Fakafoki Fakaʻaho

ʻOku tau fiemaʻu fakaʻaho maʻu pē ʻa e maama fakalangí. ʻOku tau fiemaʻu ha “taimi ʻo e fakafoʻou.” Taimi ʻo e fakafoki fakafoʻituituí.

ʻOku tau ualolo he pongipongi Sāpate fakaʻofoʻofá ni ke lea kau kia Kalaisi, fiefia ʻi Heʻene ongoongoleleí, pea fetokoniʻaki mo fepoupouaki ʻi heʻetau fononga ʻi he “hala” ʻa hotau Fakamoʻuí.1

ʻI hotau tuʻunga ko e kāingalotu ʻo e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻo e Kau Māʻoniʻoni ʻi he Ngaahi ʻAho Kimui Ní, ʻoku tau fakataha ai he ʻaho Sāpate kotoa ʻi he taumuʻá ni ʻi he taʻú kakato. Kapau ʻoku ʻikai ko ha mēmipa koe ʻo e Siasí, ʻoku mau talitali fiefia lahi koe mo fakamālō atu ʻi heʻetau kau fakataha ke lotu ki he Fakamoʻuí mo ako kiate Iá. ʻOku mau feinga pē hangē ko kimoutolú—neongo ʻoku ʻikai haohaoa—ke hoko ko ha ngaahi kaungāmeʻa, kaungāʻapi mo ha kakai lelei ange,2 pea ʻoku mau feinga ke fai ʻeni ʻaki ʻemau muimui ki hotau Faʻifaʻitakiʻanga, ko Sīsū Kalaisí.

Ko e Fakamoʻui ko Sīsū Kalaisí

ʻOku mau fakatauange te mou ongoʻi e fakamātoato ʻo ʻemau fakamoʻoní. ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi! Ko e ʻAlo Ia ʻo e ʻOtua moʻuí, pea ʻokú Ne tataki ʻa e kau palōfita ʻi he māmaní ʻi hotau kuongá. ʻOku mau fakaafeʻi ʻa e taha kotoa ke mou omi, fanongo ki he folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá, mo maʻu ʻEne ngaahi leleí! ʻOku ou fakahoko atu ʻeku fakamoʻoni fakafoʻituitui ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu ʻa e ʻOtuá pea te Ne ʻunu moʻoni ʻo ofi ki he taha kotoa ʻoku ʻunuʻunu mai kiate Iá.3

ʻOku mau lau ko ha lāngilangi ke fononga fakataha mo kimoutolu ʻi he hala lausiʻi mo fāsiʻi fakaeākonga ʻo e ʻEikí.

Ko e Founga ʻo e Fononga ʻi he Laine Hangatonú

ʻOku ʻi ai ha fakakaukau ʻoku faʻa takua ko e kakai ʻoku heé ʻoku lue takai ʻi ha fuopotopoto. Ne ʻikai fuoloa mei heni, hano ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻe he kau saienisi ʻi he Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernnetics, e foʻi fakakaukau ko iá. Naʻa nau ʻave ha kakai ki ha vaotā fihi pea ʻoange kiate kinautolu ha ngaahi fakahinohino mahino: “Lue hangatonu.” Naʻe ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha fakaʻilonga ia he feituʻú. Ko e taumuʻa ʻo e siví ke nau falala ʻataʻatā pē ki heʻenau ongoʻi e feituʻu ke ō ki aí.

ʻOku mou pehē naʻe fēfē ʻenau feingá?

Naʻe fakaʻosi ʻaki ʻe he kau saienisí, “ʻOku fononga takatakai moʻoni ʻa e kakaí ʻi he taimi ʻoku ʻikai ke nau maʻu ai ha ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻo e feituʻu ke nau fononga ki aí.”4 Ko e taimi naʻe fakaʻekeʻeke ai ʻi heʻene ʻosí, naʻe loto-falala ha niʻihi ʻo pehē naʻe ʻikai ke nau teitei hē. Neongo ʻenau loto-falalá, ka naʻe tala ʻe he fakamatala ʻi he GPS naʻa nau fononga fuopotopoto ʻo meimei taiamita ʻe 20.

Ko e hā ʻoku faingataʻa ai ke tau fononga ʻi ha laine hangatonú? ʻOku fakafuofua ha kau fakatotolo ko e fanga kiʻi fakahehema iiki ʻoku ʻikai fuʻu mahuʻinga ʻi he fonua tokaleleí, ko e faikehekehé ia. Ne ʻi ai ha niʻihi ne nau fakamahinoʻi e foʻi moʻoni ko kitautolú kotoa, ʻoku kiʻi mālohi ange hotau vaʻe ʻe taha ʻi he vaʻe ʻe tahá. Neongo ia, “ʻoku ngalingali” ʻoku tau feinga ke fononga hangatonu “[koeʻuhí] ko e fakautuutu e taʻepau pe ko e fē ʻa e hangatonu ki muʻá.” 5

Neongo pe ko e hā e tupuʻangá, ko e natula fakaetangata pē ia: ka ʻikai ha ʻū fakaʻilonga pau, ʻoku tau hē leva mei he halá.

