Luke 9:21-50

²¹Pea ne naʻinaʻi mālohi mo fekau ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa fakahā ʻae meʻa ko ia ki ha taha;

²²‌ʻO ne pehē, “ʻE kātaki ʻe he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi, pea ʻe siʻaki ia ʻe he kau mātuʻa pea mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau tangata tohi, pea ʻe tāmateʻi ia, pea toe fokotuʻu ʻi hono ʻaho tolu.”

²³Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu kotoa pē, “Kapau ʻe muimui ha taha kiate au, tuku ke siʻaki ia ʻe ia, pea toʻo hake ʻene ʻakau māfasia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea muimui ʻiate au.

²⁴He ko ia ʻe kalofaki ʻene moʻui, ʻe mole ia; ka ko ia ʻe mole ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko au, ko ia pe ʻe maʻu ia.

²⁵He ko e hā hono ʻaonga ki he tangata, ʻo kapau ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ʻa māmani kotoa pē, kae mole ia, pe liaki ia?

²⁶He ko ia ʻe mā ʻiate au mo ʻeku ngaahi lea, ʻe mā ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoka haʻu ia ʻi hono nāunau ʻoʻona, mo ʻene Tamai, pea mo e kau ʻāngelo māʻoniʻoni.

²⁷Ka ʻoku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻOku tutuʻu ʻae niʻihi ʻi heni, ʻe ʻikai te nau kamata ʻae mate, kaeʻoua ke nau mamata ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”

²⁸Hili ʻae ngaahi lea ni, ko e ʻaho nai ʻe valu, naʻe ʻave ʻe ia ʻa Pita mo Sione mo Semisi, pea nau ō hake ki he moʻunga ke lotu.

²⁹Pea ʻi heʻene lotu, naʻe fakafoʻou ʻae anga ʻo hono fofonga, pea naʻe hinehina ʻo ngingila hono ngaahi kofu.

³⁰Pea vakai, naʻe alea mo ia ʻae tangata ʻe toko ua, ʻaia ko Mōsese mo ʻIlaisiā:

³¹‌ʻO na hā mai ʻi he nāunau, ʻonau alea ki heʻene pekia, ʻaia te ne fai ʻi Selūsalema.

³²Ka ko Pita mo kinaua naʻe ʻiate ia naʻa nau māfasia ʻi he fie mohe: pea ʻi heʻenau ʻā, naʻa nau mamata ki hono nāunau, pea mo e ongo tangata naʻa nau tutuʻu mo ia.

³³Pea pehē, ʻi he ʻena ʻalu ʻiate ia, naʻe pehē ʻe Pita kia Sisu, “ʻEiki, ʻoku lelei ʻetau ʻi heni: pea tuku ke mau ngaohi ha fale ʻe tolu; ke ʻoʻou ʻae taha, pea taha ʻo Mōsese, pea taha ʻo ʻIlaisiā:” ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe ia ʻene lea.

³⁴Pea lolotonga ʻene lea pehē, naʻe fakamalū ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae ʻao: pea naʻa nau manavahē ʻi heʻenau hū ki he ʻao.

³⁵Pea naʻe ongo mai ʻae leʻo mei he ʻao, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoku ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga eni: fanongo kiate ia.”

³⁶Pea hili ʻae lea, naʻe ʻilo ʻa Sisu ʻoku tokotaha pe. Pea naʻa nau fufū eni, ʻo ʻikai fakahā ki ha tokotaha, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, ha meʻa ʻe taha kuo nau mamata ki ai.

³⁷Pea pehē, ʻi he pongipongi hake, naʻa nau ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, pea fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻae fuʻu kakai,

³⁸Pea vakai, naʻe kalanga mai ʻae tangata ʻi he kakai, ʻo pehē, “ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke vakai ki hoku foha: he ko ʻeku tamasiʻi tokotaha pe ia.

³⁹Pea vakai, ʻoku puke ia ʻe he laumālie, pea fokifā ʻoku tangi kalanga ia; pea ʻoku ne haeʻi ke koā ai ia, pea ʻoku ne haʻaki ia, pea ʻalu ai ʻi he taʻefieʻalu.”

⁴⁰Pea ne u kole ki hoʻo kau ākonga ke kapusi ia; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai.

⁴¹Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange, “ʻAe toʻutangata taʻetui mo angakovi, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo ʻetau nonofo, mo ʻeku kātaki ʻakimoutolu? ʻOmi ho foha ki heni.”

⁴²Pea ʻi heʻene haʻu, naʻe haʻaki ia ʻe he tēvolo, mo haeʻi. Pea naʻe tautea ʻe Sisu ʻae laumālie ʻuli, mo fakamoʻui ʻae tamasiʻi, ʻo toe ʻatu ia ki heʻene tamai.

⁴³Pea naʻa nau ofo kotoa pē ʻi he māfimafi lahi ʻoe ʻOtua. Ka ʻi heʻenau ofo kotoa pē ʻi he meʻa fulipē naʻe fai ʻe Sisu, pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga,

⁴⁴“Tuku ke ongo ki ho ʻoʻou telinga ʻae ngaahi lea ko eni: ʻe tukuange ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he nima ʻoe kakai.”

⁴⁵Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae lea ni, pea naʻe fufū ia meiate kinautolu, pea ʻikai ai te nau ʻilo ia: pea naʻa nau manavahē ke fehuʻi kiate ia ʻi he lea ko ia.

⁴⁶Pea naʻe tupu ʻiate kinautolu ʻae fakakikihi, pe ko hai ʻe lahi ʻiate kinautolu.

⁴⁷Pea ʻiloʻi ʻe Sisu ʻae mahalo ʻa honau loto, pea toʻo mai ʻe ia ʻae tamasiʻi, ʻo tuku ia ke ofi kiate ia,

⁴⁸‌ʻO ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko ia ia ʻe maʻu ʻae tamasiʻi ni ʻi hoku huafa, ʻoku ne maʻu au; pea ko ia ia ʻoku ne maʻu au, ʻoku ne maʻu ʻaia naʻa ne fekau au: he ko ia ʻoku siʻi ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē, ko ia ia ʻe lahi.”

⁴⁹Pea lea ʻa Sione, ʻo pehēange, “ʻEiki, naʻa mau mamata ki ha taha ʻoku kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo ʻi ho huafa; pea naʻa mau taʻofi ia, he ʻoku ʻikai ke muimui ia mo kimautolu.”

⁵⁰Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa taʻofi: he ko ia ʻoku ʻikai angatuʻu kiate kitautolu ʻoku kau ia mo kitautolu.”
