Lua Kolonito 9:1-15
9 Pea ʼo ʼuhiga leva mo te tokoni ʼaia ki te kau maʼoniʼoni,+ ʼe mole ʼaoga ke au faitohi atu,
2 he ʼe au iloʼi ʼe kotou lotolelei ke kotou tokoni. ʼE au fiameʼameʼa ʼo ʼuhiga mo koutou ki te kau Masetonia. Neʼe au ui age kia natou, ko koutou ʼae ʼi Akaia kua taʼu katoa takotou tokalelei ke kotou tokoni. Pea ko takotou faʼafai neʼe ina uga te tokolahi ia natou ke natou toe lotolelei.
3 Kae ʼe au fekauʼi atu te ʼu tehina ke ʼaua naʼa to noa tamatou fiameʼameʼa ia koutou ʼo ʼuhiga mo te faʼahi ʼaia pea ke kotou nonofo teuteu ohage ko taku fakaha age kia natou.
4 Koteʼuhi kapau ʼe au alu atu mo he kau Masetonia ʼo matou maʼu atu heʼeki kotou tokalelei, ʼe fakaufiufi anai kia matou ʼuhi ko tamatou falala ʼae kia koutou, pea ʼe toe fakaufiufi anai kia koutou.
5 Koia neʼe au manatu ai ʼe ʼaoga ke fakalotomalohiʼi te ʼu tehina ke natou olo fakatomuʼa atu pea ke natou tanaki ʼakotou meʼa ʼofa ʼae neʼe kotou fakapapauʼi. Ka matou tau atu la, kua tokalelei te meʼa ʼofa lahi ʼaia pea ʼe fakaha ai ʼe kotou foaki ʼaki he lotolelei kae mole ʼuhi he ʼe fakakinauʼi koutou.
6 Kae ki te faʼahi ʼaia, ko ia ʼae ʼe veliveli tana tūtū, ʼe veliveli anai te meʼa ʼae ka ina utu, pea ko ia ʼae ʼe lahi tana tūtū ʼe lahi anai te meʼa ʼae ka ina utu.+
7 Ke tahi foaki ʼo mulimuli ki te meʼa ʼae kua ina fakatotonu ʼi tona loto, ʼo mole foaki ʼaki he lotofakahemala peʼe fakakinau,+ koteʼuhi ʼe ʼofa te ʼAtua ki ʼae ʼe ina foaki ʼaki he loto ʼe fiafia.+
8 Koia ʼe feala ki te ʼAtua ke ina fakatupu tona ʼofa makehe ʼo lahi kia koutou ke kotou feʼauga tuʼumaʼu ia meʼa fuli, pea ke kotou maʼu lahi ai te ʼu meʼa ʼae ʼe ʼaoga moʼo fai te ʼu gaue lelei fuli.+
9 (Ohage ko tona tohi: “Neʼe mole ina lau te meʼa ʼae neʼe ina tufa, neʼe ina foaki ki te kau masisiva. ʼE tuʼu anai tana faitotonu ʼo talu ai.”+
10 Pea ko Ia ʼae ʼe ina foaki lahi te pulapula ki te tagata nunusi pulapula pea mo te pane ke ina kai, ʼe ina foaki lahi anai te pulapula maʼa koutou ke kotou nunusi, pea mo ina fakatupu lahi anai te ʼu fua ʼo takotou faitotonu.)
11 ʼE tapuakiʼi koutou e te ʼAtua ia meʼa fuli ke feala ai ke kotou foaki ʼaki he lotolelei ʼi he ʼu aluʼaga kehekehe, ʼo tupu ai he fakafetaʼi ki te ʼAtua ʼaki ia matou.
12 Koteʼuhi ko te tokoni ʼaia ʼe mole ko te foaki pe ʼo te ʼu meʼa ʼae ʼe ʼaoga ki te kau maʼoniʼoni,+ kae ke toe lahi ai te fakafetaʼi ki te ʼAtua.
13 ʼAki te fakamoʼoni ʼae ʼe foaki e te gaue tokoni ʼaia, ʼe fakakololiaʼi e te hahaʼi ia te ʼAtua ʼuhi ko takotou talagafua ki te logo lelei ʼo ʼuhiga mo Kilisito,* ʼae ʼe kotou tala ia muʼa ʼo te hahaʼi, pea ʼuhi ko takotou foaki ʼaki he lotolelei ʼakotou meʼa ʼofa maʼa te kau maʼoniʼoni pea mo te hahaʼi fuli.+
14 Pea ʼe natou faikole fakamalotoloto ki te ʼAtua maʼa koutou, pea mo natou ʼoʼofa kia koutou ʼuhi ko te ʼofa makehe ʼae ʼe fakaha atu e te ʼAtua kia koutou.
15 Ke tou fakafetaʼi ki te ʼAtua ʼo ʼuhiga mo tona meʼa ʼofa taulekaleka.
