Ko E Tohi ʻae Palōfita Ko ʻIsikieli.
1.
Ko eni, ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono tolungofulu ʻoe taʻu, mo hono fā ʻoe māhina, pea ʻi hono nima ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina ʻo ʻeku ʻi he kakai pōpula ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ʻo Kipa, naʻe fakaava ʻae ngaahi langi pea naʻaku mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa hā mai mei he ʻOtua. 
‌ʻI hono nima ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina ʻi hono nima taʻu ʻoe fakapōpulaʻi ʻae tuʻi ko Sihoiakimi. 
Naʻe hoko totonu mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻIsikieli ko e taulaʻeiki, ko e foha ʻo Posi, ʻi he fonua, ʻoe kau Kalitia, ʻi he potu vaitafe ko Kipa; pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae nima ʻo Sihova ʻi ai. 
Pea naʻaku sio, pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae ʻahiohio mei he tokelau ko e fuʻu ʻao lahi, mo e afi naʻe femamioʻaki, pea naʻe takatakai ia ʻe he maama, pea kikila mai mei hono potu ʻi loto ʻo hangē ko e ʻamipa, mei he loto afi. 
Pea naʻe haʻu foki mei he loto meʻa ʻae tatau ʻoe meʻa moʻui ʻe fā. Pea ko e anga eni ʻo ʻenau hā mai. Naʻa nau mata tatau mo e tangata. 
Pea naʻa nau taki taha ʻae mata ʻe fā, pea nau taki taha ʻae kapakau ʻe fā. 
Pea ko honau vaʻe ko e vaʻe totonu: pea tatau ʻa honau ʻaofivaʻe mo e ʻaofivaʻe ʻoe ʻuhikiʻi pulu: pea naʻe ulo ʻo hangē ko e ulo ʻoe palasa kuo fakangingila. 
Pea naʻa nau nima ʻo hangē ko e tangata ʻi honau lalo kapakau ʻi honau potu ʻe fā; pea naʻe ʻi honau potu ʻe fā ʻae mata mo e kapakau. 
Naʻe feuutaki honau kapakau; pea naʻe ʻikai fetafokiʻaki ʻenau ʻalu; ka naʻe taki taha ʻalu fakahangatonu atu. 
Pea ko e meʻa ki honau mata, naʻe maʻu ʻe he toko fā ni ʻae mata ʻoe tangata, mo e mata ʻoe laione ki he toʻomataʻu: pea maʻu ʻe he toko fā ni ʻae mata ʻoe pulu ki he toʻohema, pea maʻu foki ʻe he toko fā ni ʻae mata ʻoe ʻikale. 
Naʻe pehē ʻae anga ʻo honau mata: pea naʻe mafola honau kapakau ki ʻolunga; naʻe taki taha hono kapakau ʻe ua naʻe fepikitaki, pea ko e ua naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki honau sino. 
Pea naʻe taki taha ʻalu fakahangatonu atu pe: ko ia ne ʻalu ki ai ʻae laumālie, ko ia ia naʻa nau ʻalu ki ai, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau tafoki ʻi heʻenau ʻalu. 
Pea ko e tatau ʻoe meʻa moʻui ʻe fā, naʻe hangē ko e ulo ʻae fefie ʻi he afi, pea ko e ulo ʻae tuʻunga maama naʻe ʻalu hake ia mo ʻalu hifo ʻi he haʻohaʻonga ʻoe ngaahi meʻa moʻui; pea naʻe ulo lahi ʻae afi pea ʻasi mai ʻae ʻuhila mei he afi. 
Pea naʻe lele mo toe foki mai ʻae ngaahi meʻa moʻui ʻo hangē ko e ulo ʻoe ʻuhila. 
Pea ko eni, lolotonga ʻeku sio ki he ngaahi meʻa moʻui, vakai, ko e teka ʻe taha naʻe tuʻu ki he kelekele ʻi he tafaʻaki ʻoe ngaahi meʻa moʻui, pea mo hono mata ʻe fā. 
