Sakalia 5:1-11
5 Neʼe au toe hiki ake ʼoku mata pea neʼe au sio ki he takaiga tohi ʼe lele ʼi te lagi.
2 Neʼe fehuʼi mai e te ʼaselo: “Kotea ʼae ʼe ke sio ki ai?”
Neʼe au tali age: “ ʼE au sio ki he takaiga tohi ʼe lele ʼi te lagi. ʼE fasiga nima* 20 tona loa mo fasiga nima 10 tona laulahi.”
3 Pea neʼe ina ui mai: “ ʼE tohi ʼi te takaiga tohi ʼaia te malaʼia ʼae ʼe mafola ʼi te kele katoa. ʼEi, ʼe mafola te malaʼia koteʼuhi ko he tahi pe ʼe kaihaʼa,+ ohage ko tona tohi ʼi te faʼahi ʼo te takaiga tohi, ʼe mole fakatuʼā. Pea ko he tahi pe ʼe ina fai he fakapapau loi,+ ohage ko tona tohi ʼi te tahi faʼahi ʼo te takaiga tohi, ʼe mole fakatuʼā ia.
4 ʼE ui e Sehova ʼo te ʼatu kautau: ‘Neʼe au fakahoko te malaʼia ʼaia, pea ʼe ulu anai ki te ʼapi ʼo ia ʼae ʼe kaihaʼa mo te ʼapi ʼo ia ʼae ʼe ina fai he fakapapau loi ʼi toku huafa. ʼE nofo anai ʼi te ʼu ʼapi ʼaia ʼo ina maumauʼi, ʼo feia pe mo ʼonā lalago pea mo ʼonā maka.’ ”
5 Pea neʼe fakaovi mai te ʼaselo ʼae neʼe ma palalau, ʼo ina ui mai: “Fakalelei siʼou loto, hiki ake ʼou mata, pea ke sio ki te meʼa ʼae ʼe haʼu.”
6 Neʼe au fehuʼi age ki ai: “ ʼE kotea?”
Neʼe ina tali mai: “Ko te meʼa ʼae ʼe haʼu, ʼe ko he kulo.”* Pea neʼe ina toe ui mai: “ ʼE feia te agaaga ʼo te hahaʼi ʼaia ʼi te kele katoa.”
7 Pea neʼe au sio ki te toʼo ʼo te tapunu pulu takafuafua. Neʼe ʼi ai te fafine neʼe nofo ʼi te loto kulo.
8 Pea neʼe ui e te ʼaselo: “ ʼE higoa te fafine ʼaia ko Agakovi.” Pea neʼe ina humuki ki te loto kulo, ʼo pupunu ʼaki te tapunu pulu mamafa.
9 Pea neʼe au hiki ake leva ʼoku mata ʼo sio ki te fakaovi mai ʼo ni fafine ʼe toko lua, neʼe nā feleleʼi ʼi te matagi. Neʼe ʼi ai ʼonā pakakau ohage ko te ʼu pakakau ʼo te motuku. Neʼe nā toʼo te kulo mo ʼave ʼi te vaha ʼo te kele mo te lagi.
10 Pea neʼe au fehuʼi age ki te ʼaselo ʼae neʼe ma palalau: “ ʼE nā ʼave koa kifea te kulo?”
11 Neʼe ina tali mai: “Ki te fenua ʼo Sinea.*+ ʼE nā laga ai anai he ʼapi maʼa te fafine. Pea ka ʼosi, ʼe tuku anai ki ai te fafine, he ʼe tonu ke nofo ai.”
