Kau ʻAposetolo 3
1 Pea naʻe ʻohake fakataha ʻa Pita mo Sione ki he falelotu lahi ʻi he feituʻulaʻā lotu, ʻaia ko hono hiva.
One day Peter and John were going up to the Temple for the hour of prayer--the ninth hour--and, just then,
2 Pea ko e tangata ʻe taha naʻe pipiki talu hono fanauʻi, naʻe fata ange ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ʻo tuku ʻi he matapā ʻoe falelotu lahi ʻaia naʻe ui ko e Fakasanisani, ke kole kiate kinautolu naʻe hū ki he falelotu lahi;
some men were carrying there one who had been lame from birth, whom they were wont to place every day close to the Beautiful Gate (as it was called) of the Temple, for him to beg from the people as they went in.
3 Pea mamata ia kia Pita mo Sione ʻoku fai ke na hū ki he falelotu lahi, pea ne kole.
Seeing Peter and John about to go into the Temple, he asked them for alms.
4 Pea sio fakamamaʻu ʻa Pita mo Sione kiate ia, ʻo na pehē, “Sio mai kiate kimaua.”
Peter fixing his eyes on him, as John did also, said, "Look at us."
5 Pea tokanga atu ia kiate kinaua, ʻo ʻamanaki te ne maʻu ha meʻa ʻiate kinaua.
So he looked and waited, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita, “Ko e siliva mo e koula ʻoku ʻikai te u maʻu; ka ko ia ʻoku ou maʻu te u foaki kiate koe: ʻi he huafa ʻo Sisu Kalaisi ʻo Nāsaleti tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu.”
"I have no silver or gold," Peter said, "but what I have, I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene-- walk!"
7 Pea naʻa ne puke ia ʻi hono nima toʻomataʻu, ʻo fokotuʻu hake ia: pea naʻe mālohi leva hono vaʻe mo hono tungaʻivaʻe.
Then taking his hand Peter lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankles were strengthened.
8 Pea hopo hake ia ʻo tuʻu, mo ʻeveʻeva, pea nau hū fakataha mo ia ki he falelotu lahi, kuo ʻeveʻeva, mo hopohopo, pea fakamālō ki he ʻOtua.
Leaping up, he stood upright and began to walk, and went into the Temple with them, walking, leaping, and praising God.
9 Pea naʻe mamata ʻae kakai kotoa pē kiate ia, ʻoku ʻeveʻeva mo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua;
All the people saw him walking and praising God;
10 Pea naʻa nau ʻilo ko ia ia naʻe nofo ʻo kole ʻi he matapā Fakasanisani ʻoe falelotu lahi: pea naʻe mātuʻaki ofo ʻakinautolu mo fakatumutumu ʻi he meʻa kuo fai kiate ia.
and recognizing him as the man who used to sit at the Beautiful Gate of the Temple asking for alms, they were filled with awe and amazement at what had happened to him.
11 Pea ʻi heʻene kei puke kia Pita mo Sione ʻe he tangata pipiki kuo fakamoʻui, naʻe feleleʻi ki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻoku nau ofo lahi, ki he fale hala, ʻoku fakahingoa kia Solomone.
While he still clung to Peter and John, the people, awe-struck, ran up crowding round them in what was known as Solomon's Portico.
12 Pea kuo mamata ʻa Pita ki ai, pea pehē ʻe ia ki he kakai, “ʻAe kau tangata ʻIsileli, ko e hā ʻoku mou ofo ai ʻi he meʻa ni? Pea ko e hā ʻoku mou sio fakamamaʻu ai kiate kimaua, ʻo hangē kuo ma ngaohi ʻi haʻama mālohi pe māʻoniʻoni ʻamaua ke ʻeveʻeva ʻae tangata ni?
Peter, seeing this, spoke to the people. "Israelites," he said, "why do you wonder at this man? Or why gaze at us, as though by any power or piety of our own we had enabled him to walk?
13 Ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo Sēkope, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe tau ngaahi tamai, kuo ne fakaongoongolelei hono ʻAlo ko Sisu; ʻaia naʻa mou tukuakiʻi pea liʻaki ʻi he ʻao ʻo Pailato, ka naʻe mātuʻaki loto ia ki hono tukuange.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our forefathers, has conferred this honour on His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and disowned in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to let Him go.
