Saame 37:11-36

¹¹Ka ko e angamalū tenau maʻu ʻae fonua; ʻonau fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi hono lahi ʻoe melino.

¹²‌ʻOku fakakaukau kovi ʻe he angahala ki he angatonu, mo ngaiʻi kiate ia ʻaki hono nifo.

¹³‌ʻE kata ʻa Sihova kiate ia: he ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi ʻoku haʻu hono ʻaho.

¹⁴Kuo unuhi ʻe he kau angakovi ʻae heletā, pea kuo nau teke ʻenau kaufana, ke lī ki lalo ʻae mamahi mo e paea, pea ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku angatotonu.

¹⁵‌ʻE ʻasi ʻenau heletā ki honau loto ʻonautolu, pea ʻe mafesi ʻenau ngaahi kaufana.

¹⁶‌ʻOku lelei lahi hake ʻae meʻa siʻi ʻoku ʻi he tangata māʻoniʻoni ʻi he koloa ʻoe tokolahi ʻoku angahala.

¹⁷Koeʻuhi ʻe fesiʻi ʻae nima ʻoe kau angahala: ka ʻoku poupou ʻe Sihova ʻae māʻoniʻoni.

¹⁸‌ʻOku ʻiloʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe kakai angatonu: pea ko honau tofiʻa ʻe tolonga taʻengata.

¹⁹‌ʻE ʻikai te nau mā ʻi he kuonga kovi, pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe honge tenau mākona.

²⁰Ka ʻe ʻauha ʻae angakovi, pea ʻe tatau ʻae ngaahi fili ʻo Sihova mo e ngako ʻoe fanga lami: ʻe ʻauha ʻakinautolu; ʻi he kohu tenau mole ʻo ʻosi.

²¹‌ʻOku nō ʻae angakovi, pea ʻikai toe totongi: ka ʻoku fakahā ʻae ʻofa ʻe he māʻoniʻoni, ʻo foaki.

²²He ko kinautolu kuo tāpuekina ʻiate ia tenau maʻu ʻae fonua; pea ko kinautolu kuo malaʻia ʻiate ia ʻe motuhi.

²³‌ʻOku fakahinohino ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi laka ʻae tangata lelei: pea ʻoku fiemālie ia ʻi hono hala.

²⁴Neongo ʻene tō ki lalo, ʻe ʻikai ʻauha ia: he ʻoku poupou hake ia ʻe he nima ʻo Sihova.

²⁵Naʻaku talavou, pea kuo u motuʻa; ka ʻoku teʻeki te u ʻilo ʻae māʻoniʻoni kuo liʻaki, pe ko hono hako ʻoku kole mā.

²⁶‌ʻOku angaʻofa maʻuaipē ia, pea faʻa ʻatu; pea ʻoku monūʻia hono hako.

²⁷Afe mei he kovi, pea ke fai lelei, pea nofomaʻu pē ʻo taʻengata.

²⁸He ʻoku ʻofa ʻa Sihova ki he fakamaau, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne liʻaki hono kakai māʻoniʻoni; kuo fakamoʻui maʻuaipē ʻakinautolu: ka ʻe motuhi ʻae hako ʻoe angakovi.

²⁹‌ʻE maʻu ʻe he māʻoniʻoni ʻa e fonua, pea tenau nofo ai ʻo taʻengata.

³⁰Ko e ngutu ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ʻoku ne lea ʻaki ʻae poto, pea talanoa ʻaki hono ʻelelo ʻae fakamaau.

³¹‌ʻOku ʻi hono loto ʻae fono ʻa hono ʻOtua; ʻe ʻikai hekea ia ʻi haʻane laka ʻe taha.

³²‌ʻOku lamasi ʻe he angakovi ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ʻo kumi ke fakapoongi ia.

³³‌ʻE ʻikai tukuange ia ʻe Sihova ʻi hono nima, pe tukuakiʻi ia ʻi hono fakamaauʻi.

³⁴Tatali kia Sihova, pea tauhi hono hala, pea te ne hakeakiʻi koe ke maʻu ʻae fonua: pea ka ʻosi hono motuhi ʻae kakai angakovi, te ke mamata ki ai.

³⁵Naʻaku mamata ki he angakovi kuo mālohi lahi, pea mafola ia ʻo hangē ko e ʻakau maʻuiʻui ʻoku tupu ʻi hono potu ʻoʻona.

³⁶Ka naʻe mole atu ia, pea vakai, kuo ʻikai ia: ʻio, ne u kumi ia, ka naʻe ʻikai faʻa ʻiloʻi ia.
