Pea kuo fakaʻosi ʻe Sisu ʻae ngaahi akonaki ni kotoa pē, pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, 
“ʻOku mou ʻilo ka hili ʻae ʻaho ʻe ua ʻe hoko ʻa e kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu, pea ʻe lavakiʻi ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ke tutuki ki he ʻakau.” 
Pea toki fakataha ai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau tangata tohi, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻoe kakai, ki he fale ʻoe taulaʻeiki lahi naʻe ui ko Kaiafasi, 
‌ʻonau fakakaukau pe fēfē ʻenau puke ia, kae tāmateʻi ia? 
Ka naʻa nau pehē, “Kae ʻikai ʻi he kātoanga, telia naʻa ai ha maveuveu ʻi he kakai.” 
¶ Pea naʻe ʻi Pētani ʻa Sisu, ʻi he fale ʻo Saimone ko e kilia, 
Mo ʻene haʻu kiate ia ha fefine, naʻe ʻomi ʻae puha ʻalapasita ʻoe lolo mahuʻinga lahi ʻaupito, ʻo ne lilingi ia ki hono fofonga, ʻi heʻene nofo ʻo taumafa. 
Ka ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻene kau ākonga, naʻa nau lea ʻita, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo maumauʻi ai eni? 
He naʻe mei fakatau ʻae lolo ni ʻaki ʻae koloa lahi, pea foaki ia ki he masiva.” 
Pea kuo ʻiloʻi ʻe Sisu, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou fakamamahi ai ki he fefine? He kuo fai ʻe ia ʻae ngāue lelei kiate au. 
He ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu maʻuaipē ʻae masiva; ka ʻoku ʻikai te mou maʻu maʻuaipē au. 
Koeʻuhi ʻi heʻene lilingi ʻae lolo ni ki hoku sino, kuo ne fai ia ko e teu ki hoku putu. 
Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko e potu kotoa pē ʻo māmani ʻe malangaʻaki ai ʻae ongoongolelei ni, ʻe fakahā ai foki ʻaia kuo fai ʻe he fefine ni, ko hono fakamanatuʻi.” 
¶ Pea toki ʻalu ki he kau taulaʻeiki lahi ha taha ʻoe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, naʻe ui ko Siutasi ʻIsikaliote, 
‌ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e hā te mou ʻomi kiate au, kau lavakiʻi ia kiate kimoutolu?” Pea nau alea mo ia ki he konga siliva ʻe tolungofulu. 
Pea talu mei ai mo ʻene lamasi ia ke tuʻumālie ʻa hono lavakiʻi. 
¶ Pea naʻe haʻu kia Sisu ʻae kau ākonga ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe mā taʻemeʻafakatupu, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke loto ke mau teuteu ʻi fē ke ke kai ai ʻi he Lakaatu.” 
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Mou ō ki he tangata ko ia ʻi he kolo, ʻo tala kiate ia, ‘ʻOku pehē mai ʻae ʻEiki, “Kuo ofi hoku ʻaho, pea te mau kai ʻae Lakaatu ʻi ho fale mo ʻeku kau ākonga.”’” 
Pea naʻe fai ʻe he kau ākonga ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu; pea nau teu ʻa e kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu. 
Pea kuo hoko ʻae efiafi, pea nofo ia mo e toko hongofulu ma toko ua. 
Pea ʻi heʻenau kai, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻe lavakiʻi au ʻe homou tokotaha.” 
Pea naʻa nau mamahi lahi, ʻonau taki taha kamata fehuʻi kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki, ko au ia?” 
Pea lea ia ʻo pehē, “Ko ia ʻokuma ʻai mo au homa nima ki he ipu kai, ko ia ia te ne lavakiʻi au. 
‌ʻOku ʻalu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi kiate ia: kae malaʻia ʻae tangata ko ia ʻaia ʻoku lavakiʻi ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata! Naʻe lelei ki he tangata ko ia ʻoka ne ʻikai fanauʻi ia.” 
Pea toki lea ʻa Siutasi, ʻaia ne lavakiʻi ia, ʻo pehēange, “ʻEiki, ko au ia?” Pea talaange ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko ia pe.” 
¶ Pea ʻi heʻenau kai, naʻe toʻo ʻe Sisu ʻae mā, ʻo ne fakafetaʻi, mo tofitofi, pea ʻatu ki he kau ākonga, ʻo ne pehē, “Toʻo, ʻo kai; ko eni hoku sino.” 
Pea ne toʻo ʻae ipu inu, ʻo fakafetaʻi, pea ʻoatu kiate kinautolu, mo ne pehē, “Mou inu ai kotoa pē: 
He ko hoku toto eni ʻoe fuakava foʻou, ʻaia ʻoku lilingi ke fakamolemole ai ʻae angahala ʻae tokolahi. 
Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ngata heni, ʻe ʻikai te u toe inu ʻi he fua ni ʻoe vaine, kaeʻoua ke hokosia ʻae ʻaho ko ia te u inu foʻou ia mo kimoutolu ʻi he puleʻanga ʻo ʻeku Tamai.” 
Pea kuo hili ʻenau hiva, pea nau ʻalu atu ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOlive. 
Pea toki pehē ai ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻE tūkia ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻi he poōni ʻiate au: he kuo tohi, ‘Te u taaʻi ʻae tauhi, pea ʻe movetevete ai ʻae fanga sipi.’ 
Kae hili ʻeku toetuʻu, te u muʻomuʻa ʻiate kimoutolu ki Kaleli.” 
Pea lea ʻa Pita, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “Kapau ʻe tūkia kotoa pē ʻiate koe, ʻe ʻikai te u tūkia ʻo lauikuonga. 
Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “ʻOku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate koe, ʻE teʻeki ai ʻuʻua ʻae moa ʻi he poōni, ka ʻe liunga tolu hoʻo fakafisi ʻiate au.” 
Pea talaange ʻe Pita kiate ia, “Kapau te u mate ai mo koe, kae ʻikai te u fakafisiʻi koe.” Pea lea pehē pe foki ʻae kau ākonga kotoa pē. 
¶ Pea toki haʻu ai ʻa Sisu mo kinautolu ki he potu ʻoku ui ko Ketisemani, ʻo ne pehē ki he kau ākonga, “Mou nofo ʻi heni, kau ʻalu ki hena ʻo lotu.” 
Pea ne ʻave ʻa Pita mo e foha ʻe toko ua ʻo Sepeti, pea kamata mamahiʻia ia mo māfasia lahi. 
Pea toki pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mamahi lahi ʻaupito, ʻo hangē ka mate, hoku laumālie: mou nofo pe ʻi heni, ke tau leʻo mo au.” 
Pea ʻalu siʻi atu ia, ʻo tō fakafoʻohifo, ʻo pehē ʻene lotu, “ʻA ʻeku Tamai, kapau ʻe faʻa fai, pea ʻave ʻae ipu ni ʻiate au: kaeʻoua naʻa faʻiteliha pe au, ka ko koe pe.” 
Pea haʻu ia ki he kau ākonga, ʻo ne ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻoku mohe, pea ne pehē kia Pita, “He ʻoku pehē, kuo ʻikai te mou faʻa leʻo mo au ʻi he feituʻu pō ʻe taha? 
Leʻo mo lotu, telia naʻa lavaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he ʻahiʻahi: ko e moʻoni ʻoku fie fai ʻe he laumālie, ka ʻoku vaivai ʻae kakano.” 
Pea toe ʻalu atu ia ko hono liunga ua, ʻo lotu, ʻo pehē, “ʻA ʻeku Tamai, kapau ʻe ʻikai lelei ke ʻave ʻae ipu ni ʻiate au, ka ʻi heʻeku inumia ia, ke fai pe hoʻo faʻiteliha.” 
Pea haʻu ia ʻo ne ʻilo ʻoku nau toe mohe: he naʻe māfasia honau mata. 
Pea tuku ai pe ʻe ia ʻakinautolu, kae toe ʻalu atu, ʻo lotu ko hono liunga tolu, ʻo ne toe fai pē ʻae lea ko ia. 
Pea toki haʻu ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Maʻu pe hoʻomou mohe ni, pea mālōlō: vakai, kuo ofi ʻae feituʻu pō ʻe lavakiʻi ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ki he nima ʻoe kau angahala. 
Tuʻu hake, ke tau ʻalu: vakai, ʻoku ʻi heni ia ʻoku ne lavakiʻi au.” 
¶ Pea lolotonga ʻene lea, ʻiloange, ko Siutasi, ko e taha ʻoe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, naʻe haʻu ia mo e kakai tokolahi, mo e ngaahi heletā, mo e ʻakau, mei he kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau mātuʻa ʻoe kakai. 
Pea ko ia naʻa ne lavakiʻi ia, naʻa ne tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae fakaʻilonga, ʻo ne pehē, “Ka ʻilonga ʻaia te u ʻuma ki ai, ko ia ia: puke ia ke maʻu.” 
Pea haʻu leva ia kia Sisu, ʻo ne pehē, “Lāpai, siʻotoʻofa:” pea ʻuma kiate ia. 
Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Kāinga, ko e hā kuo ke haʻu ai?” Pea toki haʻu ʻakinautolu, ʻo ala honau nima kia Sisu, ʻo puke ia. 
Pea vakai, ko e taha ʻonautolu naʻe ʻia Sisu, naʻe ʻai hono nima ki heʻene heletā ʻo toho, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻaki ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, pea motuhi hono telinga. 
Pea toki pehē ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Toe ʻai hoʻo heletā ki hono ʻaiʻanga: he ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku toʻo heletā te nau ʻauha ʻi he heletā. 
