“ʻE faifai pea huhuʻi ʻa e tokotaha kotoa pē mei he mate fakalaumālié tukukehe pē ʻa kinautolu kuo nau faiangahala ki he maté’ (T. & F. 64:7), ʻa ia ko kinautolu ia ʻoku fakataumuʻa ke hoko ko e ngaahi foha ʻo e malaʻiá. ʻOku akoʻi ʻe Sione e meʻá ni ʻaki ʻene pehē ʻe hili e maté pea tukuange hake ʻe heli ʻa e kau pekia ʻi aí, ʻe toe ʻlī [ʻa e maté mo heli] ki he ano ʻo e afí.
