Naʻe mamata ʻa e ʻAposetolo ko Sioné ki hono fakaava ʻo e fakamaʻu hono fitú, peá ne ʻilo ai hono misiona ke kau ʻi hono tānaki ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kimui ní. Neongo ʻa e ngaahi mahaki fakaʻauha, ngaahi fakaʻauha, mo e ngaahi tautea ʻe hoko ki he kakai ʻo e māmaní, naʻe mamata ʻa Sione ʻe fakahaofi ʻa kinautolu naʻe moʻui taaú mei he konga lahi ʻo e ngaahi meʻá ni.
Fakahā 8–9
Ko e mamata ʻa Sione ki hono fakaava ʻo e fakamaʻu hono fitú
Sio ki he saati ʻoku ʻoatu heni kau ki he tohi ʻa Fakahaá. Fakatokangaʻi ʻa e lahi ʻo e ngaahi veesi ʻoku lave ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻo e fuofua fakamaʻu ʻe onó ʻi hono fakafehoanaki ki he lahi ʻo e ngaahi veesi ʻoku lave ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻo e fakamaʻu hono fitú.
Naʻe lahi ange e meʻa naʻe tohi ʻe he ʻAposetolo ko Sioné kau ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fekauʻaki mo e taʻu ʻe 1,000 hono fitú ʻi he meʻa naʻá ne tohi kau ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi taʻu ʻe 1,000 kehé. Naʻe fakatōmamafa ʻene tohí ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e fakaava ʻo e fakamaʻu hono fitú mo e Hāʻele ʻAngaua Mai ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí.
Ko e hā ʻokú ke pehē naʻe lahi ai ʻa e meʻa ne tohi ʻe Sione kau ki he ngaahi meʻa fekauʻaki mo e fakamaʻu hono fitú?
ʻI hoʻo ako ʻa e mata meʻa-hā-maí ʻa Sione ʻi he Fakahā 8–11, fakakaukau pe ko e hā ʻe lava ke tau ako mei he meʻa naʻá ne tohi fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi meʻa ko ʻení.
ʻOku fakamatalaʻi ʻi he Fakahā 8:1–6 hono fakaava ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻa e fakamaʻu hono fitú. Naʻe mamata ʻa Sione ki ha kau ʻāngelo ʻe toko fitu ne foaki kiate kinautolu ha ngaahi talupite ʻe fitu. “Naʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ʻa e talupité ʻi he kuonga muʻá ke fakahā ha meʻa, fakaʻilonga [ki ha kau tau] ke tau, pe fakaongo ha tūʻuta ʻa ha tuʻi. Ko ia ai, ko hono ifi ʻo ha talupite ko hono fakahā pe fakaongo ia ʻo ha meʻa ʻoku fuʻu mahuʻinga” (Gerald N. Lund, “Seeing the Book of Revelation as a Book of Revelation,” Ensign, Dec. 1987, 50).
Lau ʻa e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 77:12, ʻo kumi ki he meʻa ʻe fakaʻilongaʻi ʻaki hono ifi ʻo e talupite ʻe fitú.
ʻI he Fakahā 8:1–6, ʻe fakaʻilongaʻi ʻaki hono ifi e ngaahi talupité ʻa e kamataʻanga ʻo e ngaahi mahaki fakaʻauha kehekehe mo e fakaʻauha ʻi he teuteu ki he Hāʻele ʻAngaua Mai ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí pea mo ʻEne pule ʻi he lolotonga ʻo e Nofo Tuʻí.
Lau ʻa e ngaahi fakamoʻoni fakafolofola ko ʻení, ʻa ia ʻoku fakamatala ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fekauʻaki mo e ifi ʻo e fuofua talupite ʻe onó. Lolotonga hoʻo laukongá, kumi ha ngaahi tali ki he ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení:
ʻUluakí—Fakahā 8:7. Ko e hā ne hoko ʻo tupu mei he “ʻuha maka mo e afi” ne tō ki he māmaní ʻi hono ifi ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻuluakí ʻene talupité?

