Luke 8
1 Pea pehē, kuo hili ia, naʻa ne ʻalu ʻi he kolo mo e potu kakai kotoa pē, ʻo malanga mo fakahā ʻae ongoongolelei ʻoe ʻOtua: pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua,
And it came to pass thereafter, that He was going through every city and village, preaching and proclaiming good news of the Kingdom of God, and the Twelve [are] with Him,
2 Pea mo e kau fefine naʻe fakamoʻui mei he kau laumālie kovi, mo e ngaahi mahaki, ko Mele ʻoku ui ko Makitaline, ʻaia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae tēvolo ʻe toko fitu,
and certain women who were healed of evil spirits and sicknesses, Mary who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth,
3 Mo Sioana ko e uaifi ʻo Kusa ko e tauhi koloa ʻo Helota, mo Susana, mo e tokolahi kehe, naʻa nau tauhi ʻaki ia ʻenau koloa.
and Joanna wife of Chuza, steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many others, who were ministering to Him from their substance.
4 Pea kuo fakataha mai ʻae fuʻu kakai, kuo haʻu mei he kolo kotoa pē kiate ia, pea pehē ʻe ia ʻi he fakatātā:
And a great multitude having gathered, and those who from city and city were coming to Him, He spoke by an allegory:
5 “Naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae tangata tūtuuʻi ke tūtuuʻi ʻene tenga; pea ʻi heʻene tūtuuʻi, naʻe mokulu ʻae niʻihi ki he veʻe hala: pea malaki hifo ia, pea naʻe kai ʻo ʻosi ia ʻe he fanga manupuna ʻoe ʻatā.
“The sower went forth to sow his seed, and in his sowing some indeed fell beside the way, and it was trodden down, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6 Pea mokulu ʻae niʻihi ki he maka; pea kuo toki tupu hake ia, pea mae [leva], koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai viviku ia.
And other fell on the rock, and having sprung up, it withered, through having no moisture.
7 Pea mokulu ʻae niʻihi ki he ʻakau talatala; pea tupu hake mo ia ʻae ʻakau talatala, ʻo kāsia ai ia.
And other fell amidst the thorns, and the thorns having sprung up with it, choked it.
8 Pea mokulu ʻae niʻihi ki he kelekele lelei, ʻo tupu hake, pea tupu ai ʻae fua ʻe teau.” Pea kuo ne lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, pea kalanga ia, “Ko ia ʻoku ne telinga. Ongo, ke ongoʻi ia.”
And other fell on the good ground, and having sprung up, it made fruit a hundredfold.” Saying these things, He was calling, “He having ears to hear—let him hear.”
9 Pea naʻe fehuʻi ʻa ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā nai [hono ʻuhinga ]ʻoe fakatātā ni?”
And His disciples were questioning Him, saying, “What may this allegory be?”
10 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo tuku ke ʻilo ʻekimoutolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa lilo ʻoe puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua: ka ki he kakai kehe ʻi he ngaahi fakatātā; koeʻuhi kenau ʻā ka ʻe ʻikai mamata, pea fanongo ka ʻe ʻikai ʻilo.
And He said, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest in allegories, that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
11 “Pea ko e fakatātā eni: Ko e tenga ko e folofola ia ʻae ʻOtua.
And this is the allegory: the seed is the word of God,
12 Ko kinautolu [eni ]ʻi he veʻe hala, ʻoku nau fanongo; pea toki haʻu ʻae tēvolo, ʻo ne toʻo atu ʻae folofola ʻi honau loto, telia naʻa nau tui pea moʻui ai.
and those beside the way are those hearing, then comes the Devil, and takes up the word from their heart, lest having believed, they may be saved.
13 Ko kinautolu [eni ]ʻi he maka, ʻaia ʻoku fanongo, pea maʻu ʻae folofola ʻi he fiefia; ka ʻoku ʻikai hanau aka, pea ʻoku nau tui fuoloa siʻi pe, pea ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ʻahiʻahi ʻoku nau hinga ai.
And those on the rock: they who, when they may hear, receive the word with joy, and these have no root, who for a time believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
14 Pea ko ia naʻe mokulu ki he ʻakau talatala, ko kinautolu eni ʻoku fanongo pea ʻalu atu, ka ko e tokanga [mamahi ]mo e koloa mo e fiefia ʻi māmani, ʻoku kāsia ai ia, pea ʻe ʻikai ai ha fua ke haohaoa.
And that which fell to the thorns: these are they who have heard, and going forth, through anxieties, and riches, and pleasures of life, are choked, and do not bear to completion.
