Fakakakato Hoʻo Taumuʻa Fakafaifekaú
Ko Hoʻo Taumuʻá: Fakaafeʻi ha niʻihi kehe ke nau haʻu kia Kalaisi ʻaki hano tokoniʻi kinautolu ke nau tali ʻa e ongoongolelei kuo fakafoki maí, ʻo fakafou ʻi he tui kia Sīsū Kalaisi mo ʻEne Fakaleleí, fakatomala, papitaiso, maʻu ʻa e meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, pea kātaki ki he ngataʻangá.
Ko Ho Tufakanga ke Akoʻi e Ongoongolelei ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi Kuo Fakafoki Maí
ʻOku ʻākilotoa koe ʻe he kakaí. ʻOkú ke fetaulaki mo kinautolu ʻi he halá mo kaungā-fononga mo kinautolu. ʻOkú ke ʻaʻahi kiate kinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi ʻapí mo fetuʻutaki mo kinautolu ʻi he telefoní. Ko e fānau kotoa kinautolu ʻa e ʻOtuá—ko ho ngaahi tokoua, tuofāfine mo e tuongaʻane. ʻOku ʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻiate kinautolu ʻo hangē pē ko ʻEne ʻofa ʻiate koé.
Ko e tokolahi ʻo e kakaí ni ʻoku nau fekumi ki ha taumuʻa ʻi he moʻuí. ʻOku nau hohaʻa ki honau kahaʻú mo e kahaʻu honau ngaahi fāmilí. ʻOku nau fiemaʻu ʻa e ongoʻi ʻoku nau kau ko ē, ʻoku maʻu ʻi he ʻiloʻi ko e fānau kinautolu ʻa e ʻOtuá mo e kau mēmipa ʻo Hono fāmili taʻengatá. ʻOku nau fiemaʻu ke nau ongoʻi malu ʻi ha māmani kuo feliliuaki ai e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻulungaanga mahuʻingá. ʻOku nau fakaʻamua ʻa e “melino ʻi māmani, pea mo e moʻui taʻengata ʻi he maama ka hoko maí” (Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 59:23).
Ko ha tokolahi, “ʻoku kei ta‘ofi ʻa kinautolu mei he moʻoní koeʻuhí he ‘oku ʻikai pē te nau ʻilo ʻa e feituʻu ke ʻiloʻi ai iá” (Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 123:12). Ko e ongoongolelei ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻi hono fakafoki mai ʻi he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá, ʻokú ne ʻomai ʻa e moʻoni taʻengatá. ʻOku faitokonia ʻe he moʻoni ko ʻení ʻa e ngaahi fiemaʻu fakalaumālie ʻa e kakaí mo tokoniʻi kinautolu ʻi he fakahoko ʻenau ngaahi fakaʻānaua vivili tahá.
ʻI hoʻo hoko ko e fakafofonga kuo fakamafaiʻi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻokú ke akoʻi ʻoku “fou mai ʻa e huhuʻí ʻo tuʻunga ʻi he Mīsaia Māʻoniʻoní” (2 Nīfai 2:6). ʻOkú ke fakaafeʻi ʻa e kakaí ke nau haʻu kia Kalaisi, ke nau ului kiate Ia mo ʻEne ongoongolelei kuo fakafoki maí. ʻI heʻenau tali hoʻo fakaafé, te nau maʻu ai ha fiefia, ʻamanaki lelei, nonga, mo ha taumuʻa lahi ange.
Ke haʻu ki he Fakamoʻuí, ʻe fiemaʻu ʻa e kakaí ke nau tui kiate Ia. Te ke lava ʻo tokoni ke nau fakatupulaki ʻa e tui ko ʻení, ʻi hoʻo:
-
Akoʻi ange ʻa e ongoongolelei ʻo Kalaisi kuo fakafoki maí mo fakamoʻoni ki hono moʻoní.
-
Fakaafeʻi ke nau tukupā ke moʻui fakatatau ki hono ngaahi akonakí.
