Luke 12:28-47

²⁸Ko ia kapau ʻe fakakofu pehē ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae mohuku, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ngoue he ʻaho ni, kae lī ki he ngotoʻumu ʻapongipongi; ʻikai ʻe lahi hake kiate kimoutolu, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku siʻi hoʻomou tui?

²⁹“Pea ʻoua naʻa mou kumi ki ha meʻa te mou kai, mo e meʻa te mou inu, pea ʻoua naʻa mou loto fakataʻetaʻetui.

³⁰He ko e meʻa kotoa pē eni ʻoku kumi ki ai ʻe he ngaahi kakai ʻo māmani: pea ʻoku ʻilo ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻoku mou masiva ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni.

³¹Kae kumi muʻa ʻakimoutolu ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua: pea ʻe fakalahi ʻaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.

³²“ʻAe fanga sipi siʻi, ʻOua ʻe manavahē he ko e finangalo lelei ʻo hoʻomou Tamai ke foaki ʻae puleʻanga kiate kimoutolu.

³³Fakatau atu ʻaia ʻoku mou maʻu, pea faʻa foaki; tokonaki maʻamoutolu ʻae ngaahi kato ʻe ʻikai fakaʻaʻau ke motuʻa, ko e koloa ʻi he langi ʻe ʻikai ʻosi, pea ʻe ʻikai ofi ki ai ha kaihaʻa, pe fakapopo ia ʻe he ane.

³⁴He ko e potu ʻoku ʻi ai hoʻomou koloa, ʻe ʻi ai foki mo homou loto.

³⁵“Tuku ke nonoʻo pe homou noʻotanga vala, pea ulo hoʻomou ngaahi maama.

³⁶Pea ke tatau ʻakimoutolu mo e kau tangata ʻoku tatali ki he liliu mai ʻa honau ʻeiki mei he taʻane; koeʻuhi ka haʻu ia ʻo tukituki, ke nau toʻo leva kiate ia.

³⁷‌ʻOku monūʻia ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻoka haʻu ʻae ʻeiki pea ne ʻilo ʻoku nau leʻo: ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, te ne nonoʻo ia, ʻo pule ke nau nofo hifo ki he kai, pea haʻu ia ʻo tauhi ʻakinautolu.

³⁸Pea kapau ʻe haʻu ia ʻi hono ua ʻoe leʻo, pe haʻu ʻi hono tolu ʻoe leʻo, pea ne ʻilo ʻoku pehē pe, ʻe monūʻia ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ko ia.

³⁹Pea ʻilo eni, ka ne ʻilo ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe fale ʻa e feituʻupō ko ia ʻe haʻu ai ʻae kaihaʻa, pehē, ne leʻo ia, ka ʻe ʻikai tuku ke hae hono fale.

⁴⁰Ko ia mou teuteu pe foki: he ko e feituʻulaʻā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻamanaki ki ai, ʻe haʻu ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.”

⁴¹Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ke lea ʻaki mai ʻae fakatātā ni kiate kimautolu, pe ki he kakai kotoa pē?”

⁴²Pea pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “He ko hai ʻae tauhi angatonu mo poto, ʻe fakanofo ʻe heʻene ʻeiki ke pule ki hono kau nofoʻanga, ke ʻatu ʻae tufakanga ʻi hono feituʻu totonu?

⁴³‌ʻE monūʻia ʻae tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻoka haʻu ʻene ʻeiki ʻo ne ʻilo ʻoku fai pehē pe ia.

⁴⁴Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni kiate kimoutolu, Te ne fakanofo ia ke pule ki heʻene meʻa kotoa pē.

⁴⁵Pea ka pehē ʻe he tamaioʻeiki ko ia ʻi hono loto, ‘ʻOku fakatuotuai ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki ʻa ʻene haʻu;’ pea hanga ia ʻo taaʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga, pea kai mo inu ke konā:

⁴⁶‌ʻE haʻu ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe tamaioʻeiki ko ia ʻi ha ʻaho ʻe ʻikai ʻamanaki ia ki ai, pea ʻi ha feituʻulaʻā ʻe ʻikai tokanga ai ia, ʻo tuʻusi ia, pea tuʻutuʻuni ke ne ʻinasi fakataha mo e taʻetui.

⁴⁷Pea ko e tamaioʻeiki ko ia naʻe ʻilo ʻae loto ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, ka naʻe ʻikai ke teuteu, pe fai ʻo fakatatau mo hono loto, ʻe taaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi tā lahi.
