FOUNGA KI HONO AKO ‘O E TOHITAPU´

Preface to the King James Version of 1611

KO E KAMATA’ANGA

Ko e tokolahi taha ‘o e kakai ‘i māmani ‘i he ‘aho ni´, ‘oku ‘ikai te nau toka’i ‘a e Tohitapu´.’Oku nau femo’uekina pē kinautolu ‘i he kumi ‘o e fiefia ‘o ‘enau mo’ui faka‘aho´, ‘o ‘ikai ha taimi ke nau fakatokanga’i ai pe ko e hā honau iku’anga ta’engata´. Ko e taimi ‘oku talanoa atu ai ha taha fekau’aki mo e fekau ‘o e Tohitapu´, ‘oku ‘ikai ke nau fu’u mahu’inga’ia ai. Ko ‘enau fanongo´ ko e tohi ia ‘oku fonu ‘i he ngaahi fananga mo e talatupu’a, pea ko ia ai ‘oku nau faka’ikai’i hono mahu’inga kiate kinautolu´. Ko e ni’ihi kuo nau feinga ke lau ‘a e Tohitapu´, ka ko e fakamamahi ‘a e ‘ikai ke nau mahino’i ia´. Pea mahalo pē ko e taha koe ‘oku fa’a fehu’i ‘o pehē, “Ko e hā hono ‘uhinga ‘oku totonu ke u ako ai ‘a e Tohitapu´?”

‘Oku lahi ‘a e ngaahi ‘uhinga ‘oku fakahā ai ‘a e mātu’aki ‘aonga hono ako ‘o e Tohitapu´, ka te u ‘omai ha ‘uhinga pē ‘e taha. Ko e Folofola mā’oni’oni´ ko e mālohi liliu mo’ui ia ‘i ha feitu’u pē. ‘I he malanga’i ‘o e Kosipeli´pea mo e tui ki ai´, kuo liliu ai ‘a e ngaahi mo’ui ‘a e kakai tangata mo fefine, kuo a’usia ai ‘e he talavou´ mo e finemui´ ha liukava ‘i he’enau mo’ui´ pea kuo hiki hake ai ‘a e ‘ulungaanga ‘o e ngaahi sosaieti (pe falukunga kakai) tokolahi ki ha ngaahi tu’unga fo’ou. Ko e taha ‘o e fakatātā ‘o e mo’oni ko eni´, ko e me’a fakahisitōlia na’e hoko pea fakatefito mei ai ‘a e talanoa ‘iloa ko ia ko e, “Mutiny on the Bounty”, (Ko e angatu’u ‘a e kau kauvaka ‘o e vaka ko e “Bounty”). Ko e fakamo’oni fakaofo eni ki he me’a ‘oku mafeia ‘e he Tohitapu´.

‘I he ta’u 1888, ko ha kau kauvaka mei ‘Ingilani kuo ta’u ‘e ono ‘e nau ‘i he motu ‘i he Pasifiki´, pea nau fakakaukau ke nau nofo ai pē kinautolu. Ko ia ai na’a nau angatu’u ai ki honau ‘eikivaka´ ‘o fakat‘kina’i ia ‘i ha ki’i vaka fokotu’u. Na’e fai mai leva ‘a e folau mei ‘Ingilani ko hono kumi kinautolu ke tautea’i. Na’e puke ‘a e toko 14 ‘o e kau angatu’u´ kae ‘ave ‘a e toko 9 ia ki he motu ‘e taha, ‘a ia ‘i ai na’a nau fokotu’u kolonia fo’ou. ‘Oku ‘asi ‘i he tohi “Britannica Encyclopedia” ko e kakai ko ia´, na’e fu’u vave ‘enau faka’au ‘o kovi ‘aupito, pea na’a nau anga-fita’a ‘o hangē ‘enau nofo´ ko ha heli ‘i māmani´. Pea ‘i he’enau ako ke ngaohi kava mālohi mei ha ‘akau ‘i he motu´, na’a nau nofo ai ‘i he feke’ike’i, fai fe’auaki mo e fakalielia lahi ‘i he konā mei he kava mālohi´.

