Esetalasi 1:1-11
1 ʼI te ʼuluaki taʼu ʼo te pule ʼa Siliusi te Hau+ ʼo Pelesia, neʼe hoko ai leva te folafola ʼa Sehova ʼae neʼe fakaha e Selemia.+ Neʼe uga e Sehova te ʼatamai ʼo Siliusi te Hau ʼo Pelesia ke ina tala ʼi tona puleʼaga katoa, pea ke ina toe tohi foki+ te faʼahi ʼaeni:
2 “Koʼeni te folafola ʼa Siliusi te Hau ʼo Pelesia: ‘Neʼe foaki mai kia au e Sehova te ʼAtua ʼo te ʼatu lagi ia te ʼu puleʼaga fuli ʼo te kele,+ pea neʼe ina fakatotonu mai ke au laga he fale maʼa ia ʼi Selusalemi,+ ʼi Suta.
3 Ko he tahi pe ia koutou ʼe kau ki tana hahaʼi, ke nofo tona ʼAtua mo ia. Pea ke hake ki Selusalemi, ʼi Suta, ʼo toe laga te fale ʼo Sehova te ʼAtua ʼo Iselaele, ʼae neʼe tuʼu ʼi Selusalemi.* ʼE ko ia te ʼAtua moʼoni.
4 Pea ko he tahi pe ʼe nofo ohage ko he matapule,+ ʼi he potu pe, ke tokoni ʼona vahaʼa fale* ki ai ʼo foaki age he siliva mo he aulo, he ʼu koloa mo he faga manu, ʼo toe feia pe mo ni meʼa ʼofa neʼe natou fai ʼaki he lotolelei maʼa te fale ʼo te ʼAtua moʼoni,+ ʼae neʼe tuʼu ʼi Selusalemi.’ ”
5 Pea ko te ʼu pule famili ʼo Suta mo Pesamino, ʼo feia pe mo te kau pelepitelo mo te kau Levite, ia natou fuli ʼae neʼe uga e te ʼAtua moʼoni ʼonatou ʼatamai, neʼe natou teuteu leva ke natou olo ʼo toe laga te fale ʼo Sehova, ʼae neʼe tuʼu ʼi Selusalemi.
6 Ko natou fuli ʼae ʼi ʼonatou tafaʼaki, neʼe tokoni kia natou ʼo natou foaki age* he ʼu meʼa neʼe fai ʼaki te siliva mo te aulo, mo he ʼu koloa, mo he faga manu mo he ʼu meʼa maʼuhiga, ʼo feia pe mo he ʼu meʼa ʼofa neʼe foaki ʼaki he lotolelei.
7 Neʼe toe fakaliliu foki e te Hau ko Siliusi te ʼu meʼa ʼo te fale ʼo Sehova, ʼae neʼe toʼo e Nepukanesa ʼi Selusalemi ʼo ina tuku ki te fale ʼo tona ʼatua.+
8 Neʼe fakaliliu te ʼu meʼa ʼaia e Siliusi te Hau ʼo Pelesia ʼi te takitaki ʼa Miteletate, te tagata pule koloa, ʼae neʼe ina tohi te ʼu meʼa ʼaia maʼa Sesepatesale,*+ te pule ʼo Suta.
9 Koʼeni te ʼu meʼa ʼaia: ko te ʼu pesini aulo ʼe 30, mo te ʼu pesini siliva ʼe 1 000, mo te tahi age ʼu pesini ʼe 29,
10 mo te ʼu kiʼi ipu aulo ʼe 30, mo te ʼu kiʼi ipu siliva ʼe 410, pea mo te tahi age ʼu meʼa ʼe 1 000.
11 Ko te lahi ʼo te ʼu meʼa fuli ʼae neʼe fai ʼaki te aulo mo te siliva, neʼe 5 400. Neʼe ʼave e Sesepatesale te ʼu meʼa fuli ʼaia, ʼi te temi ʼae neʼe mavae ai ia natou ʼae neʼe maʼuʼuli popula ʼi Papiloni,+ ʼo olo ki Selusalemi.
