Acts 20

1 And after the tumult was ceased, Paul calling to him the disciples, and exhorting them, took his leave, and set forward to go into Macedonia.

Pea ʻi he tuku ʻae maveuveu, naʻe ui ʻe Paula ke haʻu kiate ia ʻae kau ākonga, ʻonau feʻofoʻofani pea mahuʻi ia ke ʻalu ki Masitōnia.

2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had exhorted them with many words, he came into Greece;

Pea kuo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi potu ko ia ʻi heʻene ʻalu, pea lahi ʻene akonaki kiate kinautolu, pea ʻalu ia ki Kilisi.

3 Where, when he had spent three months, the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria; so he took a resolution to return through Macedonia.

‌ʻO nofo ai ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu. Pea kuo toitoiʻi ia ʻe he kakai Siu, ʻi heʻene te u folau ki Silia, pea loto ia ke toe foki ange ki Masitōnia.

4 And there accompanied him Sopater the son of Pyrrhus, of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus, and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.

Pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ki ʻEsia ʻa Sopeta mei Pelea; mo ʻAlisitako mo Sekunio mei Tesalonika; mo Keio mei Teape, mo Timote; mo Tikiko mo Talofimo mei ʻEsia;

5 These going before, stayed for us at Troas.

Pea naʻe muʻomuʻa ʻakinautolu ni, ʻo tatali mai kiate kimautolu ʻi Taloasi.

6 But we sailed from Philippi after the days of the Azymes, and came to them to Troas in five days, where we abode seven days.

Pea naʻa mau folau mei Filipai, ʻi he hili ʻae ngaahi ʻaho [kai ]mā taʻemeʻafakatupu, pea mau aʻu atu kiate kinautolu ʻi Taloasi ʻi he ʻaho ʻe nima; pea naʻa mau nofo ai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu.

7 And on the first day of the week, when we were assembled to break bread, Paul discoursed with them, being to depart on the morrow: and he continued his speech until midnight.

Pea ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe uike, naʻe kātoa ai ʻae kau ākonga ke tofitofi mā, pea malanga ʻa Paula kiate kinautolu, kuo ʻamanaki ʻalu ia ʻi he ʻapongipongi; pea malanga ia ʻo aʻu ki he tuʻuapō mālie.

8 And there were a great number of lamps in the upper chamber where we were assembled.

Pea naʻe lahi ʻae maama ʻi he potu fale ki ʻolunga, kuo nau fakataha ai.

9 And a certain young man named Eutychus, sitting on the window, being oppressed with a deep sleep, (as Paul was long preaching, ) by occasion of his sleep fell from the third loft down, and was taken up dead.

Pea naʻe heka ʻi he kātupa ʻae talavou ʻe tokotaha, ko hono hingoa ko ʻUtiko, pea naʻe mohe maʻu ia: pea ʻi he malanga fuoloa ʻa Paula, naʻe hinga hifo ia ʻi he mohe, pea tō ki lalo mei hono tolu ʻoe fata ʻoe fale, pea hiki hake ia kuo mate.

10 To whom, when Paul had gone down, he laid himself upon him, and embracing him, said: Be not troubled, for his soul is in him.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Paula, ʻo foʻohifo ʻiate ia, mo fāʻufua, mo ne pehē, “ʻOua te mou mamahi; he ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻa ʻene moʻui.”

11 Then going up, and breaking bread and tasting, and having talked a long time to them, until daylight, so he departed.

Pea kuo ʻalu hake ia ʻo tofitofi ʻae mā, mo kai, pea nau talanoa ʻo fuoloa, ʻo aʻu ki he maʻa ʻae ʻaho, pea toki ʻalu ia.

12 And they brought the youth alive, and were not a little comforted.

Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae talavou kuo moʻui, pea naʻe lahi ʻenau fiemālie.

13 But we, going aboard the ship, sailed to Assos, being there to take in Paul; for so he had appointed, himself purposing to travel by land.

Pea ne mau muʻomuʻa ki he vaka, ʻo folau ki ʻAsosi, ʻo mau tokanga ke fakaheka ai ʻa Paula: ko ʻene fekau ia, he ko hono loto ke hala ʻuta pe ia.

14 And when he had met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.

Pea kuo mau fetaulaki ki ʻAsosi, pea mau fakaheka ia, pea ʻalu ki Meteline.

15 And sailing thence, the day following we came over against Chios; and the next day we arrived at Samos; and the day following we came to Miletus.

Pea mau folau mei ai, pea pongipongi hake, naʻa mau hoko ʻo feʻunga mo Kaio; pea mau aʻu ki Semo ʻi hono ʻaho ua, pea mau nofo ʻi Talokilio; pea aʻu atu ʻi he ʻaho naʻa na feholoi ki Mileto.

16 For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, lest he should be stayed any time in Asia. For he hasted, if it were possible for him, to keep the day of Pentecost at Jerusalem.

He kuo pau ʻae loto ʻo Paula ke ʻoua naʻa folau ki ʻEfesō, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fuoloa ai ia ki ʻEsia: he naʻa ne fakatoʻotoʻo, ʻo kapau ʻe mafai ʻe ia, ke hoko ki Selūsalema ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe Penitekosi.

17 And sending from Miletus to Ephesus, he called the ancients of the church.

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ia mei Mileto ke haʻu ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoe siasi mei ʻEfesō.

