< Maʻake 7 >

1 Pea toki fakataha kiate ia ʻae kau Fālesi mo e niʻihi ʻi he kau tangata tohi, naʻe haʻu mei Selūsalema.
Then gathered vnto him the Pharises, and certaine of the Scribes which came from Hierusalem.
2 Pea ʻi heʻenau mamata ki he niʻihi ʻi heʻene kau ākonga ʻoku nau kai mā ʻi he nima ʻuli, ko e pehē, ko e [nima ]taʻefanofano, naʻa nau hanu ai.
And when they sawe some of his disciples eate meate with common hands, (that is to say, vnwashen) they complained.
3 He ko e kau Fālesi, mo e kakai Siu fulipē, ʻoku ʻikai te nau kai, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau fuofua fanofano nima, ko e tokanga ki he talatupuʻa ʻae mātuʻa.
(For the Pharises, and all the Iewes, except they wash their hands oft, eate not, holding the tradition of the Elders.
4 Pea ʻi [heʻenau haʻu ]mei he faianga fakatau, ʻoku ʻikai te nau kai, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau kaukau. Pea ʻoku ai mo e ngaahi meʻa kehekehe, kuo nau maʻu ke fai, ko e fufulu ʻoe ngaahi ipu inu, mo e ngaahi ipu fua, mo e ngaahi ipu kapa, mo e ngaahi tokotoʻanga.
And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eate not: and many other things there be, which they haue taken vpon them to obserue, as the washing of cups, and pots, and of brasen vessels, and of beds.)
5 Pea fehuʻi kiate ia ʻe he kau Fālesi mo e kau tangata tohi, “Ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai ai ke fai ʻe hoʻo kau ākonga ʻo hangē ko e talatupuʻa ʻae mātuʻa, ka ʻoku nau kai mā mo e nima taʻefanofano?”
Then asked him the Pharises and Scribes, Why walke not thy disciples according to the tradition of the Elders, but eate meate with vnwashen hands?
6 Pea leaange ʻe ia, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Neʻineʻi fakahā ʻe ʻIsaia kiate kimoutolu, ko e kau mālualoi, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi, ‘ʻOku fakaʻapaʻapa ʻae kakai ni kiate au ʻaki honau loungutu, ka ʻoku mamaʻo honau loto ʻiate au.
Then hee answered and sayd vnto them, Surely Esay hath prophecied well of you, hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth mee with lippes, but their heart is farre away from me.
7 Ka ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻenau hū kiate au, he ko e ngaahi akonaki ʻoku nau ako ʻaki, ko e ngaahi fekau ʻae tangata.’
But they worship me in vaine, teaching for doctrines the commandements of men.
8 “He kuo mou siʻaki ʻae fekau ʻae ʻOtua, kae maʻu ʻae talatupuʻa ʻae tangata, ko e fufulu ʻoe ngaahi ipu fua mo e ngaahi ipu inu: pea ʻoku lahi mo e ngaahi meʻa pehē ʻoku mou fai.
For ye lay the commandement of God apart, and obserue the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and of cups, and many other such like things ye doe.
9 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ha meʻa ʻe lelei ko hoʻomou liʻaki ʻae fekau ʻae ʻOtua, ka mou fai ʻae talatupuʻa ʻamoutolu.
And he sayd vnto them, Well, ye reiect the commandement of God, that ye may obserue your owne tradition.
10 He naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, ‘Fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoʻo tamai mo hoʻo faʻē;’ pea, ‘Ko ia ʻoku kape ki [heʻene ]tamai pe ko [ʻene ]faʻē, tuku ke mate tāmateʻi ia.’
For Moses sayd, Honour thy father and thy mother: and Whosoeuer shall speake euill of father or mother, let him die the death.
11 Ka ʻoku mou pehē, ‘Kapau ʻe lea ha tangata ki heʻene tamai pe ko ʻene faʻē, [ʻo pehē], “Ko ʻeku meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻaonga kiate koe, ko e Kopano ia,”’ ʻaia ko e foaki tapu; [ʻe ʻataʻatā ia].
