Ngāue 5:15-25

¹⁵Ko ia naʻa nau fata ai ʻae ngaahi mahaki ki he ngaahi hala, ʻo fakatokoto ʻi he mohenga mo e tokotoʻanga, ke fakamalū honau niʻihi ʻaki ʻae ʻata ʻo Pita ʻi heʻene ʻalu ange.

¹⁶Pea naʻe haʻu foki ʻae tokolahi mei he ngaahi kolo ʻoku ofi ki Selūsalema, ke fetuku mai ʻae kakai mahaki, mo kinautolu naʻe mamahi ʻi he kau laumālie ʻuli: pea naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.

¹⁷Pea toki tutuʻu hake ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, (i he faʻahinga ʻoe Sātusi,) kuo nau fonu ʻi he ʻita,

¹⁸Pea naʻa nau puke ʻae kau ʻAposetolo, ʻo fakahū ʻakinautolu ki he fale fakapōpula lahi.

¹⁹Ka naʻe toʻo ʻae matapā ʻoe fale fakapōpula ʻe ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻEiki ʻi he pō, pea ne ʻomi kituʻa ʻakinautolu, mo ne pehē,

²⁰“Mou ʻalu, ʻo tuʻu ʻi he falelotu lahi, pea malanga ki he kakai ʻaki ʻae lea kotoa pē ʻoe moʻui ni.”

²¹Pea kuo nau fanongo ki ai, naʻa nau uhu hengihengi ki he falelotu lahi, ʻo ako. Ka naʻe haʻu ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, mo kinautolu naʻe ʻiate ia, pea fakataha ʻae kau fakamaau, mo e mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea nau fekau ke ʻomi ʻakinautolu mei he fale fakapōpula.

²²Ka ʻi he hoko atu ʻae kau tangata fekau, ʻo ʻikai ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻi he fale fakapōpula, naʻa nau liu mai, ʻo fakahā,

²³‌ʻO pehē, “Ko e moʻoni naʻa mau ʻilo ʻae fale fakapōpula ʻoku tāpuni maʻu, pea tutuʻu ʻituʻa ʻae kau leʻo ʻi he ngaahi matapā: ka ʻi heʻemau toʻo ia, naʻe ʻikai te mau ʻilo ʻi loto ha tokotaha.”

²⁴Pea kuo fanongo ki he ngaahi meʻa ni ʻae fungani taulaʻeiki mo e pule ʻoe falelotu lahi mo e kau taulaʻeiki lahi, naʻa nau fifili pe fēfē ai nai eni.

²⁵Pea naʻe toki haʻu ʻae tokotaha, ʻo ne fakahā kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ko e kau tangata naʻa mou fakahū ki he fale fakapōpula, ʻoku nau tutuʻu ʻi he falelotu lahi, ʻo ako ki he kakai.”