‌ʻOku ke mahalo ʻe ʻikai te u faʻa lotu ni ki heʻeku Tamai, pea te ne tuku leva ni kiate au ʻae kau ʻāngelo ke lahi ʻi he lisione ʻe hongofulu ma ua? 
Kae fakamoʻoni fēfē ʻae ngaahi tohi, ʻaia ʻoku fakahā ai ʻe pehē ni pe?” 
‌ʻI he feituʻu pō ko ia naʻe lea ai ʻa Sisu ki he kakai lahi, “ʻOku mou haʻu mo e ngaahi heletā mo e ʻakau ke puke au, ʻo hangē ko ha kaihaʻa? Naʻaku nofo mo kimoutolu ʻo ako ʻi he falelotu lahi, ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou puke au. 
Ka kuo fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē, ke fakamoʻoni ʻae ngaahi tohi ʻae kau palōfita.” Pea naʻe toki liʻaki ia ʻe he kau ākonga kotoa pē, ka nau feholaki. 
¶ Pea ko kinautolu naʻe puke ʻa Sisu naʻa nau tataki ia kia Kaiafasi ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, pea kātoa ai ʻae kau tangata tohi mo e kau mātuʻa. 
Ka naʻe muimui mamaʻo atu kiate ia ʻa Pita, ki he fale ʻoe taulaʻeiki lahi, pea hū ki ai, ʻonau nonofo mo e kau tamaioʻeiki, ke mamata ki hono ikuʻanga. 
Pea kumi ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e mātuʻa, mo e kau fakamaau kotoa pē, ʻae fakamoʻoni loi kia Sisu, kae tāmateʻi ia; 
Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ha taha: naʻe haʻu ʻae fakamoʻoni loi tokolahi, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ha taha. Pea toki ʻomi fakamui ʻae ongo fakamoʻoni loi ʻe toko ua, 
‌ʻo na pehē, “naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ‘ʻOku ou faʻa fai ke veteki ʻae falelotu lahi ʻoe ʻOtua, mo toe langa ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu.’” 
Pea tuʻu hake ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ʻikai hao lea ki ai? Ko e hā ia ʻoku nau fakaʻilo ni kiate koe?” 
Ka naʻe longo pē ʻa Sisu. Pea lea ʻae taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, “ʻOku ou fekau mālohi kiate koe ʻi he ʻOtua moʻui, ke ke fakahā mai kiate kimautolu, pe ko e Kalaisi ʻa koe, ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua.” 
Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko ia pe: ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Te mou mamata ʻa mui ki he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻoku nofo ki he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe māfimafi, pea mo ʻene haʻu ʻi he ngaahi ʻao ʻoe langi.” 
Pea toki haehae ʻe he taulaʻeiki lahi hono kofu, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo lea fie ʻOtua ia; koeʻumaʻā kiate kitautolu ha toe fakamoʻoni? Vakai, kuo mou fanongo ni ki heʻene lea fie ʻOtua. 
Ko e hā homou loto?” Pea nau lea, ʻo pehēange, “ʻOku totonu ke ne mate.” 
Pea naʻa nau toki ʻaʻanu ki hono mata, ʻo tukiʻi ia; pea sipiʻi ia ʻe he niʻihi ʻaki honau ʻaofinima, 
‌ʻo pehēange, “ʻA koe, Kalaisi, mate mai kiate kimautolu, ko hai ia naʻa ne sipiʻi koe?” 
¶ Pea naʻe nofo ʻituʻa ʻa Pita ʻi he lotoʻā; pea haʻu ʻae fefine kaunanga kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko koe foki naʻa ke ʻia Sisu ʻo Kaleli.” 
Ka naʻe fakafisi leva ia ʻi he ʻao ʻokinautolu kotoa pē, mo ne pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻilo hoʻo lea.” 
Pea ʻalu atu ia ki he potu ʻe taha ʻoe fale, pea mamata kiate ia ʻa e kaunanga ʻe taha, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, naʻe ʻi ai, “Naʻe ʻia Sisu ʻo Nāsaleti ʻae tangata ni foki.” 
Pea toe fakafisi ia mo fuakava, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻiloa ʻae tangata.” 
Pea fuoloa siʻi pea haʻu kiate ia ʻakinautolu naʻe tutuʻu ai, ʻonau pehē kia Pita, “Ko e moʻoni ko e tokotaha koe ʻokinautolu; he ʻoku fakaʻilo koe ʻe hoʻo lea.” 
Pea toki kamata kape ia mo fuakava, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻiloa ʻae tangata.” Pea naʻe ʻuʻua leva ʻae moa. 
Pea manatu ai ʻe Pita ki he lea ʻa Sisu, ʻaia naʻe pehē kiate ia, “ʻE teʻeki ai ʻuʻua ʻae moa, kae tuʻo tolu haʻo fakafisiʻi au.” Pea ʻalu kituaʻā ia, ʻo tangi mamahi.
