Taniela 12:1-13
12 “Lolotonga ʻa e taimi ko iá ʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Maikeli,*+ ʻa e ʻeiki lahi+ ʻa ia ʻokú ne tuʻu* maʻa ho kakaí.* Pea ʻe hoko ai ha taimi ʻo e faingataʻa ʻa ia kuo teʻeki ai ke hoko ha meʻa pehē talu mei he hoko mai ha puleʻanga ʻo aʻu mai ki he taimi ko iá. Pea ʻi he lolotonga ʻa e taimi ko iá ʻe hao+ ʻa ho kakaí, ʻa e tokotaha kotoa pē kuo hiki honau hingoá ʻi he tohí.+
2 Pea ko e tokolahi ʻo e faʻahinga ʻoku nau mohe ʻi he efu ʻo e kelekelé te nau ʻā hake, ko e niʻihi ki he moʻui taʻengata pea ko e niʻihi ki he luma mo e fehiʻanekinaʻi taʻengata.
3 “Pea ko e faʻahinga ʻoku nau maʻu ʻa e vavanga fakaefakakaukaú te nau ulo ngingila ʻo hangē ko e ʻatāloa ʻo e langí, pea ko e faʻahinga ʻoku nau ʻomai ʻa e tokolahi ki he māʻoniʻoní te nau hangē ko e ngaahi fetuʻú, ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata.
4 “Ko e meʻa kiate koé, Taniela, tauhi ʻa e ngaahi leá ke fakapulipuli, pea silaʻi ʻa e tohí kae ʻoua ke aʻu ki he taimi ʻo e ngataʻangá.+ ʻE lele holo ʻa e* tokolahi, pea ʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻa e ʻilo moʻoní.”+
5 Pea ko au, Taniela, naʻá ku mamata ki he toko ua ʻokú na tuʻu ʻi ai, ko e taha ʻi he kauvai ko eni ʻo e vaitafé pea ko e taha ʻi he kauvai ʻe tahá.+
6 Naʻe pehē ange leva ʻe he tokotaha ki he tangata naʻe kofu līneni,+ ʻa ia naʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi vai ʻo e vaitafé: “Ko e hā hono fuoloa pea aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo e ngaahi meʻa fakaofo ko ení?”
7 Naʻá ku fanongo leva ki he tangata naʻe kofu līnení, ʻa ia naʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi vai ʻo e vaitafé, ʻi heʻene hiki hake hono nima toʻomataʻú mo hono nima toʻohemá ki he langí ʻo ne fai ha fuakava ki he Tokotaha ʻa ia ʻoku moʻui taʻengatá:+ “Ko hono fuoloá ko ha kuonga, mo ha kuonga ʻe ua, mo e vaeuaʻi kuonga.* ʻI he ngata pē ʻa hono laiki ʻa e mafai ʻo e kakai māʻoniʻoní,+ ʻe ngata ai ʻa e ngaahi meʻá ni hono kotoa.”
8 Pea ko e meʻa kiate aú, naʻá ku fanongo, ka naʻe ʻikai lava ke u mahinoʻi;+ ko ia naʻá ku pehē ange: “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ko e hā ʻa e ikuʻanga ʻo e ngaahi meʻá ni?”
9 Naʻá ne pehē mai leva: “ʻAlu, ʻe Taniela, koeʻuhí ʻoku fiemaʻu ke tauhi ʻa e ngaahi leá ke fakapulipuli pea silaʻi kae ʻoua ke aʻu ki he taimi ʻo e ngataʻangá.+
10 Ko e tokolahi te nau fakamaʻa kinautolu pea fakahinehina kinautolu pea sivi.+ Pea ko e kau fulikivanú te nau fai ʻa e tōʻonga fulikivanu, pea ʻe ʻikai ha kau fulikivanu te nau mahinoʻi; ka ko e faʻahinga pē ʻoku nau maʻu ʻa e vavanga fakaefakakaukaú te nau mahinoʻí.+
11 “Pea mei he taimi ʻo hono toʻo ʻa e feilaulau tuʻumaʻú+ pea fokotuʻu ʻa e meʻa fakalielia ʻokú ne fakatupunga ʻa e ʻauhá,+ ko e ʻaho ʻe 1,290.
12 “Fiefia ē ko e tokotaha ʻokú ne hanganaki ʻamanaki* pea ʻokú ne aʻu ki he ʻaho ʻe 1,335!
13 “Ka ko e meʻa kiate koé, ʻalu atu ke aʻu ki he ngataʻangá. Te ke mālōlō, ka te ke tuʻu hake ʻo maʻu ho ʻinasí* ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo e ngaahi ʻahó.”+
