19 Pea haʻu ʻae kau Siu tokolahi kia Māʻata mo Mele, ke fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinaua koeʻuhi ko hona tuongaʻane.
20 Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻe Māʻata ʻoku haʻu ʻa Sisu, naʻa ne ʻalu ʻo fakafetaulaki kiate ia: ka naʻe nofo pe ʻa Mele ʻi he fale.
21 Pea lea ai ʻa Māʻata kia Sisu, ʻEiki, ka ne ke ʻi heni, pehē, ne ʻikai mate hoku tuongaʻane.
22 Ka ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻa eni, ko ia kotoa pē te ke kolea ki he ʻOtua, ʻe foaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate koe.”

24 Pea tala ʻe Māʻata kiate ia, “ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻe toetuʻu ia ʻi he toetuʻu ʻi he ʻaho fakamui.”
25 Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko au ko e toetuʻu, mo e moʻui: ko ia ʻoku tui kiate au, ka ne mate ia, ʻe moʻui pe ia:
26 Pea ko ia ʻoku moʻui mo tui kiate au, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito mate ia. ʻOku ke tui ki ai?”
27 Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻIo, ʻEiki: ʻoku ou tui ko e Kalaisi ʻa koe, ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe totonu ke haʻu ki māmani.”
28 Pea hili ʻene lea ko ia, naʻe ʻalu ia, ʻo ne ui fakafufū hono tehina ko Mele, ʻo ne pehē, Kuo haʻu ʻae Akonaki, pea ʻoku fehuʻi kiate koe.”
29 Pea ʻi heʻene ongoʻi ia, naʻa ne tuʻu hake leva, ʻo haʻu kiate ia.
30 Pea kuo teʻeki hoko ʻa Sisu ki he kolo, ka naʻe ʻi he potu ko ia naʻe fakafetaulaki ai ʻa Māʻata kiate ia.
31 Pea ko e kau Siu naʻe ʻiate ia ʻi he fale, ʻonau fakafiemālieʻi ia, ʻi heʻenau vakai ʻoku tuʻu fakavave ʻa Mele, ʻo ʻalu kituʻa, naʻa nau muimui ai, ʻonau pehē, ʻOku ʻalu ia ki he faʻitoka ke tangi ai.
32 Pea kuo ʻalu ange ʻa Mele ki he potu ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne mamata ki ai, pea tōmapeʻe ia ki hono vaʻe, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ka ne ke ʻi heni, pehē, ne ʻikai mate hoku tuongaʻane.”
33 Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Sisu kiate ia ʻoku tangi, pea tangi foki mo e kakai Siu naʻe haʻu mo ia, pea toʻe ia ʻi he laumālie, pea mamahi ia,
34 ʻO ne pehē, “Kuo mou tuku ʻi fē ia? Pea nau tala kiate ia, ʻEiki, haʻu ʻo mamata.”
35 Pea tangi ʻa Sisu.
36 Pea lea ai ʻae kau Siu, “Vakai ki hono lahi ʻo ʻene ʻofa kiate ia.”
