  Te tau lava ʻo foua ha “liliu ʻo e lotó” kapau te tau tafoki ki he ʻOtuá.

(Vakai ki he pōpoaki meia ‘Eleta Tieta F. ʻUkitofa ‘i he “Ngaahi Maʻuʻanga Tokoni Lahi Ange” ki ha ngaahi fakakaukau.) Ko e hā ha “ngaahi meʻa” mo e “ngaahi fakahinohino” te nau lava ke tānaki ki he foungá mei heʻenau aʻusiá pe ha toe ngaahi aʻusia kehe ʻi he folofolá?

Te ke lava foki ‘o vahevahe e lea ko eni meia Palesiteni Tāleni H. ʻOakesi: “Kuo fakahā ʻe hotau Fakamoʻuí naʻe ‘hāʻele hifo ki lalo ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē’ (T&F 88:6). … Mahalo ʻe aʻu ʻo tau pehē ko ʻene hifo mai ʻo māʻulalo ange he meʻa kotoá, ʻoku ʻi ha tuʻunga ai ke Ne hiki hake kitautolu mo foaki mai ʻa e ivi ʻoku tau fie maʻu ke kātakiʻi hotau ngaahi mamahí.