14 Ka naʻa mou liʻaki ʻae tokotaha māʻoniʻoni mo angatonu, pea kole ke tuku ʻae tangata fakapō kiate kimoutolu;
Yes, you disowned the holy and righteous One, and asked as a favour the release of a murderer.
15 Kae tāmateʻi ʻae ʻEiki ʻoe moʻui, ʻaia kuo fokotuʻu ʻe he ʻOtua mei he mate; pea ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimautolu ki ai.
The Prince of Life you put to death; but God has raised Him from the dead, and we are witnesses as to that.
16 Pea ko hono huafa, ko e tui ki hono huafa, kuo ne fakamālohi ʻae tangata ni, ʻaia ʻoku mou mamata pea ʻiloʻi: ʻio, ko e tui kiate ia, kuo maʻu ai ʻe he tangata ni ʻae moʻui haohaoa ni ʻi he ʻao ʻomoutolu kotoa pē.
It is His name-- faith in that name being the condition--which has strengthened this man whom you behold and know; and the faith which He has given has made this man sound and strong again, as you can all see.
17 “Pea ko eni, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ou ʻilo ne mou fai ia ʻi he vale, pea pehē foki mo hoʻomou kau pule.
"And now, brethren, I know that it was in ignorance that you did it, as was the case with your rulers also.
18 Ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ko ia naʻe tomuʻa fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻene kau palōfita kotoa pē, ʻe mamahi ai ʻa Kalaisi, kuo ne fakamoʻoni ia.
But in this way God has fulfilled the declarations He made through all the Prophets, that His Christ would suffer.
19 Ko ia ke mou fakatomala, pea liliu, ke fakamolemole ai hoʻomou angahala, koeʻuhi ke hoko mai ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe fakamoʻui mei he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki;
Repent, therefore, and reform your lives, so that the record of your sins may be cancelled, and that there may come seasons of revival from the Lord,
20 Pea te ne fekau mai ʻa Sisu Kalaisi, ʻaia naʻe tomuʻa malangaʻaki kiate kimoutolu:
and that He may send the Christ appointed beforehand for you--even Jesus.
21 ʻAia ʻe maʻu ʻe he langi, kaeʻoua ke hoko mai ʻae kuonga ʻoe liliu ʻoe meʻa kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo lea ki ai ʻae ʻOtua ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻene kau palōfita māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē talu mei he ngaohi ʻa māmani. (aiōn g165)
Heaven must receive Him until those times of which God has spoken from the earliest ages through the lips of His holy Prophets--the times of the reconstitution of all things. (aiōn g165)
22 He naʻe lea moʻoni ʻa Mōsese ki he ngaahi tamai, [ʻo pehē], ‘ʻE fokotuʻu ʻe he ʻEiki ko homou ʻOtua ha palōfita kiate kimoutolu ʻi homou kāinga, ʻo hangē ko au; pea te mou fanongo kiate ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē te ne leaʻaki kiate kimoutolu.
Moses declared, "'The Lord your God will raise up a Prophet for you from among your brethren as He has raised me. In all that He says to you, you must listen to Him.
23 Pea ʻe pehē, ko e tangata kotoa pē ʻe ʻikai tokanga ki he palōfita ko ia, ʻe fakaʻauha ia mei he kakai.’
And every one, without exception, who refuses to listen to that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the People.'
24 ʻIo, pea ko e kau palōfita kotoa pē meia Samuela mo kinautolu ki mui ni, ʻakinautolu naʻe lea, naʻa nau kikite ki he ngaahi ʻaho ni.
Yes, and all the Prophets, from Samuel onwards--all who have spoken--have also announced the coming of this present time.
25 Ko e fānau ʻae kau palōfita ʻakimoutolu, pea mo e fuakava naʻe fai ʻe he ʻOtua mo ʻetau ngaahi tamai, ʻi heʻene pehē kia ʻEpalahame, ‘Pea ʻi ho hako ʻe monūʻia ʻae faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻo māmani.’
"You are the heirs of the Prophets, and of the Covenant which God made with your forefathers when He said to Abraham, 'And through your posterity all the families of the world shall be blessed.'
26 Pea ʻi he fokotuʻu ʻe he ʻOtua hono ʻAlo ko Sisu, kuo ne tomuʻa fekau ia kiate kimoutolu, ke ne tāpuakiʻi ʻakimoutolu, ʻi he tafoki ʻakimoutolu taki taha mei heʻene hia.”
It is to you first that God, after raising His Servant from the grave, has sent Him to bless you, by causing every one of you to turn from your wickedness."