Faifai atu pē ‘o ‘osi ‘a e kau tangata´ he mate kae toe pē ‘a e tokotaha ko ‘Alekisānita Smith mo e kakai fefine mei he motu´ mo ‘enau fānau hafekasi´. Pea na’e hoko leva ha me’a fakaofo. Hili ha’ane ma’u ‘i he taha ‘o e ngaahi puha mei he vaka´ ha Tohitapu, na’e lau ia ‘e Smith pea´ ne tui ki ai. Na’a´ ne fakatahataha’i leva ‘a e kau fefine´ mo ‘enau fānau´ ‘o ‘ako’i kiate kinautolu ‘a e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´. Hili ange mei ai ‘a e ta’u ‘e ua noa, na’e fou atu ai ha vaka ‘Amelika ‘o ‘ilo ai ha fonua Kalisitiane. Na’e ‘ikai ke ‘i ai ha mahamahaki, faihia, ‘atamai vaivai, vale he lautohi´ (pe ‘i he laukonga´) pea ‘ikai mo ha kava mālohi. Na’e fu’u mā’olunga ‘a e tu’unga faka‘ulungaanga ‘o e kakai´, ko ia ai na’e ‘ikai ke ‘i ai ha fiema’u ia ki ha fakafofonga lao. Na’e hangē pē ‘a e ki’i motu´ ia ko ha palataisi´. Ko e hā ‘o e tupu’anga ‘o e liliu fakaofo ko eni´? Ko e lau pē ‘o e Tohitapu´, tui ki ai pea fakahoko ‘i he’ete mo’ui’aki.

‘Oku malava ‘e he tohi tatau pē ko eni´ ke ne liliu ho’o mo’ui´, pea ko e ‘uhinga ia ‘oku mātu’aki mahu’inga ai mo ‘aonga lahi ‘a e ngaahi fekau ‘o e “Founga ki hono ako ‘o e Tohitapu´”. Ka kiate koe ke ke ‘a’usia ‘a e ivi pē mālohi ‘o e Kosipeli´ ‘i ha lea atu ‘a e ‘Otua´ kia koe, kuopau ke ke fai ha laka kiate ia. Kapau ‘oku te’eki ai ke ke fanau’i fo’ou, kuopau ke ke fai ha fili ‘i ho’o fehangahangai mo e mo’oni´, ‘a ia ko e angahala koe na’e pekia ai ‘a Sīsu´. Vete ki he ‘Eiki´ ho tãkunga mole´ pea tui ki he ‘Eiki ko Sīsū Kalaisi´. Ko e ‘Otua´ te ne fakamolemole’i ho’o angahala´ mo fai ha mana ‘iate koe. Pea koia pē ‘a e me’a te ke toki lava ai ke ako ‘a e Tohitapu´ ‘o mateuteu ke tali ko ia ‘a e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´ pea loto lelei ke talangofua ki he’ene ngaahi akonaki´.

I. KO E FIEMA’U KIMU’A ‘I HE FAKATUPU FO’OU´

‘Oku ‘ikai malava ke ke makupusi ’a e fekau fakalaumālie ‘o e Tohitapu´ kae‘oua leva kuo´ ke fakatupu fo’ou ‘i he mālohi ‘o e ‘Otua´. Na’e fakamahino’i ange eni ‘e Sīsū kia Nikotimasi ‘i he’ene pehē, “Pea tali ‘e Sīsū, ‘o ne folofola kiate ia, Ko au e, ko au e, ‘oku ou tala atu, ‘Ilonga ‘a ia ‘e ‘ikai fānau‘i fo‘ou mei ‘olunga, ‘e ‘ikai te ne lava ke mamata ki he Pule‘anga ‘o e ‘Otua.” (Sione 3:3) Kimu’a ke ke ako hokohoko ‘a e Tohitapu´, fehu’i kiate koe ‘a e fehu’i ko eni´, “Kuo u ‘osi fanau’i fo’ou´?” Ko e mo’oni ho’o mahu’inga’ia heni´, ko e faka’ilonga ia ‘oku lea atu ‘a e ‘Otua kiate koe ‘i he’ene Folofola´ pea ‘i hono Laumālie Mā’oni’oni. Ka kuopau ke ke tali ia. Kuopau ke ke vete ho’o angahala´, pea tui ki he ‘Eiki ko Sīsū Kalaisi´ ‘o tali ia ko ho Fakamo’ui. ‘I ho’o fakahoko eni´, ‘e foaki atu ai ‘e he ‘Otua´ kiate koe ha mo’ui fo’ou pea mo ha vā fo’ou mo ia.