15 Ka ko ia ʻoku ʻi he kelekele moʻui, ko kinautolu eni ʻoku nau fanongo ki he folofola, ʻo maʻu [ia ]ki he loto totonu mo lelei, pea fakatupu ʻae fua ʻi he fakakukafi.
And that in the good ground: these are they who in an upright and good heart, having heard the word, retain [it], and bear fruit in continuance.
16 “ʻOku ʻikai ha tangata te ne tutu ʻae maama, ke fakapulonga ʻaki ʻae ipu, pe tuku [ia ]ki he lalo mohenga; kae fokotuʻu [ia ]ki ha tuʻunga, koeʻuhi ke mamata ki he maama ʻakinautolu ʻoku [ʻi ai].
And no one having lighted a lamp covers it with a vessel, or puts [it] under a bed; but he puts [it] on a lampstand, that those coming in may see the light,
17 He ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻoku lilo, ʻe taʻefakahā; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻoku fufū, ʻe taʻeʻiloa pe taʻemafola kituʻa.
for nothing is secret, that will not become visible, nor hid, that will not be known and become visible.
18 Ko ia mou tokanga ki hoʻomou fanongo: he ko ia ʻoku maʻu, ʻe foaki kiate ia pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai te ne maʻu, ʻe toʻo meiate ia ʻaia ʻoku ne mahalo kuo ne maʻu.”
See, therefore, how you hear, for whoever may have, there will be given to him, and whoever may not have, also what he seems to have will be taken from him.”
19 Pea haʻu ai kiate ia ʻa ʻene faʻē mo hono kāinga, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ofi kiate ia, ko e meʻa ʻi he kakai.
And there came to Him His mother and brothers, and they were not able to get to Him because of the multitude,
20 Pea naʻe fakahā kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoʻo faʻē mo ho kāinga ʻoku tutuʻu ʻituʻa, ko ʻenau holi ke mamata kiate koe.”
and it was told Him, saying, “Your mother and Your brothers stand outside, wishing to see You”;
21 Pea lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko ʻeku faʻē mo hoku kāinga ʻakinautolu ni ʻoku fanongo ki he folofola ʻae ʻOtua, mo fai ki ai.”
and He answering said to them, “My mother and My brothers! They are those who are hearing the word of God, and doing.”
22 Pea pehē, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe taha, naʻe heka vaka ia mo ʻene kau ākonga: pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ke tau ō ki he kauvai ʻe taha. Pea naʻa nau tuku atu.”
And it came to pass, on one of the days, that He Himself went into a boat with His disciples, and He said to them, “We may go over to the other side of the lake”; and they set forth,
23 Ka ʻi heʻenau folau naʻe mohe ia: pea naʻe tō hifo ki he tahi ʻae taufa lahi: pea ngotofuʻu [ʻae vaka], pea nau tuʻutāmaki ai.
and as they are sailing He fell deeply asleep, and there came down a storm of wind to the lake, and they were filling, and were in peril.
24 Pea naʻa nau haʻu, ʻo fafangu ia, mo nau pehē, “ʻEiki, ʻeiki, kuo tau mate.” Pea tuʻu hake ia, ʻo lolomi ʻae matangi mo e hou ʻae tahi; pea tuku ia, ʻo tofukī.
And having come near, they awoke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we perish!” And He, having arisen, rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there came a calm,
25 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Kofaʻā hoʻomou tui?” Ka naʻe manavahē mo ofo ʻakinautolu, ʻonau fepehēʻaki, “Ko hai nai ʻae tangata ni! He ʻoku fekau ʻe ia ki he matangi mo e tahi, pea ʻoku talangofua ia kiate ia.”
and He said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they being afraid wondered, saying to one another, “Who, then, is this, that He even commands the winds and the water, and they obey Him?”
26 Pea naʻa nau tau ki he fonua ʻoe kakai Katala, ʻaia ʻoku hangatonu ki Kāleli.
And they sailed down to the region of the Gadarenes that is opposite Galilee,
27 Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu ki ʻuta, naʻe fakafetaulaki mai kiate ia ʻae tangata ʻe tokotaha mei he kolo, naʻe fuoloa ʻae ulusino ʻiate ia ʻae kau tēvolo, naʻe ʻikai ke vala, pe nofo fale, ka ʻi he ngaahi faʻitoka.
and He having gone forth on the land, there met Him a certain man, out of the city, who had demons for a long time, and was not clothed with a garment, and was not abiding in a house, but in the tombs,
28 Pea mamata ia kia Sisu, pea kalanga, mo fakatōmapeʻe ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo [tangi ]leʻo lahi, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Sisu, ʻAlo ʻoe fungani ʻOtua māʻolunga, ko e hā au kiate koe? ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ʻoua ʻe fakamamahiʻi au.”
and having seen Jesus, and having cried out, he fell before Him, and with a loud voice, said, “What [regards] me and You, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I implore You, may You not afflict me!”
