Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e lea ko ʻeni ʻa Palesiteni Henelī B. ʻAealingi ʻo e Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí:

Palesiteni Henry B. Eyring

“ʻOku ʻikai totonu ke tau teitei ongoʻi tuenoa pe ʻikai ʻofeina kitautolu ʻi he ngāue ʻa e ʻEikí, he ʻoku ʻikai ke moʻoni ia. ʻE lava ke tau ongoʻi e ʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá.

Pea ʻokú Ne fai maʻu pē ki Heʻene folofolá” (Ngaahi Faingataʻa ke Ikunaʻí,”Ensign pe Liahona, Mē 2012, 26).

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 84:98. Fakamahinoʻi ange ʻe hivaʻi ʻa e hiva ʻo e huhuʻi ʻo Saioné hili e Hāʻele ʻAngaua Mai ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻi he ʻiloʻi Ia ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻoku toe ʻi he māmaní.

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 84:118–119. Kole ki he kalasí ke nau muimui ki ai, ʻo fekumi ki he meʻa naʻe talaʻofa ʻe he ʻEikí.

  • Fakatatau ki he ngaahi veesi ko ʻení, ko e hā naʻe talaʻofa ʻe he ʻEiki ʻe mamata ki ai ʻa ʻEne kau tamaioʻeiki faivelengá? Kuó ke mamata fēfē ki hono fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e ngaahi mālohi ʻo e langí ʻi hotau kuongá ni?

Fakamoʻoni ange neongo ʻoku ʻikai lava ha niʻihi ʻi he māmaní ʻo mamata ki he mālohi ʻo e ʻEikí, ka ʻe hoko mai e ʻaho ʻe mamata e kakai kotoa pē kiate Ia pea ʻiloʻi Ia.
