Thessalonicenses I 5
1 De temporibus autem, et momentis fratres non indigetis ut scribamus vobis.
Ka ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi kuonga mo e ngaahi faʻahitaʻu, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaonga, ʻe kāinga, ke u tohi kiate kimoutolu.
2 Ipsi enim diligenter scitis quia dies Domini, sicut fur in nocte, ita veniet.
He ʻoku mou ʻilo fakapapau, ko e ʻaho ʻoe ʻEiki ʻoku haʻu ʻo hangē ko e kaihaʻa ʻi he poʻuli.
3 Cum enim dixerint: Pax, et securitas: tunc repentius eis superveniet interitus, sicut dolor in utero habenti, et non effugient.
He ʻoka nau ka pehē, “Fiemālie mo lelei pe;” ʻe hoko fakafokifā ʻae fakaʻauha kiate kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e langā ki ha fefine feitama; pea ʻe ʻikai te nau hao.
4 Vos autem fratres non estis in tenebris, ut vos dies illa tamquam fur comprehendat:
Ka ko kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻi he poʻuli, koeʻuhi ke moʻua ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ʻaho ko ia ʻo hangē ha kaihaʻa.
5 omnes enim vos filii lucis estis, et filii diei: non sumus noctis, neque tenebrarum.
Ko e fānau ʻae maama ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē, mo e fānau ʻae ʻaho: ʻoku ʻikai ʻoe pō ʻakitautolu, pe ʻoe poʻuli.
6 Igitur non dormiamus sicut et ceteri, sed vigilemus, et sobrii simus.
Ko ia ke ʻoua naʻa mohe ʻakitautolu, ʻo hangē ko e niʻihi; ka tau leʻo pea tau fakapotopoto.
7 Qui enim dormiunt, nocte dormiunt: et qui ebrii sunt, nocte ebrii sunt.
He ko kinautolu ʻoku mohe, ʻoku mohe ʻi he pō; pea ko kinautolu ʻoku kona, ʻoku kona ʻi he pō.
8 Nos autem, qui diei sumus, sobrii simus, induti loricam fidei, et charitatis, et galeam spem salutis:
Ka ke fakapotopoto ʻakitautolu ʻoku ʻoe ʻaho, ʻo ʻai ki he fatafata ʻae sifa ko e tui mo e ʻofa; pea tau tatā ʻaki ʻae ʻamanaki lelei ki he fakamoʻui.
9 quoniam non posuit nos Deus in iram, sed in acquisitionem salutis per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum,
He naʻe ʻikai tuʻutuʻuni ʻakitautolu ʻe he ʻOtua ki he houhau, ka ke tau maʻu ʻae fakamoʻui ʻi hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
10 qui mortuus est pro nobis: ut sive vigilemus, sive dormiamus, simul cum illo vivamus.
ʻAia naʻe pekia koeʻuhi ko kitautolu, koeʻuhi, ka tau ka ʻā pe mohe, ke tau moʻui fakataha mo ia.
11 Propter quod consolamini invicem: et ædificate alterutrum, sicut et facitis.
Ko ia ke mou fefakafiemālieʻaki ʻakimoutolu, ʻo felangaʻaki hake ʻakimoutolu, ʻo hangē foki ko ia ʻoku mou fai.
12 Rogamus autem vos fratres ut noveritis eos, qui laborant inter vos, et præsunt vobis in Domino, et monent vos,
Pea ʻoku mau kole kiate kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, ke mou ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻoku ngaue ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ʻoku nau puleʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻEiki, pea valokiʻi ʻakimoutolu;
13 ut habeatis illos abundantius in charitate propter opus illorum: pacem habete cum eis.
Pea ke mou tokanga lahi ʻaupito kiate kinautolu ʻi he ʻofa koeʻuhi ko ʻenau ngaue. Pea ke mou nonofo feʻofoʻofani pe.
14 Rogamus autem vos fratres, corripite inquietos, consolamini pusillanimes, suscipite infirmos, patientes estote ad omnes.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku mau enginaki kiate kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, valokiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakamaveuveu, fakafiemālie ki he kau loto foʻi, poupou ʻae vaivai, ke mou faʻa kātakiʻi kotoa pē.
15 Videte ne quis malum pro malo alicui reddat: sed semper quod bonum est sectamini in invicem, et in omnes.
Vakai ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha taha ʻoku totongi ʻae kovi ʻaki ʻae kovi ki ha taha; ka mou tulituli maʻuaipē ki he meʻa ʻoku lelei, ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ki he kakai kotoa pē.
16 Semper gaudete.
Fiefia maʻuaipē.
17 Sine intermissione orate.
Lotu taʻetuku.
18 In omnibus gratias agite: hæc est enim voluntas Dei in Christo Iesu in omnibus vobis.
Fakafetaʻi ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē: he ko e finangalo ia ʻoe ʻOtua ʻia Kalaisi Sisu kiate kimoutolu.
19 Spiritum nolite extinguere.
ʻOua naʻa fuifui ʻae Laumālie.
20 Prophetias nolite spernere.
ʻOua naʻa taʻetokanga ki he ngaahi malanga.
21 Omnia autem probate: quod bonum est tenete.
ʻAhiʻahiʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē puke ke maʻu ʻaia ʻoku lelei.
22 Ab omni specie mala abstinete vos:
Taʻofi ʻakimoutolu mei he matamata kovi kotoa pē.
23 Ipse autem Deus pacis sanctificet vos per omnia: ut integer spiritus vester, et anima, et corpus sine querela in adventu Domini nostri Iesu Christi servetur.
Pea ʻofa ke fakamāʻoniʻoni haohaoa ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ʻOtua ʻoe melino: pea ʻofa ke fakatolonga taʻehalaia ʻakimoutolu ʻa homou laumālie kotoa, mo homou loto, mo homou sino, ʻo aʻu ki he hāʻele mai ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
24 Fidelis est, qui vocavit vos: qui etiam faciet.
ʻOku moʻoni ʻaia ʻoku ne uiuiʻi ʻakimoutolu; pea te ne mafai foki ia.
25 Fratres orate pro nobis.
E kāinga, hūfia ʻakimautolu.
26 Salutate fratres omnes in osculo sancto.
ʻOfa atu ki he kāinga kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae ʻuma māʻoniʻoni.
27 Adiuro vos per Dominum ut legatur epistola hæc omnibus sanctis fratribus.
ʻOku ou fekau fakapapau kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻEiki, ke lau atu ʻae tohi ni ki he kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē.
28 Gratia Domini nostri Iesu Christi vobiscum. Amen.
Ke ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻaloʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi. ʻEmeni.
