16 Peau toki manatu ki he folofola ʻae ʻEiki, ʻi heʻene pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni naʻe papitaiso ʻe Sione ʻaki ʻae vai; kae papitaiso ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.’
17 Pea koeʻuhi kuo foaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kinautolu ʻae foaki, ʻo hangē ko kitautolu, naʻe tui ki he ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi; pea ko hai au, ke u faʻa taʻofia ʻae ʻOtua?”
18 Pea kuo nau fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻa nau fakalongo pe, ʻo fakamālō ki he ʻOtua, ʻonau pehē, “Ta kuo tuku foki ʻe he ʻOtua ki he ngaahi Senitaile ʻae fakatomala ki he moʻui.”
19 Pea ko kinautolu naʻe fakamovetevete ʻi he fakatanga naʻe tupu ia Setiveni, naʻa nau fononga atu ʻo aʻu ki Finesi, mo Saipalo, mo ʻAniteoke, ʻo malangaʻaki ʻae folofola ka ki he kakai Siu pe.
20 Pea ko honau niʻihi ko e kau tangata mei Saipalo mo Sailine, pea ʻi heʻenau hoko ki ʻAniteoke, naʻa nau lea ki he kau ʻElinisitō, ʻo malangaʻaki ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu.
21 Pea naʻe ʻiate kinautolu ʻae nima ʻoe ʻEiki: pea naʻe tui ʻae tokolahi, mo tafoki ki he ʻEiki.
22 Pea kuo ongo mai ʻae meʻa ni ki he siasi ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻa nau fekau atu ʻa Pānepasa, ke ʻalu ia ʻo aʻu ki ʻAniteoke.
23 Pea kuo hoko atu ia, ʻo mamata ki he ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, naʻe fiefia ia, mo ne ako kiate kinautolu kotoa pē, ke nau pikitai ki he ʻEiki ʻi he loto maʻu.
24 He ko e tangata lelei ia, pea fonu ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni mo e tui: pea naʻe ului ki he ʻEiki ʻae kakai tokolahi.
25 Pea toki ʻalu ʻa Pānepasa ki Tasusi, ʻo kumi kia Saula:
26 Pea kuo ne ʻilo ia, naʻa ne ʻomi ia ki ʻAniteoke. Pea naʻa na faʻa fakataha mo e siasi ʻi he taʻu kotoa, ʻo ako ki he kakai tokolahi. Pea naʻe tomuʻa ui ʻi ʻAniteoke ʻae kau ākonga ko e Kalisitiane.
27 Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, naʻe haʻu ʻae kau palōfita, mei Selūsalema, ki ʻAniteoke.
28 Pea naʻe tuʻu hake honau tokotaha ko ʻAkapusi hono hingoa, ʻo ne kikite ʻi he Laumālie, ʻe tō ha honge lahi ki māmani kotoa pē: ʻaia naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Kalotiusi Sisa.
