1 ʻOku hoko ʻa Sēkope ki he vai ʻo Halani. 9 ʻOku ne fetaulaki mo Lesieli. 13 ʻOku tali ia ʻe Lepani; 18 ʻOku alea ʻa Sēkope mo ia kia Lesieli. 23 Kuo kākaaʻi ia ʻi he ʻatu ʻa Lia. 28 ʻOku na fakamaau foki mo Lesieli, pea ne toe tauhi koeʻuhi ko ia, ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitu. 32 ʻOku fāʻeleʻi ʻe Lia ʻa Lupeni, 33 Mo Simione, 34 Mo Livai, 35 Pea mo Siuta.
1 Pea toe ʻalu ʻa Sēkope ʻi hono fononga, pea naʻe haʻu ia ki he fonua ʻoe kakai hahake. 2 Pea sio ia, pea ne ʻilo ʻae vai ʻi he ngoue, pea vakai, naʻe ai ʻae vāhenga fanga sipi ʻe tolu, naʻe tokoto ʻo ofi ki ai, he naʻe fakainu ʻae fanga manu mei he vai ko ia: pea naʻe tāpuni ʻaki ʻae ngutu vai ʻae fuʻu maka lahi. 3 Pea naʻe fakataha ki ai ʻae ngaahi vāhenga sipi kotoa pē: pea nau filifilihi ʻae maka mei he ngutu vai, pea fakainu ʻae fanga sipi, pea naʻe toe ai ʻae maka ki hono potu, ki he ngutu vai. 4 Pea pehē ʻe Sēkope kiate kinautolu, “Kāinga, ʻoku mei fē ʻakinautolu?” Pea nau pehē, “Ko e kau Halani ʻakimautolu.” 5 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou ʻilo ʻa Lepani, ko e foha ʻo Nehoa?” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “ʻOku mau ʻilo ia.” 6 Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku moʻui ia?” Pea nau pehēange, “ʻOku mālōlō pe: pea vakai, ko Lesieli ko hono ʻofefine, ʻoku haʻu mo e fanga sipi.” 7 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Vakai, ʻoku kei hoʻatā pe, pea ʻoku teʻeki ai hokosia ʻae feituʻulaʻā ke fakataha ai ʻae fanga manu: ko ia mou fakainu ʻae fanga sipi, pea ʻalu ʻo fafanga.” 8 Pea naʻa nau pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai te mau faʻa fai, kaeʻoua ke fakataha mai ʻae vāhenga sipi kotoa pē, pea ʻoua ke filifilihi ʻae maka mei he ngutu vai; pea te mau toki fakainu ʻae fanga sipi.”
9 ¶ Pea lolotonga ʻenau alea mo e haʻu ʻa Lesieli mo e fanga sipi ʻa ʻene tamai, he naʻa ne tauhi ki ai. 10 Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Sēkope kia Lesieli ko e ʻofefine ʻo Lepani, ko e tuongaʻane ʻo ʻene faʻē, mo e fanga sipi ʻa Lepani, ko e tuongaʻane ʻo ʻene faʻē, naʻe ʻunuʻunu atu ʻa Sēkope ʻo ne tekaʻi ʻae maka mei he ngutu vai, pea ne fakainu ʻae fanga sipi ʻa Lepani, ko e tuongaʻane ʻo ʻene faʻē. 11 Pea uma ʻa Sēkope kia Lesieli, pea hiki hake hono leʻo, pea tangi. 12 Pea talaange ʻe Sēkope kia Lesieli, “Ko e kāinga ia ʻo ʻene tamai, pea ko e tama ia ʻa Lepeka:” pea naʻe lele ia ʻo fakahā ki heʻene tamai. 13 Pea kuo fanongo ʻa Lepani ki he talanoa kia Sēkope, “Ko e tama ʻa hono tuofefine,” pea naʻe lele ia ke fakafetaulaki kiate ia, pea ne fāʻufua ia, ʻo ʻuma kiate ia, mo ne ʻomi ia ki hono fale. Pea talanoa ʻe ia kia Lepani, ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē. 14 Pea pehē ʻe Lepani kiate ia, Ko e moʻoni ko hoku hui koe, mo hoku kakano. Pea naʻa ne nofo kiate ia ʻi he māhina ʻe taha.
