Sione 1:6-17

⁶Naʻe ai ha tangata naʻe fekau mei he ʻOtua, ko Sione hono hingoa.

⁷Naʻe haʻu ia ko e fakamoʻoni, ke fakamoʻoni ki he Maama, koeʻuhi ke tui ʻiate ia ʻae kakai kotoa pē.

⁸Naʻe ʻikai ko e Maama ko ia ia, ka ko e fakamoʻoni ki he Maama ko ia.

⁹Ko e Maama moʻoni ia, ʻoku ne fakamaama ki he tangata kotoa pē ʻoku haʻu ki māmani.

¹⁰Naʻe ʻi māmani ia, pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe ia ʻa māmani, ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻe māmani.

¹¹Naʻe haʻu ia ki hono kakai, ka naʻe ʻikai maʻu ia ʻe hono kakai.

¹²Ka ko ia kotoa pē naʻe maʻu ia, naʻa ne foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae monūʻia ke hoko ko e fānau ʻae ʻOtua, kiate kinautolu pe naʻe tui ki hono huafa:

¹³‌ʻAia naʻe ʻikai fanauʻi ʻi he toto, pe ʻi he loto ʻoe kakano, pe ʻi he loto ʻoe tangata, ka ʻi he ʻOtua.

¹⁴Pea naʻe hoko ʻae Folofola ko e kakano, pea nofo ia ʻiate kitautolu, (pea naʻa mau mamata ki hono nāunau, ko e nāunau ʻoe tokotaha naʻe tupu mei he Tamai,) ʻoku fonu ʻi he ʻaloʻofa mo e moʻoni.

¹⁵Naʻe fakamoʻoni ki ai ʻe Sione, ʻo kalanga, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko eni ia naʻaku lea ai, Ko ia ʻoku haʻu muimui ʻiate au, ʻoku lahi ia ʻiate au: he naʻe muʻa ia ʻiate au.’

¹⁶Pea kuo maʻu ʻekitautolu kotoa pē mei hono fonu, mo e ʻaloʻofa ki he ʻaloʻofa.

¹⁷He naʻe foaki ʻae fono ʻia Mōsese, ka ko e ʻaloʻofa mo e moʻoni naʻe haʻu ʻia Sisu Kalaisi.
