Te Evaselio ʼa Luka

20 ʼI te tahi ʼaho, ʼi tana lolotoga faiakonaki pea mo tala te logo lelei ki te hahaʼi ʼi te fale lotu, neʼe olo age te kau pelepitelo pule, mo te kau sekelipa pea mo te kau takitaki Sutea. 2 Neʼe natou ui age: “Tala mai pe ko ai ʼae neʼe ina fakagafua atu ke ke fai te ʼu meʼa ʼaeni.”+ 3 Neʼe ina tali age: “ ʼE au toe fai atu mo au he fehuʼi pea kotou tali mai: 4 Neʼe haʼu koa te papitema ʼae neʼe fai e Soane mai selo peʼe mai te tagata?” 5 Pea neʼe natou feuiʼaki: “Kapau ʼe tou ui ‘Mai selo,’ pea ʼe ina fehuʼi mai anai ‘He koʼe neʼe mole kotou tui ki ai?’ 6 Kae kapau ʼe tou ui ‘Mai te tagata’ pea ʼe tuki makaʼi anai tatou e te hahaʼi fuli, koteʼuhi ʼe natou tui ko Soane neʼe ko he polofeta.”+ 7 Koia, neʼe natou tali ai ʼe mole natou iloʼi pe ʼe haʼu maifea. 8 Neʼe ui leva e Sesu kia natou: “Mo au la, ʼe mole au fakaha atu anai pe ko ai ʼae neʼe ina fakagafua mai ke au fai te ʼu meʼa ʼaeni.”

9 Neʼe ina fai leva te lea fakatata ʼaeni ki te hahaʼi: “Neʼe to e he tagata he gaueʼaga vite+ pea neʼe ina tuku age ki he kau gaue kele pea neʼe folau ki te tahi fenua lolotoga he temi loaloaga.+ 10 ʼI te hoko mai ʼo te temi toli vite, neʼe ina fekauʼi he tagata kaugana ke alu ki te kau gaue kele, ʼo kumi mai te vahe ʼo te ʼu fuaʼi vite. Kae neʼe ta ia e te kau gaue kele, ʼo natou fakaliliu ʼatea.+ 11 Kae neʼe ina toe fekauʼi te tahi tagata kaugana. Mo ia foki, neʼe natou ta, mo fakalainoaʼi pea mo fakaliliu ʼatea. 12 Kae neʼe ina toe fekauʼi mo te tolu kaugana. Mo ia foki, neʼe natou tamateʼi pea mo kapu. 13 Neʼe ui leva e te pule ʼo te gaueʼaga vite: ‘Kotea ʼae ʼe tonu ke au fai? ʼE au fekauʼi anai toku foha ʼofaina.+ ʼE mahino ia, ʼe natou fakaʼapaʼapa anai ki ai.’ 14 ʼI te sisio ʼa te kau gaue kele ki te foha, neʼe natou feuiʼaki: ‘Koʼeni ia ia ʼae ka ina maʼu te tofiʼa. Tou matehi ia ia ke tou maʼu tona tofiʼa.’ 15 Koia, neʼe natou toho ai ki tuʼa atu ʼi te gaueʼaga vite pea natou matehi ai ia ia.+ Kotea ʼae ka fai e te pule ʼo te gaueʼaga vite? 16 ʼE haʼu anai ʼo matehi te kau gaue kele ʼaia, pea ʼe ina foaki anai te gaueʼaga vite ki ʼihi.”

ʼI te logo ʼa te hahaʼi ki ai, neʼe natou ui: “Ke ʼaua naʼa hoko he aluʼaga feia!” 17 Kae neʼe sio fakahagatonu kia natou ʼo ina ui: “Koia, kotea te fakaʼuhiga ʼo te folafola ʼaeni: ‘Ko te maka ʼae neʼe liʼaki e te kau tufuga, kua liliu ko te maka tafito ʼo te agele’?*+ 18 Ko ʼae ʼe to ki te maka ʼaia, ʼe fasifasi anai.+ Pea ko ʼae ʼe to ki ai te maka ʼaia, ʼe laliki anai.”

19 ʼI te temi pe ʼaia, neʼe fia puke ia ia e te kau sekelipa pea mo te kau pelepitelo pule, he neʼe natou mahino neʼe ina fai te lea fakatata ʼaia ʼo ʼuhiga mo natou. Kae neʼe natou matataku ki te hahaʼi.+ 20 Pea hili tanatou lamalama ia ia, neʼe natou totogi fakafufu ʼihi tagata ke natou lau ʼe natou faitotonu. Neʼe natou fekauʼi natou kia te ia, ke natou maʼu he hala ʼi ʼana palalau,+ ke ʼave ai ia ia ki te puleʼaga mo te kovana. 21 Neʼe natou ui age: “ ʼE matou iloʼi ʼe totonu ʼau palalau mo ʼau akonaki pea ʼe mole ke fakapalatahi. Pea ʼe moʼoni te ʼu meʼa ʼae ʼe ke akoʼi ʼo ʼuhiga mo te ʼAtua. 22 Koia, ʼe gafua koa ke totogi te tukuhau kia Sesale* peʼe kailoa?” 23 Kae neʼe ina iloʼi tanatou kaka ʼo ina ui age: 24 “Kotou ʼaumai he foʼi tenalio.* ʼO ai te pāki mo te higoa fakatuʼulaga ʼae ʼe tuʼu ai?” Neʼe natou tali: “ ʼO Sesale.” 25 Neʼe ina ui age: “Koia, ʼe tonu ke kotou liufaki te ʼu meʼa ʼa Sesale kia Sesale,+ kae ko te ʼu meʼa ʼa te ʼAtua ki te ʼAtua.”+ 26 Neʼe mole feala ai ke natou maʼu he hala ʼi ʼana palalau ia muʼa ʼo te hahaʼi, koia neʼe mole kei natou fegufi ai he neʼe natou punamaʼuli ʼi tana tali.

