< Luke 18 >

1 And he put forth a similitude vnto the signifyinge that men ought alwayes to praye and not to be wery
Pea naʻa ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻi he fakatātā, ʻoku lelei ke lotu maʻuaipē ʻae kakai, pea ʻoua naʻa fiu;
2 sayinge: Ther was a Iudge in a certayne cite which feared not god nether regarded man.
‌ʻO ne pehē, “Naʻe ʻi he kolo ʻe taha ʻae fakamaau, naʻe ʻikai manavahē ki he ʻOtua, pe tokanga ki he tangata.
3 And ther was a certayne wedowe in the same cite which came vnto him sayinge: avenge me of myne adversary.
Pea naʻe ʻi he kolo ko ia ʻae fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti; pea haʻu ia ki ai, ʻo ne pehē, ‘Fakamaau au mo totongi totonu ki hoku fili.’
4 And he wolde not for a whyle. But afterwarde he sayd vnto him selfe: though I feare not God nor care for man
Pea naʻe ʻikai tokanga leva ia ki ai: kae toki fakakaukau ia, [ʻo pehē], ‘ʻOku ʻikai pe te u manavahē ki he ʻOtua, pe tokanga ki he tangata;
5 yet because this wedowe troubleth me I will avenge her lest at the laste she come and hagge on me.
Ka koeʻuhi ʻi he fakafiuʻi au ʻe he fefine ni kuo mate hono husepāniti, te u fakamaauʻi ia, telia ʻi heʻene faʻa haʻu te ne fakakinaʻi au.’”
6 And the lorde sayd: heare what the vnrightewes Iudge sayeth.
Pea pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Fanongo ki he lea ʻae fakamaau taʻeangatonu.
7 And shall not god avenge his electe which crye daye and nyght vnto him ye though he differre them?
Pea ʻe ʻikai fakamaau ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa hono kakai ʻoʻona kuo fili, ʻaia ʻoku tangi kiate ia ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō, ʻo kapau ʻe fakatuotuai ia kiate kinautolu?
8 I tell you he will avenge them and that quickly. Neverthelesse when the sonne of man cometh suppose ye that he shall fynde faithe on the erthe.
‌ʻOku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻE fakamaau vave ʻe ia ʻakinautolu. Ka ʻi he haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata, te ne ʻilo ʻae tui ʻi he fonua?”
9 And he put forthe this similitude vnto certayne which trusted in the selves yt they were perfecte and despysed other.
Pea naʻa ne lea ʻaki ʻae fakatātā ni ki he niʻihi naʻa nau falala kiate kinautolu kuo nau māʻoniʻoni, mo nau manukiʻi ʻae kakai kehe:
10 Two men went vp into ye teple to praye: ye one a pharise and the other a publican.
“Naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae ongo tangata ki he falelotu lahi ke lotu; ko e tokotaha ko e Fālesi, pea ko e tānaki tukuhau ʻae tokotaha.
11 The pharise stode and prayed thus wt him selfe. God I thanke the yt I am not as other men are extorsioners vniuste advoutrers or as this publican.
Naʻe tuʻu atu pe ʻae Fālesi, pea lotu, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku ou fakafetaʻi kiate koe, ʻoku ʻikai te u hangē ko e kau tangata kehe, ke fakamālohi, mo taʻeangatonu, mo tono fefine, pe hangē ko e tānaki tukuhau ni.
12 I fast twyse in ye weke. I geve tythe of all that I possesse.
‌ʻOku liunga ua ʻeku ʻaukai ʻi he uike, pea ʻoku ou ʻatu ʻae tukuhau ʻi heʻeku meʻa fulipē.’
13 And the publican stode afarre of and wolde not lyfte vp his eyes to heven but smote his brest sayinge: God be mercyfull to me a synner.
Ka naʻe tuʻu mamaʻo atu ʻae tānaki tukuhau, pea ʻikai faʻa hanga hake hono mata ki he langi, ka naʻe si fatafata ia, mo pehē, ‘ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke ʻaloʻofa mai kiate au ko e angahala.’