-
Toe muimuiʻi mo tokoni ke nau ngāueʻi ʻa e ngaahi tukupā ʻoku nau faí.
-
Tokoniʻi kinautolu ke nau foua ha ngaahi aʻusia ʻoku nau ongoʻi ai ʻa e ivi tākiekina ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní (vakai, 1 Nīfai 10:17–19).
ʻE taki ʻe he tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí ʻa e kakaí ke nau fakatomala. ʻOku ʻai ʻe Sīsū ke malava ʻa e fakatomalá, ʻaki ʻEne fakalelei maʻa ʻetau ngaahi angahalá. Ko e taimi ʻoku fakatomala ai ʻa e kakaí, ʻe fakamaʻa kinautolu mei he angahalá pea nau fakaʻau ʻo ofi ange ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisi. Te nau maʻu ʻa e nēkeneka mo e nonga ʻo e maʻu e fakamolemolé.
ʻOku teuteuʻi ʻe he fakatomalá ʻa e kakaí ki he fuakava ʻo e papitaisó pea mo e meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní. Naʻe folofola ʻa e Fakamoʻuí, “Haʻu kiate au, ʻo papitaiso ʻi hoku hingoá, koeʻuhi ke fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻa kimoutolu ʻi he maʻu ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, koeʻuhí ke mou tuʻu taʻe-ha-mele ʻi hoku ʻaó ʻi he ʻaho fakaʻosí” (3 Nīfai 27:20).
Ko e taimi ʻoku tupulaki ai hoʻo mahinó mo e fakamoʻoni ki he Fakamoʻuí mo ʻEne Fakaleleí, ʻe tupulaki ai mo hoʻo fakaʻamu ke vahevahe ʻa e ongoongoleleí. Hangē ko e ongo naʻe maʻu ʻe Līhaí, te ke ongoʻi foki ʻene “mahu‘inga lahi ke fakahā ʻa e ngaahi meʻá ni ki he kakai ‘oku nofo ‘i he māmaní” (2 Nīfai 2:8).
Ko e Mafai mo e Mālohi ʻo Ho Uiuiʻí
Kuo uiuiʻi koe mo vaheʻi ke ke “malanga ʻaki ʻa e ongoongo fakafiefia ʻo e fiefia lahí, ʻio, ʻa e ongoongolelei taʻengatá” (Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 79:1). Te ke lava ʻo faiako, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Mōsaiá, ʻi he mafai mo e mālohi ʻo e ʻOtuá (vakai, ʻAlamā 17:2–3).
Naʻe fakafoki mai ʻa e mafai ke malangaʻi ʻa e ongoongoleleí ʻi he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá, ʻi he fakahinohino ʻe Kalaisí. Ko e taimi naʻe vaheʻi ai koe ko e faifekaú, naʻá ke maʻu ai ʻa e mafai ko ʻení. ʻOku haʻu fakataha mo ia ʻa e totonu, faingamālie, mo e fatongia ke fakafofongaʻi ʻa e ʻEikí mo akoʻi ʻEne ongoongoleleí.
ʻOku kau ʻi he mafai ko ʻení ʻa e fatongia ke moʻui taau mo ho uiuiʻí. Fakahoko moʻoni ʻa hono vaheʻi koé. Fakamamaʻo mei he angahalá mo ha meʻa pē ʻoku taʻe-taau mo taʻe-fakaʻapaʻapa. Fakamamaʻo mei he ngaahi ʻalunga mo e fakakaukau ʻa e māmaní. Muimui ki he ngaahi tuʻunga moʻui ʻi he Ngaahi Tuʻunga Moʻui Fakafaifekau maʻá e Kau Ākonga ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí. ʻI hoʻo hoko ko e fakafofonga ʻo e ʻEikí, hoko ko “[ha sīpinga ʻo e] kakai tuí” (1 Tīmote 4:12). Fakaʻapaʻapaʻi ʻa e huafa ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ʻaki hoʻo ngaahi angafaí mo e ngaahi leá.
