< John 10 >
1 Verily, verily, I say to you, He that enters not in by the door to the fold of the sheep, but mounts up elsewhere, he is a thief and a robber;
“Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai hū ʻi he matapā ki he lotoʻā sipi, ka ʻoku kaka hake ʻi he hala kehe, ko e kaihaʻa ia mo e fakamālohi.
2 but he that enters in by the door is [the] shepherd of the sheep.
Ka ko ia ʻoku hū ʻi he matapā, ko e tauhi ia ʻoe fanga sipi.
3 To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.
ʻOku toʻo kiate ia ʻe he leʻo; pea fanongo ki hono leʻo ʻae fanga sipi pea ʻoku ne ui ʻae sipi ʻaʻana ʻi [honau hingoa ]ʻo ne tataki atu ʻakinautolu.
4 When he has put forth all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
Pea ka tuku atu ʻe ia ʻene sipi ʻaʻana ʻoku ʻalu muʻomuʻa ia ʻiate kinautolu, pea muimui ʻae sipi ʻiate ia: he ʻoku nau ʻilo hono leʻo.”
5 But they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice of strangers.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te nau muimui ʻi ha foʻou, ka te nau hola meiate ia: he ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae leʻo ʻoe foʻou.
6 This allegory spoke Jesus to them, but they did not know what it was [of] which he spoke to them.
Naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Sisu ʻae fakatātā ni kiate kinautolu: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene lea kiate kinautolu.
7 Jesus therefore said again to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
Pea toe tala ai ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Ko au ko e matapā ki he fanga sipi.
8 All whoever came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them.
Ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate au, ko e kau kaihaʻa mo e fakamālohi: ka naʻe ʻikai fanongo ʻae fanga sipi kiate kinautolu.
9 I am the door: if any one enter in by me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and shall go out and shall find pasture.
Ko au pe ko e matapā: pea ko ia ʻe hū ange ʻiate au, ʻe moʻui ia, pea ʻe feʻaluʻaki ai pe ia, ʻo maʻu ʻae meʻakai.
10 The thief comes not but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I am come that they might have life, and might have [it] abundantly.
ʻOku ʻikai haʻu ʻae kaihaʻa, ka ke kaihaʻasi, pea ke tāmateʻi, pea ke fakaʻauha: kuo u haʻu au ke nau maʻu ʻae moʻui, pea ke nau maʻu ia ʻo lahi ʻaupito.
11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep:
“Ko au ko e tauhi lelei: ʻoku foaki ʻe he tauhi lelei ʻa ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko e fanga sipi.
12 but he who serves for wages, and who is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf seizes them and scatters the sheep.
Ka ko ia ʻoku unga ki he ngāue, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e tauhi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻana ʻae fanga sipi, ʻoku mamata ia ʻoku haʻu ʻae ulofi, pea siʻaki ʻae fanga sipi, kae hola: pea moʻua ia ʻe he ulofi, ʻo fakahēʻi ʻae fanga sipi.
13 Now he who serves for wages flees because he serves for wages, and is not himself concerned about the sheep.
ʻOku hola ʻae unga ngāue, koeʻuhi ko e unga ngāue [pe ]ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻofa ia ki he fanga sipi.
14 I am the good shepherd; and I know those that are mine, and am known of those that are mine,
Ko au ko e tauhi lelei; pea hangē ʻoku ʻilo au ʻe he Tamai, peau ʻilo foki ʻae Tamai,
15 as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
[ʻOku pehē ]ʻa ʻeku ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻaku, mo e ʻilo au ʻekinautolu: pea ʻoku ou tuku hifo ʻeku moʻui koeʻuhi ko e fanga sipi.
16 And I have other sheep which are not of this fold: those also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, one shepherd.
Pea ʻoku ai mo ʻeku fanga sipi kehe, ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he lotoʻā ko eni: te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu foki, pea te nau fanongo ki hoku leʻo; pea ʻe ai ʻae lotoʻā pe taha, mo e tauhi pe taha.”
17 On this account the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again.
Ko ia ʻoku ʻofa ai ʻa ʻeku Tamai kiate au, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku tuku hifo ʻeku moʻui, kau toe toʻo ia.
18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment of my Father.
ʻOku ʻikai ke toʻo ia ʻe ha taha ʻiate au, ka ʻoku ou tuku hifo ia ʻeau pe. ʻOku ou mafai ke tuku hifo ia, pea ʻoku ou mafai ke toe toʻo ia. Ko e fekau ni kuo u maʻu mei heʻeku Tamai.”
19 There was a division again among the Jews on account of these words;
Pea naʻe toe fakakikihi ʻae kakai Siu, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi lea ni.
20 but many of them said, He has a demon and raves; why do ye hear him?
Pea pehē ʻe honau tokolahi, “ʻOku ʻiate ia ha tēvolo, pea ʻoku faha; ko e hā ʻoku mou fanongo ai kiate ia?”
