1.
Ko au Paula, ko e ʻaposetolo ʻa Sisu Kalaisi ʻi he finangalo ʻoe ʻOtua, mo hoku tehina ko Timote, 
Ki he kāinga māʻoniʻoni mo angatonu ʻia Kalaisi ʻoku ʻi Kolose: Ke ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻaloʻofa, mo e monūʻia, mei he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai pea mo e ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi. 
‌ʻOku ma fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua ko e Tamai ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ʻo hūfia maʻu pe ʻakimoutolu, 
Talu ʻema fanongo ki hoʻomou tui kia Kalaisi Sisu, pea mo hoʻomou ʻofa ki he kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē, 
Koeʻuhi ko e ʻamanaki lelei ʻaia kuo hilifaki ʻi he langi maʻamoutolu, ʻaia naʻa mou fanongo ki ai ʻi muʻa ʻi he lea ʻoe moʻoni ʻoe ongoongolelei; 
‌ʻAia kuo aʻu atu kiate kimoutolu, pea pehē foki ki māmani kotoa pē; pea ʻoku tupu ai ʻae fua, ʻo hangē foki ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu, talu ʻae ʻaho naʻa mou ongoʻi ʻo ʻilo moʻoni ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua: 
‌ʻO hangē ko ia foki kuo mou ʻilo meia Epafasi, ko homa kaungā tamaioʻeiki ʻofeina, ʻaia ko e faifekau angatonu ʻa Kalaisi kiate kimoutolu; 
‌ʻAia foki naʻe fakahā kiate kimoua hoʻomou ʻofa ʻi he Laumālie. 
Pea ko e meʻa ko ia foki, talu ʻae ʻaho naʻa ma fanongo ki ai, ʻoku ʻikai tuku ʻema hūfia ʻakimoutolu, pea mo e holi ke fakafonu ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae ʻilo ki hono finangalo ʻi he poto kotoa pē mo e ʻilo fakalaumālie; 
Pea ke mou ʻaʻeva ʻo taau mo e ʻEiki ʻo fakafiemālie ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, ke mou fua lahi ʻi he ngāue lelei kotoa pē, pea tupulekina ʻi he ʻiloʻi ʻae ʻOtua; 
Pea ke fakamālohi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae mafai kotoa pē, ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene mālohi lahi ʻaupito, ki he faʻa kātaki kotoa pē mo e kātaki fuoloa ʻi he fiefia; 
‌ʻO fakafetaʻi ki he Tamai, ʻaia kuo ne ngaohi ʻakitautolu ke tau taau ke kau ʻi he tofiʻa ʻoe kāinga māʻoniʻoni ʻi he maama: 
‌ʻAia kuo ne fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu mei he mālohi ʻoe poʻuli, pea kuo ne hiki ʻakitautolu ki he puleʻanga ʻo hono ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga: 
‌ʻAia ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻae huhuʻi ʻi hono taʻataʻa, ko e fakamolemole ʻoe ngaahi angahala: 
‌ʻAia ko hono tatau ʻoe ʻOtua taʻehāmai, ko e ʻuluaki fānau ʻi he meʻa fakatupu kotoa pē: 
He naʻe fakatupu ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he langi, pea mo ia ʻoku ʻi māmani, ʻae meʻa hā mai mo e taʻehāmai, pe ko e ngaahi nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki, pe ko e ngaahi ʻeikiʻanga, pe ko e ngaahi pule, pe ko e ngaahi mālohi: naʻe fakatupu ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, pea naʻe maʻana ia: 
Pea ʻoku ki muʻa ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, pea ʻoku tuʻumaʻu ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē. 
Pea ko e ʻulu ia ʻoe sino, ko e siasi: ʻaia ko e kamataʻanga, ko e ʻuluaki tupu mei he mate; koeʻuhi ke māʻolunga taha pe ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē. 
He naʻe leleiʻia ke nofo ʻae fonu kotoa pē ʻiate ia; 
Pea ʻi he fakamelino ʻaki ʻae taʻataʻa ʻi hono tutuki ki he ʻakau, ke fakalelei ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kiate ia; ʻiate ia, pe ko ha ngaahi meʻa ʻi māmani, pe ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻi he langi. 
Pea ko kimoutolu, naʻe ʻāuhē ko e ngaahi fili ʻi muʻa ʻi loto ʻi he ngaahi ngāue kovi, ka ko eni kuo ne fakalelei... 
‌ʻI he sino ʻo hono kakano, ʻi he mate, koeʻuhi ke ne ʻatu ʻakimoutolu ʻoku mou māʻoniʻoni mo taʻemele mo taʻevalokiʻia ʻi hono ʻao: 
‌ʻO kapau te mou tuʻumaʻu ʻi he tui ʻo aka mo tuʻu fakamakatuʻu, pea ʻikai hiki mei he ʻamanaki lelei ʻoe ongoongolelei, ʻaia naʻa mou fanongo, pea naʻe malangaʻaki ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻi lalo langi; ʻaia kuo fakanofo au ko Paula ko e faifekau ʻo ia; 
Pea ʻoku ou fiefia ni ʻi heʻeku ngaahi mamahi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, peau fakakakato ʻaia ʻoku toe ʻi he ngaahi mamahi ʻa Kalaisi ʻi hoku kakano koeʻuhi ko hono sino ʻoʻona, ʻaia ko e siasi. 
‌ʻAia kuo fakanofo au ko e faifekau ʻo ia, ʻo taau mo e tuʻutuʻuni ʻae ʻOtua naʻe foaki kiate au koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ke malanga lahi ʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua; 
Ko e meʻa fufū ʻaia naʻe fakalilolilo ki he ngaahi kuonga mo e ngaahi toʻutangata, ka kuo fakahā eni ki heʻene kakai māʻoniʻoni: 
‌ʻAkinautolu ʻoku finangalo ʻae ʻOtua ke fakahā ki ai ʻae koloa ʻoe lelei lahi ʻoe meʻa fakalilolilo ni ki he kakai Senitaile: ko Kalaisi ʻiate kimoutolu, ko e ʻamanaki lelei ki he hakeakiʻi: 
‌ʻAia ʻoku mau malangaʻaki, ʻo valoki ʻae tangata kotoa pē, mo akonakiʻi ʻae tangata taau taha ʻi he poto kotoa pē; koeʻuhi ke mau ʻatu ʻae tangata kotoa pē kuo haohaoa ʻia Kalaisi Sisu: 
‌ʻAe meʻa ko ia ʻoku ou ngāue ai foki, ʻi he fai feinga ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene ngāue, ʻaia ʻoku fai mālohi ʻaupito ʻiate au.