29 (He kuo fekau ʻe ia ki he laumālie ʻuli ke haʻu kituʻa mei he tangata. He kuo liunga lahi hono puke ia: pea naʻe maʻu ia ʻi hono haʻisia ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ukamea fihifihi mo e ngaahi ukamea fakamaʻu; kae motuhi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi haʻi, pea tuli ia ʻe he tēvolo ki he toafa.)
For He commanded the unclean spirit to come forth from the man, for many times it had caught him, and he was being bound with chains and shackles—guarded, and breaking apart the bonds he was driven by the demons into the deserts.
30 Pea fehuʻi ʻa Sisu kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko hai ho hingoa?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko Lisione:” koeʻuhi kuo hū kiate ia ʻae kau tēvolo tokolahi.
And Jesus questioned him, saying, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion,” because many demons were entered into him,
31 Pea naʻa nau kole kiate ia, ke ʻoua te ne fekau ʻakinautolu ke nau ʻalu atu ki he loloto. (Abyssos g12)
and he was calling on Him that He may not command them to go away into the abyss, (Abyssos g12)
32 Pea naʻe ai ʻae fanga puaka lahi naʻe fafanga ʻi he moʻunga: pea naʻa nau kole kiate ia ke ne tuku ke nau hū ki ai. Pea ne tukuange ia.
and there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they were calling on Him that He might permit them to enter into these, and He permitted them,
33 Pea ʻalu atu [leva ]ʻae kau tēvolo ʻi he tangata, ʻonau hū ki he fanga puaka; pea feleleʻi ʻo ʻoho ʻae fanga puaka ʻi he potu tahifohifo ki tahi, ʻo melemo ai.
and the demons having gone forth from the man, entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.
34 Pea kuo mamata ʻae kau tauhimanu ki he meʻa kuo fai, pea nau feholaki, ʻo ʻalu ʻo fakahā ʻi he kolo mo e tukuʻuta.
And those feeding [them], having seen what was come to pass, fled, and having gone, told [it] to the city, and to the fields;
35 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu ke vakai pe ko e hā kuo fai, ʻo haʻu kia Sisu, pea ʻilo ʻae tangata, ʻaia kuo ʻalu ai ʻae kau tēvolo, ʻoku nofo ia ʻi he vaʻe ʻo Sisu, kuo kofu, pea poto hono loto: pea naʻa nau manavahē ai.
and they came forth to see what was come to pass, and they came to Jesus, and found the man sitting, out of whom the demons had gone forth, clothed, and right-minded, at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid;
36 Pea ko kinautolu foki naʻe mamata [ki ai], naʻa nau tala kiate kinautolu ʻae ngāue kuo moʻui ai ia, ʻaia naʻe ulusino ai ʻae kau tēvolo.
and those also having seen [it], told them how the demoniac was saved.
37 Pea toki kole ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua ʻoe kau Katala ke ʻalu ia ʻiate kinautolu; he kuo nau pukea ʻi he ilifia lahi: pea heka ia ki vaka, ʻo [toe ]liu mai.
And the whole multitude of the region of the Gadarenes asked Him to go away from them, because they were pressed with great fear, and He having entered into the boat, turned back.
38 Pea ko e tangata naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae kau tēvolo, naʻa ne kole kiate ia ke na nonofo mo ia: ka naʻe fekau ʻe Sisu ke ʻalu ia, ʻo ne pehē,
And the man from whom the demons had gone forth was imploring of Him to be with Him, and Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 “Toe ʻalu koe ki ho fale, ʻo fakahā ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua kiate koe.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ia, ʻo ne ongoongoa ʻi he kolo kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi kuo fai ʻe Sisu kiate ia.
“Return to your house, and tell how God did great things to you”; and he went away through all the city proclaiming how Jesus did great things to him.
