Maʻake 6
1 Pea naʻe ʻalu ia mei ai, ʻo haʻu ki hono fonua; pea muimui ʻa ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia.
He went out from there. He came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.
2 Pea hokosia ʻae ʻaho Sāpate, pea kamata ako ia ʻi he falelotu; pea ofo ʻae tokolahi ʻi he fanongo [kiate ia], ʻonau pehē, “Kuo maʻu mei fē ʻe he tangata ni ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni? Pea ko e hā ʻae poto [ko eni ]kuo tuku kiate ia, ʻaia kuo fai ai ʻe hono nima ʻae ngaahi ngāue lahi pehē?
When the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things?” and, “What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?
3 ʻIkai ko e tufunga eni, ko e tama ʻa Mele, pea ko e tokoua ʻo Semisi, mo Sose, mo Siute, mo Saimone? Pea ʻikai ʻoku ʻi heni mo kitautolu ʻa hono ngaahi tuofefine?” Pea naʻa nau tūkia ʻiate ia.
Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James, Joses, Judah, and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” So they were offended at him.
4 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ʻikai ke masiva fakaʻapaʻapa ha palōfita, ka ʻi hono fonua, mo hono kāinga, mo hono fale.”
Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honour, except in his own country, and amongst his own relatives, and in his own house.”
5 Pea naʻe ʻikai te ne mafai ʻi ai ha ngāue lahi, ka naʻa ne hilifaki hono nima ki he tokosiʻi pe naʻe mahaki, ʻo ne fakamoʻui.
He could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them.
6 Pea naʻe ofo ia ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau taʻetui. Pea ʻalu fakatakamilo ia ʻi he ngaahi potu kakai, ʻo akonaki.
He marvelled because of their unbelief. He went around the villages teaching.
7 Pea ne ui ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻo ne fua fekau ke nau ō, ʻo tautau toko ua, pea ne foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae mālohi ki he kau laumālie ʻuli;
He called to himself the twelve, and began to send them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits.
8 Mo fekau ʻe ia kiate kinautolu ke ʻoua te nau ʻave he meʻa [ʻi honau ]fononga, ka ko e tokotoko pe; ʻoua naʻa ʻai ha kato, pe ha mā, pe ha paʻanga ʻi he noʻo:
He commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a staff only: no bread, no wallet, no money in their purse,
9 Kae topuvaʻe ʻai ʻae teka; pea ʻoua naʻa ʻaki ʻae kofutuʻa ʻe ua.
but to wear sandals, and not put on two tunics.
10 Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko e potu ko ia te mou hū ai ki ha fale, mou nofo ai pe kaeʻoua ke mou toki ō ʻi he potu ko ia.
He said to them, “Wherever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there.
11 Pea ko kinautolu ʻe ʻikai maʻu ʻakimoutolu, pe fanongo kiate kimoutolu, ʻoka mou ka ʻalu ai, mou tūtuuʻi ʻae efu ʻi homou vaʻe, ko e fakamoʻoni kiate kinautolu. Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻE kātakingofua ʻa Sotoma mo Komola ʻi he ʻaho fakamaau, ʻi he kolo ko ia.”
Whoever will not receive you nor hear you, as you depart from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony against them. Assuredly, I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgement than for that city!”
12 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu, ʻo malanga ke fakatomala ʻae kakai.
They went out and preached that people should repent.
13 Pea nau kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo tokolahi, pea tākai ʻaki ʻae lolo, mo fakamoʻui ʻae tokolahi naʻe mahaki.
They cast out many demons, and anointed many with oil who were sick and healed them.
14 Pea fanongo ki ai ʻae tuʻi ko Helota; (he kuo mafola atu hono hingoa; ) pea pehē ʻe ia, Kuo toe tuʻu mei he mate ʻa Sione ko e Papitaiso, pea ko ia ʻoku hā ai ʻae ngaahi ngāue lahi meiate ia.
King Herod heard this, for his name had become known, and he said, “John the Baptiser has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.”
15 Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Ko ʻIlaisiā ia.” Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Ko e palōfita ia, pe ʻoku hangē ko ha taha ʻi he kau palōfita.”
But others said, “He is Elijah.” Others said, “He is a prophet, or like one of the prophets.”
16 Ka ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻa Helota, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko Sione ia, ʻaia ne u tutuʻu hono ʻulu: kuo toe tuʻu ia mei he mate.”
But Herod, when he heard this, said, “This is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen from the dead.”
17 He naʻe fekau atu ʻe Helota, ke puke ʻa Sione, ʻo haʻi ia ʻi he fale fakapōpula, ko e meʻa ia Helotiasi, ko e uaifi ʻo hono tokoua ko Filipe: he kuo na fakamaʻu mo ia.
For Herod himself had sent out and arrested John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, for he had married her.
