1 Kolinitō 5

1 ‌ʻOku fakaongo lahi mai ʻoku ai ʻae feʻauaki ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ko e feʻauaki pehē ʻoku ʻikai siʻi lau ki ai ʻi he kakai Senitaile, ʻo pehē ke maʻu ʻe ha taha ʻae uaifi ʻo ʻene tamai.

2 Pea ʻoku mou anga fakafiefielahi, kae ʻikai te mou mamahi muʻa, koeʻuhi ko ia kuo ne fai ʻae meʻa ni, ke tukuange ia ʻiate kimoutolu.

3 He ko e moʻoni, ko au ʻoku ou mamaʻo ʻi he sino, ka ʻoku ou ʻi ai ʻi he laumālie, kuo u fakamaauʻi ʻaia naʻe fai ʻae ngāue ni, ʻo hangē kuo u ʻi ai,

4 ‌ʻI hoʻomou fakataha ʻi he huafa ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, mo hoku laumālie, mo e mālohi ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.

5 Ke tukuange ʻae tokotaha pehē kia Sētane ke maumau ai ʻae sino, kae fakamoʻui ʻae laumālie ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.

6 Ko hoʻomou vikiviki ʻoku ʻikai lelei. ʻIkai ʻoku mou ʻilo “Ko e meʻa fakatupu siʻi ʻoku ne fakatupuʻi ʻae takaonga kotoa?”

7 Ko ia ke tafi kituʻa ʻae meʻa fakatupu motuʻa, koeʻuhi ʻi he ʻikai ha meʻa fakatupu ʻiate kimoutolu, ke mou hoko ko e takaonga foʻou. He ko Kalaisi ko ho tau [feilaulau ʻoe ]Lakaatu, kuo hifo ʻaki maʻatautolu.

8 Ko ia ke tau fai ʻae kātoanga, kae ʻikai ʻi he meʻa fakatupu motuʻa, pe ʻi he ʻi meʻa fakatupu ʻoe fakafasifasi mo e angahala; ka ʻi he [mā ]taʻemeʻafakatupu ʻoe angatonu mo e moʻoni.

9 Kuo u tohi ʻi he tohi kiate kimoutolu, ke ʻoua naʻa mou fakataha mo e kau feʻauaki:

10 Ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e pehē pe, ki he kau feʻauaki ʻoe māmani, pe ko e kau manumanu, pe ko e kau fakamālohi, pe ko e kau tauhi tamapua; he ka ne pehē, tā te mou ʻalu pe ʻi he māmani.

11 Ka kuo u tohi eni kiate kimoutolu, ka ai ha taha ʻoku ui ko e kāinga, ka ʻoku feʻauaki, pe manumanu, pe tauhi tamapua, pe ko e manuki, pe ko e kona, pe ko e fakamālohi; ʻoua naʻa fakataha mo ha taha pehē, pea ʻoua naʻa kai mo ia.

12 He ko hai au ke u fakamaau ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi tuaʻā? ʻIkai ʻoku mou fakamaau ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi lotoʻā pe?

13 Ka ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻi tuaʻā ʻoku fakamaauʻi ʻe he ʻOtua. Ko ia ke “tukuange ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae tangata angahala ko ia.”
