Naʻe toe liʻaki ʻe he kau ʻIsilelí ʻa Sihova pea kamata ke nau lotu ki he ngaahi ʻotua loí. ʻI hono ʻohofi ʻe he kau ʻĀmoní ʻo tauʻi ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí, naʻe halaʻatā ke fai ʻe he ngaahi ʻotua loi ko iá ha meʻa ke tokoniʻi kinautolu. Naʻe faingataʻaʻia ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí ʻi he ngaahi taʻu lahi. Naʻe faifai pē pea nau pehē kia Sihova: ‘Kuo mau faiangahala. Fakahaofi muʻa kimautolu mei homau ngaahi filí.’ Naʻe fakaʻauha ʻe he kau ʻIsilelí ʻenau ngaahi ʻaitolí pea kamata ke nau toe lotu kia Sihova. Naʻe ʻikai loto ʻa Sihova ke sio ʻoku hokohoko atu ʻenau faingataʻaʻiá.

Naʻe fili ha tangata tau ko Sēfita ke ne taki ʻa e kakaí ʻi he tau mo e kau ʻĀmoní. Naʻá ne pehē kia Sihova: ‘Kapau te ke tokoniʻi kimautolu ke mau ikuna ʻi he tau ko ení, ʻoku ou palōmesi ʻi heʻeku foki ki ʻapí, te u foaki atu maʻau ʻa e ʻuluaki tokotaha ʻe hū mai mei hoku falé ʻo fakafetaulaki  kiate aú.’ Naʻe fanongo ʻa Sihova ki he lotu ʻa Sēfitá peá ne tokoniʻi ia ke ne ikuna ʻi he taú.

ʻI he foki ʻa Sēfita ki ʻapí, ko e ʻuluaki tokotaha naʻe hū mai ke fakafetaulaki kiate iá ko hono ʻofefiné, ʻa ʻene tama pē ʻe tahá. Naʻá ne hula mo tā nafa. Ko e hā ʻe fai ʻe Sēfitá? Naʻá ne manatuʻi ʻa ʻene palōmesí peá ne pehē: ‘ʻOiauē, ʻe hoku ʻofefine! Kuó ke fakalotomamahiʻi au. Kuó u fai ha palōmesi kia Sihova. Ke fai ki aí, kuo pau ke u ʻave koe ke ke ngāue ʻi he tāpanekale ʻi Sailó.’ Ka naʻe pehē ange ʻe hono ʻofefiné kiate ia: ‘Siʻeku tamai, kapau kuó ke fai ha palōmesi kia Sihova, kuo pau ke ke fai ki ai. Ko e meʻa pē ʻoku ou kole atú ke tuku mai ke u ʻalu ʻi he māhina ʻe ua ki he ngaahi moʻungá mo hoku ngaahi kaungāmeʻa fefiné. Pea te u toki ʻalu leva.’ Naʻe tauhi faitōnunga ʻa e ʻofefine ʻo Sēfitá ʻi he tāpanekalé ʻi he toenga ʻo ʻene moʻuí. ʻI he taʻu kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu ai hono ngaahi kaungāmeʻá ki Sailo ʻo ʻaʻahi kiate ia.
