  1. ꞋI naꞋo maꞋi, ngwae ana fanoa ki ana magalia kira toꞋo goꞋo ana taꞋi alaꞋanga goꞋo, ma kira ka alaꞋa goꞋo Ꞌani alaꞋanga neꞋeri goꞋo.
  2. Ma kaidaꞋi kira Ꞌidu Ꞌuana bali ana fanelana sina, kira ka dao toꞋona taꞋi oleolea neꞋe kira saea Ꞌania Ꞌi Babilon. Ma kira ka saungaꞋinia fanoa doe kira Ꞌi neꞋeri.
  3. Ma kira ka fata Ꞌuri, “Reala kwa! Kulu ngalia ta afu ano, ma kulu ka saungaꞋinia Ꞌania ti afu brik, ma kulu ka doꞋofiꞋi ana mafula fasi Ꞌiri ke ngasi.” KaidaꞋi kira sasi ꞋunaꞋeri kira toꞋo ana brik Ꞌoro fuana saungaꞋi lumaꞋanga, ma kira ka toꞋo ana saia fuana Ꞌadolani. Kira kasi rao Ꞌani fau ki ma sement.
  4. Sui kira ka fata Ꞌuri, “Nia leꞋa fuakulu kuke saungaꞋinia ta fanoa doe fuakulu neꞋe nia ke baꞋa toꞋo ana ta luma ana neꞋe raꞋe ka leka leka Ꞌana ka dao maꞋi ana mamanga. ꞋI neꞋeri kuke baꞋa toꞋo ana sataꞋi ngwae doe, ma noaꞋa kulu kasi tua taka fili kulu saena magalia neꞋe taꞋifau, bore ma kulu ke tua fiku goꞋo.”
  5. Ma kaidaꞋi kira saungaꞋi fanoa doe faꞋinia luma neꞋeri, Iawe ka koso maꞋi ka lisia raoꞋa kira,
  6. ma nia ka fata Ꞌuri, “Lia basi, kira tua fiku goꞋo diꞋia taꞋi ngwae, ma kira ka alaꞋa goꞋo Ꞌania taꞋi alaꞋanga. Na luma nini kira fiꞋi saungaꞋinia goꞋo na ru etaeta kira ke sasi. ꞋI buri, kira ke baꞋa sasia ta ru bore Ꞌana neꞋe kira naia.
  7. Ru leꞋa fuana kuke koso toli ma kuka kwatea alaꞋalada ke kwaidolangaꞋi, fasi Ꞌiri kira kasi rongo saiana alaꞋalana ti ai.”
  8. ꞋIu Iawe ka kwate kira ka tua kwailiu ana kula ki taꞋifau ana magalia, ma kira noaꞋa kasi saungaꞋinia naꞋa fanoa doe neꞋeri.
  9. Na satana fanoa neꞋeri neꞋe Ꞌi Babilon*, osiꞋana kula neꞋeri na Iawe nia kwatea alaꞋanga ngwae ki ka kwaidolangaꞋi saena magalia, ma ana kula neꞋeri, ma nia ka lalia ngwae ki fasi Ꞌiri kike leka tua kwailiu ana kula ki taꞋifau saena magalia.

* Ana ala’anga ̕ i Hebru, ‘Babilon’ fadalana ne’e ‘Confused-kaubare’. Ma Ꞌi Babilon nia ta mae toto ana ngwae aburongo ana God.
