< Kau ʻAposetolo 26 >
1 Pea toki pehē ʻe ʻAkilipa kia Paula, “ʻOku tuku kiate koe ke ke fakamatala maʻau.” Pea toki mafao atu ʻe Paula ʻa hono nima, ʻo ne fakamatala maʻana, [ʻo pehē],
2 “ʻE tuʻi ko ʻAkilipa, ʻoku ou pehē ʻoku ou monūʻia, ʻi heʻeku fakamatala maʻaku ʻi ho ʻao ʻi he ʻaho ni, ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku talatalaakiʻi ai au ʻe he kakai Siu:
3 Pea ʻāsili pē koeʻuhi ʻoku ke poto ʻi he ngaahi ngāue mo e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻeke ʻi he kakai Siu: ko ia ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke kātaki pē, ʻo fanongo kiate au.
4 “ʻOku ʻilo ʻe he kakai Siu kotoa pē ʻae anga ʻo ʻeku moʻui talu ʻeku kei siʻi, ʻi heʻeku nofo talu mei muʻa mo hoku kakai ʻi Selūsalema;
5 ʻAkinautolu naʻa nau ʻilo au mei he kamataʻanga, ʻokapau te nau fakamoʻoni koeʻuhi naʻaku moʻui ko e Fālesi, ʻo fakatatau ki he faʻahinga ʻoku tokanga lahi taha pe ki heʻetau lotu.
6 Pea ʻoku ou tuʻu ni, pea ʻoku fakamaauʻi au, ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻamanaki ki he talaʻofa naʻe fai ʻe he ʻOtua ki he ngaahi tamai:
7 ʻAia foki ʻoku ʻamanaki ke lavaʻi ʻe hotau faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu ma ua, ʻi heʻenau lotu maʻu ʻi he pō mo e ʻaho. Pea koeʻuhi ko e ʻamanaki pe ko ia, ʻe tuʻi ko ʻAkilipa, kuo talatalaakiʻi au ʻe he kakai Siu.
8 Ka ko e hā ʻoku mou pehē ai, ko e meʻa e ʻikai te mou faʻa tui ki ai, ʻae fokotuʻu ʻae mate ʻe he ʻOtua?
9 “Ko e moʻoni naʻaku mahalo ʻeau ʻi hoku loto, ʻoku totonu ʻeku fai kehe mo e huafa ʻo Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi.
10 Pea ne u fai foki ia ʻi Selūsalema pea ko e tokolahi ʻoe kakai māʻoniʻoni ne u fakahū ki he fale fakapōpula, ʻi heʻeku maʻu ʻae mālohi mei he kau taulaʻeiki lahi; pea naʻaku kau ki honau tāmateʻi.
11 Pea ne u tautea ʻakinautolu ʻo liunga lahi ʻi he falelotu kotoa pē, ʻo fakamālohiʻi ke nau lea kovi, pea naʻaku loto lili fakamanavahē kiate kinautolu, pea [ne u ʻalu ]ki he kolo kehekehe ʻo fakatangaʻi.
12 “Pea ʻi heʻeku ʻalu ki Tamasikusi, kuo u maʻu ʻae mālohi mo e tohi mei he kau taulaʻeiki lahi,
13 Ne u mamata, ʻe tuʻi, ʻi he hala ʻi he hoʻatāmālie, ki he maama mei he langi, naʻe malama lahi ia ʻi he laʻā, pea naʻe ulo takatakai ia ʻiate au mo kinautolu naʻa mau fononga.
14 “Pea kuo mau tō kotoa pē ki he kelekele, pea u fanongo ki he leʻo, ʻoku pehē mai kiate au, ʻi he lea fakaHepelū, ‘ʻE Saula, ʻe Saula, ko e hā ʻoku ke fakatanga ai au? ʻOku faingataʻa hoʻo ʻakahi ʻae meʻa māsila.’