Tolú—Fakahā 8:10–11. Ko e hā naʻe hoko ʻi he taimi ne tō hifo ai ʻa e fetuʻu lahí mei he langí? (Fakatokangaʻi ange ko e ʻakau koná ko ha faʻahinga pē ʻo e ʻakaú; ʻoku fakaʻaongaʻi ke fakataipe ki he “fakamamahi ʻo e faingataʻá pe loto-mamahi” [vakai, Bible Dictionary in the LDS English version of the Bible, “Wormwood”].)

Nima—Fakahā 9:1–3. Ko e hā naʻe haʻu mei he luo taʻe hano takelé ʻi he taimi naʻe fakaava ai ʻe he ʻāngelo?
Ono—Fakahā 9:13–16, 18. Ko e kau tau ʻe toko fiha ne kau ʻi he tau lahi naʻe mamata ki ai ʻa Sione hili hono ifi ʻo e talupite hono onó? Ko e kakai fē ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá naʻá ne mamata ki hono fakapoongi kinautolu ʻi he tau ko ʻení?
Lau ʻa e Fakahā 9:20–21, ʻo kumi ki he meʻa ʻe fai ʻe he kakai faiangahala ʻe ʻikai ke fakaʻauha ʻi he ngaahi fakaʻauhá ni.
Fakahā 10
ʻOku fakahinohinoʻi ʻe ha ʻāngelo ʻa Sione kau ki heʻene ngāue fakafaifekau ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kimui ní
ʻOku kiʻi taʻofi fakataimi ʻa e fakamatala ki he ifi ʻo e talupite hono fitú pea mo hono ngaahi mamahí ʻo ʻikai ha lave ki ai ʻi he Fakahā 10. ʻOku tau lau ʻi he vahe ko ʻení naʻe fakahinohinoʻi ʻa Sione ʻe ha ʻāngelo ʻe taha.
Ko e hā ha ngaahi aʻusia ʻi he moʻuí ʻe lava ke pehē ʻoku fakatou melie mo kona?
Lau ʻa e Fakahā 10:1–3, ʻo kumi ki he meʻa naʻe toʻotoʻo ʻe he ʻāngeló.
Lau ʻa e Fakahā 10:8–11, ʻo kumi ki he meʻa naʻe fekau kia Sione ke ne fai ki he kiʻi tohí. Fakatokangaʻi pe naʻe ifo fēfē ia kiate ia.
Lau ʻa e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 77:14, ʻo kumi ki he meʻa naʻe fakafofongaʻi ʻe he kiʻi tohí.
Naʻe tāpuakiʻi ʻa e ʻAposetolo ko Sioné ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ke moʻui ʻo aʻu ki Heʻene Hāʻele ʻAngaua Maí, mo ʻomi ʻa e kakaí kiate Ia (vakai, Sione 21:20–24; T&F 7:1–4). Ko e misiona ʻo Sioné ke tokoni ki hono tānaki ʻo e fānau ʻa ʻIsilelí. Ko e hā ha ngaahi founga ʻe lava ke melie mo kona ai ha misiona pehē?

Lolotonga e taimi ko ʻení, ʻe lahi ange ʻa e mālohi mo hono puleʻi ʻe he kau faiangahalá ʻa e māmaní, pea ʻe feinga ha kau tau ke ikunaʻi ʻa Selusalema, ʻa ia ko ha konga ia ʻo e tau lahi fakaʻosi ʻo e ʻAmakētoné.
Naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe Sione ʻa e kolo ko Selusalemá pea mo hono ikunaʻi ʻe he kau Senitailé (ʻa kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai ke fakahoko mo tauhi e ngaahi fuakava mo e ʻEikí) ʻi ha vahaʻa taimi ʻo e māhina ʻe 42, ʻa ia ko e taʻu ʻe tolu mo e konga.
