Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “Tuku mai hoʻo lea ʻoku ʻuhinga fufū, koeʻuhi ke mau fanongo ki ai.” 14 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu,
“Naʻe tupu ʻae meʻakai mei he ʻuakai,

Pea naʻe ʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu mo e ʻikai tenau faʻa fakaʻuhingaʻi ʻae lea. 15 Pea ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, naʻe pehē, naʻa nau tala ki he ʻunoho ʻo Samisoni, ʻo pehē, “Fakakolekole ki ho ʻunoho, koeʻuhi ke ne fakahā kiate kimautolu ʻae lea, telia naʻa mau tutu koe mo e fale ʻo hoʻo tamai ʻaki ʻae afi: he kuo mou talia ʻakimautolu ke toe toʻo pe ʻemau meʻa? ʻIkai ʻoku pehē?” 16 Pea naʻe tangi ʻae ʻunoho ʻo Samisoni ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ke fehiʻa pe kiate au, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻofa kiate au: kuo ke tuku atu ʻae lea ki he fānau ʻa hoku kakai, pea ʻoku teʻeki ai te ke tala ia kiate au.” Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Vakai, naʻe ʻikai te u tala ia ki heʻeku tamai mo ʻeku faʻē, pea ʻe lelei ʻeku tala ia kiate koe?” 17 Pea naʻe tangi pe ia ʻi hono ʻao, ʻi hono toenga ʻaho ʻo ʻenau kātoanga: pea hoko ki hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, pea pehē, naʻa ne tala ia kiate ia, he naʻe fakafiu fakamamahi ia kiate ia: pea naʻe fakahā ʻe ia ʻae lea mo hono ʻuhinga fufū ki he fānau ʻa hono kakai. 18 Pea lea kiate ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻoe kolo ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, ʻi he teʻeki ai tō ʻae laʻā, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku melie lahi ʻi he honi? Pea ko e hā ʻoku mālohi hake ʻi he laione?”
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu,
“Ka ne taʻeʻoua hoʻomou keli mo ʻeku pulu fefine,

19 ¶ Pea naʻe hoko mālohi ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova kiate ia, pea ʻalu hifo ia ki ʻAsikeloni, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ʻae kau tangata ʻiate kinautolu ʻe toko tolungofulu, pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ia honau ngaahi kofu, ʻo ʻatu ʻae ngaahi kofu kiate kinautolu naʻe fakahā ʻene lea fufū. Pea naʻe tupu ai ʻene ʻita, pea ʻalu hake ai ia ki he fale ʻo ʻene tamai. 20 Ka naʻe ʻatu ʻae ʻunoho ʻo Samisoni ki heʻene kaumeʻa, ʻaia naʻa ne faʻaki ki ai ko hono kāinga.
