Pea kuo pau ke mau folau ki ʻItali, naʻa nau tuku ʻa Paula mo e kau pōpula kehe ki he tokotaha ko Suliusi hono hingoa, ko e ʻeikitau ʻi he “Kongakau ʻa ʻAokositusi.” 
Pea naʻa mau heka ʻi he vaka mei ʻAtalamaito, naʻe te u folau ki he matātahi ʻo ʻEsia; pea naʻa mau fai ia, pea ko homau tokotaha ko ʻAlisitake, ko e Masitōnia mei Tesalonika. 
Pea pongipongi hake ai, naʻa mau tuku taula ʻi Saitoni. Pea naʻe ʻofa ʻa Suliusi kia Paula, ʻo ne tukuange ia ke ʻalu ki ʻuta, ke ne maʻu ʻae ʻofa ʻa hono kāinga. 
Pea kuo mau fai lā mei ai, pea mau folau mo fakaū ʻi Saipalo, he naʻe tokai ʻae matangi. 
Pea kuo mau folau ʻi he tahi ʻo Silisia mo Pamifilia, pea mau aʻu atu ki Maila ʻi Lisia. 
Pea ʻilo ai ʻe he ʻeikitau ʻae vaka mei ʻAlekisānitia, naʻe te u folau ki ʻItali; pea naʻa ne fakaheka ai ʻakimautolu. 
Pea kuo ʻaho lahi mo ʻemau folau siʻi pē, he naʻe tokai ʻae matangi, pea kuo mau feʻunga nai mo Naitusi, pea ne mau folau ʻo fakaū ʻi Keliti, ʻo ofi ki Salamone; 
Pea naʻe ʻikai mei tō ia, pea naʻa mau lava ki he potu ʻoku ui, Ko e taulanga lelei; ʻaia naʻe ofi ki ai ʻae kolo ko Lesea. 
Pea kuo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho lahi, pea kuo hoko ʻo faingataʻa ʻae folau, koeʻuhi kuo hili ʻae ʻaukai, pea valokiʻi ʻe Paula, 
‌ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻAe kau matāpule, ʻoku ou ʻilo ko e folau ni ʻe tuʻutāmaki mo kovi lahi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ki he ʻuta mo e vaka pē, ka ki heʻetau moʻui foki.” 
Ka naʻe tui lahi ʻae ʻeikitau ki he toutai mo e ʻeiki vaka, kae ʻikai ki he ngaahi meʻa naʻe leaʻaki ʻe Paula. 
Pea koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai lelei ʻae taulanga ke nau ʻi ai ʻi he faʻahitaʻu afā, pea pehē ʻe he tokolahi ke fusi taula, ʻo ʻahiʻahi ke nau lava ki Finesi, ke nau ʻi ai ʻi he faʻahitaʻu afā; ko e taulanga ia ʻi Keliti, pea ʻoku ava ia ki he tonga-hihifo mo e lulunga. 
Pea ʻi he angi iiki ʻae matangi tonga, pea nau pehē, kuo nau lavaʻi ia, naʻa nau fusi taula, ʻo folau ʻo ofi ki Keliti. 
Ka kuo fuofuoloa siʻi pē, pea puke ʻae matangi mālohi, ʻoku ui ko e “ʻUlokitone.” 
Pea ʻi he moʻua ai ʻae vaka, mo e ʻikai faʻa fakatauala, naʻa mau hafu ai. 
Pea ʻi heʻemau folau ʻo fakaū ʻi he motu ʻoku ui ko Kalauta, naʻe faingataʻa ʻaupito ʻemau maʻu mai ʻae vaka fokotuʻu: 
Pea kuo nau fusi hake ia, pea nau tāliu, ʻo haʻihaʻi ʻae vaka: pea tuku fanā, ko e manavahē naʻa toka ʻae vaka ʻi he ʻoneʻone holo, pea mau hafu pe. 
Pea ʻi heʻemau mātuʻaki tōmohopo ʻi he afā, ʻo pongipongi ai, naʻa nau tolo; 
Pea ʻi hono ʻaho tolu, naʻa nau laku ʻaki honau nima ʻae alanga vaka. 
Pea ʻi he ʻikai hā mai ʻae laʻā pe ko e fetuʻu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho lahi, pea ʻalo ʻae afā, naʻe mole ʻiate kimautolu ʻae ʻamanaki ki he moʻui. 
Pea kuo fuoloa mo e ʻaukai pē, pea toki tuʻu hake ʻa Paula ʻi honau ʻao, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻAe kau matāpule, naʻe totonu hoʻomou tui mai kiate au, ke ʻoua naʻa fusi taula ʻi Keliti, ke hoko ai ʻae kovi mo e maumau ni. 
