8 Pea lea ia, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, ‘ʻEiki, tuku ai pe ia ʻi he taʻu ni foki, kaeʻoua ke u keli tākai, mo taufetuku ki ai.
9 Heiʻilo ʻe toki fua ia, pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, pea ke toki tā hifo ia.’”
10 Pea naʻe ako ia ʻi he falelotu ʻe taha ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate.
11 Pea vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ha fefine naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie fakamahaki ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma valu, pea naʻe mapelu ia ki lalo, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito ke faʻa tuʻu hake ia.
12 Pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻa Sisu, naʻa ne ui ia, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Fefine, kuo veteki koe mei hoʻo mahaki.”
13 Pea ne hilifaki hono nima kiate ia; pea naʻe toki tuʻu totonu leva ia, mo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua.
14 Pea lea ʻita ange ʻae pule ʻoe falelotu, koeʻuhi naʻe fakamoʻui ʻe Sisu ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, ʻo ne pehē ki he kakai, “ʻOku ono ʻae ʻaho ʻoku totonu ke ngāue ai ʻae kakai: ko ia mou haʻu ai ke mou moʻui, kaeʻoua ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate.”
15 Pea folofola ange ʻae ʻEiki, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “Ko e mālualoi koe! ʻIkai ʻoku mou taki taha vete ʻene pulu, pe ko ʻene ʻasi, mei hono tuʻunga, ʻo tataki ia ke fakainu, ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate?
16 Pea ʻe ʻikai lelei ke vete ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, mei he haʻi ni, ʻae fefine ni, ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻEpalahame ʻaia kuo haʻisia ʻe Sētane, ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma valu ni?”
17 Pea ʻi heʻene lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe ma hono ngaahi fili kotoa pē; kae fiefia ʻae kakai kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi meʻa ongoongolelei kotoa pē kuo ne fai.
18 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku tatau mo e hā ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua? Pea te u fakatatau ia ki he hā?
19 ʻOku tatau ia mo e foʻi tengaʻi musita, naʻe toʻo ʻe ha tangata, ʻo lī ki heʻene ngoue, pea tupu ia, ʻo hoko ko e ʻakau lahi; pea nofo ai ʻae fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā ʻi hono ngaahi vaʻa.”
20 Pea toe pehē ʻe ia, “Te u fakatatau ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua ki he hā?
21 ʻOku tatau ia mo e meʻa fakatupu, naʻe toʻo ʻe ha fefine, ʻo fufū ʻi he fua mahoaʻa ʻe tolu, ke ʻoua ke fakatupu ʻaki kotoa pē ia.”
22 Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻi he ngaahi kolo mo e potu kakai, ʻo ako, mo fononga atu ki Selūsalema.
23 Pea toki pehē ʻe he tokotaha kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ko e tokosiʻi pe te nau moʻui?” Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu,
24 “Fai feinga ke hū ʻi he matapā fāsiʻi: he ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻE kumi ʻe he tokolahi ke hū ki ai, kae ʻikai te nau mafai.
25 Pea ka tuʻu hake ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe fale, ʻo tāpuni ʻae matapā, pea te mou tutuʻu leva ʻi he matapā ʻituʻa, ʻo tukituki, mo pehē ai, ‘ʻEiki, ʻEiki, toʻo kiate kimautolu;’ pea ʻe lea ia, ʻo pehē mai kiate kimoutolu, ‘ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo pe ko hoʻomou haʻu mei fē:’
26 Pea te mou lea leva, ʻo pehē, ‘Naʻa mau kai mo inu ʻi ho ʻao, pea naʻa ke akonaki ʻi homau ngaahi hala.’
