Mahi 4
1 A, i a raua e korero ana ki te iwi, ka puta ohorere mai ki a raua nga tohunga, te rangatira o te temepara me nga Haruki,
Pea ʻi heʻena kei lea ki he kakai, naʻe feʻohofi kiate kinaua ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mo e pule ʻoe falelotu lahi, pea mo e kau Sātusi,
2 He nui te pawera mo ta raua ako i te iwi, mo te kauwhau hoki i runga i a Ihu i te aranga mai i te hunga mate.
He kuo nau kina ʻi heʻena ako ki he kakai, mo ʻena malangaʻaki ʻae toetuʻu ʻa Sisu mei he mate.
3 Na ka mau o ratou ringa ki a raua, meinga ana kia tiakina kia ao ra ano te ra, i te mea hoki kua ahiahi.
Pea naʻa nau puke ʻakinaua, ʻo tuku ki he fale fakapōpula, kaeʻoua ke ʻaho: he kuo efiafi.
4 Otira he tokomaha o te hunga i rongo i te kupu i whakapono, a ko te tokomaha o nga tangata me te mea e rima mano.
Ka naʻe tui ʻae tokolahi ʻiate kinautolu naʻe fanongo ki he folofola; pea ko hono lau ʻoe kakai ko e toko nima afe nai.
5 Na i te aonga ake ka huihui o ratou rangatira, nga kaumatua, me nga karaipi ki Hiruharama,
Pea pehē, kuo pongipongi hake, naʻe kātoa ki Selūsalema honau kau pule, mo e mātuʻa, mo e kau tangata tohi,
6 Ratou ko te tino tohunga, ko Anaha, ko Kaiapa, ko Hoani, ko Arehanara, me nga whanaunga katoa o te tohunga nui.
Mo ʻAnasi ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, mo Kaiafasi, mo Sione, mo ʻAlekisānita, pea mo e kāinga kotoa pē ʻoe taulaʻeiki lahi.
7 A, no ka whakaturia raua ki waenganui, ka ui ratou, Tena koa te mana, te ingoa ranei, i meatia ai tenei e korua?
Pea kuo ʻomi ʻakinaua ki honau ʻao, naʻa nau fehuʻi, ʻo [pehē], “Ko e mālohi fē, mo e hingoa ʻo hai, kuo mo fai ai ʻae meʻa ni?”
8 Katahi a Pita, ki tonu i te Wairua Tapu, ka mea ki a ratou, E nga rangatira o te iwi, e nga kaumatua, o Iharaira.
Pea kuo fonu ʻa Pita ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻAkimoutolu, ko e kau pule ʻoe kakai, mo e mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli,
9 Mehemea ki te uiuia maua aianei mo te mahi pai i mahia ki te tangata haua, i peheatia taua tangata i ora ai;
Kapau ʻoku ʻekea ʻakimaua he ʻaho ni ki he ngāue lelei ki he tangata pipiki, pe ko e hā ʻae meʻa naʻe fakamoʻui ai ia;
10 Kia mohio koutou katoa, me te iwi katoa o Iharaira, na te ingoa o Ihu Karaiti o Nahareta, i ripekatia na e koutou, i whakaarahia ra e te Atua i te hunga mate, nana tenei i tu ora ai i to koutou aroaro.
Ke ʻilo ʻekimoutolu kotoa pē, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e huafa ʻo Sisu Kalaisi ʻo Nāsaleti, ʻaia ne mou tutuki ki he ʻakau, ka kuo fokotuʻu ia ʻe he ʻOtua mei he mate, ko ia pe kuo tuʻu ai ʻae tangata ni ʻi homou ʻao kuo haohaoa.
11 Ko ia te kohatu i whakakahoretia na e koutou, e nga kaihanga, a kua meinga nei hei mo te kokonga.
‘Ko e maka eni naʻe liʻaki ʻekimoutolu ko e kau tufunga, ʻaia kuo hoko ko e fungani [maka ]tuliki.’
12 Kahore hoki he ora i tetahi atu: kahore hoki he ingoa ke atu i raro o te rangi kua homai ki nga tangata, e ora ai tatou.
Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha fakamoʻui ʻi ha taha kehe: he ʻoku ʻikai ke tuku mo ha hingoa ki he kakai ʻi lalo langi, ke tau moʻui ai.
13 Na ka kite ratou i te maia o Pita raua ko Hoani, a ka matau ki a raua ehara i te mea whakaako, engari he hunga kuware, ka miharo ratou; ka mohio hoki he hoa raua no Ihu.
Pea kuo nau mamata ki he taʻemāluʻia ʻa Pita mo Sione, mo nau ʻilo ko e ongo tangata meʻavale, pea taʻepoto, pea nau ofo; pea naʻa nau ʻilo kiate kinaua, naʻa na ʻia Sisu.
