1 Pea kuo nau ofi ki Selūsalema, [ʻo hoko ]ki Petefesi, mo Pētani, ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOlive, pea ne fekau atu ʻene ākonga ʻe toko ua,
And when they drew near to Jerusalem, as far as Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
2 ‌ʻO ne pehē kiate kinaua, “Mo ō ki he potu kakai ʻoku hangatonu mai: pea ka mo ka hū ki ai, te mo ʻilo leva ʻae ʻuhiki [ʻoe ʻasi ]kuo noʻotaki, ʻoku teʻeki heka ai ha tangata; vevete ia, mo taki mai.
and said to them: Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied, on which no man ever sat. Loose him and bring him.
3 Pea ka pehē ʻe ha taha kiate kimoua, ‘Ko e hā ʻoku mo fai ai eni?’ Mo pehēange, ‘ʻOku ʻaonga ia ki he ʻEiki;’ pea te ne tuku leva ke ʻomi ia ki heni.”
And if any say to you: Why are you doing this? say that the Lord has need of him; and he will immediately send him hither.
4 Pea naʻa na ō, ʻo na ʻilo ʻae ʻuhiki [ʻoe ʻasi ]ʻoku noʻotaki ʻituʻa ʻi he matapā, ʻi he potu ʻoe tefitoʻi hala; pea na vevete ia.
And they went and found the colt tied near the door without, in the street. And they loosed him.
5 Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi naʻe tuʻu ʻi ai kiate kinaua, “Ko e hā ʻamoua ʻoku mo vete ai ʻae ʻuhiki ʻoe ʻasi?”
And some of those who were standing there, said to them: Why are you loosing the colt?
6 Pea naʻa na lea kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Sisu: pea naʻe tuku ʻakinaua ke na ō.
And they said to them as Jesus had commanded; and they gave them permission.
7 Pea naʻa na ʻomi ʻae ʻuhiki kia Sisu, pea na ʻai ki ai hona ngaahi kofu; pea heka ia ki ai.
And they brought the colt to Jesus, and put their mantles upon him, and he sat on him.
8 Pea folahi ʻe he tokolahi honau ngaahi kofu ʻi he hala; pea tutuʻu hifo ʻe he niʻihi ʻae ʻuluʻuluʻi ʻakau, ʻo falikiliki ʻaki ʻae hala.
And many spread their mantles in the road, and others cut branches from the trees, and spread them in the road.
9 Pea ko kinautolu naʻe muʻomuʻa, mo kinautolu naʻe muimui, naʻa nau kalanga, ʻo pehē, “Hosana; ‘ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻoku haʻu ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova!
And those who went before, and those who followed after, cried, saying: Hosanna. Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord.
10 Ke monūʻia ʻae puleʻanga ʻo ʻetau tamai ko Tevita, ʻaia ʻoku haʻu ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova: Hosana ʻi he fungani māʻolunga.”
Blessed is the coming kingdom of our Father David. Hosanna in the highest.
11 Pea hoko ʻa Sisu ki Selūsalema, pea [hū ]ki he falelotu lahi: pea kuo vakai foli ʻe ia ʻae meʻa kotoa pē [ʻi ai, ]pea kuo hokosia ʻae efiafi, naʻa nau ō ki Pētani mo e toko hongofulu ma toko ua.
And Jesus entered Jerusalem, and went into the temple; and when he had looked around on all things, the hour being now late, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
12 Pea pongipongi ai, ʻi heʻenau haʻu mei Pētani, naʻe fiekaia ia:
And on the morrow, as they were coming from Bethany, he was hungry;
13 Pea sio mamaʻo atu ia ki he ʻakau ko e fiki ʻoku lau, pea ʻalu ia, ʻo kumi pe te ne ʻilo ai ha [fua ]pe ʻikai: pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki ai, naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ha meʻa ka ko e lau pe; he naʻe kei tuai ʻae toʻukai fiki.
and he saw at a distance a fig-tree that had leaves; and he went, if perhaps he might find any thing on it. And when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for it was not the time for figs.
14 Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange ki ai, “Ngata ʻi heni ke ʻoua naʻa toe kai ʻeha taha ha fua ʻiate koe ʻo lauikuonga.” Pea fanongo ki ai ʻene kau ākonga. (aiōn g165)
And he answered and said to it: No more may any one ever eat fruit from you. And his disciples heard it. (aiōn g165)
15 Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki Selūsalema: pea hū ʻa Sisu ki he falelotu lahi, ʻo ne kamata kapusi kituʻa ʻakinautolu naʻe fefakatauʻaki ʻi he falelotu lahi, mo ne fulihi ʻae ngaahi palepale ʻoe kau fetongi paʻanga, mo e ngaahi nofoʻa ʻonautolu naʻe fakatau lupe;
And they came into Jerusalem; and Jesus entered the temple, and began to drive out those who sold, and those who bought in the temple; and he overturned the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of those who sold doves.
