1Ko e Saame akonaki ʻa ʻAsafi. ʻE ʻOtua, ko e hā kuo ke liʻaki ai ʻakimautolu ʻo taʻengata? Ko e hā ʻoku kohu ai ho houhau ki he fanga sipi ʻo hoʻo ngoue?
2Manatu ki he fakataha ʻo hoʻo kakai, ʻaia naʻa ke fakatau ʻi muʻa; ko e faʻahinga ʻo ho tofiʻa, ʻaia kuo ke huhuʻi; ʻae moʻunga ni ko Saione, ʻaia naʻa ke nofo ai.
3Hiki hake ho vaʻe ki hono ngaahi maumau kuo tuʻumaʻu pe; ʻio, ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo fai ʻi he angakovi ʻe he fili ʻi he faletapu.
4ʻOku ʻioho ʻa ho ngaahi fili ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo hoʻo ngaahi fakataha; ʻoku nau fokotuʻu ʻenau ngaahi fuka ko e ngaahi fakaʻilonga.
5Naʻe ongoongo ʻae tangata ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene faʻa fai ke hiki ki ʻolunga ʻae ngaahi toki ki he ngaahi ʻakau lahi.
6Ka ko eni, kuo nau maumauʻi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi toki mo e hamala ʻae ngaahi meʻa tongitongi kotoa pē.
7Kuo nau lī ʻae afi ki ho faletapu, kuo nau ʻuliʻi ʻae ʻafioʻanga ʻo ho huafa ʻo holoki hifo ia ki he kelekele.
8Naʻa nau pehē ʻi honau loto, “Ketau fakaʻauha fakataha ʻakinautolu:” kuo nau tutu ʻo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi falelotu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he fonua.
9ʻOku ʻikai temau kei mamata ki heʻemau ngaahi fakaʻilonga: ʻoku ʻikai ha palōfita ʻe toe: pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻiate kitautolu ʻoku ne ʻilo pe ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa.
10ʻE ʻOtua, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe lauʻikovi ʻae fili? ʻE kape ki ho huafa ʻe he fili ʻo taʻengata?
