⁵Pea ʻi he nau fanongo eni naʻa nau papitaiso ʻi he huafa ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.

⁶Pea kuo hilifaki ʻae nima ʻo Paula kiate kinautolu, pea hoko kiate kinautolu ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni; pea naʻa nau leaʻaki ʻae lea kehekehe, mo nau kikite.

⁷Pea ko e tangata ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua nai ʻakinautolu.

⁸Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki he falelotu, ʻo ako mālohi ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu, ʻo ne fakamatala mo fakapapau atu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoe puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.

⁹Kae ʻi he fakafefeka ʻae niʻihi, mo ʻikai tui, kae lea kovi ki he hala ko ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, naʻa ne mahuʻi ʻiate kinautolu, mo ne vahevahe mei ai ʻae kau ākonga, pea malanga ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻi he fale lautohi ʻoe tangata ko Tilano.

¹⁰Pea ne fai ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe ua; ko ia naʻe fanongo ai ki he folofola ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi ʻEsia, ʻae kakai Siu mo e Kiliki.

¹¹Pea naʻe fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi mana fakaofo ʻi he nima ʻo Paula:

¹²He naʻe ʻave mei hono sino ʻae ngaahi holoholo mo e noʻo, ki he kakai mahaki, pea naʻe mahuʻi ʻae mahaki ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻalu ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau laumālie kovi.

¹³Pea ko e kau Siu niʻihi naʻe feʻaluʻaki fano, ko e kau fie mana, naʻa nau fai ke ui ʻaki ʻae huafa ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu kiate kinautolu naʻe ulusino ai ʻae ngaahi laumālie kovi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau fekau mālohi kiate kimoutolu ia Sisu, ʻaia ʻoku malangaʻaki ʻe Paula.”

¹⁴Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻae ngaahi foha ʻe toko fitu ʻo Siva, ko e Siu, pea ko e taulaʻeiki lahi.

¹⁵Pea naʻe lea ʻae laumālie kovi, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻa Sisu, pea ʻoku ou ʻilo mo Paula; ka ko hai ʻakimoutolu?”

¹⁶Pea naʻe ʻoho kiate kinautolu ʻae tangata naʻe ulusino ai ʻae laumālie kovi, pea naʻa ne ikuna ʻakinautolu, mo fai mālohi kiate kinautolu, pea naʻa nau feholaki mei he fale ko ia kuo nau telefua mo makafokafo.

¹⁷Pea naʻe ʻilo eni ʻe he Siu mo e Kiliki kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi ʻEfesō; pea naʻe tō ʻae manavahē kiate kinautolu kotoa pē, pea naʻe ongoongolelei ai ʻae huafa ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.

¹⁸Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tokolahi naʻe tui, ke vete mo fakahā ʻenau ngaahi faianga.

¹⁹Pea ko e tokolahi, ʻiate kinautolu naʻe ngāue fakafiemana, naʻa nau ʻomi ʻo fakataha ʻenau ngaahi tohi, ʻo tutu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai: pea naʻa nau lau hono totongi ʻoe ngaahi tohi, ko e paʻanga siliva ʻe nima mano.

²⁰He naʻe mātuʻaki tupulekina pea mālohi ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua.

²¹Pea kuo hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe maʻu ʻae loto ʻo Paula ke ʻalu ki Selūsalema, ʻoka hili ʻene ʻalu ʻi Masitōnia, mo ʻAkeia, pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOka hili ʻeku ʻalu ki ai, ʻe totonu ke u vakai foki ki Loma.”

²²Pea fekau ʻe ia ke ō ki Masitōnia ʻae toko ua ʻiate kinautolu naʻe tauhi kiate ia, ko Timote mo Eleasito; ka naʻe kei nofo siʻi ia ʻi ʻEsia.

²³Pea naʻe tupu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻae maveuveu lahi, ko e meʻa ʻi he lotu ko ia.

²⁴He ko e tangata ko Temetelio hono hingoa, ko e tufunga ngaohi siliva, naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae teunga siliva ki he fale lahi ʻo Taiena, pea naʻe lahi ʻae koloa naʻe maʻu ai ʻe he kau tufunga;

²⁵Pea naʻa ne fakakātoa ʻakinautolu, mo e kakai naʻa nau kaunga faiva fakataha mo ne pehē, “ʻAe kau matāpule, ʻoku mou ʻilo ko e meʻa ʻi he faiva ni ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻetau koloa.

²⁶Pea ko eni, ʻoku mou mamata mo fanongo kuo fakalotoʻi mo fakatafoki ʻe Paula ni ʻae kakai tokolahi, ʻikai ʻi ʻEfesō pē, kae meimei ʻi ʻEsia kotoa pē, ʻi heʻene pehē, ʻOku ʻikai ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻaia ʻoku ngaohi ʻe he nima:

²⁷Pea ʻe ʻikai ngata ʻi he manukiʻi ʻo ʻetau faiva ni; ka ʻe taukaea foki mo e fale lahi ʻoe ʻotua fefine ongoongo ko Taiena, pea ʻe maumau mo hono nāunau, ʻaia ʻoku hū ki ai ʻa ʻEsia mo māmani kotoa pē.”

²⁸Pea ʻi heʻenau fanongo, naʻa nau fonu ʻi he ʻita, mo nau kalanga, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku lahi ʻa Taiena ʻoe kakai ʻEfesō.”

²⁹Pea naʻe maveuveu ʻae kolo kotoa pē: pea kuo nau puke ʻa Keio mo ʻAlisitako, ko e ongo tangata Masitōnia, ko e kau fononga ʻo Paula, naʻa nau feʻohofi fakataha ki he fale faiva.

³⁰Pea naʻe fie ʻalu atu ʻa Paula ki loto ki he kakai, ka naʻe taʻofi ia ʻe he kau ākonga.

³¹Pea ko e niʻihi ʻi he kau matāpule ʻo ʻEsia, ko hono kāinga, naʻa nau fekau atu, ʻo kole kiate ia ke ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa ʻalu ia ki he fale faiva.

³²Pea kalanga ʻaki ʻe he niʻihi ha meʻa ʻe taha, pea ko e niʻihi ha meʻa kehe: he naʻe puputuʻu ʻae kakai, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he tokolahi pe ko e hā kuo nau fakataha ai.

³³Pea naʻa nau taki mai ʻa ʻAlekisānita, mei he kakai, pea fokotuʻu ia ʻe he kakai Siu. Pea taʻalo ʻaki ʻe ʻAlekisānita hono nima, ʻo fie fakamatala ki he kakai.