A. Ko e Mo’ui Fo’ou

‘Oku fakamahino mai ‘e he Tohitapu´ ko e fanau’i fo’ou´ ko e founga ia ke ma’u ai ‘a e mo’ui fo’ou´ mei he ‘Otua´. Na’e pehē ‘e Paula, ko e maama´ ‘a e ngaahi taumu’a ‘o hotau tangata-‘i-loto´. ‘Oku´ ne tuhu (pe Kalisitiane´ ko e fakatupu fo’ou ia, “Ko ia foki, kapau ‘oku ‘ia Kalaisi ha taha, ko e mātu‘aki fakatupu fo‘ou ia: kuo mole ‘a e ngaahi me‘a ‘o ono‘aho´, u‘ kuo nau hoko ‘o fo‘ou” (2 Kol. 5:17), pea pehē ‘e Pita, ko e kakai tui´ ko e kau “kaungā kau ki hono anga ‘Otua´” (2 Pita 1:4). ‘Oku ‘ikai malava ke mahino’i ‘e he tokotaha te’eki fanau’i fo’ou´ ke ne mahino’i ‘a e Tohitapu´ he ‘oku´ ne kei “ ‘i he kakano´”; ‘a ia na’e fanau’i ia ko e angahala pea ‘oku´ ne mate ‘i he’ene angahala´ (Efesō 2:1). ‘Oku fakahā mai ‘e he Tohitapu´, “Ko kinautolu ‘oku muimui ‘i he kakano´, ‘oku nau tokanga pē ki he ngaahi me’a ‘o e kakano´ ...koe’uhi´, he ko e loto fakakakano´ ko e tāufehi’a ia ki he ‘Otua´; he ‘oku ‘ikai ke ne fakamo’ulaloa’i ‘e ia ia ki he fono ‘a e ‘Otua´, pea ‘e ‘ikai pē ke malava ia” (Loma 8:5, 7). Ko e tangata te’eki fakatupu fo’ou´, ‘oku ‘ikai ke malava ke ne ma’uhinga mālie ‘i he Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´;

“Ka ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻe he tangata fakakakano ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoe Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua: he ko e vale ia kiate ia: pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne faʻa ʻilo ia, he ʻoku ʻilo fakalaumālie pe ia. Ka ko ia ʻoku fakalaumālie ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae meʻa kotoa pē, ka ʻoku ʻikai faʻa ʻiloʻi ia ʻe ha taha.” (1Kol.2:14-15)

Koe’uhi´ ‘oku kui mo mate fakalaumālie ‘a e tangata´ mei natula, ko ia ai ko e mo’ui fo’ou ‘i he a’usia ‘o e fakatupu fo’ou´ ‘oku fu’u mahu’inga mo fiema’u ia ki hono mahino’i ‘o e fekau fakalaumālie ‘o e Tohitapu´. ‘E malava pē ki ha taha te’eki fanau’i fo’ou ke sai’ia ‘i hono fa’unga´ mo hono faka’ofo’ofa fakatohi´, pea ke ne ofoofo ai ‘i he tonu hono fokotu’utu’u fakahisitōlia´; ka ‘e ‘ikai malava ke ne ma’u ha fakanonga, mālohi, mo ha fiefia fakalaumālie mei hono ngaahi peesi´. Ko ha tokotaha tui na’e ‘ikai ako lelei, ka ‘i he’ene ma’u ‘a e mo’ui fo’ou´ te ne ‘ilo ‘i he Folofola´ ha fakaai ‘oku ta’engata ‘o e tokoni´ mo e tāpuaki´. Pea ko hono mo’oni´, te ne ‘ilo ai ‘e ‘ikai malava ia ke mo’ui ‘o ‘ikai kau ai ‘a e Tohitapu´ he ko ia ‘ene me’akai fakalaumālie´. Ko e mo’ui fo’ou kuo ne ma’u´ kuopau ke fafanga’aki ia ‘a e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´, he ‘oku lau ki ai ‘a e Tohitapu´ ko ia ‘a e hu’akau (3 Pita 2:2, Hepelã 5:13) mo e me’atokoni mālohi (Hepelã 5:14). Ko ia ai, manatu’i, kuopau ke ke ma’u ‘a e mo’ui fo’ou ko ia´ mei he ‘Otua´, kae toki hoko ‘ene Folofola´ ko e ma’u’anga ‘o e tāpuaki lahi ‘i ho’o mo’ui´.

