Ko ha taumuʻa ia ʻo e Lakanga Taulaʻeiki Faka-Melekisētekí. ʻI heʻetau tauhi ʻa e ngaahi fuakavá ʻi hono maʻu ʻo e lakanga fakataulaʻeikí pea mo fakafoʻou kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ouau fakatemipalé, ʻoku talaʻofa mai ai kiate kitautolu ʻi ha fakapapau meia ʻElohimi ko ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní, te tau maʻu ʻa e fonu ʻo Hono nāunaú ʻi heʻetau moʻui ʻo tatau mo Iá.
