Luke 7:5-29

⁵He ʻoku ʻofa ia ki hotau kakai, pea ko ia ia ne langa ʻae falelotu moʻomautolu.”

⁶Pea ʻalu ʻa Sisu mo kinautolu. Pea kuo hoko ia ʻo vāofi mo e fale, pea fekau ʻe he ʻeikitau ʻa hono kāinga, ke lea ʻo pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoua naʻa ke ongosia ange koe: he ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻaonga ke ke hū ki hoku fale:

⁷Pea naʻe ʻikai te u mahalo ʻoku taau mo au ke u ʻalu atu kiate koe: ka ke fai haʻo lea, pea ʻe moʻui ai ʻeku tamaioʻeiki.

⁸He ko au ko e tangata puleʻia foki, ka ʻoku ai ʻae kautau ʻoku ou puleʻi pea ʻoku ou pehē ki ha taha, ‘ʻAlu,’ pea ʻalu ia; pea ki ha taha, ‘Haʻu,’ pea haʻu ia; pea ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ‘Fai eni,’ pea ʻoku ne fai ia.

⁹Pea ofo ʻa Sisu kiate ia, ʻi heʻene fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, pea tafoki ia, ʻo ne pehē ki he kakai naʻe muimui ʻiate ia, “ʻOku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Naʻa mo ʻIsileli, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ai ha tui ʻe pehē ni hono lahi.”

¹⁰Pea liu atu ki he fale ʻakinautolu naʻe fekau, ʻonau ʻilo ʻae tamaioʻeiki naʻe mahaki kuo moʻui ia.

¹¹Pea ʻi he ʻaho naʻa na feholoi, naʻe ʻalu ia ki he kolo naʻe ui ko Neini: pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻa ʻene kau ākonga tokolahi, mo e fuʻu kakai.

¹²Pea kuo ofi ia ki he matapā ʻoe kolo, pea vakai, naʻe fata mai kituaʻā ʻae tangata mate, ko e tama pe taha ia ʻa ʻene faʻē, pea ko e fefine ia kuo mate hono husepāniti: pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻoe kolo.

¹³Pea kuo mamata ki ai ʻae ʻEiki, pea manavaʻofa ia kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē ki ai, “ʻOua ʻe tangi.”

¹⁴Pea haʻu ia ʻo ala ki he fata: pea tuʻu pe ʻae kau fata. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Talavou, ʻoku ou pehē kiate koe, Tuʻu hake.”

¹⁵Pea nofo hake ia ʻaia naʻe mate, ʻo kamata lea. Pea ne ʻatu ia ki heʻene faʻē.

¹⁶Pea pukea kotoa pē ʻi he manavahē: pea nau fakamālō ki he ʻOtua, ʻo pehē, “Kuo tuʻu hake ʻae palōfita lahi ʻiate kitautolu;” pea, “Kuo ʻaʻahi ʻae ʻOtua ki hono kakai.”

¹⁷Pea naʻe mafola ʻa hono ongoongo ni ʻi Siutea kotoa pē, pea mo e potu fonua kotoa pē ko ia.

¹⁸Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe he kau ākonga ʻa Sione kiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.

¹⁹Pea naʻe ui ʻe Sione kiate ia ʻae toko ua ʻo ʻene kau ākonga, ʻo ne fekau ʻakinaua kia Sisu, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko koe ia naʻe pehē ʻe haʻu? Pe te mau ʻamanaki ki ha taha?”

²⁰Pea kuo haʻu ʻae ongo tangata kiate ia, ʻo na pehē, “Kuo fekau ʻakimaua kiate koe ʻe Sione ko e Papitaiso, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko koe ia naʻe pehē ʻe haʻu? Pe te tau ʻamanaki ki ha taha?’”

²¹Pea ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ko ia naʻa ne fakamoʻui ai ʻae tokolahi mei he ngaahi mahaki, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakamamahi, pea mo e kau laumālie kovi; pea naʻa ne fakaʻā ʻae tokolahi naʻe kui.

²²Pea toki lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinaua, “Mo ō, ʻo fakahā kia Sione ʻae ngaahi meʻa kuo mo mamata mo fanongo ki ai: kuo ʻa ʻae kui, kuo ʻeveʻeva ʻae pipiki, kuo maʻa ʻae kilia, kuo ongo ʻae tuli, kuo fokotuʻu ʻae mate, pea ʻoku malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ki he masiva.

²³Pea ʻoku monūʻia ia ʻaia ʻe ʻikai tūkia ʻiate au.”

²⁴Pea kuo ʻalu ʻae ongo tangata fekau ʻa Sione, pea toki lea ia ki he kakai ʻia Sione, “Naʻa mou ʻalu atu ki he toafa ke mamata ki he hā? Ki ha kaho ʻoku luluʻi ʻe he matangi?

²⁵Ka naʻa mou ʻalu atu ke mamata ki he hā? Ki ha tangata kuo kofuʻaki ʻae kofu molū? Vakai, he ko kinautolu ʻoku kofu fakalaukau, mo kai lelei, ʻoku ʻi he fale ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi.

²⁶Ka naʻa mou ʻalu atu ke mamata ki he hā? Ha palōfita? ʻIo, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu. ʻOku lahi hake ia ʻi he palōfita.

²⁷Ko ia ia kuo tohi ki ai, ʻo pehē, ‘Vakai, ʻoku ou fekau atu hoku fakamelomelo ke muʻomuʻa ʻi ho ʻao, Ke teuteu ʻe ia ho hala kiate koe.’

²⁸He ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku fanauʻi ʻe he fefine ʻoku ʻikai ha palōfita lahi hake ʻia Sione ko e Papitaiso: ka ko ia ʻoku siʻi taha pe ʻi he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻoku lahi ia ʻiate ia.”

²⁹Pea ko e kakai kotoa pē naʻe fanongo kiate ia, mo e kau tānaki tukuhau, naʻa nau fakahā ʻae angatonu ʻae ʻOtua, ʻi heʻenau papitaiso ʻi he papitaiso ʻa Sione.
