8 and but I to fill strength [obj] spirit LORD and justice and might to/for to tell to/for Jacob transgression his and to/for Israel sin his
Ka ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou pito ʻi he mālohi mei he Laumālie ʻo Sihova, pea mo e fakamaau, mo e faʻa fai, ke fakahā kia Sēkope ʻene hia, pea ki ʻIsileli ʻa ʻene angahala.
