Naʻe talaange ʻe Nīfai ki hono ngaahi tokouá, “Kapau [kuo fai] ʻe he ʻOtuá … ha ngaahi mana lahi pehē ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e fānau ʻa e tangatá, ko e hā nai ʻoku ʻikai ai te ne fakahinohinoʻi au ke u foʻu ha vaká?” (1 Nīfai 17:51).

ʻI he tokoni ʻa e ʻOtuá, naʻe foʻu ʻe Nīfai mo hono fāmilí ha vaka pea fakahoko ʻa e fononga faingataʻa ʻi he ʻōsení. Hangē pē ko e tokoniʻi ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa Nīfaí, ʻoku finangalo ʻa e ʻOtuá ke Ne tokoniʻi koe. Te ke lava ʻo lotua ha fakahinohino. Te ke lava ʻo lotu ke maʻu ha mahino mo manatuʻi e meʻa ʻokú ke akó. ʻI hoʻo lotú, tokanga ki he ngaahi fakakaukau mo e ngaahi ongo ʻokú ke maʻú. Pea ngāue leva ʻi he tui. Te ke lava ʻo fakahoko ha meʻa lahi ange ʻi Heʻene tokoní.
