3 Fakatauange ke mou maʻu ʻa e ʻofa maʻataʻatā mo e melino mei he ʻOtuá ko ʻetau Tamaí pea mo e ʻEiki ko Sīsū Kalaisí. 4 Naʻá ne foaki ʻa ia tonu koeʻuhí ko ʻetau ngaahi angahalá+ ke ne fakahaofi ai kitautolu mei he fokotuʻutuʻu fulikivanu*+ lolotongá ʻo fakatatau ki he finangalo ʻo hotau ʻOtuá mo e Tamaí,+ 5 pea ke ʻa ʻEne ʻAfió ʻa e lāngilangí ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻĒmeni.
6 ʻOku ou ofo ʻi he mātuʻaki vave hoʻomou tafoki* mei he Tokotaha ʻa ia naʻá ne ui kimoutolu fakafou ʻi he ʻofa maʻataʻatā ʻa Kalaisí ki ha toe faʻahinga ongoongo lelei kehe.+ 7 ʻOku ʻikai ko e pehē ʻoku ʻi ai ha toe ongoongo lelei kehe; ka ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa e faʻahinga ʻe niʻihi ʻoku nau fakatupu palopalema kiate kimoutolu+ mo nau loto ke mioʻi ʻa e ongoongo lelei fekauʻaki mo e Kalaisí. 8 Kae kehe, neongo kapau ko kimautolu pe ko ha ʻāngelo mei hēvani te ne talaki atu kiate kimoutolu ha ongoongo lelei ʻoku kehe atu ia mei he ongoongo lelei naʻa mau talaki atu kiate kimoutolú, tuku ke malaʻia ʻa e tokotaha ko iá. 9 Hangē ko ia naʻa mau leaʻaki ki muʻá, ʻoku ou toe leaʻaki ia ʻi he taimí ni, ʻIlonga ʻa ia ʻokú ne talaki atu kiate kimoutolu ha ongoongo lelei ʻoku kehe atu ia mei he meʻa naʻa mou talí, tuku ke malaʻia ʻa e tokotaha ko iá.
10 Ko hono moʻoní, ko e tangatá koā ʻoku ou feingá ni ke fakalotoʻí pe ko e ʻOtuá? Pe ko ʻeku feinga koā ke fakahōhōʻiaʻi ʻa e tangatá? Kapau naʻá ku kei fakahōhōʻiaʻi ʻa e tangatá, ʻe ʻikai te u hoko ai ko ha pōpula ʻa Kalaisi. 11 He ʻoku ou loto ke mou ʻilo, fanga tokoua, ko e ongoongo lelei naʻá ku talaki atu kiate kimoutolú ʻoku ʻikai ko e tupu ia mei ha tangata;+ 12 he naʻe ʻikai te u maʻu ia mei ha tangata, pe ko hano akoʻi mai ia kiate au, ka naʻe fakafou mai ia ʻi ha meʻa fakahā meia Sīsū Kalaisi.
13 Ko hono moʻoní, naʻa mou fanongo fekauʻaki mo hoku ʻulungaanga ki muʻa ʻi he lotu faka-Siú,+ ʻa e anga-fakamamahi* ʻa ʻeku hanganaki fakatangaʻi ʻa e fakatahaʻanga ʻa e ʻOtuá mo ʻeku feinga ke fakaʻauha iá;+ 14 pea naʻá ku fai ʻa e fakalakalaka ʻi he lotu faka-Siú ʻo lahi ange ia ʻi he tokolahi ʻo hoku toʻumeʻa ʻi hoku fonuá, he naʻá ku mātuʻaki faivelenga lahi ange ki he ngaahi talatukufakaholo ʻa ʻeku ngaahi tamaí.+ 15 Ka ko e ʻOtuá, ʻa ia naʻá ne fakamavaheʻi au mei he manava ʻo ʻeku faʻeé pea ui au fakafou ʻi heʻene ʻofa maʻataʻataá,+ ʻi heʻene finangalo lelei 16 ke fakaeʻa ʻa hono ʻAló fakafou ʻiate aú koeʻuhi ke u talaki atu ai ʻa e ongoongo lelei fekauʻaki mo iá ki he ngaahi puleʻangá,+ naʻe ʻikai te u kumi faleʻi ʻi he taimi pē ko iá ki ha taha pē ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá;* 17 pea naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu hake ki Selusalema ke kumi faleʻi ki he faʻahinga naʻa nau hoko ko e kau ʻapositolo ki muʻa ʻiate aú, ka naʻá ku ʻalu ki ʻAlepea, pea hili iá naʻá ku foki ki Tāmasikusi.+
18 ʻI he taʻu leva ʻe tolu mei ai naʻá ku ʻalu hake ki Selusalema+ ke ʻaʻahi kia Kīfasi,*+ pea naʻá ku nofo ai mo ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe 15. 19 Ka naʻe ʻikai te u sio ki ha taha ʻo e kau ʻapositolo kehé, ko Sēmisi+ pē ko e tokoua ʻo e ʻEikí. 20 Ko ia ʻi he fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ou tohi atu ai kiate kimoutolú, ʻoku ou fakapapauʻi atu ʻi he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻoku ʻikai te u loi.
