Judges 19:9

Pea ʻi he tuʻu hake ʻae tangata ke ʻalu, mo hono uaifi, mo ʻene tamaioʻeiki, naʻe lea ʻene tamai ʻi he fono ʻaia ko e tamai ʻae fefine, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko eni, vakai, ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ʻae ʻaho ke efiafi, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe tau mohe: vakai, kuo tei ʻosi ʻae ʻaho, tau mohe ʻi heni, ke fiemālie ho loto; pea ʻalu hengihengi ʻapongipongi ʻi homou hala, koeʻuhi ke ke hoko atu ki ho ʻapi.”

KO E TOHI TAPU KĀTOA

In The King James Version

And when the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father in law, the damsel’s father, said unto him, Behold, now the day draweth toward evening, I pray you tarry all night: behold, the day groweth to an end, lodge here, that thine heart may be merry; and to morrow get you early on your way, that thou mayest go home.

In Context

8Pea tuʻu hengihengi hake ia ʻi hono nima ʻoe ʻaho ke ʻalu: pea pehē ʻe he tamai ʻae fefine kiate ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, fakafiemālieʻi ho loto.” Pea naʻa nau tatali ʻo aʻu ki he hoʻatā efiafi nai, pea na kai fakatouʻosi pe.

10Ka naʻe ʻikai tatali ʻe he tangata ʻi he pō ko ia, ka naʻe tuʻu hake ia ʻo ʻalu, pea hoko ʻo feʻunga mo Sepusi, ʻaia ko Selūsalema; pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae ʻasi ʻe ua mo e hekaʻanga, pea mo hono uaifi foki.
