ʻAisea
50 Ko e folofola eni ʻa Sihová:
“Ko fē ʻa e tohi vete+ ʻa hoʻomou faʻeé, ʻa ia naʻá ku kapusí?
Pe ko hai ʻi heʻeku kau tali fakamoʻuá naʻá ku fakatau atu kimoutolu ki aí?
Vakai! Naʻe fakatau atu kimoutolú koeʻuhí ko hoʻomou ngaahi faihalá,+
Pea naʻe kapusi ʻa hoʻomou faʻeé koeʻuhí ko hoʻomou ngaahi laka halá.+
2 Ko e hā leva naʻe ʻikai ai ke ʻi heni ha taha ʻi heʻeku haʻú?
Ko e hā naʻe ʻikai ke fai mai ai ʻe ha taha ha tali ʻi heʻeku uí?+
ʻOku fuʻu nounou koā ʻa hoku nimá ke ne fai ha huhuʻi,
Pe ʻoku ʻikai koā ha mālohi ʻiate au ke u fai ha fakahaofi?+
ʻOku kovi ʻenau iká ko e ʻikai ʻi ai ha vaí,
Pea ʻoku nau mate koeʻuhí ko e hala ha vaí.
3 ʻOku ou fakakofu ʻa e ngaahi langí ʻaki ʻa e fakapoʻuli,+
Pea ʻoku ou ʻai ʻa e vala tauangaʻá ke ʻufiʻufiʻaki kinautolu.”
4 Ko e ʻEiki Hau ko Sihová kuó ne ʻomi kiate au ʻa e ʻelelo ʻo e faʻahinga kuo akoʻí,*+
Koeʻuhí ke u ʻilo ʻa e founga ke fai ai ha tali* ki he tokotaha ʻoku ongosiá ʻaki ʻa e lea totonu.*+
ʻOkú ne fafangu au ʻi he pongipongi ki he pongipongi;
ʻOkú ne ueʻi ʻa hoku telingá ke fanongo ʻo hangē ko e faʻahinga kuo akoʻí.+
Naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻi ha hala kehe.+
6 Naʻá ku tuku atu hoku tuʻá ki he faʻahinga ʻoku nau taaʻi aú
Pea mo hoku kouʻahé ki he faʻahinga naʻa nau fusi ʻa e kavá.
Naʻe ʻikai te u fufū hoku matá mei he ngaahi meʻa fakamaá mo e ʻanuhí.+
7 Ka ko e ʻEiki Hau ko Sihová te ne tokoniʻi au.+
Ko e ʻuhinga ia ʻe ʻikai ai te u ongoʻi maá.
Ko e ʻuhinga ia kuó u ʻai ai hoku matá ke hangē ha maka fefeká,+
Pea ʻoku ou ʻiloʻi heʻikai ke fakamaaʻi au.
8 Ko e Tokotaha ʻokú ne lau ʻoku ou māʻoniʻoní ʻoku ofi mai.
Ko hai ʻe lava ke ne tukuakiʻi* aú?+
Tuku ke mau tuʻu fehangahangai.
Ko hai ia ʻoku ʻi ai haʻane lāunga fekauʻaki mo aú?
Tuku ke ne fakaofiofi mai.
9 Vakai! Ko e ʻEiki Hau ko Sihová te ne tokoniʻi aú.
Ko hai te ne fakahalaiaʻi aú?
Vakai! Te nau popo hono kotoa ʻo hangē ha kofú.
ʻE kai kinautolu ʻe he ané.
10 Ko hai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku manavahē kia Sihová
Mo fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo ʻene sevānití?+
Ko hai kuó ne laka ʻi he fakapoʻulilōloó, ʻo ʻikai ha maama ʻe tahá?
Tuku ke ne falala ki he huafa ʻo Sihová peá ne maʻu ha poupou mei* hono ʻOtuá.
11 “Vakai! Ko kimoutolu kotoa ʻoku mou tutu ha afi,
ʻO mou ʻai ke tupu mei ai ha mofisiʻi afi,
Mou ʻaʻeva ʻi he maama mei hoʻomou afí,
ʻI he ngaahi mofisiʻi afi kuo mou tutú.
Ko e meʻa eni te mou maʻu mei hoku nimá:
Te mou tokoto hifo ʻi he mamahi lahi.
