1 Vakai, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he hili hono fakanofonofo ʻo e kakai ʻo ʻĀmoní ʻi he fonua ko Selesoní, ʻio, pea hili foki hono tekeʻi ʻo e kau Leimaná mei he fonuá, pea tanu honau kakai maté ʻe he kakai ʻo e fonuá—
2 Ko ʻeni naʻe ʻikai foki ke lau honau kau maté koeʻuhi ko e fuʻu hulu honau tokolahí; pea ʻikai foki lau mo e kau mate ʻo e kau Nīfaí—ka naʻe hoko ʻo pehē kuo hili ʻenau tanu honau kakai maté, pea hili foki ʻa e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo e ʻaukai, mo e tangi, mo e lotu, (pea naʻe hoko ia ʻi hono hongofulu mā ono ʻo e taʻu ʻo e pule ʻa e kau fakamāú ki he kakai ʻo Nīfaí), pea naʻe fakaʻau ke ʻi ai ʻa e melino maʻu ai pē ʻi hono kotoa ʻo e fonuá.
3 ʻIo, pea naʻe tokanga ʻa e kakaí ke tauhi ʻa e ngaahi fekau ʻa e ʻEikí; pea naʻa nau fai pau ʻi he tauhi ʻo e ngaahi ouau ʻa e ʻOtuá, ʻo fakatatau ki he fono ʻa Mōsesé; he naʻe akonekina ʻa kinautolu ke tauhi ʻa e fono ʻa Mōsesé kae ʻoua ke fakakakato ia.
4 Pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai ke ʻi he kakaí ha moveuveu ʻi hono kotoa ʻo e taʻu hono hongofulu mā ono ʻo e pule ʻa e kau fakamāú ki he kakai ʻo Nīfaí.
5 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he kamataʻanga hono hongofulu mā fitu ʻo e taʻu ʻo e pule ʻa e kau fakamāú, naʻe ʻi ai maʻu pē ʻa e melinó.
6 Ka naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he konga ki mui ʻo hono hongofulu mā fitu ʻo e taʻú, naʻe haʻu ai ha tangata ki he fonua ko Seilahemalá, pea ko e Fili ia ʻo Kalaisi, he naʻá ne kamata ke malanga ki he kakaí ʻo fakaʻikaiʻi ʻa e ngaahi kikite ʻa ia kuo lea ʻaki ʻe he kau palōfitá ʻo kau ki he hāʻele mai ʻa Kalaisí.
7 Ko ʻeni naʻe ʻikai foki ke ʻi ai ha lao ʻa ia ʻoku taʻofi ai ʻa e tui ʻa ha tangata; he naʻe taʻehoa ʻaupito mo e ngaahi fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá ke ʻi ai ha fono ʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻa e tangatá ʻi ha ngaahi tuʻunga ʻoku taʻetatau.
8 He ʻoku pehē ʻi he folofolá: Mou fili he ʻahó ni, ʻa ia te mou tauhí.
9 Ko ʻeni kapau naʻe loto ha tangata ke tauhi ʻa e ʻOtuá, ko hono faingamālie ia ʻoʻona; kae kehe, kapau ʻokú ne tui ki he ʻOtuá, ko hono faingamālie ia ke tauhi kiate ia; ka ʻo kapau ʻoku ʻikai te ne tui kiate ia naʻe ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha lao ke tauteaʻi ai ia.
10 Ka ʻo kapau naʻá ne fakapō, naʻe tautea ia ke mate; pea kapau naʻá ne kaihaʻa fakamālohi naʻe tauteaʻi foki ia; pea kapau naʻá ne kaihaʻa naʻe tauteaʻi foki ia; pea kapau naʻá ne tono naʻe tauteaʻi foki ia; ʻio, naʻe tauteaʻi ʻa kinautolu koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi fai angahala kotoa ko ʻení.
11 He naʻe ʻi ai ha fono ke fakamāuʻi ʻa e tangata ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau ngaahi hiá. Ka neongo iá, naʻe ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha lao ʻoku taʻofi ʻa e tui ʻa ha tangata; ko ia, naʻe tauteaʻi pē ha tangata koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi hia kuó ne faí; ko ia naʻe tuʻunga tatau ʻa e kakai kotoa pē.
12 Pea ko e fili ʻo Kalaisí ko ʻeni, ʻa ia ko hono hingoá ko Kolihola, (pea naʻe ʻikai ke lava ʻe he laó ʻo maʻu ha mafai kiate ia), naʻá ne kamata ke malanga ki he kakaí ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke ʻi ai ha Kalaisi. Pea ko e anga ʻeni ʻo ʻene malangá, ʻo pehē:
13 ʻA kimoutolu ʻoku moʻua ki ha ʻamanaki fakasesele mo taʻeʻaonga, ko e hā ʻoku mou fakamafasiaʻi ai ʻa kimoutolu ʻi ha ngaahi meʻa fakasesele pehē? Ko e hā ʻoku mou kumi ai ki ha Kalaisí? He ʻoku ʻikai ke lava ʻe ha tangata ʻo ʻiloʻi ha meʻa ʻe hoko maí.

Kae vakai, ko e fua ia ʻo ha fakakaukau vale; pea ko e anga mamio ko ʻeni ʻo hoʻomou fakakaukaú ʻoku tupu ia mei he ngaahi talatukufakaholo ʻa hoʻomou ngaahi tamaí, ʻa ia ʻoku tohoakiʻi atu ʻa kimoutolu ki ha tui ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻikai ke moʻoni.
