[1] “ʻI HE kei tamasiʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ne u ʻofa ki ai, pea ne u ui hoku foha mei ʻIsipite.
[2] ʻI heʻenau ui kiate kinautolu, pehē ne nau ʻalu meiate kinautolu: naʻa nau feilaulau kia Pealimi, pea nau tutu ʻae ʻakau namu kakala ki he ngaahi tamapua kuo tongitongi.
[3] Naʻaku akoʻi foki ʻa ʻIfalemi ke ʻalu, ʻi he puke ʻaki honau nima; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ko au naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
[4] Naʻaku toho ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae afo ʻae tangata, ʻaki ʻae noʻo ʻoe ʻofa: pea naʻaku hangē ko ia ʻoku toʻo ʻae nonoʻo mei honau ngutu, pea ne u tuku ʻae meʻakai ʻi honau ʻao.
[5] “ʻE ʻikai te ne toe liliu ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsipite, ka ʻe hoko ʻae ʻAsilia ko hono tuʻi, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te nau loto ke liliu.
[6] Pea ʻe nofomaʻu ki hono ngaahi kolo ʻae heletā, pea te ne fakaʻosi hono ngaahi vaʻa, pea kai ia, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau fakakaukau ʻanautolu pe.
[7] Pea kuo pau pe hoku kakai ke fakaholomui meiate au: neongo ʻenau ui ʻakinautolu ki he Fungani Māʻolunga, naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha te ne hakeakiʻi ia.
[8] “ʻE fēfeeʻi ʻa ʻeku fakatukutukuʻi koe, ʻe ʻIfalemi? Te u fakahaofi fēfeeʻi koe, ʻe ʻIsileli? ʻE fēfeeʻi ʻeku ngaohi ko e ke hangē ko ʻAtima? Te u tuku koe fēfeeʻi ke hangē ko Sipoimi? Kuo liliu hoku loto ʻiate au, kuo tupu fakataha ʻa ʻeku fakatomala.
[9] ʻE ʻikai te u fai ki hono kakaha ʻo hoku houhau, ʻe ʻikai teu tafoki ke fakaʻauha ʻa ʻIfalemi: pe ko e ʻOtua au, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e tangata; ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻoku ʻi homou lotolotonga: pea ʻe ʻikai teu hū ki he loto kolo.
[10] Te nau muimui kia Sihova: te ne ngungulu hangē ko e laione; ʻi heʻene ngungulu ʻe tetetete ʻae fānau mei he lulunga.
[11] Te nau tetetete hangē ko e manupuna mei ʻIsipite, pea hangē ko e lupe mei he fonua ʻo ʻAsilia: pea te u tuku ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi fale,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
[12] ʻOku takatakai ʻaki au ʻe ʻIfalemi ʻae loi, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaki ʻae kākā: ka ʻoku kei pule ʻa Siuta mo e ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ne angatonu mo e ngaahi kakai māʻoniʻoni.
