< Luke 10 >

1 Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe fakanofo ʻe he ʻEiki ʻae toko fitungofulu kehe, ʻo ne fekau ke nau ō, ʻo tautau toko ua, ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia ki he kolo mo e potu kotoa pē ʻe ʻalu ia ki ai.
After these things the Lord chose seventy others also, and sent them out two by two before His face, into every place and city, where He was about to come.
2 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku lahi ʻae taʻu, kae tokosiʻi ʻae kau ngāue: ko ia mou kole ai ki he ʻEiki ʻoe taʻu, ke ne fekau atu ʻae kau ngāue ki heʻene taʻu.
And He said to them, The harvest is indeed great, but the laborers are few: therefore pray you the Lord of the harvest, that He may send forth laborers into His harvest.
3 Mou ō: pea vakai, ʻoku ou tuku atu ʻakimoutolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga lami ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fanga ulofi.
Go: behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.
4 ‌ʻOua naʻa toʻo ha kato paʻanga, pe ha kato kai pe ha topuvaʻe; pea ʻoua ʻe fetapa ki ha taha ʻi he hala.
Take neither purse, nor valise, nor sandals: salute no one by the way.
5 Pea ko e fale ko ia te mou hū ki ai, mou tomuʻa lea, ‘Ke ʻi he fale ni ʻae fiemālie.’
Into whatsoever house you may enter, first say, Peace be unto this house.
6 Pea kapau ʻe ʻi ai ʻae foha ʻoe fiemālie, ʻe hoko ki ai hoʻomou fakafiemālie; pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, ʻe toe hoko ia kiate kimoutolu.
And if the son of peace may be there, your peace shall rest upon it: but if not, it shall return unto you.
7 Pea mou nofo ʻi he fale ko ia, ʻo kai mo inu ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa tenau ʻomi; he ʻoku taau mo e tangata ngāue ke ne maʻu haʻane tauhi. Pea ʻoua naʻa fehufaki ki he ngaahi fale.
Abide in the same house, eating and drinking those things which are with them: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
8 Pea ko e kolo ko ia te mou hū ki ai, pea nau maʻu ʻakimoutolu, mou kai ʻae ngaahi meʻa te nau ʻomi kiate kimoutolu.
Into whatsoever city you may enter and they may receive you, eat those things which are placed by you:
9 Pea fakamoʻui ʻae mahaki ʻi ai, pea mou pehē kiate kinautolu, ‘Kuo ofi ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu.’
and heal the sick who are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come nigh unto you.
10 Ka ko e kolo te mou hū ki ai, pea ʻikai te nau maʻu ʻakimoutolu, mou ō ki hono ngaahi hala, ʻo lea [pehē],
And into whatsoever city you may enter, and they may not receive you, having come out into the streets of the same, say,
11 ‘Naʻa mo e efu ʻo hoʻomou kolo, ʻaia ʻoku pikitai kiate kimautolu, ʻoku mau tūtuuʻi [ia ]kiate kimoutolu: ka mou ʻilo pau ʻae meʻa ni, kuo hoko ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu.’
Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to our feet, do we wipe off against you: but know this, that the kingdom of God is at hand.
12 Ka ʻoku ou pehē kiate kimoutolu, ʻE kātakingofua ʻa Sotoma ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻi he kolo ko ia.
For I say unto you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
13 “ʻE malaʻia ʻa koe, Kolesini! ʻE malaʻia ʻa koe, Petesaita! He ka ne fai ʻi Taia mo Saitoni ʻae ngaahi ngāue lahi kuo fai ʻiate kimoutolu, pehē, kuo loa ʻenau fakatomala, ʻonau nofo mo e tauangaʻa ʻi he efuefu.
Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works which were wrought in you had been in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting down in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Ka ʻe kātakingofua ʻa Taia mo Saitoni ʻae fakamaau, ʻiate kimoutolu.
Moreover it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
15 Pea ko koe, Kapaneume, ʻa koe kuo hiki ki he langi, ʻe fakahifo koe ki heli. (Hadēs g86)
And thou, Capernaum, art thou not exalted up to heaven? thou shalt be cast down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 Ko ia ʻoku fanongo kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku fanongo ia kiate au; pea ko ia ʻoku ne liʻaki ʻakimoutolu, ʻoku ne liʻaki au; pea ko ia ʻoku ne liʻaki au, ʻoku ne liʻaki ia kuo ne fekau au.”
