Naʻe kamata pē ʻEne teuteú ʻi he maama fakalaumālié ʻi Heʻene tali ki he Tamaí ʻo pehē, “Ke fai pē ʻa ho finangaló, peá ke ʻoʻou ʻa e lāngilangí ʻo taʻengata.”1 Naʻe kamata pē he taimi ko iá pea hokohoko mai he ʻahó ni, ʻEne fakaʻaongaʻi ʻEne tauʻatāina ke filí ke tali mo fakahoko e palani ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní. ʻOku akoʻi mai kiate kitautolu ʻe he folofolá naʻá Ne feʻaluʻaki holo Heʻene kei talavoú “ke fai e ngāue ʻa [ʻEne] Tamaí”2 mo “tatali ki he ʻEikí ki he taimi ʻe kamata ai ʻene ngāué.”3 ʻI hono taʻu 30, naʻá Ne fepaki mo ha ʻahiʻahi faingataʻa ka naʻá Ne fili ke fakafepakiʻi ia ʻaki ʻEne pehē, “Sētane, ke ke ʻalu ki hoku tuʻá.”4 Naʻá Ne falala ki Heʻene Tamaí ʻi Ketisemani ʻo Ne pehē, “Kae ʻoua naʻa fai hoku loto, ka ko e finangalo ʻoʻoú,”5 pea fakaʻaongaʻi leva ʻEne tauʻatāina ke filí ke mamahiʻia koeʻuhi ko ʻetau ngaahi angahalá. Naʻá Ne fou atu ʻi he hopo fakamā he kakaí pea mo e mamahi ʻo e tutukí, ka naʻá Ne fakaongo pē ki Heʻene Tamaí, ʻo loto ke “lavea koeʻuhi ko ʻetau ngaahi angahalá [mo] fakavolu koeʻuhi ko ʻetau ngaahi hiá.”6 Pea aʻu ai pē ki he taimi naʻá ne kalanga ai, “Ko hoku ʻOtua, ko hoku ʻOtua, ko e hā kuó ke liʻaki ai aú?”7 Naʻá Ne tatali ki Heʻene Tamaí—ʻo ngāue ʻaki ʻEne tauʻatāina ke filí ke fakamolemoleʻi Hono ngaahi filí,8 fakapapauʻi ʻe tokangaʻi ʻEne faʻeé,9 pea kātaki ki he ngataʻangá kae ʻoua kuo kakato ʻa ʻEne moʻuí mo ʻEne misiona he moʻui matelié.10
