< Luke 17 >

1 He said to the disciples, “It is impossible that no occasions of stumbling should come, but woe to him through whom they come!
Pea toki pehē ʻe ia ki he kau ākonga, “ʻE ʻikai mafai ke taʻofi ʻae hoko ʻoe ngaahi fakahala: ka ʻe malaʻia ia ʻoku hoko mei ai ia!”
2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
‌ʻOku lelei kiate ia ʻoka ne taupungaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae maka momosi ʻi hono kia, pea lī ki he moana, ʻi heʻene fakahalaʻi ha tokotaha ʻiate kinautolu ni ʻoku siʻi.
3 Be careful. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he makes teshuvah ·complete repentance·, forgive him.
Mou vakai kiate kimoutolu: “Kapau ʻe fai angahala kiate koe ʻe ho kāinga, valoki ia; pea kapau ʻe fakatomala, fakamolemole ia.
4 If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times returns, saying, ‘I make teshuvah ·complete repentance·,’ you shall forgive him.”
Pea kapau ʻe fai angahala ʻe ia kiate koe ʻo liunga fitu ʻi ha ʻaho, kae tafoki ia kiate koe ʻo liunga fitu ʻi ha ʻaho, mo pehē ʻe ia, ‘ʻOku ou fakatomala;’ ke ke fakamolemole ia.”
5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our trusting faith.”
Pea pehē ʻe he kau ʻaposetolo ki he ʻEiki, “Fakalahi ʻemau tui.”
6 The Lord said, “If you had trusting faith like a grain of mustard seed, you would tell this sycamore tree, ‘Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
Pea pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Ka ne mou maʻu ʻae tui ke tatau mo e foʻi tengaʻi musita, te mou lea ki he ʻakau ko e sukamino ni, ‘Ke mataʻaki fuʻu hake koe, pea tō koe ʻi he tahi;’ pea ʻe talangofua ia kiate kimoutolu.
7 But who is there among you, having a servant plowing or keeping sheep, that will say, when he comes in from the field, ‘Come immediately and sit down at the table,’
Ka ko hai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku ai ʻene tamaioʻeiki, ʻoku keli pe tauhimanu, ʻe pehē leva ki ai, ʻoka haʻu ia mei he ngoue, ‘Haʻu koe ʻo nofo hifo ke kai?’
8 and will not rather tell him, ‘Prepare my supper, clothe yourself properly, and serve me, while I eat and drink. Afterward you shall eat and drink’?
Kae ʻikai pehē muʻa ki ai, ‘Teuteu haku ʻohomohe, pea ke nonoʻo koe, ʻo tauhi au, kaeʻoua ke u kai mo inu; pea hili ia te ke toki kai koe mo inu?’
9 Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.
‌ʻOku fakafetaʻi ʻe ia ki he tamaioʻeiki ko ia, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kuo fekau kiate ia? ʻOku ou pehē ʻoku ʻikai.
10 Even so you also, when you have done all the things that are commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants. We have done our duty.’”
Pea ke pehē foki ʻakimoutolu, ʻoka ʻosi hono fai ʻoe meʻa kotoa pē kuo fekau kiate kimoutolu, mou pehē, ‘Ko e kau tamaioʻeiki taʻeʻaonga ʻakimautolu: kuo mau fai ʻaia naʻe totonu pe ke mau fai.’”
11 As he was on his way to Jerusalem [City of peace], he was passing along the borders of Samaria [Watch-mountain] and Galilee [District, Circuit].
Pea pehē, ʻi heʻene ʻalu ki Selūsalema, naʻe fononga atu ia ʻi Samēlia mo Kāleli.
12 As he entered into a certain village, ten men who were afflicted with tzara'at ·leprosy· met him, who stood at a distance.
Pea ʻi heʻene hū ki he potu kakai ʻe taha, naʻe fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻae kau tangata kilia ʻe toko hongofulu, pea nau tutuʻu mamaʻo atu:
13 They lifted up their voices, saying, “Yeshua [Salvation], Master, have mercy on us!”
Pea naʻa nau kalanga leʻo lahi, ʻo pehē, “Sisu, ʻEiki, ke ke ʻaloʻofa mai kiate kimautolu.”
14 When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” As they went, they were cleansed.
Pea ʻi heʻene mamata, naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou ō, ʻo fakahā ʻakimoutolu ki he kau taulaʻeiki.” Pea pehē, ʻi heʻenau ʻalu naʻe fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu.
15 One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice.
Pea naʻe foki mai honau tokotaha, ʻi heʻene mamata kuo fakamoʻui ia, ʻo ne fakamālō ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi ki he ʻOtua,
16 He fell on his face at Yeshua [Salvation]'s feet, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan [person from Watch-mountain].
‌ʻO fakafoʻohifo ia ki hono vaʻe, ʻi he fakafetaʻi kiate ia: ka ko e Samēlia ia.
17 Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “Were not the ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange, “ʻIkai naʻe fakamaʻa ʻae toko hongofulu? Ka kofaʻā ʻae toko hiva?
