Loma 14:9-19

⁹He ko eni ʻae meʻa naʻe pekia ai ʻa Kalaisi, mo toetuʻu, ʻo toe moʻui, koeʻuhi ke ʻEiki ia ki he mate mo e moʻui.

¹⁰Ka ko e hā ʻoku ke fakamaau ai ho tokoua? Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke manuki ai ki ho tokoua? He te tau tutuʻu kotoa pē ʻi he fakamaauʻanga ʻo Kalaisi.

¹¹He kuo tohi, “ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, Ko au ʻoku ou moʻui, ʻe peluki ʻae tui kotoa pē kiate au, pea ʻe vete ʻae ʻelelo kotoa pē ki he ʻOtua.”

¹²Ko ia te tau fakamatala atu taki taha kotoa pē ia ki he ʻOtua.

¹³Ko ia ke ʻoua naʻa tau kei fefakamaauʻaki ʻakitautolu: kae fakamaau muʻa eni, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ʻai ʻe ha taha ha tūkiaʻanga pe ha meʻa ke fakahinga ʻaki ʻa hono tokoua.

¹⁴‌ʻOku ou ʻilo, pea kuo u maʻu pau mei he ʻEiki ko Sisu, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻoku taʻemaʻa tuʻungaʻa pē: ka ko ia ʻoku ne lau ha meʻa ko e taʻemaʻa, ʻoku taʻemaʻa ia kiate ia.

¹⁵Pea kapau ʻoku mamahi ho tokoua koeʻuhi ko e meʻakai, ʻoku ʻikai ai te ke laka ʻo taau mo e ʻofa. ʻOua naʻa ke fakaʻauha ia ʻaki hoʻo meʻakai, ʻaia naʻe pekia ai ʻa Kalaisi.

¹⁶Ko ia ke ʻoua naʻa tuku ke lauʻikoviʻi ʻa hoʻomou lelei.

¹⁷He ko e puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻikai ko e meʻakai pe ko e inu; ka ko e māʻoniʻoni, mo e melino, mo e fiefia ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.

¹⁸Pea ko ia ʻoku ne tauhi ʻa Kalaisi ʻi ʻaonga ia ki he ʻOtua, pea lelei ki he kakai.

¹⁹Ko ia ke tau tuli ki he ngaahi meʻa fakamelino, mo e ngaahi meʻa te tau felangaʻaki hake ai ʻakitautolu.
