< Kaletia 3 >
1 ʻAe kau Kalētia vale, ko hai kuo ne fakamatavalea ʻakimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa mou talangofua ki he moʻoni, ʻakimoutolu naʻe fakahā tautonu ʻi homou ʻao ʻa Sisu Kalaisi mo hono tutuki ki he ʻakau?
2 Ko e meʻa ni pe ʻoku ou fie ʻilo ʻiate kimoutolu, naʻa mou maʻu ʻae Laumālie ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻoe fono, pe ʻi he fanongo ʻi he tui?
3 ʻOku pehē koā hoʻomou vale? Kuo mou kamata ʻi he Laumālie, pea kuo fakahaohaoa eni ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kakano?
4 Kuo mou kātaki taʻeʻaonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi? ʻO kapau ʻoku kei taʻeʻaonga.
5 Ko ia ia kuo ne foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae Laumālie, ʻo ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa mana kiate kimoutolu, [ʻoku ne fai ia ]ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻoe fono, pe ʻi he fanongo ʻi he tui?
6 ʻO hangē ko e tui ʻa ʻEpalahame, ki he ʻOtua, “Pea naʻe lau ia kiate ia ko e māʻoniʻoni.”
7 Ko ia ke mou ʻilo ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻi he tui, ko e fānau ʻakinautolu ʻa ʻEpalahame.
8 Pea ʻi he tomuʻa ʻilo ʻe he tohi, ʻe fakatonuhia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae Senitaile ʻi he tui, naʻe malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ʻi muʻa kia ʻEpalahame, ʻo [ne pehē], “ʻE monūʻia ʻiate koe ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.”
9 Ko ia ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻi he tui, ʻoku tāpuekina fakataha mo ʻEpalahame angatonu.
10 He ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻoe fono, ʻoku moʻulaloa ʻi he malaʻia: he kuo tohi, “ʻOku malaʻia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai tuʻumaʻu aipē ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe fono ke fai ia.”
11 Ka ʻoku ha māhina mai, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ʻe fakatonuhia ʻe he fono ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua: koeʻuhi, “ʻE moʻui ʻae tonuhia ʻi he tui.”
12 Pea ʻoku ʻikai mei he tui ʻae fono: ka, “Ko ia ia ʻoku ne fai ia ʻe moʻui ai.”
13 Naʻe huhuʻi ʻakitautolu ʻe Kalaisi mei he malaʻia ʻoe fono, ko ʻene hoko ko e malaʻia koeʻuhi ko kitautolu: he kuo tohi, “ʻOku malaʻia kotoa pē ʻoku tautau ki he ʻakau:”
14 Koeʻuhi ke hoko ʻae tāpuaki ʻa ʻEpalahame ki he kakai Senitaile foki ʻia Sisu Kalaisi; pea ke maʻu ʻekitautolu ʻae talaʻofa ki he Laumālie ʻi he tui.
15 E kāinga, ʻoku ou lea ʻo taau pe mo e tangata; Kapau ko e fefuakavaʻaki ʻae tangata pe, ka kuo maʻu ia, ʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe fakataʻeʻaonga ia, pe fakalahi ki ai.
16 Ko eni, naʻe fai ʻae ngaahi talaʻofa kia ʻEpalahame mo hono hako. ʻOku ʻikai pehē ʻe ia, Pea ki he “ngaahi hako,” ʻo hangē ko e meʻa ʻi he tokolahi; kae hangē ko e meʻa ʻi he tokotaha pe, Pea ki ho “hako,” pea ko Kalaisi ia.
17 Pea ko ʻeku lea eni, ko e fuakava ʻia Kalaisi, naʻe fakamoʻoni ki ai ʻi muʻa ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fai ʻe he fono ke fakaʻikaiʻi ia, koeʻuhi ke ne fakataʻeaongaʻi ʻae talaʻofa, he naʻe ki mui ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngeau ma tolungofulu.
18 He kapau ʻoku mei he fono ʻae tofiʻa, ʻoku ʻikai ai ʻi he talaʻofa: ka naʻe foaki ia ʻe he ʻOtua kia ʻEpalahame ʻi he talaʻofa.
19 Pea tā koeʻumaʻā ʻae fono? Naʻe fakalahi ʻaki ia ko e meʻa ʻi he angahala, kaeʻoua ke hoko e talaʻofa; pea naʻe tauhi ia ʻe he kau ʻāngelo ki he nima ʻoe fakalaloa.
20 Ko eni, ʻoku ʻikai ai ha fakalaloa, koeʻuhi ko e tokotaha pe, ka ʻoku taha pe ʻae ʻOtua.
21 Pea ka ko ia, pea ʻoku kau kehe ʻae fono mo e ngaahi talaʻofa ʻae ʻOtua? ʻIkai ʻaupito: he ka ne fokotuʻu ha fono ʻe faʻa foaki ʻae moʻui, pehē ʻe hoko moʻoni ʻae fakatonuhia ʻi he fono ko ia.
22 Ka ʻoku fakahā ʻe he tohi kuo moʻulaloa kotoa pē ki he angahala, koeʻuhi ke foaki ai ʻae talaʻofa ʻi he tui, kia Sisu Kalaisi kiate kitautolu ʻoku tui.
23 Ka ʻi he teʻeki hoko mai ʻae tui, naʻe moʻua ʻakitautolu ʻo moʻulaloa ʻi he fono, ʻo moʻua ki he tui ʻaia ʻe toki fakahā ʻamui.
24 Pea ko ia ko hotau takiakiʻi ʻae fono kia Kalaisi, koeʻuhi ke fakatonuhia ʻakitautolu ʻe he tui.
25 Kae hili ʻae hoko mai ʻoe tui, ʻoku ʻikai te tau kei moʻulaloa ki ha takiaki.
26 He ko e fānau ʻae ʻOtua ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻi he tui kia Kalaisi Sisu.
27 He ko kimoutolu kotoa pē kuo papitaiso kia Kalaisi, kuo mou ʻai ʻa Kalaisi.
28 Pea ʻoku ʻikai ai ha Siu pe Kiliki, ʻoku ʻikai ha pōpula pe ha tauʻatāina, ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata pe ha fefine: ka ʻoku mou taha pe kotoa pē ʻia Kalaisi Sisu.
29 Pea kapau ʻoku ʻa Kalaisi ʻakimoutolu, pea ta koe hako ʻo ʻEpalahame ʻakimoutolu, pea koe fānau hoko ʻo fakatatau mo e talaʻofa.
