Luke 11
1 And it came to pass, that as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
Pea naʻe pehē, naʻe lotu ia ʻi he potu ʻe taha, pea hili ia, naʻe pehē ʻe he tokotaha ʻo ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, “ʻEiki, akonakiʻi ʻakimautolu ke lotu, ʻo hangē ko e ako ʻa Sione ki heʻene kau ākonga.”
2 And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so on earth.
Pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOka mou ka lotu, mou pehē, Ko ʻemau Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi, Ke tāpuhā ho huafa. Ke hoko mai hoʻo pule. Ke fai ʻa māmani ki ho finangalo, ʻo hangē ʻi he langi.
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
Ke foaki mai kiate kimautolu haʻamau meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē.
4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.
Pea ke fakamolemole kiate kimautolu ʻemau angahala; He ʻoku mau fakamolemole foki ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku angahala mai kiate kimautolu. Pea ʻoua naʻa tuku kimautolu ki he ʻahiʻahi; Kae fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu mei he kovi.”
5 And he said to them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves:
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko hai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻe ai hano kāinga, ʻe ʻalu atu kiate ia ʻi he tuʻuapō, ʻo pehē ki ai, ‘Kāinga, ko ʻeku nō ʻae foʻi mā ʻe tolu;
6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?
He ko e kāinga ʻoʻoku kuo haʻu kiate au ʻi he fononga, pea ʻoku ʻikai haʻaku meʻa ke tuku ki hono ʻao?’
7 And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.
Pea ʻe lea mai ʻaia ʻoku ʻi loto fale, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOua te ke fakafiuʻi au; kuo tāpuni ʻae matapā, pea kuo mau ʻi he mohenga mo ʻeku fānau; ʻe ʻikai te u faʻa tuʻu hake ʻo foaki kiate koe.’
8 I say to you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.
ʻOku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻE ʻikai tuʻu hake ia ʻo foaki ai, koeʻuhi ko hono kāinga ia, ka ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene kole tāumaʻu, ʻe tuʻu hake ai ia, ʻo foaki kiate ia ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene masiva.
9 And I say to you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and the door shall be opened to you.
“Pea ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Kole, pea ʻe foaki kiate kimoutolu; kumi, pea te mou ʻilo; tukituki, pea ʻe toʻo kiate kimoutolu.
10 For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, the door shall be opened.
He ko ia ʻoku kole, ʻoku ne maʻu; pea ko ia ʻoku kumi, ʻoku ne ʻilo; pea ʻe toʻo kiate ia ʻoku tukituki.
11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if [he shall ask] a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
Ko e tamai fē ʻiate kimoutolu, kapau ʻe kole mā ʻa hono foha, te ne ʻange ki ai ha maka? Pe ko e ika, ʻe tuku ʻae ika kae ʻatu ki ai ha ngata?
12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
Pe ʻi heʻene kole ʻae foʻi manu, te ne ʻatu ki ai ha sikopio?
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children: how much more will [your] heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit 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 ʻe he Tamai ʻi he langi ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni kiate kinautolu ʻoku kole kiate ia?”
14 And he was casting out a demon, and it was dumb. And it came to pass when the demon was gone out, the dumb spoke; and the people wondered.
Pea naʻe kapusi ʻae tēvolo, ʻaia naʻe noa. Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu kituʻa ʻae tēvolo, naʻe lea ʻae noa; pea ofo [ai ]ʻae kakai.
15 But some of them said, He casteth out demons through Beelzebub, the chief of the demons.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe honau niʻihi, “ʻOku ne kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo ia Pelisipupe ko e ʻeiki ʻoe kau tēvolo.”
16 And others tempting [him], sought from him a sign from heaven.
Pea ʻahiʻahi ʻe he niʻihi, ʻonau kumi ʻiate ia ha fakaʻilonga mei he langi.
17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house [divided] against a house falleth.
Ka naʻe ʻilo ʻe ia ʻenau mahalo, pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko e puleʻanga kotoa pē [ʻoku feʻiteʻitani, ]ʻe ʻauha ia; pea ko e fale ʻoku feʻiteʻitani, ʻe holo ia.
18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out demons through Beelzebub.
Pea kapau ʻe feʻiteʻitani ʻa Sētane kiate ia, ʻe tuʻu fēfē hono puleʻanga? He ʻoku mou pehē ʻoku ou kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo ia Pelisipupe.
19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast [them] out? therefore shall they be your judges.
Pea kapau ʻoku ou kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo ʻia Pelisipupe, ʻoku kapusi ʻakinautolu ʻia hai ʻe homou ngaahi foha? Ko ia ko hoʻomou kau fakamaau [ʻakinautolu].
20 But if I with the finger of God cast out demons, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.
Pea kapau ʻoku ou kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo ʻaki ʻae louhiʻi nima ʻoe ʻOtua, tā kuo hoko moʻoni ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu.
