Ko ia ai, ko kimautolu foki te mau tauhi kia Sihova, he ko ia ʻa homau ʻOtuá.”

19 Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe Siosiua ki he kakaí: “Heʻikai malava ke mou tauhi kia Sihova, he ko ha ʻOtua māʻoniʻoni+ ia; ko ha ʻOtua ia ʻokú ne fiemaʻu ʻa e anga-līʻoa maʻataʻatā.+ ʻE ʻikai te ne fakamolemoleʻi hoʻomou ngaahi laka halá* mo hoʻomou ngaahi angahalá.+ 20 Kapau te mou liʻaki ʻa Sihova pea tauhi ki he ngaahi ʻotua mulí, te ne toe tafoki hake ai ʻo fakafepakiʻi kimoutolu pea fakaʻauhamālie kimoutolu hili ia ʻene failelei kiate kimoutolú.”+

21 Ka naʻe pehē ange ʻe he kakaí kia Siosiua: “ʻE ʻikai, ka te mau tauhi kia Sihova!”+ 22 Ko ia naʻe pehē ange ʻe Siosiua ki he kakaí: “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni kimoutolu kiate kimoutolu kuo mou fili ʻi he loto pē ʻomoutolú ke tauhi kia Sihova.”+ Ko ia naʻa nau pehē ange ai: “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni kimautolu.”

23 “Ko ia ai, toʻo ʻa e ngaahi ʻotua muli ʻoku ʻi homou lotolotongá, pea ofeʻi homou lotó kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsilelí.” 24 Naʻe pehē ange ʻe he kakaí kia Siosiua: “Te mau tauhi kia Sihova ko hotau ʻOtuá, pea te mau talangofua ki hono leʻó!”

25 Ko ia naʻe fai ai ʻe Siosiua ha fuakava mo e kakaí ʻi he ʻaho ko iá pea fokotuʻu ha tuʻutuʻuni mo ha lao kiate kinautolu ʻi Sīkemi. 26 Naʻe hiki leva ʻe Siosiua ʻa e ngaahi leá ni ʻi he tohi ʻo e Lao+ ʻa e ʻOtuá peá ne toʻo ha fuʻu maka+ ʻo fokotuʻu ia ʻi lalo ʻi he fuʻu ʻakau ʻa ia ʻoku ofi ki he feituʻu toputapu ʻo Sihová.
