< Kau ʻAposetolo 2 >

1 Pea kuo hokosia ʻae ʻaho ʻoe Penitekosi, kuo nau kātoa ʻo loto taha ʻi he potu pe taha.
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in the same place.
2 Pea fakafokifā naʻe ai ʻae ʻuʻulu mai mei he langi, ʻo hangē ha tuʻoni matangi mālohi ʻaupito, pea fakapito ʻaki ʻae fale kotoa pē naʻa nau nofo ai.
Suddenly there came from heaven a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 Pea naʻe hā mai kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi ʻelelo mangamanga ʻo hangē ko e afi, pea nofo ia ʻiate kinautolu taki taha.
There appeared to them tongues like fire that were distributed, and they sat upon each one of them.
4 Pea naʻe fakapito ʻaki ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, pea naʻa nau kamata leaʻaki ʻae lea kehekehe, ʻo fakatatau ki hono fakaleaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he Laumālie.
They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them to speak.
5 Pea naʻe ʻāunofo ʻi Selūsalema ʻae kakai Siu faʻa lotu, mei he puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻi lalo langi.
Now there were Jews who were living in Jerusalem, godly men, from every nation under heaven.
6 Pea ʻi he mafola ʻae ongoongo ni, naʻe fakakātoa ʻae kakai, pea nau puputuʻu lahi, koeʻuhi naʻe fanongo ʻae tangata taki taha ki heʻenau lea ʻi heʻene lea ʻaʻana.
When this sound was heard, the multitude came together and was confused because everyone heard them speaking in his own language.
7 Pea naʻe ofo mo fakatumutumu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ʻonau fepehēʻaki, “Vakai, ʻikai ko e kau Kāleli kotoa pē ʻakinautolu na ʻoku lea?
They were amazed and marveled; they said, “Really, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
8 Pea ʻoku fēfē nai ʻoku tau taki taha fanongo ki heʻetau lea, naʻa tau fanauʻi ai?
Why is it that we are hearing them, each in our own language in which we were born?
9 Ko e kakai Patia, mo e Metia, mo e ʻElama, pea mo e kau nofo ʻi Mesopōtemia, mo Siutea, mo Kapatosia, mo Ponito, mo ʻEsia,
Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those who live in Mesopotamia, in Judea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
10 Mo Filisia, mo Pamifilia, mo ʻIsipite, pea mo e ngaahi potu ʻo Lipea ʻo ofi ki Sailine, mo e ngaahi muli mei Loma, ko e ngaahi Siu mo e kakai ului.
Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya toward Cyrene, and visitors from Rome,
11 Ko e kakai, Keliti mo e ʻAlepea, ʻoku tau fanongo ʻoku nau lea ʻi heʻetau lea ki he ngaahi ngāue fakaofo ʻae ʻOtua.”
Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians, we hear them telling in our languages about the mighty works of God.”
12 Pea naʻa nau ofo kotoa pē, ʻo taʻemaau honau loto, mo nau fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe meʻa ni?”
They were all amazed and perplexed; they said to one another, “What does this mean?”
13 Kae manuki ʻae niʻihi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku fonu ʻi he uaine foʻou ʻae kau tangata ni.”
But others mocked and said, “They are full of new wine.”
14 Ka naʻe tutuʻu hake ʻa Pita, mo e toko hongofulu ma tokotaha, ʻo leaʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻAkimoutolu ʻae kau tangata ʻo Siutea, mo kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻi Selūsalema, ke mou ʻilo eni, pea fakafanongo ki heʻeku lea:
But Peter stood with the eleven, raised his voice, and said to them, “Men of Judea and all of you who live at Jerusalem, let this be known to you; pay attention to my words.
15 He ʻoku ʻikai konā ʻakinautolu ni, ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou mahalo, he ko hono tolu pe eni ʻoe feituʻulaʻā ʻoe ʻaho.
For these people are not drunk as you assume, for it is only the third hour of the day.
16 Ka ko eni ia naʻe lea ki ai ʻae palōfita ko Sioeli;
But this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
17 ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻE hoko ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻamui, te u huaʻi hifo hoku Laumālie ki he kakai kotoa pē: pea ʻe kikite ʻe homou ngaahi foha mo homou ngaahi ʻofefine, pea ʻe hā ʻae ngaahi meʻa ki hoʻomou kau talavou, pea ʻe faʻa misi hoʻomou kau mātuʻa:
'It will be in the last days,' God says, 'I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.
