Te Evaselio ʼa Mateo 22:1-46
22 Neʼe toe palalau age ia Sesu kia natou ʼaki ni lea fakatata, ʼo ina ui:
2 “ ʼE feala ke fakatatau te Puleʼaga ʼo selo ki he hau ʼe ina teuteuʼi he kaitahi ki te faiʼohoana+ ʼo tona foha.
3 Pea neʼe ina fekauʼi ʼana kaugana ke natou pauʼi mai ia natou ʼae neʼe fakaafe ki te kaitahi, kae neʼe mole natou fia ʼomai.+
4 Neʼe ina toe fekauʼi te tahi ʼu kaugana, ʼo ina ui age: ‘Kotou fakaha age ki te kau fakaafe ʼe kua au teuteuʼi te meʼa kai, kua au matehi te ʼu vitulo mo te ʼu manu sisino pea kua tokalelei ia meʼa fuli. Kotou ʼomai ki te kaitahi ʼo te faiʼohoana.’
5 Kae neʼe mole natou tokagaʼi te fakaafe. Neʼe natou tahi alu, ko ʼihi ki ʼanatou gaueʼaga, ko ʼihi ki ʼanatou gaue faikoloa.+
6 Pea ko ʼihi leva neʼe natou puke ʼana kaugana, ʼo natou gaohi koviʼi pea mo matehi natou.
7 “Neʼe ita lahi ai te hau ʼo ina fekauʼi ʼana tagata solia ke natou olo ʼo matematehi te hahaʼi faifakapo ʼaia pea mo tutu tonatou kolo.+
8 Neʼe ina ui leva ki ʼana kaugana: ‘Kua tokalelei te kaitahi ʼo te faiʼohoana, kae neʼe mole tau mo te kau fakaafe ke natou kau ki ai.+
9 Koia, kotou olo ʼi te ʼu ala lalahi, ʼo kotou fakaafe ki te kaitahi ʼo te faiʼohoana ia natou fuli ʼae ʼe kotou maʼu.’+
10 Neʼe olo ai leva te ʼu kaugana ʼaia ʼi te ʼu ala pea mo natou fakaafe ia natou fuli ʼae neʼe natou maʼu, te kau agakovi pea mo te kau agalelei. Pea neʼe fonu ai te fale faiʼohoana ko te kau fakaafe.
11 “ ʼI te haʼu ʼa te hau ʼo fakasiosio te kau fakaafe, neʼe ina tokagaʼi ia te tagata neʼe mole ina tui te teu ki te faiʼohoana.
12 Neʼe ina ui age ki ai: ‘Tagata, neʼe feafeaʼi tau ulu mai ki heni kae mole hou teu ki te faiʼohoana?’ Neʼe mole gu age ia.
13 Pea neʼe ui e te hau ki ʼana tagata faifekau: ‘Kotou haʼi ʼona nima mo ʼona vaʼe pea kotou li ia ia ki tuʼa, ki te fakapoʼuli. ʼE tagi mo lotomamahi ai anai.’
14 “Koteʼuhi ʼe tokolahi te kau fakaafe, kae tokosiʼi ia natou ʼae ʼe filifili.”
15 Neʼe mavae leva te kau Faliseo pea neʼe natou fonofono ke natou maʼu he hala ʼi ʼana palalau.+
16 Pea neʼe natou fekauʼi kia te ia ʼanatou tisipulo, mo natou ʼae neʼe lagolago kia Helote.+ Pea neʼe natou ui age: “ ʼE matou iloʼi ʼe ke tuha mo te falala pea ʼe ke akoʼi moʼoni te ala ʼo te ʼAtua, pea ʼe mole ke fakapalatahi, koteʼuhi ʼe mole ke sioʼi te meʼa ʼae ʼe ha ki tuʼa ʼi te tagata.
17 Koia, fakaha mai pe kotea tau manatu ʼo ʼuhiga mo te totogi ʼo te tukuhau kia Sesale,* pe ʼe gafua koa peʼe kailoa?”
18 Kae neʼe iloʼi e Sesu tanatou fakatuʼutuʼu kovi. Neʼe ina ui age kia natou: “Kau malualoi! He koʼe ʼe kotou ʼahiʼahiʼi au?
