Luke 9
1 Pea naʻe toki ui ia ke fakataha ʻene kau ākonga ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, pea ne tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae mālohi mo e pule ki he kau tēvolo kotoa pē, pea ke fakamoʻui ʻae ngaahi mahaki.
And he called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
2 Pea ne fekau atu ʻakinautolu ke malangaʻaki ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, mo fakamoʻui ʻae mahaki.
And he sent them forth to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
3 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa ʻave ha meʻa ʻi hoʻomou fononga, ʻae ngaahi tokotoko, pea ha kato, pe ha mā, pe ha paʻanga; pe te mou taki ua ʻae kofutuʻa.
And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staff, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats.
4 Pea ko e fale ko ia te mou hū ki ai, mou nofo ai, pea toki ʻalu ai.
And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide, and thence depart.
5 Pea ko e potu ko ia ʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ʻakimoutolu ʻi ai, ʻoka mou ka ʻalu ʻi he kolo ko ia, mou tūtuuʻi ʻae efu ʻi homou vaʻe ko e fakamoʻoni kiate kinautolu.”
And as many as receive you not, when ye depart from that city, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu, ʻo fononga ʻi he ngaahi potu kakai, pea malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei, mo nau fakamoʻui ʻi he potu kotoa pē.
And they departed, and went throughout the villages, preaching the gospel, and healing everywhere.
7 Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa Helota ko e tuʻi ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe ia: pea naʻa ne puputuʻu ai, koeʻuhi naʻe pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Kuo toetuʻu ʻa Sione mei he mate.”
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done: and he was much perplexed, because that it was said by some, that John was risen from the dead;
8 Pea [pehē ]ʻe he niʻihi, “Kuo hā mai ʻa ʻIlaisiā; mo e niʻihi, Kuo toetuʻu ha taha ʻi he kau palōfita motuʻa.”
and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.
9 Pea pehē ʻe Helota, “Kuo u tutuʻu ʻae ʻulu ʻo Sione; ka ko hai eni, ʻoku ou fanongo ki ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni?” Pea ne ne holi ke mamata kiate ia.
And Herod said, John I beheaded: but who is this, about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
10 Pea kuo liu mai ʻae kau ʻaposetolo, pea nau fakahā kotoa pē kiate ia ʻaia kuo nau fai. Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻakinautolu, ʻo afe fakafufū ki he potu lala ʻoe kolo ʻoku ui ko Petesaita.
And the apostles, when they were returned, declared unto him what things they had done. And he took them, and withdrew apart to a city called Bethsaida.
11 Pea kuo ʻilo [ia ]ʻe he kakai, naʻa nau muimui kiate ia: pea ne maʻu ʻakinautolu, ʻo ne lea kiate kinautolu, ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, pea naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻaia naʻe ʻaonga ke fakamoʻui.
But the multitudes perceiving it followed him: and he welcomed them, and spake to them of the kingdom of God, and them that had need of healing he healed.
12 Pea kuo tei ʻosi ʻae ʻaho, pea haʻu ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Fekau ke ʻalu ʻae kakai, koeʻuhi ke nau ō ki he ngaahi potu kakai mo e ngaahi nofoʻanga kakai ofi mai, ʻo mohe ai, pea maʻu ai ʻae meʻa kai; he ʻoku tau ʻi heni ko e potu lala.”
And the day began to wear away; and the twelve came, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place.
13 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Mou ʻatu ha meʻakai kiate kinautolu.” Pea naʻa nau pehēange, “ʻOku ʻikai haʻatau meʻa ka ko e foʻi mā ʻe nima mo e ika ʻe ua, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te mau ō, ʻo fakatau meʻakai mā ʻae kakai ni kotoa pē.”
But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy food for all this people.
14 He naʻe toko nima afe nai ʻae tangata. Pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Pule ke nau nofo hifo ʻo tautau toko nimangofulu.”
For they were about five thousand men. And he said unto his disciples, Make them sit down in companies, about fifty each.