27 Kae neʼe olo age kia te ia ʼihi Satuseo,* ʼae ʼe natou ui ʼe mole he fakatuʼuake,+ ʼo natou fehuʼi:+ 28 “ ʼAliki, neʼe tohi e Moisese maʼa tatou: ‘Kapau ʼe mate he tagata neʼe ʼohoana kae neʼe mole maʼu hana fanau, pea ʼe tonu ke ʼohoana tona tehina mo tona holotua ke maʼu he hako ʼo te tagata ʼaia.’+ 29 Koia, neʼe ʼi ai te fale tau tehina ʼe toko fitu. Neʼe ʼohoana te ʼuluaki, kae neʼe mate ia neʼe mole maʼu fanau. 30 Neʼe ʼohoanaʼi e te lua 31 pea mo te tolu ia te fafine ʼaia. Neʼe ʼohoanaʼi e te ʼu tehina ʼe toko fitu, pea neʼe natou mamate kae neʼe mole hanatou fanau. 32 Ki muli age leva, neʼe mate mo te fafine. 33 Koia ʼi te fakatuʼuake, ko ai ʼae ka ʼohoana mo te fafine? Koteʼuhi neʼe ʼohoanaʼi e te toko fitu ia te fafine ʼaia.”

34 Neʼe ui age e Sesu: “Ko te ʼu fanau ʼo te malama* ʼaeni ʼe natou ʼohoana, 35 kae ʼe mole ʼohoana ia natou ʼae ʼe tuha mo te malama* ʼae ka haʼu pea mo te fakatuʼuake ʼo te kau mate.+ 36 Pea ʼe mole kei feala ke mamate koteʼuhi ʼe natou hage ko te kau ʼaselo, pea ko natou ʼe ko te ʼu fanau ʼa te ʼAtua, he ʼe ko te ʼu fanau ʼo te fakatuʼuake. 37 Kae neʼe talanoa ia Moisese ki te fakatuʼuake ʼo te kau mate ʼi te fakamatala ʼae ʼo ʼuhiga mo te fuʼu ʼakau talatala, ʼi tana fakahigoaʼi ia Sehova* ko ‘te ʼAtua ʼo Apalahamo, mo te ʼAtua ʼo Isaake pea mo te ʼAtua ʼo Sakopo.’+ 38 ʼE mole ko te ʼAtua ʼo te kau mate kae ʼo natou ʼae ʼe maʼuʼuli, koteʼuhi kia te ia,* ʼe natou maʼuʼuli fuli.”+ 39 Neʼe tali e ʼihi kau sekelipa: “ ʼAliki, neʼe lelei ʼau palalau.” 40 Koteʼuhi neʼe mole kei natou lotomalohi ke natou toe faifehuʼi ki ai.

41 Neʼe ina fai age leva kia natou tana fehuʼi: “He koʼe ʼe ui e te hahaʼi ko Kilisito* ʼe ko te foha ʼo Tavite?+ 42 Koteʼuhi ʼe ui e Tavite ʼi te tohi ʼo te ʼu Pesalemo: ‘Neʼe ui e Sehova* ki toku ʼAliki: “Heka ʼi toku toʼomataʼu 43 ʼo kaku ki taku tuku ʼou fili ki ʼou lalo vaʼe.” ’+ 44 Koia, kapau ʼe fakahigoaʼi ia ia e Tavite ʼAliki, pea ʼe lava feafeaʼi ke ui ʼe ko hona foha?”

45 Pea ʼi te fagono ʼa te hahaʼi fuli kia te ia, neʼe ina ui ki ʼana tisipulo: 46 “Kotou tokakaga ki te kau sekelipa ʼae ʼe natou leleiʼia te feoloʼaki mo ʼonatou kofu loloa pea ke fai age he ʼu fakamalo ʼi te ʼu fakatauʼaga koloa. Pea ʼe natou leleiʼia te ʼu hekaʼaga ʼae ʼi muʼa* ʼi te ʼu sinakoka mo te ʼu nofoʼaga maʼuhiga ʼi te ʼu katoaga.+ 47 ʼE natou faʼao te ʼu koloa* ʼo te ʼu fafine vitua, pea mo natou faikole loaloaga ke tokagaʼi natou. Koia ʼe mamafa age anai tonatou fakamau.”
