Fakatauange ke mou maʻu ʻa e ʻofa maʻataʻatā mo e melino mei he ʻOtuá ko ʻetau Tamaí.
3 ʻOku mau fakamālō maʻu pē ki he ʻOtuá, ko e Tamai ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻi he taimi ʻoku mau lotu ai maʻamoutolú,

5 koeʻuhi ko e ʻamanaki ʻoku tuku tauhi maʻa kimoutolu ʻi he langí.+ Naʻa mou fanongo ki muʻa ʻo fekauʻaki mo e ʻamanaki ko ʻení fakafou ʻi he pōpoaki ʻo e moʻoni ʻo e ongoongo leleí
6 ʻa ia kuo aʻu atu kiate kimoutolú. Hangē tofu pē ko e fakatupu fua mo e tupulaki ʻa e ongoongo leleí ʻi he kotoa ʻo e māmaní,+ ʻoku pehē pē foki ʻene hoko ia ʻi homou lotolotongá talu mei he ʻaho naʻa mou fanongo ai mo ʻiloʻi totonu ʻi hono tuʻunga moʻoní ʻa e ʻofa maʻataʻatā ʻa e ʻOtuá.
7 Ko e meʻa ia kuo mou ʻilo meia ʻEpafasi ko siʻomau kaungā-tamaioʻeiki ʻofeiná,+ ʻa ia ko e faifekau* faitōnunga ʻa e Kalaisí maʻa kitautolu.
8 Naʻá ne toe fakaʻilo mai foki kiate kimautolu ʻa hoʻomou ʻofa ʻa ia ʻoku fai ʻi ha founga fakalaumālié.*
9 Ko e toe ʻuhinga foki ia talu mei he ʻaho naʻa mau fanongo ai fekauʻaki mo iá, kuo ʻikai ʻaupito tuku ai ʻemau lotu maʻamoutolú+ mo e kole ke lava ʻo mou hoko ʻo fonu ʻi he ʻilo totonu+ fekauʻaki mo hono finangaló ʻi he poto mo e mahino fakalaumālie kotoa pē,+
10 koeʻuhi ke mou ʻaʻeva ʻo taau mo Sihova* koeʻuhí ke fakahōifuaʻi kakato ia ʻi hoʻomou hoko atu ko ia ʻo fakatupu fua ʻi he ngāue lelei kotoa pē mo tupulaki ʻi he ʻilo totonu fekauʻaki mo e ʻOtuá;+
11 pea fakatauange ke fakaivimālohiʻi kimoutolu ʻaki ʻa e mālohi kotoa ʻo fakatatau ki hono māfimafi lāngilangiʻiá+ koeʻuhí ke mou kātekina ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē ʻi he kātaki mo e fiefia,
12 ʻi hoʻomou fakamālōʻia ʻa e Tamaí, ʻa ia naʻá ne ʻai kimoutolu ke mou taau ke kaungāʻinasi ʻi he tofiʻa ʻo e kakai tapú+ ʻa ia ʻoku nau ʻi he māmá.
13 Naʻá ne fakahaofi kitautolu mei he mafai ʻo e fakapoʻulí+ peá ne ʻave kitautolu ki he puleʻanga ʻo hono ʻAlo ʻofaʻangá,
14 ʻa ia ʻoku fakafou ʻiate ia ʻetau maʻu hotau fakatauʻatāina fakafou ʻi he huhuʻí, ʻa e fakamolemole ʻo ʻetau ngaahi angahalá.+
15 Ko ia ʻa e ʻīmisi ʻo e ʻOtua taʻehāmaí,+ ko e ʻuluaki fakatupu ia ʻi he meʻa fakatupu kotoa pē;+
16 koeʻuhí naʻe fakafou ʻiate ia, ʻa hono fakatupu ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kehe kotoa pē ʻi he langí pea ʻi he māmaní, ʻa e ngaahi meʻa hā mai mo e ngaahi meʻa taʻehāmai,+ ʻo tatau ai pē pe ko e ngaahi taloni pe tuʻunga ʻeiki pe ko e ngaahi founga-pule pe ko e ngaahi mafai kinautolu. Ko e ngaahi meʻa kehe kotoa pē kuo fakatupu ia fakafou ʻiate ia+ pea maʻana.
