Kakai Lalahi Kei Talavoú
Ko Hono Langa Hotau Fakavaʻé ʻo fakafou ʻi he Fanga Kiʻi Meʻa Iiki mo Faingofuá
“ʻOku fakahoko ʻe he fanga kiʻi meʻa iiki mo faingofuá ʻa e ngaahi fuʻu meʻa lalahi” (ʻAlamā 37:6).
ʻOku ou maʻu ha foʻi fetuʻu pelesitiki ʻi hoku lokí naʻá ku haʻu mo ia mei heʻeku ngāue fakafaifekaú. ʻOku ou fakaʻofoʻofaʻia ai ʻi heʻene uló. ʻOku tautau e kiʻi foʻi fetuʻu ko ʻení ʻi ha holisi ke u lava ʻo sio ki ai ʻi he pō kotoa pē ʻi heʻeku mohé pea mo e taimi ʻoku ou ʻā hake aí.
Naʻá ku toki fakatokangaʻi kimuí ni kuo ʻikai toe pipiki maʻu ʻeku foʻi fetuʻú ki he holisí ʻo hangē ko e angamahení, ka naʻe ʻikai ke u fuʻu tokanga ki ai. Ne u maʻu ha loto-falala ʻe fakamaʻu ia ʻe he kiʻi meʻi tepi ʻe taha ʻokú ne pukepuke ia ki he holisí.
Pea ʻi ha pongipongi ʻe taha, naʻe pulia ʻeku foʻi fetuʻú—kuo tō ia ki lalo. Ne u pehē ke toe fakamaʻu e foʻi fetuʻú ʻaki ha tepi lahi ange. Naʻá ku fakaʻaongaʻi he taimi ko ʻení ha konga tepi ʻe nima—konga ʻe taha ki he foʻi tapa takitaha—ke fakapapauʻi he ʻikai toe tō.
Ko e taimi ia naʻá ku fakatokangaʻi ai ʻoku tatau ʻeku kiʻi foʻi fetuʻú mo kitautolu takitaha, pea ʻe lava ke fakafofongaʻi ʻe he tepi fakapipikí ʻetau ngaahi tōʻonga moʻui fakalaumālié. ʻOku makatuʻunga kakato ʻa e maama ʻoku tau maʻu ʻi lotó ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku tau fai ke fakamālohia, pe fakamaʻu ʻaki ʻetau fakamoʻoní. Naʻe fakamanatu mai ʻe he meʻi tepi kotoa pē naʻá ku ʻai ki he foʻi fetuʻú ʻa e ʻAlamā 37:6: “ʻOku fakahoko ʻe he fanga kiʻi meʻa iiki mo faingofuá ʻa e ngaahi fuʻu meʻa lalahi.”
Naʻá ku fakakaukau foki ki heʻeku fakatokangaʻi ʻi ha ngaahi ʻaho lahi ʻe tō ʻeku foʻi fetuʻú ki laló, ka naʻe ʻikai ke u fai ha meʻa ke fakamaʻu hake ai ia kae ʻoua kuo tō. Pea ʻoku tatau pē ia mo ʻetau fakamoʻoní—kapau te tau fakafiefiemālie pea ngalo ke fakahoko e fanga kiʻi ngāue iiki mo fakalaumālie ʻe ala tokoni ke fakamālohia ʻetau tuí, ʻe malava pē ke vaivai ʻetau fakamoʻoní.
ʻOku fakamanatu mai ʻe he foʻi fetuʻú he pō kotoa pē ke u fehuʻi loto: Ko e hā e lahi ʻo e “tepi fakalaumālie” ne u fakaʻaongaʻi he ʻaho ní? ʻOku mālohi feʻunga nai ʻeku tuí ke u malu fakalaumālie ai mei haʻaku tō? ʻOku lava nai e niʻihi kehé ʻo sio ki he Maama ʻo Kalaisí ʻiate au?
