fakakaumeʻa maʻu ai pē kiate kinautolu: pea ko ia naʻa nau
omi ki Selusalema, kuo ofi mai ʻa e kātoanga ʻo e ngaahi uiké.
32 Pea hili ʻa e kātoangá, ʻa ia naʻe ui ko e Penitekosí, naʻa
nau ʻalu atu ke tauʻi ʻa Gorgias ko e kōvana ʻo ʻIumea,
33 ʻA ia naʻe haʻu mo e kau tangata fute ʻe toko tolu afe mo e
kau tangata heka hoosi ʻe toko fāngeau.
34 Pea naʻe hoko ʻi heʻenau tau fakataha ha niʻihi tokosiʻi ʻo e
kau Siú naʻe tāmateʻi.
35 ʻI he taimi ko iá naʻe kei ʻi Gorgias pē ʻa Tositheus, ko e
taha ʻo e kau fononga ʻa Bacenor, ʻa ia naʻe heka hōsí, pea ko
ha tangata mālohi, naʻe kei ʻi Gorgias, ʻo ne puke hono koté
naʻá ne tohoakiʻi fakamālohiʻi ia; pea ʻi heʻene ʻave ʻa e
tangata malaʻia ko iá naʻe moʻui, naʻe tuʻusi ia ʻe ha tangata
heka hoosi ʻo Taialisi mei hono umá, ko ia naʻe hola ʻa
Gorgias kia Malisa.
36 Ko ʻeni ʻ i he taimi naʻa nau tau fuoloa ai ʻ a e faʻahinga
naʻe ʻ i Gorgias, pea naʻa nau helaʻiá, naʻe ui ʻ a Siutasi ki he ʻ
Eikí, ke ne fakahā ia ko honau tokoni mo e taki ʻ o e taú.
37 Pea ʻi heʻene kamata ʻi heʻene lea pē ʻaʻaná, ʻo ne hiva ʻaki
ʻa e ngaahi sāmé ʻaki ʻa e leʻo-lahi, pea naʻá ne ʻai ke nau hola.
38 Naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe Siutasi ʻene kau taú, pea nau hū ki
he kolo ko ʻOollamí, Pea ʻi he hokosia ʻa e ʻaho hono fitú,
naʻa nau fakamaʻa ʻa kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e anga fakafonuá,
ʻo nau tauhi ʻa e Sāpaté ʻi he potu tatau pē.
39 Pea ʻi he ʻaho hono hokó, ʻo hangē ko hono fakaʻaongaʻí,
naʻe haʻu ʻa Siutasi mo hono kaungā-ngāué ke toʻo hake ʻa e
ngaahi sino ʻo kinautolu naʻe maté, pea tanu ia mo honau
kāingá ʻi he ngaahi faʻitoka ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamaí.
40 Ko ʻeni ʻi he lalo kofu ʻo e tokotaha kotoa pē naʻe tāmateʻí
naʻa nau ʻilo ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kuo fakatapui ki he ngaahi
tamapua ʻa e kau Seimi, ʻa ia kuo tapui ki he kau Siú ʻi he
fonó. Pea naʻe mamata ʻa e tangata kotoa pē ko e ʻuhinga ʻeni
naʻe tāmateʻi ai ʻa kinauá.
41 Ko ia ai, ʻoku fakafetaʻi ʻa e kakai kotoa pē ki he ʻEikí, ko
e Fakamaau māʻoniʻoní, ʻa ia kuó ne fakaava ʻa e ngaahi meʻa
naʻe fufuú,
42 Naʻa nau lotu, ʻo kole kiate ia ke lava ʻo toʻo kakato ʻa e
angahala naʻe faí mei he manatú. ʻIkai ngata aí, naʻe naʻinaʻi
ʻa Siutasi fakaʻeiʻeiki ko iá ki he kakaí ke maluʻi ʻa kinautolu
mei he angahalá, ʻo aʻu ki heʻenau mamata ʻi honau ʻaó ki he
ngaahi meʻa naʻe hoko koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi angahala
ʻanautolu naʻe tāmateʻí.