B. Ko e Vā Fo’ou

Ko e me’a hono ua ‘oku hoko ‘i he tali ‘e ha taha ‘a Kalaisi pea fanau’i fo’ou, kuo hã ai ia ki ha vā fo’ou mo e ‘Otua´. ‘E tui pē ha tokotaha te’eki fakatupu fo’ou ia ‘oku ‘i ai ‘a e ‘Otua pea ko ia ‘a e tokotaha Fakatupu ‘o e māmani´, ka ‘oku ‘ikai ko ‘ene Tamai Faka-H‘vani. Ka ‘i he’ete tali ‘a Sīsū Kalaisi´, ‘oku´ te kau ai ki he fāmili ‘o e ‘Otua´, pea ko ia ‘a e me’a na’e ‘uhinga ki ai ‘a Sione ‘i he’ene ‘uhinga ki he kakai tui´ ko e “longa’i fānau”. Ko e taha ‘o e ngaahi lea na’a´ ne ngāue’aki´, ‘oku ‘uhinga ia ko e “ni’ihi kuo fanau’i” pea ko e tatau ia ‘o e fo’i lea faka-Sikotilani ko e “bairns” (‘i he Tohitapu faka-Pilitania, “born ones”). ‘I hono fanau’i ia ki he fāmili ‘o e ‘Otua´, kuo ma’u ai ‘e he Kalisitiane´ ha vā fo’ou mo e ‘Eiki´, pea na’e fakahā ai ‘e Paula ‘i he’etau hoko ko ‘ene fānau´ ‘oku tau sio hake ai ki Hēvani kiate ia ‘o pehē, “ ‘Apā Tamai” (Loma 8:15).

‘Alā si’oku kaume’a, ‘oku´ ke lau nai ‘a e Tohitapu´ ko ha fekau mei ho’o Tamai FakaHēvani´ mo fakapapau’i nai ‘oku´ ne hāngaifofonga mai ‘i he ‘ofa ‘i ho’o ako ‘a ‘ene Folofola´? Manatu, ‘oku´ ke fu’u mātu’aki mahu’inga fau kiate ia, pea ‘oku´ ne fiefia ‘i he taimi ‘oku´ ke lau ai ‘a e Tohi ‘oku´ ne lea mai ai kiate koe´. Ko e ‘ilo’i ‘o eni´ te ne ngaohi ‘a e Tohitapu´ ke fakamānako mo mahu’inga ki he’ete mo’ui´. Te ke folo’i hifo ia ‘o hangē ko ha’o fai ki ha ki’i tohi ‘ofa. Ka ki he tangata te’eki liliu´, ko e falukunga talanoa fakahisitōlia ta’eoli pē ia pea mo e ngaahi ako fekau’aki mo e ‘Otua´. Ka ki he Kalisitiane´, ko e tohi mau’anga ia ‘o e nonga, ivi mo e fiefia ‘oku ta’engata. Ko ia ai ‘oku ou toe fakamamafa’i atu ai ‘a e mahu’inga ho’o fai ha laka fakatatau mo e me’a ‘oku lea’aki atu ‘e he ‘Otua´ ‘i he’ene Folofola´ mo hono Laumālie´. Kapau ‘e ‘ikai te ke fakahā ko e angahala koe, pea ‘ikai tu’u mo ho’o falala´ ‘ia Sīsū Kalaisi, ‘e ‘ikai ke malava ke takiekina koe ki he ngaahi mo’oni lahi ‘o e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´. Ko ho’o tui´ kuopau ke tuku ia ‘ia Kalaisi, ‘o tui kuo´ ne fai ‘a e totongi huhu’i ko ho fakamo’ui’anga. Ko e momeniti ho’o falala kakato kiate ia´, ‘e foaki atu ‘e he ‘Otua´ ha mo’ui fo’ou, mo ha vā fo’ou mo ia ma’au.

II. KO HONO MU’AKI ‘ILO ‘O E MAFAI´

Ko e me’a hono ua ‘oku mātu’aki fiema’u kimu’a ‘i hono ako ‘o e Tohitapu´ ko ‘ete ma’u ha loto totonu fekau’aki mo e folofola´. Kuopau ke ke ‘unu’unu mai ki he Tohitapu´ mo e tãkunga loto, ko ia ‘a e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´. Kapau ko ha Kalisitiane fo’ou koe, ‘oua na’a´ ke toka-tauhi ha fa’ahinga tokāteline fakatangata ‘i ho’o fakakaukau´, ka kuopau ke ke kamata ako ‘a e Tohitapu´ mo e tui ‘oku lea mai ai ‘a e ‘Otua´. Kuopau ke ke mateuteu ke tui ki hono fekau´ pea loto-lelei ke fakatonutonu ho’o mo’ui´ ‘aki ho’o talangofua ki he’ene ngaahi ako´.

