Kae kehe, naʻá ne haʻu kia Sionatane peá ne pehē: “Ko e hā ʻa e meʻa kuó u faí?+ Ko e hā haʻaku hia, pea ko e hā haʻaku angahala kuo fai ki hoʻo tamaí ke ne kumi ai ki heʻeku moʻuí?”  ʻI he meʻá ni naʻe pehē ange ai ʻe Sionatane kiate ia: “Mole ke mamaʻo!+ Heʻikai te ke mate. Vakai! Heʻikai ke fai ʻe heʻeku tamaí ha meʻa, lahi pe siʻi, ʻo ʻikai te ne fakahā mai ia kiate au. Ko e hā ka fufū ai ʻa e meʻá ni ʻe heʻeku tamaí meiate au? Heʻikai ke hoko ʻa e meʻá ni.”  Ka naʻe toe fakapapau ange ʻa Tēvita ʻo pehē: “ʻOku ʻilo lelei ʻe hoʻo tamaí ʻokú ke leleiʻia ʻiate au+ pea te ne pehē, ‘ʻOua naʻa tuku ke ʻilo ʻe Sionatane ʻa e meʻá ni he te ne loto-mamahi.’ ʻOku ou fuakava ʻia Sihova ko e ʻOtua moʻuí pea ʻoku ou fakapapau atu kiate koe, ʻoku ʻikai te u vāmamaʻo mo e maté!”+  Naʻe pehē leva ʻe Sionatane kia Tēvita: “Ko e hā pē ʻa e meʻa te ke leaʻakí, te u fai ia maʻau.”  Naʻe pehē ange ʻe Tēvita kia Sionatane: “ʻE māhina foʻou ʻapongipongi,+ pea ʻoku ʻamanekina moʻoni au ke u tangutu fakataha mo e tuʻí ʻi he kaí; kuo pau ke ke tuku au ke u ʻalu, pea te u toi ʻi he tuʻa koló kae ʻoua ke aʻu ki he efiafi ʻo e ʻaho hono tolú.  Kapau ʻe fakatokangaʻi moʻoni ʻe hoʻo tamaí ʻa ʻeku pulí, te ke pehē ange leva, ‘Naʻe kōlenga mai ʻe Tēvita kiate au ke fakaʻatā ia ke ne ʻalu fakavave ki hono koló ki Pētelihema,+ koeʻuhí ʻoku fai ai ha feilaulau fakataʻu maʻá e fāmilí hono kotoa.’+  Kapau ko ʻene talí ʻe peheni, ‘ʻOku lelei,’ ʻoku ʻuhinga iá ko e fiemālie ki hoʻo sevānití. Ka ʻo kapau te ne hoko ʻo ʻita, ʻe lava ke ke ʻilo pau ai ʻokú ne fakapapauʻi ke fai ha kovi kiate au.  Fakahāhā ʻa e ʻofa mateaki ki hoʻo sevānití,+ he kuó ke ʻomi au ki ha fuakava ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihová.+ Ka ʻo kapau ʻoku ou halaia,+ ke ke tāmateʻi ʻe koe au. Ko e hā ke ke tuku ai au ki hoʻo tamaí?”  ʻI he meʻá ni naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sionatane: “Mole ke mamaʻo ha fakakaukau pehē fekauʻaki mo koe! Kapau te u ʻiloʻi ʻoku fakapapauʻi ʻe heʻeku tamaí ke fai ha kovi kiate koe, ʻikai te u tala atu ia?”+ 10  Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe Tēvita kia Sionatane: “Ko hai te ne tala mai kiate au kapau ʻe fai atu ʻe hoʻo tamaí ha tali fefeka kiate koe?” 11  Naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sionatane kia Tēvita: “Haʻu, ta ʻalu ki he tuʻa koló.” Ko ia ko kinaua fakatouʻosi naʻá na ʻalu atu ki he vaó. 12  Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sionatane kia Tēvita: “Tuku ke hoko ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsilelí ko ha fakamoʻoni, te u fai ha fehuʻi ki heʻeku tamaí ʻi he taimi nai ko ení ʻapongipongi pe ʻi he ʻaho hono tolú. Kapau te ne fakahaaʻi ʻa e leleiʻia ʻia Tēvita, ʻikai te u ʻoatu leva ha fakamatala pea fakahaaʻi atu ia kiate koe? 13  Ka ʻo kapau ʻoku fakataumuʻa ʻa ʻeku tamaí ke fai ha kovi kiate koe, ʻofa ke fai ʻe Sihova kia Sionatane ʻa e meʻa ko iá pea fai ke hulu atu ai kapau ʻe ʻikai ke u fakahaaʻi atu ia kiate koe pea tuku ke ke ʻalu ʻi he fiemālie. ʻOfa ke kau ʻa Sihova mo koe,+ ʻo hangē pē ko ʻene kau mo ʻeku tamaí.+ 14  Pea ʻikai te ke fakahaaʻi mai kiate au ʻa e ʻofa mateaki ʻa Sihová lolotonga ʻa ʻeku moʻuí pea naʻa mo e taimi te u mate aí?