Pea ko e anga ʻoe ngaahi teka mo hono ngaohi naʻe hangē ko e lanu ʻoe pelili: pea naʻe tatau ʻae meʻa ni ʻe fā: pea naʻe hā mai hono ngaohi naʻe hangē kuo ʻai ʻae teka ʻe taha ʻi he loto teka ʻe taha. 
‌ʻI heʻenau ʻalu naʻa nau ʻalu ʻi honau tafaʻaki ʻe fā: pea naʻe ʻikai ke tafoki ʻi heʻenau ʻalu. 
Pea ko honau ngaahi meʻa tākai naʻe fakaʻulia ko e meʻa ʻi hono māʻolunga lahi; pea naʻe pito ʻa honau meʻa tākai ʻi he mata ʻo takatakai ʻi he meʻa ni ʻe fā. 
‌ʻI heʻene ʻalu ʻae ngaahi meʻa moʻui, naʻe ʻalu ai pe mo e ngaahi teka, pea ka hiki hake ʻae ngaahi meʻa moʻui mei he kelekele, naʻe hiki ai pe mo e ngaahi teka. 
Ko e potu kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu ki ai ʻae laumālie, naʻa nau ʻalu ai, ko ia ia ʻe ʻalu ki ai honau laumālie; pea naʻe hiki hake ʻo fakahangatonu mai ʻae ngaahi teka kiate kinautolu: he ko e laumālie ʻoe meʻa moʻui naʻe ʻi he ngaahi teka. 
‌ʻI heʻene ʻalu ʻena, naʻe ʻalu eni; pea ʻi heʻene tuʻumaʻu ʻena, naʻe tuʻu eni; pea ʻi heʻene hiki hake ʻena mei he kelekele, naʻe hiki hake ai ʻae ngaahi teka ʻo fakahangatonu mai kiate kinautolu: he naʻe ʻi he ngaahi teka ʻae laumālie ʻoe meʻa moʻui. 
Pea naʻe tatau hono fakamalumalu mei ʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi meʻa moʻui, mo e lanu ʻoe kalisitala fakamanavahē, ʻoku mafola atu ki ʻolunga ʻi honau ʻulu. 
Pea naʻe mafola totonu hake ʻi lalo ʻi hono fakamalumalu ʻa honau kapakau, pea ne fepikitaki ia: naʻe taki taha honau kapakau ʻe ua naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki honau sino ʻi he tafaʻaki ko eni, pea mo e ua naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki mei hena. 
Pea ʻi heʻenau ʻalu naʻaku fanongo ki he longoaʻa ʻo honau kapakau, naʻe hangē ko e ʻuʻulu ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi, hangē ko e leʻo ʻoe māfimafi, mo e ongo mai ʻae lea, mo e longoaʻa ʻo ha fuʻu tokolahi: pea ʻi heʻenau tuʻu naʻa nau fāū honau kapakau. 
Pea ʻi heʻenau tuʻu mo fāū honau kapakau naʻe ongo mai ʻae leʻo mei he langi, ki ʻolunga ʻi honau ʻulu. 
¶ Pea naʻe hā mai ʻae tatau ʻoe nofoʻa fakatuʻi mei ʻolunga ʻi he potu langi naʻe feangai hifo mo honau ʻulu, pea naʻe hangē ia ko e maka ko e safaia, pea hā mai mei he tatau ʻoe nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻae mata ʻo hangē ko e hā mai ʻo ha tangata mei ʻolunga ʻi ai. 
Pea naʻaku mamata naʻe lanu tatau ia mo e ʻamipa, pea hangē ko e afi ʻoku takatakai ʻi loto ʻi ai mei he hā mai ʻo hono kongaloto ʻo fai ki ʻolunga, pea mei he hā mai ʻo hono kongaloto ʻo fai ki lalo naʻaku mamata naʻe hangē ko e afi pea naʻe ulo takatakai ʻi ai. 
‌ʻO hangē ko e ʻūmata ʻoku ʻi he ʻao ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ʻuha, naʻe pehē ʻae ulo takatakai ʻi ai. Ko e hā mai eni ʻae tatau ʻoe nāunau ʻo Sihova. Pea ʻi heʻeku mamata ki ai, naʻaku tōmapeʻe ki hoku mata, pea naʻaku fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo ha taha naʻe lea mai.
