3 Pea naʻa nau fakataha ʻakinautolu kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, pea nau pehē kiate kinaua, “ʻOku lahi fau ʻa hoʻomo fie pule ʻamoua, he kuo māʻoniʻoni taki taha kotoa pē ʻae kakai, pea ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻa Sihova: pea ko e hā te mo hiki hake ai ʻakimoua ke mo māʻolunga ʻi he kakai ʻa Sihova?”
4 Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻa Mōsese, naʻe tō fakafoʻohifo ia ki hono mata:
5 Pea naʻa ne pehē kia Kola mo hono kakai kotoa pē, “ʻE fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻapongipongi ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻoʻona, pea mo ia ʻoku māʻoniʻoni; pea te ne tuku ia ke ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi kiate ia: ʻio, ko ia kuo ne fili te ne tuku ke ʻunuʻunu mai ki heʻene ʻafio.
6 Mou fai eni; Toʻo homou ngaahi ipu ʻaiʻanga afi, ʻa Kola, mo hono kakai kotoa pē;
7 Pea tuku ki ai ʻae afi, ʻo ʻai ʻae ʻakau namu kakala ki ai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻapongipongi: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e tangata ʻe fili ki ai ʻa Sihova ko e māʻoniʻoni ia: ʻoku mou angahiki ʻaupito, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Livai.”
8 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Kola, “ʻOku ou kole atu kiate kimoutolu ke mou fanongo mai, ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Livai:
9 Ko e meʻa vaʻinga koā ia kiate kimoutolu ʻae fakamavae ʻe he ʻOtua ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ke ofi ki heʻene ʻafio ke mou fai ʻae ngāue, ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova, pea ke tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ke ngāue kiate kinautolu?
10 Pea naʻa ne ʻomi koe ke ofi ki heʻene ʻafio, pea mo ho kāinga ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Livai fakataha mo koe: pea ʻoku mou kumi foki ʻae ngāue fakataulaʻeiki?
11 He ko hono ʻuhinga eni ʻo hoʻomou fakataha ʻa koe mo ho kakai kia Sihova: pea ko hai ʻa ʻElone, ʻoku mou lāunga ai kiate ia?”
12 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese ke ui ʻa Tatani mo ʻEpilami, ko e ongo foha ʻo ʻIliapi: ka naʻa na pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te ma ʻalu ange:
13 He ko e meʻa siʻi hoʻo ʻomi ʻakimautolu mei he fonua ʻoku pito ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi, ke tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he toafa, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke nofo koe ko e ʻeiki kiate kimautolu?
14 Ka kuo ʻikai te ke ʻomi ʻakimautolu ki ha fonua ʻoku pito ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi, pe tuku kiate kimautolu ha tofiʻa ʻi he ngoue mo e ngoue vaine: te ke kapeʻi koā ʻae mata ʻoe kau tangata ni? ʻE ʻikai te ma ʻalu ange.”
15 Pea naʻe tuputāmaki lahi ʻa Mōsese, ʻo ne pehē kia Sihova, “ʻOua naʻa ke ʻafio ki heʻenau feilaulau: naʻe ʻikai te u faʻao ha ʻasi ʻe taha meiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fakamamahiʻi ha taha ʻiate kinautolu.”
16 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kia Kola, “Ko koe mo ho kakai ke mou ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻapongipongi, ʻa koe, mo kinautolu, pea mo ʻElone:

19 Pea naʻe fakataha ʻe Kola ʻae kakai kotoa pē kiate kinaua ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ki he kakai kotoa pē.
20 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,