15 Pea naʻa nau fai ia, mo pule ke nau nofo hifo kotoa pē.
And they did so, and made them all sit down.
16 Pea toʻo ʻe ia ʻae foʻi mā ʻe nima mo e ika ʻe ua, pea hanga hake ia ki he langi, ʻo ne tāpuaki ia, mo tofitofi, ʻo ʻatu ki he kau ākonga ke tufaki ki he kakai.
And he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake; and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.
17 Pea naʻa nau kai ʻo mākona ai kotoa pē: pea naʻe tānaki ʻae toenga kai naʻe toe kiate kinautolu, pea pito ai ʻae kato ʻe hongofulu ma ua.
And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up that which remained over to them of broken pieces, twelve baskets.
18 Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene lotu tokotaha pe, kuo ʻalu ange ʻene kau ākonga: pea fehuʻi ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe he kakai, ko hai au?”
And it came to pass, as he was praying alone, the disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Who do the multitudes say that I am?
19 Pea naʻa nau lea, ʻo pehēange, “Ko Sione ko e Papitaiso;” kae [pehē ]ʻe he niʻihi, “Ko ʻIlaisiā;” pea [pehē ]ʻe he niʻihi, “Kuo toetuʻu ha taha ʻi he kau palōfita motuʻa.”
And they answering said, John the Baptist; but others [say], Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets is risen again.
20 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu. “Ka ʻoku pehē ʻekimoutolu ko hai au?” Pea lea ʻa Pita, ʻo pehēange, “Koe Kalaisi koe ʻoe ʻOtua.”
And he said unto them, But who say ye that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
21 Pea ne naʻinaʻi mālohi mo fekau ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa fakahā ʻae meʻa ko ia ki ha taha;
But he charged them, and commanded [them] to tell this to no man;
22 ʻO ne pehē, “ʻE kātaki ʻe he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi, pea ʻe siʻaki ia ʻe he kau mātuʻa pea mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau tangata tohi, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ia, pea toe fokotuʻu ʻi hono ʻaho tolu.”
saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
23 Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu kotoa pē, “Kapau ʻe muimui ha taha kiate au, tuku ke siʻaki ia ʻe ia, pea toʻo hake ʻene ʻakau māfasia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea muimui ʻiate au.
And he said unto all, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
24 He ko ia ʻe kalofaki ʻene moʻui, ʻe mole ia; ka ko ia ʻe mole ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko au, ko ia [pe ]ʻe maʻu ia.
For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25 He ko e hā hono ʻaonga ki he tangata, ʻo kapau ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ʻa māmani kotoa pē, kae mole ia, pe liaki ia?
For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, and lose or forfeit his own self?
26 He ko ia ʻe mā ʻiate au mo ʻeku ngaahi lea, ʻe mā ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoka haʻu ia ʻi hono nāunau ʻoʻona, mo ʻene Tamai, pea mo e kau ʻāngelo māʻoniʻoni.
For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in his own glory, and [the glory] of the Father, and of the holy angels.
27 Ka ʻoku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku tutuʻu ʻae niʻihi ʻi heni, ʻe ʻikai te nau kamata ʻae mate, kaeʻoua ke nau mamata ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
But I tell you of a truth, There be some of them that stand here, which shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
28 Hili ʻae ngaahi lea ni, ko e ʻaho nai ʻe valu, naʻe ʻave ʻe ia ʻa Pita mo Sione mo Semisi, pea nau ō hake ki he moʻunga ke lotu.
And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up into the mountain to pray.
29 Pea ʻi heʻene lotu, naʻe fakafoʻou ʻae anga ʻo hono fofonga, pea naʻe hinehina ʻo ngingila hono ngaahi kofu.
And as he was praying, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment [became] white [and] dazzling.
30 Pea vakai, naʻe alea mo ia ʻae tangata ʻe toko ua, ʻaia ko Mōsese mo ʻIlaisiā:
And behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elijah;
31 ʻO na hā mai ʻi he nāunau, ʻonau alea ki heʻene pekia, ʻaia te ne fai ʻi Selūsalema.
who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.
