Ko e tokotaha ʻoku ngāue totongí ʻokú ne faʻo hono vāhengá ʻi ha kato ava.’”
7 “Ko e meʻa eni ʻoku folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau taú, ‘Tuku homou lotó* ki homou ngaahi ʻalungá.’
8 “‘Mou ʻalu hake ki he moʻungá pea ʻomi ha papa.+ Pea langa ʻa hoku falé,+ koeʻuhí ke u leleiʻia ai pea fakalāngilangiʻi ai au,’+ ko e folofola ia ʻa Sihová.”
9 “‘Naʻa mou ʻamanekina ʻa e meʻa lahi pea maʻu ʻa e meʻa siʻisiʻi; pea ʻi hoʻomou ʻomi ia ki ʻapí, naʻá ku puhiʻi atu ia.+ Ko e hā hono ʻuhingá?’ Ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau taú. ‘Koeʻuhí ko hoku falé ko e koto maumau, lolotonga ia ʻoku lele takai ʻa e tokotaha taki taha ʻo kimoutolu ke tokangaʻi hono fale pē ʻoʻona.+ 10 Ko ia naʻe taʻofi ʻe he langí ʻa ia ʻoku ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate kimoutolú ʻa hono hahaú, pea taʻofi ʻe he kelekelé ʻa hono fuá. 11 Pea naʻá ku hanganaki ui ha laʻalaʻā ki he māmaní, ki he ngaahi moʻungá, ki he uité, ki he uaine foʻoú, ki he loló, ki he meʻa ʻoku tupu mei he kelekelé, ki he faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá mo e fanga manú, pea ki he kotoa ʻo e ngāue ʻa ho nimá.’”
12 Ko Seluipēpeli+ ko e foha ʻo Saletilí+ mo Siosiua ko e taulaʻeiki lahí, ʻa ia ko e foha ʻo Sihosatakí,+ pea mo e toenga kotoa ʻo e kakaí naʻa nau fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko honau ʻOtuá pea ki he ngaahi lea ʻa e palōfita ko Hākeaí, koeʻuhí naʻe fekauʻi mai ia ʻe Sihova ko honau ʻOtuá; pea naʻe kamata ke fakahāhā ʻe he kakaí ha manavahē koeʻuhí ko Sihova.
13 Naʻe hanga leva ʻe Hākeai, ko e talafekau ʻa Sihová, ʻo ʻoange ʻa e pōpoakí ni ki he kakaí ʻo fehoanaki mo hono fekauʻi ia meia Sihová: “‘ʻOku ou ʻiate kimoutolu kakai,’+ ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe Sihová.”
14 Ko ia naʻe ueʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa e loto+ ʻo Seluipēpeli, ko e kōvana ʻo Siutá,+ ʻa ia ko e foha ʻo Saletilí, pea mo e loto ʻo Siosiua,+ ko e taulaʻeiki lahí, ʻa ia ko e foha ʻo Sihosatakí, pea mo e loto ʻo e toenga kotoa ʻo e kakaí; pea naʻa nau haʻu pea kamata ke nau ngāue ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau taú, ko honau ʻOtuá.+ 15 Naʻe hoko eni ʻi he ʻaho hono 24 ʻo e māhina hono onó ʻi he taʻu hono ua ʻo e pule ʻa Tuʻi Talaiasí.+
