1 Ko e kamataʻanga ʻoe ongoongolelei ʻa Sisu Kalaisi, ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua;
The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua Meshikha, the Son of God.
2 ‌ʻO hangē ko ia ʻoku tohi ʻi he kau palōfita, “Vakai, ʻoku ou fekau atu hoku fakamelomelo ke muʻomuʻa ʻi ho ʻao, ʻaia te ne teuteu ho hala kiate koe.
As it is written in Eshaya the prophet, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.
3 Ko e leʻo ʻoe tokotaha ʻoku kalanga ʻi he toafa, ‘Mou teuteu ʻae hala ʻoe ʻEiki, fakatonutonu hono ngaahi ʻaluʻanga.’”
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.'"
4 Naʻe papitaiso ʻe Sione ʻi he toafa, mo ne malangaʻaki ʻae papitaiso ʻoe fakatomala ki he fakamolemole ʻoe angahala.
Yukhanan came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
5 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu kiate ia ʻae fonua kotoa pē ko Siutea, pea mo kinautolu ʻo Selūsalema, ʻonau papitaiso kotoa pē ʻiate ia ʻi he vaitafe ko Sioatani, ʻo vete ʻenau ngaahi angahala.
And all the country of Yehuda went out to him and all those from Urishlim, and they were baptized by him in the Yurdinan river, confessing their sins.
6 Pea naʻe kofuʻaki ʻa Sione ʻae fulufuluʻi kāmeli, pea nonoʻo ʻaki hono konga loto ʻae kiliʻi manu; pea naʻa ne kai ʻae heʻe mo e meʻa huʻamelie ʻoe vao;
And Yukhanan was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
7 Pea naʻa ne malanga, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku muimui ʻiate au ʻae tokotaha ʻoku lahi kiate au, ko e nonoʻo ʻoe topuvaʻe ʻoʻona ʻoku ʻikai taau mo au ke u punou hifo ʻo vevete.
And he preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 Ko e moʻoni, kuo u papitaiso ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae vai: ka te ne papitaiso ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.”
I baptized you in water, but he will baptize you in the Rukha d'Qudsha."
9 Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, naʻe haʻu ʻa Sisu mei Nāsaleti ʻo Kaleli, pea papitaiso ia ʻe Sione ʻi Sioatani.
And it happened in those days, that Yeshua came from Natsrath of Galila, and was baptized by Yukhanan in the Yurdinan.
10 Pea ʻalu hake leva ia mei he vai, pea ne mamata kuo mavaeua ʻae langi, pea maliu hifo ʻae Laumālie kiate ia, ʻo hangē ko e lupe:
And immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Rukha descending on him like a dove.
11 Pea ongo mai ʻae leʻo mei he langi, [naʻe pehē], “Ko hoku ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga koe, ʻaia ʻoku ou fiemālie lahi ai.”
And a voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased."
12 Pea taki leva ia ʻe he Laumālie ki he toafa.
And immediately the Rukha drove him out into the wilderness.
13 Pea naʻe ʻi he toafa ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻe Sētane; pea naʻe ʻi ai mo ia ʻae fanga manu kai vao; kae tauhi ia ʻe he kau ʻāngelo.
And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satana. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
14 Pea kuo fakahū ʻa Sione ki he fale fakapōpula, pea haʻu ʻa Sisu ki Kaleli, ʻo malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ʻoe puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua,
Now after Yukhanan was taken into custody, Yeshua came into Galila, proclaiming the Good News of God,
15 ‌ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo hokosia ʻae kuonga, pea ʻoku ofi ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua: mou fakatomala, pea tui ki he ongoongolelei.”
and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is near. Repent, and believe in the Good News."
16 Pea ʻi heʻene hāʻele ʻi he matātahi ʻo Kaleli, naʻa ne mamata kia Saimone, mo ʻAnitelū ko hono tokoua, ʻoku na lafo ʻae kupenga ki tahi: he ko e ongo toutai ika ʻakinaua.
And passing along by the lake of Galila, he saw Shimon and Andreus the brother of Shimon casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
17 Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinaua, “Mo muimui mai ʻiate au, pea te u ngaohi ʻakimoua ke mo toutai tangata.”
And Yeshua said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you into fishers of people."
18 Pea naʻa na liʻaki leva, hona kupenga, ʻo muimui ʻiate ia.
And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.
19 Pea ʻalu siʻi atu ia, mo ne mamata kia Semisi ko e [foha ]ʻo Sepeti, mo Sione ko hono tokoua, naʻa na ʻi he vaka foki, ʻo pena honau kupenga.
And going on a little further, he saw Yaquv the son of Zabedai, and Yukhanan, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 Pea ne ui leva ʻakinaua: pea naʻa na liʻaki ʻena tamai ko Sepeti ʻi he vaka mo e kau ngāue kuo unga, ka na muimui ʻiate ia.
And immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zabedai, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Pea nau ō ki Kapaneume: pea hū leva ia ki he falelotu ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, ʻo ne ako.
And they went into Kepharnakhum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 Pea nau ofo ʻi heʻene akonaki: he naʻa ne akonakiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo taau mo ia ʻoku mālohi, ka naʻe ʻikai hangē ko e kau tangata tohi.