21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:
“ʻOka leʻohi hono fale ʻe ha tangata mālohi mo e mahafutau, ʻoku malu pe ʻene ngaahi meʻa:
22 But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
Ka ʻi he hoko kiate ia ha taha ʻoku mālohi lahi, ʻo ikuʻi ia, ʻoku ne faʻao ʻa ʻene mahafu kotoa pē naʻe falala ia ki ai, pea tufaki ʻene meʻa.
23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.
“Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai kau mo au, ʻoku angatuʻu ia kiate au: pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai te ma tānaki mo au, ʻoku fakahē ʻe ia.
24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest: and finding none, he saith, I will return to my house whence I came out.
“ʻOka ʻalu ʻae laumālie ʻuli ʻi ha tangata, ʻoku ʻalu fano ia ʻi he ngaahi potu mōmoa, ʻo kumi mālōlōʻanga, kae ʻikai ʻilo [ia]; pea pehē ʻe ia, ‘Te u toe ʻalu ki hoku fale naʻaku haʻu mei ai.’
25 And when he cometh, he findeth [it] swept and garnished.
Pea ʻi heʻene haʻu, ʻoku ne ʻilo [ia ]kuo tafi mo teuteu.
26 Then he goeth and taketh [to him] seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last [state] of that man is worse than the first.
Pea toki ʻalu ai ia, ʻo ʻomi mo e laumālie ʻe toko fitu kehe ʻoku angahala lahi ʻiate ia; pea nau hū ʻo nofo ki ai: pea kovi lahi ʻa e [anga ]ki mui ʻae tangata ko ia ʻi heʻene [anga ]ʻi muʻa.
27 And it came to pass, as he was speaking these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said to him, Blessed [is] the womb that bore thee, and the paps which nourished thee.
Pea pehē, naʻe lolotonga ʻene lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, mo e kalanga mai ʻae fefine mei he kakai, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku monūʻia ʻae manāva naʻa ne fua ʻaki koe, pea mo e huhu naʻa ke huhū ai.”
28 But he said, Yes, rather blessed [are] they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻIo, ka ʻoku monūʻia lahi hake ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau fanongo ki he folofola ʻae ʻOtua, pea fai ki ai.”
29 And when the people were assembled in crowds, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
Pea kuo lolofi mai ʻae kakai tokolahi, pea fua lea ia, [ʻo pehē], “Ko e toʻutangata angakovi eni; ʻoku nau kumi ʻae fakaʻilonga; ka ʻe ʻikai ha fakaʻilonga ʻe tuku ki ai, ka ko e fakaʻilonga ʻoe palōfita ko Siona.
30 For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also shall the Son of man be to this generation.
ʻO hangē ko e fakaʻilonga ʻa Siona ki he kakai Ninive, ʻe pehē foki ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he toʻutangata ni.
31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth, to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon [is] here.
ʻE tuʻu hake ʻae tuʻi-fefine ʻoe feituʻu tonga ʻi he fakamaau mo e kakai ʻoe toʻutangata ni, ʻo fakahalaʻia ia; he naʻe haʻu ia mei he potu mamaʻo ʻo māmani ke fanongo ki he poto ʻa Solomone; pea vakai, ʻoku ʻi heni ʻaia ʻoku lahi ʻia Solomone.
32 The men of Nineveh shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, a greater than Jonah [is] here.
ʻE tuʻu hake ʻae kakai ʻo Ninive ʻi he fakamaau mo e toʻutangata ni, ʻo fakahalaʻia ia: he naʻa nau fakatomala ʻi he malanga ʻa Siona; pea vakai, ʻoku ʻi heni ʻaia ʻoku lahi ʻia Siona.
33 No man when he hath lighted a candle, putteth [it] in a secret place, neither under a close vessel, but on a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.
“ʻOku ʻikai ha taha te ne tutu ha maama, pea tuku [ia ]ki ha potu lilo, pe ʻi he lalo puha fua, ka ki he tuʻunga, koeʻuhi ke mamata ki he maama ʻakinautolu ʻoku hū ki ai.
34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thy eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when [thy eye] is evil, thy body also [is] full of darkness.
Ko e maama ʻoe sino ʻae mata: ko ia kapau ʻe haohaoa ho mata, ʻe pito foki ho sino kotoa ʻi he maama; ko ia kapau ʻoku kovi [ho mata], ʻe fonu foki ho sino ʻi he poʻuli.
35 Take heed therefore, that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
Ko ia vakai naʻa hoko ʻae maama ʻoku ʻiate koe koe poʻuli.
36 If thy whole body therefore [be] full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light; as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.
Ko ia kapau ʻe māmangia ho sino kotoa, pea taʻefakapoʻuli hano potu, ʻe māmangia kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ko e fakamaama ʻaki koe ʻae fuʻu ulo ʻoe maama.”
37 And as he was speaking, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to eat.
Pea lolotonga ʻene lea, mo ʻene kole ʻae Fālesi ʻe tokotaha kiate ia ke na kai mo ia: pea ʻalu ia ki ai, ʻo nofo hifo ke kai.