43 Pea ʻi he hili ʻene tānaki fakataha ʻa e kautahá ki he
paʻanga siliva ʻe ua afe, naʻá ne ʻave ia ki Selusalema ke fai
ha feilaulau ʻo e angahalá, ʻo fai lelei mo moʻoni ai, he naʻá
ne manatuʻi ai ʻa e toetuʻú:
44 He kapau naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻamanaki ʻe toe tuʻu hake ʻa
kinautolu kuo tāmateʻí, ko e meʻa taʻeʻaonga mo taʻeʻaonga
ke lotua ʻa e kau pekiá.
45 Pea ʻi heʻene ʻiloʻi foki naʻe ʻi ai ʻa e fuʻu ʻofeina lahi kuo
tokonaki maʻanautolu naʻe mate faka-ʻOtuá, ko ha fakakaukau
māʻoniʻoni mo lelei ia. ʻA ia naʻá ne fai ai ha fakalelei maʻá e
pekiá, koeʻuhí ke fakahaofi ʻa kinautolu mei he angahalá.
VAHE 13
1 Naʻe fakahā kia Siutasi ʻi hono teau fāngofulu mā hiva ʻo e
taʻú, ʻe haʻu ʻa ʻAniteoke ʻEupatoru mo e fuʻu mālohi lahi ki
Siutea,
2 Pea ʻiate ia Lysias hono maluʻi, mo e pule ʻo ʻene ngaahi
ngaue, ʻo ne maʻu ha malohi Grecian ʻo e footmen, ʻo toko
teau taha mano, mo horsemen nima afe tolungeau, mo e fanga
ʻelifanite ua uofulu ma ua, mo e ngaahi saliote ʻe tolungeau
kuo fakamahafu ʻaki ʻa e ngaahi hele.
3 Naʻe kau fakataha foki ʻ a Menelaus mo kinautolu, pea ʻ i he
fuʻu faʻifaʻitaki lahi naʻá ne fakalototoʻaʻi ʻ a ʻ Aniteokesi, ʻ o
ʻ ikai ki hono maluʻi ʻ o e fonuá, ka koeʻuhi naʻá ne
fakakaukau naʻe ngaohi ia ko e kōvana.
4 Ka naʻe ueʻi ʻe he Tuʻi ʻo e ngaahi tuʻí ʻa e fakakaukau ʻa
ʻAniteokō ke fakafepakiʻi ʻa e angahala ko ʻení, pea fakahā ʻe
Līsia ki he tuʻí ko e tangatá ni ko e tupuʻanga ia ʻo e meʻa
pauʻu kotoa pē, ko ia naʻe fekau ai ʻe he tuʻí ke ʻomi ia ki
Peila, pea ke tāmateʻi ia, ʻo hangē ko e anga ʻoku ʻi he feituʻu
ko iá.
5 Ko ʻeni naʻe ʻi he potu ko iá ha taua ʻoku kiupiti ʻe
nimangofulu hono māʻolungá, naʻe fonu ʻi he efuefu, pea naʻe
ʻi ai ha meʻangāue fuopotopoto ʻa ia naʻe tautau ʻi he tafaʻaki
kotoa pē ʻo e efuefú.
6 Pea ʻilonga ia naʻe fakahalaiaʻi ʻi he sacrilege, pe kuó ne fai
ha hia fakamamahi kehe, naʻe ʻi ai ʻa e kakai kotoa pē naʻa
nau kapusi ia ke mate.
7 Ko ha mate pehē naʻe hoko ai ʻa e mate ʻa e tangata
angakoví, ʻo ʻikai ke tanu ʻi he māmaní; pea ko e meʻa totonu
taha ia:
8 He ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fai ʻa e ngaahi angahala lahi ʻo kau
ki he ʻōlitá, ʻa ia naʻe māʻoniʻoni ʻene afí mo e efué, naʻá ne
mate ʻi he efuefu.
