Matthew 7
1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
“ʻOua naʻa mou fakamaau, telia naʻa fakamaaua ʻakimoutolu.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye will be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it will be measured to you.
He ko e anga ko ia ʻoku mou fakamaau ʻaki, ʻe fakamaaua ai ʻakimoutolu: pea ko e fuofua ko ia te mo fua ʻaki, ʻe toe fua ʻaki ia kiate kimoutolu.
3 And why dost thou look at the mote that is in thy brother's eye, and not perceive the beam in thine own eye?
Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke tokanga ai ki he malamalaʻi ʻakau ʻoku ʻi he mata ʻo ho kāinga, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke tokanga ki he fuʻu ʻakau ʻoku ʻi ho mata ʻoʻou?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me take the mote out of thine eye; when, lo! the beam is in thine own eye?
Pea ʻe fēfē haʻo faʻa pehē ki ho kāinga, ‘Tuku ke u toʻoa mai ʻae malamalaʻi ʻakau mei ho mata:’ kae vakai, [ʻoku ai ]ʻae fuʻu ʻakau ʻi ho mata ʻoʻou?
5 Hypocrite! first cast the beam out of thine own eye; and then wilt thou see clearly to take the mote out of thy brother's eye.
Ko e mālualoi koe, tomuʻa, lī ʻae fuʻu ʻakau mei ho mata ʻoʻou; pea te ke toki mamata totonu ke toʻo ʻae malamalaʻi ʻakau mei he mata ʻo ho kāinga.
6 Give not that which is holy to dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine; lest they trample them under their feet, and turn upon you and rend you.
“ʻOua naʻa ʻoatu ʻae meʻa māʻoniʻoni ki he fanga kulī, pe sī hoʻomou mataʻitofe ki he fanga puaka, telia naʻa nau malamalaki ia ʻi honau lalo vaʻe, pea foki mai ʻo haehae ʻakimoutolu.
7 Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and ye will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
“Kole, pea ʻe foaki ia kiate kimoutolu; kumi, pea te mou ʻilo; tukituki, pea ʻe toʻo ia kiate kimoutolu:
8 For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, the door will be opened.
He ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku kole, ʻoku ne maʻu; pea ko ia ʻoku kumi, ʻoku ne ʻilo; pea ko ia ʻoku tukituki, ʻe toʻo kiate ia.
9 Or what man is there of you, who, if his son ask for bread, will give him a stone?
He ko e tangata fē ʻiate kimoutolu, kapau ʻe kole mā ʻe hono foha, te ne ʻoange ki ai ha maka?
10 or, if he ask for a fish, will give him a serpent?
Pe kapau te ne kole ha ika, ʻe ʻoange ki ai ha ngata?
11 If ye then, though evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him!
Ko ia kapau ʻoku mou ʻilo, ka ko e angakovi, ke foaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa lelei ki hoʻomou fānau, ʻe fēfē hono lahi hake ʻoe [fie ]foaki ʻae ngaahi lelei ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi kiate kinautolu ʻoku kole kiate ia?
12 All things, then, whatever ye would that men should do to you, do ye also so to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.
Ko ia, ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku mou loto ke fai ʻe he kakai kiate kimoutolu, ke mou fai ia kiate kinautolu: he ko e fono ia mo e kau palōfita.
13 Enter in at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction; and many are they who go in thereat.
“Mou hū ʻi he matapā fāsiʻi: he ʻoku fālahi ʻae matapā, mo ʻataʻatā ʻae hala, ʻoku fakatau ki he mate, pea ʻoku hū ai ʻae tokolahi.
14 For strait is the gate, and narrow the way, that leadeth to life; and few are they who find it.
Koeʻuhi ʻoku fāsiʻi ʻae matapā, mo lausiʻi ʻae hala, ʻoku fakatau ki he moʻui, pea ʻoku ʻilo ia ʻe he tokosiʻi pe.
15 Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
“Vakai telia ʻae kau palōfita kākā, ʻoku haʻu kiate kimoutolu ʻoku kofu fakasipi, ka ko e fanga ulofi fekai ʻi loto ʻakinautolu.
16 Ye may know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Te mou ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi fua. He ʻoku toli ʻe he kakai ʻae fua ʻoe vaine ʻi he ʻakau talatala, pe ko e fiki ʻi he talatalaʻāmoa?
17 So every good tree beareth good fruit; but a bad tree beareth bad fruit.
Pea pehē, ʻoku tupu ʻi he ʻakau lelei kotoa pē ʻae fua lelei; kae tupu ʻi he ʻakau kovi ʻae fua kovi.
18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor call a bad tree bear good fruit.
ʻE ʻikai faʻa tupu ʻi he ʻakau lelei ʻae fua kovi, pe tupu ʻi he ʻakau kovi ʻae fua lelei.
19 Every tree that beareth not good fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.
Ko e ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai tupu ai ʻae fua lelei ʻoku tā hifo, pea laku ki he afi.
20 So then ye may know them by their fruits.
Ko ia te mou ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi fua.
21 Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.
“ʻE ʻikai hū ki he puleʻanga ʻoe langi ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku pehē mai kiate au, ‘ʻEiki, ʻEiki,’ ka ko ia ʻoku ne fai ʻae finangalo ʻo ʻeku Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in thy name, and in thy name cast out demons, and in thy name work many miracles?
ʻE pehē kiate au ʻe he tokolahi ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ‘ʻEiki, ʻEiki, ʻikai naʻa mau akonaki ʻi ho huafa? Pea ʻi ho huafa naʻa mau kapusi kituʻa ʻae kau tēvolo? Pea ʻi ho huafa naʻa mau fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa mana lahi?’
23 And then will I declare to them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Pea te u toki fakahā kiate kinautolu, ‘Naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te u ʻiloa ʻakimoutolu: ʻalu ʻiate au ʻakimoutolu ʻoku fai kovi.’
24 Every one then that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened to a wise man, who built his house upon a rock;
“Ko ia ʻoku ne fanongo ki heʻeku tala ni, pea fai ki ai, te u fakatatau ia ki he tangata poto, naʻe langa hono fale ʻi he [funga ]maka:
25 and the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not; for it was founded upon a rock.
Pea tō ʻae ʻuha, pea ʻoho mai ʻae vai, pea hoko mo e havili, ʻo tō ki he fale ko ia; ka naʻe ʻikai holo ia: he naʻe langa ia ʻi he funga maka.
26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand;
“Ka ko ia ia ʻoku fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi tala ni, pea ʻikai fai ki ai, ʻe fakatatau ia ki he tangata vale, ʻaia naʻe langa hono fale ʻi he ʻoneʻone:
27 and the rain descended, and the streams came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell; and great was its fall.
Pea tō ʻae ʻuha, pea ʻoho mai ʻae vai, pea hoko mo e havili, ʻo tō ki he fale ko ia; pea holo ia: pea ko e meʻa lahi ʻa hono holoki.”
28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the multitudes were astonished at his teaching.
Pea kuo fakaʻosi ʻe Sisu ʻae ngaahi tala ni, pea ofo ʻae kakai ʻi heʻene akonaki:
29 For he taught them as having authority, and not as their scribes.
He naʻa ne akonakiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo taau mo ia ʻoku mālohi, kae ʻikai hangē ko e kau tangata tohi.
