Selemaia 9

23 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova,

"ʻOua naʻa polepole ʻae tangata poto ʻi heʻene poto,

pe ko e tangata mālohi ʻi heʻene mālohi,

pea ʻoua naʻa polepole ʻae tangata maʻu meʻa ʻi heʻene koloa.

24 Ka ko ia ʻoku polepole ke polepole ʻi he meʻa ni,

koeʻuhi ʻoku ne poto mo ʻiloʻi au,

Ko au ko Sihova ʻoku ou faʻa manavaʻofa, mo fakamaau, mo angatonu ʻi māmani:"

he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, "ʻOku ou fiefia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni."
