Naʻe fetaulaki ai mo ha ongomeʻa naʻá na fakafofongaʻi e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻo e Kau Māʻoniʻoni ʻi he Ngaahi ʻAho Kimui Ní peá ne fehuʻi ange, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou fie maʻu mei homou kāingalotú?”
Naʻá na talaange, “ʻOku ʻikai ke mau fie maʻu ha meʻa. Ka ʻoku kole mai e ʻEikí ke mau fakatapui e meʻa kotoa.”
Ne hoko atu e ongomeʻá ʻo fakamatala ki he ngaahi uiuiʻi faka-Siasí, faiako fakaʻapí mo e faiako ʻaʻahí, ngāue fakafaifekau taimi kakató, efiafi fakafāmili fakauike ʻi ʻapí, ngāue fakatemipalé, uelofeá mo e tokoni ʻofa fakaetangatá, mo e fatongia ke faiakó.

Ne fakamatala ange ʻe he ongomātuʻá, “ʻIkai, ʻaupito. ʻOku foaki taʻe-totongi pē honau taimí.”
Naʻá na toe pehē, “ʻIkai ngata aí, ʻi he māhina ʻe ono kotoa pē, ʻoku fakamoleki ai ʻe he kāingalotu homau Siasí ha fakaʻosinga ʻo e uike ʻe taha ke ō pe mamata ʻi he konifelenisi lahí ʻi ha houa ʻe 10.”
Ne fifili e tangatá, “Houa ʻe hongofulu e malanga ʻa e kakaí?”
“Kae fēfē hoʻomou ngaahi houalotu fakauiké? Ko e hā honau lōloá?”
“Houa ʻe tolu, he Sāpate kotoa!”

Koeʻuhí ʻoku ʻikai haʻamau kau faifekau totongi ʻi homau ngaahi faiʻangalotu he funga ʻo e māmaní, ʻoku fakahoko leva ʻe homau kāingalotu e ngāué ʻe kinautolu pē. ʻOku ui kinautolu ʻi he ueʻi fakalaumālie. ʻOku mau pole he taimi ʻe niʻihi; pea taimi ʻe niʻihi ʻoku “fokotuʻu” kimautolu ki ai. ʻOku ʻikai ke mau lau ʻa e ngaahi ngāue ke faí ko ha kavenga ka ko e faingamālie ke fakahoko e ngaahi fuakava ne mau fakahoko fiefia ke tokoni ki he ʻOtuá mo ʻEne fānaú.

ʻOku mau lau e papitaisó ko ha kamataʻanga ʻi heʻemau fononga fakaākongá. ʻOku fakaiku ʻemau fononga fakaʻaho mo Sīsū Kalaisí ki ha nonga mo ha taumuʻa ʻi he māmaní pea mo ha fiefia lahi mo e fakamoʻui taʻengata ʻi he maama kahaʻú.

ʻOku tau fakamahalo he taimi ʻe niʻihi koeʻuhí he ne nau mamahi pe fakapikopiko pe faiangahala. Ka, ʻoku ʻikai faingofua pehē. Ko hono moʻoní, ʻoku ʻikai taha pē ʻuhinga ki he ngaahi tūkunga kehekehe ko ʻení.

Ka ko hono moʻoní, kuo ʻi ai ha ngaahi taimi kuo fakahoko ai ʻe he kāingalotú pe kau taki ʻi he Siasí ha ngaahi fehalaaki. Mahalo pē ne ʻi ai ha ngaahi meʻa ne lea ʻaki pe fai ʻoku ʻikai fenāpasi mo homau tuʻunga ʻulungāngá, tefitoʻi moʻoní mo e tokāteliné.
Te u pehē ʻe toki haohaoa pē Siasí kapau naʻe fakalele ʻe ha kakai ʻoku haohaoa. ʻOku haoahoa e ʻOtuá, pea ʻoku haohaoa ʻEne tokāteliné. Ka ʻoku fakahoko ngāue ʻiate kitautolu—ko ʻEne fānau taʻe-haohaoa—pea ʻoku fehalaaki e kakai taʻe-haohaoá.
ʻOku tau lau ʻi he peesi talamuʻaki ʻo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná, “Pea ko ʻeni, kapau ʻoku ʻi ai ha ngaahi meʻa hala, ko e ngaahi fehalaaki ia ʻa e tangata; ko ia, ʻoua naʻa fakaangaʻi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻa e ʻOtuá, koeʻuhí ke lau ʻa kimoutolu ʻoku mou taʻe-ha-mele ʻi he fakamaauʻanga ʻa Kalaisí.”6
Naʻe anga peheni maʻu ai pē pea ʻe pehē ai pē kae ʻoua kuo hoko ʻa e ʻaho haoahoa ʻe pule tonu ai ʻa Kalaisi he funga ʻo māmaní.