+ 15  ʻOua ʻaupito naʻa toʻo hoʻo ʻofa mateakí mei hoku falé,+ naʻa mo e taimi ʻe tafiʻi atu ai ʻe Sihova ʻa e ngaahi fili kotoa ʻo Tēvitá mei he funga ʻo māmaní.” 16  Ko ia naʻe fai ai ʻe Sionatane ha fuakava mo e fale ʻo Tēvitá, ʻo pehē, “ʻE kounaʻi ʻe Sihova ha totongi kapau ʻe maumauʻi ʻa e aleapau ko ení pea te ne fiemaʻu ʻa e ngaahi fili ʻo Tēvitá ke nau fai ha fakamatala.” 17  Ko ia naʻe ʻai ai ʻe Sionatane ke toe fai ʻe Tēvita ha fakapapau ʻi heʻene ʻofa kiate iá, he naʻe ʻofa ʻa Sionatane ʻia Tēvita ʻo hangē pē ko ʻene ʻofa ʻiate iá.+ 18  Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe Sionatane kiate ia: “ʻE māhina foʻou ʻapongipongi,+ pea ʻe fakatokangaʻi ʻa hoʻo pulí, koeʻuhí ʻe ʻatā ho nofoʻangá. 19  ʻI he ʻaho hono tolú, ʻe toe ʻāsili ange ai hono fakatokangaʻi hoʻo pulí, pea kuo pau ke ke ʻalu ki he feituʻu ʻa ia naʻá ke toi ai ʻi he ʻaho* ko eé pea nofo ʻo ofi ki he fuʻu maka ko ení. 20  Te u fanaʻi leva ʻa e foʻi ngahau ʻe tolu ki he tafaʻaki ʻe taha ʻo e fuʻu maká, ʻo hangē ko haʻaku fana ki ha tāketí. 21  ʻI heʻeku fekauʻi ʻa e tamaioʻeikí, te u pehē ange, ‘ʻAlu, ʻo kumi ʻa e ngaahi foʻi ngahaú.’ Kapau te u pehē ki he tamaioʻeikí, ‘Vakai! Ko e ngaahi foʻi ngahaú ʻoku ʻi he tafaʻaki ko eni ʻoʻoú, toʻo mai ia,’ te ke foki mai leva, he ʻoku ou fuakava ʻia Sihova ko e ʻOtua moʻuí, ʻoku ʻuhinga iá ʻe lelei ʻa e meʻa kotoa kiate koe pea ʻoku ʻikai ha fakatuʻutāmaki. 22  Ka ʻo kapau te u pehē ki he tamasiʻí, ‘Vakai! Ko e ngaahi foʻi ngahaú ʻoku kiʻi mamaʻo atu meiate koe,’ te ke ʻalu leva, he kuo tuku koe ʻe Sihova ke ke ʻalu. 23  Ko e meʻa ki he palōmesi kuó ta faí,+ ʻa koe mo aú, ʻofa ke ʻi hota vahaʻá ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata.”+ 24  Ko ia naʻe toi ʻa Tēvita ʻi he tuʻa koló. ʻI he hoko mai ʻa e māhina foʻoú, naʻe tangutu ʻa e tuʻí ʻi hono nofoʻangá ki he kaí.+ 25  Naʻe tangutu ʻa e tuʻí ʻi hono nofoʻanga anga-mahení ʻi he veʻe holisí. Naʻe hanga atu kiate ia ʻa Sionatane, pea naʻe tangutu ʻa ʻĀpina+ ʻi he tafaʻaki ʻo Saulá, ka naʻe ʻatā ʻa e nofoʻanga ʻo Tēvitá. 26  Naʻe ʻikai ke leaʻaki ʻe Saula ha meʻa ʻi he ʻaho ko iá, he naʻá ne pehē loto pē: ‘Kuo hoko ha meʻa ʻo ʻikai ai te ne maʻa.+ ʻIo, ʻoku pau pē ʻokú ne taʻemaʻa.’ 27  Pea ʻi he ʻaho hili ʻa e māhina foʻoú, ʻi he ʻaho hono uá, naʻe kei ʻatā ai pē ʻa e nofoʻanga ʻo Tēvitá. Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe Saula kia Sionatane ko hono fohá: “Ko e hā kuo ʻikai ke haʻu ai ʻa e foha ʻo Sesé+ ki he kaí ʻaneafi pe ʻi he ʻahó ni?” 28  Naʻe tali ange ʻe Sionatane kia Saula: “Naʻe kōlenga mai ʻe Tēvita kiate au ke fakaʻatā ia ke ne ʻalu ki Pētelihema.+ 29  Naʻá ne pehē mai, ‘Tuku muʻa au ke u ʻalu, koeʻuhí he ʻoku fai ʻemau feilaulau fakafāmili ʻi he koló, pea ko hoku tokouá tonu naʻá ne fekau mai ke u ʻalu ange.

Pea naʻá ne tō foʻohifo ki he kelekelé ʻo ne punou tuʻo tolu, pea naʻá na feʻiloaki mo fetāngihi, ka naʻe lahi ange ʻa e tangi ʻa Tēvitá. 42  Naʻe pehē ʻe Sionatane kia Tēvita: “ʻAlu fiemālie, he kuó ta fai ha fuakava+ ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihová ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOfa ke ʻi hota vahaʻá ʻa Sihova pea ke ne ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ho hakó mo hoku hakó ʻo taʻengata.’”+ Naʻe mālanga hake leva ʻa Tēvita ʻo ne mavahe atu, pea naʻe foki ʻa Sionatane ki he koló.
