Naʻe taʻu 40 ʻa ʻAisake ʻi heʻene mali mo Lepeká. Naʻá ne ʻofa lahi ʻiate ia. Naʻe faifai pē ʻo ʻi ai ʻena fānau ʻe toko ua​—ko e ongo māhanga tangata.

Naʻe ui ʻa e tamasiʻi lahí ko ʻĪsoa, pea ko e siʻí ko Sēkope. Naʻe saiʻia ʻa ʻĪsoa ʻi he nofo ʻi tuʻá, pea naʻá ne poto ʻi he tulimanú. Ka naʻe saiʻia ʻa Sēkope ke nofo pē ʻi ʻapi.

ʻI he taimi ko iá, naʻe foaki ki he foha lahi tahá ʻa e lahi taha ʻo e kelekelé mo e paʻangá ʻi he mate ʻa ʻene tamaí. Naʻe ui ia ko ha tofiʻa. ʻI he fāmili ʻo ʻAisaké, naʻe toe kau ki he tofiʻá ʻa e ʻi ai ha kaunga ki he palōmesi naʻe fai ʻe Sihova kia ʻĒpalahamé. Naʻe ʻikai ke fuʻu tokanga ʻa ʻĪsoa ki he ngaahi palōmesi ko iá, ka naʻe ʻiloʻi ʻe Sēkope naʻe mahuʻinga ʻaupito ia.

ʻI he ʻaho ʻe taha naʻe haʻu ai ʻa ʻĪsoa ki ʻapi ʻokú ne helaʻia lahi ʻi haʻane tulimanu ʻi he ʻahó kotoa. Naʻá ne nāmuʻi ʻa e meʻatokoni ifo naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sēkopé peá ne pehē ange: ‘ʻOku ou fuʻu fiekaia! ʻOmi ha meʻi meʻa mei he supo kulokula ko ená!’ Naʻe pehē ʻe Sēkope: ‘Te u ʻoatu, ka ke ʻuluaki palōmesi mai ʻe lava ke u maʻu ho tofiʻá.’ Naʻe pehē ange ʻe ʻĪsoa: ‘ʻOku ʻikai te u tokanga au ki hoku tofiʻá! ʻE lava ke ke maʻu ia ʻe koe. ʻOku ou fiemaʻu pē ʻe au ke u kai.’ ʻOkú ke pehē naʻe fakapotopoto ʻa e meʻa naʻe fai ʻe ʻĪsoá? ʻIkai. Naʻe foaki ʻe ʻĪsoa ha meʻa mahuʻinga ʻaupito, ki ha poulu supo pē.

 ʻI he motuʻa ʻaupito ʻa ʻAisaké, naʻe aʻu ki he taimi ke ne tāpuakiʻi ʻa hono foha lahí. Ka naʻe tokoniʻi ʻe Lepeka ʻa Sēkope, ko e foha siʻisiʻí, ke ne maʻu ʻa e tāpuakí. ʻI hono ʻiloʻi ʻe ʻĪsoá, naʻá ne ʻita lahi peá ne faʻufaʻu ke tāmateʻi ʻa hono tokoua māhangá. Naʻe loto ʻa ʻAisake mo Lepeka ke maluʻi ʻa Sēkope, ko ia naʻá na tala ange ki ai: ‘ʻAlu ʻo nofo mo e tuongaʻane ʻo hoʻo faʻeé, ʻa Lēpani, kae ʻoua ke holo hifo ʻa e ʻita ʻa ʻĪsoá.’ Naʻe fanongo ʻa Sēkope ki he faleʻi ʻa ʻene ongo mātuʻá peá ne hola koeʻuhi ko ʻene moʻuí.
