Palōveepi 8:1-36
8 ʻIkai ʻoku kaila ʻa poto?
ʻIkai ʻoku hiki hake ʻe ʻiloʻilo hono leʻó?+
2 ʻI he ngaahi feituʻu māʻolunga+ ʻi he halá,ʻOkú ne tuʻu ʻi he ngaahi manga-halá.
3 Ofi ki he ngaahi matapā ʻoku hū atu ai ki he koló,ʻI he ngaahi hūʻanga ʻo e ngaahi matapaá,ʻOkú ne hanganaki kalanga leʻo-lahi ai:+
4 “ʻOku ou kaila atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻe kakai;ʻOku ou hiki hake hoku leʻó ki he tokotaha kotoa.*
5 ʻA kimoutolu kau taʻetaukei, mou ako ʻa e fakapotopotó;+ʻA kimoutolu kau vale, mou maʻu mai ha loto mahino.
6 Fanongo, he ko e meʻa ʻoku ou leaʻakí ʻoku mahuʻinga,ʻOku leaʻaki ʻe hoku loungutú ʻa e meʻa ʻoku totonú;
7 He ʻoku puʻaki leʻo-siʻi ʻe hoku ngutú ʻa e moʻoní,Pea ʻoku fakaliliʻa ʻa hoku loungutú ʻi he meʻa ʻoku fulikivanú.
8 Ko e ngaahi lea kotoa ʻa hoku ngutú ʻoku māʻoniʻoni.
ʻOku ʻikai ha lea ai ʻe mioʻi pe pikoʻi.
9 ʻOku hangatonu kotoa ia ʻi he vakai ʻa e tokotaha ʻiloʻilóPea ʻoku totonu ia kiate kinautolu kuo nau maʻu ʻa e ʻiló.
10 Puke ʻa ʻeku akonakí kae ʻikai ko e silivá,Pea mo e ʻiló kae ʻikai ko e koula lelei tahá,+
11 He ʻoku lelei ange ʻa e potó ʻi he maka feó;*Ko e ngaahi meʻa manakoa kehé kotoa ʻoku ʻikai lava ke fakahoa ki ai.
12 Ko au, ʻa poto, ʻoku ou nofo fakataha mo e fakapotopotó;Kuó u maʻu ʻa e ʻiló mo e malava fakaefakakaukaú.+
13 Ko e manavahē kia Sihová ʻoku ʻuhinga iá ko e fehiʻa ki he koví.+
ʻOku ou fehiʻa ʻi he hakeakiʻi-kitá mo e pōlepolé+ mo e hala ʻoku koví pea mo e lea mioʻí.+
14 ʻOku ou maʻu ʻa e faleʻi lelei mo e poto ʻaonga;+Ko e mahinó+ mo e mālohí+ ʻoku ʻaʻaku ia.
15 ʻOku hanganaki pule ʻa e ngaahi tuʻí koeʻuhí ko au,Pea ʻoku faituʻutuʻuni māʻoniʻoni ai ʻa e kau māʻolungá.+
16 ʻOku hanganaki pule ʻa e kau houʻeikí koeʻuhí ko au,Pea ʻoku fakamaau ai ʻi he māʻoniʻoni ʻa e kau māʻolungá.
17 ʻOku ou ʻofa ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻofa ʻiate aú,Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku kumi kiate aú te nau maʻu au.+
18 ʻOku ʻiate au ʻa e koloá mo e lāngilangí,ʻA e tuʻumālie tuʻuloá* mo e māʻoniʻoní.
19 Ko e fua ʻoku ʻiate aú ʻoku lelei ange ia ʻi he koulá, naʻa mo e koula kuo ʻosi siví,Pea ko e meʻa ʻoku ou ʻoatú ʻoku lelei ange ia ʻi he siliva lelei tahá.+
20 ʻOku ou ʻaʻeva ʻi he ʻalunga ʻo e māʻoniʻoní,ʻI loto ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻo e fakamaau totonú;
21 ʻOku ou foaki ʻa e tofiʻa mahuʻinga ki he faʻahinga ʻoku ʻofa ʻiate aú,Pea ʻoku ou fakafonu ʻa honau ngaahi feleokó.
22 Naʻe ngaohi au ʻe Sihova ko e kamataʻanga ʻo ʻene founga fakaefakatupú,+Ko e muʻomuʻa taha ʻo ʻene ngaahi ngāue lavameʻa talu mei muʻá.+
23 Mei he kuonga muʻá* naʻe fokotuʻu ai au,+Mei he kamataʻangá, mei he taimi ki muʻa ia ʻi he māmaní.+
24 ʻI he teʻeki ke ʻi ai ha ngaahi vai lolotó,+ naʻe fanauʻi au,*ʻI he teʻeki ke ʻi ai ha ngaahi matavai naʻe fonu mahuohua ʻi he vaí.
25 Ki muʻa ke fokotuʻu ʻa e ngaahi moʻungá ʻi honau tuʻuʻangá,Ki muʻa ʻi he ngaahi foʻi māʻolungá, naʻe fanauʻi ai au,
26 ʻI he teʻeki ai ke ne ngaohi ʻa e māmaní mo hono ngaahi manafáPe ko e ʻuluaki fanga kiʻi kongokonga kelekele ʻo e māmaní.
27 ʻI heʻene teuteu ʻa e langí,+ naʻá ku ʻi ai;ʻI heʻene fakaʻilongaʻi ʻa e tafatafaʻakilangí* ʻi he fukahi vaí,+
28 ʻI heʻene fokotuʻu maʻu* ʻa e ngaahi ʻao ʻi ʻolungá,ʻI heʻene fokotuʻu ʻa e ngaahi matavai ʻo e lolotó,
29 ʻI heʻene fokotuʻu ha tuʻutuʻuni ki he tahíKe ʻoua naʻa fakalaka ʻa hono ngaahi vaí ʻi heʻene fekaú,+ʻI heʻene fokotuʻu maʻu ʻa e* ngaahi makatuʻunga ʻo e māmaní,
30 Naʻá ku ʻi hono tafaʻakí ʻi he taimi ko iá ko ha tufunga pōtoʻi.+
Ko au ʻa e tokotaha naʻe tautefito ʻa ʻene ʻofa aí+ ʻi he ʻaho ki he ʻaho;Naʻá ku fiefia ʻi hono ʻaó ʻi he taimi kotoa pē;+
31 Naʻá ku fiefia ʻi hono māmani ʻe nofoʻí,Pea naʻe tautefito ʻa ʻeku nēkeneká ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo e tangatá.*
32 Pea ko eni, ʻe hoku ngaahi foha, fanongo mai kiate au;ʻIo, fiefia ē ko kinautolu ʻoku nau tauhi ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻalungá.
33 Fanongo ki he akonakí+ pea mou hoko ai ʻo poto,Pea ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa tukunoaʻi ia.
34 Fiefia ē ko e tangata ʻoku fanongo kiate aúʻI heʻene haʻu pongipongia ki* hoku ngaahi matapaá ʻi he ʻaho ki he ʻaho,ʻI heʻene tatali ʻi hoku ngaahi veʻe kaumatapaá;
35 He ko e tokotaha ʻokú ne maʻu aú te ne maʻu ʻa e moʻuí,+Pea ʻokú ne maʻu ʻa e hōifua meia Sihova.
36 Ka ko e tokotaha ʻokú ne tukunoaʻi aú ʻokú ne ʻomi ai ʻa e kovi kiate ia,Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate aú ʻoku nau ʻofa ʻi he maté.”+
