Sione 8:48-53

⁴⁸Pea leaange ʻae kakai Siu, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻIkai ʻoku moʻoni ʻemau pehē, Ko e Samēlia koe, pea ʻoku ʻiate koe ha tēvolo?”

⁴⁹Pea talaange ʻe Sisu, “ʻOku ʻikai ha tēvolo ʻiate au; ka ʻoku ou fakaʻapaʻapa ki heʻeku Tamai, pea ʻoku mou fakalieliaʻi au.

⁵⁰Pea ʻoku ʻikai teu kumi ʻae ongoongolelei ʻo ʻoku: ʻoku ai ha tokotaha ʻoku ne kumiʻi mo fakamaauʻi.

⁵¹Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, Kapau ʻe fai ʻe ha tangata ki heʻeku lea, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito mamata ia ki he mate.”

⁵²Pea lea ai ʻae kakai Siu kiate ia, “Ta ʻoku mau ʻilo ʻeni ʻoku ʻiate koe ha tēvolo. Kuo mate ʻa ʻEpalahame, mo e kau palōfita; ka ʻoku ke pehē, Kapau ʻe fai ʻe ha tangata ki heʻeku lea, ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ne kamata ʻae mate.

⁵³‌ʻOku ke lahi koe ki heʻemau tamai ko ʻEpalahame, ʻaia kuo mate? Pea, mate mo e kau palōfita: ʻoku ke pehē ko hai koe?”
