Te Evaselio ʼa Mateo

9 Neʼe heka ki te vaka ʼo fakalaka ki te tahi kauvai pea neʼe alu ki tona kolo.+ 2 Pea neʼe natou ʼaumai kia te ia te tagata palalisia neʼe takoto ʼi te palepale. ʼI tana tokagaʼi tanatou tui, neʼe ui e Sesu ki te tagata palalisia: “Ke ke lotomalohi, siʼaku fanau! Kua fakamolemole ʼau agahala.”+ 3 Neʼe feuiʼaki e ʼihi sekelipa: “ ʼE laukovi te tagata ʼaeni ki te ʼAtua.” 4 Neʼe iloʼi e Sesu ʼanatou manatu pea neʼe ina ui age: “He koʼe ʼe kotou maʼu te ʼu manatu kovi ʼaia?+ 5 Kotea ʼae ʼe faigafua age, ko te ui ʼae ‘Kua fakamolemole ʼau agahala’ peʼe ko te ui ʼae ‘Tuʼu ake pea ke haʼele’?+ 6 Kae ke kotou iloʼi ʼe maʼu e te Foha ʼo te tagata te malohi ʼi te kele ke ina fakamolemole te ʼu agahala . . .” neʼe ina ui age ki te tagata palalisia: “Tuʼu ake, toʼo tou palepale pea ke alu ki tou ʼapi.”+ 7 Pea neʼe tuʼu ake ai te tagata ʼo alu ki tona ʼapi. 8 ʼI te sisio ʼa te hahaʼi kaugamalie ki te faʼahi ʼaia, neʼe natou manavasiʼi pea mo fakakololiaʼi ai te ʼAtua, ʼae neʼe ina foaki ia te malohi ʼaia ki te tagata.

9 Pea ʼi tana mavae mai ai, neʼe sio ia Sesu ki te tagata neʼe higoa ko Mateo neʼe heka ʼi te fale ʼo te ʼu tukuhau. Neʼe ina ui age ki ai: “Muli mai ia te au.” Neʼe tuʼu ake aipe pea ina muliʼi ia ia.+ 10 Ki muli age, ʼi te lolotoga kai ʼa Sesu ʼi te ʼapi, tokolahi te kau tanaki tukuhau mo te kau agahala neʼe olo age ʼo kakai fakatahi mo ia pea mo ʼana tisipulo.+ 11 Kae ʼi te sisio ʼa te kau Faliseo ki te faʼahi ʼaia, neʼe natou ui ki ʼana tisipulo: “He koʼe ʼe kai fakatahi takotou faiako mo te kau tanaki tukuhau pea mo te kau agahala?”+ 12 ʼI tana logo ki ʼanatou palalau, neʼe ina ui age: “ ʼE mole ko te hahaʼi malolohi ʼae ʼe ʼaoga ki ai he toketa, kae ko natou ʼae ʼe mahahaki.+ 13 Koia, kotou olo pea kotou ako te fakaʼuhiga ʼo te folafola ʼaeni: ‘ ʼE au loto ki te manavaʼofa kae mole ki te sakilifisio.’+ Koteʼuhi neʼe mole au haʼu ʼo pauʼi te kau faitotonu, kae ko te kau agahala.”

14 Pea neʼe olo age te ʼu tisipulo ʼa Soane kia te ia ʼo fakalavelave: “Ko matou mo te kau Faliseo ʼe matou sesunio tuʼumaʼu, kae he koʼe ʼe mole sesunio ʼau tisipulo?”+ 15 Neʼe tali age e Sesu kia natou: “ ʼI te kei nofo ʼa te tagata ʼohoana+ mo ʼona kaumeʼa, ʼe mole he tupuʼaga ke natou lotomamahi ai. Kae ʼe hoko mai anai te temi ʼae ka toʼo ai te tagata ʼohoana mai ia natou,+ pea ʼe hoki natou sesunio ai anai. 16 ʼE mole tui e he tahi he moʼi kie foʼou ki he kofu ʼafeā, koteʼuhi ʼe haeʼi anai e te moʼi kie foʼou ia te kofu pea ʼe kovi age anai tona mahae.+ 17 Pea ʼe mole ʼai e te hahaʼi ia te vino foʼou ki he ʼu ʼaiʼaga vino* ʼafeā. He ʼe kapau ʼe natou fai feia, ʼe mahae anai ia te ʼu ʼaiʼaga vino, ʼo hali ai te vino pea maumau te ʼu ʼaiʼaga vino. Kae ʼe ʼai e te hahaʼi ia te vino foʼou ki he ʼu ʼaiʼaga vino foʼou, pea ʼe nā tologa ai anai.”

