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.
49 “Kuo u haʻu ke tuku ʻae afi ki māmani; pea ko e hā hoku loto, ʻo kapau kuo tutu ni ia?
50 ʻOku ai ʻae papitaiso ke u papitaiso ai; pea ʻoku ou feinga kaeʻoua ke fai ia!
51 ʻOku mou mahalo kuo u haʻu ke tuku ʻae melino ki māmani? ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻIkai; ka ko e mavahevahe:
52 Ngata heni ʻe feʻiteʻitani ʻae toko nima ʻi he fale pe taha, ko e toko tolu ki he toko ua, mo e toko ua ki he toko tolu.
53 ʻE feʻiteʻitani ʻae tamai ki he foha, mo e foha ki he tamai; ko e faʻē ki he taʻahine, mo e taʻahine ki he faʻē; ko e faʻē ʻi he fono ki heʻene taʻahine ʻi he fono, mo e taʻahine ʻi he fono ki heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono.”
54 Pea naʻa ne pehē foki ki he kakai, “ʻOka mou ka mamata ki he ʻalu hake ʻae ʻao mei he tokanga laʻā, ʻoku mou pehē leva, ʻOku haʻu ʻae ʻuha; pea ʻoku pehē.
55 Pea ʻoka angi mai ʻae matangi mei he feituʻu tonga, ʻoku mou pehē, ʻE pupuha pea ʻoku pehē.
56 ʻAe kau mālualoi, ʻoku mou ʻilo ʻae mata ʻoe fonua pea mo e langi; ka ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ai ʻae kuonga ni?
57 ʻIo, pea ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻekimoutolu ʻaia ʻoku totonu?
