Jeremiah 12:5

“Kapau kuo ke lele mo e kau tangata, pea kuo nau fakaongosiaʻi koe, te ke fakapuepue fēfē mo e fanga hoosi? Pea kapau kuo nau fakaongosiaʻi koe ʻi he fonua fiemālie, ʻaia naʻa ke falala ki ai, ko e hā te ke fai ʻi he lōmaki mai ʻa Sioatani?

KO E TOHI TAPU KĀTOA

In The King James Version

If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?

In Context

4‌ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe tangi ʻae kelekele, pea mae ʻae mohuku ʻoe ngoue, koeʻuhi ko e angahala ʻanautolu ʻoku nofo ai? Kuo fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi manu veʻe fā, mo e ngaahi manupuna; koeʻuhi naʻa nau pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te ne ʻafioʻi hotau ikuʻanga.’”

6He ko ho kāinga, mo e fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻio, naʻa mo kinautolu kuo nau fai kākā kiate koe; kuo nau kalanga mo tuli kiate koe: kaeʻoua naʻa ke tui kiate kinautolu ʻi heʻenau lea fakafiemālie kiate koe.”
