1 ʻOku fakahā ʻe Tevita ʻene fiefia koeʻuhi ko e siasi, 6 Pea ʻoku ne lotu ke fiemālie ia.
Ko e Hiva ʻa Tevita maʻae ʻalu hake.
Naʻaku fiefia ʻi heʻenau pehē mai kiate au,
“Ke tau ō ki he fale ʻo Sihova.”
‌ʻE tuʻu homau vaʻe ki lotoʻā ʻi ho ngaahi matapā,
ʻE Selūsalema.
Kuo langa ʻa Selūsalema ʻo hangē ko e kolo ʻoku māʻopoʻopo:
‌ʻAia ʻoku ʻalu hake ki ai ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga,
ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo Sihova, ki he fakamoʻoni ʻa ʻIsileli,
ke ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.
He ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fakamaau,
ko e ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fale ʻo Tevita.
Mou hūfia ke melino ʻa Selūsalema:
“ʻE monūʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau ʻofa kiate koe.
Ke ʻai ʻae melino ʻi ho ngaahi lotoʻā maka,
mo e monūʻia ʻi ho ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki.”
Pea koeʻuhi ko hoku ngaahi kāinga mo hoku ngaahi kaumeʻa,
te u lea ni, “Ke ʻiate koe ʻae melino.”
Koeʻuhi ko e fale ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua,
te u kumi ke ke lelei ai.