21 Others said, These sayings are not [those] of one that is possessed by a demon. Can a demon open blind people's eyes?
Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “ʻOku ʻikai ko e lea eni ʻa ha taha ʻoku ʻi ai ha tēvolo. ʻE mafai ʻe ha tēvolo ke fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻoe kui?”
22 Now the feast of the dedication was celebrating at Jerusalem, and it was winter.
Pea naʻe fai ʻi Selūsalema ʻae kātoanga ʻoe fakafoʻou, pea ko e faʻahitaʻu momoko.
23 And Jesus walked in the temple in the porch of Solomon.
Pea naʻe ʻeveʻeva ʻa Sisu ʻi he falelotu lahi, ʻi he fale hala ʻo Solomone.
24 The Jews therefore surrounded him, and said to him, Until when dost thou hold our soul in suspense? If thou art the Christ, say [so] to us openly.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai Siu, ʻo kāpui ia, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻo taʻefakaʻilo kiate kimautolu? Kapau ko e Kalaisi koe, tala totonu mai kiate kimautolu.”
25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye do not believe. The works which I do in my Father's name, these bear witness concerning me:
Pea leaange ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Naʻaku tala kiate kimoutolu, ka naʻe ʻikai te mou tui: ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻoku ou fai ʻi he huafa ʻo ʻeku Tamai, ʻoku fakamoʻoniʻi ai au.”
26 but ye do not believe, for ye are not of my sheep, as I told you.
Ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou tui, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ʻi heʻeku fanga sipi ʻakimoutolu.
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;
ʻOku fanongo ʻeku fanga sipi ki hoku leʻo, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku tala kiate kimoutolu: pea ʻoku ou ʻiloa ʻakinautolu, pea ʻoku nau muimui ʻiate au:
28 and I give them life eternal; and they shall never perish, and no one shall seize them out of my hand. (aiōn , aiōnios )
Pea ʻoku ou foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae moʻui taʻengata; pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te nau ʻauha, pe ʻe ʻikai ha taha te ne hamusi ʻakinautolu mei hoku nima. (aiōn , aiōnios )
29 My Father who has given [them] to me is greater than all, and no one can seize out of the hand of my Father.
Ko ʻeku Tamai, ʻaia naʻa ne foaki mai kiate au, ʻoku lahi taha pe ia; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku faʻa hamusi mei he nima ʻo ʻeku Tamai.
30 I and the Father are one.
Ko au mo e Tamai ʻoku ma taha pe.
31 The Jews therefore again took stones that they might stone him.
Pea toe toʻo hake ʻe he kakai Siu ʻae maka, ke nau tolongaki ʻaki ia.
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewn you of my Father; for which work of them do ye stone me?
Pea leaange ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Kuo lahi ʻae ngāue lelei kuo u fakahā kiate kimoutolu mei heʻeku Tamai; ko e ngāue fē ia ʻoku mou tolongakiʻi ai au?
33 The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy, and because thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
Pea talaange ʻe he kau Siu kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ko ha ngāue lelei ʻoku mau tolongakiʻi ai koe; ka ko e fie ʻOtua pe; koeʻuhi ko e tangata pe ʻa koe, ka ʻoku ke fai ke ʻOtua.”
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai kuo tohi ʻi hoʻomou fono, Ne u pehē, ‘Ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻakimoutolu?’
35 If he called them gods to whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken),
Kapau ʻoku ui ko e ʻotua ʻakinautolu naʻe folofola ki ai ʻae ʻOtua, pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa liʻaki ʻae tohi;
36 do ye say of him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am Son of God?
ʻOku mou pehē kiate ia kuo fakatapui ʻe he Tamai, ʻo fekau ki māmani, ʻOku ke fie ʻOtua; koeʻuhi naʻaku pehē, Ko e ʻAlo au ʻoe ʻOtua?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not;
Kapau ʻoku ʻikai te u fai ʻae ngāue ʻo ʻeku Tamai, ʻoua te mou tui kiate au.
38 but if I do, even if ye believe not me, believe the works, that ye may know [and believe] that the Father is in me and I in him.
Ka ʻi heʻeku fai ia, kapau ʻoku ʻikai te mou tui kiate au, tui ki he ngāue: koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo, mo tui, ʻoku ʻiate au ʻae Tamai, mo au ʻiate ia.”
39 They sought therefore again to take him; and he went away from out of their hand
Ko ia naʻa nau toe fie puke ai ia: ka naʻa ne fakahaofi ia mei honau nima,
40 and departed again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptising at the first: and he abode there.
ʻO toe ʻalu ki he potu ʻituʻa Sioatani, ʻaia naʻe tomuʻa fai papitaiso ai ʻa Sione; pea nofo ai ia.
41 And many came to him, and said, John did no sign; but all things which John said of this [man] were true.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae tokolahi kiate ia, ʻonau pehē, “Naʻe ʻikai fai ʻe Sione ha mana: ka ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe lea ki ai ʻa Sione ki he tangata ni, ʻoku moʻoni.”
42 And many believed on him there.
Pea naʻe tui ʻae tokolahi ʻi ai kiate ia.
