Pea toe ono ʻae ʻaho pea fai ʻae kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu, pea haʻu ʻa Sisu ki Pētani, naʻe ʻi ai ʻa Lasalosi ʻaia naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe ia mei he mate. 
Pea naʻa nau te u ai kiate ia ʻae ʻohomohe: pea tauhi ʻe Māʻata: ka ko e tokotaha ʻa Lasalosi ʻokinautolu naʻe nofo mo ia ʻi he keinangaʻanga. 
Pea toʻo ʻe Mele ʻae lolo ko e naʻati moʻoni, ko e lau taha hono mamafa, ko e koloa lahi, ʻo ne tākai ʻaki ʻae vaʻe ʻo Sisu, ʻo holoholo ʻaki hono vaʻe ʻa hono louʻulu: pea naʻe pito ʻae fale ʻi he namu lelei ʻoe lolo. 
Pea lea ai ʻae tokotaha ʻo ʻene ākonga, ko Siutasi ʻIsikaliote, ko e foha ʻo Saimone, ʻaia ʻe lavakiʻi ia, 
“Ko e hā naʻe ʻikai fakatau ai ʻae lolo ni ʻaki ʻae tenali ʻe tolungeau, pea foaki ki he masiva?” 
Naʻa ne lea ʻaki eni, ka naʻe ʻikai ko ʻene tokanga ki he masiva; ka koeʻuhi ko e kaihaʻa ia, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae kato, ʻo ne fua ʻaia naʻe tuku ki ai. 
Pea lea ai ʻa Sisu, “Tuku ai pe ia: kuo tauhi ʻe ia ʻae meʻa ni ki he ʻaho ʻo hoku tanu. 
He ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu maʻuaipē ʻae masiva; ka ʻoku ʻikai teu ʻiate kimoutolu maʻuaipē au.” 
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe he tokolahi ʻoe kakai Siu ʻoku ʻi ai ia: pea naʻa nau haʻu, ka naʻe ʻikai koeʻuhi ko Sisu pe, ka koeʻuhi ke nau mamata kia Lasalosi foki, ʻaia naʻa ne fokotuʻu mei he mate. 
¶ Ka naʻe alea ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi, ke nau tāmateʻi ʻa Lasalosi foki; 
Koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ʻiate ia naʻe mahuʻi ʻae tokolahi ʻoe kau Siu, ʻo tui kia Sisu. 
¶ ʻI he ʻaho naʻa na feholoi, naʻe fanongo ʻae kakai tokolahi kuo haʻu ki he kātoanga, ʻoku haʻu ʻa Sisu ki Selūsalema, 
Naʻa nau toʻo mai ʻae ngaahi vaʻa ponga, ʻonau ʻalu atu ke fakafetaulaki kiate ia, ʻonau kalanga, “Hosana: ʻOku monūʻia ʻae Tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻoku hāʻele mai ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova.” 
Pea kuo maʻu ʻe Sisu ʻae ʻasi mui, naʻa ne heka ai; ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi, 
“ʻE taʻahine ʻo Saione, ʻoua ʻe manavahē: vakai, ʻoku haʻu ho Tuʻi, ʻoku heka ki he ʻuhikiʻi ʻasi.” 
Ko e ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe ʻikai tomuʻa ʻilo ʻe heʻene kau ākonga; ka ʻi he hakeakiʻi ʻa Sisu, naʻa nau manatu ai kuo tohi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kiate ia, pea kuo nau fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kiate ia. 
Pea naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻae kakai ko ia naʻe ʻiate ia ʻi heʻene ui ʻa Lasalosi mei he tanuʻanga, ʻo ne fokotuʻu ia mei he mate. 
Ko ia naʻe fakafetaulaki ai ʻae kakai kiate ia, he naʻa nau fanongo kuo ne fai ʻae mana ni. 
Pea ko ia naʻe alea ai ʻae kau Fālesi ʻiate kinautolu, ʻIkai te mou vakai ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito te mou lavaʻi ha meʻa? “Vakai, kuo muimui ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻiate ia.” 
¶ Pea naʻe ai ʻae kau Kiliki niʻihi ʻiate kinautolu naʻe ʻalu hake ke hū ʻi he kātoanga. 
Pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Filipe, ʻaia naʻe ʻo Petesaita ʻi Kāleli, ʻonau kole kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ʻEiki, ʻoku mau fie mamata kia Sisu. 
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Filipe ʻo tala kia ʻAnitelū: pea toe tala kia Sisu ʻe ʻAnitelū mo Filipe. 
¶ Pea leaange ʻa Sisu kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Kuo hokosia ʻae ʻaho, ke fakaongoongolelei ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata. 
Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Kapau ʻoku ʻikai mokulu ʻae tengaʻi uite ki he kelekele pea mate, ʻoku nofo taha ai pe: ka ʻi heʻene mate, ʻoku tupu mei ai ʻae fua lahi. 
Ko ia ʻoku ʻofa ki heʻene moʻui, ʻe mole ia ʻiate ia; pea ko ia ʻoku fehiʻa ki heʻene moʻui ʻi he māmani, te ne maʻu ia ki he moʻui taʻengata. 
