Maʻake 11
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 are drawing near unto Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, towards the Mount of Olives, he sendeth forth 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 saith unto them—Go your way into the village that is over against you, and, straightway, as ye are entering it, ye shall find a colt tied, upon which, no, man, yet, hath 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 anyone unto you should say—Why are ye doing this? say—The Lord, of him hath need; and, straightway, he sendeth him off again here.
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 departed, and found a colt, tied unto a door outside, on the street, —and they are loosing 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, certain of them that were there standing, were saying unto them—What are ye doing, 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 unto them as, Jesus, said, —and they let them go.
7 Pea naʻa na ʻomi ʻae ʻuhiki kia Sisu, pea na ʻai ki ai hona ngaahi kofu; pea heka ia ki ai.
And they bring the colt unto Jesus, and throw upon him their mantles, —and he took his seat upon 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 out, their mantles, along the way, and, others, young branches, —cutting them out of the fields.
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, they who were going before, and they who were following after, were crying aloud—Hosanna! Blessed, is he that is coming 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 he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple, and, looking round on all things, late already being the hour, he went out into Bethany, with the twelve.
12 Pea pongipongi ai, ʻi heʻenau haʻu mei Pētani, naʻe fiekaia ia:
And, on the morrow, when they came forth from Bethany, he hungered;
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, seeing a fig-tree from afar, having leaves, he came… if, therefore, he should find aught in it, and, coming up to it, nothing, found he, save, leaves; for it was not, the season, of 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, answering, he said unto it—No more, unto times age-abiding, let anyone of thee, eat fruit. And his disciples were listening. (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 come into Jerusalem. And, entering into the temple, he began to be casting out them who were selling and them who were buying in the temple, and, the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them who were selling doves, he overthrew, —
16 Pea naʻe ʻikai tuku ʻe ia ke ʻalu ha taha mo [ʻene ]kavenga ʻi he falelotu lahi.
and was not suffering that anyone should 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 was teaching, and saying—Is it not written, My house, a house of prayer, shall be called, for all the nations? but, ye, 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 High-priests and the Scribes, heard, it, and began seeking how they might, destroy, him, —for they were fearing him; for, all the multitude, were being struck with astonishment at his teaching.
19 Pea kuo hokosia ʻae efiafi, ne ʻalu ia mei he kolo.
And, as soon as it became late, they were going forth outside 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, passing by early, they saw the fig-tree, withered from its roots;
21 Pea fakamanatu ʻe Pita, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, vakai, ko e fiki naʻa ke tukitalaʻi kuo mate ia.”
and, put in mind, Peter saith unto him—Rabbi! see! the fig-tree which thou didst curse, is withered.
22 Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Mou maʻu ʻae tui ki he ʻOtua.
And, answering, Jesus saith unto 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.
Verily, I say unto you—Whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be lifted up, and cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart but shall believe that, what he speaketh, cometh to pass, it shall be his.
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 cause, I say unto you—All things, whatsoever ye are praying for and asking, believe that ye have received, 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 ye stand praying, forgive, if aught ye have against any, —that, your Father also, who is in the heavens, may forgive you your offences.
26 Pea ka ʻikai te mou fakamolemole, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamolemolea ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langi hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.”
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 come again into Jerusalem. And, as he is walking in the temple, the High-priests and the Scribes and the Elders come unto him,
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 were saying unto him—By what authority, these things, art thou doing? And who to thee hath given this authority that, these things, thou shouldst be doing?
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.
But, Jesus, said unto them—I will question you, as to one matter, and answer me, —and I will tell you, by what authority, these things, I am doing:
30 Ko e papitaiso ʻa Sione, naʻe mei he langi ia? Pe mei he tangata? Tala mai.”
The immersion by John, Of heaven, was it, or, of 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 were deliberating among themselves, saying—If we say, Of heaven, he will say, Wherefore [then] did ye 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, should we say, Of men…, they were in fear of the multitude, for, one and all, were holding John, in very deed, that he was, a prophet.
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, making answer unto Jesus, they say—We know not; and Jesus saith unto them—Neither do, I, tell you, by what authority, these things, I am doing.
