ʻOku tataki ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e fāmili ʻo Līhaí fakafou he Liahoná

The Book of Mormon prophet Lehi portrayed kneeling on the ground. Lehi is holding the Liahona in his hands. Nephi is standing behind Lehi and is also looking at the Liahona. Other members of the family of Lehi are gathered around Lehi and Nephi.

Kulupu 1: Ko Ha Tāpuaki Faka-Pēteliake

Lau ki he kulupú ʻa e lea ko ʻeni ʻa Palesiteni Tōmasi S. Monisoní:

“Ko e ʻOtua tatau pē naʻá Ne ʻoange ha Liahona kia Līhaí ko Ia pē ʻokú Ne ʻomi ʻa e meʻaʻofa makehe mo mahuʻinga kiate kitautolu he ʻaho ní ke tataki ʻaki ʻetau moʻuí, ke fakaʻilongaʻi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa fakatuʻutāmakí ke tau hao mei ai, mo palani ʻa e halá, ʻa e hala ʻoku malú—ʻo ʻikai ki ha fonua ʻo e talaʻofá, ka ki hotau ʻapi fakalangí. Ko e meʻaʻofa ʻoku ou ʻuhinga ki aí ʻoku ʻiloa ia ko ho tāpuaki fakapēteliaké. …

“… ʻOku ʻikai fie maʻu ke pelupelu maau ho tāpuakí ʻo fufuuʻi. ʻOku ʻikai fie maʻu ke fakaʻesia pe paaki. Ka, ʻoku fakataumuʻa ke lau. ʻOku fakataumuʻa ke ʻofaʻi. ʻOku fakataumuʻa ke muimuiʻi. ʻE tokoniʻi koe ʻe ho tāpuaki fakapēteliaké ʻi he ngaahi taimi faingataʻa tahá. Te ne tataki koe ʻi he ngaahi fakatuʻutāmaki ʻo e moʻuí. … Ko ho tāpuaki fakapēteliaké ko ha Liahona fakatāutaha ia kiate koe ke ne palani ho ʻalungá mo tataki ho halá” (“Your Patriarchal Blessing: A Liahona of Light,” Ensign, Nov. 1986, 65–66).

Liliu e ngaahi fehuʻi he palakipoé ke fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi tāpuaki fakapēteliaké. Aleaʻi fakakulupu ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi ko iá. Vahe ki ha taha ʻi hoʻo kulupú ke ne vahevahe mo e toenga ʻo e kalasí ʻa e meʻa kuo ako ʻe hoʻo kulupú. Fakaafeʻi foki ha taha mei hoʻo kulupú ke ne vahevahe ʻa e meʻa ʻokú ne aʻusia mei he fehuʻi 3.

Kulupu 2: Ko e Ngaahi Folofolá mo e Lea ʻa e Kau Palōfita ʻo e Ngaahi ʻAho Kimui Ní

Lau ki he kulupú ʻa e lea ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā W. Lolo Kea ʻo e Kau Fitungofulú:

“ʻE lava ke hoko e ngaahi folofola ʻa Kalaisí ko ha Liahona kiate kitautolu fakatāutaha, ke ne fakahaaʻi mai ʻa e halá. ʻOua muʻa naʻa tau fakapikopiko koeʻuhí ko hono faingofua ʻo e halá. Ka tau fakatō muʻa ʻa e ngaahi lea ʻa Kalaisí ki hotau ʻatamaí mo hotau lotó, ʻi he tui, ʻo hangē ko ʻene hā ʻi he folofola toputapú pea mo hono lea ʻaki ʻe he kau palōfita moʻuí, kau tangata kikite mo e kau tangata maʻu fakahā. Tau keinanga muʻa ʻi he folofola ʻa Kalaisí ʻi he tui, he ʻe hoko ʻa e ngaahi folofola ʻa Kalaisí ko hotau Liahona fakalaumālie, ʻo ne fakahā mai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku totonu ke tau faí” (“Ngaahi Folofola ʻa Kalaisí—Ko ʻEtau Liahona Fakalaumālié,” Ensign pe Liahona, Mē 2004, 37).

Liliu e ngaahi fehuʻi he palakipoé ke fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi folofolá mo e lea ʻa e kau palōfita ʻo e ngaahi ʻaho kimui ní. Aleaʻi fakakulupu ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi ko iá. Vahe ki ha taha ʻi hoʻo kulupú ke ne vahevahe mo e toenga ʻo e kalasí ʻa e meʻa kuo ako ʻe hoʻo kulupú. Fakaafeʻi foki mo ha taha mei hoʻo kulupú ke ne vahevahe e meʻa ʻokú ne aʻusia mei he fehuʻi 3.

Kulupu 3: Ko e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní

Lau ki he kulupú ʻa e lea ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā Tēvita A. Petinā ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá:

“ʻI heʻetau feinga ke fenāpasi hotau ʻulungāngá mo ʻetau ngāué pea mo e anga māʻoniʻoní, ʻoku tatau leva ʻa e Laumālie Māoniʻoní kiate kitautolu he ʻahó ni pea mo e Liahoná kia Līhai mo hono fāmilí ʻi honau kuongá. Ko e ngaahi tefitoʻi founga naʻe toki ngāue ai ʻa e Liahoná kia Līhaí, ko e ngaahi founga pē ia te ne fakaafeʻi mai e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ki heʻetau moʻuí. Pea ko e meʻa ko ia naʻá ne taʻofi e ngāue ʻa e Liahoná he kuonga muʻá, ko e meʻa tatau pē ia te ne fakatupu ʻetau mavahe mei he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní he ʻaho ní” (“Ke ʻIate Kitautolu Maʻu Ai Pē ʻa Hono Laumālié,” Ensign pe Liahona, Mē 2006, 30).

Liliu e ngaahi fehuʻi he palakipoé ke fekauʻaki mo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní. Aleaʻi fakakulupu ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi ko iá. Vahe ki ha taha ʻi hoʻo kulupú ke ne vahevahe mo e toenga ʻo e kalasí ʻa e meʻa kuo ako ʻe hoʻo kulupú. Fakaafeʻi foki ha taha mei hoʻo kulupú ke ne vahevahe e meʻa ʻokú ne aʻusia mei he fehuʻi 3.

Fakatokanga ki he faiakó: Hili ha miniti nai ʻe ono ki he valu, kole ange ki he kulupu takitaha ke akoʻi ki he kalasí ʻa e meʻa kuo nau ako mei heʻenau fealeaʻakí. Te ke ala fie maʻu foki ke fakaafeʻi ʻa e kau akó ke hiki ʻi heʻenau tohinoa ako folofolá pe tohi fakamatala fakakalasí kau ki ha taimi kuo tataki ai kinautolu ʻe he ʻEikí ʻi he ngaahi founga īkí. Fakakaukau ke talanoa ange kau ki ha taimi ne ke maʻu ai ha tataki mei he ʻEikí ʻo fakafou ʻi ha ngaahi founga iiki.
