1 Samuel 15:22

Pea pehē ʻe Samuela, “He ʻoka fiemālie tatau pe ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngaahi feilaulau, ʻi he fai talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova? Vakai, ʻoku lelei lahi ʻae talangofua ʻi he feilaulau, pea ko e fakafanongo ʻi he ngako ʻoe fanga sipitangata.”

KO E TOHI TAPU KĀTOA

In The King James Version

And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

23He ʻoku tatau ʻae angatuʻu mo e hia ko e tuki fakatēvolo, pea ko e paongataʻa ʻoku tatau ia mo e hia ʻoe tauhi ʻotua loi. Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo liʻaki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, kuo ne liʻaki foki koe ke ʻoua naʻa ke tuʻi.
