¹Ke tuʻumaʻu pe ʻae feʻofoʻofani fakakāinga.

²‌ʻOua naʻa ngalo ke fakaafe ʻae kakai muli: he kuo fakaafe ai ʻe he niʻihi ʻae kau ʻāngelo ʻi he taʻeʻilo.

³Manatuʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku moʻua ʻi he haʻi, ʻo hangē kuo haʻisia mo kimoutolu; mo kinautolu ʻoku ngaohikoviʻi, ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou kei ʻi he sino foki.

⁴Ko e fakamaʻu mali mo e mohenga taʻeʻuliʻi, ʻoku lelei ia ki he kakai kotoa pē, ka koe kau feʻauaki mo e kau tono fefine ʻe fakamaau ʻe he ʻOtua.

⁵Ke taʻemanumanu hoʻomou ʻulungāanga; pea mou fiemālie ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku mou maʻu: he kuo pehē mai ʻe ia, “E ʻikai te u liʻaki koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻiate koe.”

⁶Ko ia ʻoku tau lea mālohi ai, “Ko hoku tokoni ʻae ʻEiki pea ʻe ʻikai te u manavahē ki ha meʻa ʻe fai ʻe he tangata kiate au.”

⁷Manatuʻi ʻa homou kau fakahinohino, ʻakinautolu naʻe leaʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu, pea faʻifaʻitaki ki heʻenau tui, ʻo fakatokanga ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻenau ʻulungāanga.

⁸Ko Sisu Kalaisi ʻoku tatau ʻi he ʻaneafi, mo e ʻaho ni, pea taʻengata.

⁹Ke ʻoua naʻa feʻaveʻaki fano ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ngaahi akonaki ʻoku kehekehe hono anga mo foʻou. He ko e meʻa lelei ke tuʻumaʻu ʻae loto ʻi he ʻofa; ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi meʻakai, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ʻaonga kiate kinautolu naʻe moʻua ki ai.

¹⁰‌ʻOku ai ʻetau ʻesifeilaulau, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke kai mei ai ʻekinautolu ʻoku tauhi ʻi he fale fehikitaki.

¹¹Kaeʻumaʻā ia, ʻoku tutu ʻi tuaʻā kolo ʻae sino ʻoe fanga manu ko ia, ʻaia ʻoku ʻomi honau toto ʻe he taulaʻeiki lahi ki he potu tapu, koeʻuhi ko e angahala.

¹²Ko ia naʻe mamahi foki ʻa Sisu, ʻi he tuaʻā kolo, koeʻuhi ke ne fakamāʻoniʻoni ʻae kakai ʻaki hono taʻataʻa ʻoʻona.

¹³Ko ia ke tau ʻalu atu kiate ia kituaʻā kolo, ʻo fua hono manuki.

¹⁴He ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻekitautolu ʻi heni ha kolo ʻe tuʻumaʻu, ka ʻoku tau kumi ki ha taha ʻe hoko.

¹⁵Ko ia ke tau ʻatu ʻiate ia ʻae feilaulau ʻoe fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua ʻo maʻuaipē, ʻaia ko e fua ʻoe loungutu ʻoka atu ai ʻae fakafetaʻi ki hono huafa.

¹⁶Ka ko e fai lelei, mo e foaki, ke ʻoua naʻa ngalo: he ko e ngaahi feilaulau pehē ʻoku leleiʻia ai ʻae ʻOtua.

¹⁷Mou talangofua kiate kinautolu ʻoku fakahinohino ʻakimoutolu, pea mou fakavaivai: he ʻoku nau leʻohi homou laumālie, he te nau fakamatala ki ai, pea koeʻuhi ke nau fai ia ʻi he fiefia, kaeʻoua naʻa ʻi he mamahi: he ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ia kiate kimoutolu.

¹⁸Hūfia ʻakimautolu: he ʻoku mau ʻilo kuo ʻiate kimautolu ʻae ʻatamai lelei, pea ʻoku mau loto ke moʻui angatonu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē.

¹⁹Ka ʻoku ou kole ke mou tokanga lahi ki ai, koeʻuhi ke tuku au ke vave kiate kimoutolu.

²⁰Ko eni, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe monūʻia, naʻa ne toe ʻomi mei he pekia ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu, ko e tauhi lahi ʻoe fanga sipi ʻi he taʻataʻa ʻoe fuakava taʻengata.

²¹‌ʻOfa ke ne ngaohi ʻakimoutolu ke mou haohaoa ʻi he ngaue lelei kotoa pē, ke fai hono finangalo, ʻo ne fai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi hono ʻao, ʻia Sisu Kalaisi; ke ʻiate ia ʻae ongoongolelei ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni.

²²Pea ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, mou tali ʻae lea ʻoe akonaki ni: he kuo u tohi ʻae tohi kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi lea siʻi pe.

²³‌ʻOku mou ʻilo kuo mamaʻo atu hotau kāinga ko Timote; ʻa ia, ka vave ʻene haʻu, te ma mamata mo ia kiate kimoutolu.

²⁴‌ʻOfa atu kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fakahinohino ʻakimoutolu, mo e kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē. ʻOku ʻofa atu kiate kimoutolu kotoa ʻakinautolu ʻi ʻItali.

²⁵Ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae ʻaloʻofa. ʻEmeni.
