Saame 78:3-15

³‌ʻAia kuo tau fanongo ki ai pea ʻiloʻi, pea naʻe tala ia kiate kitautolu ʻe heʻetau ngaahi tamai.

⁴‌ʻE ʻikai te tau fufū ia mei heʻenau fānau, ka ʻe fakahā ki he toʻutangata ʻe hoko ʻae ongoongolelei ʻo Sihova, mo hono mālohi, mo e ngaahi ngāue mana naʻa ne fai.

⁵He naʻa ne fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae fono ʻia Sēkope, ʻo ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻae akonaki ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻa ne fekauʻi ʻetau ngaahi tamai, koeʻuhi ke nau fakaʻilo ia ki heʻenau fānau:

⁶Koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ia ʻe he toʻutangata ʻe hoko, ʻio, ʻae fānau ʻe fanauʻi; ʻaia tenau tupu hake ʻo fakahā ia ki heʻenau fānau:

⁷Koeʻuhi kenau ʻamanaki lelei maʻuaipē ki he ʻOtua, pea ʻoua naʻa fakangalongaloʻi ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻae ʻOtua, ka e tauhi ʻene ngaahi fekau:

⁸Kaeʻoua naʻa tatau mo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ko e toʻutangata paongataʻa mo angatuʻu; ko e toʻutangata naʻe ʻikai tenau teuteu honau loto ke lelei, pea naʻe ʻikai tuʻumaʻu honau laumālie ʻi he ʻOtua.

⁹Ko e fānau ʻa ʻIfalemi naʻe toʻo mahafutau, mo e ngaahi kaufana, naʻa nau hola ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe tau.

¹⁰Naʻe ʻikai tenau fai ki he fuakava ʻae ʻOtua, pea naʻe ʻikai siʻi tenau loto ke ʻaʻeva ʻi heʻene akonaki;

¹¹Pea naʻa nau fakangalongaloʻi ʻene ngaahi ngāue, mo ʻene ngaahi mana naʻa ne fakahā kiate kinautolu.

¹²Naʻa ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakaofo ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi he ngoue ʻo Soani.

¹³Naʻe vaeua ʻe ia ʻae tahi, pea ne pule kenau ʻalu atu ai; pea ne ngaohi ʻae tahi ke tuʻu fakatafungofunga pē.

¹⁴Naʻa ne tataki foki ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻaki ʻae ʻao, pea ʻi he pō ʻaki ʻae maama ʻoe afi.

¹⁵Naʻe fahiʻi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi makatuʻu ʻi he toafa, pea ʻange ʻae inu kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ʻoku mei he loloto lahi.
