26 Naʻe tali ʻe Siope ʻo pehē:
2 “He tokoni lahi ē kuó ke fai ki he tokotaha ʻoku ʻikai hano mālohí!
He fakahaofi lahi ē kuó ke fai ki he nima ʻoku ʻikai hano iví!+
3 He faleʻi lelei ē kuó ke fai ki he tokotaha ʻoku masiva potó!+
He fakahaaʻi lahi moʻoni ia ʻe koe ʻa ho poto ʻaongá!*
4 Ko hai ʻokú ke feinga ke ke lea ki aí,
Pea ko hai ia naʻá ne fakamānavaʻi koe ke ke leaʻaki ʻa e ngaahi meʻa peheé?*
5 Ko e faʻahinga kuo mole honau mālohí ʻi he maté ʻoku nau tetetete;
ʻOku nau māʻulalo hifo ʻi he ngaahi vaí mo e faʻahinga ʻoku ʻi aí.
6 ʻOku telefua ʻa Faʻitoka* ʻi he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá,*+
Pea ko e feituʻu ʻo e ʻauhá* ʻoku tekelei taʻeʻiai hano ʻufiʻufi.
7 ʻOkú ne folahi atu ʻa e langi fakatokelaú* ki he ʻataá noa pē,+
Pea tautau ʻa e māmaní ki he halaʻataá;
8 ʻOkú ne kofukofu ʻa e ngaahi vaí ʻi heʻene ngaahi ʻaó,+
Ke ʻoua naʻa mafaʻa ʻa e ngaahi ʻaó ʻi heʻenau mamafá;
9 ʻOkú ne tāpuniʻi ʻa e vakai atu ki hono taloní,
ʻO ne folahi ki ai ʻene ʻaó.+
10 ʻOku ne fakaʻilongaʻi ʻa e tafatafaʻakilangí* ʻi he fukahi vaí;+
ʻOkú ne ʻai ha ngatangataʻanga ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e māmá mo e poʻulí.
11 ʻOku ngalulu ʻa e ngaahi pou ʻo e langí;
ʻOku nau moʻutāfuʻua ʻi heʻene valokí.
12 ʻOkú ne ueʻi ʻa e tahí ʻaki hono mālohí,+
Pea koeʻuhi ko e mahino ʻokú ne maʻú ʻokú ne laiki ke kongokonga+ ʻa e fuʻu manu ʻo e tahí.*
13 ʻOkú ne ʻai ke maʻa ʻa e langí ʻaki ʻene mānavá;*
Ko hono nimá ʻokú ne hokaʻi ʻa e ngata ʻoku pukengataʻá.*
14 Vakai! Ko e ngaahi meʻá ni ko e hikuhiku pē ia ʻo ʻene ngaahi foungá;+
Ko ha vanavanaiki pē kuo ongo mai ʻo kau kiate iá!
Ko ia ko hai ia ʻe lava ke ne mahinoʻi ʻa ʻene fuʻu mana mālohí?”+
