Naʻe ʻikai fuʻu mamaʻo mei Pēpeli ha kolo naʻe ui ko ʻUa, ʻa ia naʻe lotu ai ʻa e kakaí ki he ngaahi ʻotua tokolahi kae ʻikai lotu kia Sihova. Ka naʻe ʻi ai ha tangata ʻi ʻUa ʻa ia naʻe lotu kia Sihova tokotaha pē. Ko hono hingoá ko ʻĒpalahame.

Naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia ʻĒpalahame: ‘Mavahe mei ho ʻapí pea mei ho kāingá, pea ʻalu ki he fonua te u fakahā atu kiate koe.’ Pea naʻe palōmesi ange ʻa e ʻOtuá: ‘Te ke hoko ko ha puleʻanga lahi, pea te u fai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa lelei maʻá e kakai tokolahi ʻi he māmaní kotoa koeʻuhi ko koe.’

Naʻe ʻikai ke ʻiloʻi ʻe ʻĒpalahame ʻa e feituʻu naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ke ne ʻalu ki aí, ka naʻá ne falala kia Sihova. Ko ia ko ʻĒpalahame, ko hono uaifi  ko Selá, ko ʻene tamai ko Telá, mo Lote naʻá ne fohaʻakí naʻa nau faʻo ʻenau ʻū meʻá pea nau talangofua ʻo kamata ʻenau fononga lōloá.

Naʻe taʻu 75 ʻa ʻĒpalahame ʻi he taimi naʻá ne aʻu ai mo hono fāmilí ki he fonua naʻe fiemaʻu ʻe Sihova ke nau sio aí. Naʻe ui ia ko e fonua ko Kēnaní. Naʻe lea ai ʻa e ʻOtuá kia ʻĒpalahame ʻo ne fai ʻa e palōmesi ko ení: ‘Ko e fonua kotoa ko eni ʻokú ke sio ai takatakai ʻiate koé, te u foaki ia ki hoʻo fānaú.’ Ka naʻe motuʻa ʻa ʻĒpalahame mo Sela pea naʻe ʻikai haʻana fānau. Ko ia ʻe fēfē hono ʻai ʻe Sihova ke hoko ʻa ʻene palōmesí?
