1 ʻI he fakamoʻoni ʻa Siope ki he angatonu ʻae ʻOtua, ʻoku ne fakahā ʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe faʻa taʻofi ia. 22 Ka ʻoku ʻikai hā mai ʻae halaia ʻae tangata ʻi he ngaahi mamahi.

1 Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Siope, ʻo ne pehē,

2 ‌ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻoku pehē moʻoni ia ka ʻe tonuhia fēfē ʻae tangata ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua?
3 Kapau te na alea, mo ia,
ʻe ʻikai te ne faʻa talia ʻe ia ha taha ʻi he meʻa ʻe afe.
4 ‌ʻOku poto ia ʻi loto, pea lahi ʻi he mālohi:
ko hai kuo ne fakaangatuʻu ia kiate ia, pea monūʻia?
5 Ko ia ia ʻoku ne hiki ʻae ngaahi moʻunga, kae ʻikai ke nau ʻilo:
ʻoku ne fulihi ia ʻi hono houhau.
6 ‌ʻOku ne luluʻi ʻae fonua mei hono potu,
pea ʻoku ngalulululu hono ngaahi pou.
7 ‌ʻOku ne fekauʻi ʻae laʻā, pea ʻikai ʻalu hake ia;
pea ne tāpuni hake ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu.
8 ‌ʻOku ne folahi atu tokotaha pē ʻae ngaahi langi,
pea ʻoku ne hāʻele ʻi he ngaahi peau ʻoe tahi.
9 ‌ʻOku ne ngaohi ʻa ʻAakitulio, mo Olioni, mo Peliatisi,
pea mo e ngaahi potu ki he feituʻu tonga.
10 ‌ʻOku ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi ʻo taʻefaʻaʻilo;
ʻio, ko e ngaahi meʻa mana ʻoku taʻefaʻalaua.
11 Vakai, ʻoku hāʻele ia ʻi hoku tafaʻaki, ka ʻoku ʻikai te u mamata ki ai:
ʻoku ne hāʻele atu foki ka ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi ia.
12 Vakai, ʻoku ne toʻo atu,
ko hai ʻe faʻa taʻofi ia?
Ko hai ʻe pehē kiate ia, ‘Ko e hā ʻoku ke fai?’
 
13 “Kapau ʻe ʻikai taʻofi ʻe he ʻOtua ki hono houhau,
ʻe mapelu ki lalo ʻiate ia ʻae kau tokoni fielahi.
14 Kae fēfē ai ʻeku talia ia ʻeau,
pea u fili ʻeku ngaahi lea ke alea mo ia?
15 ‌ʻAia ʻe ʻikai te u talia, ʻoka ne u māʻoniʻoni,
ka te u hū tāumaʻu ki hoku Fakamaau.
16 Ka ne u ui, pea talia ia;
kae ʻikai te u tui kuo ne ongoʻi hoku leʻo.
17 He ʻoku ne haʻaki au ʻaki ʻae afā,
pea ne fakalahi ʻeku lavea taʻehanoʻuhinga.
18 ‌ʻOku ʻikai tuku ʻe ia ke u mānava,
ka ʻoku ne fakapito au ʻaki ʻae mamahi.
19 Kapau te u lea ki he mālohi, vakai, ʻoku māfimafi ia:
pe ki he fakamaau, ‘ko hai te ne fakamoʻoni kiate au?’
20 Kapau te u fakatonuhiaʻi au, pea tā ʻe fakahalaʻi au ʻe hoku ngutu ʻoʻoku;
pē te u pehē ʻoku ou haohaoa, ʻe fakamoʻoni ia ki heʻeku halaia.
21 Neongo ʻa ʻeku haohaoa,
ka ʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo ki hoku loto:
te u fehiʻa ʻeau pē ki heʻeku moʻui.
 
22 “Ko e meʻa ni pē taha,
ʻoku ou fakamoʻoni ki ai, ʻOku ne fakaʻauha ʻae haohaoa mo e angahala.
23 Kapau ʻe fakafokifā pē ʻae taaʻi ʻe he fakamamahi,
ʻe kata ʻe ia ʻi he ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻoe taʻeangahala.
24 Kuo tuku ʻae fonua ki he nima ʻoe angahala:
ʻoku ne ʻufiʻufi ʻae mata ʻo hono kau fakamāu; ka ʻikai, pea kofaa, pe ko hai ia?
 
25 “ʻOku vave eni ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho ʻi he tangata fekau:
ʻoku puna atu ia, ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻe ia ha lelei.
26 Kuo mole ia ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi vaka ngaholo:
ʻo hangē ko e ʻikale ʻoku fakavave ki he kai.
27 Kapau te u pehē, ‘Te u fakangaloʻi ʻa ʻeku mamahi,
te u siʻaki ʻeku māfasia, ʻo fakafiemālieʻi au:’
28 Tā te u ilifia ʻi heʻeku ngaahi mamahi fulipē,
ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻe ʻikai te ke fakatonuhiaʻi au.
29 Kapau ʻoku ou angakovi,
pea tā ʻoku kei taʻeʻaonga pe ʻeku ngāue?
30 He kapau te u kaukau au ʻi he vai ʻuha hinehina,
ʻo ngaohi ke maʻa ʻaupito hoku nima;
31 Ka te ke lī au ki he pelepela,
pea ʻe fakaliliʻa kiate au ʻa hoku ngaahi kofu ʻoʻoku.
32 He ʻoku ʻikai ko e tangata ia, ʻo hangē ko au, koeʻuhi ke u talia ia,
pea kema fakataha ʻi he fakamaau.
33 Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata fakalelei ʻi homa vahaʻa,
ke ne hili hono nima kiate kimaua fakatouʻosi.
34 Ke toʻo ʻe ia ʻene meʻa tā ʻiate au,
pea ʻoua naʻa fakailifiaʻi au ʻe heʻene manavahē:
35 Te u toki lea ai, ʻo taʻemanavahē kiate ia;
ka ʻoku ʻikai te u pehē eni.