A. Tali Lelei

Mahalo pē te ke ofo ‘i he ni’ihi ‘o e ngaahi me’a te ke lau ‘i ho’o Tohitapu´, pea ‘e ‘i ai ha ngaahi talanoa ‘oku faingata’a ke fai ha tui ki ai, pe ko ‘ene ngaahi ako´ ‘oku fepaki mo e ngaahi me’a na’e ‘uluaki nofo ‘i ho’o fakakaukau´. ‘Oua na’a´ ke faka’atā ki he ngaahi me’a´ ni ke hoko ai ha’o loto-hoha’a, ka ke hoko atu ho’o tuiaki ke ke mahino’i ‘a e fekau fakalaumālie ‘o e Tohitapu´. ‘I he hãfia ‘e he veiveiua´ ho’o fakakaukau´, ‘oua na’a tuku ho’o ako ‘a e Tohitapu´. ‘Oua na’a´ ke fakamoleki ho ivi´ ‘i ha’o feinga ke solova ‘a e ngaahi palōpalema te ke fetaulaki mo ia´. ‘Oua na’a´ ke fakakaukau pe tui ki ha fa’ahinga fakakaukau ‘i ho’o hoko ko e Kalisitiane fo’ou´ ‘oku ‘ikai ke toe lea atu ‘a e Tohitapu´ ki ho loto´. Na’e valoki’i ‘e Paula ‘akinautolu na’a nau fakamole taimi ‘i he fakafekiki ‘i he ngaahi me’a fakapuputu’u.

“Ka ke tekeʻi ʻae ngaahi fehuʻi launoa, mo e tala hohoko, mo e fakakikihi, mo e ngaahi fekeʻikeʻi ʻi he fono; he ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ia mo vaʻinga.”

Kapau te ke ‘unu’unu mai mo e loto fakatōkilalo ki he Tohitapu´, te ke tali loto-lelei ‘a ia ‘oku´ ne lea’aki´ neongo ‘oku ‘ikai ke ke mahino’i kakato ia. Manatu, ko ho’o ‘ikai lava ke ke ma’u ‘a e tali ki ha palōpalema te ke fekuki mo ia, ‘oku ‘ikai ‘uhinga ia ‘oku ‘ikai ha tali ki ai. Manatu’i ‘i he fononga’anga ‘o e mo’ui´, ‘oku anga maheni hono ngāue’aki ‘e he kakai´ ‘a e me’a ‘oku ‘ikai ke nau mahino’i (pe taukei ki ai) kakato. ‘I he tupulaki ho’o ‘ilo‘i ‘a e folofola´ ko e ni’ihi ‘o e ngaahi me’a na’e ‘ikai te ke ‘ilo´, kuo mahino ia. ‘Ikai ngata ai´, ‘i he tupulaki ho’o ‘ilo’i ‘a Kalaisi´, ‘e ‘ikai te ke toe tokanga koe ki he fanga ki’i ta’emahino ikiiki ‘i he Tohitapu´. Ko ho’o feohi mo e ‘Eiki ko Sīsu´, te ne ‘oatu ‘a e nonga, mālohi mo e loto-ma’u ke tui ko e ngaahi me’a ‘oku lea’aki ‘e he ‘Otua´ ‘oku mo’oni, neongo ‘a e ‘ikai ke ke malava ke makupusi´. Tali lelei pē ‘i he tui ‘a e ngaahi me’a ‘oku ‘ikai ke ke mahino’i´, pea hokohoko atu pē ho’o kai mei he Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´.

