Ko ia naʻe toki tuku ʻe Pailato ʻa Sisu, ke kauʻimaea. Pea naʻe fī ʻe he kau tau ʻae tatā ʻakau talatala, ke ʻai ki hono fofonga, ʻonau ʻai kiate ia ʻae pulupulu kulokula. ‌ʻO nau lau, “Siʻotoʻofa tuʻi ʻoe kakai Siu!” Pea nau haha ia ʻaki honau nima. Ko ia naʻe toe ʻalu atu ai ʻa Pailato, ʻo ne tala kiate kinautolu, “Vakai, ʻoku ou ʻomi ia kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo haʻane kovi.” Pea ʻalu atu ʻa Sisu, kuo ʻai ʻae tatā ʻakau talatala, mo e pulupulu kulokula. Pea tala ʻe Pailato kiate kinautolu, “Vakai ki he tangata!” Ko ia ʻi he mamata ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi mo e kau matāpule kiate ia, naʻa nau kalanga, ʻo pehē, “Tutuki ki he ʻakau, tutuki ki he ʻakau.” Pea talaange ʻe Pailato, kiate kinautolu, Mou ʻave ia, ʻo tutuki ki he ʻakau: he ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo haʻane kovi. Pea talaange ʻe he kakai Siu kiate ia, “ʻOku ai ʻemau fono, pea ʻi heʻemau fono ʻoku totonu ʻene mate, koeʻuhi naʻa ne ui ia ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua.”
¶ Pea kuo fanongo ʻa Pailato ki he lea ko ia, pea ʻāsili ai ʻene manavahē; Pea toe ʻalu ia ki he fale fakamaau, ʻo ne fehuʻi kia Sisu, “ʻOku ke haʻu mei fē?” Ka naʻe ʻikai siʻi lea ʻa Sisu kiate ia. 10 Pea pehē ai ʻe Pailato kiate ia, “ʻIkai te ke lea kiate au? ʻIkai te ke ʻilo ʻoku ʻiate au ʻae mafai ke tutuki koe ki he ʻakau, pea ʻiate au mo e mafai ke tukuange koe?” 11 Pea talaange ʻe Sisu, “ʻE ʻikai te ke mafai ha meʻa kiate au, ʻo ka ne ʻikai foaki ia kiate koe mei ʻolunga: ko ia foki kuo tukuange au kiate koe, ʻoku lahi hake ʻene angahala.” 12 Pea talu mei ai mo e fie tukuange ia ʻe Pailato: ka naʻe kalanga ʻae kakai Siu, ʻo pehē, “Kapau te ke tukuange ʻae tangata ni, ʻoku ʻikai ko ha kāinga koe ʻo Sisa: ko ia ʻoku ne pehē, ko e tuʻi ia, ʻoku lea kovi ia kia Sisa.”
13 ¶ Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Pailato ki he lea ko ia, naʻa ne ʻomi ʻa Sisu kituʻa, ʻo nofo hifo ʻi he nofoʻa fakamaau, ʻi he potu ʻoku ui “ko e Falikimaka,” ’ ka ʻi he lea fakaHepelū, ko “Kapata.” 14 Pea ko e teuteu ki he kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu, pea ko hono ono nai ʻoe feituʻulaʻā: pea pehē ʻe ia ki he kakai Siu, “Vakai ko homou Tuʻi!” 15 Ka naʻa nau kalanga, “ʻAve ia, ʻave ia, tutuki ia ki he ʻakau.” Pea pehē ʻe Pailato kiate kinautolu, “Te u tutuki homou Tuʻi ki he ʻakau? Pea talaange ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki lahi, ʻOku ʻikai hamau tuʻi ka ko Sisa pē.” 16 Ko ia naʻa ne toki tukuange ai ia kiate kinautolu ke tutuki ki he ʻakau. Pea naʻa nau maʻu ʻa Sisu ʻo taki atu. 17 Pea fua ʻe ia hono ʻakau, ʻo ʻalu atu ki he potu ʻoku ui “ko e potu ʻoe ʻulupoko,” ʻaia ʻoku ui ʻi he lea fakaHepelū ko “Kolokota:” 18 ‌ʻO nau tutuki ai ia ki he ʻakau, mo e toko ua kehe mo ia, ʻi hono potu fakatouʻosi pe, kae ʻi hona vahaʻa ʻa Sisu.
19 ¶ Pea naʻe tohi ʻe Pailato ha tohi fakaʻilonga, ʻo ʻai ia ki ke ʻakau. Pea ko e tohi naʻe pehē, KO SISU ʻO NĀSALETI, KO E TUʻI ʻOE KAKAI SIU. 20 Pea naʻe lau ʻae tohi ni ʻe he tokolahi ʻoe kakai Siu: he ko e potu kuo tutuki ai ʻa Sisu naʻe ofi ki he kolo; pea naʻe tohi ia ʻi he lea fakaHepelū, mo e lea fakaKiliki, mo e lea fakaLoma. 21 Pea lea ai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi ʻoe kakai Siu kia Pailato, “ʻOua ʻe tohi, ‘Ko e tuʻi ʻoe kakai Siu:’ kae tohi ‘Naʻe lau ʻe ia, Ko e Tuʻi au ʻoe kakai Siu.’ ” 22 Pea talaange ʻe Pailato, “Ko ia kuo u tohi, kuo u tohi.”
