Ko hoʻo kau tangata fakatau kuo ke fakatokolahi ʻi he ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe langi: ʻoku fai ʻae maumau ʻe he ʻunufe, pea ne puna atu.

KO E TOHI TAPU KĀTOA

In The King James Version

Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and fleeth away.

In Context

15‌ʻE kai koe ʻe he afi ʻi ai; ʻe motuhi koe ʻe he heletā, te ne kai koe ke ʻosi hangē ko e ʻunufe; fakatokolahi koe ʻo hangē ko e ʻunufe, fakatokolahi koe ke hangē ko e heʻe.

17‌ʻOku tatau ho ngaahi tuʻi mo e fanga heʻe, mo hoʻo kau pule mo e fanga heʻe lalahi, ʻaia ʻoku nofo ʻi he ngaahi ʻā ʻi he ʻaho momoko, ka ka hopo hake ʻae laʻā ʻoku nau puna atu, pea ʻoku ʻikai ke kei ʻilo ʻa honau potu pe ʻoku nau ʻi fē.
