Lea Fakatātā 8:7-17

⁷Pea ʻe lea ʻaki ʻae moʻoni ʻe hoku ngutu; pea ko e meʻa fakalielia ki hoku loungutu ʻae kovi.

⁸‌ʻOku ʻi he māʻoniʻoni ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻa hoku ngutu; ʻoku ʻikai ha pikopiko pe ha kākā ʻi ai.

⁹‌ʻOku ʻilongofua kotoa pē kiate ia ʻoku poto, pea totonu kiate kinautolu ʻoku maʻu ʻae ʻilo.

¹⁰Maʻuā ʻeku akonaki, kae siʻaki ʻae siliva; pea ke lelei hake ʻae maʻu ʻoe ʻilo ʻi he koula lelei.

¹¹“He ʻoku lelei hake ʻae poto ʻi he ngaahi maka koloa; pea ʻoku ʻikai faʻa tatau mo ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke faʻa holi ki ai.

¹²Ko au poto ʻoku ma nonofo mo faʻa filioʻi, pea u maʻu ʻae ʻilo ʻi he fakatupu meʻa foʻou.

¹³Ko e manavahē kia Sihova, ko e fehiʻa ia ki he kovi: ko e fielahi, mo e fakapuhopuhā, mo e angakovi mo e ngutu kovi, ʻoku ou fehiʻa ki ai.

¹⁴‌ʻOku ʻaʻaku ʻae akonaki, mo e poto moʻoni: ko au ko e faʻa ʻilo, ʻoku ʻiate au ʻae mālohi.

¹⁵Ko e meʻa ʻiate au ʻoku pule ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻi, pea fai fakamaau ʻe he houʻeiki.

¹⁶‌ʻOku pule ʻae houʻeiki ʻiate au, mo e kakai ʻeiki, mo e kau fakamaau kotoa pē ʻo māmani.

¹⁷‌ʻOku ou ʻofa kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻofa kiate au; pea ʻe maʻu au ʻekinautolu ʻoku kumi tōtōaki kiate au.