Fakatokanga’i lelei eni: ‘Oua na’a´ ke tuku ha taimi ki ha taha ‘oku pehē ko e faiako Tohitapu ke ne taki ko e ke ke mama’o mei ho’o ako faka’utumauku (pe faka’aho) ‘i he lilo ‘a e Tohitapu´, ki ha pōtatala ki he mahina faka-Siu´, pe ko e tukufakaholo, pe ko ha to e tafa’aki te ne maumau’i ‘o ‘ikai tokoni ki ho’o lelei fakalaumālie´. ‘Oku mahu’inga ange ke fafanga ho laumālie´ pea mo e mo’ui fo’ou ‘oku´ ke ma’u´, ‘i ha’o feinga ke fakalato ho ‘atamai fa’afifili´. ‘Oku sai’ia ‘a S‘tane ke sio ki he kakai´ ‘oku nau fakamamafa ki he ngaahi me’a ‘oku ‘ikai mahu’inga´ mo mamio holo ‘i ha ngaahi fakamatala ‘oku ‘ikai teitei ‘aonga ki he ‘a’eva vāofi mo e ‘Eiki´. Ko hono ako totonu ‘o e Folofola´ te ne takiekina koe ke ke ‘ofa ki he ‘Eiki ko Sīsu´ ‘o lahi ange, pea ‘ongo’i hono lotolotonga´ ‘i ha founga ‘oku toe mo’oni ange, pea ke ke faka’au ‘o hangē pē ko ia´ ‘i ho’o feohi mo e kakai´. ‘O ‘ikai toe mole ‘a e mo’oni ko ia ko e Tohitapu´ ‘a e fekau ‘a e ‘Otua´ ke fakaai ho’o fiema’u fakalaumālie´.

B. Talangofua

Ko e taha ‘o e me’a ‘oku mu’aki fiema’u kae malava ‘a ‘ete ako ‘a e Tohitapu´ ‘o mahu’inga mālie mo liliu mo’ui, ko e talangofua. Kuopau ke ke loto’aki ke talangofua ki he’ene ngaahi tu’utu’uni´ mo e valoki´. Kuopau ke ke ma’u ha loto mo’oni ke fai talangofua ki he’ene fekau´. Ko ho loto´, fakakaukau´ mo ho ongo´, kuopau ke nau kau fakataha ‘i he ako Tohitapu´. Na’a mo Kalaisi tonu na’a´ ne pehē, kuopau ke te loto’aki hono fai ‘o e finangalo ‘o e ‘Otua´ ke te toki ma’u ai ‘a e loto tui pau mo’oni fakalaumālie.

“Kapau ‘e fai ‘e ha taha hono finangalo´, te ne ‘ilo ai ‘a ‘eku akonaki´, pe ‘oku ‘o e ‘Otua´ ia, pe ko ‘eku lea ‘iate au pē” (Sione 7:17)

‘Oku hoko mo’oni eni ki he tokotaha kotoa pē ‘oku fetu’utaki mo e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´. Ka ko e tokotaha te’eki fanau’i fo’ou´, kuopau ke ne tali lelei ‘a e tu’utu’uni ki hono tãkunga mole´, pea kuopau ke ne tali ‘i he tui ‘a Sīsū Kalaisi. Hili ‘ene hoko ko e tokotaha tui´, kuopau ke ne hokohoko ‘ene fai ha laka ki he mo’oni ‘o e Tohitapu´ ‘i he tui pea mo e ‘ofa. Ko ‘ene talangofua ko ia´ te ne mateuteu ai ki ha fakamaama lahi ange, pea te ne tupu ‘i he kelesi mo e nāunau ‘o e ‘Otua´, pea a’usia mo e mālohi liliu mo’ui ‘o e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua´.

