25 Pea ʼi te lakaga nei, Sehova e, te ʼAtua ʼo Iselaele, ke ke fakahoko te fakapapau ʼae neʼe ke fai ki tau tagata faifekau ko Tavite, taku tamai, ʼi tau ui age ki ai: ‘Kapau ʼe tokakaga ʼou foha ki ʼonatou ala, ʼo natou haʼele agatonu ʼi ʼoku muʼa ohage pe ko tau haʼele agatonu ʼi ʼoku muʼa, ʼe ʼi ai tuʼumaʼu pe anai ʼi ʼoku muʼa he tagata ʼi tou hologa ʼe heka anai ʼi te hekaʼaga fakahau ʼo Iselaele.’+

ʼE fakahoko anai te faʼahi ʼaia e Sehova ʼo te ʼatu kautau ʼaki he faʼafai.

20 “Koʼeni te folafola ʼa Sehova: ‘ ʼE feala anai koa ʼi he ʼaho ke kotou maumauʼi taku fuakava ʼo ʼuhiga mo te ʼaho mo taku fuakava ʼo ʼuhiga mo te poʼuli ke ʼaua naʼa toe ʼaho mo poʼuli ʼi tona temi totonu? Kailoa!+ 21 ʼE toe feia pe, ʼe mole anai he meʼa ʼe ina maumauʼi te fuakava ʼae neʼe au fai mo taku tagata kaugana ko Tavite+ pea mo taʼofi hona foha ke heka ki tona hekaʼaga fakahau.+ Pea ʼe mole ʼi ai anai he meʼa ʼe ina maumauʼi te fuakava ʼae neʼe au fai mo ʼaku pelepitelo Levite, ʼaku kaugana.+

27 ʼI te mavae ʼa Sesu mai ai, neʼe mulimuli ia te ia te ʼu tagata kivi ʼe toko lua+ ʼo nā kalaga: “Foha ʼo Tavite, ʼofa mai kia maua.”

69 Pea neʼe ina fakatupu maʼa tatou he fakamaʼuli malohi*+ mai te famili ʼo tana kaugana ko Tavite,+

30 Mai tona ʼuhiga ʼae neʼe ko he polofeta pea neʼe ina iloʼi neʼe fakapapauʼi age e te ʼAtua, ʼe ʼafio anai he tahi ʼo tona hakoga ʼi tona hekaʼaga fakahau,+ 31 koia neʼe sio fakatomuʼa pea neʼe palalau ʼo ʼuhiga mo te fakatuʼuake ʼo Kilisito,* ʼi tana ui ʼae ʼe mole tuku ʼi te Faitoka* pea ʼe mole pala tona sino.+

22 ʼI tana ʼosi fakahifo ia ia, neʼe ina filifili leva ia Tavite ke hau kia natou.+ Neʼe ina fakamoʼoni ʼo ʼuhiga mo ia: ‘Kua au maʼu ia Tavite te foha ʼo Sese,+ ko he tagata ʼe mulimuli ki toku finegalo*+ pea ʼe ina fai anai te ʼu meʼa fuli ʼae ʼe au loto ki ai.’ 23 Pea ʼo mulimuli ki tana fakapapau, ʼe ko te hakoga ʼo te tagata ʼaia ka haʼu ai te fakamaʼuli maʼa Iselaele, ia Sesu.+
