39 Pea ʻilo eni, ka ne ʻilo ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe fale ʻa e feituʻupō ko ia ʻe haʻu ai ʻae kaihaʻa, pehē, ne leʻo ia, ka ʻe ʻikai tuku ke hae hono fale.
40 Ko ia mou teuteu pe foki: he ko e feituʻulaʻā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻamanaki ki ai, ʻe haʻu ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.”
41 Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ke lea ʻaki mai ʻae fakatātā ni kiate kimautolu, pe ki he kakai kotoa pē?”
42 Pea pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “He ko hai ʻae tauhi angatonu mo poto, ʻe fakanofo ʻe heʻene ʻeiki ke pule ki hono kau nofoʻanga, ke ʻatu ʻae tufakanga ʻi hono feituʻu totonu?
43 ʻE monūʻia ʻae tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻoka haʻu ʻene ʻeiki ʻo ne ʻilo ʻoku fai pehē pe ia.
44 Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni kiate kimoutolu, Te ne fakanofo ia ke pule ki heʻene meʻa kotoa pē.
45 Pea ka pehē ʻe he tamaioʻeiki ko ia ʻi hono loto, ‘ʻOku fakatuotuai ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki ʻa ʻene haʻu;’ pea hanga ia ʻo taaʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga, pea kai mo inu ke konā:
46 ʻE haʻu ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe tamaioʻeiki ko ia ʻi ha ʻaho ʻe ʻikai ʻamanaki ia ki ai, pea ʻi ha feituʻulaʻā ʻe ʻikai tokanga ai ia, ʻo tuʻusi ia, pea tuʻutuʻuni ke ne ʻinasi fakataha mo e taʻetui.
47 Pea ko e tamaioʻeiki ko ia naʻe ʻilo ʻae loto ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, ka naʻe ʻikai ke teuteu, pe fai ʻo fakatatau mo hono loto, ʻe taaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi tā lahi.
48 Ka ko ia naʻe ʻikai ʻiloa, pea fai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ngali mo e tautea, ʻe taaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi tā siʻi. He ko ia ia kuo tuku ki ai ʻae meʻa lahi, ʻe ʻamanaki lahi ʻiate ia; pea ko ia kuo tuku ki ai ʻe he kakai ʻae meʻa lahi, ʻe lahi ai ʻenau ʻamanaki ʻiate ia.
