< 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.
Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself 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 unto them, The harvest is plenteous, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth labourers 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 your ways: 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.
Carry no purse, no wallet, no shoes: and salute no man on the way.
5 Pea ko e fale ko ia te mou hū ki ai, mou tomuʻa lea, ‘Ke ʻi he fale ni ʻae fiemālie.’
And into whatsoever house ye shall enter, first say, Peace [be] to 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 a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him: but if not, it shall turn to you again.
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.
And in that same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer 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.
And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before 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 that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is 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],
But into whatsoever city ye shall enter, and they receive you not, go out into the streets thereof and 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, we do wipe off against you: howbeit know this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh.
12 Ka ʻoku ou pehē kiate kimoutolu, ʻE kātakingofua ʻa Sotoma ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻi he kolo ko ia.
I say unto you, It shall 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 had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Ka ʻe kātakingofua ʻa Taia mo Saitoni ʻae fakamaau, ʻiate kimoutolu.
Howbeit 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, shalt thou be exalted unto heaven? thou shalt be brought down unto 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; and 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 devils are subject unto 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 unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as 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 in any wise 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.”
Howbeit in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.
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.
In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was well-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.”
All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, save the Father; and who the Father is, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth 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 the disciples, he said privately, Blessed [are] the eyes which see the things that ye 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 prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye 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 and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo tohi ʻi he fono? ʻOku fēfē haʻo lau?”
And he said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
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 answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Kuo ke lea totonu: fai eni, pea te ke moʻui.”
And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
29 Ka ʻi heʻene fie fakatonuhia ia, naʻa ne pehē kia Sisu, “Ko hai hoku kaungāʻapi?”
But he, desiring to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
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 made answer and said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and he fell among robbers, which both stripped him and beat him, and departed, 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 was going down that way: and when he saw him, he 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 in like manner a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, 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,
But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
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 came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on [them] oil and wine; and he set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of 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 he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, I, when I come back again, will repay thee.
36 ‌ʻOku ke mahalo, Ko hai ʻi he toko tolu ni naʻe kaungāʻapi kiate ia naʻe moʻua ki he kau kaihaʻa?”
Which of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbour unto him that fell among the robbers?
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, He that shewed mercy on him. And Jesus said unto him, Go, and do thou 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.
Now as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named 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 she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at the Lord’s feet, and heard 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.”
But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came up to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister did leave me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41 Pea tala ʻe Sisu, ʻo ne pehēange kiate ia, “Māʻata, Māʻata, ʻoku ke femouʻekina mo fetokangaʻaki ʻi he ngaahi meʻa lahi:
But the Lord answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about 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 one thing is needful: for Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
