< Maʻake 5 >

1 Pea naʻa nau tuku mai ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe tahi, ki he fonua ʻoe kakai Kataline.
And they came to the other side of the sea, into the territory of the Gerasenes.
2 Pea kuo haʻu ia mei he vaka, pea fakafetaulaki leva kiate ia ʻae tangata mei he ngaahi faʻitoka, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie ʻuli,
And when he had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs.
3 Pea naʻe nofo pe ia ʻi he ngaahi faʻitoka; pea naʻe ʻikai ha tangata te ne faʻa haʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi ukamea fihifihi:
He lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him any more, not even with a chain.
4 He koeʻuhi kuo liunga lahi hono haʻi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ukamea fakamaʻu mo e ngaahi ukamea fihifihi, pea kuo ne motumotuhi ʻae ngaahi ukamea fihifihi, pea motumotu mo e ngaahi ukamea fakamaʻu: pea kuo ʻikai faʻa fakalalata ia ʻe ha taha.
For he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. No one had the strength to tame him.
5 Pea naʻe ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga ia mo e ngaahi faʻitoka maʻuaipē, ʻi he pō mo e ʻaho, ʻo ne tangi ai, mo ne tafatafaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi maka.
And always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.
6 Ka ʻi heʻene mamata mei he mamaʻo kia Sisu, naʻa ne lele ʻo hū kiate ia.
And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,
7 ‌ʻO tangi leʻo lahi, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e hā au kiate koe, Sisu, ko e ʻAlo ʻoe fungani ʻOtua māʻolunga? ʻOku ou hū tōtōaki kiate koe ʻi he ʻOtua, ke ʻoua naʻa ke fakamamahiʻi au.”
and crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me."
8 (He naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Haʻu kituʻa mei he tangata, ʻa koe ko e laumālie ʻuli.”)
For he had been saying to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit."
9 Pea ne fehuʻi kiate ia, “Ko hai ho hingoa?” Pea pehēange ʻe ia, “Ko Lisione hoku hingoa; he ʻoku mau tokolahi.”
And then he asked him, "What is your name?" And he replied, "My name is Legion, for we are many."
10 Pea ne kole fakamātoato kiate ia ke ʻoua naʻa ne kapusi ʻakinautolu mei he fonua.
And he pleaded with Jesus repeatedly not to send them away out of the region.
11 Pea naʻe ʻi ai, ʻo ofi ki he ngaahi moʻunga, ʻae fanga puaka lahi naʻe fafanga.
Now on the mountainside there was a great herd of pigs feeding.
12 Pea kole ʻe he kau laumālie kotoa pē kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Fekau ʻakimautolu ki he fanga puaka, koeʻuhi ke mau hū ki ai.”
And they begged him, saying, "Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them."
13 Pea tuku leva ʻe Sisu ke nau [fai ia]. Pea ʻalu atu ʻae kau laumālie ʻuli, ʻo hū ki he fanga puaka: pea feleleʻi ʻo ʻoho ʻae fanga puaka ʻi he potu tahifohifo ki tahi, (naʻa nau toko ua afe nai; ) pea melemo ʻi he tahi.
And he gave them permission. The unclean spirits came out and entered into the pigs; and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and they were drowned in the sea.
14 Pea feholaki ʻakinautolu naʻe tauhi ʻae fanga puaka, ʻo fakahā ki he kolo, pea mo e tukuʻuta. Pea naʻa nau ʻalu ange ke mamata ki he meʻa kuo fai.
And those who fed them fled, and told it in the city and in the country. And the people went to see what it was that had happened.
15 Pea nau haʻu kia Sisu, ʻo mamata kiate ia naʻe ulusino ai ʻae laumālie ʻuli, ʻo ne maʻu ʻae lisione, ʻoku nofo ia, kuo kofu, pea poto hono loto: pea nau manavahē
And they came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting, clothed and in his right mind, even him who had the legion; and they were afraid.
16 Pea ko kinautolu naʻe mamata [ki ai], naʻa nau fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae meʻa naʻe hoko kiate ia naʻe ulusino ai ʻae tēvolo, pea mo e meʻa ki he fanga puaka.
And those who saw it declared to them how it happened to him who was possessed by demons, and about the pigs.
17 Pea nau kole leva kiate ia ke ne ʻalu ʻi honau fonua.
And then they began to plead with Jesus to leave their region.
18 Pea kuo ʻalu ia ki vaka, pea ko ia naʻe ulusino ai ʻae tēvolo ne kole kiate ia ke na nonofo.
As he was entering into the boat, he who had been possessed by demons pleaded with him that he might be with him.
19 Ka naʻe ʻikai loto ki ai ʻa Sisu, ka naʻa ne pehē, “ʻAlu ki ho ʻapi ki ho kāinga, mo fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi kuo fai ʻe he ʻEiki maʻau, mo ʻene manavaʻofa kiate koe.”
However, Jesus did not allow him, but said to him, "Go to your house, to your own, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how he had mercy on you."
20 Pea ne ʻalu ia, ʻo fua fakahā ʻi Tikapolisi ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi kuo fai ʻe Sisu maʻana: pea ofo ai kotoa pē.
So he went his way, and began to proclaim in Decapolis how Jesus had done great things for him, and everyone was amazed.
21 Pea kuo toe folau ʻa Sisu ʻi he vaka ki he kauvai ʻe taha, pea kātoa ai kiate ia ʻae kakai tokolahi: pea kuo ofi ia ki tahi.
And when Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a large crowd was gathered to him; and he was by the sea.
