Ke tuʻumaʻu pe ʻae feʻofoʻofani fakakāinga. ʻOua naʻa ngalo ke fakaafe ʻae kakai muli: he kuo fakaafe ai ʻe he niʻihi ʻae kau ʻāngelo ʻi he taʻeʻilo. Manatuʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku moʻua ʻi he haʻi, ʻo hangē kuo haʻisia mo kimoutolu; mo kinautolu ʻoku ngaohikoviʻi, ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou kei ʻi he sino foki. Ko e fakamaʻu mali mo e mohenga taʻeʻuliʻi, ʻoku lelei ia ki he kakai kotoa pē, ka koe kau feʻauaki mo e kau tono fefine ʻe fakamaau ʻe he ʻOtua. Ke taʻemanumanu hoʻomou ʻulungāanga; pea mou fiemālie ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku mou maʻu: he kuo pehē mai ʻe ia, “E ʻikai te u liʻaki koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻiate koe.” Ko ia ʻoku tau lea mālohi ai, “Ko hoku tokoni ʻae ʻEiki pea ʻe ʻikai te u manavahē ki ha meʻa ʻe fai ʻe he tangata kiate au.” Manatuʻi ʻa homou kau fakahinohino, ʻakinautolu naʻe leaʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu, pea faʻifaʻitaki ki heʻenau tui, ʻo fakatokanga ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻenau ʻulungāanga. Ko Sisu Kalaisi ʻoku tatau ʻi he ʻaneafi, mo e ʻaho ni, pea taʻengata. Ke ʻoua naʻa feʻaveʻaki fano ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ngaahi akonaki ʻoku kehekehe hono anga mo foʻou. He ko e meʻa lelei ke tuʻumaʻu ʻae loto ʻi he ʻofa; ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi meʻakai, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ʻaonga kiate kinautolu naʻe moʻua ki ai. ʻOku ai ʻetau ʻesifeilaulau, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke kai mei ai ʻekinautolu ʻoku tauhi ʻi he fale fehikitaki. Kaeʻumaʻā ia, ʻoku tutu ʻi tuaʻā kolo ʻae sino ʻoe fanga manu ko ia, ʻaia ʻoku ʻomi honau toto ʻe he taulaʻeiki lahi ki he potu tapu, koeʻuhi ko e angahala. Ko ia naʻe mamahi foki ʻa Sisu, ʻi he tuaʻā kolo, koeʻuhi ke ne fakamāʻoniʻoni ʻae kakai ʻaki hono taʻataʻa ʻoʻona. Ko ia ke tau ʻalu atu kiate ia kituaʻā kolo, ʻo fua hono manuki. He ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻekitautolu ʻi heni ha kolo ʻe tuʻumaʻu, ka ʻoku tau kumi ki ha taha ʻe hoko. Ko ia ke tau ʻatu ʻiate ia ʻae feilaulau ʻoe fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua ʻo maʻuaipē, ʻaia ko e fua ʻoe loungutu ʻoka atu ai ʻae fakafetaʻi ki hono huafa. Ka ko e fai lelei, mo e foaki, ke ʻoua naʻa ngalo: he ko e ngaahi feilaulau pehē ʻoku leleiʻia ai ʻae ʻOtua. Mou talangofua kiate kinautolu ʻoku fakahinohino ʻakimoutolu, pea mou fakavaivai: he ʻoku nau leʻohi homou laumālie, he te nau fakamatala ki ai, pea koeʻuhi ke nau fai ia ʻi he fiefia, kaeʻoua naʻa ʻi he mamahi: he ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ia kiate kimoutolu. Hūfia ʻakimautolu: he ʻoku mau ʻilo kuo ʻiate kimautolu ʻae ʻatamai lelei, pea ʻoku mau loto ke moʻui angatonu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē. Ka ʻoku ou kole ke mou tokanga lahi ki ai, koeʻuhi ke tuku au ke vave kiate kimoutolu. Ko eni, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe monūʻia, naʻa ne toe ʻomi mei he pekia ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu, ko e tauhi lahi ʻoe fanga sipi ʻi he taʻataʻa ʻoe fuakava taʻengata. ʻOfa ke ne ngaohi ʻakimoutolu ke mou haohaoa ʻi he ngaue lelei kotoa pē, ke fai hono finangalo, ʻo ne fai ʻiate kimoutolu ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi hono ʻao, ʻia Sisu Kalaisi; ke ʻiate ia ʻae ongoongolelei ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni. Pea ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, mou tali ʻae lea ʻoe akonaki ni: he kuo u tohi ʻae tohi kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi lea siʻi pe. ʻOku mou ʻilo kuo mamaʻo atu hotau kāinga ko Timote; ʻa ia, ka vave ʻene haʻu, te ma mamata mo ia kiate kimoutolu. ʻOfa atu kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fakahinohino ʻakimoutolu, mo e kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē. ʻOku ʻofa atu kiate kimoutolu kotoa ʻakinautolu ʻi ʻItali. Ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae ʻaloʻofa. ʻEmeni.