Kapau ʻoku tauhi au ʻe ha tangata, tuku ke ne muimui ʻiate au; pea ko e potu teu ʻi ai, ʻe ʻi ai foki ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki: kapau ʻoku tauhi au ʻe ha tangata, ʻe fakaongoongolelei ia ʻe he Tamai. 
“Ko eni kuo mamahi hoku laumālie; pea ko e hā ʻeku lea? Te u pehē, ʻE Tamai, fakamoʻui au mei he ʻaho ni? Ka naʻaku haʻu koeʻuhi ke u hokosia ʻae ʻaho ni. 
‌ʻE Tamai, fakaongoongolelei ho huafa.” Pea naʻe hoko mai ʻae leʻo ni mei he langi, “Kuo u fakaongoongolelei ia, pea te u toe fakaongoongolelei ia.” 
Pea ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he kakai naʻe tutuʻu ai, mo ongoʻi ia, ko e mana: pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “Ko e ʻāngelo ʻoku lea kiate ia.” 
Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻe ʻikai ongo mai ʻae leʻo ni koeʻuhi ko au, ka koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu. 
Ko eni ʻae fakamaau ʻoe māmani ʻe kapusi eni ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe māmani kituaʻā, 
Pea kapau ʻe hiki au ki ʻolunga mei he fonua, te u tohoaki ʻae kakai kotoa pē kiate au.” 
Ko ʻene lea pehē, ko e fakahā ʻae mateʻanga ko ia ʻe mate ai ia. 
Pea leaange ʻae kakai kiate ia, “Kuo mau fanongo mei he fono ʻoku nofo ʻae Kalaisi ʻo taʻengata: pea ʻoku fēfē hoʻo lau, ʻE hiki hake ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata? ʻE fēfē nai ʻae Foha ko ia ʻoe tangata? 
Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻE toetoe siʻi pe ʻene ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae maama. ʻEveʻeva lolotonga hoʻomou maʻu ʻae maama telia naʻa tō ʻae poʻuli kiate kimoutolu: he ko ia ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he poʻuli, ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻe ia pe ko ʻene ʻalu ki fē. 
‌ʻI hoʻomou kei maʻu ʻae maama, tui ki he maama, koeʻuhi ke mou hoko ko e fānau ʻae maama.” Naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Sisu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, pea ʻalu, ʻo ne fufū ia ʻiate kinautolu. 
¶ He kuo fai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi mana lahi ʻi honau ʻao, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau tui kiate ia: 
Pea naʻe fakamoʻoni ai ʻae lea ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia, ʻaia naʻe pehē, “ʻEiki, ko hai kuo tui ki heʻemau fakaongoongoa? Pea kuo fakahā kia hai ʻae nima ʻo Sihova?” 
Ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai te nau faʻa tui, he naʻe toe tala foki ʻe ʻIsaia, 
“Kuo fakakui ʻe ia honau mata, ʻo fakafefeka honau loto; ke ʻoua naʻa nau vakai ʻaki honau mata, pe ʻilo ʻaki honau loto, pea liliu, peau fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.” 
Ko e ngaahi meʻa ni naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe ʻIsaia, ʻi heʻene mamata ki hono nāunau, pea ne lea kiate ia. 
¶ Pea naʻe tui kiate ia ʻae tokolahi ʻi he kau pule foki; ka ko e meʻa ʻi he kau Fālesi, naʻe ʻikai te nau fakahā ia, telia naʻa kapusi ʻakinautolu mei he falelotu: 
He naʻe lahi ʻenau manako ki he fakamālō ʻae tangata ʻi he fakamālō ʻae ʻOtua. 
¶ Pea kalanga ʻa Sisu ʻo pehē, “Ko ia ʻoku tui kiate au, ʻoku ʻikai tui kiate au pe, ka kiate ia naʻa ne fekau au. 
Pea ko ia ʻoku ne mamata kiate au, ʻoku ne mamata kiate ia naʻa ne fekau au. 
Kuo u haʻu au ko e maama ki māmani, koeʻuhi ko ia ʻe tui kiate au ke ʻoua naʻa nofo ia ʻi he poʻuli. 
Pea kapau ʻoku fanongo ha tangata ki heʻeku ngaahi lea, kae ʻikai tui, ʻoku ʻikai te u fakamaauʻi ia: he naʻe ʻikai te u haʻu ke fakamaauʻi ʻa māmani, ka ke fakamoʻui ʻa māmani. 
Ko ia ʻoku ne liʻaki au ʻo ʻikai maʻu ʻeku ngaahi lea, ʻoku ai ha taha ʻoku fakamaauʻi ia: ko e lea kuo u lea ʻaki, ko ia te ne fakamaauʻi ia ʻi he ʻaho fakamui. 
He naʻe ʻikai te u lea ʻiate au; ka ko e Tamai naʻa ne fekau au, kuo ne puleʻi au ʻi he meʻa te u fekau, mo ia te u lea ʻaki. 
Pea ʻoku ou ʻilo ko ʻene fekau ko e moʻui taʻengata: ko ia ko e meʻa ʻoku ou lea ʻaki, ʻoku ou lea ʻaki ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻae Tamai kiate au.”