18 Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, teu huaʻi hifo hoku Laumālie ki heʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki mo ʻeku kau kaunanga; pea te nau kikite;
Also on my servants and my female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they will prophesy.
19 Pea te u fakahā ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakaofo ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he langi, mo e ngaahi fakaʻilonga ki lalo ʻi māmani; ko e toto mo e afi, mo e ʻahu ʻoe afi;
I will show wonders in the sky above and signs on the earth below, blood, fire, and vapor of smoke.
20 Pea ʻe liliu ʻae laʻā ʻo poʻuli, pea mo e māhina ʻo toto, ʻi he teʻeki hoko ʻae ʻaho lahi pea fakamanavahē, ʻoe ʻEiki:
The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and remarkable day of the Lord comes.
21 Pea ʻe pehē, ko ia ʻe ui ki he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki, ʻe fakamoʻui ia.’
It will be that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'
22 “ʻAe kau tangata ʻIsileli, fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ni; ko Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti, ko e tangata mei he ʻOtua, pea naʻe ongoongo ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi meʻa mana, mo e ngāue fakaofo, mo e fakaʻilonga, ʻaia naʻe fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻiate ia ʻi homou ʻao, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku mou ʻilo foki ki ai:
Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man accredited to you by God by the mighty deeds, the wonders, and the signs which God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know.
23 ‌ʻAia naʻe tukuange ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi heʻene fakakaukau poto mo ʻene muʻaki ʻilo, pea naʻa mou puke ʻaki ia ʻae nima angahala, ʻo tutuki ia ki he ʻakau, ʻo tāmateʻi:
This man was handed over by God's predetermined plan and foreknowledge; and you, by the hand of lawless men, put him to death by nailing him to a cross.
24 ‌ʻAia kuo fokotuʻu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi he veteange ʻoe mamahi ʻoe mate: koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito faʻa taʻofi ʻaki ia.
But God raised him up, freeing him from the pains of death, because it was impossible for him to be held by it.
25 He ʻoku lea ʻa Tevita kiate ia, ‘Naʻaku mamata maʻu ki he ʻEiki ʻi hoku ʻao, he ʻoku ʻi hoku nima toʻomataʻu ia, ke ʻoua naʻa ueʻi au:
For David says about him, 'I saw the Lord always before my face, for he is beside my right hand so that I should not be moved.
26 Ko ia naʻe fiefia ai hoku loto, pea fiefia mo hoku ʻelelo; pea ʻe mālōlō foki ʻa hoku sino ʻi he ʻamanaki lelei:
Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue rejoiced. Also, my flesh will live in certain hope.
27 Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ke tuku hoku laumālie ʻi hētesi, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke tuku ho tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ke ne ʻilo ʻae ʻauʻauha. (Hadēs g86)
For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, neither will you allow your Holy One to see decay. (Hadēs g86)
28 Kuo ke fakahā kiate au ʻae ngaahi hala ʻoe moʻui; te ke fakafonu ʻaki au ʻae fiefia ʻi ho ʻao.’
You revealed to me the ways of life; you will make me full of gladness with your face.'
29 “ʻAe kau tangata mo e kāinga, tuku ke u lea ʻo fakamatala atu kiate kimoutolu ki he ʻeiki ʻi muʻa ko Tevita, he kuo pekia ia pea tanu, pea ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu hono fonualoto ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
Brothers, I can speak to you confidently about the patriarch David, he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
30 Pea ko e palōfita ia, pea naʻa ne ʻilo kuo fuakava ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia, te ne fokotuʻu ʻi hono hako, ʻo fakatatau ki he kakano, ʻae Kalaisi, ke nofo ʻi hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi;
Therefore, he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn with an oath to him, that he would set one of the fruit of his body upon his throne.
31 Pea ʻi heʻene ʻilo ia ʻi muʻa, naʻa ne lea ki he toetuʻu ʻo Kalaisi, ‘Naʻe ʻikai tuku maʻu hono laumālie ʻi hētesi, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe hono sino ʻae ʻauʻauha.’ (Hadēs g86)
He saw what was to happen in the future and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, 'He was neither abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see decay.' (Hadēs g86)
32 Pea ko e Sisu ni kuo fokotuʻu ʻe he ʻOtua, pea ko e kau fakamoʻoni ki ai ʻakimautolu kotoa pē.
This Jesus—God raised him up, of which we all are witnesses.
