Sione 21
1 Hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe toe fakahā ia ʻe Sisu ki heʻene kau ākonga ʻi he tahi ʻo Taipiliō; pea naʻe pehē hono fakahā.
After this, Jesus again showed Himself to the disciples. It was at the Lake of Tiberias. The circumstances were as follows.
2 Naʻe fakataha ʻa Saimone Pita, mo Tōmasi naʻe ui ko Titimasi, mo Nātaniela ʻo Kena ʻo Kāleli, mo e ongo foha ʻo Sepeti, mo ʻene kau ākonga kehe ʻe toko ua.
Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of the Master's disciples.
3 Pea lea ʻa Saimone Pita kiate kinautolu, “Te u ʻalu ʻo fai kupenga.” Pea nau pehē kiate ia, “Te tau ō foki mo koe.” Pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu leva, ʻo heka vaka; pea ko e pō ko ia naʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ha meʻa.
Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." "We will go too," said they. So they set out and went on board their boat; but they caught nothing that night.
4 Pea pongipongi hake, ʻoku tuʻu ʻa Sisu ʻi matātahi: ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he kau ākonga ko Sisu ia.
When, however, day was now dawning, Jesus stood on the beach, though the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
5 Pea lea ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Fānau, ʻoku ai haʻamou meʻakai?” Pea nau talaange kiate ia, “ʻIkai.”
He called to them. "Children," He said, "have you any food there?" "No," they answered.
6 Pea tala ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻAʻau ʻae kupenga ʻi he mataʻu ʻoe vaka, pea te mou maʻu.” Pea nau ʻaʻau ai, pea ʻikai ai ke nau faʻa toho ia koeʻuhi ko e lahi ʻoe ika.
"Throw the net in on the right hand side," He said, "and you will find fish." So they threw the net in, and now they could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish.
7 Ko ia naʻe lea ai kia Pita ʻae ākonga ko ia naʻe ʻofa ai ʻa Sisu, “Ko e ʻEiki ia.” Pea kuo fanongo leva ʻa Saimone Pita ko e ʻEiki, pea nonoʻo ʻe ia hono kofu fakatoutai, (he naʻe vete ia, ) pea hopo ia ki tahi.
This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, "It is the Master." Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words, "It is the Master," drew on his fisherman's shirt--for he had not been wearing it--put on his girdle, and sprang into the water.
8 Pea haʻu hono toe ʻoe kau ākonga he vaka siʻi; (he naʻe ʻikai te nau mamaʻo mei ʻuta, ka ko e hanga ʻe fāngeau nai, ) ʻonau toho ʻae kupenga mo e ika.
But the rest of the disciples came in the small boat (for they were not far from land--only about a hundred yards off), dragging the net full of fish.
9 Pea ʻi heʻenau aʻu ki ʻuta, naʻa nau mamata ki he afi kuo tafu, pea mo e ika kuo tunu ai mo e mā.
As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there, with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.
10 Pea tala ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻOmi ʻae ika kuo mou toki maʻu ni.”
Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they had just caught.
11 Pea ʻalu ʻa Saimone Pita, ʻo toho ʻae kupenga ki ʻuta, ʻoku fonu ʻi he ngaahi ika lalahi, ko e teau ma nimangofulu mo e [ika ]ʻe tolu: ko e meʻa lahi ʻaupito, ka naʻe ʻikai mahae ʻae kupenga.
So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there were so many, the net had not broken.
12 Pea lea ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Haʻu ʻo kai.” Pea naʻe ʻikai faʻa fehuʻi ʻe ha taha ʻi he kau ākonga kiate ia, “Ko hai koe?” He naʻa nau ʻilo ko e ʻEiki.
"Come this way and have breakfast," said Jesus. But not one of the disciples ventured to question Him as to who He was, for they felt sure that it was the Master.
13 Pea haʻu ai ʻa Sisu, ʻo toʻo ʻae mā, ʻo ʻatu kiate kinautolu, mo e ika foki.
Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave them some, and the fish in the same way.
14 Pea ko hono liunga tolu eni ʻoe fakahā ia ʻe Sisu ki heʻene kau ākonga, hili ʻene toetuʻu mei he mate.
This was now the third occasion on which Jesus showed Himself to the disciples after He had risen from among the dead.
15 Pea hili ʻenau kai, pea lea ʻa Sisu kia Saimone Pita, Saimone, ko e foha ʻo Sonasi, “ʻOku lahi hake hoʻo ʻofa kiate au ʻiate kinautolu ni?” Pea talaange ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻIo, ʻEiki; ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻoku ou ʻofa kiate koe.” Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Fafanga ʻeku fanga lami.”
