Tongan RWV Ephesians 4장

Pea ko eni, ko au ko e pōpula ʻae ʻEiki, ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ke mou ʻaʻeva ʻo taau mo e ui ʻaia kuo uiuiʻi ʻaki ʻakimoutolu,

‌ʻI he angavaivai kotoa pē mo e angamalū, mo e kātaki fuoloa, ʻo fekātakiʻaki ʻi he ʻofa;

‌ʻO ʻahiʻahi lahi ke tauhi ʻae feʻofoʻofani ʻoe Laumālie ʻi he noʻo ʻoe melino.

‌ʻOku taha pe ʻae sino pea taha ʻae Laumālie, ʻio, ʻo hangē kuo ui ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻamanaki lelei pe taha ʻo homou uiuiʻi;

Ko e ʻEiki pe taha, ko e tui pe taha, ko e papitaiso pe taha,

Ko e ʻOtua pe taha mo e Tamai ʻatautolu kotoa pē, ʻaia ʻoku māʻolunga he meʻa kotoa pē, pea ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, pea ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē.

Ka kuo foaki kiate kitautolu taki taha kotoa pē ʻae ʻofa, ʻo fakatatau ki hono lahi ʻoe foaki ʻa Kalaisi.

Ko ia ʻoku ne pehē ai, “ʻI heʻene ʻalu hake ki ʻolunga, naʻa ne taki pōpula ʻae fakapōpula, ʻo ne ʻatu ʻae ngaahi foaki ki he kakai.”

(Pea ko ʻene “ʻalu hake,” ko e hā ia ka koeʻuhi naʻe tomuʻa ʻalu hifo ia ki he ngaahi potu ʻi mama ki lalo ni?

Ko ia naʻa ne ʻalu hifo, ko ia ia foki naʻa ne ʻalu hake ʻo māʻolunga lahi ʻaupito ʻi he ngaahi langi kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ke ne fakafonu ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē.)

Pea “naʻa ne foaki ʻae niʻihi,” ko e kau ʻaposetolo; mo e niʻihi, ko e kau palōfita; mo e niʻihi, ko e kau ʻevangeliō; mo e niʻihi, ko e kau faifekau mo e kau akonaki;

Ko hono fakahaohaoa ʻoe kakai māʻoniʻoni, mo e ngāue fakafaifekau, ke langa hake ʻae sino ʻo Kalaisi:

Kae ʻoua ke tau hoko kotoa pē ki he fakataha ʻi he tui, pea mo e ʻiloʻi ʻoe ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua, ki he tangata haohaoa, ki he fuofua ʻo hono lahi ʻoe fonu ʻo Kalaisi:

Koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa tau kei fakatamaiki, ʻo feliliʻaki, mo feʻaveʻaki fano ʻe he matangi ʻoe akonaki kotoa pē, ʻi he poto kākā ʻoe tangata, mo e poto ʻi he fiemuʻa, ʻaia ʻoku nau toka tataʻo ai ke kākaaʻi;

Kae lea ʻaki ʻae moʻoni ʻi he ʻofa, pea tupu hake ʻiate ia, ʻaia ko Kalaisi ko e ʻulu, ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē:

‌ʻAia ʻoku fakahokohoko ai ʻae sino kotoa, pea fakataha ʻi he meʻa ʻoku tokoni ʻaki ʻe he kupu kotoa pē, ʻo fakatatau ki hono faʻa fai ʻi he fua ʻoe potu kotoa pē, ʻoku tupulaki ai ʻae sino, pea langa hake ia ʻi he ʻofa.

Pea ko e meʻa ni, ʻoku ou tala mo fakapapau ʻi he ʻEiki, ke ʻoua te mou kei ʻaʻeva ʻo hangē ko e ʻaʻeva ʻae Senitaile kehe, ʻi he vale ʻo honau loto,

Kuo fakapoʻuli honau loto, kuo fakamavaheʻi mei he moʻui fakaʻotua, ʻi he vale ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu, ko e meʻa ʻi he fefeka ʻo honau loto:

‌ʻAkinautolu ʻoku taʻeongoʻi, kuo nau tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he anga fakalielia, ke fai ʻae meʻa ʻuli kotoa pē ʻi he fiefie fai.

Ka kuo ʻikai pehē hono akonekina ʻakimoutolu meia Kalaisi;

He kuo fanongo ʻakimoutolu kiate ia, pea kuo akonekina ʻakimoutolu meiate ia, ʻo fakatatau ki he moʻoni ʻoku ʻia Sisu:

Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻulungāanga motuʻa, ke mou siʻaki ʻae tangata motuʻa, ʻaia ʻoku fakalielia, pea tatau mo e ngaahi holi kovi fakakākā;

Pea ke fakafoʻou ʻakimoutolu ʻi he tefito ʻo homou loto;

Pea ke ʻai ʻekimoutolu ʻae tangata foʻou, ʻaia ʻoku fakatupu ke tatau mo e ʻOtua ʻi he angatonu mo e māʻoniʻoni moʻoni.

Ko ia ke liʻaki ʻae loi, kae taki taha lea ʻaki ʻae moʻoni ki hono kaungāʻapi: he ʻoku tau fekupuʻaki ʻakitautolu.

Ke mou ʻita, kae ʻalu hifo ʻae laʻā mo hoʻomou ʻita:

Pea ʻoua naʻa fakaʻataʻatā ki he tēvolo.

Ko ia ia naʻe kaihaʻa, ke ʻoua ʻe toe kaihaʻa: ka ne ngāue muʻa, ʻo fai ʻaki hono nima ʻae meʻa ʻoku lelei, koeʻuhi ke ne maʻu ke foaki kiate ia ʻoku masiva.

Ke ʻoua naʻa haʻu ha talanoa ʻuli mei homou ngutu, ka ko ia ʻoku lelei ʻo ʻaonga ke langaʻaki hake, koeʻuhi ke tupu ai ʻae tokoni ki he kau fanongo.

Pea ʻoua naʻa fakamamahi ki he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo silaʻi ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻaho ʻoe huhuʻi.

Tuku ke mamaʻo ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae loto kovi kotoa pē, mo e ʻita, mo e lili, mo e feʻiohoʻaki, mo e lea fakakovi, mo e fakafasifasi kotoa pē:

Kae feangaleleiʻaki ʻakimoutolu kiate kimoutolu, ʻo manavaʻofa, ʻo fefakamolemoleʻaki ʻakimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko e fakamolemolea ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko Kalaisi.