Ka ko eni, ʻoku ou pehē atu kiate kimoutolu, “ke mou fiemālie: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai mate ha taha ʻiate kimoutolu, ka ko e vaka pē. 
He naʻe tuʻu ofi mai kiate au ʻi he poōni ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻana au, pea ko ia ʻoku ou tauhi. 
‌ʻO ne pehē mai, ‘ʻE Paula, ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē; he te ke aʻu atu koe ki he ʻao ʻo Sisa: 
Ko ia ʻae kau matāpule, ke mou fiemālie: he ʻoku ou tui ki he ʻOtua, ʻe fai ʻo hangē ko e meʻa kuo tala mai.” 
Ka ʻe tūkia ʻakitautolu ʻi ha motu ʻe taha. 
Pea kuo kakato ʻae pō ʻe hongofulu ma fā, pea kuo mau hafu fano ʻi he tahi ʻo ʻAtilia, pea tuʻuapō nai, pea mahalo ʻae kau vaka kuo nau ofi ki ha fonua; 
Pea naʻa nau tukutuku, pea ʻilo ko e ofa ʻe uangokumi: pea kuo nau ngaholo siʻi atu, pea toe tukutuku, pea ʻilo ko e ofa ʻe tekumi mā nima. 
Pea naʻa nau manavahē telia naʻa mau toka ʻi ha hakau, pea nau lī ʻae taula ʻe fā ʻi he taumuli, mo nau fakaʻamu ki he ʻaho. 
Pea naʻe fai ke feholaki ʻae kau kauvaka mei he vaka, he naʻa nau tuku hifo ʻae vaka fokotuʻu ki tahi, ʻo hangē ko haʻanau fie ʻave taula ki he taumuʻa; 
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Paula ki he ʻeikitau mo e kau tau, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai nofo ʻakinautolu ni ʻi he vaka, ʻe ʻikai te mou moʻui.” 
Pea naʻe toki tutuʻu ʻe he kau tau ʻae maea ʻoe vaka fokotuʻu, pea ʻauhia ia. 
Pea kuo ofi ʻae ʻaho, pea kole ʻa Paula kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ke nau kai, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hono hongofulu ma fā eni ʻoe ʻaho mo hoʻomou nofo, ʻo taʻefai-hoʻomou-keinanga. 
Pea ko ia ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu ke mou kai; ke mālohi ai homou sino: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai tō ʻi he ʻulu ʻo homou tokotaha ha tuʻoni louʻulu ʻe taha.” 
Pea kuo pehē ʻene lea, pea ne toʻo ʻae mā, ʻo fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua ʻi he ʻao ʻokinautolu kotoa pē: pea kuo ne pakiʻi ia, pea ne kamata kai. 
Pea naʻa nau toki fiefia kotoa pē, pea kai foki ʻekinautolu. 
Pea naʻa mau toko uangeau mo e toko fitungofulu ma toko ono ʻi he vaka. 
Pea hili ʻenau fakamaʻamaʻa ʻae vaka, ʻo tolo ʻae uite ki tahi. 
Pea ʻi heʻene ʻaho, naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae fonua: ka naʻa nau vakai ki he ava naʻe ai hono fanga, pea naʻa nau holi ʻo kapau ʻe mafai, ke fakaʻoho ai ʻae vaka. 
Pea kuo nau motuhi ʻae ngaahi taula, ʻo tuku pe ʻi tahi, pea veteange ʻae taufoe ʻoe foheʻuli, ʻonau fai ia, ke ʻalu ki ʻuta. 
Pea naʻa nau tō ki he potu ʻoku fetaulaki ai ʻae tahi ʻe ua, ʻonau fakatoka ai ʻae vaka; pea naʻe toka maʻu ʻae taumuʻa, pea ʻikai faʻa ueʻi, ka naʻe maumau hono taumuli ʻe he mālohi ʻoe peau. 
Pea naʻe fakakaukau ʻae kautau ke tāmateʻi ʻae kau pōpula, telia naʻa kakau ha niʻihi, ʻo hao. 
Ka naʻe fie fakamoʻui ʻa Paula ʻe he ʻeikitau mei honau loto, ko ia ne ne taʻofi ʻakinautolu; ʻo ne fekau kiate kinautolu ʻoku faʻa kakau ke nau hopo, ʻo muʻomuʻa ki ʻuta: 
Pea ko hono toe, ko e niʻihi ʻi he laupapa, ko e niʻihi ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻoe vaka. Pea fai fai ia pea mau hao kotoa pē ki ʻuta.
