Luke 23:3-42

³Pea fehuʻi ʻa Pailato kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e Tuʻi koe ʻoe kakai Siu?” Pea leaange ʻe ia kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko ia pe.”

⁴Pea pehē ai ʻe Pailato ki he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kakai, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo ha kovi ʻi he tangata ni.”

⁵Pea ʻāsili ai ʻenau lili, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ne veuveuki ʻae kakai, ʻo ne ako ʻi Siutea kotoa, ngata mei Kāleli ʻo aʻu ki he potu ni.”

⁶Pea kuo fanongo ʻa Pailato ki ai, pea fehuʻi ai ia pe ko e tangata Kāleli ia.

⁷Pea ʻi heʻene ʻilo ʻoku ne mei he feituʻu ʻoku pule ai ʻa Helota, pea ne fekau ia kia Helota, ʻaia naʻe ʻi Selūsalema foki ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia.

⁸Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Helota kia Sisu, naʻe fiefia lahi ia; he kuo fuoloa mo ʻene holi ke mamata ki ai, koeʻuhi kuo ne fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa lahi ʻiate ia: pea ne fakaʻamu ke mamata ki haʻa ne fai ha meʻa mana.

⁹Pea naʻe lahi ʻene ngaahi ʻeke kiate ia, ka naʻe ʻikai siʻi lea ʻe ia ki ai.

¹⁰Pea naʻe tutuʻu ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau tangata tohi, ʻonau talatalaaki mālohi ia.

¹¹Pea taukaea ia ʻe Helota, mo ʻene kautau, mo nau manukiʻi, pea nau ʻai ʻae kofu ngingila kiate ia, ʻo toe fekau ia kia Pailato.

¹²Pea ko e ʻaho ko ia naʻe feʻofoʻofani ai ʻa Pailato mo Helota: he kuo loa ʻena feʻiteʻitani.

¹³Pea kuo fakataha ʻe Pailato ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau matāpule, mo e kakai,

¹⁴Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Kuo mou ʻomi ʻae tangata ni kiate au, ʻo hangē ko ha taha ʻoku ne veuveuki ʻae kakai pea vakai, kuo u ʻekeaia ʻi homou ʻao; pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ha kovi ʻoe tangata ni ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ko ia ʻoku mou talatalaakiʻi ai ia:

¹⁵Pea ko Helota foki; he naʻaku fekau ʻakimoutolu kiate ia; pea vakai, ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻoku totonu ke mate ai ia.”

¹⁶Ko ia te u tautea ia, pea tukuange.”

¹⁷(He kuo totonu ke ne tukuange kiate kinautolu ha tokotaha ʻi he kātoanga.)

¹⁸Pea naʻa nau kalanga fakataha kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “ʻAve ʻae tangata ni, kae tuku mai ʻa Palāpasa kiate kimautolu:”

¹⁹(ʻAia naʻe lī ki he fale fakapōpula, koeʻuhi koʻene fakaaoao ʻi he kolo, mo e fakapō.)

²⁰Ka naʻe loto ʻa Pailato ke tukuange ʻa Sisu, ko ia ne ne toe lea ai kiate kinautolu.

²¹Ka naʻa nau kalanga, ʻo pehē, “Tutuki ki he ʻakau, tutuki ia ki he ʻakau.”

²²Pea lea ia kiate kinautolu ko hono tuʻo tolu, “Koeʻumaʻā, ko e hā ha kovi kuo ne fai? ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo ha meʻa ke mate ai ia: ko ia te u tautea ia, pea tukuange.”

²³Ka naʻe mālohi ʻenau lea pea longoaʻa lahi, ʻonau pehē, “Ke tutuki ia ki he ʻakau.” Pea naʻe mālohi ʻae leʻo ʻokinautolu mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi.

²⁴Pea fekau ʻe Pailato ke fai ʻo hangē ko honau loto.

²⁵Pea ne tukuange kiate kinautolu ia naʻa nau holi ki ai, ʻaia naʻe lī ki he fale fakapōpula, koeʻuhi ko e fakaaoao mo e fakapō; ka ne tukuange ʻa Sisu ki honau loto.

²⁶Pea ʻi heʻenau kei taki atu ia, naʻa nau puke ʻae tokotaha ko Saimone, ko e Sailini, ʻoku haʻu mei he tukuʻuta, pea naʻa nau hili kiate ia ʻae ʻakau, ke ne fua ʻo muimui ia Sisu.

²⁷Pea naʻe muimui kiate ia ʻae kakai tokolahi, mo e kau fefine, ʻonau tangi mo tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko ia.

²⁸Ka naʻe tafoki ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻAe ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Selūsalema, ʻOua naʻa mou tangi koeʻuhi ko au, kae tangi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, pea mo hoʻomou fānau.

²⁹Vakai, he ʻoku ofi mai ʻae ngaahi ʻaho te nau pehē ai, ‘ʻOku monūʻia ʻae paʻa, pea mo e manāva naʻe ʻikai fānau, mo e huhū naʻe ʻikai fakahuhūʻaki.’

³⁰Pea te nau toki kamata lea ai ki he ngaahi moʻunga, “Holo mai kiate kimautolu:” pea ki he ngaahi tafungofunga, “Uʻufi ʻakimautolu.”’

³¹He kapau te nau fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ki he ʻakau mata, ko e hā ʻe fai ki he mōmoa?”

³²Pea naʻe tataki mo ia foki ʻae ongo fai kovi ʻe toko ua ke tāmateʻi.

³³Pea kuo nau hoko ki he potu ʻoku ui ko Kalivali, naʻa nau tuki ia ʻi ai ki he ʻakau, mo e ongo fai kovi, ko e tokotaha ki he nima toʻomataʻu, mo e tokotaha ki he nima toʻohema.

³⁴Pea toki pehē ʻe Sisu, “ʻE Tamai, fakamolemole ʻakinautolu; he ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku nau fai.” Pea naʻa nau vahevahe ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, ʻo talotalo.

³⁵Pea tuʻu ʻae kakai, ʻo mamata. Pea nau manuki mo e kau matāpulekiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻae kakai; tuku ke ne fakamoʻui ia, ʻo kapau ko e Kalaisi ia, ko e ʻofeina ʻae ʻOtua.”

³⁶Pea manukiʻi foki ia ʻe he kau tau, mo nau ʻalu ange, ʻo ʻatu ʻae vaimahi kiate ia,

³⁷Mo nau pehē, “Kapau ko e tuʻi koe ʻoe kakai Siu, fakamoʻui koe.”

³⁸Pea naʻe tohi foki ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate ia, ʻae tohi ʻi he lea fakaKiliki, mo e lea fakaLoma, mo e lea fakaHepelū, KO ENI ʻAE TUʻI ʻOE KAKAI SIU.

³⁹Pea naʻe manuki kiate ia ʻae tokotaha ʻoe ongo fai kovi naʻe tautau, ʻo ne pehē, “Kapau ko e Kalaisi koe, fakamoʻui koe mo kimaua.”

⁴⁰Ka naʻe leaange ʻa hono toko ua, ʻo ne valoki ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai te ke manavahē koe ki he ʻOtua, he ʻoku ke malaʻia foki?

⁴¹Pea ʻoku totonu kiate kitaua, he ko e totongi totonu ʻo ʻeta ngāue: ka naʻe ʻikai ha kovi ʻe fai ʻe he tangata ni.”

⁴²Pea pehē ʻe ia kia Sisu, “ʻEiki ke ke manatuʻi au, ʻoka ke ka hoko ki ho puleʻanga.”