And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Pea naʻe ʻi honau falelotu ʻae tangata naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie ʻuli: pea kalanga leva ia,
And just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he shouted,
24 ‌ʻo pehē, “E Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti, tuku ai pe; ko e hā ʻakimautolu kiate koe? Kuo ke haʻu ke fakaʻauha ʻakimautolu? ʻOku ou ʻilo koe, ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻoe ʻOtua.”
saying, "What do we have to do with you, Yeshua, Natsraya? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."
25 Pea lolomi ia ʻe Sisu, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke fakalongo pē, pea ke haʻu kituʻa ʻiate ia.”
And Yeshua rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."
26 Pea kuo haehae ia ʻe he laumālie ʻuli, mo tangi ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, pea ne toki mahuʻi ʻiate ia.
And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Pea naʻe ofo ai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ko ia ne nau fakafefehuʻiʻaki ai ʻiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ko eni? Ko e hā ʻae akonaki foʻou ni? He ʻoku fekau ʻe ia ʻi he mālohi ki he kau laumālie ʻuli, pea ʻoku nau talangofua kiate ia.”
And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."
28 Pea naʻe mafola leva ʻa hono ongoongo ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻo Kaleli.
And at once the news of him went out everywhere into all the region of Galila and its surrounding area.
29 Pea kuo nau ʻalu mei he falelotu, naʻa nau hū, fakataha mo Semisi mo Sione, ki he fale ʻo Saimone mo ʻAnitelū.
And immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Shimon and Andreus, with Yaquv and Yukhanan.
30 Ka naʻe tokoto ʻae faʻē ʻae uaifi ʻo Saimone ʻoku mahaki ko e mofi; pea nau fakahā leva ia kiate ia.
Now Shimon's mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31 Pea haʻu ia ʻo puke hono nima, ʻo ne fokotuʻu ia: pea mahuʻi leva ʻae mofi ʻiate ia, ʻo ne tauhi ʻakinautolu.
And he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
32 Pea kuo efiafi, ʻo feʻunga mo e tō ʻae laʻā, mo ʻenau ʻomi kiate ia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe mahaki, mo kinautolu naʻe ulusino ai ʻae kau tēvolo.
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
33 Pea fakataha ʻae kolo kotoa pē ki he matapā.
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 Pea fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻae tokolahi naʻe mahaki ʻi he mahaki kehekehe, mo ne kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo tokolahi: pea ne taʻofi ke ʻoua ʻe lea ʻae kau tēvolo, koeʻuhi kuo nau ʻilo ia.
And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 Pea pongipongi ai, naʻa ne tuʻu hake ʻoku teʻeki ʻaho, pea ʻalu ia kituaʻā ʻo mole atu ki he potu lala, pea lotu ai.
And early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
36 Pea muimui ʻiate ia ʻa Saimone, mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia.
And Shimon and those who were with him followed after him;
37 Pea kuo ʻilo ia, pea nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku kumi kotoa pē kiate koe.”
and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."
38 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ke tau ō ki he ngaahi potu kakai ʻoku ofi mai, koeʻuhi ke u malanga ai foki: he ko ia naʻaku haʻu ai.”
And he said to them, "Let us go somewhere else into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason."
39 Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻo malanga ʻe ia ʻi honau ngaahi falelotu ʻi Kāleli kotoa pē, mo ne kapusi ʻae kau tēvolo.
And he went into their synagogues throughout all Galila, preaching and casting out demons.
40 Pea naʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae kilia, naʻe kole kiate ia, ʻo tuʻulutui kiate ia, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kapau ko ho finangalo ʻoku ke faʻa fakamaʻa au.”
And a leper came to him, begging him, and knelt down and said to him, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."
41 Pea ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sisu, ʻo mafao atu hono nima, ʻo ala kiate ia, pea ne pehē ki ai, “Ko hoku loto ia; ke ke maʻa koe.”
And being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing. Be cleansed."
42 Pea kuo lea ia, mo ʻene mahuʻi leva ʻae kilia ʻiate ia, pea maʻa ai ia.
And immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
43 Pea ne naʻinaʻi mālohi kiate ia, pea toki fekau ke ne ʻalu:
And he strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
44 ‌ʻo ne pehē ki ai, “Vakai ʻoua naʻa ke lea ki ha taha: ka ke ʻalu, ʻo fakahā Ko e ki he taulaʻeiki, mo ʻatu ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese koeʻuhi ko hoʻo fakamaʻa, ko e fakamoʻoni kiate kinautolu.”
and said to him, "See you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Mushe commanded, for a testimony to them."
45 Ka naʻe ʻalu atu ia, ʻo ne kamata fakahā ʻo lahi, mo fanongonongo ʻae meʻa [ni], ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai ke toe faʻa ʻalu fakahā [ʻa Sisu ]ʻi he kolo, ka naʻe ʻi tuaʻā ia ʻi he ngaahi potu lala: pea naʻa nau haʻu mei he potu kotoa pē kiate ia.
But he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread about the matter, so that Yeshua could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
