Naʻe hoko ʻa e meʻá ni ke mau falala ai, ʻo ʻikai kiate kimautolu, ka ki he ʻOtua+ ʻokú ne fokotuʻu hake ʻa e kau maté. 10 Mei ha tuʻunga fakatuʻutāmaki lahi pehē hangē ko e maté naʻá ne fakahaofi kimautolu pea te ne fakahaofi kimautolu, pea ko ʻemau ʻamanakí ʻoku tuʻu ʻiate ia, te ne hokohoko atu foki ke fakahaofi kimautolu.+ 11 ʻE lava foki ke mou tokoni kiate kimautolu ʻaki hoʻomou fai ha hū tōtōaki maʻamautolu,+ koeʻuhi ke fai ai ʻe he tokolahi ha fakafetaʻi maʻamautolu koeʻuhí ko e tokoni ʻoku mau maʻu ʻi he tali ʻa e ngaahi lotu ʻa e tokolahi.+

Pe ʻoku ou fakataumuʻa ʻe au ʻa e ngaahi meʻá ʻi ha founga fakaekakano, ke u pehē ai “ʻIo, ʻio” peá u toe pehē leva “ʻIkai, ʻikai”? 18 Ka ko e ʻOtuá ʻe lava ke fai ʻa e falala ki ai ko e meʻa ʻoku mau leaʻaki kiate kimoutolú ʻoku ʻikai ko e “ʻio” pea hili iá ko e “ʻikai.” 19 He ko e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá, ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi, ʻa ia naʻá ku talaki atu mo Silivēnusi* pea mo Tīmote+ kiate kimoutolú, ʻoku ʻikai te ne pehē “ʻio” pea hili iá ko e “ʻikai,” ka ko ʻene pehē “ʻió” ʻe “ʻio” maʻu ai pē. 20 He tatau ai pē pe ko e hā hono lahi ʻa e ngaahi talaʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá, kuo nau hoko ʻo “ʻio” ko e meʻa ʻiate ia.+ Ko ia ai, ʻoku toe fakafou foki ʻiate ia ʻa e “ʻĒmeni” ʻoku leaʻaki ki he ʻOtuá,+ ʻa ia ʻoku ʻoatu ai ki he ʻOtuá ʻa e lāngilangi fakafou ʻiate kitautolu. 21 Ka ko e tokotaha ʻokú ne fakapapauʻi ʻoku ʻo Kalaisi ʻa kimoutolu mo kimautolú pea ko e tokotaha naʻá ne pani kitautolú ko e ʻOtuá.+ 22 Kuó ne toe ʻai foki ʻene silá ʻiate kitautolu+ pea kuó ne ʻomi kiate kitautolu ʻa e fakapapauʻiʻanga ʻo e meʻa ka hoko maí,* ʻa ia, ko e laumālié+ ʻi hotau lotó.