He that heareth you heareth me; he that rejecteth you rejecteth me; and he that rejecteth me rejecteth Him that sent me.
17 Pea naʻe liliu mai ʻae toko fitungofulu ʻi he fiefia, mo nau pehē, “ʻEiki, kuo vaivai ʻae kau tēvolo kiate kimautolu ʻi ho huafa.”
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subordinated to us in thy name.
18 Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Naʻaku mamata ki he hinga ʻa Sētane ʻo hangē ko e ʻuhila mei he langi.
And He said to them, I saw Satan having fallen as the lightning from heaven.
19 Vakai, ʻoku ou foaki ʻae mālohi kiate kimoutolu ke malaki hifo ʻae ngaahi ngata, mo e sikopio, pea mo e mālohi kotoa pē ʻoe fili: pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito ha meʻa ʻe lavea ai ʻakimoutolu.
Behold I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall hurt you.
20 Kae ʻoua naʻa fiefia ʻi he meʻa ni, koeʻuhi kuo vaivai ʻae kau laumālie kiate kimoutolu; ka mou fiefia muʻa koeʻuhi kuo tohi homou hingoa ʻi he langi.”
Moreover do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in the heavens.
21 Naʻe fiefia ʻa Sisu ʻi hono laumālie ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ko ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Tamai, ko e ʻEiki ʻoe langi mo māmani, ʻoku ou fakafetaʻi kiate koe, ʻi hoʻo fufū ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni mei he kau poto mo e fieʻiloʻilo, ka kuo ke fakahā ia ki he kau valevale: ke pehē, ʻE Tamai; he ʻoku lelei ia ʻi ho ʻao ke pehē.
At the same hour He rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I praise thee, O Father, Lord of the heaven and the earth, because thou hast hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and revealed them to babes: yea, Father, because it was thus pleasing in thy sight.
22 Kuo tuku ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kiate au ʻe heʻeku Tamai: pea ʻoku ʻikai ke ʻilo ʻe ha taha pe ko hai ʻae ʻAlo, ka ko e Tamai [pe]; pe ko hai ʻae Tamai, ka ko e ʻAlo [pe], pea mo ia ʻe fakahā ia ki ai ʻe he ʻAlo.”
And turning to His disciples, He said, All things have been delivered to me by my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, except the Father; and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom He may wish to reveal Him.
23 Pea naʻe tafoki ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, ʻo lea fufū, [ʻo pehē], “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae mata ʻoku mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku mou mamata ki ai:
And turning to His disciples, privately He said, Happy are your eyes, seeing those things which you see.
24 He ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, naʻe tokolahi ʻae kau palōfita mo e ngaahi tuʻi naʻe holi ke mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku mou mamata ki ai, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau mamata; pea fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku mou fanongo ki ai, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo [ai].”
For I say unto you, that many kings and prophets desired to see those things which you see, and saw them not; and to hear those things which you hear, and heard them not.
25 Pea vakai, naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae akonaki ʻi he fono, ʻo ʻahiʻahi kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki, ko e hā te u fai ke maʻu ai ʻae moʻui taʻengata?” (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a certain lawyer stood up tempting Him, saying, Teacher, having done what shall I inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo tohi ʻi he fono? ʻOku fēfē haʻo lau?”
He said to him, What has been written in the law? how do you read it?
27 Pea lea ia, ʻo ne pehēange, “‘Ke ke ʻofa kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻaki ho loto kotoa, mo ho laumālie kotoa, mo ho ʻatamai kotoa; pea ki ho kaungāʻapi, ʻo hangē pe ko koe.’”
And he responding said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with divine love from all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.
28 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Kuo ke lea totonu: fai eni, pea te ke moʻui.”
And He said to him, You answered correctly: do this, and you shall live.