15 ¶ Pea pehē ʻe Lepani kia Sēkope, “He ʻoku totonu koā ke ke ngāue kiate au taʻehatotongi koeʻuhi ko hoku kāinga koe? Tala mai, ko e hā ʻae totongi ʻe fai kiate koe?” 16 Pea naʻe toko ua ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Lepani; ko e hingoa ʻoe ʻuluaki ko Lia, pea ko e hingoa ʻoe kimui ko Lesieli. 17 Naʻe mata kuikui ʻa Lia, ka naʻe hoihoifua ʻa Lesieli, mo matamatalelei. 18 Pea naʻe ʻofa ʻa Sēkope kia Lesieli, pea ne pehē, “Te u tauhi ko e ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitu, ka ke tuku mai ʻa Lesieli, ko ho ʻofefine kimui.” 19 Pea pehē ʻe Lepani, “ʻOku lelei lahi ʻeku foaki ia kiate koe, ʻi heʻeku foaki ia ki ha tangata kehe: ke ta nonofo mo au.”
20 ¶ Pea naʻe ngāue ʻa Sēkope ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitu, ke ne maʻu ʻa Lesieli; pea naʻe tatau ia kiate ia mo e ʻaho siʻi pe, koeʻuhi ko ʻene ʻofa lahi kiate ia. 21 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sēkope kia Lepani, “Tuku mai hoku ʻunoho koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu atu kiate ia, he kuo kakato ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho.” 22 Pea fakataha ʻe Lepani ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻoe potu, pea ne fai ʻae kātoanga. 23 Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki he pō, naʻa ne ʻave hono ʻofefine ko Lia, ʻo ne ʻomi ia kiate ia; pea ʻalu ia kiate ia. 24 Pea ne foaki ki hono ʻofefine ko Lia, ʻa ʻene kaunanga ko Silipa, ke kaunanga kiate ia. 25 Pea pongipongi hake ai, pea vakai, pea tā ko Lia ia: pea pehē ʻe ia kia Lepani, “Ko e hā eni kuo ke fai kiate au? ʻIkai naʻaku ngāue kiate koe koeʻuhi ko Lesieli? Pea ko e hā kuo ke kākaaʻi ai au?” 26 Pea pehē ʻe Lepani, “E ʻikai fai ha meʻa pehē ʻi homau fonua, ke tomuʻa foaki ʻae kimui ʻi he ʻuluaki. 27 Ka ke fakakakato ʻa hono uike, pea te mau foaki ia foki kiate koe, ʻoka ke ka toe ngāue kiate au, ʻi ha taʻu ʻe fitu kehe.” 28 Pea naʻe fai ia ʻe Sēkope; ʻo ne fakakakato hono uike: pea ne foaki kiate ia hono ʻofefine ko Lesieli, ko hono ʻunoho foki. 29 Pea foaki ʻe Lepani ki hono ʻofefine ko Lesieli ʻa Pila, ko ʻene kaunanga, ke kaunanga kiate ia. 30 Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Sēkope kia Lesieli, pea ʻofa lahi hake ʻe ia kia Lesieli ia Lia, pea naʻa ne toe ngāue kiate ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitu.
31 ¶ Pea ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova kuo fehiʻanekina ʻa Lia, pea naʻa ne ngaohi ia ke faʻa fānau; ka naʻe paʻa ʻa Lesieli. 32 Pea feitama ʻa Lia, pea ne fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama, pea ui hono hingoa ko Lupeni; he naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e moʻoni kuo ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova ʻeku mamahi; pea ko eni ʻe ʻofa hoku ʻunoho kiate au.” 33 Pea naʻe toe feitama ia pea fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama: ʻo ne pehē, “He kuo fanongo ʻa Sihova kuo fehiʻanekina au, ko ia kuo ne foaki kiate au ʻae tama ni foki: pea ne ui hono hingoa ko Simione.” 34 Pea toe feitama ia, pea fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama: pea pehē ʻe ia; “Ko eni ʻe tokanga hoku ʻunoho kiate au ʻi he kuonga ni, koeʻuhi kuo u fanauʻi kiate ia ʻae tama ʻe toko tolu; ko ia naʻe ui ai hono hingoa ko Livai.” 35 Pea toe feitama ia, pea fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama: pea pehē ʻe ia, Ko eni te u fakafetaʻi kia Sihova: ko ia naʻa ne ui hono hingoa ko Siuta: pea naʻe ngata ai ʻene fānau.