Makehe mei he mafaí, te ke fiemaʻu ʻa e mālohi fakalaumālie ke fakahoko ho uiuiʻí. ʻOku foaki ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e mālohi fakalaumālié ʻi hoʻo ngāue taʻe-tuku ke fakaivia hoʻo fakamoʻoni kiate Ia, ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi, pea mo e ngaahi moʻoni ʻo e ongoongoleleí ʻokú ke akoʻí. ʻOkú Ne foaki ʻa e mālohi fakalaumālié ʻi hoʻo lotu, ako ʻa e folofolá, mo feinga ke fakahoko hoʻo taumuʻa fakafaifekaú. ʻOkú Ne foaki ʻa e mālohi fakalaumālié ʻi hoʻo feinga ke tauhi ʻEne ngaahi fekaú pea mo e ngaahi fuakava naʻá ke fakahoko ʻi he taimi naʻá ke maʻu ai ʻa e ngaahi ouau ʻo e fakamoʻoní (vakai, Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 35:24).
ʻE lava ke fakahaaʻi ʻa e mālohi fakalaumālié ʻi hoʻo:

Fakahaaʻi hoʻo ʻofa mo e houngaʻia ki he ʻEikí, ho fāmilí, kau faifekau kehé, pea mo e kakai ʻokú ke ngāue ki aí (vakai, Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 59:7; 78:19).
Feinga ke ʻIate Koe ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní.
Naʻá ke maʻu ʻa e meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ʻi he taimi naʻe hilifakinima ai koe ko e mēmipa ʻo e Siasí. ʻI hoʻo hoko ko e faifekaú—pea ʻi he kotoa hoʻo moʻuí—ko e taha hoʻo ngaahi fiemaʻu maʻongoʻonga tahá ke ʻiate koe ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní (vakai, 1 Nīfai 10:17; 3 Nīfai 19:9). Ko e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ʻa e mēmipa hono tolu ʻo e Toluʻi ʻOtuá.
ʻE hanga ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ʻo tataki, akoʻi, pea mo fakafiemālieʻi koe. Te Ne fakamaʻa mo fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi koe. Te Ne fakamoʻoniʻi ʻa e moʻoní mo fakamoʻoni ki he Tamaí mo e ʻAló. Ko ia ʻokú ne fakahoko ʻetau uluí mo e ului ʻa kinautolu ʻokú ke akoʻí. (Vakai, 3 Nīfai 27:20; 28:11; ʻEta 12:41; Molonai 8:26; 10:5; Sione 15:26.)
ʻE hanga ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ʻo “fakahā kiate kimoutolu ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku totonu ke mou faí” (2 Nīfai 32:5). Te Ne fakalahi ho iví mo hoʻo ngāué ʻo ope atu ʻaupito ʻi he meʻa naʻá ke mei lava ʻo fakahoko ʻiate koe peé.
ʻOku totonu ke hoko ʻa e feinga ke maʻu ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ko e taha ia hoʻo ngaahi fakaʻānaua fakamātoato tahá. Te ke ongoʻi ʻEne takauá ʻi hoʻo:

Maʻu ʻa e sākalamēnití ʻi he uike takitaha (vakai, Molonai 4–5; Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 20:77, 79).
“ʻOku ou kole atu kiate kimoutolu ke fakatupulaki hoʻomou malava fakalaumālie ke maʻu ʻa e fakahaá. Fili ke ke fai ʻa e ngāue fakalaumālie ʻoku fiemaʻu ke ke maʻu ai ʻa e meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní mo toutou fanongo pea mo mahino ange kiate koe ʻa e leʻo ʻo e Laumālié” (“Fakahā maʻá e Siasí, Fakahā ki Heʻetau Moʻuí,” Liahona, Mē 2018, 96).
