1 Ko e hiva ke langaʻi ʻae faʻaki ki he ʻOtua, 5 Koeʻuhi ko ʻene ngaahi tautea, 12 Pea mo ʻene ʻofa ki hono kakai. 20 Ko e enginaki ke tatali ki he ʻOtua.
‌ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe hiva ʻaki ʻae hiva ni ʻi he fonua ki Siuta;
“ʻOku tau maʻu ʻae kolo mālohi;
ʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae fakamoʻui ki hono ngaahi ʻā mo hono ngaahi puke.
Mou toʻo ʻae ngaahi matapā,
koeʻuhi ke hū ai ʻae puleʻanga māʻoniʻoni ʻaia ʻoku tauhi ʻae moʻoni.
Te ke tauhi ia ʻi he melino haohaoa, ʻaia ʻoku faʻaki hono loto kiate koe:
koeʻuhi ʻoku ne falala kiate koe.
Mou falala kia Sihova ʻo lauikuonga:
he ʻoku ʻi he ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻae māfimafi taʻengata.
He ʻoku ne ʻomi ki lalo ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he māʻolunga;
ʻoku ne fakamoʻulaloa ʻae kolo māʻolunga,
ʻoku ne fakamoʻulaloa ia,
ʻio, ki he kelekele ʻoku ne ʻomi ia ki he efu.
‌ʻE malaki hifo ia ʻaki ʻae vaʻe,
ʻio, ʻae vaʻe ʻoe paea,
pea mo e laka ʻae masiva.”
Ko e hala ʻoe angatonu ko e māʻoniʻoni ia: ʻa koe, ko e fungani māʻoniʻoni, ʻoku ke fakamamafa ʻae hala ʻoe angatonu.
‌ʻIo, kuo mau tatali kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he hala ʻo hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau; ʻoku holi ʻa homau laumālie ki ho huafa, pea ʻi he fakamanatu kiate koe. Kuo u holi ʻi hoku laumālie kiate koe ʻi he pō; ʻio, te u kumi vave kiate koe ʻaki ʻa hoku laumālie ʻi loto ʻiate au: he ka ʻi he fonua ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau, ʻe toki ako ʻae kakai ʻo māmani ki he māʻoniʻoni. 10 Ke hā ʻae ʻaloʻofa ki he angakovi, ka e ʻikai te ne ako ki he māʻoniʻoni: ʻi he fonua ʻoe angatonu te ne fai kākā, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki he māfimafi ʻa Sihova. 11 ‌ʻE Sihova, ʻoka hiki hake ho nima, ʻe ʻikai te nau mamata: ka te nau mamata, pea te nau mā koeʻuhi ko e meheka ki hoʻo kakai; ʻio, ʻe ʻauha ʻi he afi ʻa ho ngaahi fili.
12 ¶ ʻE Sihova te ke tuʻutuʻuni ʻae fiemālie maʻanautolu: he kuo ke fai ʻe koe ʻa ʻemau ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻiate kimautolu. 13 ‌ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, kuo puleʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ngaahi ʻeiki kehe: ka e talu mei heni te mau takua ho huafa ʻoʻou. 14 Kuo nau mate, ʻe ʻikai te nau moʻui; kuo nau pekia, ʻe ʻikai te nau toetuʻu: ko ia kuo ke ʻaʻahi mo fakaʻauhaʻi ʻakinautolu, pea kuo ke fakangata honau fakamanatu kotoa pē. 15 Kuo ke fakatokolahi ʻae puleʻanga, ʻE Sihova, kuo ke fakatokolahi ʻae puleʻanga: kuo fakaongoleleiʻi koe: kuo ke fakamanatu ʻae ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe fonua. 16 ‌ʻE Sihova, ʻi he tuʻutāmaki kuo mau ʻaʻahi kiate koe, naʻa mau lilingi ʻae lotu ʻi he hoko hoʻo tautea kiate kimautolu. 17 Hangē ʻoku mamahi ha fefine feitama, ʻoka fakaʻaʻau ke ofi ʻene fāʻele, pea ʻoku tangi ʻi heʻene langā: kuo pehē ʻakimautolu ʻi ho ʻao, ʻE Sihova. 18 Naʻa mau tuituʻia, naʻa mau mamahi, ʻo hangē kuo mau fanauʻi ʻae matangi; naʻe ʻikai te mau fai ha fakamoʻui ʻi he fonua; pea ʻoku teʻeki ke hinga ʻae kakai ʻo māmani. 19 ‌ʻE moʻui ʻa hoʻo kakai mate, te nau toetuʻu fakataha mo hoku sino mate ni. Mou ʻa ʻo hiva, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku nofo ʻi he efu: he ʻoku tatau hoʻo hahau mo e hahau ʻoe mohuku mata, pea ʻe puʻaki ʻe he kelekele ʻae mate.
20 ¶ Haʻu, ʻa hoku kakai, pea hū ki homou ngaahi loki, pea tāpuni ho matapā kiate koe: fufū koe ʻo fuoloa siʻi, kaeʻoua ke mole atu ʻae houhau. 21 He vakai, ʻoku hāʻele ʻa Sihova mei hono potu ke tautea ʻae kakai ʻo māmani koeʻuhi ko ʻenau hia: pea ʻe fakahā ʻe he fonua hono toto, pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻufiʻufi hono kakai kuo tāmateʻi.
