Fakaʻilekitulōnika Pē: Kakai Lalahi Kei Talavoú
Kapau Naʻá Ke Moʻui ʻo ʻIkai Fenāpasi mo e Ongoongoleleí, ʻOku Kei Taimi pē ke Foki Mai
Naʻe tokoniʻi au ʻe heʻeku manatuʻi ʻa e ngaahi fuakava naʻá ku fai mo e Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisí ke u maʻu ʻa e loto-toʻa ke foki ki he lotú.
Naʻá ku tupu hake ʻi Kalasinouta, Lūsia. ʻI heʻeku kei siʻí, naʻe papitaiso au ʻi ha siasi faka-Kalisitiane naʻe hoko ko e konga hoku anga fakafonuá. Naʻá ku ʻiloʻi naʻe moʻoni ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi, ka naʻe ʻikai ke u fuʻu mālohi ʻi heʻeku tui fakalotú.
ʻI ha ngaahi taʻu siʻi kimui ange, naʻá ku feʻiloaki ai mo e ongo faifekau ʻa e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻo e Kau Māʻoniʻoni ʻi he Ngaahi ʻAho Kimui Ní. Naʻá ku maʻu ha fakamoʻoni ki hono moʻoni ʻo e ongoongoleleí peá u fai ha fuakava mo e ʻOtuá ʻo fakafou ʻi he papitaisó—ko ha fuakava ke tauhi ki he ʻOtuá, tauhi ʻEne ngaahi fekaú, pea loto-fiemālie ke toʻo kiate au ʻa e huafa ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí pea manatu maʻu ai pē kiate Ia.
Ko ha Hōngea Fakalaumālie
ʻI he taimi naʻá ku fuofua papitaiso aí, naʻe lelei ʻeku moʻuí! Naʻá ku ʻofa ʻi he ʻOtuá, Sīsū Kalaisi, pea mo e Siasí. Naʻá ku ʻofa moʻoni ʻi he ongoongoleleí pea naʻá ku loto ke vahevahe ʻeku ngaahi ongó mo hoku kaungāakó. Ka ʻi heʻeku fai iá, naʻe fakafepakiʻi au. Koeʻuhí ko e toʻonga ʻa e niʻihi kehé kiate au ʻi heʻeku tui fakalotú, naʻe pau ai ke u hiki ki ha ʻapiako kehe. Pea pau ai ke u fononga toko taha ʻi he hala ʻo ha ākonga ʻo Kalaisí.
Naʻá ku lava ʻo kātekina ʻeni ʻi ha kiʻi taimi nounou. Naʻá ku fakaʻaongaʻi hoku taimí ke feohi mo hoku ngaahi kaungāmeʻa tokosiʻí mo e kau faifekaú. Naʻe mālohi ʻeku fakamoʻoní, ka ʻi he hili ʻeku ʻosi mei he akó pea hiki ki ha kolo foʻoú, naʻá ku kiʻi momou ke vahevahe ʻeku tui fakalotú koeʻuhí ko ʻeku ngaahi aʻusia naʻe ʻikai lelei ʻi he kuohilí.
Naʻe kamata ke siʻisiʻi ange ʻeku tokanga ki he ongoongoleleí. Lolotonga ʻa e taimi ko ʻení, neongo naʻe ʻikai ke lahi ʻeku fuʻu tokanga ki he ongoongoleleí, ka naʻá ku kei ʻamanaki pē ʻe tokoni mai ʻa e ʻOtuá kiate au ʻi hoku ngaahi faingataʻaʻiá. Ka ʻi he ʻikai ke u maʻu ʻa e ngaahi tāpuaki ko ia naʻá ku ʻamanaki ki aí, naʻá ku fakakaukau ʻoku ʻikai ke u toe fie tatali ki Heʻene fakahinohinó.
Naʻe hoko ʻa e foʻi liʻaki lotu tuʻo tahá ke aʻu ʻo tuʻo tolu, pea laulau māhina ʻa e ʻikai ke u toe ʻalu ki he lotú. Naʻe iku ʻeni ke u fai ai ha fanga kiʻi tuʻutuʻuni naʻe fepaki mo e ngaahi tuʻunga moʻui ʻo e ongoongoleleí, ʻa ia naʻe iku ʻo hoko ko ha ngaahi fili naʻe toe faingataʻa ange. Kimuʻa peá u fakatokangaʻi ʻa e meʻa kuo hokó, kuo teʻeki ai ke u toe ʻalu ʻo maʻulotu ʻi he Siasí ʻi he taʻu eni ʻe nima pea kuo teʻeki ke u ongoʻi ha fuʻu vāmamaʻo pehē mei he ʻOtuá.
