Loma 3:11-27

¹¹‌ʻOku ʻikai ha taha ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ʻoku kumi ki he ʻOtua.

¹²Kuo nau hē kotoa pē, kuo nau hoko ʻo taʻeʻaonga kotoa pē; ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku fai lelei, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito ha taha,

¹³Ko honau kia ko e fonualoto kuo matangaki; kuo nau fai fakakākā ʻaki honau ʻelelo; ko e meʻa kona ʻoe ngata fekai ʻoku ʻi lalo ʻi honau loungutu:

¹⁴‌ʻOku pito honau ngutu ʻi he kapekape mo e lea fakamahū:

¹⁵Ko honau vaʻe ʻoku vave ke lilingi toto:

¹⁶‌ʻOku ʻi honau ngaahi hala ʻae fakaʻauha mo e malaʻia:

¹⁷Pea ko e hala ʻoe melino ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻiloʻi:

¹⁸Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha manavahē ki he ʻOtua ʻi honau ʻao.”

¹⁹Ko eni, ʻoku tau ʻilo ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku fakahā ʻi he fono, ʻoku fakahā ia kiate kinautolu ʻoku moʻulaloa ki he fono: koeʻuhi ke mapuni ʻae ngutu kotoa pē, kae nofo ʻa māmani kotoa pē kuo halaia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.

²⁰Ko ia ʻe ʻikai fakatonuhiaʻi ha tokotaha ʻi hono ʻao ʻe he ngaahi ngāue ʻoe fono: he ʻoku mei he fono ʻae ʻiloʻi ʻoe angahala.

²¹Ka ko eni, ʻoku fakahā ʻae fakatonuhiaʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi he taʻekau ʻae fono, pea ʻoku fakamoʻoni ia ʻe he fono mo e kau palōfita;

²²‌ʻIo, ʻae fakatonuhiaʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he tui kia Sisu Kalaisi kiate kinautolu kotoa pē pea ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tui: he ʻoku ʻikai ha fai kehekehe:

²³He kuo fai angahala kotoa pē, pea tomui ʻi he fakamālō mei he ʻOtua.

²⁴Pea ʻoku fakatonuhiaʻi ko e ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pē ʻi heʻene ʻaloʻofa, koeʻuhi ko e totongi huhuʻi ʻaia ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi Sisu:

²⁵‌ʻAia kuo fakahā atu ʻe he ʻOtua ko e feilaulau fakalelei ia, ʻi he tui ki hono taʻataʻa, koeʻuhi ke fakahā ʻene māʻoniʻoni ʻi he fakamolemole ʻoe angahala kuo fai, ko e meʻa ʻi he faʻa kātaki ʻae ʻOtua;

²⁶Ke fakahā ʻi he kuonga ni ʻa ʻene māʻoniʻoni: koeʻuhi ke angatonu pe ia, ka ko e fakatonuhia ia ʻo ia ʻoku tui kia Sisu.

²⁷Pea ka kuo pehē, pea kofa'a 'ae pole? Kuo kapusi ia. 'E he fono fono fē? ʻOe ngaahi ngāue? ʻIkai ʻaupito: ka ʻe he fono ʻoe tui.
