Palōveepi 25:1-28
25 Ko e ngaahi palōveepi foki eni ʻa Solomone+ ʻa ia naʻe hiki* ʻe he kau tangata ʻa Hesekaia+ ko e tuʻi ʻo Siutá:
2 Ko e lāngilangi ʻo e ʻOtuá ke tauhi ha meʻa ke fakapulipuli,+Pea ko e lāngilangi ʻo e ngaahi tuʻí ke fekumi ki ha meʻa.
3 Hangē ko e māʻolunga ʻo e langí mo e loloto ʻo e māmaní,ʻOku pehē ʻa e ʻikai ala fakatotoloa ʻa e loto ʻo e ngaahi tuʻí.
4 Toʻo ʻa e ʻulí mei he silivá,Pea ʻe hoko ia ko ha siliva kuo sivi fakaʻaufuli.+
5 Toʻo ʻa e tokotaha fulikivanú mei he ʻao ʻo e tuʻí,Pea ʻe fokotuʻu maʻu ʻa hono taloní ʻi he māʻoniʻoni.+
6 ʻOua naʻá ke fakalāngilangiʻi koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo e tuʻí,+Pea ʻoua naʻá ke nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e kau tuʻu-ki-muʻá,+
7 He ʻoku lelei ange ke ne pehē atu kiate koe, “Haʻu ki heni,”
ʻI hano fakamaaʻi koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo ha ʻeiki.+
8 ʻOua naʻá ke fakavave ki ha fakakikihi fakalao,He ko e hā te ke fai ʻamui ʻi hano fakamaaʻi koe ʻe ho kaungāʻapí?+
9 Lāulea ki hoʻo meʻá mo ho kaungāʻapí,+Kae ʻoua naʻá ke fakaeʻa ʻa e meʻa kuo fakahaaʻi fakapulipuli kiate koé,*+
10 Koeʻuhí ke ʻoua naʻa fakamaaʻi koe ʻe he tokotaha ʻoku fanongóPeá ke fakamafola ai ha fakamatala ʻoku kovi* ʻa ia ʻe ʻikai lava ke toe fakafoki.
11 Hangē ha ʻāpele koula ʻi ha ʻaiʻanga meʻa* siliváʻOku pehē ʻa e lea ʻoku fai ʻi he taimi totonú.+
12 Hangē ha hau koula mo ha meʻa-teuteu mei he koula leleíʻOku pehē ʻa e tokotaha valoki potó ki he telinga fiefanongó.+
13 Hangē tofu pē ko e momoko ʻa e sinoú ʻi he ʻaho utu-taʻúʻOku pehē ha tokotaha talafekau faitōnunga ki he faʻahinga naʻa nau fekau atu iá,He ʻokú ne fakaivifoʻou ʻa hono ʻeikí.+
14 Hangē ha ngaahi konga ʻao mo ha matangi ʻoku ʻikai te na ʻomi ha ʻuháʻOku pehē ʻa e tangata ʻoku pōlepole ʻo fekauʻaki mo ha meʻaʻofa naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito ke ne foaki.*+
15 ʻI he kātakí ʻoku ikuʻi mai ai ha pule,Pea ko ha ʻelelo molū* ʻoku lava ke ne fesi ha hui.+
16 Kapau te ke maʻu ha hone, kai ʻa e meʻa pē ʻokú ke fiemaʻú,He kapau te ke kai ʻo fuʻu lahi, te ke luaʻaki ia.+
17 Ke tātātaha pē ʻa hoʻo tuʻu ki he fale ʻo ho kaungāʻapí,Koeʻuhí ke ʻoua naʻá ne pāhia ai ʻiate koe peá ne fehiʻa ʻiate koe.
18 Hangē ha pōvai mo ha heletā mo ha ngahau māsiláʻOku pehē ʻa e tangata ʻokú ne fai ha fakamoʻoni loi ki hono kaungāʻapí.+
19 Hangē ha nifo kuo motu pe ko ha vaʻe ʻoku ʻikai ke tuʻu maʻúʻOku pehē ʻa e falala ki ha tokotaha taʻefalalaʻanga* ʻi he taimi faingataʻá.
20 Hangē ha tokotaha ʻokú ne vete ʻa hono kofú ʻi ha ʻaho momokoPea hangē ko e vinika kuo lingi ki he sotá*ʻOku pehē ʻa e tokotaha ʻokú ne fai ha hiva ki ha loto ʻoku fakaumiuminoa.+
21 Kapau ʻoku fiekaia ho filí,* ʻoange ha mā ke ne kai;Kapau ʻokú ne fieinua, ʻoange ha vai ke ne inu,+
22 He te ke fokotuʻu ai ha ngaahi malalaʻi afi ki hono ʻulú,*+Pea ʻe fakapaleʻi koe ʻe Sihova.
23 Ko e matangi mei he tokelaú ʻokú ne ʻomai ha ʻuha lōvai,Pea ko ha ʻelelo lau ʻokú ne ʻomai ha mata ʻita.+
24 ʻOku lelei ange ke nofo ʻi ha tuliki ʻi he funga faléʻI ha nofo ʻi he fale tatau mo ha uaifi fakatupu kē.*+
25 Hangē ko e vai momoko ki ha tokotaha ongosiáʻOku pehē ʻa e ongoongo lelei mei ha fonua mamaʻó.+
26 Hangē ko ha matavai kuo pelepela mo ha vaitupu kuo ʻuliʻíʻOku pehē ʻa e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻoku ʻulutukua ki ha* tokotaha fulikivanú.
27 ʻOku ʻikai lelei ke kai ʻo fuʻu lahi ʻa e honé,+Pea ʻoku ʻikai foki ko ha lāngilangi ia ʻa ʻete kumi ki he lāngilangi pē ʻoʻotá.+
28 Hangē ko ha kolo kuo holo, ʻo ʻikai hano ʻaá,ʻOku pehē ʻa e tangata ʻoku ʻikai lava ke ne mapuleʻi ʻa ʻene ʻitá.*+