18 He naʻe pehē ʻe Sione kia Helota, “ʻOku ʻikai ngofua haʻo maʻu ʻae uaifi ʻo ho tokoua.”
For John had said to Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”
19 Ko ia naʻe ʻita ʻa Helotiasi kiate ia, ʻo ne loto ke tāmateʻi ia; ka naʻe ʻikai ke ne mafai [ia]:
Herodias set herself against him and desired to kill him, but she couldn’t,
20 He naʻe manavahē ʻa Helota kia Sione, ko ʻene ʻilo ko e tangata angatonu ia, mo māʻoniʻoni, pea naʻa ne maluʻi ia; pea ʻi heʻene fanongo kiate ia, naʻa ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi, mo ne fanongo ʻi he fiefia.
for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. When he heard him, he did many things, and he heard him gladly.
21 Pea naʻe hokosia ʻae ʻaho lelei, ko e ʻaho fakamanatu ki he fanauʻi ʻo Helota, pea ne fai ai ʻae kātoanga mā ʻa hono ngaahi houʻeiki, mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau, mo e ngaahi ʻeiki ʻo Kāleli;
Then a convenient day came when Herod on his birthday made a supper for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee.
22 Pea kuo haʻu [ki ai ]ʻae taʻahine ʻae Helotiasi ko ia, ʻo meʻe, pea mālieʻia ai ʻa Helota mo kinautolu naʻa nau nonofo, pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi ki he taʻahine, “Kole mai kiate au ʻaia ʻoku ke loto ki ai, pea te u foaki [ia ]kiate koe.”
When the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young lady, “Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you.”
23 Pea ne fuakava kiate ia, “Ka ʻilonga ha meʻa te ke kole kiate au, te u foaki ia kiate koe, ʻo aʻu ki hono vaeua mālie ʻo hoku puleʻanga.”
He swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”
24 Pea ʻalu atu ia, ʻo ne pehē ki heʻene faʻē, “Ko e hā te u kole?” Pea pehēange ʻe ia, “Ko e ʻulu ʻo Sione ko e Papitaiso.”
She went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask?” She said, “The head of John the Baptiser.”
25 Pea [toe ]haʻu leva ia ki he tuʻi, pea ne kole, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoku loto ke ke foaki mai kiate au ʻanaiange, ʻae ʻulu ʻo Sione ko e Papitaiso, ʻi ha ipu.”
She came in immediately with haste to the king and requested, “I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptiser on a platter.”
26 Pea mamahi lahi ʻae tuʻi; ka ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fuakava, pea koeʻuhi ko kinautolu naʻa nau nonofo mo ia, naʻe ʻikai te ne faʻa fakafisi kiate ia.
The king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths and of his dinner guests, he didn’t wish to refuse her.
27 Pea kouna leva ʻe he tuʻi ʻae tangata tāmate, ʻo fekau ke ʻomi hono ʻulu: pea ʻalu ia, ʻo tutuʻu hono ʻulu ʻi he fale fakapōpula,
Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard and commanded to bring John’s head; and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28 ʻo ne ʻomi hono ʻulu ʻi ha ipu, mo ʻatu ki he taʻahine: pea ʻange ia ʻe he taʻahine ki heʻene faʻē.
and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young lady; and the young lady gave it to her mother.
29 Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻa ʻene kau ākonga, naʻa nau omi, ʻo ʻave hono sino ʻo fakatokoto ia ʻi he fonualoto.
When his disciples heard this, they came and took up his corpse and laid it in a tomb.
30 Pea fakataha ʻae kau ʻaposetolo kia Sisu, ʻonau fakamatala kiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo nau fai, mo ia kuo nau ako ʻaki.
The apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and they told him all things, whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.
31 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Mou omi ʻakimoutolu pe ki ha potu lala, ʻo mālōlō siʻi:” he naʻe tokolahi naʻe faʻa feʻaluʻaki, pea naʻe ʻikai ke nau ʻataʻatā ke fai ʻenau kai.
He said to them, “Come away into a deserted place, and rest awhile.” For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
32 Pea nau ō fakalilolilo ʻi he vaka ki he potu lala.
They went away in the boat to a deserted place by themselves.
33 Pea mamata ʻae kakai ki heʻenau ʻalu, pea ʻilo ia ʻe he tokolahi, pea nau feleleʻi ʻuta ki ai mei he kolo kotoa pē, ʻo muʻomuʻa kiate kinautolu, pea fakataha ai kiate ia.
They saw them going, and many recognised him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to him.
34 Pea kuo tuʻu ki ʻuta ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne vakai kuo tokolahi ʻae kakai, naʻe manavaʻofa ia kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi kuo nau tatau mo e fanga sipi taʻehatauhi: pea ne kamata ako kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi.
Jesus came out, saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
35 Pea kuo tei ʻosi ʻae ʻaho, pea haʻu ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e potu lala eni, pea kuo teitei ʻosi ʻae ʻaho:
When it was late in the day, his disciples came to him and said, “This place is deserted, and it is late in the day.
36 fekau ke nau ō, koeʻuhi ke nau ʻalu ki he tukuʻuta, mo e ngaahi potu kakai ʻoku tuʻu takatakai, ke nau fakatau maʻanautolu ʻae mā: he ʻoku ʻikai haʻanau meʻa ke kai.”
Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat.”
37 Pea lea ʻe ia, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou ʻatu ha meʻa ke nau kai.” Pea nau pehē kiate ia, Te mau ō, ʻo fakatau mā ʻaki ʻae tenali ʻe uangeau, mo ʻatu ke nau kai?”
But he answered them, “You give them something to eat.” They asked him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”
38 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e foʻi mā ʻe fiha ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu? ʻAlu ʻo vakai.” Pea kuo nau ʻilo, pea nau pehē, “ʻOku nima, mo e ika ʻe ua.”
He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go see.” When they knew, they said, “Five, and two fish.”
39 Pea ne fekau kiate kinautolu ke nau pule ke nofo kotoa pē ki lalo ki he mohuku maʻuiʻui, ʻo tautau tokolahi.
He commanded them that everyone should sit down in groups on the green grass.
40 Pea naʻa nau nofo ki lalo ʻo fakaʻotu, ʻo tautau toko teau, mo tautau toko nimangofulu.
They sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
41 Pea kuo toʻo ʻe ia ʻae foʻi mā ʻe nima mo e ika ʻe ua, pea hanga hake ia ki he langi, ʻo ne tāpuaki, mo ne tofitofi ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā, ʻo ʻange ki heʻene kau ākonga ke tufaki kiate kinautolu; pea ne tufaki mo e ika ʻe ua kiate kinautolu kātoa pe.
He took the five loaves and the two fish; and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke the loaves, and he gave to his disciples to set before them, and he divided the two fish amongst them all.
42 Pea naʻa nau kai kotoa pē, ʻo mākona.
They all ate and were filled.
43 Pea nau ʻave ʻae kato ʻe hongofulu ma ua kuo pito ʻi he toenga kai, mo e ika.
They took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and also of the fish.
44 Pea ko kinautolu naʻe kai ʻi he ngaahi foʻi mā, ko e tangata ʻe toko nima afe nai.
Those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.
45 Pea pule leva ʻe ia ke heka ki vaka ʻa ʻene kau ākonga, ʻo muʻomuʻa ki he potu ʻe taha ki Petesaita, kae fekau ʻe ia ke ʻalu ʻae kakai.
Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he himself sent the multitude away.
46 Pea kuo fekau atu ʻakinautolu, naʻe ʻalu ia ki he moʻunga ke lotu ai.
After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.
47 Pea kuo hoko ʻae efiafi, kuo ʻi he vaha ʻae vaka, kae ʻi ʻuta tokotaha pe ia.
When evening had come, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
48 Pea mamata ia ʻoku nau ongosia ʻi he tau ʻaʻalo; he naʻe tokai ʻae matangi kiate kinautolu: pea kuo ofi hono fā ʻoe leʻo ʻoe pō, pea ʻalu ange ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne hāʻele ia ʻi he [fukahi tahi], pea hangē ka mole pe ia ʻiate kinautolu.
Seeing them distressed in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have passed by them,
49 Ka ʻi heʻenau mamata ʻoku hāʻele ia ʻi he fukahi vai, naʻa nau mahalo ko e laumālie ia, ʻonau kalanga ai:
but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;
50 He naʻa nau mamata kotoa pē kiate ia, pea nau ilifia. Pea leaange leva ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne pehē, “Mou fiemālie: he ko au; pea ʻoua ʻe manavahē.”
for they all saw him and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them and said to them, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”
51 Pea ʻalu hake ia kiate kinautolu ki vaka; pea malu [leva ]ʻae matangi: pea fakatumutumu lahi fakamanavahē ʻakinautolu ʻo taʻefaʻalaua ʻi honau loto, mo ofo ai.
He got into the boat with them; and the wind ceased, and they were very amazed amongst themselves, and marvelled;
52 He naʻe ʻikai te nau manatu ki he ngaahi foʻi mā: he kuo fefeka honau loto.
for they hadn’t understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.
53 Pea kuo nau hoko atu, ʻonau aʻu ki he fonua ko Kenesaleti, pea tau ki ʻuta.
When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored to the shore.
54 Pea kuo nau haʻu mei he vaka, pea ʻilo leva ia ʻekinautolu.
When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognised him,
55 Pea nau feleleʻi ʻi he potu fonua kotoa ko ia mo nau fata fano pe ʻi he ngaahi mohenga ʻakinautolu naʻe mahaki, ki he potu naʻa nau fanongo ʻoku ʻi ai ia.
and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick on their mats to where they heard he was.
56 Pea naʻe ʻilonga haʻa ne ʻalu ki he ngaahi potu kakai, pe ki he ngaahi kolo, pe ki he tukuʻuta, naʻa nau fakatokoto ʻae mahaki ʻi he ngaahi hala, pea nau kole kiate ia ke nau ala ki he kapa pe ʻo hono kofu: pea ʻilonga ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ala ki ai, naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
Wherever he entered—into villages, or into cities, or into the country—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.