‘E hoku kaungāme’a Kalisitiane, ‘oku faka’amu ‘a e ‘Otua´ ke ke ma’u ‘a e mālohi mo e fakanonga ‘o e Folofola´. ‘Oua na’a´ ke meheka ki he ni’ihi ‘oku e’a mai ai ‘a e huelo ‘o e fiefia ‘a e ‘Eiki´ pea nau mo’ui ikuna´, ‘o ke fakakaukau kuo nau ma’u ha me’a mei he ‘Otua´ ka he’ikai te ke ala ma’u ia ‘e koe. ‘Oku ‘ikai ke filifilimānako ‘a e ‘Otua´. ‘I ho’o falala kia Kalaisi´, kuo´ ne fa’oaki ai ‘i ho loto´ ha mo’ui fo’ou mo fakakau koe ki hono fāmili´ mo ngaohi ko e ke hangē ko hono ‘Alo´. Lau ‘a e Tohitapu´ ke fafanga ho laumālie´, ‘o tui ‘i he loto ma’ulalo ki he ngaahi me’a ‘oku ‘ikai ke ke mahino’i´ ‘i he ‘ofa ki he ‘Eiki ko Sīsu´, pea talangofua ki he’ene ngaahi fekau´, pea ‘e hoko mai kiate koe ‘a e ngaahi enginaki. Na’e pehē ‘e Sīsū, “Kapau ‘oku´ ke ‘ofa ‘iate au, pea fai ‘eku ngaahi fekau´” (Sione 14:15). Manatu, ko e taumu’a ‘o e ako Tohitapu´ ‘oku ‘ikai ke langa ha tauhi’anga ‘ilo koe’uhi´ ke ke mākape hake ai ki he tu’unga ko e faiako ‘i ho siasi´. Ko e fakalahi ho mahino´ kuopau ke hoko mai ia, pea ‘e malava pē ke ngāue’aki koe ‘e he ‘Eiki´ ke fakahinohino ha ni’ihi; ka ‘oku totonu ke mu’omu’a taha pē ho’o hoholi ke tatau mo Sīsū Kalaisi. Kapau te ke fakaofi atu ki he Tohitapu´ mo e loto ma’ulalo ‘i he tui, ‘o fai talangofua ki hono ngaahi tu’utu’uni´, te ke tutupu ai ‘i he kelesi mo e ‘ilo’i ‘o e ‘Eiki ko Sīsu´. Ko e ngaahi angahala ‘o e kakano´ mo e ngaahi ‘ahi’ahi ‘o e māmani´ ‘e mole atu hona mālohi´ ‘i ho’o mo’ui´, pea ko e tatau ‘o Sīsu´ ‘e huelo atu meiate koe ki he kakai kehe´.

Kapau ‘oku te’eki ai ke ke tali ‘a Sīsū Kalaisi, tuku ke u fakapapau atu kia koe ‘oku malava ke ke ‘ilo’i ‘a e ‘Otua´, pea ‘oku malava pē ke ke a’usia ‘a e mo’oni ‘o ‘ene fakamo’ui´. Ka kuopau ke ke kamata mei he hala totonu´. Tala ki he ‘Eiki´, ‘oku´ ke fakahā ko e angahala koe, pea ‘oku´ ke tui na’e pekia ‘a Sīsū Kalaisi ki ho’o ngaahi angahala´. Kole kiate ia ke ne fakamo’ui koe. Kapau te ke tukulolo ‘o fai eni, kuo fakamolemole’i ai koe ‘e he ‘Eiki´ mei ho ngaahi angahala´ mo fakatupu ha mo’ui fo’ou ‘iate koe. Pea ‘e toki hoko ‘a e Tohitapu´ ko e tohi mahu’inga mālie kiate koe, pea ‘e malava ke ke a’usia hono ivi liliu mo’ui ‘i ho’o mo’ui faka’aho´. Ko ia ai ‘oku ou na’ina’i ai kiate koe ke ke fai ‘a e ‘uluaki laka´. Tui ki he ‘Eiki ko Sīsū Kalaisi´, pea te ke mo’ui.

FOUNGA KE MA’U TOKONI

Kapau te ke siosio holo ‘oku kei ‘i ai pē ‘a e ngaahi siasi ‘iloa talu mei mu’a, ka kuo ‘i ai mo e ngaahi siasi fakamovetevete fo’ou lahi mo e ngaahi tui fakahala foki. Pea mahalo pē ko ho’o toki hoko pē ko ha Kalisitiane ‘i ha ki’i pepa (tuleki) na’a´ ke lau, pe ko ha taha na’e fakamo’oni atu kiate koe, pe ko ho’o fanongo ‘i ha malanga fakaletiō pe televīsone. ‘Oku ke ‘ilo, ‘oku totonu ke ke ako ‘iate koe pē ‘a e Tohitapu´, pea mahalo kuo´ ke ‘osi feinga, ka ‘oku ke fiema’u ha tokoni. Ko hai te ke hanga ki ai? Ko e siasi fē te ke ‘alu (pe kau) ki ai? Ko e fē ‘a e ngaahi tohi ‘oku totonu ke ke lau?

‘I he lesoni ko eni´ te mau fakahā atu ai kiate koe ‘a e founga ke tokoni atu ‘i ho’o ako ‘a e Tohitapu´. Ko e ‘uluaki me’a´, kuopau ke ke fakafalala ‘i he Laumālie Ma’oni’oni. Ko hono ua, kuopau ke ke faka’atā koe ki he ngāue ‘a e kakai kuo me’a’ofa ‘aki kiate kinautolu ‘e he ‘Otua ‘a hono faiako’i ‘o ‘Ene folofola, pea te mau tala atu kiate koe ‘e anga fēfē hono fakafaikehekehe’i ‘o e kau faiako mo’oni mo e kau faiako fakahala.