Ako ke Fakatokangaʻi ʻa e Laumālié
Te ke fakahoko lelei ange hoʻo taumuʻa fakafaifekaú ʻi he taimi te ke feinga ai ke fakatokangaʻi mo muimui ki he fakahinohino mei he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní. Ko e Laumālié ʻoku meimei ke fetuʻutaki leʻosiʻi maʻu pē, ʻo fakafou ʻi he ngaahi ongó mo e ngaahi fakakaukaú. Līʻoa hoʻo moʻuí ke fekumi, fakatokangaʻi, mo muimui ki he ngaahi ueʻi leʻo siʻi ko ʻení ʻOku nau hoko mai ʻi ha ngaahi founga kehekehe (vakai, vahe 4; vakai foki, Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 8:2–3; 11:12–14; Kalētia 5:22–23).
Faiako ʻaki e Laumālié
Ko e ongoongolelei ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí “ko e mālohi ia ʻo e ʻOtuá ki he fakamoʻuí kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tuí” (Loma 1:16). ʻI he ʻuhinga ko iá, ʻoku fiemaʻu leva ʻa e pōpoaki ʻo e Fakafoki mai ʻo e ongoongoleleí ke akoʻi ʻaki ʻe ha mālohi fakalangi—ʻe he mālohi ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní.
Naʻe folofola ʻa e ʻEikí, “ʻE foaki atu ʻa e Laumālié kiate kimoutolu ʻi he lotu ʻo e tuí; pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou maʻu ʻa e Laumālié ʻe ʻikai te mou faiako” (Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 42:14; vakai foki, 50:13–14, 17–22). ʻI hoʻo faiako ʻaki e mālohi ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, te Ne:

ʻE tāpuakiʻi lahi fau koe ʻe he ʻEikí ʻi hoʻo feinga, falala, mo faiako ʻaki e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní (vakai, vahe 4 mo e 10).
Ko e Ongoongolelei ʻo Kalaisí mo e Tokāteline ʻo Kalaisí
ʻOku fakamahinoʻi ʻe he ongoongolelei ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí hoʻo pōpoakí mo hoʻo taumuʻá. ‘Okú ne fakatou ʻomai ʻa e “meʻa” pea mo e “uhinga” hoʻo ngāue fakafaifekaú. ʻOku kau ʻi Heʻene ongoongoleleí ʻa e kotoa ʻo e ngaahi tokāteline, ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni, ngaahi fono, ngaahi fekau, ngaahi ouau, mo e ngaahi fuakava ʻoku fiemaʻu ki he fakamoʻuí mo e hākeakiʻí.
Ko e pōpoaki ʻo e ongoongoleleí te tau lava ʻo maʻu ʻa e mālohi fakahaofi mo e huhuʻi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ʻaki haʻatau tui kiate Ia, fakatomala, papitaiso, maʻu ʻa e meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, pea kātaki ki he ngataʻangá (vakai, 3 Nīfai 27:13–22).
ʻOku toe ʻiloa foki ʻeni ko e tokāteline ʻa Kalaisi. Ko hono moʻui ʻaki ʻo e tokāteline ko ʻení ko e founga ia ʻoku tau haʻu ai kia Kalaisi pea fakahaofí (vakai, 1 Nīfai 15:14). ʻOku akoʻi mahino ʻeni ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná (vakai, 2 Nīfai 31; 32:1–6; 3 Nīfai 11:31–40). Ko hoʻo taumuʻá ke tokoniʻi ʻa e kakaí ke nau haʻu kia Kalaisi ʻaki hono tokoniʻi kinautolu ke nau moʻui ʻaki ʻEne tokāteliné.
“Malangaʻi ʻa e ngaahi ʻuluaki tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻo e Ongoongoleleí—toe malangaʻi pē kinautolu: pea te ke fakatokangaʻi ʻe fakahā mai kiate koe, mei he ʻaho ki he ʻaho, ha ngaahi fakakaukau foʻou mo ha ngaahi mahino makehe fekauʻaki mo kinautolu. Te ke lava ʻo toe fakamaama ange kinautolu ke mahino lelei ange kiate koe. Pea te ke toki lava leva ʻo ʻai ke mahino ange ia kiate kinautolu ʻokú ke akoʻí” (Hyrum Smith, ʻi he History, 1838–1856, volume E-1 [1 July 1843–30 April 1844], 1994, josephsmithpapers.org).
Tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí
Ko e tuí ko e fakavaʻe ia ki he ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni kehe kotoa pē ʻo e ongoongoleleí. Ko ha tefitoʻi moʻoni ia ʻo e ngāue mo e mālohi.
Ko ʻetau tuí ʻoku totonu ke nofotaha ia ʻia Sīsū Kalaisi he ʻokú ne taki kitautolu ki he fakamoʻuí. Naʻe akoʻi ʻe he Fakamoʻuí, “He naʻe ʻofa pehē ʻa e ʻOtuá ki māmani, naʻá ne foaki hono ʻAlo pē taha naʻe fakatupú, koeʻuhí ko ia kotoa pē ʻe tui kiate iá ke ʻoua naʻa ʻauha, kae maʻu ʻa e moʻui taʻengatá” (Sione 3:16).
ʻOku kau ʻi he tui kia Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa e tui ko e ʻAlo ʻOfaʻanga Pē Taha ia Naʻe Fakatupu ʻo e ʻOtuá. Ko e falala ia ko Iá ko hotau Fakamoʻui mo e Huhuʻi (vakai, Mōsaia 3:17; 4:6–10; ʻAlamā 5:7–15). Ko e maʻu ia ʻo e falala kakato kiate Ia mo ʻEne folofolá, ngaahi akonakí, mo e ngaahi palōmesí. ʻOku tupulaki ʻetau tui kia Kalaisí ʻi heʻetau muimui ki Heʻene ngaahi akonakí mo e sīpingá ʻi he loto fakamātoato moʻoní (vakai, 2 Nīfai 31:6–13; 3 Nīfai 27:21–22).
ʻI hoʻo hoko ko e faifekaú, tokoniʻi ʻa e kakaí ke nau fakahoko mo tauhi ʻa e ngaahi tukupā ko ē ʻokú ne langaki ʻenau tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí. ʻOku teuteuʻi ʻe he ngaahi tukupā ko ʻení kinautolu ke nau maʻu ʻa e ngaahi ouaú mo fai e ngaahi fuakava mo e ʻOtuá.
Fakatomalá
Ko e tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí ʻokú ne taki kitautolu ke tau fakatomala (vakai, Hilamani 14:13). Ko e fakatomalá ko e founga ia ʻo e tafoki ki he ʻOtuá kae sītuʻa mei he angahalá. ʻI heʻetau fakatomalá, ʻoku liliu leva ʻetau angafaí, ngaahi fakaʻamú, mo e fakakaukaú ke fenāpasi lahi ange mo e finangalo ʻo e ʻOtuá.
ʻI Heʻene feilaulau fakaleleí, naʻe totongi huhuʻi ai ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻetau ngaahi angahalá (vakai, Mōsaia 15:9; ʻAlamā 34:15–17). ʻI heʻetau fakatomalá, ʻe lava leva ke fakamolemoleʻi kitautolu tuʻunga ʻia Sīsū Kalaisi mo ʻEne feilaulaú, he ʻokú Ne ʻekea ʻene ngaahi totonu ʻo e ʻaloʻofa ki he fakatomalá (vakai, Molonai 7:27–28). ʻI he ngaahi lea ʻa e palōfita ko Līhaí, ko hotau “huhuʻí ʻoku fou mai … ʻi he ngaahi ngāue māʻoniʻoni, mo e ʻaloʻofa, mo e manavaʻofa ʻa e Mīsaia Māʻoniʻoní” (2 Nīfai 2:6, 8).
