1–28 Pea hokohoko atu ki he ngaahi vahe hoko...
1 ‌ʻOku lelei hake ʻae kihiʻi meʻakai siʻi ʻoku mōmoa, mo e fakalongolongo,
ʻi he fale ʻoku fonu ʻi he meʻakai lelei, ka ʻoku ʻi ai mo e feʻiteʻitani.
2 ‌ʻE pule ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻoku poto ki he foha ʻoku fai fakamā;
pea ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ha tofiʻa fakataha mo e fānau.
3 Ko e kulo ʻahiʻahiʻi ko e meʻa ia ki he siliva, pea ko e meʻa ki he koula ʻae afi kakaha:
ka ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻae loto kotoa pē ʻe Sihova.
4 ‌ʻOku tokanga ʻae tangata fai kovi ki he loungutu ʻoku loi;
pea ʻoku tokanga ʻe ia ʻoku loi ki he ʻelelo ʻoku kovi.
5 Ko ia ʻoku manuki ki he masiva ʻoku valoki ʻe ia ʻa hono Tupuʻanga:
pea ʻe ʻikai fakatonuhiaʻi ʻae tangata ko ia ʻoku fiefia ʻi he hoko ʻae ngaahi kovi.
6 Ko e fānau ʻae fānau ko e tatā ia ʻoe kau mātuʻa:
pea ko e lelei ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻenau ngaahi tamai.
7 ‌ʻOku ʻikai ngali mo e vale ʻae lea lelei:
pea ʻoku taʻengali ʻaupito mo ha ʻeiki ʻae loungutu ʻoku loi.
8 ‌ʻOku tatau ha meʻa foaki mo e maka mahuʻinga ki he mata ʻoʻona ʻoku ne maʻu ia:
he ʻoku lelei pe ia ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoku tafoki ia ki ai.
9 ‌ʻOku ʻofeina ia ʻoku faʻa ʻufiʻufi ʻae fai hala:
ka ko ia ʻoku toe lea ʻaki ha meʻa, ko e fakamāvae ia ʻoe kaumeʻa feʻofoʻofani.
10 ‌ʻOku ongongofua ʻae valoki ki he loto ʻoe tangata poto ʻi he kauʻimaea ke liunga teau ki he vale.
11 ‌ʻOku fie talangataʻa pe ʻae tangata angakovi;
pea ko ia ʻe fekau atu ai kiate ia ha taha ʻoku angamālohi.
12 ‌ʻOku lelei hake ke fakafetaulaki ha tangata mo ha pea kuo kaihaʻasi mei ai ʻa hono ʻuhiki,
ʻi he fetaulaki mo ha vale ʻi heʻene vale.
13 Ko ia ʻoku ne totongi ʻaki ʻae kovi ki he lelei,
ʻe ʻikai mavahe ʻae kovi mei hono fale.
14 Ko e kamataʻanga ʻoe feʻiteʻitani ʻoku hangē ko e fakapā mai ʻo ha vai:
ko ia ke tuku ʻā ʻae fekeʻikeʻi ʻi he teʻeki ai hoko ha meʻa.
15 ‌ʻOku fakatou fakalielia kia Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ne fakatonuhiaʻi ʻae halaia,
mo ia ʻoku ne talatalaakiʻi ʻae māʻoniʻoni.
16 Ko e hā eni kuo ʻai ʻae totongi ki he nima ʻoe vale ke ne maʻu ai ʻae poto,
ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne maʻu ha loto ki ai? 17 ‌ʻOku ʻofa maʻuaipē ʻae kāinga moʻoni,
pea kuo fanauʻi ho tokoua ke talifaki ʻae ʻaho ʻoe kovi.
18 Ko e tangata ʻoku masiva poto, ʻoku puke ʻe ia ʻae nima,
ʻo ne fai ʻae fakamoʻoni totongi ʻi he ʻao ʻo hono kāinga.
19 Ko ia ʻoku manako ki he feʻiteʻitani ʻoku ʻofa ia ki he kovi:
pea ko ia ʻoku hiki hake hono matapā ʻoku kumi ʻe ia ki he fakaʻauha.
20 ‌ʻOku ʻikai ʻilo ha lelei siʻi ʻe ia ʻoku loto talangataʻa:
pea ʻoku tō hifo ki he kovi ʻaia ʻoku maʻu ʻae ʻelelo kovi.
21 Ko ia ʻoku ne fakatupu ha vale ʻoku ne fai ke ne mamahi ai ia:
pea ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ha fiefia ʻe he tamai ʻae tangata vale.
22 ‌ʻOku tupu ʻae lelei ʻo hangē ha faitoʻo mei he loto ʻoku fiefia:
ka ʻoku fakamōmoa ʻae hui ʻe he laumālie kuo mafesi.
23 ‌ʻOku toʻo mai ʻe he angakovi ha meʻa foaki mei he fatafata,
ke ne taki kehe ʻae hala ʻoe fakamaau.
24 ‌ʻOku ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tangata ʻoku faʻa fakakaukau ʻae poto:
ka ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani ʻae mata ʻoe vale.
25 Ko e foha ʻoku vale ko e fakamamahi ia ki heʻene tamai,
mo e ongosia kiate ia naʻe fāʻeleʻi ia.
26 ‌ʻOku ʻikai lelei ke tautea ʻae angatonu:
pe ko e taaʻi ʻoe houʻeiki ʻi heʻenau fai totonu.
27 Ko ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae poto ʻoku ne taʻofi ki heʻene lea:
pea ʻoku loto lelei ʻae tangata ko ia ʻoku faʻa fakakaukau.
28 Naʻa mo e vale ʻoku lau ia ko e poto, ʻoka fakalongo pē ia:
pea ʻoku lau ko e tangata faʻa ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku mapuni hono loungutu.
