Ioni 9:3-13

³Ta Ieisu vonedia, “Gebu tauna ena luveifana ʼinega ta wese ge inana nage tamana ʼidiega. Ta ʼesi baʼe yani nana ʼifoqe be yaqisa tomotau Yaubada ena viaqa waiwaidi ina ʼitedi benaʼe ʼoloto nana ʼinega.

⁴Itaʼa qabuda luaqiaqieda be ʼaubena qabuna agu Tovetune ena fewa kana viaqia, mana tuta goyona navelovanea ta ge taha toga ana fata nafewa.

⁵Ta yaʼa nawale baʼade bwaʼobwaʼoya yatoatoa, ta egu toa nana ʼinaya yaʼa totoa bwaʼobwaʼo edi simatala.”

⁶ʼAbibodanaya Ieisu gidaʼwa bwaʼobwaʼoya, ta wayavilea bwaʼobwaʼo maega ta vemwatefula, ʼinega ʼoloto nana matana ʼeʼabiʼabidi.

⁷ʼInega voneaya, “Una tauya qawana Sailoama ʼinaya ta matau una ʼutudi!” (Ta wawa nana ana givila Vetune). Tuata ʼoloto nana tauya ta matana luʼutudi, ʼabo ʼeluʼeaedi, ta ana fata naʼita, ʼinega ʼevivi tauya ʼabagaya.

⁸Lova totoa ʼabaga ta wese mali tomotau ʼoloto nana tuta qabuna iʼiteʼitea toatoa ta vevenoqinoqi iula weaqina. Ta baʼitagana iʼita ʼeviviea ʼinega taudiega nuanidia ivonaya, “Ana ʼita kavona tauna tovenoqinoqi nana, waisa?”

⁹Ta vaidi tomotau ivonaya, “Vonahaqiaqi, taunana!” Ta wese vaidi ivonaya, “Ana ʼita kavona tauna, ta ʼesi tauna mali tomotau!” Ta ʼoloto nana taunega vona ʼifoqeyea, vonaya, “E, yaʼa baʼe tauguna!”

¹⁰ʼInega ivetalaʼaiea ivonaya, “Maʼoda ʼinega matau ʼeluʼeaedi?”

¹¹Ta veʼiedi vonaya, “ʼOloto nana ana wawa Ieisu mwatefula viaqia ta matagu ʼeʼabiʼabidi. ʼInega vonegu be ena tauya Sailoama ʼinaya sabi ʼutudi. Tuata yatauya ta yaʼutudi, ʼinega agu fata ena ʼita.”

¹²ʼInega wese ivetalaʼaiea ivonaya, “Maʼinaya ʼoloto nana?” Ta tauna vonedia, “Avodi.”

¹³Ieisu ʼaubena Sabate ʼinaya mwatefula nana viaqia ta ʼoloto nana matana giveaqiaqiea. ʼInegana baʼe tomotau diavona ʼoloto nana lova matana kwayakwayana itauyea Falisiavo ʼidia.