19 Kotou fakaha mai te foʼi piesi ʼae ʼe totogi ʼaki te tukuhau.” Neʼe natou fakatoʼo age te foʼi tenalio.*
20 Neʼe ina fehuʼi age kia natou: “ ʼO ai te pāki mo te higoa fakatuʼulaga ʼae ʼe tuʼu ai?”
21 Neʼe natou tali age: “ ʼO Sesale.” Pea neʼe ina ui kia natou: “Koia, kotou liufaki te ʼu meʼa ʼa Sesale kia Sesale, kae ko te ʼu meʼa ʼa te ʼAtua ki te ʼAtua.”+
22 Neʼe natou punamaʼuli ai ʼi tanatou logo ki te faʼahi ʼaia. Neʼe natou maliu ai ʼo olo.
23 ʼI te ʼaho pe ʼaia, neʼe olo age kia te ia te kau Satuseo, ʼae ʼe natou ui ʼe mole he fakatuʼuake,+ ʼo natou fehuʼi:+
24 “ ʼAliki, neʼe ui e Moisese: ‘Kapau ʼe mate he tagata kae neʼe mole maʼu hana fanau, pea ʼe tonu ke ʼohoana tona tehina mo tona holotua ke ina maʼu he hako ki tona tehina.’+
25 Pea neʼe fakatahi mo matou he fale tau tehina ʼe toko fitu. Neʼe ʼohoana te ʼuluaki pea neʼe mate ia, kae neʼe mole maʼu fanau. Koia, neʼe ʼohoana ai tona tehina mo tona holotua.
26 Pea neʼe toe feia pe mo te lua, pea mo te tolu, ʼo kaku ki te fitu.
27 Neʼe natou mamate fuli, pea mate fakamuli leva ia te fafine.
28 Koia ʼi te fakatuʼuake, ko ai ʼi te toko fitu ʼaia ʼae ka ʼohoana mo te fafine? Koteʼuhi neʼe natou ʼohoanaʼi fuli ia te fafine.”
29 Neʼe tali age e Sesu: “ ʼE kotou faihala he ʼe mole kotou mahino ki te ʼu Tohi Taputapu pea mo te mafimafi ʼo te ʼAtua.+
30 Koteʼuhi ʼi te fakatuʼuake, ʼe mole ʼohoana te hahaʼi tagata pea ʼe mole fakaʼohoanaʼi te hahaʼi fafine, kae ʼe natou hage ko te kau ʼaselo ʼi selo.+
31 Neʼe heʼeki kotou lau koa la te folafola ʼae neʼe tala atu e te ʼAtua ʼo ʼuhiga mo te fakatuʼuake ʼo te kau mate, ʼi tana ui:
32 ‘Ko au te ʼAtua ʼo Apalahamo pea mo te ʼAtua ʼo Isaake pea mo te ʼAtua ʼo Sakopo’?+ ʼE mole ko te ʼAtua ʼo te kau mate kae ʼo natou ʼae ʼe maʼuʼuli.”+
33 ʼI te logo ʼa te hahaʼi ki te faʼahi ʼaia, neʼe natou punamaʼuli ʼuhi ko tana faiakonaki.+
34 ʼI te iloʼi e te kau Faliseo neʼe mole lava tali ia te kau Satuseo kia te ia, neʼe natou ʼomai fakatahi ai.
35 Pea ko te tahi ia natou, ʼe poto ʼi te Lao, neʼe ina ʼahiʼahiʼi ia ia ʼo ina fehuʼi age:
36 “ ʼAliki, ʼe ko te fakatotonu fea ʼo te Lao ʼae ʼe lahi age?”+
37 Neʼe ina tali age: “ ‘ ʼE tonu ke ke ʼofa kia Sehova* tou ʼAtua ʼaki tou loto katoa, mo tou maʼuli* katoa pea mo tou ʼatamai katoa.’+
38 ʼE ko te ʼuluaki fakatotonu ʼaia pea mo lahi age.
39 Pea koʼeni te lua, ʼae ʼe tatau mo ia: ‘ ʼE tonu ke ke ʼofa ki tou tatau ohage pe ko koe totonu.’+
40 Ko te Lao katoa mo te ʼu tohi ʼa te kau Polofeta ʼe fakatafito ki te ʼu fakatotonu ʼaia ʼe lua.”+
41 Pea ʼi te fakatahitahi ʼa te kau Faliseo, neʼe fehuʼi age e Sesu kia natou:+
42 “Kotea takotou manatu ʼo ʼuhiga mo Kilisito?* ʼE ko te foha ʼo ai?” Neʼe natou tali age: “ ʼO Tavite.”+
43 Neʼe ina fehuʼi age kia natou: “Kapau koia, he koʼe ko Tavite, ʼaki te laumalie maʼoniʼoni,+ ʼe ina fakahigoaʼi ia ia ʼAliki, ʼi tana ui:
44 ‘Neʼe ui e Sehova* ki toku ʼAliki: “Heka ʼi toku toʼomataʼu ʼo kaku ki taku tuku ʼou fili ki ʼou lalo vaʼe” ’?+
45 Koia, kapau ʼe fakahigoaʼi ia ia e Tavite ʼAliki, pea ʼe lava feafeaʼi ke ui ʼe ko hona foha?”+
46 Neʼe mole feala ke tali age e he tahi, pea talu mai te ʼaho ʼaia, neʼe mole toe fia faifehuʼi age he tahi.