14 I tell you: this ma departed hoe to his housse iustified moore then the other. For every man that exalteth him selfe shalbe brought low: And he yt hubleth him selfe shalbe exalted
‌ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻae tangata ni ki hono fale kuo fakatonuhia ia, ka ʻikai pehē ʻae tokotaha: he ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ne hiki hake ia, ʻe fakavaivaiʻi ia; pea ko ia ʻoku ne fakavaivaiʻi ia, ʻe hiki hake ia.”
15 They brought vnto him also babes yt he shuld touche the. When his disciples sawe that they rebuked the.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi foki kiate ia ʻae tamaiki iiki, koeʻuhi ke ne ala kiate kinautolu: ka ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae kau ākonga, naʻa nau lolomi ʻakinautolu.
16 But Iesus called the vnto him and sayde: Suffre chyldren to come vnto me and forbidde the not. For of soche is ye kyngdome of God.
Ka naʻe ui ʻe Sisu ke nau haʻu, ʻo ne pehē, “Tuku pe ʻae tamaiki iiki ke haʻu kiate au, pea ʻoua naʻa taʻofi ʻakinautolu: he ʻoku ʻoe kakai pehē ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.
17 Verely I saye vnto you: whosoever receaveth not the kyngdome of God as a chylde: he shall not enter therin.
Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ia ʻe ʻikai te ne maʻu ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo hangē ko e tamasiʻi siʻi ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito hū ia ki ai.”
18 And a certayne ruler axed him sayinge: Good Master: what ought I to do to obtayne eternall lyfe? (aiōnios g166)
Pea toki fehuʻi ʻae matāpule ʻe taha kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki lelei, ko e hā te u fai ke u hoko ai ki he moʻui taʻehili?” (aiōnios g166)
19 Iesus sayd vnto him: Why callest thou me good? No man is good save God only.
Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo ke ui ai au ko e lelei? Ko e tokotaha pe ʻoku lelei, ʻaia ko e ʻOtua.
20 Thou knowest ye comaundmentes: Thou shalt not commit advoutry: thou shalt not kyll: thou shalt not steale: thou shalt not beare false witnes: Honoure thy father and thy mother.
‌ʻOku ke ʻilo ʻae ngaahi fekau, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke tono fefine,’ ‘ʻOua naʻa ke fakapō,’ ‘ʻOua naʻa ke kaihaʻa,’ ‘ʻOua naʻa ke fakamoʻoni loi,’ ‘Fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoʻo tamai mo hoʻo faʻē.’”
21 And he sayde: all these have I kept from my youthe.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo u fai eni kotoa pē talu ʻeku siʻi.”
22 When Iesus hearde that he sayde vnto him: Yet lackest thou one thinge. Sell all that thou hast and distribute it vnto the poore and thou shalt have treasure in heven and come and folowe me.
Pea kuo fanongo ʻa Sisu ki he ngaahi lea ni, pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ke kei hala ai: fakatau ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻaʻau, ʻo tufaki ki he masiva, pea te ke maʻu ʻae ʻene koloa ʻi he langi: pea ke haʻu, ʻo muimui ʻiate au.”
23 When he heard that he was hevy: for he was very ryche.
Pea kuo fanongo ia ki ai, naʻa ne mamahi ʻaupito: he naʻe lahi ʻene koloa.
24 When Iesus sawe him morne he sayde: with what difficulte shall they that have ryches enter into the kyngdome of God:
Pea kuo mamata ʻa Sisu kuo mamahi ʻaupito ia, pea ne pehē, “ʻE faingataʻa ʻaupito kiate kinautolu ʻoku koloaʻia ke hū ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
25 it is easyer for a camell to goo thorow a nedles eye then for a ryche man to enter into the kyngdome of God.
He ʻoku faingofua hake ʻae hū ʻae kāmeli ʻi he avaʻi hui, ʻi he hū ʻae tangata koloaʻia ki he puleʻanga ʻae ʻOtua!
26 Then sayde they that hearde that: And who shall then be saved?
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe fanongo naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, “Pea ko hai ʻe moʻui?”
27 And he sayde: Thinges which are vnpossible with men are possible with God.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻikai mafai ʻe he tangata, ʻoku mafai ia ʻe he ʻOtua.”