When they had finished breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?" "Yes, Master," was his answer; "you know that you are dear to me." "Then feed my lambs," replied Jesus.
16 Pea toe lea ia ki ai ko hono tuʻo ua, “Saimone, ko e foha ʻo Sonasi, ʻoku ke ʻofa kiate au?” Pea talaange ʻe ia ki ai, “ʻIo, ʻEiki; ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻoku ou ʻofa kiate koe.” Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Fafanga ʻeku fanga sipi.”
Again a second time He asked him, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" "Yes, Master," he said, "you know that you are dear to me." "Then be a shepherd to my sheep," He said.
17 Pea lea ʻe ia kiate ia ko hono liunga tolu, “Saimone, ko e foha ʻo Sonasi, ʻoku ke ʻofa kiate au?” Pea mamahi ʻa Pita ʻi heʻene lea ko hono liunga tolu kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻofa kiate au?” Pea talaange ʻe ia ki ai, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi ʻae meʻa kotoa pē; ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi ʻoku ou ʻofa kiate koe.” Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Fafanga ʻeku fanga sipi.
A third time Jesus put the question: "Simon, son of John, am I dear to you?" It grieved Peter that Jesus asked him the third time, "Am I dear to you?" "Master," he replied, "you know everything, you can see that you are dear to me." "Then feed my much-loved sheep," said Jesus.
18 Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate koe, ʻI hoʻo kei talavou, naʻa ke nonoʻo koe, ʻo ke ʻeveʻeva ko hoʻo faʻiteliha: ka ʻoka ke ka motuʻa, te ke mafao atu ho nima, pea ʻe nonoʻo koe ʻe ha tokotaha, ʻo ʻave koe ki he potu ʻe ʻikai te ke loto ki ai.”
"In most solemn truth I tell you that whereas, when you were young, you used to put on your girdle and walk whichever way you chose, when you have grown old you will stretch out your arms and some one else will put a girdle round you and carry you where you have no wish to go."
19 Naʻa ne lea ʻaki eni, ko e fakahā ʻae mateʻanga ko ia te ne fakaongoongolelei ai ʻae ʻOtua. Pea hili ʻene lea pehē, pea ne pehē ki ai, “Muimui mai kiate au.”
This He said to indicate the kind of death by which that disciple would bring glory to God; and after speaking thus He said to him, "Follow me."
20 Pea tafoki ki mui ʻa Pita, ʻo mamata ki he ākonga. Ko ia naʻe ʻofa ai ʻa Sisu, ʻoku muimui mai; ʻaia foki naʻe faʻaki ki hono fatafata ʻi he kai ʻoe ʻohomohe, ʻo ne pehē ai, “ʻEiki, ko hai ia ʻoku ne lavakiʻi koe?”
Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus loved following--the one who at the supper had leaned back on His breast and had asked, "Master, who is it that is betraying you?"
21 Pea mamata ʻa Pita kiate ia, pea ne pehē kia Sisu, “ʻEiki, pea ʻe fēfē ʻae tangata ni?”
On seeing him, Peter asked Jesus, "And, Master, what about him?"
22 Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Kapau ko hoku loto ke tatali ia ke ʻoua ke u haʻu, ko e hā ia kiate koe? Muimui koe ʻiate au.”
"If I desire him to remain till I come," replied Jesus, "what concern is that of yours? You, yourself, must follow me."
23 Pea mafola ʻae tala ni ki he kāinga, ʻe ʻikai mate ʻae ākonga ko ia: ka naʻe ʻikai tala ʻe Sisu kiate ia, ʻE ʻikai mate ia; kae [pehē], “Kapau ʻoku ou loto ke tatali ia ke ʻoua ke u haʻu, ko e hā ia kiate koe?”
Hence the report spread among the brethren that that disciple would never die. Yet Jesus did not say, "He is not to die," but, "If I desire him to remain till I come, what concern is that of yours?"
24 Ko eni ʻae ākonga ko ia ʻaia ʻoku ne fakapapau ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻo ne tohi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni: pea ʻoku mau ʻilo ʻoku moʻoni ʻene fakamoʻoni.
That is the disciple who gives his testimony as to these matters, and has written this history; and we know that his testimony is true.
25 Pea ʻoku ai mo e ngaahi meʻa kehekehe naʻe fai ʻe Sisu, ʻa ia, ka ne tohi kotoa pē, ʻoku ou mahalo ʻe meimei ʻikai hao ʻi māmani ʻae ngaahi tohi ʻaia ʻe tohi ai. ʻEmeni.
But there are also many other things which Jesus did--so vast a number indeed that if they were all described in detail, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would have to be written.