22 Pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu ange ʻae tokotaha ʻoe kau pule ʻoe falelotu, ko Sailosi hono hingoa; pea ʻi heʻene mamata kiate ia, naʻa ne tō hifo ki hono vaʻe,
One of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, came; and seeing him, he fell at his feet,
23 ‌ʻO ne kole fakamātoato kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoku ʻofefine siʻi ʻoku tei mate: haʻu, ʻo hili ho nima kiate ia, koeʻuhi ke moʻui ai: pea ʻe moʻui ia.”
and pleaded with him repeatedly, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Please come and lay your hands on her, that she may be made healthy, and live."
24 Pea naʻa na ō mo [Sisu]; pea muimui kiate ia ʻae kakai tokolahi, ʻo fakaʻefihia ia.
And he went with him, and a large crowd followed him, and they pressed upon him on all sides.
25 Pea ko e fefine ʻe tokotaha, naʻe hongofulu ma ua ʻae taʻu ʻoe ʻau toto ʻiate ia,
Now a woman, who had an issue of blood for twelve years,
26 Pea kuo lahi ʻae meʻa kuo ne kātaki ʻi he kau faitoʻo tokolahi, pea kuo fakaʻosi ʻe ia ʻa ʻene meʻa kotoa pē, pea ʻikai fakaʻaʻau ki muʻa, kae ʻāsili pe hono mahaki.
and had suffered many things by many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better, but rather grew worse,
27 Kuo fanongo ia kia Sisu, pea haʻu mo e fononga mei mui, ʻo ala ki hono kofu:
having heard the things concerning Jesus, came up behind him in the crowd, and touched his clothes.
28 He kuo pehē ʻe ia, “Kapau teu ala pe ki hono kofu, te u moʻui ai.”
For she said, "If I just touch his clothes, I will be made well."
29 Pea matuʻu fakafokifā pe ʻae ʻau ʻa hono toto; pea ne ongoʻi ʻi hono sino kuo fakamoʻui ia mei he mahaki ko ia.
And immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
30 Pea kuo ʻilo loto ʻe Sisu kuo ʻalu atu ʻiate ia ʻae mālohi, pea ne tafoki ia ki he kakai, mo ne pehē, “Ko hai naʻe ala ki hoku kofu?”
And immediately Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd, and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"
31 Pea pehēange ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, “ʻOku ke vakai ki he tokolahi ʻoku fakaʻefi koe, pea ʻoku ke pehē, ‘Ko hai kuo ala kiate au?’”
And his disciples said to him, "You see the crowd pressing against you, and you say, 'Who touched me?'"
32 Pea vakai foli ʻe ia ke mamata kiate ia kuo ne fai ʻae meʻa ni.
He looked around to see her who had done this thing.
33 Ka kuo ʻilo ʻe he fefine ʻaia kuo fai kiate ia, pea haʻu ia, ʻoku manavahē mo tetetete, ʻo tō ki lalo ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo ne tala kiate ia ʻae moʻoni kotoa pē.
But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him the whole truth.
34 Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOfefine, kuo fakamoʻui koe ʻe hoʻo tui; ʻalu ʻi he fiemālie, pea ke moʻui mei hoʻo mahaki.”
And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be cured of your disease."
35 Kae lolotonga ʻene lea, mo e haʻu [ʻae niʻihi ]mei [he fale ]ʻoe pule ʻoe falelotu, ʻonau pehē, “Kuo pekia ho ʻofefine: ko e hā ʻoku ke kei fakafiu ai ʻae ʻEiki?”
While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler's house saying, "Your daughter is dead. Why bother the Teacher any more?"
36 Pea kuo fanongo leva ʻe Sisu ki he lea naʻe lea ʻaki, pea pehē ʻe ia ki he pule ʻoe falelotu, “ʻOua te ke manavahē, ka ke tui pe.”
But Jesus, overhearing the message spoken, said to the ruler of the synagogue, "Do not be afraid, only believe."
37 Pea naʻe ʻikai tuku ʻe ia ke muimui ha tokotaha kiate ia, ka ko Pita, mo Semisi, mo Sione ko e tokoua ʻo Semisi.
And he allowed no one to follow him, except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.
38 Pea hoko ia ki he fale ʻoe pule ʻoe falelotu, ʻo mamata ki he maveuveu, mo kinautolu naʻe tangi mo tangilāulau lahi.
And they came to the synagogue ruler's house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing.
39 Pea kuo hū ia ki loto [fale], mo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou maveuveu, mo tangi ai? ʻOku ʻikai mate ʻae taʻahine, ka ʻoku mohe [pe].”
And when he had entered in, he said to them, "Why do you make an uproar and weep? The child is not dead, but is asleep."
40 Ka naʻa nau kakata manuki kiate ia. Pea kuo fekau ʻe ia ke nau ʻalu kotoa pē kituʻa, pea ne ʻave ʻae tamai mo e faʻē ʻae taʻahine, mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia, pea nau hū ki he potu ʻoku tokoto ai ʻae taʻahine.
And they ridiculed him. But he, having put them all out, took the father of the child, her mother, and those who were with him, and went in where the child was.
41 Pea ne puke ʻae nima ʻoe taʻahine, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Talita kiumi;” ʻaia ko hono ʻuhinga, “Taʻahine, ʻoku ou pehē kiate koe, Tuʻu hake.”
And taking the child by the hand, he said to her, "Talitha koum," which translated means, "Little girl, I tell you, get up."
42 Pea tuʻu hake leva ʻae taʻahine, ʻo ʻeveʻeva; he kuo hongofulu ma ua hono taʻu. Pea naʻe ofo ai ʻakinautolu ʻi he ofo lahi.
And immediately the girl rose up and walked, for she was twelve years old. And immediately they were overcome with amazement.
43 Pea ne fekau mālohi kiate kinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa ʻilo ia ʻe ha taha; mo ne fekau ke ʻatu ha meʻakai kiate ia.
And he strictly ordered them that no one should know this, and commanded that something should be given to her to eat.