Ko e fakatomalá ʻoku mahulu hake ia ʻi he fakaʻaongaʻi pē ʻo e loto lahi ke liliu ha ʻulungaanga pe ikunaʻi ha vaivaiʻangá. Ko e fakatomalá ko e tafoki fakamātoato kia Kalaisi, ʻa ē ʻokú Ne foaki mai ʻa e mālohi ke foua ha “fuʻu liliu lahi” ʻi hotau lotó (vakai, ʻAlamā 5:12–14). ʻOku kau ai ʻa e ongongofua ʻi he loto-fakatōkilalo ki he Laumālié mo e tukulolo ki he finangalo ʻo e ʻOtuá. ʻI heʻetau fakatomalá, ʻoku tau fakatupulaki ai ʻetau tukupā ke tauhi ki he ʻOtuá mo talangofua ki Heʻene ngaahi fekaú. ʻOku toe fanauʻi foʻou fakalaumālie ai kitautolu ʻia Kalaisi.
Ko e fakatomalá ko ha tefitoʻi moʻoni lelei ia ʻokú ne ʻomai e fiefiá mo e nongá. ʻOkú ne ʻomi kiate kitautolu “ʻa e mālohi ʻo e Huhuʻí, ke fakamoʻui [hotau] laumālié” (Hilamani 5:11).
ʻAi ke ke loto-toʻa mo ʻofa ʻi he tokoniʻi ʻo e kakaí ke mahino ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻoku totonu ai ke nau fakatomalá. ʻI hoʻo fakaafeʻi ʻa e kakai ʻokú ke akoʻí ke nau fai ha ngaahi tukupaá, fakaafeʻi kinautolu ke nau fakatomala mo foaki ange ha ʻamanaki.
Papitaisó
ʻOku teuteuʻi kitautolu ʻe he tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí mo e fakatomalá ki he ouau ʻo e papitaisó. “Ko e ʻuluaki fua ʻo e fakatomalá ko e papitaiso” (Molonai 8:25). ʻOku tau hū ʻi he matapā ki he moʻui taʻengatá ʻi he taimi ʻoku papitaiso ai kitautolu ʻi he fakauku ʻe ha taha ʻokú ne maʻu ʻa e mafaí mei he ʻOtuá.
Ko e taimi ʻoku tau papitaiso aí, ʻoku tau fai ha fuakava mo e ʻOtuá. ʻI heʻetau tauhi ʻa e fuakava ko ʻení, ʻoku talaʻofa mai leva ʻa e ʻOtuá ke foaki mai e feohi ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, fakamolemoleʻi ʻetau ngaahi angahalá, mo foaki mai hotau tuʻunga mēmipa ʻi he Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí (vakai, Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 20:77, 79; Molonai 6:4). ʻOku tānaki kitautolu ki he ʻEikí pea fanauʻi foʻou fakalaumālie ʻi he ouau fakafiefia mo ʻamanaki leleí ni.
ʻOku mātuʻaki mahuʻinga ʻa e papitaiso mo e hilifakinima ʻo e kakai ʻokú ke akoʻí ki hoʻo taumuʻá. Tokoniʻi ke mahino kiate kinautolu ko e taau ko ia ke papitaisó, ʻoku fiemaʻu ke nau lavaʻi ʻa e ngaahi tūʻunga ʻi he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 20:37.
Hilifakinimá mo e Meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní
ʻOku hoko ʻa e papitaisó ʻi he konga ʻe ua: papitaiso ʻi he vaí mo e papitaiso ʻi he Laumālié. Hili hono papitaiso kitautolu ʻaki e vaí, ʻoku toki kakato ʻa e papitaisó ʻi he taimi ʻoku hilifakinima ai kitautolu ʻi he hilifakinima ʻe ha taha ʻokú ne maʻu ʻa e mafai mei he ʻOtuá. Te tau lava ʻi he hilifakinimá ke maʻu ʻa e meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní mo fakamolemoleʻi ʻetau ngaahi angahalá.
Naʻe akoʻi ʻe he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá, “Ko e papitaiso ʻaki ʻa e vaí ko ha konga pē ia ʻo e papitaisó, pea ʻoku ʻikai hano ʻaonga ʻo kapau he ʻikai fakahoko ʻa e konga ʻe tahá—ʻa ia, ko e papitaiso ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní” (Ngaahi Akonaki ʻa e Kau Palesiteni ʻo e Siasí: Siosefa Sāmita [2007], 109).