32 Ka ko Pita mo kinaua naʻe ʻiate ia naʻa nau māfasia ʻi he [fie ]mohe: pea ʻi heʻenau ʻā, naʻa nau mamata ki hono nāunau, pea mo e ongo tangata naʻa nau tutuʻu mo ia.
Now Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.
33 Pea pehē, ʻi he ʻena ʻalu ʻiate ia, naʻe pehē ʻe Pita kia Sisu, “ʻEiki, ʻoku lelei ʻetau ʻi heni: pea tuku ke mau ngaohi ha fale ʻe tolu; ke ʻoʻou ʻae taha, pea taha ʻo Mōsese, pea taha ʻo ʻIlaisiā:” ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe ia ʻene lea.
And it came to pass, as they were parting from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: not knowing what he said.
34 Pea lolotonga ʻene lea pehē, naʻe fakamalū ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae ʻao: pea naʻa nau manavahē ʻi heʻenau hū ki he ʻao.
And while he said these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.
35 Pea naʻe ongo mai ʻae leʻo mei he ʻao, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoku ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga eni: fanongo kiate ia.”
And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my Son, my chosen: hear ye him.
36 Pea hili ʻae lea, naʻe ʻilo ʻa Sisu ʻoku tokotaha pe. Pea naʻa nau fufū eni, ʻo ʻikai fakahā ki ha tokotaha, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, ha meʻa ʻe taha kuo nau mamata ki ai.
And when the voice came, Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days any of the things which they had seen.
37 Pea pehē, ʻi he pongipongi hake, naʻa nau ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, pea fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻae fuʻu kakai,
And it came to pass, on the next day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.
38 Pea vakai, naʻe kalanga mai ʻae tangata ʻi he kakai, ʻo pehē, “ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke vakai ki hoku foha: he ko ʻeku tamasiʻi tokotaha pe ia.
And behold, a man from the multitude cried, saying, Master, I beseech thee to look upon my son; for he is mine only child:
39 Pea vakai, ʻoku puke ia ʻe he laumālie, pea fokifā ʻoku tangi kalanga ia; pea ʻoku ne haeʻi ke koā ai ia, pea ʻoku ne haʻaki ia, pea ʻalu ai ʻi he taʻefieʻalu.”
and behold, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth, and it hardly departeth from him, bruising him sorely.
40 Pea ne u kole ki hoʻo kau ākonga ke kapusi ia; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai.
And I besought thy disciples to cast it out; and they could not.
41 Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange, “ʻAe toʻutangata taʻetui mo angakovi, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo ʻetau nonofo, mo ʻeku kātaki ʻakimoutolu? ʻOmi ho foha ki heni.”
And Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? bring hither thy son.
42 Pea ʻi heʻene haʻu, naʻe haʻaki ia ʻe he tēvolo, mo haeʻi. Pea naʻe tautea ʻe Sisu ʻae laumālie ʻuli, mo fakamoʻui ʻae tamasiʻi, ʻo toe ʻatu ia ki heʻene tamai.
And as he was yet a coming, the devil dashed him down, and tare [him] grievously. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 Pea naʻa nau ofo kotoa pē ʻi he māfimafi lahi ʻoe ʻOtua. Ka ʻi heʻenau ofo kotoa pē ʻi he meʻa fulipē naʻe fai ʻe Sisu, pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga,
And they were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marveling at all the things which he did, he said unto his disciples,
44 “Tuku ke ongo ki ho ʻoʻou telinga ʻae ngaahi lea ko eni: ʻe tukuange ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he nima ʻoe kakai.”
Let these words sink into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered up into the hands of men.
45 Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae lea ni, pea naʻe fufū ia meiate kinautolu, pea ʻikai ai te nau ʻilo ia: pea naʻa nau manavahē ke fehuʻi kiate ia ʻi he lea ko ia.
But they understood not this saying, and it was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it: and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
46 Pea naʻe tupu ʻiate kinautolu ʻae fakakikihi, pe ko hai ʻe lahi ʻiate kinautolu.
And there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.
