Petri I 2
1 Deponentes igitur omnem malitiam, et omnem dolum, et simulationes, et invidias, et omnes detractiones,
Ko ia ke liʻaki ʻae fai kovi kotoa pē, mo e kākā kotoa pē, mo e mālualoi, mo e meheka, pea mo e feleakoviʻaki kotoa pē,
2 sicut modo geniti infantes, rationabile, sine dolo lac concupiscite: ut in eo crescatis in salutem:
Pea mou holi lahi, ʻo hangē ko e fānau toki fāʻeleʻi, ki he huʻahuhu taʻekākā ʻoe folofola, koeʻuhi ke mou tupu ai:
3 si tamen gustastis quoniam dulcis est Dominus.
He kuo mou kamata ʻoku ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻEiki.
4 Ad quem accedentes lapidem vivum, ab hominibus quidem reprobatum, a Deo autem electum, et honorificatum:
ʻAia ʻoku mou haʻu ki ai, ko e maka moʻui, kuo siʻaki moʻoni ʻe he kakai, ka kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua, pea ʻoku mahuʻinga,
5 et ipsi tamquam lapides vivi superædificamini, domus spiritualis, sacerdotium sanctum, offerre spirituales hostias, acceptabiles Deo per Jesum Christum.
Ko kimoutolu foki, ʻoku hangē ko e ngaahi maka moʻui kuo langa hake, ko e fale fakalaumālie, ko e kau taulaʻeiki māʻoniʻoni, ke ʻohake ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakalaumālie, ʻoku ʻaonga ki he ʻOtua ʻia Sisu Kalaisi.
6 Propter quod continet Scriptura: Ecce pono in Sion lapidem summum angularem, electum, pretiosum: et qui crediderit in eum, non confundetur.
Ko ia ʻoku tuʻu ai foki ia ʻi he tohi, “Vakai, ʻoku ou ʻai ʻi Saione ʻae fungani maka tuliki, kuo fili, pea mahuʻinga: pea ko ia ʻe tui kiate ia, ʻe ʻikai mā ia.”
7 Vobis igitur honor credentibus: non credentibus autem lapis, quem reprobaverunt ædificantes: hic factus est in caput anguli,
Ko ia, ʻoku mahuʻinga ia kiate kimoutolu ʻoku tui: ka kiate kinautolu ʻoku taʻetui, “ko e maka naʻe liʻaki ʻe he kau tufunga, ko ia ia kuo ngaohi ko e fungani [maka ]ʻoe tuliki,
8 et lapis offensionis, et petra scandali, his qui offendunt verbo, nec credunt in quo et positi sunt.
Pea ko e maka tūkiaʻanga mo e maka fakaʻita kiate kinautolu ʻoku taʻetui ki he folofola, pea tūkia: ʻaia foki naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻakinautolu ki ai.”
9 Vos autem genus electum, regale sacerdotium, gens sancta, populus acquisitionis: ut virtutes annuntietis ejus qui de tenebris vos vocavit in admirabile lumen suum.
Ka ko e kakai kuo fili ʻakimoutolu, ko e kau taulaʻeiki fakaʻeiʻeiki, ko e kakai māʻoniʻoni, ko e kakai kuo fakatau; koeʻuhi ke mou fakahā ʻae ʻulungāanga lelei ʻo ia naʻa ne ui mai ʻakimoutolu mei he poʻuli ki heʻene maama lahi:
10 Qui aliquando non populus, nunc autem populus Dei: qui non consecuti misericordiam, nunc autem misericordiam consecuti.
ʻAkimoutolu naʻe ʻikai ko ha kakai ʻi muʻa, ka ko eni ko e kakai ʻae ʻOtua: naʻe ʻikai ke ʻilo ʻae ʻaloʻofa, ka ko eni kuo ʻilo ʻae ʻaloʻofa.
11 Carissimi, obsecro vos tamquam advenas et peregrinos abstinere vos a carnalibus desideriis, quæ militant adversus animam,
ʻOku ou kole atu, ʻe kāinga ʻofeina, ke mou hangē ko e kau muli mo e ʻāunofo, ke taʻofi ʻakimoutolu mei he ngaahi holi fakakakano, ʻaia ʻoku tauʻi ʻae laumālie;
12 conversationem vestram inter gentes habentes bonam: ut in eo quod detrectant de vobis tamquam de malefactoribus, ex bonis operibus vos considerantes, glorificent Deum in die visitationis.
Pea fai ke lelei hoʻomou moʻui ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai Senitaile: koeʻuhi, ʻi ha meʻa ʻoku nau lauʻikovi ai ʻakimoutolu ʻo hangē ko e kau fai kovi, ke nau mamata ki hoʻomou ngaahi ngāue lelei, pea fakamālō ai ki he ʻOtua ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ʻaʻahi.
