¶ 1 BEA koe mea i he mamahi a Kalaisi i he jino koeuhi ko kitautolu, ke teuteu akimoutolu foki aki ae loto be koia: he ko ia kuo mamahi i he jino, kuo tuku eia ae agahala;

2 Koeuhi ke oua naa moui ia i hono toe oe gaahi aho i he jino ki he holi oe tagata, ka ki he finagalo oe Otua.

3 He kuo lahi kiate kitautolu ae kuoga kuo hiliage oe tau moui ke fai ai ae loto oe kakai Jenitaile, aia naa tau aeva ai i he aga fakalielia, moe gaahi holi kovi, moe inu lahi i he uaine, i he gaahi katoaga kai, moe gaahi katoaga inu uaine, moe fakalielia oe tauhi tamabua:

4 Aia oku nau ofo i he ikai te mou  kei felele‘i ki he maveuveu lahi fau fau koia, o nau lauikovi  akimoutolu:

5 Akinautolu e fakamatala kiate ia oku teu ke ne fakamāu‘i ae moui moe mate.

6 He koe mea ko eni nae malaga aki ai ae ogoogolelei kiate kinautolu foki kuo mate, koeuhi ke fakamāu akinautolu i he kakano, o fakatatau ki he tagata, kae moui o fakatatau ki he Otua i he laumalie.

7 Ka kuo ofi ae gataaga oe mea kotoabe: koia mou fai fakabotoboto, mo leo ke lotu.

17 He koe kuoga eni ke fuofua fai ae tautea ki he fale oe Otua: bea ka kamata kiate kitautolu, bea e fefe ae gataaga o kinautolu oku ikai talagofua ki he ogoogolelei oe Otua?

18 Bea kabau kuo meimei ikai hao ae maonioni, e ha kife ae taelotu moe agahala?

19 Koia ke iloga akinautolu oku mamahi o tāu moe finagalo oe Otua, ke tuku bau ho nau laumalie i he fai lelei, o hage ki he Tubui‐Otua oku fai agatonu.
