Ngāue 12:19-23

¹⁹Pea ʻi he kumi ia ʻe Helota, mo ʻikai siʻi ʻilo ia, naʻa ne fakamaauʻi ʻae kau leʻo, pea fekau ʻe ia ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu. Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ia mei Siutea ʻo nofo ki Sesalia.

²⁰Pea naʻe ʻita lahi ʻa Helota kiate kinautolu ʻi Taia mo Saitone: ka naʻa nau haʻu loto taha kiate ia, pea kuo nau kāinga ʻaki ʻa Palasito, ko e tauhi ʻoe potu mohe ʻoe tuʻi, ʻo kole ke nau fakalelei; koeʻuhi naʻe maʻu ʻe honau fonua ʻae meʻakai mei he fonua ʻoe tuʻi.

²¹Pea ko e ʻaho naʻe kotofa, naʻe kofu fakatuʻi ai ʻa Helota, pea nofo ʻi hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi, pea fai ʻene lea kiate kinautolu.

²²Pea mavava ʻae kakai ʻo pehē, “Ko e leʻo ia ʻoe ʻotua, ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻoe tangata.”

²³Pea taaʻi leva ia ʻe ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻEiki, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ʻae fakaʻapaʻapa ki he ʻOtua: pea naʻe kai ia ʻe he ʻuanga, pea mate ia.