But yee say, If a man say to father or mother, Corban, that is, By the gift that is offered by mee, thou mayest haue profite, hee shall be free.
12 Pea ʻoku mou taʻofi haʻane toe fai ha meʻa maʻa ʻene tamai pe ko ʻene faʻē;
So ye suffer him no more to doe any thing for his father, or his mother,
13 ‌ʻO fakataʻeʻaonga ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua ʻaki hoʻomou talatupuʻa, ʻaia ʻoku mou enginakiʻaki: pea ʻoku lahi ʻae meʻa pehē ʻoku mou fai.”
Making the worde of God of none authoritie, by your tradition which ye haue ordeined: and ye doe many such like things.
14 Pea ʻi heʻene ui mai ʻae kakai kotoa pē, naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Fanongo kotoa pē kiate au, pea ʻilo.
Then he called the whole multitude vnto him, and sayd vnto them, Hearken you all vnto me, and vnderstand.
15 ‌ʻOku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻituʻa ʻi he tangata, pea hū ki ai, te ne faʻa fakaʻuliʻi ia: ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku haʻu meiate ia, ko ia ia ʻoku fakaʻuliʻi ʻae tangata.
There is nothing without a man, that can defile him, when it entreth into him: but the things which proceede out of him, are they which defile the man.
16 Ko e tangata ʻoku telinga ke ongo, ke ongoʻi ia.”
If any haue eares to heare, let him heare.
17 Pea kuo hū ia ki he fale mei he kakai, naʻe fehuʻi ʻe heʻene kau ākonga kiate ia ki he fakatātā.
And when hee came into an house, away from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
18 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “He ʻoku pehē hoʻomou taʻeʻilo foki? ʻOku ʻikai te mou ʻilo, ko e meʻa kotoa pē mei tuʻa, ʻoku ʻalu ki he tangata, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakaʻuli ia ʻe ia;
And he sayde vnto them, What? are ye without vnderstanding also? Doe ye not knowe that whatsoeuer thing from without entreth into a man, cannot defile him,
19 Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ke ʻalu ia ki hono loto, ka ki he kete, ʻoku fakamaʻa ai ʻae meʻakai kotoa pē, kae [toki ]ʻalu kituʻa ʻae meʻa taʻeʻaonga?”
Because it entreth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught which is the purging of all meates?
20 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko ia ʻoku haʻu mei he tangata, ko ia ia ʻoku fakaʻuliʻi ʻae tangata.
Then he sayd, That which commeth out of man, that defileth man.
21 He ʻoku mei loto, mei he loto ʻoe tangata, ʻae mahalo kovi, mo e tonoʻi fefine mo e feʻauaki, mo e fakapō,
For from within, euen out of the heart of men, proceede euill thoughtes, adulteries, fornications, murthers,
22 Mo e kaihaʻa, mo e manumanu, mo e angahala, mo e kākā, mo e anga fakalielia, mo e mata kovi, mo e lea kovi, mo e laukau, mo e vale:
Theftes, couetousnes, wickednes, deceite, vncleannes, a wicked eye, backbiting, pride, foolishnesse.
23 Ko e ngaahi meʻa kovi ni kotoa pē ʻoku haʻu mei he loto, ʻoku fakaʻuliʻi ʻae tangata.”
All these euill things come from within, and defile a man.
24 Pea tuʻu hake ia ʻi ai, ʻo ʻalu ki he potu ʻo Taia mo Saitoni, pea ne hū ki he fale, ʻo ne loto ke ʻoua naʻa ʻilo [ia ]ʻe ha taha: ka naʻe ʻikai faʻa fakapuli ia.
And from thence he rose, and went into the borders of Tyrus and Sidon, and entred into an house, and woulde that no man should haue knowen: but he could not be hid.
