Luke 9
1And he called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases,
1PEA naʻe toki ui ia ke fakataha ʻene kau ākonga ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, pea ne tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae mālohi mo e pule ki he kau tēvolo kotoa pē, pea ke fakamoʻui ʻae ngaahi mahaki.
2and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal.
2Pea ne fekau atu ʻakinautolu ke malangaʻaki ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, mo fakamoʻui ʻae mahaki.
3And he said to them,“Take nothing for your journey, no staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money; and do not have two tunics.
3Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa ʻave ha meʻa ʻi hoʻomou fononga, ʻae ngaahi tokotoko, pea ha kato, pe ha mā, pe ha paʻanga; pe te mou taki ua ʻae kofutuʻa.
4And whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart.
4Pea ko e fale ko ia te mou hū ki ai, mou nofo ai, pea toki ʻalu ai.
5And wherever they do not receive you, when you leave that town shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.”
5Pea ko e potu ko ia ʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ʻakimoutolu ʻi ai, ʻoka mou ka ʻalu ʻi he kolo ko ia, mou tūtuuʻi ʻae efu ʻi homou vaʻe ko e fakamoʻoni kiate kinautolu.”
6And they departed and went through the villages, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.
6Pea naʻa nau ʻalu, ʻo fononga ʻi he ngaahi potu kakai, pea malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei, mo nau fakamoʻui ʻi he potu kotoa pē.
7Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead,
7Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa Helota ko e tuʻi ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe ia: pea naʻa ne puputuʻu ai, koeʻuhi naʻe pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Kuo toetuʻu ʻa Sione mei he mate.”
8by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the prophets of old had risen.
8Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Kuo hā mai ʻa ʻIlaisiā; mo e niʻihi, Kuo toetuʻu ha taha ʻi he kau palōfita motuʻa.”
9Herod said, “John I beheaded, but who is this about whom I hear such things?” And he sought to see him.
9Pea pehē ʻe Helota, “Kuo u tutuʻu ʻae ʻulu ʻo Sione; ka ko hai eni, ʻoku ou fanongo ki ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni?” Pea ne ne holi ke mamata kiate ia.
10On their return the apostles told him all that they had done. And he took them and withdrew apart to a town called Bethsaida.
10Pea kuo liu mai ʻae kau ʻaposetolo, pea nau fakahā kotoa pē kiate ia ʻaia kuo nau fai. Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻakinautolu, ʻo afe fakafufū ki he potu lala ʻoe kolo ʻoku ui ko Petesaita.
11When the crowds learned it, they followed him, and he welcomed them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God and cured those who had need of healing.
11Pea kuo ʻilo ia ʻe he kakai, naʻa nau muimui kiate ia: pea ne maʻu ʻakinautolu, ʻo ne lea kiate kinautolu, ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, pea naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻaia naʻe ʻaonga ke fakamoʻui.
12Now the day began to wear away, and the twelve came and said to him, “Send the crowd away to go into the surrounding villages and countryside to find lodging and get provisions, for we are here in a desolate place.”
12Pea kuo tei ʻosi ʻae ʻaho, pea haʻu ʻae toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Fekau ke ʻalu ʻae kakai, koeʻuhi ke nau ō ki he ngaahi potu kakai mo e ngaahi nofoʻanga kakai ofi mai, ʻo mohe ai, pea maʻu ai ʻae meʻa kai; he ʻoku tau ʻi heni ko e potu lala.”
13But he said to them,“You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish—unless we are to go and buy food for all these people.”
13Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Mou ʻatu ha meʻakai kiate kinautolu.” Pea naʻa nau pehēange, “ʻOku ʻikai haʻatau meʻa ka ko e foʻi mā ʻe nima mo e ika ʻe ua, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te mau ō, ʻo fakatau meʻakai mā ʻae kakai ni kotoa pē.”
14For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples,“Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”
14He naʻe toko nima afe nai ʻae tangata. Pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Pule ke nau nofo hifo ʻo tautau toko nimangofulu.”
15And they did so, and had them all sit down.
15Pea naʻa nau fai ia, mo pule ke nau nofo hifo kotoa pē.
16And taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and said a blessing over them. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd.
16Pea toʻo ʻe ia ʻae foʻi mā ʻe nima mo e ika ʻe ua, pea hanga hake ia ki he langi, ʻo ne tāpuaki ia, mo tofitofi, ʻo ʻatu ki he kau ākonga ke tufaki ki he kakai.
17And they all ate and were satisfied. And what was left over was picked up, twelve baskets of broken pieces.
17Pea naʻa nau kai ʻo mākona ai kotoa pē: pea naʻe tānaki ʻae toenga kai naʻe toe kiate kinautolu, pea pito ai ʻae kato ʻe hongofulu ma ua.
18Now it happened that as he was praying alone, the disciples were with him. And he asked them,“Who do the crowds say that I am?”
18Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene lotu tokotaha pe, kuo ʻalu ange ʻene kau ākonga: pea fehuʻi ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe he kakai, ko hai au?”
19And they answered, “John the Baptist. But others say, Elijah, and others, that one of the prophets of old has risen.”
19Pea naʻa nau lea, ʻo pehēange, “Ko Sione ko e Papitaiso;” kae pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Ko ʻIlaisiā;” pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Kuo toetuʻu ha taha ʻi he kau palōfita motuʻa.”
20Then he said to them,“But who do you say that I am?” And Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”
20Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu. “Ka ʻoku pehē ʻekimoutolu ko hai au?” Pea lea ʻa Pita, ʻo pehēange, “Koe Kalaisi koe ʻoe ʻOtua.”
