Mōsaia 13–16. ʻE fakahoko tonu pē ʻe he ʻOtuá ha Fakalelei pea Huhuʻi ʻa Hono kakaí

Naʻe hokohoko atu hono fakahoko ʻe ʻApinetai hono fatongia ko e palōfitá ʻaki ʻene fakamoʻoni ki he misiona fakalangi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí.

Fakaafeʻi ha niʻihi ʻo e kau akó ke vahevahe mai ʻa e ngaahi tali naʻa nau hikí. Poupouʻi kātoa e kau akó ke nau fakalaulauloto lahi ange ki he ngaahi lea ʻa ʻĪsaiá ʻaki ʻenau toe lau ʻa e Mōsaia 14 ʻi ha taimi mavahe mei he kalasí pea vahevahe ʻa e meʻa ne nau akó mo ha mēmipa ʻo e fāmilí pe kaungāmeʻa.

Lolotonga hono lau mo aleaʻi ʻe he kau mēmipa ʻo e kalasí ʻa e ngaahi veesi ko ʻení, ʻe fie maʻu ke ke fakamatala ki hono fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe ʻApinetai ʻa e foʻi lea ko e ʻOtuá. ʻI hono fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe he Kāingalotú ʻa e foʻi lea ʻOtuá, ʻoku nau faʻa ʻuhinga kinautolu ki he Tamai Hēvaní. Ka naʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe ʻApinetai ʻa e foʻi leá ko e ʻuhinga kia Sīsū Kalaisi. Ke tokoni ke mahino ʻeni ki he kau akó, fakaafeʻi kinautolu ke nau lau ʻa e fakalahi ki he lēsoní he peesi 174–75 ʻi he tohi lēsoni ʻa e tokotaha akó.
