Sione 10
1 “Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai hū ʻi he matapā ki he lotoʻā sipi, ka ʻoku kaka hake ʻi he hala kehe, ko e kaihaʻa ia mo e fakamālohi.
Verily, verily, I say unto you: —He that entereth not, through the door, into the fold of the sheep, but goeth up from another place, that man, is, a thief, and, a robber.
2 Ka ko ia ʻoku hū ʻi he matapā, ko e tauhi ia ʻoe fanga sipi.
But, he that entereth through the door, is, shepherd, of the sheep:
3 ʻOku toʻo kiate ia ʻe he leʻo; pea fanongo ki hono leʻo ʻae fanga sipi pea ʻoku ne ui ʻae sipi ʻaʻana ʻi [honau hingoa ]ʻo ne tataki atu ʻakinautolu.
To him, the porter openeth, and, the sheep, unto his voice, hearken: and, his own sheep, he calleth by name, and leadeth them forth.
4 Pea ka tuku atu ʻe ia ʻene sipi ʻaʻana ʻoku ʻalu muʻomuʻa ia ʻiate kinautolu, pea muimui ʻae sipi ʻiate ia: he ʻoku nau ʻilo hono leʻo.”
As soon as, all his own, he hath put forth, before them, he moveth on, and, the sheep, follow him, because they know his voice;
5 Pea ʻe ʻikai te nau muimui ʻi ha foʻou, ka te nau hola meiate ia: he ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae leʻo ʻoe foʻou.
But, a stranger, will they in nowise follow, but will flee from him, because they know not the voice, of strangers.
6 Naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Sisu ʻae fakatātā ni kiate kinautolu: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene lea kiate kinautolu.
This similitude, spake Jesus unto them; but, those men, understood not what the things were which he was speaking unto them.
7 Pea toe tala ai ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Ko au ko e matapā ki he fanga sipi.
Jesus, therefore, said, again—Verily, verily, I say unto you: —I, am the door of the sheep:
8 Ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate au, ko e kau kaihaʻa mo e fakamālohi: ka naʻe ʻikai fanongo ʻae fanga sipi kiate kinautolu.
All, as many as came before me, are thieves, and, robbers: but the sheep hearkened nor unto them.
9 Ko au pe ko e matapā: pea ko ia ʻe hū ange ʻiate au, ʻe moʻui ia, pea ʻe feʻaluʻaki ai pe ia, ʻo maʻu ʻae meʻakai.
I, am the door: through me, if anyone enter, he shall be saved, and shall come in and go out, and, pasture, shall find.
10 ʻOku ʻikai haʻu ʻae kaihaʻa, ka ke kaihaʻasi, pea ke tāmateʻi, pea ke fakaʻauha: kuo u haʻu au ke nau maʻu ʻae moʻui, pea ke nau maʻu ia ʻo lahi ʻaupito.
The thief, cometh not, save that he may thieve and slay and destroy: I, came, that, life, they might have, and, above measure, might have.
11 “Ko au ko e tauhi lelei: ʻoku foaki ʻe he tauhi lelei ʻa ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko e fanga sipi.
I, am the good shepherd: The good shepherd, his life, layeth down, for the sheep.
12 Ka ko ia ʻoku unga ki he ngāue, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e tauhi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻana ʻae fanga sipi, ʻoku mamata ia ʻoku haʻu ʻae ulofi, pea siʻaki ʻae fanga sipi, kae hola: pea moʻua ia ʻe he ulofi, ʻo fakahēʻi ʻae fanga sipi.
The hireling, even because he is no shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, vieweth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, —and, the wolf, seizeth them and scattereth, —
13 ʻOku hola ʻae unga ngāue, koeʻuhi ko e unga ngāue [pe ]ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻofa ia ki he fanga sipi.
Because, a hireling, he is, and hath no care for the sheep.
14 Ko au ko e tauhi lelei; pea hangē ʻoku ʻilo au ʻe he Tamai, peau ʻilo foki ʻae Tamai,
I, am the good shepherd, and know my own, and, my own, know me, —
15 [ʻOku pehē ]ʻa ʻeku ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻaku, mo e ʻilo au ʻekinautolu: pea ʻoku ou tuku hifo ʻeku moʻui koeʻuhi ko e fanga sipi.
Just as, the Father, knoweth me, and, I, know, the Father; and, my life, I lay down for the sheep.
16 Pea ʻoku ai mo ʻeku fanga sipi kehe, ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he lotoʻā ko eni: te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu foki, pea te nau fanongo ki hoku leʻo; pea ʻe ai ʻae lotoʻā pe taha, mo e tauhi pe taha.”
And, other sheep, have I, which are not of this fold: those also, I must needs bring, and, unto my voice, will they hearken, and there shall come to be, One flock, One shepherd.
17 Ko ia ʻoku ʻofa ai ʻa ʻeku Tamai kiate au, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku tuku hifo ʻeku moʻui, kau toe toʻo ia.
Therefore, doth the Father, love, me, because, I, lay down my life, that, again, I may receive it: —
18 ʻOku ʻikai ke toʻo ia ʻe ha taha ʻiate au, ka ʻoku ou tuku hifo ia ʻeau pe. ʻOku ou mafai ke tuku hifo ia, pea ʻoku ou mafai ke toe toʻo ia. Ko e fekau ni kuo u maʻu mei heʻeku Tamai.”
No one, forced it from me, but, I, lay it down, of myself, —Authority, have I, to lay it down, and, authority, have I, again, to receive it: This commandment, received I, from my Father.
19 Pea naʻe toe fakakikihi ʻae kakai Siu, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi lea ni.
A division, again, took place among the Jews, because of these words.
