KO E TOHI TAPU KĀTOA

In The King James Version

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

In Context

10Ko au Sihova ʻoku ou vakili ʻae loto, ʻoku ou hakule ʻae ngaahi mahalo, ke foaki ki he tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene ngaahi ʻulungāanga, pea tatau mo e fua ʻo ʻene faianga.”
