16 Ko ia ʻe fekau atu ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻEiki ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻae tutue ki honau kakai sino; pea te ne tutu ke vela ʻa hono nāunau ʻo hangē ko e kakaha ʻae afi.
17 Pea ko e maama ʻo ʻIsileli ʻe hoko ia ko e afi, pea ko hono tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ko e ulo afi, pea ʻe kakaha ia pea fakaʻauha ʻi he ʻaho pe taha hono ngaahi ʻakau talatala mo e talatalaʻāmoa;
18 Pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻae lelei ʻoe vao lahi ʻo ia, pea mo ʻene ngoue ʻoku fua, ʻae laumālie mo e sino fakatouʻosi; pea te nau hangē ko e tangata toʻo fuka kuo pongia.
19 Pea ko hono toe ʻoe ʻakau ʻoe vao lahi ko ia te nau tokosiʻi, ko ia ʻe faʻa tohi ia ʻe ha tamasiʻi.
20 Pea ʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻo pehē, ko hono toe ʻo ʻIsileli, pea mo kinautolu kuo hao ʻi he fale ʻo Sēkope, ʻe ʻikai te nau toe falala kiate ia naʻe taaʻi ʻakinautolu; ka e falala moʻoni kia Sihova, ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli.
21 ʻE foki mai hono toe, ʻio, ʻae toe ʻo Sēkope, ki he ʻOtua Māfimafi.
22 He neongo ʻae tatau ʻa hoʻo kakai, ʻE ʻIsileli, mo e ʻoneʻone ʻoe tahi, ka e foki mai pe hono toe: kuo pau ke hoko ʻae fakaʻauha ʻe fonu mahua ʻi he fai totonu.
23 He ko Sihova ko e ʻEiki ʻoe ngaahi kautau te ne fai ʻae fakaʻauha kuo kotofa, ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fonua kotoa pē.
24 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻEiki ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “ʻE hoku kakai ʻaia ʻoku nofo ʻi Saione, ʻoua ʻe manavahē ki he tangata ʻAsilia: te ne taaʻi koe ʻaki ʻae meʻa tā, pea hiki hake hono tokotoko kiate koe, ka ʻe hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻi ʻIsipite.
25 Koeʻuhi ʻe toetoe siʻi pea ʻe ngata ʻa hoku tuputāmaki, pea mo hoku houhau, ka te u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu.
26 Pea ʻe hiki hake ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻae meʻa tautea ʻo hangē ko e fakaʻauha ʻa Mitiane ʻi he maka ko Olepi: pea tatau mo ʻene tokotoko naʻe ai ki he tahi, ʻe pehē ʻa ʻene hiki hake ia ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ki ʻIsipite.
27 Pea ʻe hoko pehē, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻe toʻo ʻene kavenga mei ho uma, mo ʻene haʻamonga mei ho kia, pea ʻe maumauʻi ʻae haʻamonga mei homou uma.”
28 Kuo haʻu ia ki ʻAiata, kuo ʻalu atu ia ki Mikiloni; kuo ne tānaki ʻene ngaahi saliote ʻi Mikimasi:
29 Kuo nau laka ʻi he potu fāsiʻi: kuo nau nofo ʻi Kepa; ʻoku manavahē ʻa Lama; pea kuo hola ʻa Kipea ʻo Saula.
30 ʻE ʻofefine ʻo Kalimi, hiki hake ho leʻo: fai ke ongo atu ia ki Leisi, ʻE ʻAnatoti masiva.