ʻI heʻeku fakakaukau ki he ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení, ʻoku ou vakai ki he founga te u lava ai ʻo fakamālohia lelei ange ʻeku fakamoʻoni kia Sīsū Kalaisí. ʻOku ueʻi au ke u fakakaukau pe te u lava ʻo ako lahi ange ʻeku folofolá, lotu maʻu pē, toutou ʻalu maʻu pē ki he temipalé, pe ngāue lelei ange ʻi hoku uiuiʻí. ʻOku ou fakalaulauloto pe ko e hā ha ngaahi fehuʻi te u ala maʻu maʻá e ʻEikí mo e founga te u lava ai ʻo maʻu ʻa e moʻoní. Pea ʻoku tataki ai au ke u fakahoko ha fanga kiʻi liliu iiki ke fakaafeʻi lahi ange ai e Laumālié ki heʻeku moʻuí.
ʻE feinga maʻu pē ʻa e filí ke tohoakiʻi kitautolu mei heʻetau fakahoko e fanga kiʻi meʻa iiki mo fakalaumālie ko ʻení pe fakalotoʻi kitautolu kuo ʻosi feʻunga pē ʻetau fakahoko e kiʻi meʻa siʻisiʻi tahá ke kei maʻu ai ʻetau ngaahi fakamoʻoní. Ka kuo fakamanatu mai ʻe Palesiteni Lāsolo M. Nalesoni ʻoku fie maʻu ke tau fakapapauʻi moʻoni ʻetau tuí: “ʻOku ou kole atu kiate kimoutolu ke mou fokotuʻu ha taimi moʻó e ʻEikí! ʻAi ho tuʻunga fakalaumālié ke mālohi mo ne lava ke matuʻuaki e sivi ʻo e moʻuí ʻaki hano fai e ngaahi meʻa ʻe lava ai ke ʻiate kimoutolu maʻu ai pē e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní.”1
Hangē pē ko e tokoni ʻa e fanga kiʻi konga tepí ke pukepuke ʻeku foʻi fetuʻú mei heʻene toó, ʻe tokoniʻi kitautolu ʻe heʻetau fakaʻaongaʻi e “tepi fakalaumālié” pea fakafanongo ki he ngaahi ueʻi ʻa e Laumālié, ke tau kei ofi ai pē ki he Fakamoʻuí, ko e fakavaʻe ʻo ʻetau tuí, pea tekeʻi e ʻahiʻahi ʻa e filí. Naʻe fakamamafaʻi ʻe Palesiteni Tāleni H. ʻOakesi, Tokoni ʻUluaki ʻi he Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí, ʻa e mahuʻinga ʻo e fanga kiʻi meʻa īkí: “ʻOku ʻikai ʻuhinga e faingofua ʻo e halá mo e ngāue ne fekauʻí, ke pehē ʻoku taʻemahuʻinga ia.”2
Hangē ko ia ʻoku hā ʻi he ʻAlamā 37:6, ʻe lava ke tokoniʻi kitautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá ke tau aʻusia ha ngaahi taumuʻa maʻongoʻonga neongo ʻetau fanga kiʻi feinga ke ofi ange kia Kalaisí. Te ne lava ʻo fakatupulaki ʻetau ngaahi tōʻonga moʻui faingofua hangē ko e lotú, ako folofolá, mo e ʻalu ki he temipalé ke ne ʻomi ʻa e mālohi ʻoku tau fie maʻu ke ikunaʻi ʻaki ʻa e filí mo e ngaahi fakafeʻātungia kehe ʻi heʻetau moʻuí. Kapau te tau fakahoko e fanga kiʻi meʻa iiki mo faingofua ko ʻení, te tau lava ʻo tuʻu maʻu ʻi heʻetau tuí. Hangē pē ko ʻeku kiʻi foʻi fetuʻú, ʻe lava ke tuʻu maʻu hotau fakavaʻe ʻia Kalaisí ʻi heʻetau hokohoko atu ʻi he hala ʻo e fuakavá.
