< Fakahā 14 >
1 Pea ne u mamata, pea vakai, naʻe tuʻu ha Lami ʻi he moʻunga ko Saione, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae tokotaha kilu mā toko fā mano ma toko fā afe, kuo tohi ʻi honau foʻi laʻē ʻae huafa ʻo ʻene Tamai.
2 Pea ne u ongoʻi ʻae leʻo mei he langi, ʻo hangē ko e ʻuʻulu ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi, pea hangē ko e ʻuʻulu ʻoe mana lahi: pea ne u ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻoe kau haʻape ʻoku taaʻi honau ngaahi haʻape:
3 Pea naʻa nau hiva ʻaki ʻae hiva foʻou ʻi he ʻao ʻoe nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe meʻa moʻui ʻe fā, pea mo e kau mātuʻa: pea naʻe ʻikai ke faʻa ʻilo ʻe ha taha ʻae hiva ko ia ka ko e tokotaha kilu mo e toko fā mano mo e toko fā afe, naʻe huhuʻi mei māmani.
4 Ko kinautolu eni naʻe ʻikai ke nau ʻuliʻi ʻaki ʻae fefine; he ko e kau tāupoʻou ʻakinautolu. Ko kinautolu eni ʻoku nau muimui ʻi he Lami ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ia ki ai. Ko kinautolu eni naʻe huhuʻi mei he kakai, ko e ʻuluaki fua ki he ʻOtua mo e Lami.
5 Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ha kākā ʻi honau ngutu: he ʻoku nau taʻehalaia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻafioʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.
6 Pea ne u mamata ki ha ʻāngelo kehe ʻe taha ʻoku puna ʻi he loto langi, kuo ʻiate ia ʻae ongoongolelei taʻengata ke malangaʻaki kiate kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he māmani, pea ki he puleʻanga kotoa pē, mo e faʻahinga, mo e lea, mo e kakai, (aiōnios )
7 ʻO ne pehē ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, “Manavahē ki he ʻOtua, pea ʻatu ʻae fakamālō kiate ia; he kuo hokosia ʻae feituʻulaʻā ʻo ʻene fakamaau: pea hū kiate ia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae langi, mo e māmani, pea mo e tahi, mo e ngaahi matavai ʻoe ngaahi vai.”
8 Pea naʻe muimui ʻae ʻāngelo ʻe tokotaha, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo hinga ʻa Papilone, kuo hinga ia, ʻae kolo lahi ko ia, koeʻuhi kuo ne fakainuʻi ʻae puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻi he uaine ʻoe houhau ʻo ʻene feʻauaki.”
9 Pea muimui ʻiate kinaua hono tolu ʻoe ʻāngelo, ʻo ne pehē, ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, “Kapau ʻe hū ʻe ha taha ki he manu fekai mo hono fakatātā, pea maʻu ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻi hono foʻi laʻē, pe ʻi hono nima,
10 ʻE inu ʻe ia ʻi he uaine ʻoe houhau ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo lingi taʻehuʻi ki he ipu ʻo hono houhau; pea ʻe fakamamahi ia ʻaki ʻae afi mo e sulifa ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau ʻāngelo māʻoniʻoni, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe Lami:
11 Pea ʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kohu ʻo ʻenau mamahi ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata; pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau mālōlō ʻi ha ʻaho pe ha pō, ʻakinautolu ʻoku hū ki he manu fekai mo hono fakatātā, pea mo ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻo hono hingoa.” (aiōn )
12 Ko eni ʻae faʻa kātaki ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni: ko ʻeni ʻakinautolu ʻoku fai ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻae ʻOtua, mo e tui kia Sisu.
13 Pea ne u ongoʻi ʻae leʻo mei he langi, ʻoku pehē mai kiate au, “Tohi, ‘ʻOku monūʻia talu mei heni ʻae pekia ʻoku pekia ʻi he ʻEiki:’” “ʻIo,” ʻoku pehē ʻe he Laumālie, “Koeʻuhi ke nau mālōlō mei heʻenau ngaahi ngāue; pea ʻoku muimui kiate kinautolu ʻenau ngaahi ngāue.”
14 Pea ne u sio, pea vakai, ko e ʻao hinehina, pea naʻe heka ki he ʻao ʻae tokotaha ʻo hangē ko e Foha ʻoe tangata, kuo ʻi hono ʻulu ʻae pale koula, pea ʻi hono nima ʻae hele tuʻusi ʻoku māsila.
15 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu mei he fale tapu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻe taha, ʻo ne kalanga ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi kiate ia naʻe heka ki he ʻao, “Ai hoʻo hele tuʻusi, ʻo tuʻusi; he kuo motuʻa ʻae taʻu ʻoe maama.”
16 Pea ko ia naʻe heka ki he ʻao, naʻa ne ʻai ʻene hele tuʻusi ʻi he fonua; pea naʻe tuʻusi ʻae fonua.
17 Pea ʻalu atu mo e ʻāngelo ʻe taha mei he fale tapu ʻoku ʻi he langi, kuo ʻiate ia foki ʻae hele tuʻusi ʻoku māsila.
18 Pea ʻalu atu mo e ʻāngelo ʻe taha mei he ʻesifeilaulau, naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae pule ki he afi; ʻo ne kalanga ʻaki ʻae kalanga lahi kiate ia naʻe ʻi ai ʻae hele tuʻusi ʻoku māsila, ʻo ne pehē, “Ai hoʻo hele tuʻusi ʻoku māsila, ʻo tutuʻu ʻa e ngaahi fuhi vaine ʻo māmani; he kuo momoho ʻa hono ngaahi fua ʻoe vaine.”
19 Pea naʻe ʻai ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa ʻene hele tuʻusi ki he fonua, ʻo tutuʻu ʻa e vaine ʻoe fonua, pea ne lī ia ki he tataʻoʻanga uaine lahi ʻoe houhau ʻoe ʻOtua.
20 Pea naʻe malamalaki ʻae tataʻoʻanga uaine ʻi he tuʻa kolo, pea naʻe haʻu ʻae toto mei he tataʻoʻanga uaine ʻo aʻu hake ki he ngaahi noʻo ngutu ʻoe fanga hoosi, pea naʻe mafola atu ia ʻi he maile ʻe uangeau.
