Ngāue 15:23-36

²³Pea naʻa nau fai ʻae tohi ke nau ʻave; ʻo pehē, “Ko e kau ʻaposetolo mo e mātuʻa pea mo e kāinga, ʻoku mau ʻofa atu ki he kāinga Senitaile ʻi ʻAniteoke mo Silia mo Silisia:

²⁴Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻemau fanongo kuo fakamamahiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea, pea fakamaveuveuʻi homou loto, ʻe ha niʻihi, naʻe ʻalu atu ʻiate kimautolu, ʻi heʻenau pehē, Ke mou kamu, mo fai ki he fono: ka naʻe ʻikai te mau fekau kiate kinautolu:

²⁵Kuo hā lelei kiate kimautolu, ʻi heʻemau fakataha ʻo loto taha, ke fekau atu kiate kimoutolu ʻae ongo tangata kuo fili, mo homau kāinga ʻofeina ko Pānepasa mo Paula,

²⁶Ko e ongo tangata kuo na liʻaki ʻena moʻui koeʻuhi ko e huafa ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.

²⁷Ko ia kuo mau fekau atu ai ʻa Siutasi mo Sailosi, pea ʻe fakamatala foki ʻekinaua ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni.

²⁸Naʻe lelei ki he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, pea mo kimautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha kavenga mamafa kiate kimoutolu, ka ko e ngaahi meʻa totonu ni;

²⁹Ke mou fakamamaʻo mei he meʻakai kuo feilaulau ʻaki ki he ngaahi tamapua, pea mei he toto, mo e meʻa kuo sisina, pea mo e feʻauaki; ʻaia ka mou ka mavahe ʻakimoutolu mei ai, te mou lelei. Siʻotoʻofa atu kiate kimoutolu.”

³⁰Pea kuo nau māvae, pea nau fononga ki ʻAniteoke: pea kuo nau fakataha ai ʻae kakai, naʻa nau tuku ʻae tohi kiate kinautolu.

³¹Pea hili ʻenau lau ia, naʻa nau fiefia koeʻuhi ko e fakafiemālie.

³²Pea naʻe ako ʻi he ngaahi lea lahi, mo tokoni ki he kāinga, ʻe Siutasi mo Sailosi, he ko e ongo palōfita foki ʻakinaua.

³³Pea hili ʻenau nofo ai ʻo fuoloa siʻi, naʻe tuku fiemālie atu ʻakinautolu mei he kāinga, ke ō ki he kau ʻaposetolo.

³⁴Ka naʻe loto ʻa Sailosi ke nofo ai pe ia.

³⁵Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Paula mo Pānepasa ʻi ʻAniteoke, ʻo ako mo malangaʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki, pea mo e tokolahi kehe.

³⁶Pea hili ʻae ʻaho niʻihi, naʻe pehē ʻe Paula kia Pānepasa, “Ke ta toe ō, ʻo ʻaʻahi ki hota kāinga ʻi he kolo kotoa pē, naʻa ta malangaʻaki ai ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki, pē ʻoku nau fēfē.”
