Sione 13:17-31

¹⁷‌ʻOku mou monūʻia ʻi hoʻomou ʻilo ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻo kapau te mou fai ki ai.

¹⁸“ʻOku ʻikai kau ʻeku lea kiate kimoutolu kotoa pē: ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻaia kuo u fili: ka koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ʻae tohi, ‘Ko ia ʻoku kai mā mo au, kuo hiki hono vaʻe kiate au.’

¹⁹Pea ko eni ʻoku ou tala ia kiate kimoutolu ʻi he teʻeki ai hoko, koeʻuhi ʻoka hoko ia, ke mou tui ‘ko au ia.’

²⁰Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau, ʻoku ne maʻu au; pea ko ia ʻoku ne maʻu au, ʻoku ne maʻu ʻaia naʻa ne fekauʻi au.”

²¹Pea hili ʻae lea ko ia ʻa Sisu, pea mamahi ia ʻi hono laumālie, ʻo ne fakahā, ʻo pehē, Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, “ʻE lavakiʻi au ʻe homou tokotaha.”

²²Pea fesiofaki ʻae kau ākonga kiate kinautolu, ʻonau fifili pe ko ʻene lea kia hai.

²³Pea naʻe faʻaki ki he fatafata ʻo Sisu ʻene ākonga ʻe tokotaha, naʻe ʻofa ai ʻa Sisu.

²⁴Ko ia naʻe kamokamo ai ʻe Saimone Pita kiate ia, koeʻuhi ke ne fehuʻi pe ko hai ia kuo ne lea ki ai.

²⁵Pea lea falala ʻe ia ki he fatafata ʻo Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ko hai ia?”

²⁶Pea talaange ʻe Sisu, “Ko ia ia te u ʻatu ki ai ʻae konga mā hili ʻeku peke ia.” Pea hili ʻene peke ʻae konga, ne ne ʻatu ia kia Siutasi ʻIsikaliote, ko e foha ʻo Saimone.

²⁷Pea hili ʻae peke, pea hū ʻa Sētane kiate ia. Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko ia ʻoku ke fai, fai vave.”

²⁸Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe ha tokotaha ʻi he keinangaʻanga pe ko e hā ʻoku pehē ai ʻene lea kiate ia.

²⁹He naʻe mahalo ʻae niʻihi, ko e meʻa ʻi he maʻu ʻe Siutasi ʻae kato, naʻe tala ʻe Sisu kiate ia, Fakatau ʻaia ʻoku tau masiva ai ki he kātoanga; pe, koeʻuhi ke ne foaki ha meʻa ki he masiva.

³⁰Pea maʻu ʻe ia ʻae peke, ʻo ʻalu leva kituaʻā: pea kuo poʻuli.

³¹Pea kuo ʻalu ia kituaʻā, pea lea ʻa Sisu, “Ko eni kuo fakaongoongolelei ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata, pea ʻoku fakaongoongolelei ʻae ʻOtua ʻiate ia.
