15 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko kimoutolu eni ʻoku mou fakatonuhia ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ka ʻoku ʻilo ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa homou loto: he ko ia ʻoku lelei lahi ki he kakai, ʻoku fakalielia ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
16 “Naʻe ai ʻae fono mo e kau palōfita ʻo aʻu kia Sione: pea talu mei ai mo e malangaʻaki ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ului ki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē.
17 Pea ʻoku faingofua hake ke mole ʻae langi mo māmani, ʻi he mole ha kupuʻi lea ʻe taha ʻoe fono.
18 “Ko ia ʻoku ne tukuange hono uaifi, kae mali mo ha taha, ʻoku tono fefine ia: pea ko ia ʻoku ne mali mo ia kuo tukuange mei hono husepāniti, ʻoku tono fefine ia.
19 “Naʻe ai ha tangata koloaʻia, naʻa ne ʻai ʻae kofu kulokula mo e tupenu mahuʻinga, pea kai ʻe ia ʻae meʻa lelei ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē:
20 Pea naʻe ai ha tangata paea, ko Lasalosi hono hingoa, naʻe fakatokoto ia ʻi hono matapā, kuo tofu ʻi he papala,
21 ʻO ne holi ke fafanga ʻaki ia ʻae momoʻi meʻakai naʻe ngangana mei he keinangaʻanga ʻae tangata maʻumeʻa: pea naʻe haʻu foki ʻae fanga kulī, ʻo ʻemo hono papala.
22 Pea pehē, naʻe mate ʻae tangata paea, pea fua ia ʻe he kau ʻāngelo ki he fatafata ʻo ʻEpalahame: pea mate foki ʻae tangata maʻumeʻa, pea tanu ia;
23 Pea hanga hake ia hono mata ʻi heli, ʻoku ongosia ia, pea ne mamata kia ʻEpalahame ʻi he mamaʻo ʻaupito, mo Lasalosi ʻi hono fatafata.
24 “Pea tangi ia, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE tamai ko ʻEpalahame, ke ke ʻofa mai kiate au, pea fekau ʻa Lasalosi ke ne ʻai hono muʻa tuhu ki he vai, mo fakamomoko hoku ʻelelo: he ʻoku ou feinga ʻi he afi ni.’
25 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEpalahame, ‘Foha, ke ke manatu naʻa ke maʻu hoʻo ngaahi meʻa lelei ʻi hoʻo moʻui, pea naʻe ʻia Lasalosi foki ʻae ngaahi meʻa kovi; ka ko eni, ʻoku fiemālie ia, ka kuo ke feinga koe.
26 Kaeʻumaʻā eni kotoa pē, ʻoku ai ʻae fuʻu vanu lahi ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo kimautolu mo kimoutolu: ko ia ʻe ʻikai lava atu ʻakinautolu ʻoku fie ʻalu ʻi heni kiate kimoutolu; pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa haʻu kiate kimautolu ʻakinautoluʻoku fie haʻu mei hena.’