Ka ʻoku ou kei manatuʻi pē naʻá ku ʻosi fai ha ngaahi fuakava, pea ʻoku kei ʻi ai pē haʻaku kiʻi fakamoʻoni. Ka naʻá ku tukunoaʻi ʻa e ngaahi fakakaukau ko iá koeʻuhí he naʻe ʻikai ke u ongoʻi fiemālie ʻi hono ʻiloʻi naʻe ʻikai ke fenāpasi ʻeku moʻuí mo e ongoongoleleí.
Naʻe faifai peá u aʻu ki ha tuʻunga matuʻaki fakaloloma, he naʻá ku foua ai ha hōngea fakalaumālie. Naʻá ku ʻiloʻi kuo pau ke u foki ki he ʻOtuá—he ko ia pē te u maʻu mei ai ʻa e fiefia moʻoní pe ongoʻi nongá. Ka neongo ia, naʻe ngali fuʻu faingataʻa moʻoni ʻa hono kamataʻi ʻa e fononga ke foki kiate Iá. Naʻá ku fakaʻamu ke u hoko ko e tokotaha ʻi he taʻu ʻe nima kuohilí, ʻa e tokotaha naʻá ne maʻu ha faʻahinga tui mālohi peheé, ka naʻá ku ongoʻi puputuʻu.
Naʻá ku fifili pe ʻoku toe ʻi ai nai ha founga ke fai ai ha foki.
Ko e Foki ki he Ongoongoleleí
Naʻe faifai peá u maʻu ha loto-toʻa ke fai leva ia. Naʻe ngali fuʻu faingataʻa ke u fakahoko tokotaha pē ʻa e meʻá ni, ka naʻá ku manatuʻi naʻe ʻikai ke u tuenoa. ʻOku pehē ʻe he Teutalōnome 31:6, “Ke ke mālohi peá ke loto-toʻa, ʻoua naʻá ke lilika, pea ʻoua naʻá ke manavahē … : he ko [e ʻEiki] ko ho ʻOtuá, ko ia ia ʻokú mo ō mo koé; ʻe ʻikai te ne fakatukutukuʻi koe, pe liʻaki koe.”
Ko e taimi pē naʻá ku fakakaukau ai ke u toe tafoki kia Sīsū Kalaisí, naʻe hokohoko atu hono tataki au ʻe he ngaahi maná ki he hala ʻo e fuakavá. Koeʻuhí ko e ngaahi fuakava ʻoku tau fai mo e ʻOtuá, kapau te tau fili ke foki kiate Ia pea fakatomala ʻi he loto-moʻoni, te Ne fakaʻapaʻapaʻi mo fakafoʻou ʻa e ngaahi fuakava ko iá mo kitautolu.
Naʻe tokoni ʻeku fanga kiʻi ngāue iiki mo fakamātoato ʻo e fakatomalá ke fakafoʻou au ʻo fakafou ʻia Sīsū Kalaisi. Pea ʻi hono ako ʻa e ngaahi lea ʻo hoku tāpuaki fakapēteliaké, lotu ki heʻeku Tamai Hēvaní, mo fai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa faingofua ko ia ʻokú ne ʻomi kitautolu ke tau ofi ange ai kia Kalaisí, naʻá ku maʻu ha loto-falala ki hono liliu au ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ke u toe lelei angé.
Pea hangē pē ko hono toki vahevahe mai ʻe ʻEletā Teili G. Lenilani ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, “ʻI hoʻo ʻaʻeva ʻi he hala ʻo e fuakavá, mei he papitaisó ki he temipalé pea mo e toenga hoʻo moʻuí, ʻoku ou palōmesi atu ʻa e mālohi ke ke fakafepakiʻi ʻa e ngaahi tōʻonga angamaheni ʻo e māmaní—ʻa e mālohi ke ke ako, mālohi ke ke fakatomala pea fakamaʻa koe, mo e mālohi ke maʻu ʻa e ʻamanaki lelei, nonga, mo e fiefia ʻi hoʻo fehangahangai mo e ngaahi pole ʻo e moʻuí.”
ʻI heʻeku hoko ko ha taha naʻe hē mei he hala ʻo e fuakavá pea foki mai kimui ange, ʻoku ou lava ʻo fakamoʻoni ʻoku moʻoni ʻeni.
Kapau ʻokú ke ongoʻi ʻokú ke fuʻu hē mamaʻo mei he ongoongoleleí ke toe lava ʻo foki mai, ʻoku ʻikai ke moʻoni ia! Naʻá ku ongoʻi puputuʻu foki, ka ʻi hoʻo tokanga taha kia Sīsū Kalaisí, te Ne tataki koe.
Ko e meʻa pē ʻoku fiemaʻu ke ke fakahokó ko e falala kiate Ia.
