Ki Te Kau Kolose 4:1-18
4 ʼU pule, kotou aga fakahagatonu ki ʼakotou kaugana pea mo toʼo fakatatau natou, he ʼe kotou iloʼi ʼe ʼi ai mo tokotou Pule ʼi selo.+
2 Kotou kataki ʼi te faikole+ pea ʼi takotou fai te faʼahi ʼaia, kotou nonofo ʼalaʼala pea mo momoli he ʼu fakafetaʼi ki te ʼAtua.+
3 Kotou toe faikole maʼa matou,+ ke foaki mai e te ʼAtua he faigamalie ke matou tala ai te folafola pea mo te meʼa fakalilo tapu* ʼo ʼuhiga mo Kilisito,* ʼae ʼe tupu ai toku pilisoniʼi.+
4 Kotou faikole maʼaku ke mahino lelei taku fakamafola te logo ʼaia he ʼe ko toku maʼua.
5 Kotou haga maʼuʼuli fakapotopoto ʼi takotou felogoi mo natou ʼae ʼo tuʼa, ʼo kotou fakaʼaogaʼi lelei tokotou temi.*+
6 Ke lelei tuʼumaʼu ʼakotou palalau, ʼo konakonaʼi ʼaki te masima,+ ke kotou iloʼi ai te faʼahiga tali ʼae ʼe tonu ke kotou fai ki he tahi.+
7 ʼE fakaha atu anai e Tisike+ te ʼu logo fuli ʼo ʼuhiga mo au. ʼE ko toku tehina ʼofaina mo faifekau agatonu pea mo kaugana fakatahi mo matou ʼi te ʼAliki.
8 ʼE au fekauʼi atu ia ia, ke ina fakaha atu tomatou aluʼaga pea ke ina fakafimalieʼi ʼokotou loto.
9 ʼE alu atu anai mo Onesimo,+ toku tehina agatonu mo ʼofaina, ʼae neʼe haʼu mai ia koutou. ʼE nā fakaha atu anai ia meʼa fuli ʼae ʼe hoko ʼi heni.
10 ʼE ʼofa atu ia Alisitake,+ ʼae ʼe pilisoni fakatahi mo au, ʼo feia aipe mo Maleko+ (te tehina mataʼi tama ʼo Palenapa), ʼae neʼe kotou maʼu te ʼu fakatotonu ʼo ʼuhiga mo tona fakatalitali+ mo kapau ʼe alu atu kia koutou,
11 pea mo Sesu ʼae ʼe toe higoa ko Susito. Ko natou ʼaia ʼe natou kau ʼi te kau silikosisio.* ʼE ko natou pe ʼaia ko ʼoku kaugā gaue ki te Puleʼaga ʼo te ʼAtua, pea neʼe natou liliu ko he tokoni malohi kia au.
12 ʼE ʼofa atu ia Epafalasi,+ ko he faifekau ʼa Kilisito Sesu neʼe haʼu mai ia koutou. ʼE faikole fakamalotoloto tuʼumaʼu maʼa koutou, ke kotou tutuʼu malohi ohage ko he hahaʼi kua fotufotuʼa* pea mo tui malohi kia meʼa fuli ʼo ʼuhiga mo te finegalo ʼo te ʼAtua.
13 ʼE au fakamoʼoni ki tana gaue kinakina maʼa koutou, mo natou ʼae ʼi Laotise, pea mo natou ʼae ʼo Ielapolisi.
14 ʼE ʼofa atu ia Luka,+ te toketa ʼofaina, ʼo feia aipe mo Temasi.+
15 Kotou ʼoʼofa age ki te ʼu tehina ʼo Laotise, mo te tuagaʼane ko Nimefa pea mo te kokelekasio ʼae ʼe fakatahitahi ʼi tona ʼapi.+
16 Pea ka kotou ʼosi lau te tohi ʼaeni, kotou fakatuʼutuʼu ke toe lau+ ʼi te kokelekasio ʼo Laotise pea ke kotou lau foki te tohi ʼae neʼe au fai ki Laotise.
17 Pea tahi ʼae, kotou ui age kia Alikipo:+ “Tokaga ʼo fakahoko lelei te minisitelio ʼae neʼe ke tali ʼi te ʼAliki.”
18 Ko au Paulo, ʼe au ʼofa atu.*+ Kotou manatuʼi taku nofo pilisoni.+ Ke nofo te ʼofa makehe ʼo te ʼAtua mo koutou.
