1:16 Ompi' -ku to kupe'ahi'! Neo' -ta ma'ala rabagiu: Alata'ala uma-i-hana mposori-ta.

1:17 Hawe'ea pewai' to lompe' pai' to hono' tarata ngkai Alata'ala-hana. Hi'a-mi to mpajadi' hawe'ea anu mehini hi langi'. Hawe'ea to mehini hi langi' toe, ria kabalia' -na. Aga Alata'ala, uma-hana ria kabalia' -na, pai' uma wo'o ria ka'uncua kalompea' -na.

1:18 Napohowa' -taka lolita-na to makono, pai' hante lolita-na toe napajadi' -tamo ana' -na. Nababehi toe ntuku' konoa-na moto, bona ngkai hawe'ea to napajadi', kita' jadi' pomobohea-na.

1:19 ¶ Ompi' -ku to kupe'ahi'! Penonoi lompe' -e' tohe'i: Butu dua-ta kana rodo mpe'epei, neo' haliu mololita pai' neo' jolia moroe.

1:20 Apa' tauna to moroe, uma-ra mpotuku' konoa Alata'ala.

1:21 Toe pai' kana tabahaka hawe'ea gau' to babo' pai' po'ingku to dada'a to jadi' kabiasaa-ta, pai' tapakadingki' nono-ta mpe'epei lolita to nahawu' Alata'ala hi rala nono-ta. Apa' lolita-na toe-mi to mobaraka' mpobahaka-ta ngkai huku' jeko' -ta.

1:23 Tauna to mpo'epe Lolita Pue' pai' uma ratuku', hira' hewa tauna to mponaa lence-na hi pampewao'.

1:24 Ka'oti-na nanaa lence-na pai' -i malai, uma-pi nakiwoi ba beiwa-ki lence-na.