38 And when the Pharisee saw [it], he marveled that he had not first washed before dinner.
Pea ofo ʻae Fālesi ʻi heʻene mamata naʻe ʻikai te ne tomuʻa fanofano, pea toki kai.
39 And the Lord said to him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.
Pea pehē ʻe he ʻEiki kiate ia, “Ko eni ʻakimoutolu, ʻae kau Fālesi, ʻoku mou fakamaʻa ʻae tuʻa ipu inu mo e ipu kai, ka ʻoku fonu homou loto ʻi he fakamālohi mo e angakovi.
40 [Ye] fools, did not he that made that which is without, make that which is within also?
ʻAe kau vale, ʻikai ko ia pe naʻa ne ngaohi ʻaia ʻoku ʻituʻa, naʻe ngaohi foki ʻaia ʻoku ʻi loto?
41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and behold, all things are clean to you.
Ka mou foaki muʻa ʻae ngaahi meʻaʻofa mei he meʻa ʻoku mou maʻu; pea vakai, ʻoku maʻa ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kiate kimoutolu.
42 But woe to you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint, and rue, and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the others undone.
“Kae malaʻia ʻakimoutolu, ʻae kau Fālesi! He ʻoku mou tukuhau ʻi he mini mo e pekano mo e ngaahi ʻakau iiki kotoa pē, ka ʻoku mou taʻetokanga ki he fakamaau mo e ʻofa ki he ʻOtua: naʻe totonu ke fai eni, kaeʻoua naʻa liʻaki ʻena.
43 Woe to you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.
“ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu, ʻae kau Fālesi! He ʻoku mou manako ki he ngaahi nofoʻanga māʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi falelotu, mo e fetapa ʻi he ngaahi potu fakatau.
44 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over [them] are not aware [of them].
ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu, ʻae kau tangata tohi mo e Fālesi, ko e mālualoi! He ʻoku mou tatau mo e ngaahi faʻitoka ʻoku ʻikai hā mai, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo [ia ]ʻe he kakai ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ai.”
45 Then answered one of the lawyers, and said to him, Master, thus saying, thou reproachest us also.
Pea toki lea mai ʻae tokotaha ʻoe kau akonaki ʻi he fono, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻi hoʻo pehē mai, ʻoku ke valoki ai ʻakimautolu foki.”
46 And he said, Woe to you also, [ye] lawyers, for ye load men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu foki, ʻae kau akonaki ʻi he fono! He ʻoku mou hili ki he kakai ʻae ngaahi kavenga ʻoku fakamamahi hono fua, ka ʻoku ʻikai ala ʻekimoutolu haʻamou tuhu ʻe taha ki he ngaahi kavenga.
47 Woe to you! for ye build the sepulchers of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu! He ʻoku mou langa ʻae ngaahi fonualoto ʻoe kau palōfita, ʻakinautolu naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai.
48 Truly ye bear testimony, that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchers.
Ko e moʻoni ʻoku mou fakamoʻoni ʻoku mou leleiʻia ʻi he faianga ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai: he naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu, pea ʻoku mou langa honau ngaahi fonualoto.
49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and [some] of them they will slay and persecute:
Ko ia naʻe pehē ai foki ʻae poto ʻae ʻOtua, ‘Te u fekau atu kiate kinautolu ʻae kau palōfita mo e kau ʻaposetolo, pea ko honau niʻihi te nau tāmateʻi mo fakatanga:’
50 That the blood of all the prophets, which hath been shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
Koeʻuhi ke ʻeke ki he toʻutangata ni ʻae toto ʻoe kau palōfita kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe lilingi talu mei he tupuʻanga ʻo māmani;
51 From the blood of Abel to the blood of Zacharias, who perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.
Mei he toto ʻo ʻEpeli, ʻo aʻu ki he toto ʻo Sakalaia, ʻaia naʻe tāmateʻi ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ʻesifeilaulau mo e potu toputapu: ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻE ʻeke ia mei he toʻutangata ni.
52 Woe to you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye have not entered in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
“ʻE malaʻia ʻakimoutolu, ʻae kau akonaki ʻi he fono! He kuo mou ʻave ʻae ki ʻoe ʻilo, pea ʻoku ʻikai te mou hū ki ai ʻakimoutolu, pea ko kinautolu naʻe teu ke hū ki ai naʻa mou taʻofi.”
53 And as he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge [him] vehemently, and to solicit him to speak of many things;
Pea ʻi heʻene lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kiate kinautolu, naʻe kamata fai fakamatalili mo langaʻi ia ʻe he kau tangata tohi mo e kau Fālesi, ke ne lea ki he ngaahi meʻa lahi:
54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something from his mouth, that they might accuse him.
ʻO nau lamasi, mo kumi ke femioʻekina ia mei hono ngutu, koeʻuhi ke nau talatalaakiʻi ia.
