< Kau ʻAposetolo 14 >
1 Pea naʻe pehē ʻi ʻIkoniume, naʻa na ō fakataha ki he falelotu ʻoe kakai Siu, pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻena lea, naʻe tui ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ʻi he Siu mo e Senitaile.
And it came to pass in Iconium, that they did enter together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spake, so that there believed both of Jews and Greeks a great multitude;
2 Ka ko e kau Siu taʻetui, naʻa nau ueʻi kovi ʻae kakai Senitaile, ʻo fakakoviʻi honau loto ki he kāinga.
and the unbelieving Jews did stir up and made evil the souls of the nations against the brethren;
3 Ka naʻe nofo fuoloa ai ʻakinaua, ʻo na lea mālohi ʻi he ʻEiki, pea naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻe ia ki he folofola ʻo ʻene ʻaloʻofa, ʻo ne tuku ke fai ʻe hona nima ʻae ngaahi mana mo e meʻa fakaofo.
long time, indeed, therefore, did they abide speaking boldly in the Lord, who is testifying to the word of His grace, and granting signs and wonders to come to pass through their hands.
4 Ka naʻe vaeua ʻae kakai ʻoe kolo: naʻe kau ʻae niʻihi ki he kakai Siu, ka ko e niʻihi ki he ongo ʻaposetolo.
And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews, and some with the apostles,
5 Pea fai ke feʻohofi ʻae Senitaile, mo e Siu mo honau ngaahi pule, ke ngaohikoviʻi mo tolongaki ʻaki ʻae maka ʻakinaua.
and when there was a purpose both of the nations and of the Jews with their rulers to use [them] despitefully, and to stone them,
6 Pea naʻa na ʻilo ki ai, pea na hola ki Lisita mo Teape, ko e ongo kolo ʻo Likonia, pea ki he ngaahi potu naʻe vāofi:
they having become aware, did flee to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and to the region round about,
7 Pea naʻa na malangaʻaki ai ʻae ongoongolelei.
and there they were proclaiming good news.
8 Pea naʻe nofo ʻi Lisita ʻae tangata ʻe taha, naʻe veʻe mate, ko e pipiki ia mei he manāva ʻo ʻene faʻē, kuo teʻeki ʻaupito ke ʻeveʻeva:
And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in the feet, was sitting, being lame from the womb of his mother — who never had walked,
9 Pea naʻe fanongo ia ki he lea ʻa Paula: ʻaia naʻe sio fakamamaʻu kiate ia, pea ne ʻilo kuo maʻu ʻe ia ʻae tui ke moʻui ai,
this one was hearing Paul speaking, who, having stedfastly beheld him, and having seen that he hath faith to be saved,
10 Pea ne leaʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, “Tuʻu totonu hake ʻi ho vaʻe.” Pea naʻe hopohopo ia, ʻo ʻeveʻeva.
said with a loud voice, 'Stand up on thy feet upright;' and he was springing and walking,
11 Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kakai ki he meʻa kuo fai ʻe Paula, naʻa nau kalanga, ʻi he lea fakaLikonia, ʻo pehē, “Kuo maliu hifo ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kiate kitautolu ʻi he anga ʻoe tangata.”
and the multitudes having seen what Paul did, did lift up their voice, in the speech of Lycaonia, saying, 'The gods, having become like men, did come down unto us;'
12 Pea naʻa nau ui ʻa Pānepasa, ko Supita; kae [ui ]ʻa Paula, ko Mekulio, koeʻuhi ko ia ia naʻe faʻa malanga.
they were calling also Barnabas Zeus, and Paul Hermes, since he was the leader in speaking.
13 Pea ko e taulaʻeiki ʻo Supita, ʻaia naʻe ʻi honau veʻe kolo, ne ʻomi ʻe ia ki he matapā ʻae fanga pulu, mo e tuinga kakala, pea nau tokanga mo e kakai ke feilaulau.