Ko e Hē mei he Halá

‘Ikai ‘oku mālie ʻa e founga ʻo e lava ʻe he ngaahi meʻa iiki mo ngali taʻeʻaongá ʻo fakahoko ha kehekehe lahi ʻi heʻetau moʻuí?

ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻeni mei haʻaku aʻusia tonu ʻi heʻeku hoko ko ha pailaté.

Mahalo te ke foua ha meʻa tatau ʻi haʻo fakaʻuli ʻi ha meʻalele. ʻE lava kotoa e havilí, tokakovi ʻo e halá, ʻikai tonu ʻa e vaʻé, taʻetokangá—ʻikai lau ki ai e meʻa ʻoku fai ʻe he kau fakaʻuli kehé—ʻo afeʻi koe mei he hala naʻá ke taumuʻa ki aí. ʻE lava ha taʻetokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa mahuʻinga ko ʻení ʻo fakaiku ki ha ʻaho fakamamahi.6

Kā ʻi he loto vaí

ʻOku kaunga fakatuʻasino ʻeni kiate kitautolu.

ʻOku toe kaunga fakalaumālie foki ʻeni kiate kitautolu.

Ko e lahi taha e ngaahi liliu ʻi heʻetau moʻui fakalaumālié—ki he leleí pe koví fakatouʻosi—ʻoku hoko māmālie, taha taha ia. Mahalo he ʻikai ke tau fakatokangaʻi ʻa e taimi ʻoku tau aafe ai mei he halá, ʻo hangē ko kinautolu ne kau ʻi he fakatotolo Max Planck. Te tau lava pē ke loto lahi ʻoku tau fononga ʻi ha hala hangatonu. Ka ko hono moʻoní, ka ʻikai tokoni ha ngaahi fakaʻilonga ke fakahinohino kitautolu, te tau iku aafe moʻoni mei he halá ʻo fakaiku ki ha feituʻu naʻe ʻikai ke tau teitei fakakaukau ki ai.

ʻOku hoko ʻeni ki he fakafoʻituituí. ʻOku toe hoko pē ki he ngaahi sosaietí mo e ngaahi puleʻangá. ʻOku fonu e folofolá ʻi hono ngaahi sīpinga.

ʻOku pehē ʻi he tohi ʻa e Kau Fakamāú naʻe hili e pekia ʻa Sosiuá, “naʻe tupu hake ha toʻu tangata … naʻe ʻikai ke nau ʻiloʻi ʻa [e ʻEikí], pe ko e ngaahi ngāue foki naʻe fai ʻe ia maʻa ʻIsilelí.”7

Neongo e ngaahi tokoni, ngaahi ʻaʻahi, ngaahi fakahaofi fakalangi, pea mo e ngaahi ikuna fakaofo ne siotonu ai e fānau ʻo ʻIsilelí he lolotonga e moʻui ʻa Mōsese mo Sosiuá, ka naʻe siʻaki ʻe he kakaí ʻi he toʻu tangata pē taha, ʻa e Halá, ka nau kamata ke fononga ʻo fakatatau mo ʻenau ngaahi fiemaʻú. Pea, ko e moʻoni, naʻe ʻikai fuoloa kuo nau maʻu ʻa e nunuʻa ki he angafai ko iá.

Taimi ʻe niʻihi ʻoku laui toʻu tangata ʻa e hē ko ʻení. Taimi ʻe niʻihi, ʻoku laui-taʻu pē pe lau-māhina.8 Ka ʻoku tau uesia ngofua kotoa. Neongo pe ko e hā hono mālohi ʻetau ngaahi taukei fakalaumālie ʻi he kuo hilí, ʻi hotau tuʻunga ko e tangatá, ʻoku tau fakahehema ke hē fano. Ko e sīpinga ia talu mei he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻĀtamá ʻo aʻu ki he ʻahó ni.

ʻOku ʻikai mole ai ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē. ʻOku tau maʻu ha ngaahi fakaʻilonga falalaʻanga mahino ʻe lava ke tau fakaʻaongaʻi ke fakafuofuaʻi hotau halá.

Ko e hā leva ʻa e ngaahi fakaʻilonga ko ʻení?

