2 ʻOku fakamoʻui ʻe Kalaisi ʻae mahaki: 3 ʻOku ne fakahā ʻae fehuʻi ʻae kau Fālesi ki he tukuange ʻoe ʻunoho; 10 ʻO ne fakahā hono ʻaonga ʻoe fakamaau. 13 ʻOku ne maʻu ʻae tamaiki iiki: 16 ʻOku ne fakahā ki he talavou ʻaia te ne maʻu ai ʻae moʻui taʻengata, 20 Mo ia ʻe haohaoa ai ia: 23 ʻOku tala ʻe ia ki he kau ākonga hono faingataʻa ʻoe hū ʻae tangata koloaʻia ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, 27 ʻO ne fakaʻilo ʻae totongi maʻanautolu ʻoku liʻaki meʻa koeʻuhi ke nau muimui ʻiate ia.
1 Pea ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻe Sisu ʻene ngaahi lea ni, naʻe ʻalu ia mei Kaleli, pea haʻu ia ki he ngaahi potu ʻo Siutea, ʻo ofi ki Sioatani. 2 Pea muimui ʻiate ia ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻaupito: pea ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻi ai.
3 ¶ Naʻe haʻu foki ʻae kau Fālesi kiate ia, ʻo ʻahiʻahiʻi ia, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ngofua ki he tangata ke tukuange hono ʻunoho ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē?” 4 Pea lea ia, “ʻO pehēange kiate kinautolu, Naʻe ʻikai te mou lau, ko ia naʻa ne fakatupu ʻae kakai ʻi he kamataʻanga, ‘naʻa ne fakatupu ʻakinaua ko e tangata mo e fefine,’ 5 ʻO ne pehē, ‘Ko e meʻa eni ʻe tuku ai ʻe he tangata ʻene tamai mo ʻene faʻē, kae pikitai ki hono ʻunoho: pea ʻe hoko ʻakinaua ko e kakano pe taha?’ 6 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai te na kei ua, ka ko e kakano pe taha. Pea ko eni, ko ia kuo fakataha ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa fakamāvae ʻe ha tangata.” 7 Pea nau pehē kiate ia, “Ka kuo pehē, ko e hā naʻe fekau ai ʻe Mōsese ke ʻoatu ʻae tohi fakamāvae, pea ke tukuange ia?” 8 Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he fefeka ʻo homou loto, ko ia naʻe kātaki ai ʻe Mōsese ʻa hoʻomou tukuange homou ʻunoho: ka naʻe ʻikai pehē mei he kamataʻanga. 9 Pea ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻe tukuange hono ʻunoho, ka ʻi heʻene tono tangata pe, pea fakamaʻu ia mo ha tokotaha kehe, ko e tono fefine ia: pea ko ia ʻe fakamaʻu mo ia kuo tukuange, ko e tono fefine ia.”
10 ¶ Pea pehē ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, “Kapau ʻoku pehē pe ʻae tangata mo hono ʻunoho, tā ʻoku ʻikai lelei ke fakamaʻu.” 11 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ʻikai faʻa maʻu ʻae tala ni ʻe he tangata kotoa pē, ka ko kinautolu kuo foaki ia ki ai. 12 He ʻoku ai ʻae niʻihi ʻoku ʻiunoke, ʻi heʻenau fanauʻi mei he manāva ʻo ʻenau faʻē: pea ʻoku ai ʻae ʻiunoke niʻihi, kuo ngaohi ke ʻiunoke ʻe he tangata: pea ʻoku ai ʻae ʻiunoke niʻihi, kuo nau ngaohi ʻakinautolu ke ʻiunoke, koeʻuhi ko e puleʻanga ʻoe langi. Ko ia ʻoku ne faʻa maʻu ia, ke maʻu pe ʻe ia.”
13 ¶ Pea naʻe ʻomi ai kiate ia ʻae tamaiki iiki, koeʻuhi ke ne hilifaki hono nima kiate kinautolu, ʻo lotu: ka naʻe lolomi ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau ākonga. 14 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sisu, “ʻOua ʻe taʻofi, kae tuku ke haʻu kiate au ʻae tamaiki iiki: he ʻoku ʻoe kakai pehē ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi.” 15 Pea hilifaki ʻe ia hono nima kiate kinautolu, ka ka ʻalu mei ai. 16 Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae tokotaha kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE ʻEiki lelei, ko e hā ha meʻa lelei te u fai ke u maʻu ai ʻae moʻui taʻengata?” 17 Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke ui ai au ko e lelei? Ko e tokotaha pe ʻoku lelei ʻaia ko e ʻOtua: ka ko ho loto ke ke hū ki he moʻui pea ke fai ki he ngaahi fekau.” 18 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻA fē?” Pea pehē ʻe Sisu, “ ‘ʻOua naʻa ke fakapō,’ ‘ʻOua naʻa ke tono fefine,’ ‘ʻOua naʻa ke kaihaʻa,’ ‘ʻOua naʻa ke fakamoʻoni loi,’ 19 ‘Fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoʻo tamai mohoʻo faʻē:’ pea, ‘Ke ʻofa ki ho kaungāʻapi ʻo hangē pe ko koe.’ ” 20 Pea pehēange ʻe he talavou kiate ia, “Kuo u fai kotoa pē eni talu ʻeku kei siʻi: ko e hā ʻoku ou kei hala ai?” 21 Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Kapau ko ho loto ke ke haohaoa, ʻalu ʻo fakatau ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻau, mo foaki ki he masiva, pea te ke maʻu ai ʻae koloa ʻi he langi: pea ke haʻu, ʻo muimui ʻiate au.” 22 Ka ʻi he fanongo ʻae talavou ki he lea ko ia, naʻa ne ʻalu mamahi: he naʻe lahi ʻene koloa.
23 ¶ Pea pehē ai ʻe Sisu ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻE faingataʻa ʻaupito ʻae hū ʻae tangata koloaʻia ki he puleʻanga ʻoe langi. 24 Pea ʻoku ou tala foki kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku faingofua ke hū ʻae kāmeli ʻi he avaʻi hui, ʻi he hū ʻae tangata koloaʻia ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua.” 25 Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻene kau ākonga, naʻa nau ofo lahi ʻaupito, ʻonau pehē, “Pea ko hai ʻe moʻui?” 26 Pea vakai ʻe Sisu, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ʻikai faʻa fai eni ʻe he tangata; ka ʻoku faʻa fai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae meʻa kotoa pē.”
27 ¶ Pea toki lea ai ʻa Pita, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “Vakai, kuo mau siʻaki ʻae meʻa kotoa pē, ʻo muimui ʻiate koe: ko e hā te mau maʻu ai?” 28 Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko kimoutolu kuo muimui ʻiate au, ʻoka nofo ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he nofoʻa ʻo hono nāunau, ʻi he fakafoʻou, ʻe nofo ʻakimoutolu foki ki he nofoʻa ʻe hongofulu ma ua, ʻo fakamaau ai ki he faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu ma ua ʻo ʻIsileli. 29 Pea ko ia fulipē kuo ne liʻaki ʻae fale, pe ʻae kāinga, pe ko e tuofefine, pe ko e tamai, pe ko e faʻē, pe ko e ʻunoho, pe ʻae fānau, pe ʻae fonua, koeʻuhi ko hoku hingoa, te ne maʻu ʻo taki teau, pea te ne maʻu mo e moʻui taʻengata. 30 Ka ko e tokolahi ʻoku muʻomuʻa te nau muimui; pea ko e muimui ʻe muʻomuʻa.
