Sione 3:13-36

¹³Pea ʻoku teʻeki ai ʻalu hake ha tangata ki he langi, ka ko ia pe naʻe ʻalu hifo mei he langi, ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he langi.”

¹⁴Pea hangē naʻe hiki hake ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngata ʻi he toafa, ʻe pehē hono hiki ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki ʻolunga:

¹⁵Koeʻuhi ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku tui kiate ia ke ʻoua naʻa ʻauha ia, kae maʻu ʻae moʻui taʻengata.

¹⁶He naʻe ʻofa pehē ʻae ʻOtua ki māmani, naʻa ne foaki hono ʻAlo pe taha naʻe fakatupu, koeʻuhi ko ia kotoa pē ʻe tui kiate ia ke ʻoua naʻa ʻauha, kae maʻu ʻae moʻui taʻengata.

¹⁷He naʻe ʻikai fekau ʻe he ʻOtua hono ʻAlo ki māmani ke fakamalaʻia ʻa māmani: ka koeʻuhi ke moʻui ʻa māmani ʻiate ia.

¹⁸Ko ia ʻoku tui kiate ia, ʻoku ʻikai fakamalaʻia ia: ka ko ia ʻoku ʻikai tui, ʻoku fakamalaʻia ni ia, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai tui ia ʻi he huafa ʻoe ʻAlo pe taha naʻe tupu ʻi he ʻOtua.

¹⁹Pea ko e malaʻiaʻanga eni, koeʻuhi kuo haʻu ʻae maama ki māmani, pea ʻofa lahi ʻae kakai ki he poʻuli ʻi he maama, koeʻuhi ʻoku kovi ʻenau ngaahi ngāue.

²⁰He ko ia fulipē ʻoku fai kovi ʻoku fehiʻa ki he maama, pea ʻoku ʻikai haʻu ia ki he maama, telia naʻa fakahā ai ʻene ngaahi ngāue.

²¹Ka ko ia ʻoku fai ki he moʻoni, ʻoku haʻu ia ki he maama, koeʻuhi ke fakahā ai ʻene ngaahi ngāue, ʻoku fai ia ʻi he ʻOtua.

²²Pea hili eni, naʻe haʻu ʻa Sisu mo ʻene kau ākonga ki he fonua ko Siutea; pea nofo ai mo kinautolu, ʻo fai papitaiso.

²³Pea naʻe fai papitaiso ʻa Sione foki ʻi ʻEnoni ʻo ofi ki Selemi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻi ai ʻae vai lahi: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai, ʻo papitaiso.

²⁴He naʻe teʻeki ai ʻave ʻa Sione ki he fale fakapōpula.

²⁵Pea naʻe kikihi ʻae kau ākonga ʻa Sione mo e kau Siu ki he fakamaʻa.

²⁶Pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Sione ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Lāpai, ko ia ia naʻe ʻiate koe ʻituʻa Sioatani, ʻaia naʻa ke fakamoʻoni ki ai, vakai, ʻoku fai papitaiso ʻe ia, pea ʻoku ʻalu ange ʻae kakai kotoa pē kiate ia.”

²⁷Pea leaange ʻa Sione, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai faʻa maʻu ʻe ha tangata ha meʻa, ka ʻi hono foaki ia kiate ia mei he langi.

²⁸‌ʻOku mou fakamoʻoni kiate au naʻaku pehē, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ko e Kalaisi au, ka kuo fekau au ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia.’

²⁹Ko ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae taʻahine, ko e tangata taʻane ia: ka ko e kāinga ʻoe tangata taʻane ʻoku tuʻu ʻo fanongo kiate ia, ʻoku fiefia lahi ia ko e meʻa ʻi he leʻo ʻoe tangata taʻane: ko ia ko ʻeku fiefia ni kuo kakato.

³⁰‌ʻE fakaʻaʻau ia ki muʻa, ka te u fakaʻaʻau au ki mui.”

³¹Ko ia ʻoku haʻu mei ʻolunga, ʻoku māʻolunga taha pe ia: ko ia ʻoku mei he māmani, ʻoku fakamaama ia, pea ʻoku lea ia ki he māmani: ko ia ʻoku haʻu mei he langi, ʻoku māʻolunga taha pe ia.

³²Pea ko e meʻa kuo ne mamata mo ongoʻi, ko ia ʻoku ne fakamoʻoni ki ai; ka ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻe ha tangata ʻene fakamoʻoni.

³³Ko ia kuo ne tui ki heʻene fakamoʻoni, kuo ne ʻai ki ai hono fakaʻilonga ʻoku moʻoni ʻae ʻOtua.

³⁴He ko ia kuo fekau ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻoku ne lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea ʻae ʻOtua: he ʻoku ʻikai tuku fuofua ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae Laumālie kiate ia.

³⁵‌ʻOku ʻofa ʻae Tamai ki he ʻAlo, pea kuo ne tuku ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ki hono nima.

³⁶Ko ia ʻoku tui ki he ʻAlo, ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae moʻui taʻengata: pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai tui ki he ʻAlo, ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki he moʻui; ka ʻoku nofo pe kiate ia ʻae houhau ʻoe ʻOtua.
