Saame 18:13-34

¹³Naʻe mana foki ʻe Sihova ʻi he ngaahi langi, pea fakahā hono leʻo ʻe he Fungani Māʻolunga; ko e ʻuha maka mo e ngaahi malalaʻi afi.

¹⁴‌ʻIo, naʻa ne fana atu ʻene ngaahi ngahau, pea veteki ʻakinautolu; pea ne fana ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻuhila, ʻo veuveuki ʻakinautolu.

¹⁵Naʻe toki hā ai ʻae ngaahi tafeʻanga ʻoe vai, pea fakahā ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani ʻi ho houhau, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he matangi ʻoe mānava ʻo ho houhau.

¹⁶Naʻa ne fekau mei ʻolunga, naʻa ne toʻo au, naʻa ne toʻo hake au mei he ngaahi vai lahi.

¹⁷Naʻa ne fakahaofi au mei hoku fili

¹⁸Naʻa nau fakatangaʻi au ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku tuʻutāmaki: ka ko hoku tokoni ʻa Sihova.

¹⁹Naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he potu ʻataʻatā lahi; naʻa ne fakahaofi au, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fiemālie ʻiate au.

²⁰Naʻe totongi ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻo fakatatau ki heʻeku māʻoniʻoni; ʻo fakatatau ki he maʻa ʻa hoku nima kuo ne totongi kiate au.

²¹He naʻaku tauhi ʻae ngaahi hala ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻi he angakovi mei hoku ʻOtua.

²²He naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa ʻene ngaahi fakamaau kotoa pē, pea naʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻene ngaahi fekau ʻiate au.

²³Pea naʻaku angatonu foki ʻi hono ʻao, pea ne u taʻofi au mei heʻeku hia.

²⁴Ko ia kuo totongi ai au ʻe Sihova ʻo fakatatau ki heʻeku māʻoniʻoni, pea fakatatau ki he maʻa ʻa hoku nima ʻi hono ʻao.

²⁵‌ʻI he kakai loto ʻofa te ke fakahā koe ko e ʻaloʻofa; ki he tangata angatonu te ke fakahā koe ko e angatonu;

²⁶Ki he māʻoniʻoni te ke fakahā koe ʻae māʻoniʻoni; pea ki he tangata angatuʻu temo fekuki mo ia.

²⁷He ko koe te ke fakamoʻui ʻae kakai mamahi: ka te ke ʻohifo ki lalo ʻae mata fielahi.

²⁸Pea te ke tutu ʻeku maama: ʻo huluʻaki ʻeku fakapoʻuli ʻe Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua.

²⁹He ko e meʻa ʻiate koe naʻaku halaua ʻae tau ʻo hao; pea ʻi hoku ʻOtua ne u puna kituʻa ʻi he ʻā maka.

³⁰Pea ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku haohaoa hono hala: ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova: ko e fakaū ia kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku falala kiate ia.

³¹He ko hai ʻoku ʻOtua ka ko Sihova pē? Pe ko hai ʻae makatuʻu ka ko hotau ʻOtua pē?

³²Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoku ne nonoʻo ʻaki au ʻae mālohi, ʻo fakahaohaoa hoku ʻaluʻanga.

³³‌ʻOku ne ngaohi hoku vaʻe ke hangē ko e vaʻe ʻoe hainiti, ʻo ne fokotuʻu au ki hoku ngaahi potu māʻolunga.

³⁴‌ʻOku ne akonakiʻi hoku nima ke tau, ko ia ʻoku fesiʻi ai ʻe hoku nima ʻae kaufana ukamea.