29 Ka ʻi heʻene fie fakatonuhia ia, naʻa ne pehē kia Sisu, “Ko hai hoku kaungāʻapi?”
But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
30 Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange, “Ko e tangata ʻe tokotaha naʻe ʻalu hifo mei Selūsalema ki Seliko, pea moʻua ia ki he kau kaihaʻa, pea naʻa nau vete ʻiate ia ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, mo taaʻi ia, pea nau ʻalu mei ai kuo ne mei mate.
Jesus responding said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and fell among thieves, who indeed having stripped him of his raiment, administered blows, went away, leaving him half dead.
31 Mo ʻene ʻalu ange ha taulaʻeiki ʻi he hala ko ia; pea mamata ia ki ai, pea ne ʻalu ki he kau hala ʻe taha.
And by chance a certain priest came down that way: and seeing him, passed by on the other side.
32 Pea mo ha Livaite foki, kuo hoko ia ki he potu, pea haʻu ʻo mamata, pea ʻalu ia ki he kau hala ʻe taha.
And likewise also a Levite, being at the place, coming and seeing, passed by on the other side.
33 Ka naʻe fononga ha tangata Samēlia, pea hoko ia ki he potu naʻe ʻi ai ia: pea kuo mamata ia ki ai, pea ne manavaʻofa lahi,
And a certain Samaritan, on a journey, came near him: and seeing, had compassion on him,
34 ‌ʻO ne ʻalu ange, ʻo nonoʻo hono lavea, pea lilingi ki ai ʻae lolo mo e uaine, pea ne fakaheka ia ki heʻene manu, ʻo ne ʻomi ia ki he fale talifononga, ʻo ne tauhi ia.
and having come to him, he bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and having mounted him on his own beast, carried him to a tavern, and cared for him.
35 Pea pongipongi ai, ʻi heʻene ʻalu, naʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae tenali ʻe ua, ʻo ʻatu ki he matāpule, ʻo ne pehē ki ai, ‘Ke ke tauhi ia; pea ko ia kotoa pē te ke toe ange [maʻana], te u totongi kiate koe, ʻo kau ka toe haʻu.’
And on the morrow, taking out two denaria, gave them to the host, and said, Care for him; and whatsoever you expend in addition, on my return, I will pay you.
36 ‌ʻOku ke mahalo, Ko hai ʻi he toko tolu ni naʻe kaungāʻapi kiate ia naʻe moʻua ki he kau kaihaʻa?”
Which one of these three seems to you to have been the neighbor of him who fell among the thieves?
37 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko ia ia ne ne fai ʻofa kiate ia.” Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻAlu koe, pea ke fai pehē pe.”
And he said, The one having done mercy with him. And Jesus said to him, Go, thou, and do likewise.
38 Pea pehē, kuo nau fononga, pea ne hoko ki he potu kakai ʻe taha, pea ko e fefine ko Māʻata hono hingoa, ne ne maʻu ia ki hono fale.
And it came to pass while they were going round, He also came into a certain village: and a certain woman by name Martha received Him into her house.
39 Pea naʻe ai ʻa hono tokoua naʻe ui ko Mele, naʻe nofo foki ia ʻi he vaʻe ʻo Sisu, ʻo fanongo ki heʻene lea.
And there was a sister to her called Mary, who indeed sitting down at the feet of the Lord, continued to hear his word:
40 Ka kuo femouʻekina ʻa Māʻata ʻi he tauhi lahi, pea ne haʻu kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ʻikai te ke tokanga kuo liʻaki au ʻe hoku tokoua ke u ngāue tokotaha pe? Ko ia ke ke fekau ia ke tokoni au.”
and Martha was very busy about much serving. And standing over Him, she said, Lord, is there no care to thee that my sister has left me to serve alone? then say to her that she must assist me.
41 Pea tala ʻe Sisu, ʻo ne pehēange kiate ia, “Māʻata, Māʻata, ʻoku ke femouʻekina mo fetokangaʻaki ʻi he ngaahi meʻa lahi:
And the Lord responding said to her, Martha, Martha, you are solicitous and encumbered concerning many things:
42 ka ko e meʻa pe taha ʻoku ʻaonga: pea kuo fili ʻe Mele ʻae meʻa lelei, ʻaia ʻe ʻikai toʻo meiate ia.”
but there is need of one thing: for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken from her.