18 And when they were come to him, and were together, he said to them: You know from the first day that I came into Asia, in what manner I have been with you, for all the time,

Pea kuo nau haʻu kiate ia, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Talu ʻae ʻuluaki ʻaho ne u haʻu ai ki ʻEsia, kuo mou ʻilo ia ʻae anga ʻo ʻeku nofo ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē,

19 Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews;

‌ʻA ʻeku tauhi ʻae ʻEiki ʻi he loto angavaivai lahi, mo e loʻimata lahi, mo e ngaahi ʻahiʻahi, naʻe tō kiate au ʻi he toitoiʻi au ʻe he kakai Siu:

20 How I have kept back nothing that was profitable to you, but have preached it to you, and taught you publicly, and from house to house,

Mo ʻeku taʻetaʻofi ki ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ʻaonga, ka kuo u fakaʻilo kiate kimoutolu, mo ako fakahā kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻi he ngaahi fale,

21 Testifying both to Jews and Gentiles penance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

‌ʻO fakapapau atu ki he kakai Siu, pea mo e kakai Kiliki foki, ʻae fakatomala ki he ʻOtua, mo e tui ki hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.

22 And now, behold, being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem: not knowing the things which shall befall me there:

Pea ko eni, vakai, ʻoku ou ʻalu haʻisia ʻi loto ki Selūsalema, pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko mai ai kiate au:

23 Save that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesseth to me, saying: That bands and afflictions wait for me at Jerusalem.

Ka ko eni, ʻoku fakamoʻoni mai ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻo pehē, ʻoku tatali pe kiate au ʻae ngaahi haʻi mo e meʻa fakamamahi ʻi he kolo kotoa pē.

24 But I fear none of these things, neither do I count my life more precious than myself, so that I may consummate my course and the ministry of the word which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

Ka ʻoku ʻikai ueʻi ai au, pea ʻoku ʻikai foki te u lau ko e meʻa mahuʻinga kiate au ʻeku moʻui, kae kehe ke u fakaʻosi ʻi he fiefia ʻeku lakanga, mo e ngāue kuo u maʻu mei he ʻEiki ko Sisu, ke u fakamoʻoni ki he ongoongolelei ʻoe ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua.

25 And now behold, I know that all you, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

“Pea ko eni, vakai, ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻe ʻikai te mou toe mamata ki hoku mata, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē kuo u malangaʻaki ki ai ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.

26 Wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men;

Ko ia ʻoku ou fakapapau fakamoʻomoʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu he ʻaho ni, ʻoku ou maʻa au mei he toto ʻoe kakai kotoa pē.

27 For I have not spared to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

He naʻe ʻikai te u taʻofi ʻae fakahā kiate kimoutolu ʻae finangalo kotoa pē ʻoe ʻOtua.

28 Take heed to yourselves, and to the whole flock, wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed you bishops, to rule the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Ko ia ke mou vakai kiate kimoutolu, pea mo e fanga sipi kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo fakanofo ʻakimoutolu ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni ko hono kau tauhi, ke mou fafanga ʻae siasi ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatauʻaki hono taʻataʻa.

29 I know that, after my departure, ravening wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

He ʻoku ou ʻilo eni, ka hili ʻeku ʻalu, ʻe haʻu kiate kimoutolu ʻae fanga ulofi fakamālohi, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau mamae ki he fanga sipi.

30 And of your own selves shall arise men speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

Pea ʻe tupu foki ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae kau tangata, te nau ako ʻaki ʻae meʻa fakahala, ke tohoaki ʻae kau ākonga ke muimui kiate kinautolu.

31 Therefore watch, keeping in memory, that for three years I ceased not, with tears to admonish every one of you night and day.

Ko ia ke mou leʻo, pea manatu kuo tolu taʻu mo e ʻikai te u tuku ʻeku valokiekina ʻakimoutolu taki taha mo e loʻimata ʻi he pō mo e ʻaho.

32 And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, who is able to build up, and to give an inheritance among all the sanctified.

“Pea ko eni, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ou tuku ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻOtua, pea mo e folofola ʻo ʻene ʻofa, ʻaia ʻoku ne faʻa fai ke langa hake ʻakimoutolu, pea ke tuku kiate kimoutolu ʻae tofiʻa fakataha mo kinautolu kotoa pē kuo fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi.

33 I have not coveted any man’s silver, gold, or apparel, as

Naʻe ʻikai te u manumanu ki he siliva, pe ki he koula, pe ki he kofu ʻo ha tokotaha.

34 You yourselves know: for such things as were needful for me and them that are with me, these hands have furnished.

‌ʻIo, ʻoku mou ʻilo ʻekimoutolu, ko e ongo nima ni kuo na tauhi ki heʻeku ngaahi masiva, pea mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate au.

35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the word of the Lord Jesus, how he said: It is a more blessed thing to give, rather than to receive.

Kuo u fakahā ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ʻi he peheʻi ʻa hoʻomou ngāue, ʻoku totonu ke mou tokoni ki he vaivai, pea manatuʻi ʻae lea ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu, ʻi heʻene pehē, ‘ʻOku monūʻia lahi hake ʻae foaki atu ʻi he maʻu [ʻae foaki mai].’”

36 And when he had said these things, kneeling down, he prayed with them all.

Pea kuo ʻosi ʻene lea ko ia, naʻa ne tuʻulutui, ʻo hūfia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.

37 And there was much weeping among them all; and falling on the neck of Paul, they kissed him,

Pea naʻa nau tangi mamahi kotoa pē, mo nau fāʻufua ʻi he kia ʻo Paula, ʻo ʻuma kiate ia,

38 Being grieved most of all for the word which he had said, that they should see his face no more. And they brought him on his way to the ship.

‌ʻO lahi taha pe ʻenau mamahi koeʻuhi ko ʻene lea naʻe pehē, ʻe ʻikai te nau toe mamata ki hono mata. Pea naʻa nau ō mo ia ki he vaka.
