Ko e Lea ‘a Pita ki he Kakaí

¹⁴ Ka ka hanga ‘a Pita, ‘o ne tu‘u hake mo e toko hongofulu-mā-taha, ‘o ne ofa‘aki ‘ene lea ‘o malanga kiate kinautolu, ‘o pehē, ‘A e tu‘unga Mātu‘a Siu, mo e taka Selusalema kotoa pē, ke mahino mu‘a ‘a e me‘a ni kiate kimoutolu, pea ke mou fakafanongo mai ki he‘eku lea:

¹⁵ he ‘oku ‘ikai ke konā ‘a e kakai na, ‘o hangē ko ho‘omou mahalo, he ko hono tolu pē ‘eni ‘o e houa pongipongi.

¹⁶ Ka ko eni ia na‘e folofola‘aki ‘i he palōfita ko Sioeli.

¹⁷ ‘Oku me‘a mai ‘a e ‘Otua, Pea ‘e hoko ‘o pehē ‘i he kuonga fakamui, te u lilingi ha me‘a mei hoku Laumālie ki he kakano kotoa pē; pea ‘e toki palofisai ‘e homou ngaahi foha mo homou ngaahi ‘ōfefine pea ko e kau talavou ‘omoutolu te nau mata vīsone, pea ko e mātu‘a ‘omoutolu te nau fa‘a misi:

¹⁸ ‘io, na‘a mo ‘eku kau tamaio‘eiki mo ‘eku kau kaunanga, te u lilingi ha me‘a mei hoku Laumālie kiate kinautolu foki ‘i he kuonga ko ia, pea te nau palofisai,

¹⁹ pea te u ‘ai ha ngaahi me‘a fakaofo ‘i he langi ‘i ‘olunga, mo ha ngaahi faka‘ilonga ki māmani ‘i lalo, ko e toto, mo e afi, mo e ngaahi pou kohu:

²⁰ ‘e liliu ‘a e la‘ā ‘o po‘uli, mo e māhina ‘o toto, ‘i he tei hoko ‘a e ‘aho ‘o e ‘Eiki, ‘a e ‘aho lahi mo ‘ilonga:

²¹ pea ‘e hoko ai ‘o pehē, ko ia te ne tautapa ki he huafa ‘o e ‘Eiki ‘e fakamo‘ui.

²² ‘a e tu‘unga Mātu‘a ‘Isileli, mou fanongo ki he‘eku fakamatala ni: Ko Sīsū mei Nāsaleti, ko e tangata ia na‘e fakamo‘oni ma‘ana mei he ‘Otua kiate kimoutolu, ‘aki ha ngaahi mana mo e ngaahi me‘a fakaofo mo e ngaahi faka‘ilonga, ‘a ia ne fai ‘iate ia ‘e he ‘Otua ‘i homou lotolotonga, ‘o hangē ko ia ‘oku mou lāu‘ilo ki ai.

²³ Ko e toko taha ko ia ne tukuange, pea mou nima‘aki ha kau hīteni, ‘o tukifa‘oa mo fakapoongi; ka kuo loa hono ‘osi tālanga‘i ‘i he ‘Otua, mo hono mu‘aki ‘afio‘i.

²⁴ Pea ne vete ‘e he ‘Otua hono kafai ‘e mate, ‘o toe fokotu‘u ia: kae fēfē, he na‘e ‘ikai lava ke mapuke ai ia.

²⁵ He ‘oku pehē ‘e Tēvita ‘i he‘ene lau kiate ia, Ne u sio fakalaka ki he ‘amui, ‘Oku ma fe‘ao ma‘u pē mo e ‘Eiki, He ‘oku ne tu‘u mei hoku to‘omata‘u Ke ‘oua na‘a maue‘i au.

²⁶ Ko ia na‘e neka ai ‘a hoto loto ni, Pea vīkiviki ‘a hoto ‘elelo ni, Kae‘uma‘ā ‘e ‘apitanga ‘amanaki pē ‘a hoto kakano ni.

²⁷ He tala‘ehai te ke li‘aki hoto laumālie ‘i Hētesi, ‘Uma‘ā ha‘o tuku ho Toko Taha Toputapu Ke ‘ilo ‘a e ‘au‘auha.

²⁸ Kuo ke faka‘ilo kiate au ha ngaahi hala ‘oku tau ki he mo‘ui; Te ke ‘ai ke u fonu nēkeneka, He feangai mo ho fofonga.

²⁹ Kāinga Mātu‘a; fakamolemole ka u lea atu pē ‘i he Pēteliake ko Tēvita; kuo pekia ia pea telio foki, kae‘uma‘ā ‘oku ‘iate kitautolu hono fonualoto ‘o a‘u ki he ‘aho ni.