20 Pea pehē ʻe honau tokolahi, “ʻOku ʻiate ia ha tēvolo, pea ʻoku faha; ko e hā ʻoku mou fanongo ai kiate ia?”
But many from among them were saying—A demon, he hath, and is raving, —Why, unto him, do ye hearken?
21 Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “ʻOku ʻikai ko e lea eni ʻa ha taha ʻoku ʻi ai ha tēvolo. ʻE mafai ʻe ha tēvolo ke fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻoe kui?”
Others, said—These sayings, are not those of one demonized, —Can, a demon, open the eyes of, the blind?
22 Pea naʻe fai ʻi Selūsalema ʻae kātoanga ʻoe fakafoʻou, pea ko e faʻahitaʻu momoko.
The feast of dedication took place at that time, in Jerusalem: it was, winter,
23 Pea naʻe ʻeveʻeva ʻa Sisu ʻi he falelotu lahi, ʻi he fale hala ʻo Solomone.
and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon.
24 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai Siu, ʻo kāpui ia, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻo taʻefakaʻilo kiate kimautolu? Kapau ko e Kalaisi koe, tala totonu mai kiate kimautolu.”
The Jews, therefore, surrounded him, and were saying unto him—How long, holdest thou, our lives, in suspense? If, thou, art the Christ, tell us, plainly.
25 Pea leaange ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Naʻaku tala kiate kimoutolu, ka naʻe ʻikai te mou tui: ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻoku ou fai ʻi he huafa ʻo ʻeku Tamai, ʻoku fakamoʻoniʻi ai au.”
Jesus answered them—I told you, and ye believe not: The works which, I, am doing in the name of my Father, the same, bear witness concerning me.
26 Ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou tui, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ʻi heʻeku fanga sipi ʻakimoutolu.
But, ye, believe not, because ye are not of my sheep.
27 ʻOku fanongo ʻeku fanga sipi ki hoku leʻo, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku tala kiate kimoutolu: pea ʻoku ou ʻiloa ʻakinautolu, pea ʻoku nau muimui ʻiate au:
My sheep, unto my voice, hearken, —and, I, know, them, and they follow me, —
29 Ko ʻeku Tamai, ʻaia naʻa ne foaki mai kiate au, ʻoku lahi taha pe ia; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku faʻa hamusi mei he nima ʻo ʻeku Tamai.
What, my Father, hath given me, is, something greater than all, and, no one, can carry off out of the hand of my Father: —
30 Ko au mo e Tamai ʻoku ma taha pe.
I and the Father, are, one.
31 Pea toe toʻo hake ʻe he kakai Siu ʻae maka, ke nau tolongaki ʻaki ia.
The Jews again lifted up stones, that they might stone him.
32 Pea leaange ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Kuo lahi ʻae ngāue lelei kuo u fakahā kiate kimoutolu mei heʻeku Tamai; ko e ngāue fē ia ʻoku mou tolongakiʻi ai au?
Jesus answered them—Many works, have I showed you, noble ones, from my Father: For which of those works are ye stoning me?
33 Pea talaange ʻe he kau Siu kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ko ha ngāue lelei ʻoku mau tolongakiʻi ai koe; ka ko e fie ʻOtua pe; koeʻuhi ko e tangata pe ʻa koe, ka ʻoku ke fai ke ʻOtua.”
The Jews answered him—Concerning a noble work, are we not stoning thee; but concerning profane speech, —and because, thou, being, a man, art making thyself, God.
34 Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai kuo tohi ʻi hoʻomou fono, Ne u pehē, ‘Ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻakimoutolu?’
Jesus answered them—Is it not written in your law: I, said, Ye are, gods?
35 Kapau ʻoku ui ko e ʻotua ʻakinautolu naʻe folofola ki ai ʻae ʻOtua, pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa liʻaki ʻae tohi;
If, those, he called gods, unto whom, the word of God, came—and the Scripture cannot be broken—
36 ʻOku mou pehē kiate ia kuo fakatapui ʻe he Tamai, ʻo fekau ki māmani, ʻOku ke fie ʻOtua; koeʻuhi naʻaku pehē, Ko e ʻAlo au ʻoe ʻOtua?
Of him whom, the Father, hallowed and sent forth into the world, are, ye, saying—Thou speakest profanely, because I said, Son of God, I am?
37 Kapau ʻoku ʻikai te u fai ʻae ngāue ʻo ʻeku Tamai, ʻoua te mou tui kiate au.
If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe in me;
38 Ka ʻi heʻeku fai ia, kapau ʻoku ʻikai te mou tui kiate au, tui ki he ngāue: koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo, mo tui, ʻoku ʻiate au ʻae Tamai, mo au ʻiate ia.”
But, if I am doing them, even though, in me, ye believe not, in the works, believe, —that ye may get to know and go on to know, that the Father is, in me, and, I, am, in the Father.
39 Ko ia naʻa nau toe fie puke ai ia: ka naʻa ne fakahaofi ia mei honau nima,
They were [therefore] again seeking to take him; and he went forth out of their hand.
40 ʻO toe ʻalu ki he potu ʻituʻa Sioatani, ʻaia naʻe tomuʻa fai papitaiso ai ʻa Sione; pea nofo ai ia.
And he went away again, beyond the Jordan, unto the place where John was at the first, immersing; and he abode there.
41 Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae tokolahi kiate ia, ʻonau pehē, “Naʻe ʻikai fai ʻe Sione ha mana: ka ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe lea ki ai ʻa Sione ki he tangata ni, ʻoku moʻoni.”
And, many, came unto him, and were saying—John, indeed, did not so much as, one sign; but, all things, whatsoever John said concerning this one, were, true.
42 Pea naʻe tui ʻae tokolahi ʻi ai kiate ia.
And, many, believed on him there.
