3 ʻOua naʻa tuku ho mālohi ki he kakai fefine, pe ko ho ngaahi hala ki he meʻa ʻoku ʻauha ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻi.
4 ʻOku ʻikai taau mo e ngaahi tuʻi, ʻE Limueli, ʻoku ʻikai taau mo e ngaahi tuʻi ke faʻa inu kava pe ke inu ʻe he houʻeiki ʻae kava kona.
5 Telia naʻa nau inu, pea ngalo ai ʻae fono, pea taʻetotonu ai ʻae fakamaau, ki he kakai ʻoku mamahi.
6 ʻAtu ʻae kava mālohi kiate ia ʻoku meimei mate, mo e uaine kiate kinautolu ʻoku māfasia honau loto.
7 Tuku ke ne inu ke ngalo ai ʻene masiva, pea ʻoua naʻa toe manatu ki heʻene mamahi.
8 Ke matoʻo ho ngutu koeʻuhi ko e noa, ʻi he meʻa ʻanautolu kotoa pē kuo fakamaau ki he mate.
9 Matoʻo ho ngutu, pea ke fakamaau māʻoniʻoni, pea ke langomakiʻi ʻae masiva, pea mo e paea ʻi heʻene meʻa.”
10 Ko hai ʻoku faʻa maʻu ʻae fefine fai lelei? He ʻoku maʻongoʻonga ia ʻi he ngaahi maka koloa.
11 ʻOku falala fakamoʻomoʻoni kiate ia ʻae loto ʻo hono husepāniti, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaonga kiate ia ha meʻa ʻoku maʻu ʻi he fakamālohi.
12 ʻE fai lelei ia kiate ia, ka ʻe ʻikai ha kovi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui:
13 ʻOku ne kumi ʻae fulufuluʻi sipi, mo e louʻakau, ʻo ne ngāue fiefia ʻaki ʻa hono nima.
14 ʻOku ne hangē ko e ngaahi vaka ʻoe kau fakatau, he ʻoku ne ʻomi ʻene meʻakai mei he mamaʻo.
15 ʻOku ne tuʻu hake foki ʻi he kei poʻuli, ʻo ne tufaki ʻae meʻakai ki heʻene kau nofoʻanga, mo e ʻinasi ʻo ʻene kau kaunanga.
16 ʻOku ne manako ki ha ngoue, pea ne fakatau ia: pea ʻoku ne tō ʻae ngoue vaine mei he fua ʻo hono nima.
17 ʻOku nonoʻo ʻaki ʻae mālohi ʻa hono kongaloto, ʻoku ne fakamālohi hono nima.
18 ʻOku ne ʻilo ʻoku lelei ʻae meʻa ʻoku ne fakatauʻaki: ʻoku ʻikai ke mate ʻene maama ʻi he pō.
