17 Ko e ngaahi feilaulau ʻoku fakahōifua ki he ʻOtuá ko ha laumālie mafesi;

Ko ha loto-mafesi mo lavea, ʻe ʻOtua, ʻe ʻikai te ke talitekeʻi.*+

15 He ko e folofola eni ʻa e Tokotaha Māʻolungá,

ʻA ia ʻokú ne moʻui* taʻengata+ pea ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ʻa hono huafá:+

“ʻOku ou nofo ʻi he feituʻu māʻolunga mo toputapu,+

Ka ʻoku ou toe ʻi he faʻahinga kuo lōmekina mo anga-fakatōkilaló,

Ke fakamoʻui hake ʻa e laumālie ʻo e faʻahinga ʻoku māʻulaló

Pea ke fakamoʻui hake ʻa e loto ʻo e faʻahinga kuo lōmekiná.+

 2 “Ko hoku nimá kuó ne ngaohi ʻa e ngaahi meʻá ni kotoa,

Pea naʻe peheni ʻa e anga ʻo ʻenau hoko kotoa maí,” ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe Sihová.+

“Ko e tokotaha leva eni te u vakai ki aí,

Ko e tokotaha ʻoku anga-fakatōkilalo mo laumālie mafesi ʻa ia ʻokú ne tetetete ʻi heʻeku* leá.+
