ia ki he [uaine ]foʻou; he ʻoku ne pehē, ‘ʻOku lelei lahi ʻa e [uaine ]motuʻa.’”