23 ¶ Pea kuo tutuki ki he ʻakau ʻa Sisu ʻe he kau tau, pea nau toʻo hono ngaahi kofu ʻo vahe fā, ʻo taki taha ʻae tangata hono vahe; mo e kofutuʻa foki: pea naʻe ʻikai hano hokoʻanga ʻi he kofutuʻa, ʻi hono lalanga, mei ʻolunga ʻo fai ki lalo. 24 Ko ia naʻa nau pehē ai ʻiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa tau hae ia, ka tau talotalo ki ai ke ʻa hai ia:” ʻo fakamoʻoni ai ʻae tohi ʻoku pehē,
“Naʻa nau tufa hoku ngaahi kofu ʻiate kinautolu,
pea nau talotalo ki hoku kofutuʻa.
Naʻe pehē ʻae ngāue ʻae kau tau.”
25 ¶ Pea naʻe tutuʻu, ʻo ofi ki he ʻakau ʻo Sisu, ʻa ʻene faʻē, mo e tokoua ʻo ʻene faʻē, ko Mele ko e ʻunoho ʻo Kaliopasi, mo Mele Makitaline. 26 Ko ia ʻi he mamata ʻa Sisu ki heʻene faʻē, mo e ākonga ko ia naʻa ne ʻofa ai, ʻoku tuʻu ʻo ofi, naʻa ne pehē ki heʻene faʻē, “Fefine, vakai ko hoʻo tama!” 27 Pea lea ai ia ki he ākonga, “Vakai ko hoʻo faʻē!” Pea talu mei he feituʻulaʻā ko ia naʻe ʻave ia ʻe he ākonga ko ia ki hono ʻapi.
28 ¶ Pea hili ia, pea ʻilo ʻe Sisu kuo fai ʻo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, pea koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoniʻi ʻae tohi, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou fieinu.” 29 Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻi ai ʻae ipu fonu ʻi he vai mahi: pea naʻa nau unu ʻae oma ʻi he vai mahi, ʻo ʻai ia ki ke kauʻi ʻisope, pea ʻohake ia ki hono fofonga. 30 Pea kuo maʻu ʻe Sisu ʻae vai mahi, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hono ngata ia:” pea punou hono fofonga, ʻo tuku hake hono laumālie. 31 Pea ko e ʻaho teuteu ia, pea telia naʻa ʻi he ʻakau ʻae ngaahi sino ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate, (he ko e ʻaho Sāpate ko ia ko e ʻaho lahi,) ko ia naʻe kole ai ʻae kakai Siu kia Pailato, ke fesiʻi honau vaʻe, pea ke ʻave ʻakinautolu. 32 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau tau, ʻo fesiʻi ʻae vaʻe ʻoe ʻuluaki, mo e tokotaha naʻe tutuki ki he ʻakau mo ia. 33 Ka ʻi heʻenau hoko kia Sisu, ʻo vakai kuo mate ia, naʻe ʻikai te nau fesiʻi hono vaʻe. 34 Ka ko e tokotaha ʻoe kau tau, naʻa ne hokaʻi hono vakavaka ʻaki ʻae tao, pea naʻe tafe leva mei ai ʻae toto mo e vai. 35 Pea ko ia naʻa ne mamata, ʻoku ne fakamoʻoni ki ai, pea ʻoku moʻoni ʻene fakamoʻoni: pea ʻoku ne ʻilo ʻoku ne lea moʻoni, koeʻuhi ke mou tui. 36 He naʻe fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, ke fakamoʻoni ai ʻae tohi, “ʻE ʻikai fesiʻi ha hui ʻe taha ʻoʻona.” 37 Pea ʻoku pehē mo e tohi ʻe taha, “Te nau sio kiate ia kuo nau hokaʻi.”
38 ¶ Pea hili ia, ko Siosefa ʻo ʻAlematea, ko e ākonga ia ʻa Sisu, kae fakalilolilo pe, ko ʻene manavahē ki he kakai Siu, naʻe kole ia kia Pailato ke ne ʻave ʻae sino ʻo Sisu: pea loto ki ai ʻa Pailato. Ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ia, ʻo ne ʻave ʻae sino ʻo Sisu. 39 Pea naʻe haʻu mo ia ʻa Nikotimasi, ʻaia naʻe fuofua haʻu kia Sisu ʻi he poʻuli, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻae mula mo e ʻalosi naʻe fehuʻi ʻaki, ko e lau teau nai hono mamafa. 40 Pea nau toʻo ʻae sino ʻo Sisu, ʻo fakakoloa ʻaki ia ʻae tupenu, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakakakala, ʻo fakatatau ki he anga ʻae kakai Siu ʻi he fai meʻa fakaʻeiki. 41 Pea naʻe ʻi he potu naʻe tutuki ai ia ki he ʻakau ha ngoue; pea ʻi he ngoue ʻae fonualoto foʻou, naʻe teʻeki tuku ki ai ha taha. 42 Pea naʻa nau tuku ki ai ʻa Sisu, koeʻuhi ko e ʻaho teuteu ʻoe kakai Siu: he naʻe ofi ʻae fonualoto.