³⁰ Ka ko e me‘a ‘i he‘ene palōfita, mo ‘ene ‘ilo kuo fuakava mo lea tuki kiate ia ‘e he ‘Otua, ‘e ai ha toko taha ‘i he kakano ‘o hono mānava, te ne ‘afio‘i hono taloni:

³¹ ko ia ‘i he‘ene sio fakalaka atu na‘a ne lea ki he toetu‘u ‘a e Mīsaia; he na‘e ‘ikai li‘aki ia ‘i Hētesi, pe ‘ilo ‘e hono kakano ‘a e ‘au‘auha.

³² Ko e Sīsū ko eni na‘e toe fokotu‘u ia ‘e he ‘Otua: pea ko kimautolu kotoa pē ko e kau fakamo‘oni ki ai.

³³ ‘Āua: pea ‘i hono hākeaki‘i leva ‘e he māfimafi ‘o e ‘Otua, mo ne ma‘u foki mei he Tamai ‘a e tala‘ofa ko e Laumālie Mā‘oni‘oni, na‘a ne lilingi mai ‘a e me‘a ni ‘a ia‘oku mou sio mo fanongo ki ai.

³⁴ He tala‘ehai ne ‘alu hake ‘a Tēvita ki he langi: kae‘uma‘ā ‘oku ne lau ‘e ia, Ne folofola ‘e he ‘Eiki ki hoku ‘Eiki, Nofo koe ‘i hoku to‘omata‘u.

³⁵ Kae‘oua ke u ngaohi ho ngaahi fili ko ho tu‘unga va‘e.

³⁶ Ko ia ke mātu‘aki ‘ilo ‘e ha‘a ‘Isileli kotoa pē, kuo fakanofo ‘e he ‘Otua ‘a e tangata ni ke ne ‘Eiki mo Mīsaia fakatou‘osi; ‘io, ‘a e Sīsū ko ia na‘a mou kalusefai‘i.

³⁷ Pea ‘i he‘enau fanongo ki ai, na‘e hūkia honau loto, pea nau pehē kia Pita mo e kau ‘Aposetolo kotoa pē, kāinga, ko e hā ‘amautolu ai ‘e fai?

³⁸ Pea pehē ‘e Pita kiate kinautolu, Mou fei mo fakatomala, pea takitaha papitaiso ‘i he huafa ‘o Sīsū ko e Mīsaia, ki he fakamolemole ‘o ho‘omou ngaahi angahala, pea te mou ma‘u ‘a e me‘a‘ofa ko e Laumālie Mā‘oni‘oni.

³⁹ He ‘oku ma‘amoutolu ‘a e tala‘ofa, pea mo ho‘omou fānau foki, mo kinautolu mama‘o, ‘io, ‘a kinautolu kotoa pē ‘e ui ange ‘e he ‘Eiki ko hotau ‘Otua.

⁴⁰ Pea na‘e lahi foki mo ‘ene ngaahi lea kehekehe na‘a ne fakamamafa ‘aki, mo ne toutou enginaki kinautolu, he‘ene pehē, Mou tuku kimoutolu ke fakamo‘ui mei he fa‘ahinga angakehe ko eni.

⁴¹ Pea na‘a nau tali ‘ene lea, ‘o nau papitaiso, pea na‘e fakaului mai ‘i he ‘aho pē ko ia ha ngaahi laumālie, fe‘unga nai mo e toko tolu afe.

⁴² Pea na‘a nau nofo faka‘utumauku ki he faiako ‘a e kau ‘Aposetolo, mo e fakakautaha, mo e pakipaki ‘o e mā, mo e ngaahi feingalotu.

Ko e Anga ‘o e Nofo ‘a e Kakai na‘e Tui ki he ‘Eikí

⁴³ Pea na‘e hoko ha ilifia ki he loto kotoa pē: na‘e lahi foki ‘a e ngaahi me‘a fakaofo mo e ngaahi faka‘ilonga na‘e hoko ‘i he kau ‘Aposetolo.

⁴⁴ Pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē na‘e tui na‘a nau fa‘a nofo fakataha, pea na‘a nau mātu‘aki me‘a taha.

⁴⁵ Pea nau fakatau atu honau ngaahi tofi‘a mo e nga‘oto‘ota; mo nau tufa ‘a e pa‘anga na‘e ma‘u ai ki he kakai kehekehe, ‘o fakatatau ki he‘enau masiva.

⁴⁶ Pea ko e ‘aho kotoa pē na‘a nau faka‘utumauku ‘o loto taha he ‘alu ki he Temipale, mo nau pakipaki mā ‘i ‘api; pea na‘a nau kai honau ‘inasi ‘i he fiefia mo e loto hangamālie;

⁴⁷ ‘o nau tuku kolōlia ki he ‘Otua, pea tokangaekina kinautolu ‘e he kakai kotoa. Pea na‘e fakaului ‘e he ‘Eiki ki he‘enau fakataha ‘i he ‘aho kotoa pē ‘a kinautolu kuo kamata mo‘ui.