18 Were there none found who teshuvah ·completely returned· to give glory to God, except this stranger?”
‌ʻOku ʻikai ʻiloa ke foki mai ha taha ke fakamālō ki he ʻOtua, ka ko e muli ni pe.”
19 Then he said to him, “Get up, and go your way. Your trusting faith has healed you.”
Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Tuʻu hake, pea ke ʻalu: kuo fakamoʻui koe ʻe hoʻo tui.”
20 Being asked by the Pharisees [Separated] when God’s Kingdom would come, he answered them, “God’s Kingdom does not come with observation;
Pea ʻi he ʻeke ʻae kau Fālesi kiate ia, pe ʻe hoko ʻafē ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, naʻe leaange ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai hoko ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua mo e fakaongongoa[ki ai]:
21 neither will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ for behold, God’s Kingdom is within you.”
Pea ʻe ʻikai te nau pehē, ‘Vakai heni!’ pe, ‘Vakai hena!’ He ko eni, ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
22 He said to the disciples, “The days will come, when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki he kau ākonga, “ʻE hoko mai ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, te mou holi ai ke mamata ki ha ʻaho ʻe taha ʻoe Foha ʻoe tangata, ka ʻe ʻikai te mou mamata ki ai.
23 They will tell you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Don’t go away, nor follow after them,
Pea ka nau ka pehē kiate kimoutolu, ‘Vakai heni;’ pe, ‘Vakai hena:’ ʻoua naʻa ʻalu atu, pe muimui ki ai.
24 for as the lightning, when it flashes out of the one part under the sky, shines to the other part under the sky; so will the Son of Man be in his day.
He ʻoku hangē ko e ʻasi mai ʻae ʻuhila mei he potu langi ʻe taha, pea ulo ʻo aʻu ki he potu langi ʻe taha, ʻe pehē foki ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻi hono ʻaho.
25 But first, he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
Ka ʻe tomuʻa kātaki ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi, pea ʻe liʻaki ia ʻe he toʻutangata ni.
26 As it was in the days of Noah [Rest], even so will it be also in the days of the Son of Man.
Pea hangē ko e fai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Noa, ʻe pehē foki ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe Foha ʻoe tangata.
27 They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah [Rest] entered into the ship, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
Naʻa nau kai, mo inu, naʻa nau mali uaifi, pea foaki ke mali, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻe hū ai ʻa Noa ki he vaka, pea ʻoho mai ʻae vai, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
28 Likewise, even as it was in the days of Lot [Veil, Covering]: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;
Pea hangē foki ko e fai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Lote, naʻa nau kai, mo inu, naʻa nau fefakatauʻaki, naʻa nau tō ngoue, pea nau langa fale;
29 but in the day that Lot [Veil, Covering] went out from Sodom [Burning], Yahweh caused it to rain fire and sulfur from the sky, and destroyed them all.
Ka ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻa Lote ʻi Sotoma, naʻe ʻuha afi mo e maka vela mei he langi, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
30 It will be the same way in the day that the Son of Man is revealed.
‌ʻE pehē pe foki ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fakahā ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.
31 In that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away. Let him who is in the field likewise not turn back.
“Pea ko ia ia ʻe ʻi he tuʻa fale ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ka ʻoku ʻi loto fale ʻene meʻa, ke ʻoua naʻa ʻalu hifo ia ko hono ʻave: pea ko ia ʻe ʻi he ngoue, ke ʻoua foki naʻa liu mai.
32 Remember Lot [Veil, Covering]’s wife!
Manatuʻi ʻae uaifi ʻo Lote.
33 Whoever seeks to save his life loses it, but whoever loses his life preserves it.
Ko ia ia ʻe kalofaki ʻene moʻui, ʻe mole ia ʻiate ia; ka ko ia ia ʻe tuku[ʻene moʻui ]ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ia.
34 I tell you, in that night there will be two people in one bed. The one will be taken, and the other will be left.
‌ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻI he pō ko ia ʻe ai ʻae tangata ʻe toko ua ʻi he mohenga pe taha; ʻe ʻave ʻae tokotaha, ka ʻe tuku ʻae tokotaha.
35 There will be two grinding grain together. One will be taken, and the other will be left.
‌ʻE fakataha ʻae fefine ʻe toko ua ʻo momosi; ʻe ʻave ʻae tokotaha, ka ʻe tuku ʻae tokotaha.
36 Two will be in the field: the one taken, and the other left.”
‌ʻE ai ʻae tangata ʻe toko ua ʻi he ngoue ko e tokotaha ʻe ʻave, ka ʻe tuku ʻae tokotaha.”
37 They, answering, asked him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the body is, there will the vultures also be gathered together.”
Pea naʻa nau leaange, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, kofaʻā ia?” Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻIlonga ʻae potu ʻe ʻi ai ʻae ʻangaʻanga, ʻe kātoa ki ai ʻae fanga ʻikale.”