14 Ka kite hoki i te tangata i whakaorangia e tu tahi ana ratou, kahore rawa i taea tetahi kupu whakahe ma ratou.
Ka ʻi heʻenau vakai ki he tangata kuo fakamoʻui, ʻoku nau tutuʻu fakataha mo kinaua, pea ʻikai te nau faʻa lea ki ai.
15 Na ka tono ratou i a raua kia haere i waho o te runanga, a ka korerorero ki a ratou ano,
Pea hili ʻenau fekau ʻakinaua ke ʻalu [siʻi ] atu mei he fakamaauʻanga, naʻa nau alea ʻiate kinautolu,
16 Ka mea, Me aha e tatou enei tangata? ka kite katoa nei hoki te hunga e noho ana i Hiruharama, he merekara nui kua meinga nei, a e kore e ahei te whakakorekore e tatou.
ʻO nau pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa te tau fai ki he ongo tangata ni? He kuo fai moʻoni ʻekinaua ʻae mana lahi, pea ʻoku ʻilo ia ʻekinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ʻi Selūsalema; pea ʻoku ʻikai te tau faʻa fakaʻikai ki ai.
17 Otiia, kia kaua ai e horapa atu ki roto ki te iwi, kia kaha ta tatou whakawehi i a raua, kei korero ki tetahi tangata a muri nei i runga i tenei ingoa.
Ka koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa kei mafola ia ʻi he kakai, ke tau fakamanaʻi ʻakinaua ʻo lahi, ke ʻoua naʻa na toe lea ki ha tangata ʻi he hingoa ni.”
18 A karangatia ana raua e ratou, ka mea ki a raua, Kia kaua rawa e korero, kia kaua e whakaako, i runga i te ingoa o Ihu.
Pea naʻa nau ui ʻakinaua, ʻo fekau mālohi kiate kinaua, ke ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa na lea pe ako ʻi he hingoa ʻo Sisu.
19 Na ka whakahoki a Pita raua ko Hoani ki a ratou, ka mea, Whakaaroa e koutou, ka tika ranei ki te aroaro o te Atua ko koutou kia whakarangona, kaua te Atua?
Ka naʻe lea atu kiate kinautolu ʻa Pita mo Sione, ʻo pehē, “Mou fifili, pe ʻoku lelei ʻa fē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻa ʻema talangofua kiate kimoutolu, pē ki he ʻOtua.
20 E kore hoki e ahei kia kaua e korerotia e maua nga mea i kite ai, i rongo ai matou.
Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te ma faʻa taʻofi ʻema leaʻaki pe ʻae ngaahi meʻa kuo ma mamata mo fanongo ai.”
21 Heoi whakawehi ana ano ratou i a raua, a tukua ana kia haere, kihai hoki i kitea he mea e whiua ai raua, i wehi i te iwi: i whakakororia katoa nei nga tangata i te Atua mo taua mea i meatia;
Pea kuo nau toe fakamanaʻi, pea nau tukuange ʻakinaua, he naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ha meʻa ke tautea ai ʻakinaua, pea telia ʻae kakai: he naʻa nau fakamālō kotoa pē ki he ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa kuo fai.
22 No te mea kua neke atu i te wha tekau nga tau o te tangata i meinga nei ki a ia tenei merekara whakaora.
He kuo fāngofulu tupu ʻae taʻu ʻoe tangata, kuo fai ki ai ʻae mana fakamoʻui ni.
23 A ka oti raua te tuku, ka haere ki o raua hoa, a korerotia ana nga mea katoa i korero ai nga tohunga nui me nga kaumatua ki a raua.
Pea ʻi he tukuange ʻakinaua, naʻa na ō ki hona kāinga, ʻo fakahā kotoa pē ʻae lea ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e mātuʻa kiate kinaua.
24 A, i to ratou rongonga, ka karanga ake ratou ki te Atua, he kotahi te reo, ka mea, E te Ariki, nau nei i hanga te rangi me te whenua, te moana, me o reira mea katoa:
Pea kuo nau fanongo ki ai, pea nau hiki fakataha hake honau leʻo ki he ʻOtua, ʻonau pehē, “ʻE ʻEiki, ko e ʻOtua ʻa koe, naʻa ke ngaohi ʻae langi mo māmani, pea mo e tahi, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai;
25 Nau te kupu i korerotia e te Wairua Tapu, na te mangai o to matou matua, o tau pononga, o Rawiri, He aha ka nana ai nga Tauiwi, ka whakaaro horihori ai nga iwi?