17 Pea naʻe toe lahi mo e ngaahi meʻa pehē naʻá ne lea ʻaki kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai lava ke ʻi ai ha fakalelei ʻe fai koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi angahala ʻa e tangatá; ka ʻoku tuʻu ʻa e tangata ʻi he moʻuí ni ʻo fakatatau ki he anga ʻo ʻene ngāue ʻaʻaná; ko ia ʻoku tuʻumālie ʻa e tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki hono ʻatamaí, pea ʻoku ikuna ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki hono iví; pea ʻilonga ha meʻa ʻoku fai ʻe ha tangata ʻoku ʻikai ko e hia ia.
18 Pea naʻe pehē ʻene malanga kiate kinautolú, ʻo tohoakiʻi atu ʻa e loto ʻo e tokolahi, ʻo fakatupu ʻa ʻenau hiki hake honau ʻulú ke māʻolunga ʻi heʻenau fai angahalá, ʻio, ʻo takiakiʻi atu ʻa e kakai fefine tokolahi mo e kakai tangata foki ke nau fai ʻa e ngaahi feʻauakí—pea tala ange kiate kinautolu ʻo ka mate ʻa e tangatá, ko hono ngataʻangá pē ia.
19 Ko ʻeni naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa e tangatá ni ki he fonua ko Selesoní foki, ke malanga ʻaki ʻa e ngaahi meʻá ni ʻi he kakai ʻo ʻĀmoní, ʻa ia naʻa nau hoko ʻi ha taimi ʻe taha ko e kau Leimana.
20 Kae vakai naʻa nau poto ange ʻi he tokolahi ʻo e kau Nīfaí; he naʻa nau puke ia, ʻo haʻi, pea ʻave ia ki he ʻao ʻo ʻĀmoní, ʻa ia ko ha taulaʻeiki lahi ki he kakai ko iá.
21 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē naʻá ne fekau ke ʻave ia mei he fonuá. Pea naʻá ne haʻu ki he fonua ko Kitioné, ʻo kamata ke malanga kiate kinautolu foki; pea naʻe ʻikai ke loko ola lelei ai ʻa ʻene ngāué, he naʻe puke ia ʻo haʻi ʻo ʻave ki he ʻao ʻo e taulaʻeiki lahi, kae ʻumaʻā foki mo e fakamaau lahi ʻo e fonuá.
22 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē naʻe pehē kiate ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki lahí: Ko e hā ʻokú ke ʻalu holo ai ʻo fakakoviʻi ʻa e ngaahi hāʻeleʻanga ʻo e ʻEikí?

28 ʻIo, ʻoku ʻikai te nau loto-toʻa ke fakaʻaongaʻi ʻa ia ʻoku ʻanautolú telia naʻa nau fakaʻitaʻi ʻa honau kau taulaʻeikí, ʻa ia ʻoku fakakavengaʻi ʻa kinautolu ʻo fakatatau mo ʻenau ngaahi holí, pea kuo nau ngaohi ʻa kinautolu ke tui, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaahi talatukufakaholó mo ʻenau ngaahi misí mo ʻenau ngaahi mahaló mo ʻenau ngaahi meʻa-hā-maí mo ʻenau ngaahi meʻa lilo loí, pea ka ʻilo ange, kuo ʻikai te nau fai ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau ngaahi leá, ʻoku nau fakatupu houhau ai ki ha tokotaha taʻeʻiloa, ʻa ia ʻoku nau pehē ko e ʻOtuá—ko ha tokotaha kuo teʻeki ai ke sio ai pe ʻiloʻi, ʻa ia kuo ʻikai ai pē ke ʻi ai, pea ʻe ʻikai ai pē ke ʻi ai.
29 Ko ʻeni ʻi he vakai ʻe he taulaʻeiki lahí mo e fakamaau lahí ki he fefeka ʻo hono lotó, ʻio, ʻi heʻena ʻiloʻi naʻa mo e ʻOtuá te ne kapekape ki ai, naʻe ʻikai te na fie fai haʻana tali ki heʻene ngaahi leá; ka na fekau ke haʻi ia; ʻo na tukuange ia ki he nima ʻo e kau pulé, ʻo fekau ke ʻave ia ki he fonua ko Seilahemalá, koeʻuhi ke ʻomi ia ki he ʻao ʻo ʻAlamaá, mo e tuʻi fakamaau ʻa ia ʻoku kōvana ki hono kotoa ʻo e fonuá.
30 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi hono ʻomi ia ki he ʻao ʻo ʻAlamā mo e fakamaau lahí, naʻá ne fai atu pē ʻi he founga tatau ʻo hangē pē ko ia naʻá ne fai ʻi he fonua ko Kitioné; ʻio, naʻe hoko atu pē ʻene lea taukaé.
31 Pea naʻá ne tuʻu ʻo fai ʻa e ngaahi lea fielahi leʻo-lahi ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻAlamaá, mo ne lauʻikoviʻi ʻa e kau taulaʻeikí mo e kau akonakí, ʻo tukuakiʻi ʻa kinautolu ki heʻenau tohoakiʻi atu ʻa e kakaí ke muimui ʻi he ngaahi talatukufakaholo fakasesele ʻa ʻenau ngaahi tamaí, koeʻuhi ke mou fakafonu ʻaki ʻa kinautolu ʻa e ngaahi ngāue ʻa e kakaí.
