4 Pea naʻe ʻomi foki ʻe ʻEpeli, ʻae veloaki mo ia naʻe ngako ʻi heʻene fanga manu. Pea naʻe leleiʻia ʻa Sihova kia ʻEpeli mo ʻene feilaulau:
5 Ka naʻe ʻikai te ne leleiʻia kia Keini mo ʻene feilaulau. Pea naʻe ʻita ʻaupito ʻa Keini, pea kehe hono mata.
6 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Keini, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke ʻita ai? Pea ko e hā ʻoku kehe ai ho mata?
7 Kapau te ke fai lelei, ʻikai ʻe maʻu koe? Pea ka ʻikai te ke fai lelei, ʻoku ʻi he matapā ʻae angahala. Pea ʻe anganofo ia kiate koe, pea te ke pule kiate ia.”
8 Pea naʻe alea ʻa ʻEpeli mo hono tokoua: pea lolotonga ʻena ʻi he ngoue, naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Keini ki hono tehina ko ʻEpeli, ʻone tāmateʻi ia.
9 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Keini, “Ko e fē ʻa ʻEpeli ko ho tehina?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo: he ko e tauhi au ʻa hoku tokoua?”
10 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā eni kuo ke fai? ʻOku tangi kiate au mei he kelekele ʻae leʻo ʻoe toto ʻo ho tehina.
11 Pea ko eni, kuo fakamalaʻia koe mei he kelekele, ʻaia kuo fakamanga hono ngutu ke maʻu mei ho nima ʻae toto ʻoho tehina;
12 ʻoka ke ka ngoueʻi ʻae kelekele, ʻe ʻikai tupu lelei kiate koe ʻa hono fua; te ke hoko ko e fehēhēʻaki mo e hehengi ʻi he fonua.”
13 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Keini kia Sihova, “ʻOku lahi hake ʻa hoku tautea ʻi heʻeku faʻa kātaki.
14 Vakai, kuo ke kapusi au ʻi he ʻaho ni mei he funga ʻoe fonua; pea ʻe fufū au mei ho fofonga; pea teu fehēhēʻaki mo hehengi ʻi he fonua; pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiloʻi au ʻe tāmateʻi au.”
15 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kiate ia, “Ko ia ia ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ʻa Keini, ʻe tō kiate ia ʻae tautea ʻo liunga fitu.” Pea naʻe ʻai ʻe Sihova ʻae fakaʻilonga kia Keini, telia naʻa ʻilo ia ʻe ha taha, pea tāmateʻi ia.
16 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Keini mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke nofo ʻi he fonua ko Noti, ʻi he potu hahake ʻo ʻIteni.
