Ngāue 12:9-14

⁹Pea naʻa ne ʻalu kituaʻā, ʻo muimui ʻiate ia; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo pe ko e moʻoni ʻaia kuo fai ʻe he ʻāngelo; ka naʻe mahalo ʻe ia ko e meʻa hā mai ʻoku ne mamata ai.

¹⁰Pea kuo na tuku ki mui ʻae ʻuluaki kau leʻo mo hono ua, pea na hoko ki he matapā ukamea, ʻoku ʻalu atu ai ki he kolo; pea matoʻo ia, ʻiate ia pe, kiate kinaua: pea naʻa na ō kituaʻā, ʻo na fononga ʻi he hala ʻe taha; pea fakafokifā pe kuo mole ʻiate ia ʻae ʻāngelo.

¹¹Pea kuo matala ʻae loto ʻo Pita, pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou toki ʻilo pau ni, kuo fekau mai ʻe he ʻEiki ʻene ʻāngelo, pea kuo ne fakamoʻui au mei he nima ʻo Helota, mo e ʻamanaki kotoa pē ʻae kakai Siu.”

¹²Pea ʻi heʻene kei fifili ki ai, mo ʻene hoko ki he fale ʻo Mele ko e faʻē ʻa Sione, ʻoku hingoa ko Maʻake; naʻe kātoa ai ʻae tokolahi ʻo lotu.

¹³Pea ʻi he tukituki ʻa Pita ki he matapā ʻi tuaʻā, naʻe haʻu ʻae taʻahine ʻoku hingoa ko Lota, ʻo fakafanongo.

¹⁴Pea ʻi heʻene ʻilo ʻae leʻo ʻo Pita, naʻe ʻikai te ne toʻo ʻae matapā, ko e meʻa ʻi he fiefia, ka ka lele ia ʻo tala ʻoku tuʻu ʻa Pita ʻi he matapā.