15 Pea ne u pehē, ‘ʻEiki, ko hai koe?’ Pea pehē mai ʻe ia, ‘Ko au Sisu ʻoku ke fakatangaʻi.
16 Ka ke tuʻu hake ʻi ho vaʻe: he kuo u hā atu kiate koe koeʻuhi ke u fakanofo koe koe faifekau mo e fakamoʻoni ʻoe ngaahi meʻa kuo ke mamata ai, mo e ngaahi meʻa foki te u fakahā kiate koe;
17 Pea te u fakamoʻui koe mei he kakai mo e ngaahi Senitaile, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ou fekau koe ki ai ni,
18 Ke fakaʻā honau mata, mo fakatafoki ʻakinautolu mei he poʻuli ki he maama, pea mei he mālohi ʻo Sētane ki he ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke nau maʻu ʻae fakamolemole ʻoe angahala, mo e tofiʻa fakataha mo kinautolu kuo fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻi he tui kiate au.
19 Pea talu ai, ʻe tuʻi ko ʻAlikipa, naʻe ʻikai te u talangataʻa ki he meʻa naʻe hā mai mei he langi:
20 Ka ne u fuofua fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻi Tamasikusi, pea ʻi Selūsalema, mo e ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻi Siutea, pea ki he ngaahi Senitaile, ke nau fakatomala pea tafoki ki he ʻOtua, mo fai ʻae ngāue ʻoku taau mo e fakatomala.
21 Pea koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe puke au ʻe he kakai Siu ʻi he falelotu lahi, ʻonau fai ke tāmateʻi au.
22 Ka ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku maʻu ʻae tokoni mei he ʻOtua, ko ia ʻoku ou kei fai ai ʻo hoko ki he ʻaho ni, ʻo fakamoʻoni ki he iiki mo e lalahi, ʻo ʻikai ha meʻa kehe ka ko ia ʻe he kau palōfita mo Mōsese ʻe hoko mai:
23 Koeʻuhi ʻe mamahi ʻa Kalaisi, pea ko e ʻuluaki ia ʻi he toetuʻu mei he mate, pea ʻe fakahā ʻe ia ʻae maama ki he kakai, mo e ngaahi Senitaile.
24 Pe fakamatala pehē pe ʻe ia, mo e kalanga mai ʻa Fesito, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Paula, kuo ke faha; kuo fakafaha koe ʻe he poto lahi.”
25 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻE ʻeiki ko Fesito, ʻoku ʻikai te u faha; ka ʻoku ou fakahā atu ʻae lea ʻoe moʻoni mo e poto.
26 He ʻoku ʻiloʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻe he tuʻi, ʻoku ou fakamatala ni ʻi hono ʻao: he ʻoku ou ʻilo pau ʻoku ʻikai lilo kiate ia ha meʻa ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni; he naʻe ʻikai fai ʻae meʻa ni ʻi ha tuliki.
27 ʻE tuʻi ko ʻAkilipa, ʻoku ke tui ki he kau palōfita? ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻoku ke tui.”
28 Pea pehē ʻe ʻAkilipa kia Paula, Kuo ke meimei fakahehemaʻi au ke u hoko ko e Kalisitiane.
29 Pea pehē ʻe Paula, “ʻAmusiaange ʻeau ki he ʻOtua, kuo ʻikai ko koe pe, ka ko kinautolu kotoa pē foki ʻoku fanongo kiate au ʻi he ʻaho ni, kuo mou meimei tatau, mo mātuʻaki tatau pē mo au, ka ko e ngaahi haʻi ni pe.”
30 Pea kuo pehē ʻene lea, pea tuʻu hake ʻae tuʻi, mo e pule, mo Pelenaisi, mo kinautolu naʻa nau nonofo:
31 Pea kuo nau afe siʻi mei ai, pea nau alea, ʻo pehē, “Kuo ʻikai fai ʻe he tangata ni ha meʻa ʻoku ngali mo e mate, pe ko e haʻisia.”
32 Pea toki pehē ʻe ʻAkilipa kia Fesito, “Ka ne taʻeʻoua ʻene pehē ke fakamaau ia ʻia Sisa, pehē, kuo lelei ke tukuange ʻae tangata ni.”