47 Pea ʻiloʻi ʻe Sisu ʻae mahalo ʻa honau loto, pea toʻo mai ʻe ia ʻae tamasiʻi, ʻo tuku ia ke ofi kiate ia,
But when Jesus saw the reasoning of their heart, he took a little child, and set him by his side,
48 ʻO ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko ia ia ʻe maʻu ʻae tamasiʻi ni ʻi hoku huafa, ʻoku ne maʻu au; pea ko ia ia ʻoku ne maʻu au, ʻoku ne maʻu ʻaia naʻa ne fekau au: he ko ia ʻoku siʻi ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē, ko ia ia ʻe lahi.”
and said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same is great.
49 Pea lea ʻa Sione, ʻo pehēange, “ʻEiki, naʻa mau mamata ki ha taha ʻoku kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo ʻi ho huafa; pea naʻa mau taʻofi ia, he ʻoku ʻikai ke muimui ia mo kimautolu.”
And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.
50 Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa taʻofi: he ko ia ʻoku ʻikai angatuʻu kiate kitautolu ʻoku kau ia mo kitautolu.”
But Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him] not: for he that is not against you is for you.
51 Pea pehē, ʻi he ofi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ke maʻu hake ai ia ki ʻolunga, naʻa ne fakahangatonu hono fofonga ke ʻalu ki Selūsalema,
And it came to pass, when the days were well-nigh come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,
52 ʻO ne fekau ʻe ia ʻae kau fakamelomelo ke muʻomuʻa ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻa nau ō, ʻo hū ki he potu kakai ʻo Samēlia, ke teuteu [ai ]kiate ia.
and sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.
53 Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ia, koeʻuhi naʻe hanga hono mata ʻo hangē ka ʻalu ia ki Selūsalema.
And they did not receive him, because his face was [as though he were] going to Jerusalem.
54 Pea kuo mamata ki ai ʻene ākonga ko Semisi mo Sione, pea na pehē, “ʻEiki, ʻe lelei kiate koe ke ma fekau hifo ʻae afi mei he langi, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻe ʻIlaisiā?”
And when his disciples James and John saw [this], they said, Lord, wilt thou that we bid fire to come down from heaven, and consume them?
55 Ka naʻe tangaki ia ki mui, ʻo valoki ʻakinaua, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai siʻi te mo ʻilo ʻae anga ʻo homo loto.
But he turned, and rebuked them.
56 He naʻe ʻikai haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ke fakaʻauha ʻae moʻui ʻae kakai, ka ke fakamoʻui.” Pea naʻa nau ō ki he potu kakai ʻe taha.
And they went to another village.
57 Pea ʻi heʻenau ō ʻi he hala, naʻe pehē ʻe he tokotaha kiate ia, “ʻEiki, te u muimui kiate koe ʻi he potu kotoa pē te ke ʻalu ki ai.”
And as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
58 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOku maʻu ʻe he fanga fokisi ʻae tafu, pea ʻoku ʻi he fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā ʻae moheʻanga; ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he Foha ʻoe tangata ha potu ke tokoto ai hono ʻulu.”
And Jesus said unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven [have] nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
59 Pea pehē ʻe ia ki ha taha kehe, “Muimui mai kiate au.” Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻEiki, tuku au ke u tomuʻa ʻalu ʻo tanu ʻeku tamai.”
And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
60 Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Tuku ke tanu ʻe he mate honau mate; ka ke ʻalu koe ʻo malangaʻaki ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
But he said unto him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead; but go thou and publish abroad the kingdom of God.
61 Pea naʻe pehē foki ʻe he tokotaha, “ʻEiki, te u muimui kiate koe; kae tuku au ke u tomuʻa ʻalu ʻo feʻiloaki mo kinautolu ʻi hoku fale.”
And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord; but first suffer me to bid farewell to them that are at my house.
62 Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOku ʻikai ha taha kuo ʻai hono nima ki he huo toho, kae sio ki mui, ʻe ʻaonga ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
But Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
