Ka ko kinautolu naʻa nau tali iá, naʻá ne ʻange kiate kinautolu ha tāpuaki, ke nau hoko ko e fānau ʻa e ʻOtuá, ʻio, ʻa e faʻahinga ʻoku tui pi̇̄kitai ki hono huafá.

ʻI he kamata‘angá, naʻe ʻi ai ʻa Folofola. Pea na‘e ʻi ai ʻa Folofola mo e ‘Otuá. Pea ko e ‘Otuá ʻa Folofola.

Pea ʻoku ulo ʻa e maama ko iā, ʻi he fakapo‘uli̇́. Pea ʻoku ʻikai lava ʻe he poʻuli̇́, ke ne taʻofi mai.

Pea hoko ʻa Folofola ko e tangata, ʻo ne ʻafio ʻi hotau lotolotongá. Pea naʻa tau mamata tonu ki hono lāngilangi̇ ʻoʻoná. Ko e lāngilangi naʻe taau mo e Foha pē taha, ʻa ia kuo hokomai mei̇́ he Tamai̇́, ʻokú ne fonu ʻi he kelesi mo e moʻoni.

Na‘e fou mai ʻiate ia, ʻa hono fakatupu ‘o e meʻa kotoa pē. Pea naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe fakatupu, ʻo taʻekau ʻa Folofola, ʻi heʻene hokomai̇́. ʻOku ʻiate ia ʻa e moʻui̇́. Pea ko e mo‘ui ko iā, ko e maama ia ki he kakai kotoa pē.

ʻI he ʻaho naʻe hokó, naʻá ne sio kia Si̇̄sū ʻoku haʻu kiate ia, pea ne pehēange: ‟Ko ena ʻa e Lami ʻa e ʻOtua, ʻa ia ‘okú ne ʻave ʻa e angahala ʻa māmani̇́.

Naʻá ne ʻi māmani, pea ko e hokomai ʻa māmani̇́, naʻe fou mai ʻiate ia, ka naʻe ʻikai ʻiloʻi ia ʻe māmani̇. Naʻá ne haʻu ki heʻene meʻa ʻaʻana tonu, ka naʻe ʻikai tali ia, ʻe hono kakai tonu ʻoʻoná.

Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻa e maama moʻoniá, ʻa ia ʻokú ne hulungia ʻa e kakai kotoa pē, kuó ne haʻu ki māmani.

He ko Mōsese naʻá ne foaki mai ʻa e Laó, kae hokomai ʻa e kelesi̇́ mo e moʻoni̇́, ʻia Si̇̄sū Kalaisi.