40 Pea pehē, kuo foki ange ʻa Sisu, naʻe [toe ]maʻu fiefia ia ʻe he kakai: he naʻa nau tatali kotoa pē kiate ia.
And it came to pass, in the turning back of Jesus, the multitude received Him, for they were all looking for Him,
41 Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae tangata ko Sailosi hono hingoa, ko e pule ia ʻi he falelotu; pea ne fakatōmapeʻe ki he vaʻe ʻo Sisu, ʻo kole kiate ia ke haʻu ki hono fale:
and behold, there came a man whose name [is] Jairus, and he was a chief of the synagogue, and having fallen at the feet of Jesus, was calling on Him to come to his house,
42 He kuo taha pe hono ʻofefine, pea kuo hongofulu ma ua nai hono taʻu pea kuo tei mate ia. Ka ʻi heʻene ʻalu naʻe fakaʻefi ia ʻe he kakai.
because he had an only daughter about twelve years [old], and she was dying. And in His going away, the multitudes were thronging Him,
43 Pea ko e fefine ʻe tokotaha naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae ʻau ʻoe toto, ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma ua, pea kuo fakaʻosi ʻe ia ʻa ʻene meʻa kotoa pē ki he kau faitoʻo, ka naʻe ʻikai ke moʻui ia ʻi ha taha,
and a woman, being with a flow of blood for twelve years, who, having spent all her living on physicians, was not able to be healed by any,
44 Naʻe haʻu ia ki [hono ]tuʻa, ʻo ala ki he kapa ʻo hono kofu: pea matuʻu leva ʻae ʻau ʻo hono toto.
having come near behind, touched the fringe of His garment, and immediately the flow of her blood stood still.
45 Pea pehē ʻe Sisu, “Ko hai kuo ala kiate au?” Pea kuo nau ʻikai kotoa pē, pea pehē ʻe Pita mo kinautolu naʻa nau ʻiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku fakaʻefi mo kāpui koe ʻe he kakai, pea ʻoku ke pehē, ‘Ko hai kuo ala kiate au?’”
And Jesus said, “Who [is] it that touched Me?” And all denying, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press You, and throng [You], and You say, Who [is] it that touched Me?”
46 Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu, “Kuo ala ha taha kiate au: he ʻoku ou ʻilo kuo ʻalu ʻae mālohi ʻiate au.”
And Jesus said, “Someone touched Me, for I knew power having gone forth from Me.”
47 Pea kuo ʻilo ʻe he fefine ʻoku ʻikai lilo ia, pea haʻu tetetete ia, ʻo fakatōmapeʻe ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo ne fakahā kiate ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene ala kiate ia, pea mo ʻene moʻui ai leva.
And the woman, having seen that she was not hid, trembling, came, and having fallen before Him, for what cause she touched Him declared to Him before all the people, and how she was healed instantly;
48 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻOfefine, ke ke fiemālie: kuo fakamoʻui koe ʻe hoʻo tui; ʻalu ʻo fiemālie.”
and He said to her, “Take courage, daughter, your faith has saved you, be going on to peace.”
49 Pea naʻe lolotonga ʻene lea, mo ʻene haʻu ʻae tokotaha mei he [fale ʻoe ]pule ʻoe falelotu, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kuo pekia ho ʻofefine; ʻoua naʻa fakafiuʻi ʻae ʻEiki.”
While He is yet speaking, there comes a certain one from the chief of the synagogue’s [house], saying to him, “Your daughter has died, do not harass the Teacher”;
50 Ka kuo fanongo ki ai ʻa Sisu, pea lea ia, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “ʻOua te ke manavahē: ka ke tui pe, pea ʻe fakamoʻui ia.”
and Jesus having heard, answered him, saying, “Do not be afraid, only believe, and she will be saved.”
51 Pea kuo haʻu ia ki he fale, naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ke hū [ki ai ]ha taha, ka ko Pita, mo Semisi, mo Sione, pea mo e tamai mo e faʻē ʻae taʻahine.
And having come into the house, He permitted no one to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father of the child, and the mother;
52 Pea naʻa nau tangi mo tangilāulau kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko ia: ka naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOua ʻe tangi; he ʻoku ʻikai mate ia, ka ʻoku mohe [pe].”
and they were all weeping, and beating themselves for her, and He said, “Do not weep, she did not die, but sleeps”;
53 Ka naʻa nau kakata manuki kiate ia, ko ʻenau ʻilo kuo mate ia.
and they were deriding Him, knowing that she died;
54 Pea ne tuku ʻakinautolu kotoa pē kituʻa, pea puke hono nima, ʻo ne ui, ʻo pehē, “Taʻahine, tuʻu hake.”
and He having put all forth outside, and having taken hold of her hand, called, saying, “Child, arise”;
55 Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻa hono laumālie, pea tuʻu hake leva ia: pea ne fekau ke ʻatu haʻane meʻakai.
and her spirit came back, and she arose immediately, and He directed that there be given to her to eat;
56 Pea ofo ai ʻa ʻene mātuʻa: ka naʻe fekau ʻe ia kiate kinaua ke ʻoua naʻa na fakahā ki ha taha ʻaia kuo fai.
and her parents were amazed, but He charged them to say to no one what had come to pass.
