[1] KE tuʻu hake ʻae ʻOtua, tuku ke veteki hono ngaahi fili: tuku ke puna foki mei hono ʻao ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate ia.
[2] Hangē ko e vilingia ʻo mole ʻae kohu, ke pehē pe hono vilingia ʻakinautolu: hangē ko e pulu ʻoku vela ʻo vai ʻi he afi, ke ʻauha pehē pe ʻae kau angahala ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
[3] Ka ʻe tuku ke fiefia ʻae māʻoniʻoni; ke nekeneka ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua: ʻIo, ke fiefia lahi ʻaupito ʻakinautolu.
[4] Hiva ki he ʻOtua, hiva fakamālō ki hono huafa: fakaongoongolelei ia ʻoku hāʻele ʻi he ngaahi toafa ʻi hono huafa ko SIHOVA, pea fiefia ʻi hono ʻao.
[5] Ko e tamai ʻae ʻOtua ki he tamai mate, mo e fakamaau ia ʻi hono ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni, ki he kau fefine kuo mate honau ʻunoho.
[6] ʻOku ʻai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae kau paea ʻi he ngaahi fale: ʻoku ne ʻomi kituʻa ʻakinautolu kuo haʻi ʻaki ʻae ukamea fihifihi: ka ʻoku nofo ʻae kau angatuʻu ʻi he fonua mōmoa.
[7] ʻE ʻOtua, ʻi hoʻo muʻomuʻa atu ki ho kakai, ʻi hoʻo hāʻele ʻi he toafa; Sila.
[8] Naʻe ngalulu ʻa māmani, pea ngangana mo e ngaahi langi foki ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua: ʻio, naʻe ngaueue ʻa Sainai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
[9] ʻE ʻOtua, naʻa ke tuku hifo ʻae ʻuha lahi, ʻaia naʻa ke fakamālohi ʻaki ho tofiʻa, ʻi heʻene vaivai.
[10] Naʻe nofo ki ai ʻa ho kakai: ʻE ʻOtua, kuo ke tokonaki ʻi hoʻo angalelei ki he masiva.
[11] Naʻe foaki mai ʻe he ʻEiki ʻae folofola pea naʻe tokolahi ʻakinautolu naʻe fakahā ia.
[12] “Naʻe hola vave ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe kautau:” pea naʻe tufa ʻae vete ʻe he fefine naʻe nofo ʻo leʻo.
[13] Neongo hoʻomou nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi kulo, ka temou hangē ko e kapakau ʻoe lupe ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae siliva, mo hono fulufulu ko e koula melomelo.
[14] ʻI he veteki ʻi ai ʻe he Māfimafi ʻae ngaahi tuʻi, naʻe hinehina ia ʻo hangē ko e ʻuha hinehina ʻi Salimoni.
[15] Ko e moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku hangē ko e moʻunga ko Pesani; ko e moʻunga māʻolunga ʻo hangē ko e moʻunga ko Pesani,
[16] Ko e hā ʻoku mou hopohopo ai, ʻakimoutolu ko e ngaahi moʻunga māʻolunga? Ko e moʻunga eni ʻoku fili ʻe he ʻOtua ke nofo ki ai; ʻio, ʻe nofo ki ai ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata.
[17] Ko e ngaahi saliote ʻae ʻOtua ʻoku ua mano, ʻio, ko e ngaahi toko afe ʻoe ʻāngelo: ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae ʻEiki, ʻio, ʻo hangē ko ʻene ʻi Sainai, ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni.
[18] Kuo ke hāʻele hake ki ʻolunga, kuo u angatuʻu foki, koeʻuhi ke nofo kiate kinautolu ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
[19] Fakafetaʻi ki he ʻEiki, ʻaia ʻoku ne hili kiate kitautolu ʻae kavenga ʻoe meʻa lelei ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ʻio, ko e ʻOtua ʻo hotau fakamoʻui. Sila.
[20] Ko ia, ko hotau ʻOtua ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoe fakamoʻui; pea ʻoku ʻia Sihova ko e ʻEiki ʻae moʻui mei he mate.
[21] Ka ʻe taaʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ʻulu ʻo hono ngaahi fili, mo e tumuʻaki fulufulu ʻo ia ʻoku ʻalu pē ʻi heʻene ngaahi talangataʻa.
[22] Naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Te u toe ʻomi mei Pesani, te u toe ʻomi hoku kakai mei he loloto ʻo e ngaahi tahi.
[23] Koeʻuhi ke kulokula ho vaʻe ʻi he toto ʻo ho ngaahi fili, pea mo e ʻelelo ʻo hoʻo fanga kulī ʻi ai.”
[24] Kuo nau mamata ki ho ngaahi hāʻeleʻanga, ʻE ʻOtua; ʻio, ko e ngaahi hāʻeleʻanga ʻo hoku ʻOtua, mo hoku Tuʻi, ʻi he faletapu.
[25] ʻOku muʻomuʻa ʻae kau hiva, pea hoko mo e kau pulotu tā mālie ʻoe ngaahi meʻa faiva; pea ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau taʻahine ʻoku tā ʻae lali iiki.
[26] “Mou fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua ʻi he ngaahi fakataha, ʻio, ki he ʻEiki, ʻakimoutolu mei he matavai ʻo ʻIsileli.”
[27] ʻOku ʻi ai ʻa Penisimani siʻi mo honau pule, ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Siuta mo ʻenau fakataha, mo e houʻeiki ʻo Sepuloni, pea mo e houʻeiki ʻo Nafitali.
[28] Ko ho ʻOtua kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ho mālohi: ke ke fakamālohi, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ke fai kiate kimautolu.
[29] Ko e meʻa ʻi ho faletapu ʻi Selūsalema, ʻe ʻomi ai ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻaʻofa kiate koe.
[30] Ke ke tautea ʻae fanga manu ʻoe vao kaho, ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ʻoe fanga pulu tangata, mo e ngaahi ʻuhikiʻi pulu ʻoe kakai, ke ʻoua kenau fakavaivai ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi konga siliva: ke ke veteki ʻae kakai ʻoku manako ki he tau.
[31] ʻE haʻu ʻae ngaahi houʻeiki mei ʻIsipite; ʻe mafao vave atu ʻae nima ʻo ʻItiopea ki he ʻOtua.
[32] ʻAe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻo māmani, mou hiva ki he ʻOtua; hiva ʻaki ʻae fakamālō ki he ʻEiki: Sila.
[33] Kiate ia ʻoku heka ki he langi ʻoe ngaahi langi, ʻaia naʻe ʻi muʻa pe; vakai, ʻoku ne fakaongo atu hono leʻo, pea ko e leʻo māfimafi ia.
[34] Mou tuku ki he ʻOtua ʻae mālohi: ʻoku ʻi ʻolunga ʻi ʻIsileli ʻa hono nāunau, mo ʻene māfimafi ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi langi.
[35] ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku fakamanavahē ko e ʻituʻa ʻi ho ngaahi faletapu: ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ko ia ʻoku ne foaki ʻae mālohi mo e faʻa fai ki hono kakai. Fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua.