16 Pea naʻe ʻikai tuku ʻe ia ke ʻalu ha taha mo [ʻene ]kavenga ʻi he falelotu lahi.
And he suffered no one to carry a vessel through the temple.
17 Pea ako ia, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai kuo tohi, ‘Ko hoku fale ʻe ui ko e falelotu ki he kakai kotoa pē?’ Ka kuo mou ngaohi ia ko e ʻana ʻoe kau kaihaʻa.”
And he taught, saying to them: Is it not written, My house shall be called the house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it a den of robbers.
18 Pea fanongo ki ai ʻae kau tangata tohi mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi, pea nau fifili pe fēfeeʻi ʻenau tāmateʻi ia: he naʻa nau manavahē kiate ia, koeʻuhi kuo ofo ʻae kakai fulipē ʻi heʻene akonaki.
And the scribes and the chief priests heard him; and they sought how they might destroy him; for they feared him, because all the multitude were astonished at his teaching.
19 Pea kuo hokosia ʻae efiafi, ne ʻalu ia mei he kolo.
And when evening had come, he went out of the city.
20 Pea pongipongi ai, ʻi heʻenau liu mai, ne nau vakai ki he ʻakau ko e fiki kuo mate mei hono aka.
And in the morning, as they were passing by, they saw the fig-tree withered from the roots.
21 Pea fakamanatu ʻe Pita, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, vakai, ko e fiki naʻa ke tukitalaʻi kuo mate ia.”
And Peter, calling his words to mind, said to him: Rabbi, see! the fig-tree which thou didst curse has withered.
22 Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Mou maʻu ʻae tui ki he ʻOtua.
And Jesus answered and said to them: Have faith in God.
23 He ʻoku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ia te ne pehē ki he moʻunga ni, Hiki koe, pea lī koe ki he tahi; pea ʻikai fakataʻetaʻetui hono loto, ka ʻoku ne tui ʻe hoko ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ne lea ʻaki, ʻe hoko ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ne lea ki ai.
For, verily I say to you, that whoever will say to this mountain, Be removed, and be cast into the sea, and will not doubt in his heart, but believe that what he says will come to pass, he shall have whatever he says.
24 Ko ia ʻoku ou pehē ai kiate kimoutolu, Ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku mou holi ki ai, ʻoka mou ka lotu, tui ʻoku mou maʻu [ia], pea te mou maʻu.
For this reason I say to you: All things that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive them, and they shall be yours.
25 Pea ʻoka mou ka tuʻu ʻo lotu, fakamolemole, ʻo kapau ʻoku mou koviʻia ʻi ha taha; koeʻuhi ke fakamolemolea ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi hoʻomou ngaahi hia.
And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have any thing against any one, that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your offenses.
26 Pea ka ʻikai te mou fakamolemole, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamolemolea ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.”
But if you do not forgive, your Father who is in heaven will not forgive your offenses.
27 Pea naʻa nau toe haʻu ki Selūsalema: pea ʻi heʻene hāʻele ʻi he falelotu lahi, naʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau tangata tohi, mo e mātuʻa,
And they came again into Jerusalem; and as he was walking in the temple, there came to him the chief priests and the scribes and the elders,
28 ‌ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Ko e pule fē ʻoku ke fai ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni? Pea ko hai ia naʻa ne tuku kiate koe ʻae pule ke fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni?”
and said to him: By what authority do you these things? and who gave you this authority to do these things?
29 Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Te u fehuʻi kiate kimoutolu foki ki he meʻa ʻe taha, pea mou tala mai kiate au, pea teu tala atu ai kiate kimoutolu ʻae pule ko ia ʻoku ou fai ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni.
And Jesus answered and said to them: I also will ask you one thing, and if you answer me, I will also tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 Ko e papitaiso ʻa Sione, naʻe mei he langi ia? Pe mei he tangata? Tala mai.”
Was the immersion of John from heaven, or from men? answer me.
31 Pea naʻe fealēleaʻaki ʻakinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Kapau te tau pehē, ‘Mei he langi;’ pea ʻe pehē mai ʻe ia, ‘Ko e hā naʻe ʻikai ai te mou tui kiate ia?’
And they reasoned with themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven, he will reply, Why, then, did you not believe him?
32 Ka tau ka pehē, ‘Mei he tangata;’” ʻoku tau manavahē ki he kakai: he ʻoku nau pehē kotoa pē, ko e palōfita moʻoni ʻa Sione.
But if we say, From men, they feared the people; for all regarded John as a prophet indeed.
33 Pea ne nau lea, ʻo pehēange kia Sisu, “ʻOku ʻikai te mau ʻilo.” Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Pea ʻe ʻikai te u tala atu kiate kimoutolu ʻae pule ko ia ʻoku ou fai ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni.”
And they answered and said to Jesus: We do not know. And Jesus answering, said to them: Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