28 Then Peter sayde: Loo we have lefte all and have folowed the.
Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita, “Vakai, kuo mau liaki ʻae meʻa kotoa pē, ʻo muimui ʻiate koe.”
29 And he sayde vnto them: Verely I saye vnto you ther is noo man that leaveth housse other father and mother other brethren or wyfe or chyldren for the kyngdome of Goddes sake
Pea ne pehe kiate kinautolu, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, “ʻOku ʻikai ha tangata kuo liʻaki ʻe ia ai fale, pea ʻae mātuʻa, pe ko e ngaahi kāinga, pe ko e uaifi, pe ʻae fānau, koeʻuhi ko e puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua,
30 which same shall not receave moche moore in this worlde: and in the worlde to come lyfe everlastinge. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
Ka te ne maʻu ʻo lahi ʻaupito hake ʻi he moʻui ni, pea ʻi he maama ʻe haʻu ʻae moʻui taʻengata.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 He toke vnto him twelve and sayde vnto them. Beholde we go vp to Ierusalem and all shalbe fulfilled that are written by ye Prophetes of the sonne of man.
Pea ne omi ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Vakai, ʻoku tau ʻalu hake ki Selūsalema, pea ʻe fakamoʻoni ki he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻaia kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻe he kau palōfita.
32 He shalbe delivered vnto the gentils and shalbe mocked and shalbe despytfully entreated and shalbe spetted on:
He koeʻuhi ʻe tukuange ia ki he Senitaile, pea ʻe manukiʻi ia, mo fai meʻa kovi kiate ia, mo ʻaʻanu ki ai:
33 and when they have scourged him they will put him to deeth and the thyrde daye he shall aryse agayne.
Pea te nau kauʻimaea mo tāmateʻi ia: pea ʻi hono ʻaho tolu ʻe toetuʻu ia.”
34 But they vnderstode none of these thinges. And this sayinge was hid fro them. And they perceaved not the thinges which were spoken.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni; pea naʻe puli ʻiate kinautolu ʻae lea ni, ʻo ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae ngaahi meʻa kuo lea ʻaki.
35 And it came to passe as he was come nye vnto Hierico a certayne blynde man sate by the waye syde begginge.
Pea pehē, ʻi heʻene ofi atu ki Seliko, naʻe nofo ʻi he veʻehala ʻae tangata kui ʻo kole:
36 And when he hearde the people passe by he axed what it meant.
Pea fanongo ia ki he ʻalu ange ʻae fononga, pea fehuʻi ia ki hono ʻuhinga.
37 And they sayde vnto him yt Iesus of Nazareth passed by.
Pea naʻa nau tala kiate ia, “Ko Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti” ʻoku ʻalu ange.
38 And he cryed sayinge: Iesus ye sonne of David have thou mercy on me.
Pea kalanga ia, ʻo pehē, “Sisu, Foha ʻo Tevita, ʻaloʻofa mai kiate au.”
39 And they which went before rebuked him that he shuld holde his peace. But he cryed so moche the moare thou sonne of David have mercy on me.
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe muʻomuʻa naʻa nau lolomi ia, ke tuku ʻene longoaʻa: ka naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻene kalanga, “Foha ʻo Tevita, ʻaloʻofa mai kiate au.”
40 And Iesus stode styll and commaunded him to be brought vnto him. And when he was come neare he axed him
Pea tuʻu ʻa Sisu, ʻo fekau ke ʻomi ia kiate ia: pea kuo ʻunu mai ia ʻo ofi, pea ne fehuʻi ange kiate ia,
41 sayinge: What wilt thou that I do vnto the? And he sayde: Lorde yt I maye receave my sight.
‌ʻO pehē, “Ko e hā ho loto ke u fai kiate koe?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻEiki, ke ʻā hoku mata.”
42 Iesus sayde vnto him: receave thy sight: thy faith hath saved the.
Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ke ʻā ho mata: kuo fakamoʻui koe ʻe hoʻo tui.”
43 And immediatly he sawe and folowed him praysinge God. And all the people when they sawe it gave laude to God.
Pea ʻā fakafokifā pe ia, ʻo muimui ʻiate ia, pea fakamālō ki he ʻOtua: pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē, naʻa nau fakamālō ki he ʻOtua.