ʻOku kau moʻoni ai ʻa e lotu fakaʻahó mo e fakalaulauloto ki he folofolá mo e fakaʻaongaʻi ʻo e ngaahi meʻangāue fakalaumālié hangē ko e Haʻu, ʻo Muimui ʻIate Aú. Te tau lava, ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ke omi ki he taloni ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he loto fakatōkilalo mo e angatonu. Te tau lava ʻo fakakaukauʻi ʻetau ngaahi angafaí pea mo toe fakakaukauʻi e ngaahi mōmeniti ʻo ʻetau moʻuí—ʻa hotau lotó mo ʻetau ngaahi holi fekauʻaki mo Hono finangaló. Kapau kuo tau hē, ʻoku tau tautapa ki he ʻOtuá ke fakafoki kitautolu, pea tau tukupā ke toe lelei ange.

ʻOku tataki ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻa ʻEne fanga sipí

Ko e taimi ʻo e vakavakaiʻi ko ʻení ko ha faingamālie ia ke toe fakatonutonu ai. Ko ha feituʻu ia ʻo e fakakaukau te tau lava ʻo ʻaʻeva ai mo e ʻEikí pea fakahinohinoʻi, langaki, mo fakahaohaoaʻi ʻe he folofola ʻa ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní kuo tohi mo fakahā Fakalaumālié. Ko ha taimi toputapu ia ʻoku tau manatuʻi ai ʻetau ngaahi fuakava molumalu ke muimui ʻia Kalaisí, ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau vakaiʻi ai ʻetau fakalakalaka mo ʻetau fakatonutonu ki he ngaahi fakaʻilonga fakalaumālie kuo foaki ʻe he ʻOtuá maʻa ʻEne fānaú.

Ka ʻe lava ʻe he ngaahi fakahehema īkí ke ne tohoakiʻi kitautolu mei he Hala ʻo e Fakamoʻuí, ʻe pehē pē ha lava ʻe he fanga kiʻi ngāue faingofua ʻo e fakatonutonú ke taki fakafoki kitautolú. Ko e taimi ʻoku hū māmālie mai ai e fakapoʻulí ki heʻetau moʻuí, hangē ko ʻene faʻa hokó, ʻoku fakaava leva hotau lotó ki he maama fakalangí, ʻa ia ʻokú ne hulungia ʻetau moʻuí, kapusi e fakapoʻulí, ilifiá, mo e veiveiuá.

Ngaahi Foheʻuli Iiki, Ngaahi Vaka Lalahi

Kapau te tau fekumi moʻoni ki ai, “ʻE foaki kiate kitautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e ʻiló ʻi hono Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, ʻio, ʻi he meʻafoaki taʻe-mafakamatalaʻi ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní.”9 Fakatatau mo e lahi ʻo ʻetau kolé, te Ne akoʻi mai ʻa e Halá mo tokoni ke tau muimui ai.

Ko e meʻá ni foki, ʻe fie maʻu ai ke tau feinga mālohi maʻu pē. He ʻikai ke tau fakafiefiemālie pē ʻi he ngaahi aʻusia fakalaumālie ʻo e kuo hilí. ʻOku tau fie maʻu ke hoko maʻu pē ia.

He ʻikai ke tau lava ʻo fakafalala maʻu pē ki he fakamoʻoni ʻa e niʻihi kehé. ʻOku fie maʻu ke ʻi ai haʻatau aʻusia ʻatautolu pē.

ʻOku tau fiemaʻu fakaʻaho maʻu pē ʻa e maama fakalangí.

ʻOku tau fiemaʻu ha “taimi ʻo e fakafoʻou.”10 Taimi ʻo e fakafoki fakafoʻituituí.

Ko hono moʻoní, ko e fakafoki ʻo e ongoongoleleí mo e Siasí, ʻoku ʻikai ko ha faʻahinga meʻa ʻoku hoko tuʻo taha pē pea ʻosi. Ko ha ngāue taʻetuku ia—fakafoʻi ʻaho, ʻi he loto takitaha.

ʻOku fakapapauʻi ʻe he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku tau fakahoko fakaʻahó ʻa e anga ʻetau moʻuí. ʻOku fakamatalaʻi peheni ia ʻe ha taha faʻu tohi: “ʻOku hangē e ʻaho ʻe tahá ko ha moʻui kakató. ʻOkú ke kamata hano fai ha meʻa, kae fakaʻosi ki ha meʻa kehe, palani ke fai ha kiʻi ngāue siʻisiʻi, kae ʻikai ke lava ia. … Pea ʻi he ngataʻanga hoʻo moʻuí, ʻoku maʻu foki ai ʻa e tuʻunga taʻemaau tatau.

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Sīsū, “Ko au ko e halá, mo e moʻoní, pea mo e moʻuí” (Sione 14:6). ʻOku ʻi he NIV First-Century Study Bible ʻa e fakamatala ko ʻení: “Ko ha ʻīmisi ʻo ha hala pe ʻalunga ʻi he Tohi Tapu Faka-Hepeluú ʻoku faʻa ʻuhinga ia ki hono tauhi e ngaahi fekau pe ngaahi akonaki ʻa e ʻOtuá [vakai, Saame 1:1; 16:11; 86:11].
