(Pea ko e hingoa mu‘a ‘o e kolo ko Lusa.) 24Pea na‘e vakai ‘e he asiasi ha tangata ‘oku ne hū mai mei he kolo, pea nau pehē kiate ia, Fakahā mai mu‘a ‘a e hū‘anga ki he kolo, pea te mau fai ‘ofa kiate koe. 25Pea ne faka‘ilo kiate kinautolu ‘a e hū‘anga ki he kolo, pea na‘a nau taa‘i ‘a e kolo ‘aki ‘a e mata ‘o e heletā; ka na‘e tukuange pē ‘a e tangata mo hono fāmili kātoa. 26Pea ‘alu ‘a e tangata ia ki he fonua ‘o ha‘a Heti, ‘o ne langa ai ha kolo, ‘o ne fakahingoa ko Lusa; pea ko hono hingoa ia ‘o a‘u ki he ‘aho ni.

27Pea na‘e ‘ikai kapusi ‘e Manase ‘a e kakai ‘o Pete-sani mo e ngaahi kolo na‘e fakaongo kiate ia, pe ko Ta‘anaka mo hono ngaahi kolo, pe ko e kakai ‘o Toa mo hono ngaahi kolo, pe ko e kakai ‘Ipileami mo hono ngaahi kolo, pe ko e kakai Mekito mo hono ngaahi kolo: he na‘e pau ‘a ha‘a Kēnani ke nofo ‘i he fonua. 28Pea ‘i he hoko ‘o kaukaua ‘a ‘Isileli, na‘a nau fakafatongia‘i ‘a ha‘a Kēnani, ka na‘e ‘ikai te nau kapusi ‘aupito."
