3 Ke iate kimoutolu ae aloofa, moe ofa mataataatā be, moe melino, mei he Otua koe Tamai, bea mei he Eiki ko Jisu Kalaisi, koe Alo oe Tamai, i he mooni moe ofa.
4 Neu fiefia lahi i he eku ilo‘i ae niihi i hoo fānau oku aeva i he mooni, o hage koe fekau naa tau ma‘u mei he Tamai.
5 Bea koeni, oku ou kole atu kiate koe, e fine eiki, kae ikai hage ko haaku tohi ha fekau foou kiate koe, ka koia kuo tau ma‘u mei he kamataaga, ke tau feofaaki kiate kitautolu.
