(Saame 42—72)
1 Ko e holi ʻa Tevita ke tauhi ʻae ʻOtua ʻi hono faletapu. 5 ʻOku ne enginakiʻi hono laumālie ke falala ki he ʻOtua.
Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e akonaki ki he ngaahi foha ʻo Kola.
‌ʻOku hangē ko e holi ʻae hainiti ki he ngaahi tafeʻanga vai,
ʻoku pehē ʻae holi ʻa hoku laumālie kiate koe, ʻE ʻOtua.
‌ʻOku holi hoku laumālie ki he ʻOtua, ki he ʻOtua moʻui:
te u hoko ʻafē ʻo fakahā au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua?
Ko ʻeku meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō ʻa hoku ngaahi loʻimata,
lolotonga ʻoku nau pehē maʻuaipē kiate au, “Ko e fē ho ʻOtua?”
‌ʻI heʻeku manatu ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻoku ou lilingi hoku laumālie ʻiate au:
he naʻaku faʻa ʻalu mo e tokolahi, naʻaku ʻalu mo kinautolu ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua,
ʻi he leʻo ʻoe fiefia mo e fakafetaʻi, mo e tokolahi naʻe tauhi ʻae ʻaho tapu.
Ko e hā ʻoku ke mapelu ai ki lalo, ʻE hoku laumālie?
pea ko e hā kuo ke maveuveu ai ʻi loto ʻiate au?
Ke ke ʻamanaki lelei ki he ʻOtua?
He ko e moʻoni te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia ʻi he ngaahi fakamoʻui ʻo hono fofonga.
‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻoku mapelu ki lalo hoku laumālie ʻi loto ʻiate au:
ko ia te u manatu ai kiate koe mei he fonua ʻo Sioatani,
pea mo Heamoni, mo e moʻunga siʻi ko Maisa.
‌ʻOku ui ʻae loloto ki he loloto ʻi he longoaʻa ʻo hoʻo ngaahi ʻahiohio vai:
ʻoku lōmakiʻi au ʻe hoʻo ngaahi peau kotoa pē mo hoʻo ngaahi ngalu.
Ka ko e moʻoni ʻe fekau mai ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa ʻi he ʻaho,
pea ʻe ʻiate au ʻene hiva ʻi he poʻuli,
mo ʻeku lotu ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
Te u pehē ki he ʻOtua ko hoku makatuʻu, “Ko e hā kuo ke fakangaloʻi ai au?
Ko e hā ʻoku ou ʻalu mamahi pē ʻi he taʻomia ʻe he fili?”
10 Ko e manuki ʻa hoku ngaahi fili, ʻoku hangē ko e heletā kuo uhu ki hoku ngaahi hui;
ʻi heʻenau pehē mai kiate au ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, “Ko e fē ho ʻOtua?”
11 Ko e hā ʻoku ke mapelu ai ki lalo, ʻE hoku laumālie?
Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke maveuveu ai ʻi loto ʻiate au?
Ke ke ʻamanaki lelei ki he ʻOtua: he ko e moʻoni te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia,
ʻaia ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoku mata, mo hoku ʻOtua.