17 Pehē foki, ko e ki muʻa ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kehe kotoa pē,+ pea fakafou ʻiate ia naʻe ngaohi ai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kehe kotoa pē ke nau ʻi ai,
18 pea ko ia ʻa e ʻulu ʻo e sinó, ʻa e fakatahaʻangá.+ Ko ia ʻa e kamataʻangá, ko e ʻuluaki fanauʻi ia mei he maté,+ koeʻuhi ke ne hoko ai ko e tokotaha ʻoku muʻomuʻa ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē;
19 koeʻuhi naʻe finangalo ʻa e ʻOtuá ke ʻai ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē ke kakato ʻi he tokotaha ko iá,+
20 pea ke fai ha fakalelei ki he ʻOtuá fakafou ʻi hono ʻAló, ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kehe kotoa pē+ ʻaki ʻa e fakamelino fakafou ʻi he taʻataʻa+ ʻo Kalaisi naʻe lilingi ʻi he ʻakau fakamamahí,* ʻo tatau ai pē pe ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻi he māmaní pe ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻi he langí.
21 Ko e moʻoni, naʻa mou hoko ko e ngaahi fili ki muʻa ʻo e ʻOtuá pea mavahe meiate ia koeʻuhí naʻe tuku taha ʻa hoʻomou fakakaukaú ʻi he ngaahi ngāue naʻe fulikivanú,
22 kuó ne fai eni ha fakalelei maʻamoutolu ʻaki ʻa e sino fakaekakano ʻo e tokotaha ko iá fakafou ʻi heʻene pekiá, koeʻuhí ke ʻoatu ai kimoutolu ʻoku mou māʻoniʻoni mo taʻemele mo ʻikai ala tukuakiʻi ʻi hono ʻaó+—
23 kae kehe, kuo pau ke mou hokohoko atu ʻi he tuí,+ ʻo fokotuʻu maʻu kimoutolu ʻi he makatuʻungá+ mo tuʻu maʻu,+ ʻo ʻikai hiki mei he ʻamanaki ʻo e ongoongo lelei ko ia naʻa mou fanongo ai pea naʻe malangaʻi ʻi he meʻa fakatupu kotoa pē ʻi he lalo langí.+ Ko au Paula, naʻá ku hoko ko ha faifekau* ʻo e ongoongo lelei ko ení.+
24 ʻOku ou fiefia he taimí ni ke u faingataʻaʻia maʻamoutolu,+ pea ʻoku ou loto-lelei ke hokohoko atu ʻeku tofanga ʻi he faingataʻá ʻi hoku tuʻunga ko ha kupu ʻo e sino ʻo Kalaisí. Ko e faingataʻaʻiá ni ʻe iku ia ki ha lelei maʻá e sino ʻo Kalaisí,+ ʻa ia ko e fakatahaʻangá.+
25 Naʻá ku hoko ko ha faifekau ʻo e fakatahaʻanga ko ʻení ʻo fakatatau ki he fatongia+ mei he ʻOtuá ʻa ia naʻe ʻomai kiate au ke u malangaʻi kakato ʻa e folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá ko ha lelei maʻamoutolu,
26 ʻa e fakalilolilo toputapu+ naʻe fufū talu mei he ngaahi fokotuʻutuʻu ʻi he kuohilí*+ pea talu mei he ngaahi toʻutangata ʻi he kuohilí. Ka ko eni kuo fakaeʻa ia ki heʻene kakai tapú,+
27 ʻa kinautolu kuo finangalo ʻa e ʻOtuá ke fakaʻilo ki ai ʻa e ngaahi koloa lāngilangiʻia ʻo e fakalilolilo toputapú ni+ ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e ngaahi puleʻangá, ʻa ia ko e fāʻūtaha ʻa Kalaisi mo kimoutolú, pea mo e ʻamanaki atu ke kaungāʻinasi mo ia ʻi hono lāngilangí.+
28 Ko ia ʻa e tokotaha ʻoku tau fanongonongo atú, ʻo enginaki ki he tokotaha kotoa mo akoʻi ʻa e tokotaha kotoa ʻi he poto kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ke tau ʻoatu ai ʻa e tangata kotoa pē kuo kakato* ʻi he fāʻūtaha mo Kalaisí.+
29 Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou ngāue mālohi ki he taumuʻa ko ʻení, ʻo u feinga tōtōivi ʻaki ʻa e tokoni ʻa hono mālohi ʻa ia ʻokú ne ngāueʻaki ʻiate aú.+