6 ¶ Ko ia naʻe tokoto ai ʻa ʻAmanoni, ʻo ne pehē kuo ne mahaki: pea ʻi heʻene haʻu ʻae tuʻi ke mamata kiate ia, naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni ki he tuʻi, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke haʻu ʻa Tamaa ko hoku tuofefine, ke ne ngaohi ha foʻi mā ʻe ua ʻi hoku ʻao, koeʻuhi ke u kai ia mei hono nima.” 7 Pea naʻe fekau ai ʻe Tevita ki he fale ʻo Tamaa, ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu leva ni ki he fale ʻo ʻAmanoni ko ho tuongaʻane, pea teuteu haʻane meʻakai.” 8 Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Tamaa ki he fale ʻo ʻAmanoni ko hono tuongaʻane; ka kuo tokoto hifo ia. Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae mahoaʻa, pea ne natu ia, pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā ʻi hono ʻao, pea naʻa ne taʻo ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā. 9 Pea naʻa ne toʻo mai ha ipu ʻo ne lilingi ia ʻi hono ʻao: ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ke kai.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAmanoni kiate ia, “Tuʻu hake, pea ke ʻalu.” 16 Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ʻikai hano ʻuhinga: ʻoku lahi hake ʻae kovi ni ʻo hoʻo fekauʻi au ke ʻalu, ʻi he meʻa ʻe taha kuo ke fai kiate au. Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito fanongo ia kiate ia.” 17 Pea naʻa ne toki ui ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻaia naʻe talifekau kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Kapusi atu leva ʻa e fefine ni meiate au, pea songo ʻae matapā kiate ia.” 18 Pea naʻe fakakofuʻaki ia ʻae kofu pulepule: he ko e anga ia ʻoe kofu naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe tuʻi ʻaia naʻe tāupoʻou. Pea hili ia naʻe ʻomi ia kituʻa ʻe heʻene tamaioʻeiki, pea ne songo ʻae matapā kiate ia.

Ka ko eni ʻa hoku tuofefine ke ke longo pe; he ko ho tuongaʻane ia; ʻoua naʻa ke tokanga ki he meʻa ni.” Ko ia naʻe nofo mamahi pe ʻa Tamaa ʻi he fale ʻo hono tuongaʻane ko ʻApisalomi.

23 ¶ Pea hili ʻae taʻu kātoa ʻe ua naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe maʻu ʻe ʻApisalomi ʻae kau tangata kosi sipi ʻi Peali-Hasoa, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki ʻIfalemi; pea naʻe talaki ki ai ʻae ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi. 24 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻApisalomi ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai eni, kuo ʻi hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻae kau tangata kosi sipi; ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke meʻa ʻae tuʻi pea mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ke ʻalu mo ho tamaioʻeiki.” 25 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kia ʻApisalomi, “ʻE ʻikai, hoku foha, ʻoua naʻa tau ʻalu eni kotoa pē, telia naʻa mau fakamāfasia kiate koe.” Pea naʻa ne kole mālohi kiate ia; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻalu mo ia, ka naʻa ne tāpuakiʻi ia. 26 Pea naʻe toki pehē ai ʻe ʻApisalomi, “Ka kuo ʻikai, pea ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke ʻalu ʻa ʻAmanoni mo kimautolu.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Ko e hā ka ʻalu ai ia mo koe?” 27 Ka naʻe kole fakamātoato ʻe ʻApisalomi, ke ne tuku ʻa ʻAmanoni pea mo e ngaahi foha kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi ke ʻalu mo ia.

Pea ʻoku ne kei kuku maʻu pe ʻene angatonu, ka naʻa ke ueʻi au ki ai, ke fakaʻauha ia taʻehanoʻuhinga.” 4 Pea naʻe tali ʻe Sētane kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Ko e kili maʻa e kili, ʻio, ʻe foaki ʻe he tangata ʻene meʻa kotoa pē ke ne moʻui ai. 5 Kae mafao atu eni ho nima, ʻo ala ki hono hui mo hono kakano, pea te ne lauʻikoviʻi koe ʻi ho fofonga.” 6 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sētane, “Vakai, ʻoku ʻi ho nima ia; ka ko ʻene moʻui pe ʻe tapu.”