33 Ko ia, ʻi hono hakeakiʻi ʻe he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ʻi heʻene maʻu mei he Tamai ʻae talaʻofa ʻoe Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, kuo ne huaʻi hifo eni, ʻaia ʻoku mou mamata mo fanongo ki ai ni.
Therefore having been exalted to the right hand of God and having received the promised Holy Spirit from the Father, he has poured out what you see and hear.
34 He naʻe ʻikai ʻalu hake ʻa Tevita ki he langi: ka naʻe pehē mai ʻe ia, ‘Naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova ki heʻeku ʻEiki, Nofo koe ʻi hoku nima toʻomataʻu,
For David did not ascend to the heaven, but he says, 'The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
35 Kae ʻoua ke u ngaohi ho ngaahi fili ko ho tuʻungavaʻe.’
until I make your enemies the stool for your feet.”'
36 “Ko ia ke ʻilo pau ʻe he fale kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, kuo fakanofo ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae Sisu ko ia, ʻaia naʻa mou tutuki ki he ʻakau, ko e ʻEiki mo e Kalaisi.”
Therefore, let all the house of Israel certainly know that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”
37 Pea ʻi heʻenau fanongo eni, naʻe mahuhuhuhu honau loto, pea naʻa nau pehē kia Pita mo hono toe ʻoe kau ʻaposetolo, ʻae kau tangata mo e kāinga, “Ko e hā te mau fai?”
Now when they heard this, they were pierced in their hearts, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”
38 Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita kiate kinautolu, “Fakatomala, pea mou taki taha papitaiso ʻi he huafa ʻo Sisu Kalaisi, ke fakamolemole ai ʻae angahala, pea te mou maʻu mo e foaki ʻoe Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.
Then Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 He ko e talaʻofa eni kiate kimoutolu, mo hoʻomou fānau, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku mamaʻo, ʻaia kotoa pē ʻe ui ʻe he ʻEiki ko hotau ʻOtua.”
For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, as many people as the Lord our God will call.”
40 Pea naʻe lahi ʻae lea kehekehe naʻa ne fakamoʻoni mo akonakiʻaki, ʻo ne pehē, “Mou fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he toʻutangata paongataʻa ni.”
With many other words he testified and urged them; he said, “Save yourselves from this wicked generation.”
41 Pea ko kinautolu naʻe maʻu fiefia ʻene lea, naʻa nau papitaiso: pea ʻi he ʻaho pe ko ia naʻe ului ʻae kakai ʻe toko tolu afe nai.
Then they received his word and were baptized, and there were added in that day about three thousand souls.
42 Pea naʻa nau tuʻumaʻu ʻi he akonaki ʻae kau ʻaposetolo, mo e feʻofoʻofani, mo e tofi ʻoe mā, mo e fehūfekina.
They continued in the apostles' teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread and in prayers.
43 Pea naʻe tō ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻae manavahē: pea naʻe lahi ʻae meʻa fakaofo mo e meʻa mana naʻe fai ʻe he kau ʻaposetolo.
Fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
44 Pea naʻe loto taha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe tui, pea naʻe meʻa taha pē ʻakinautolu;
All who believed were together and had all things in common,
45 Pea naʻa nau fakatau honau ngaahi ʻapi mo ʻenau meʻa, pea tufa ki he kakai taki taha, ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene masiva.
and they sold their property and possessions and distributed them to all, according to the needs anyone had.
46 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu loto taha ki he falelotu lahi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, mo nau tofitofi mā ʻi he ngaahi fale, pea kai ʻenau meʻakai ʻi he fiefia mo e loto taʻekākā,
So day after day they continued with one purpose in the temple, and they broke bread in homes, and they shared food with glad and humble hearts,
47 ‌ʻO fakamālō ki he ʻOtua, pea ʻofeina ʻe he kakai kotoa pē. Pea naʻe fakaului ʻe he ʻEiki kiate kinautolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻakinautolu kuo fakamoʻui.
praising God and having favor with all the people, and every day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved.
