12 Pea ne u tuʻu hake ʻi he poʻuli, mo e kau tangata tokosiʻi naʻe ʻiate au; pea naʻe ʻikai te u tala ki ha tokotaha ʻaia naʻe tuku ʻe hoku ʻOtua ki hoku loto ke fai ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻe ʻikai ha manu ʻiate au ka ko ia naʻaku heka ai. 13 Pea ne u ʻalu kituaʻā ʻi he poʻuli ʻi he matapā ʻoe teleʻa, ʻo hangatonu mo e vaikeli ko e talākoni, pea ki he matapā fokotuʻunga veve, pea u vakai ki he ngaahi ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema, ʻaia naʻe holoki hifo, mo e ngaahi matapā ʻaia naʻe fakaʻauha ʻaki ʻae afi. 14 Pea naʻaku ʻalu ai pe ki he matapā ʻoe matavai, pea ki he anovai ʻoe tuʻi: pea naʻe ʻikai ha potu ke ʻalu ai ʻae manu naʻaku heka ai. 15 Pea naʻaku ʻalu hake ai ʻi he poʻuli ʻo ofi ki he vaitafe, ʻo vakai ki he ʻā maka, pea u tafoki ki mui, pea hū ʻi he matapā ʻoe teleʻa, pea toe foki atu ai. 16 Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he kau pule pe naʻaku ʻalu ki fē, pe ko ia naʻaku fai; pea naʻe teʻeki te u tala ia ki he kakai Siu, pe ki he kau taulaʻeiki, pe ki he houʻeiki, pe ki he kau pule, pe ki he toenga kakai naʻe fai ʻae ngāue.