ʻA koe naʻa ke pehē ʻi he ngutu ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita, ‘Ko e hā ʻoku lili ai ʻae Senitaile, pea mahalo meʻa vaʻinga ai ʻe he kakai?
26 I whakatika ake nga kingi o te whenua, i huihui ngatahi nga rangatira, ki te whawhai ki te Ariki raua ko tana Karaiti.
Naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, pea naʻe kātoa ʻae kau pule, ʻo angatuʻu ki he ʻEiki, pea mo hono Kalaisi.’
27 He pono nei hoki te huihuinga ki tenei pa o Herora, o Ponotia Pirato, o nga Tauiwi, ratou ko te iwi o Iharaira, ki tau Tama tapu, ki a Ihu i whakawahia nei e koe,
He ko e moʻoni naʻe fakataha ʻa Helota, mo Ponito Pailato, mo e Senitaile, mo e kakai ʻIsileli, ʻo fakatanga ki ho ʻAlo māʻoniʻoni ko Sisu, ʻaia naʻa ke fakanofo,
28 Ki te mea i ta tou ringa, i ta tou whakaaro i whakatakoto ai i mua kia meatia.
Ke fai ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe tomuʻa tuʻutuʻuni ʻe ho nima mo hoʻo poto ke fai.
29 Na, titiro iho, e te Ariki, aianei ki a ratou kupu whakawehi: tukua mai hoki ki au pononga kia tino maia te korero i tau kupu,
Pea ko eni, ʻe ʻEiki, ke ke tokanga ki heʻenau lea fakamana: pea ke tuku ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ke nau lea mālohi ʻaki hoʻo folofola,
30 Ko koe ia e totoro mai ana tou ringa ki te whakaora; kia meatia hoki te tohu, he mea whakamiharo i runga i te ingoa o tau Pononga tapu, o Ihu.
ʻI hoʻo mafao atu ho nima ke fakamoʻui; pea ke fai ʻae ngaahi mana mo e meʻa fakaofo ʻi he huafa ʻo ho ʻAlo māʻoniʻoni ko Sisu.”
31 I te mutunga o ta ratou inoi, ka ngaueue te wahi i mine ai ratou, a ki katoa ratou i te Wairua Tapu, na, maia noa atu ratou ki te korero i te kupu a te Atua.
Pea hili ʻenau lotu, naʻe ngalulululu ʻae potu naʻa nau fakataha ai; pea naʻe fakapito ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻonau lea mālohi ʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua.
32 Kotahi ano ngakau, kotahi ano wairua o te mano o te hunga whakapono: kihai ano tetahi o ratou i mea, mana ake tetahi o ana taonga; heoi he mea huihui a ratou mea katoa.
Pea naʻe loto mo laumālie taha pē ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe tui: pea naʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe ui ʻene meʻa naʻa ne maʻu ko e meʻa ʻaʻana; ka naʻa nau meʻa taha pē.
33 A nui atu te kaha i whakapuakina ai e nga apotoro te aranga o te Ariki, o Ihu; he nui ano te aroha noa i runga i a ratou katoa.
Pea naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻe he kau ʻAposetolo ʻaki ʻae mālohi lahi ʻae toetuʻu ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu: pea naʻe lahi ʻae ʻofa ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē.
34 Kahore hoki tetahi o ratou i hapa: ko te hunga hoki he kainga, he whare o ratou, hokona atu ana e ratou, a mauria ana mai nga utu o nga mea i hokona,
Pea naʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻiate kinautolu ʻe masiva: he ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe maʻu ʻae fonua pe ʻae fale, naʻe fakatau ia, pea naʻe ʻomi hono totongi ʻoe meʻa kuo fakatau,
35 Whakatakotoria ana ki nga waewae o nga apotoro: na ka tuwhaina ma ia tangata, ma ia tangata, he mea whakarite ki te mate o ia tangata.
ʻO tuku hifo ʻi he vaʻe ʻoe kau ʻaposetolo: pea naʻe tufaki ki he tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau masiva.
36 A ko Hohi i huaina e nga apotoro ko Panapa, ko te tikanga tenei ina whakamaoritia, ko te Tama a te whakamarietanga, he Riwaiti, ko Kaiperu tona kainga,
Pea ko Sose [ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo ]Livai, mei he fonua ko Saipalo, ʻaia naʻe fakahingoa ʻe he kau ʻAposetolo ko Pānepasa, (ʻaia, ko hono ʻuhinga, “Ko e foha ʻoe fiemālie,”)
37 He wahi whenua tona, na hokona atu ana, mauria ana nga moni, whakatakotoria ana ki nga waewae o nga apotoro.
Naʻe fakatau ʻe ia hono potu fonua, pea ʻomi hono paʻanga, ʻo tuku ki he vaʻe ʻoe kau ʻAposetolo.