18 ʼI tana lolotoga fai te ʼu palalau ʼaia, neʼe fakaovi age te tagata pule, ʼo hu kia te ia, pea ina ui age: “ ʼI te lakaga ʼaeni, kua lagi mate toku ʼofafine. Kae haʼu mo au ʼo hili tou nima ki ai pea ʼe toe maʼuli anai.”+

19 Neʼe tuʼu ake ai ia Sesu mo ʼana tisipulo ʼo natou muliʼi ia ia. 20 Pea neʼe fakaovi age mai ʼona tuʼa ia he fafine kua taʼu 12 tana mahaki, neʼe maligi te toto ia ia.+ Pea neʼe fa ki te tapaʼi kofu ʼo Sesu,+ 21 he neʼe manatu: “Kapau ʼe au fa pe ki tona kofu tuʼa pea ʼe au malolo anai.” 22 Neʼe maliu atu ia Sesu pea ʼi tana sio ki ai, neʼe ina ui: “Taʼahine, ke ke lotomalohi! Kua fakamalolo koe e tau tui.”+ Pea neʼe malolo atu aipe ia te fafine.+

23 ʼI tana hu leva ki te loto fale ʼo te tagata pule, neʼe sio ki te kau puhi fagufagu pea mo te hahaʼi kaugamalie neʼe faifetagihi.+ 24 Neʼe ui e Sesu: “Kotou mavae ʼi heni, koteʼuhi ʼe heʼeki mate te kiʼi taʼahine kae ʼe lolotoga moe ia.”+ Neʼe natou kamata nukinukiʼi ai ia ia. 25 ʼI te ʼosi mavae ʼa te hahaʼi kaugamalie, neʼe hu ki te faʼahi ʼae neʼe tuku ai te kiʼi taʼahine ʼo ina puke tona nima+ pea neʼe tuʼu ake ai.+ 26 Neʼe palalauʼi leva ia te faʼahi ʼaia ʼi te koga fenua katoa.

27 ʼI te mavae ʼa Sesu mai ai, neʼe mulimuli ia te ia te ʼu tagata kivi ʼe toko lua+ ʼo nā kalaga: “Foha ʼo Tavite, ʼofa mai kia maua.” 28 ʼI te ʼosi hu ʼa Sesu ki te ʼapi, neʼe olo age te ʼu tagata kivi ʼaia, pea neʼe ina fehuʼi age kia naua: “ ʼE kolua tui koa ʼe feala ke au fakahoko ia te faʼahi ʼaia?”+ Neʼe nā tali age: “ ʼE ma tui ki ai, ʼAliki.” 29 Pea neʼe ina hili ʼona nima ki ʼonā mata,+ ʼo ina ui: “Ke hoko kia koulua ʼo mulimuli ki takolua tui.” 30 Neʼe ava ai ʼonā mata. Pea neʼe toe fakatotonu age e Sesu kia naua: “Kolua tokakaga naʼa iloʼi e he tahi.”+ 31 Kae ʼi tanā ʼosi mavae mai ai, neʼe nā palalau ʼo ʼuhiga mo ia ki te hahaʼi fuli pe ʼo te koga fenua ʼaia.

32 ʼI tanā mavae atu, neʼe ʼaumai e te hahaʼi kia te ia te tagata neʼe ʼalelo mate pea neʼe ulu sino ai te temonio.+ 33 ʼI te ʼosi kapu e Sesu ia te temonio, neʼe toe palalau leva ia te tagata ʼae neʼe ʼalelo mate.+ Neʼe punamaʼuli ai te hahaʼi kaugamalie pea natou ui: “Neʼe heʼeki matou sisio ki he aluʼaga feia ʼi Iselaele.”+ 34 Kae neʼe ui e te kau Faliseo: “ ʼE ina kapu te kau temonio ʼaki te malohi ʼo te pule ʼo te kau temonio.”+

35 Pea neʼe alu ia Sesu ki te ʼu kolo lalahi pea mo te ʼu kolo liliki fuli, ʼo faiakonaki ʼi ʼonatou sinakoka, mo fakamafola te logo lelei ʼo te Puleʼaga pea mo fakamalolo te ʼu mahaki pea mo te ʼu maʼimoa kehekehe.+ 36 ʼI tana sio ki te hahaʼi kaugamalie, neʼe ʼofa mamahi ia natou,+ koteʼuhi neʼe natou ogosia pea mo mavetevete ohage ko he ʼu ovi ʼe mole honatou tauhi ovi.+ 37 Pea neʼe ina ui age ki ʼana tisipulo: “ ʼE moʼoni, ʼe lahi te taʼukai kae ʼe tokosiʼi te kau gaue.+ 38 Koia, kotou kole ki te Pule ʼo te taʼukai ke ina fekauʼi mai he kau gaue ki tana taʼukai.”+