21And he strictly charged and commanded them to tell this to no one,
21Pea ne naʻinaʻi mālohi mo fekau ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa fakahā ʻae meʻa ko ia ki ha taha;
22saying,“The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.”
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.”
23And he said to all,“If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
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.
24For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
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.
25For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?
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?
26For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
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.
27But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.”
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.”
28Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray.
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.
29And as he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became dazzling white.
29Pea ʻi heʻene lotu, naʻe fakafoʻou ʻae anga ʻo hono fofonga, pea naʻe hinehina ʻo ngingila hono ngaahi kofu.
30And behold, two men were talking with him, Moses and Elijah,
30Pea vakai, naʻe alea mo ia ʻae tangata ʻe toko ua, ʻaia ko Mōsese mo ʻIlaisiā:
31who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.
31ʻO na hā mai ʻi he nāunau, ʻonau alea ki heʻene pekia, ʻaia te ne fai ʻi Selūsalema.
32Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him.
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.
33And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here. Let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah”—not knowing what he said.
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.
34As he was saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.
34Pea lolotonga ʻene lea pehē, naʻe fakamalū ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae ʻao: pea naʻa nau manavahē ʻi heʻenau hū ki he ʻao.
35And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, my Chosen One; listen to him!”
35Pea naʻe ongo mai ʻae leʻo mei he ʻao, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoku ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga eni: fanongo kiate ia.”
36And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.
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.
37On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met him.
37Pea pehē, ʻi he pongipongi hake, naʻa nau ʻalu hifo mei he moʻunga, pea fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻae fuʻu kakai,
38And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.
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.
39And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him so that he foams at the mouth, and shatters him, and will hardly leave him.
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.”
40And I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not.”
40Pea ne u kole ki hoʻo kau ākonga ke kapusi ia; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai.
41Jesus answered,“O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.”
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.”
42While he was coming, the demon threw him to the ground and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
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.
43And all were astonished at the majesty of God. But while they were all marveling at everything he was doing, Jesus said to his disciples,
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“Let these words sink into your ears: The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.”
44“Tuku ke ongo ki ho ʻoʻou telinga ʻae ngaahi lea ko eni: ʻe tukuange ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he nima ʻoe kakai.”
45But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, so that they might not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
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.
46An argument arose among them as to which of them was the greatest.
46Pea naʻe tupu ʻiate kinautolu ʻae fakakikihi, pe ko hai ʻe lahi ʻiate kinautolu.
47But Jesus, knowing the reasoning of their hearts, took a child and put him by his side
47Pea ʻiloʻi ʻe Sisu ʻae mahalo ʻa honau loto, pea toʻo mai ʻe ia ʻae tamasiʻi, ʻo tuku ia ke ofi kiate ia,
48and said to them,“Whoever receives this child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For he who is least among you all is the one who is great.”
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.”
49John answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not follow with us.”
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.”
50But Jesus said to him,“Do not stop him, for the one who is not against you is for you.”
50Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa taʻofi: he ko ia ʻoku ʻikai angatuʻu kiate kitautolu ʻoku kau ia mo kitautolu.”
51When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.
51Pea pehē, ʻi he ofi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ke maʻu hake ai ia ki ʻolunga, naʻa ne fakahangatonu hono fofonga ke ʻalu ki Selūsalema,
52And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make preparations for him.
52ʻO ne fekau ʻe ia ʻae kau fakamelomelo ke muʻomuʻa ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻa nau ō, ʻo hū ki he potu kakai ʻo Samēlia, ke teuteu ai kiate ia.
53But the people did not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem.
53Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ia, koeʻuhi naʻe hanga hono mata ʻo hangē ka ʻalu ia ki Selūsalema.
54And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, “Lord, do you want us to tell fire to come down from heaven and consume them?”
54Pea kuo mamata ki ai ʻene ākonga ko Semisi mo Sione, pea na pehē, “ʻEiki, ʻe lelei kiate koe ke ma fekau hifo ʻae afi mei he langi, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻe ʻIlaisiā?”
55But he turned and rebuked them.
55Ka naʻe tangaki ia ki mui, ʻo valoki ʻakinaua, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai siʻi te mo ʻilo ʻae anga ʻo homo loto.
56And they went on to another village.
56He naʻe ʻikai haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ke fakaʻauha ʻae moʻui ʻae kakai, ka ke fakamoʻui.” Pea naʻa nau ō ki he potu kakai ʻe taha.
57As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.”
57Pea ʻi heʻenau ō ʻi he hala, naʻe pehē ʻe he tokotaha kiate ia, “ʻEiki, te u muimui kiate koe ʻi he potu kotoa pē te ke ʻalu ki ai.”
58And Jesus said to him,“Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”
58Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOku maʻu ʻe he fanga fokisi ʻae tafu, pea ʻoku ʻi he fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā ʻae moheʻanga; ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he Foha ʻoe tangata ha potu ke tokoto ai hono ʻulu.”
59To another he said,“Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”
59Pea pehē ʻe ia ki ha taha kehe, “Muimui mai kiate au.” Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻEiki, tuku au ke u tomuʻa ʻalu ʻo tanu ʻeku tamai.”
60And Jesus said to him,“Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”
60Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Tuku ke tanu ʻe he mate honau mate; ka ke ʻalu koe ʻo malangaʻaki ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
61Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.”
61Pea naʻe pehē foki ʻe he tokotaha, “ʻEiki, te u muimui kiate koe; kae tuku au ke u tomuʻa ʻalu ʻo feʻiloaki mo kinautolu ʻi hoku fale.”
62Jesus said to him,“No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”
62Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOku ʻikai ha taha kuo ʻai hono nima ki he huo toho, kae sio ki mui, ʻe ʻaonga ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.”
