12 “Vakai, kuo mamata ki ai ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē;
pea ko e hā ʻoku mou launoa pehē ai fau?
13 Ko eni ʻae ʻinasi ʻoe tangata fai kovi mei he ʻOtua,

14 Kapau ʻe fakatokolahiʻi ʻene fānau, ko e meʻa ia ki he heletā:
pea ʻe ʻikai mākona ʻi he mā ʻa hono hako.
15 Ko kinautolu ʻoku toe ʻiate ia, ʻe tanu ʻi he mate:

18 ‌ʻOku langa ʻe ia hono fale ʻo hangē ko e ʻunufe,
pea hangē ko e fale leʻo ʻoku langa hake ʻe he leʻo.
19 ‌ʻE tokoto hifo ʻae tangata koloaʻia, ka ʻe ʻikai tānaki ia:
ʻoku ne fakaʻā hono mata, pea ne ʻikai leva.
20 ‌ʻOku lōmekina ia ʻi he ilifia ʻo hangē ha vai,
ʻoku kaihaʻasi ia ʻe he afā ʻi he pō.
21 ‌ʻOku ʻave ia ʻe he matangi hahake, pea ʻoku mole atu ia:
pea hangē ko e afā ʻoku fakapuna ia mei hono potu.
22 ‌ʻE haʻaki ia kiate ia ʻo ʻikai taʻofi,
ʻoku holi ia ke hao atu mei hono mālohi.
23 Ka ʻe pasipasi ʻe ia hono nima kiate ia,
ʻo seseʻe ia mei hono potu.