25 He naʻe ongoa atu ia ki ha fefine naʻe ai ʻene taʻahine siʻi naʻe ʻi ai ʻae laumālie ʻuli, pea haʻu ia, ʻo tōmapeʻe ʻi hono vaʻe:
For a certaine woman, whose litle daughter had an vncleane spirit, heard of him, and came, and fell at his feete,
26 Ko e Kiliki ʻae fefine ni, mei he puleʻanga ko Sailofinisia: pea naʻa ne kole kiate ia, ke ne kapusi kituʻa ʻae tēvolo ʻi heʻene taʻahine.
(And the woman was a Greeke, a Syrophenissian by nation) and she besought him that he would cast out the deuill out of her daughter.
27 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOua ke tomuʻa mākona ʻae fānau: he ʻoku ʻikai ngali ke toʻo ʻae mā ʻae fānau, mo lī ki he fanga kulī.”
But Iesus saide vnto her, Let the children first be fedde: for it is not good to take the childrens bread, and to cast it vnto whelpes.
28 Pea leaange ʻe ia, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Ko e moʻoni, ʻEiki: ka ʻoku kai ʻe he fanga kulī, ʻi he lalo keinangaʻanga, ʻae momo ʻoe meʻakai ʻae fānau.”
Then shee answered, and saide vnto him, Trueth, Lord: yet in deede the whelpes eate vnder the table of the childrens crommes.
29 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Koeʻuhi ko e lea ni ke ke ʻalu; kuo ʻalu kituʻa ʻae tēvolo ʻi hoʻo taʻahine.”
Then he said vnto her, For this saying goe thy way: the deuil is gone out of thy daughter.
30 Pea kuo hoko ia ki hono fale, pea ne ʻilo kuo ʻalu kituʻa ʻa e tēvolo, kae tokoto ʻene taʻahine ʻi he mohenga.
And when shee was come home to her house, shee founde the deuill departed, and her daughter lying on the bed.
31 Pea naʻe toe ʻalu ia mei he potu ʻo Taia mo Saitoni, ʻo haʻu ʻi he potu fonua ʻo Tikapolisi, ki he tahi ʻo Kāleli.
And hee departed againe from the coastes of Tyrus and Sidon, and came vnto the sea of Galile, through the middes of the coastes of Decapolis.
32 Pea nau ʻomi kiate ia ha tokotaha naʻe tuli, pea ʻikai ke faʻa lea; pea naʻa nau kole kiate ia ke ne hilifaki hono nima ki ai.
And they brought vnto him one that was deafe and stambered in his speache, and prayed him to put his hand vpon him.
33 Pea naʻa ne fakaafe ia mei he kakai, ʻo ne ʻai hono tuhu ki hono telinga, pea ʻaʻanu, mo ne ala ki hono ʻelelo;
Then hee tooke him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers in his eares, and did spit, and touched his tongue.
34 Pea hanga hake ia ki he langi, ʻo mafulu, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻEfata,” ko e pehē ia, “Ke ava.”
And looking vp to heauen, hee sighed, and said vnto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 Pea naʻe ava leva hono telinga, pea vete ʻae noʻo ʻo hono ʻelelo, pea ne lea totonu.
And straightway his eares were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and hee spake plaine.
36 Pea ne fekau kiate kinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa nau fakahā ki ha taha: ka ʻi heʻene fekau lahi kiate kinautolu, ne ʻāsili ai ʻo lahi ʻenau fanongonongo [ia];
And he commanded them, that they should tell no man: but howe much soeuer hee forbad them, the more a great deale they published it,
37 Pea naʻa nau ofo ʻo lahi ʻaupito, ʻo pehē, “Kuo ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻo lelei: ʻoku ne ngaohi ʻae tuli ke ongo, mo e noa ke lea.”
And were beyonde measure astonied, saying, Hee hath done all thinges well: he maketh both the deafe to heare, and the domme to speake.
