¹Pea naʻe hā mai ʻae meʻa fakaofo lahi ʻi he langi; ko e fefine kuo kofuʻaki ʻae laʻā, pea ʻi hono lalo vaʻe ʻae māhina, pea naʻe ʻi hono ʻulu ʻae pale ʻoe fetuʻu ʻe hongofulu ma ua:

²Pea naʻe feitama ia pea tangi, ʻo langā, pea mamahi ke fānau.

³Pea naʻe hā mai mo e meʻa fakaofo ʻe taha ʻi he langi; pea vakai, ko e fuʻu ngata lahi naʻe kulokula, kuo fitu hono ʻulu, pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae nifo ʻe hongofulu, pea fitu ʻae pale ʻi hono ngaahi ʻulu.

⁴Pea naʻe toho ʻaki ʻe hono iku hono tolu ʻoe vahe ʻoe ngaahi fetuʻu ʻo e langi, ʻo ne lī hifo ʻakinautolu ki he fonua: pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae fuʻu ngata ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fefine naʻe teu ke fānau, koeʻuhi, ka fanauʻi leva ʻene tamasiʻi, ke ne kai ʻo ʻosi ia.

⁵Pea ne fanauʻi ʻae tamasiʻi tangata, ʻaia te ne puleʻi ʻae puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae vaʻa ukamea: pea naʻe toʻo hake ʻene tamasiʻi ki he ʻOtua, pea ki hono nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki.

⁶Pea naʻe hola ʻae fefine ki he toafa, ʻaia ʻoku ai hono potu kuo teu ʻe he ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke nau fafanga ia ʻi ai ko e ʻaho ʻe taha afe ma uangeau ma onongofulu.

⁷Pea naʻe fai ʻa ʻetau ʻi he langi: ko Maikeli mo ʻene kau ʻāngelo naʻa nau tauʻi ʻae fuʻu ngata; pea naʻe tau ʻae fuʻu ngata mo ʻene kau ʻāngelo.

⁸Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ikuna; pea naʻe ʻikai kei ʻilo hanau potu ʻi he langi.

⁹Pea naʻe lī kituʻa ʻae fuʻu ngata lahi, ʻae ngata motuʻa ko ia, ʻoku ui ko Tēvolo, mo Sētane, ʻaia ʻoku ne kākaaʻi ʻa māmani kotoa pē: naʻe lī ia kituʻa ki he fonua, pea naʻe lī kituʻa mo ia ʻa ʻene kau ʻāngelo.

¹⁰Pea ne u ongoʻi ʻae leʻo lahi ʻi he langi, naʻe pehē, “Ko eni kuo hoko mai ʻae fakamoʻui, mo e mālohi, mo e puleʻanga ʻo hotau ʻOtua, mo e mālohi ʻo hono Kalaisi: he kuo lī ki lalo ʻae fakakovi ʻo hotau kāinga, ʻaia naʻa ne fakakoviʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo hotau ʻOtua ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō.

¹¹Pea naʻa nau ikuna ia ʻaki ʻae taʻataʻa ʻoe Lami, mo e lea ʻo ʻenau fakamoʻoni; pea naʻe ʻikai te nau mamae ki heʻenau moʻui ka nau mate.

¹²Ko ia ke fiefia, ʻae ngaahi langi, mo kimoutolu ʻoku nofo ai. ʻE malaʻia ʻae kakai ʻoku nofo ʻi he maama na mo e tahi! He kuo ʻalu hifo ʻae tēvolo kiate kimoutolu, kuo ʻita lahi, koeʻuhi ʻoku ne ʻilo ʻoku fuoloa siʻi pe hono kuonga.”

¹³Pea ʻi he mamata ʻe he fuʻu ngata kuo lī ia ki he māmani, naʻa ne fakatangaʻi ʻae fefine ne ne fanauʻi ʻae tamasiʻi tangata.

¹⁴Pea naʻe foaki ki he fefine ʻae kapakau ʻe ua ʻoe ʻikale lahi, ke ne puna ʻaki ia ki he toafa, ki hono potu, ʻaia ʻoku tauhi ai ia ʻi ha kuonga, mo e ngaahi kuonga, mo e vaeua mālieʻanga ʻoe kuonga, mei he ʻao ʻoe ngata.

¹⁵Pea naʻe puʻaki ʻe he ngata ki he fefine ʻae vai mei hono ngutu ʻo hangē ha vaitafe, koeʻuhi ke ne fai ke ʻauhia ia ʻi he vai.

¹⁶Pea naʻe tokoniʻi ʻae fefine ʻe he fonua, pea matoʻo ʻe he fonua hono ngutu, ʻo ne folo hifo ʻae vai, ʻaia naʻe puʻaki ʻe he fuʻu ngata mei hono ngutu.

¹⁷Pea naʻe ʻita ʻae fuʻu ngata ki he fefine, ʻo ne ʻalu ke tauʻi hono toe ʻo hono hako, ʻakinautolu ʻoku fai ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻae ʻOtua, pea maʻu mo e fakamoʻoni ʻo Sisu Kalaisi.