13 Subjecti igitur estote omni humanæ creaturæ propter Deum: sive regi quasi præcellenti:
Fakavaivai ʻakimoutolu ki he tuʻutuʻuni kotoa pē ʻae tangata koeʻuhi ko e ʻEiki: pe ki he tuʻi, ʻaia ʻoku lahi taha pe;
14 sive ducibus tamquam ab eo missis ad vindictam malefactorum, laudem vero bonorum:
Pe ki he kau pule, ʻakinautolu kuo ne fakanofo koeʻuhi ke tautea ʻae kau fai kovi, ka ke fakamālō kiate kinautolu ʻoku fai lelei.
15 quia sic est voluntas Dei, ut benefacientes obmutescere faciatis imprudentium hominum ignorantiam:
He ʻoku pehē ʻae finangalo ʻoe ʻOtua, ke mou fakanoaʻi ʻaki ʻae fai lelei ʻae faʻa launoa ʻae kakai vale:
16 quasi liberi, et non quasi velamen habentes malitiæ libertatem, sed sicut servi Dei.
ʻO taau mo e tauʻatāina, kaeʻoua naʻa maʻu ʻae tauʻatāina ke hangē ko e ʻufiʻufi ʻoe angahala, ka mou hangē ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae ʻOtua.
17 Omnes honorate: fraternitatem diligite: Deum timete: regem honorificate.
Fakaʻapaʻapa ki he kakai kotoa pē. ʻOfa ki he kāinga lotu. Manavahē ki he ʻOtua. Fakaʻapaʻapa ki he tuʻi.
18 Servi, subditi estote in omni timore dominis, non tantum bonis et modestis, sed etiam dyscolis.
ʻAe kau tamaioʻeiki, mou fakavaivai ki hoʻomou ngaahi ʻeiki ʻi he manavahē
19 Hæc est enim gratia, si propter Dei conscientiam sustinet quis tristitias, patiens injuste.
He ko e meʻa ʻaonga eni, ʻo kapau ʻe kātaki ʻe ha taha ʻae mamahi mo e tautea taʻetotonu, ko ʻene loto [lelei ]ki he ʻOtua.
20 Quæ enim est gloria, si peccantes, et colaphizati suffertis? sed si bene facientes patienter sustinetis, hæc est gratia apud Deum.
He ko e hā hono lelei, ʻoka tautea ʻakimoutolu ʻi hoʻomou fai kovi, pea ʻoku mou faʻa kātaki ia? Ka ʻoka mou ka mamahiʻia ʻi hoʻomou fai lelei, pea faʻa kātaki, ʻoku lelei ia ki he ʻOtua.
21 In hoc enim vocati estis: quia et Christus passus est pro nobis, vobis relinquens exemplum ut sequamini vestigia ejus:
He ko e meʻa ia kuo uiuiʻi ʻakimoutolu ki ai: he naʻe mamahi ʻa Kalaisi maʻamoutolu, pea kuo ne tuku mai ha faʻifaʻitakiʻanga kiate kimoutolu, ke mou topuvaʻe taha mo ia:
22 qui peccatum non fecit, nec inventus est dolus in ore ejus:
ʻAia naʻe ʻikai ke ne fai ha angahala, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ha kākā ʻi hono fofonga.
23 qui cum malediceretur, non maledicebat: cum pateretur, non comminabatur: tradebat autem judicanti se injuste:
ʻAia naʻe ʻikai ke toe manuki ʻi hono manukia ia; ʻi heʻene mamahi, naʻe ʻikai te ne fakamana; ka naʻa ne tuku ia kiate ia ʻoku fakamaau māʻoniʻoni:
24 qui peccata nostra ipse pertulit in corpore suo super lignum; ut peccatis mortui, justitiæ vivamus: cujus livore sanati estis.
ʻAia naʻa ne fua tokotaha pe ʻi hono sino ʻoʻona ʻetau ngaahi hia ki he ʻakau, koeʻuhi ʻi he ʻetau tauʻatāina mei he angahala, ke tau moʻui ki he māʻoniʻoni: pea ko e meʻa ʻi hono ngaahi ta kuo ko mou moʻui.
25 Eratis enim sicut oves errantes, sed conversi estis nunc ad pastorem, et episcopum animarum vestrarum.
He naʻa mou tatau mo e fanga sipi ʻalu hēhē pe; ka kuo mou foki mai eni ki he Tauhi mo e Leʻohi ʻo homou laumālie.