And the priest of the Zeus that is before their city, oxen and garlands unto the porches having brought, with the multitudes did wish to sacrifice,
14 Ka ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻae ongo ʻaposetolo, ko Pānepasa mo Paula, naʻa na haehae hona kofu, pea na feleleʻi ki he kakai, mo na kalanga,
and having heard, the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having rent their garments, did spring into the multitude, crying
15 ʻo pehē, “ʻAe kau tangata, ko e hā ʻoku mou fai ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni? Ko e ongo tangata pe ʻakimaua ʻo hangē ko kimoutolu, pea ʻoku ma malanga kiate kimoutolu ke mou tafoki mei he ngaahi vaʻinga ni ki he ʻOtua moʻui, ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae langi, mo māmani, mo e tahi, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai:
and saying, 'Men, why these things do ye? and we are men like-affected with you, proclaiming good news to you, from these vanities to turn unto the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all the things in them;
16 ʻAia naʻa ne tuku ke ʻeveʻeva ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻi honau ngaahi hala, ʻi he ngaahi kuonga kuo hili ange.
who in the past generations did suffer all the nations to go on in their ways,
17 Ka naʻe ʻikai ke ne tuku ia taʻehaʻanefakamoʻoni, he naʻe fai lelei mai ʻe ia, ʻo tuku kiate kitautolu ʻae ʻuha mei he langi, mo e ngaahi taʻu mahu, ʻo ne fakapito ʻaki ʻakitautolu ʻae meʻakai mo e fiefia.”
though, indeed, without witness He did not leave himself, doing good — from heaven giving rains to us, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness;'
18 Pea naʻe ʻikai te na meimei faʻa taʻofi ʻae kakai, ʻaki ʻae lea ni, ke ʻoua te nau feilaulau kiate kinaua.
and these things saying, scarcely did they restrain the multitudes from sacrificing to them.
19 Pea naʻe haʻu ki ai ʻae tuʻunga Siu mei ʻAniteoke mo ʻIkoniume, ʻonau fakalotokoviʻi ʻae kakai, pea hili ʻenau tolongaki ʻa Paula ʻaki ʻae maka, naʻe toho ia ki he tuʻa kolo, ʻonau mahalo kuo mate ia.
And there came thither, from Antioch and Iconium, Jews, and they having persuaded the multitudes, and having stoned Paul, drew him outside of the city, having supposed him to be dead;
20 Kae lolotonga ʻae tuʻu takatakai ʻae kau ākonga ʻiate ia, naʻe tuʻu hake ia, ʻo ʻalu ki he kolo: pea ko e ʻaho naʻa na feholoi, naʻa na ō ai mo Pānepasa ki Teape.
and the disciples having surrounded him, having risen he entered into the city, and on the morrow he went forth with Barnabas to Derbe.
21 Pea kuo na malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ʻi he kolo ko ia, mo na fakalotuʻi ʻae tokolahi, pea na liu mai ki Lisita, mo ʻIkoniume, mo ʻAniteoke,
Having proclaimed good news also to that city, and having discipled many, they turned back to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,
22 ʻO na tokoniʻi ʻae loto ʻoe kau ākonga, pea akonaki ke nau tuʻumaʻu ʻi he tui, “Koeʻuhi kuo tonu ke tau hū ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he mamahi lahi.”
confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting to remain in the faith, and that through many tribulations it behoveth us to enter into the reign of God,
23 Pea kuo na fakanofo ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻi he siasi kotoa pē ʻo fai ʻae lotu mo e ʻaukai, naʻa nau tuku ʻakinautolu ki he ʻEiki, ʻaia kuo nau tui ki ai.
and having appointed to them by vote elders in every assembly, having prayed with fastings, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.
24 Pea kuo ʻosi ʻa Pisitia, ʻi heʻena ʻalu, pea na hoko ki Pamifilia.
And having passed through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia,
25 Pea hili ʻena malangaʻaki ʻae folofola ʻi Peaka, pea na ō hifo ki ʻAtaleia.
and having spoken in Perga the word, they went down to Attalia,
26 Pea folau mei ai ki ʻAniteoke, ʻaia naʻe tomuʻa tuku atu ʻakinaua mei ai ki he ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ko e ngāue kuo na fakaʻosi.
and thence did sail to Antioch, whence they had been given by the grace of God for the work that they fulfilled;
27 Pea kuo na hoko ange, ʻo fakakātoa ʻae siasi, pea na fakamatala ʻaia kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻiate kinaua, mo ʻene fakaava ʻae matapā ʻoe tui ki he ngaahi Senitaile.
and having come and gathered together the assembly, they declared as many things as God did with them, and that He did open to the nations a door of faith;
28 Pea naʻa nau nonofo ai mo e kau ākonga ʻo fuoloa.
and they abode there not a little time with the disciples.
