Pea ko koe, “Foha ʻoe tangata, toʻo kiate koe ha hele māsila, toʻo kiate koe ʻae tele ʻae tangata tele kava, pea ke tele ʻaki ia ho ʻulu mo hoʻo halakava: pea ke toki toʻo ʻae meʻa fakatatau ke fakamamafa mo vahevahe ʻae louʻulu. 
Te ke tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ʻa hono vahe ʻe taha ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kolo, ʻoka kakato ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hono kāpui: pea te ke ʻave hono vahe ʻe taha mo ke taaʻi ia ʻaki ha hele: pea ke lī hono vahe ʻe taha ke vilingia ʻi he matangi; pea te u toho ha heletā mo tuli ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻi mui. 
Pea te ke toʻo foki ha tuʻoni louʻulu siʻi, ʻo nonoʻo ia ʻi he kapa ʻo ho kofu. 
Pea toe toʻo ia, ʻo lī ki he loto afi, ke vela ʻi he loto afi; he ko ia ʻe hoko mei ai ʻae afi ki he fale kotoa ʻo ʻIsileli.” 
¶ ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “Ko eni ʻa Selūsalema: kuo u fokotuʻu ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga mo e ngaahi fonua ʻoku tuʻu takatakai ʻi ai. 
Pea kuo ne liliu mei heʻeku māʻoniʻoni ke angahala lahi hake ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga, pea mei heʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻo lahi hake ʻi he ngaahi fonua ʻoku tuʻu takatakai ʻiate ia: he kuo nau liʻaki ʻeku māʻoniʻoni, mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau ʻo ʻikai te nau ʻaʻeva ai. 
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, koeʻuhi kuo ke fakaʻaʻau ʻo tokolahi hake ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku takatakai ʻiate koe, ʻo ʻikai ʻaʻeva ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fekau, pe maʻu ʻeku māʻoniʻoni, pe fai ke hangē ko e māʻoniʻoni ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku takatakai ʻiate koe; 
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, Vakai, ko au, ʻio, ko au, ʻoku tuʻu kiate koe, pea te u fai ʻae tautea kiate koe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga. 
Pea te u fai ʻiate koe ʻaia ʻoku teʻeki te u fai, pe te u toe fai ki mui hano tatau, koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ngaahi fakalielia. 
Ko ia ʻe kai ai ʻe he ngaahi tamai ʻa honau ngaahi foha ʻi loto ʻiate koe, pea kai ʻe he ngaahi foha ʻenau ngaahi tamai: pea te u fai ʻae fakamalaʻia ʻiate koe, pea ko e toenga ʻiate koe te u vilingia atu ki he feituʻu matangi kotoa pē.” 
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “ʻOku ou moʻui, pea ko e moʻoni ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo fakalielia ʻaki hoku fale tapu ʻa hoʻo ngaahi meʻa fakalielia mo hoʻo ngaahi ngāue ʻuli, ko ia te u fakaʻaʻau ai koe ki mui; pea ʻe ʻikai mamae hoku mata, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻiate au ha manavaʻofa. 
Ko e vahe ʻe taha ʻiate koe ʻe mate ʻi he mahaki fakaʻauha, pea te nau ʻauha hongea ʻi loto ʻiate koe; pea ko ho vahe ʻe taha ʻe tō hifo takatakai ʻiate koe ʻi he heletā: pea ko hono vahe ʻe taha te u vilingia ki he feituʻu matangi kotoa pē, pea te u tuli ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae heletā. 
‌ʻE pehē ʻae hoko ʻa ʻeku houhau, pea te u tuku ʻa ʻeku houhau ke nofo kiate kinautolu, pea te u fiemālie ai: pea te nau ʻilo ko au ko Sihova kuo lea ʻaki eni ʻi heʻeku fakamoʻomoʻoni, ʻo kau ka fakaʻosi ʻeku tuputāmaki kiate kinautolu. 
Pea te u ngaohi foki koe ke lala pea ko e manukiʻanga ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku takatakai ʻiate koe, ʻi he ʻao ʻokinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ange ʻiate koe. 
Ko ia ʻe hoko ai ia ko e manukiʻanga mo e taukaeʻanga, pea ko e ako mo e fakaofo ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoku takatakai ʻiate koe, ʻo kau ka fai ʻae fakamalaʻia ʻiate koe ʻi he tuputāmaki mo e houhau mo e valoki kakaha. Ko au ko Sihova kuo u lea ʻaki eni. 
‌ʻO kau ka fakahoko kiate kinautolu ʻae ngahau fakakona ʻoe honge, ʻaia ko e ʻauhaʻanga, ʻaia te u tuku atu ke fakaʻosi ʻakimoutolu: pea te u fakalahi ʻae honge kiate kimoutolu pea te u fesiʻi ʻae tokotoko ʻoe ma: 
‌ʻE pehē ʻeku fekau atu kiate kimoutolu ʻae honge mo e fanga manu fekai, pea te nau fakatokosiʻi ʻakimoutolu; pea ʻe ʻalu atu ʻiate koe ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha mo e toto; pea te u fakatō hifo kiate koe ʻae heletā, Ko au ko Sihova ʻoku lea ʻaki eni.”
