Maʻu ʻa e Mahino ki he Kau Palōfita ʻa e ʻEikí

Kuó ke ongoʻi fēfē nai ʻi haʻo fanongo ki hano fakahaaʻi ʻe he kakaí ha ngaahi hohaʻa pe fakaanga fekauʻaki mo e kau palōfitá? ʻI he tuʻu ʻa Samuela ko e tangata Leimaná ʻi he funga ʻaá ʻo kalanga ki he kakaí ke fakatomalá, naʻa nau fakahoko ha ngaahi tali kehekehe ki heʻene ngaahi leá. ʻOku aʻusia ʻe he kakaí ha ngaahi tali tatau ki he kau palōfita ʻi hotau kuongá. ʻE lava ke tokoni atu ʻa e lēsoni ko ʻení ke mahino kiate koe ʻa e fatongia ʻo e kau palōfitá mo e founga te nau lava ai ʻo tokoniʻi kitautolú.

Fakaʻaongaʻi ha kiʻi taimi ke fakalaulauloto ai ki he meʻa kuó ke ʻosi ako mo ʻilo fekauʻaki mo e kau palōfitá, ʻa ia ʻe lava ʻo tokoni ke ke tui ai mo e niʻihi kehé ʻoku ui kinautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá. Hangē ko ʻení, mahalo naʻá ke hiki ha lisi ʻo e ngaahi moʻoni fekauʻaki mo e kau palōfitá ʻi hoʻo ako fekauʻaki mo Nīfai ʻi he Hilamani 7–10.

ʻI he Hilamani 13, naʻe fekauʻi atu ʻe he ʻEikí mo ha palōfita ʻe taha, ko Samuela ko e tangata Leimaná. Ko e lēsoni ko ʻení ko ha vakai fakalūkufua ia ki heʻene ngaahi akonakí (vakai, Hilamani 13–16). ʻI hoʻo akó, ʻe lava ke ke tānaki atu mo ha ngaahi meʻa ki hoʻo lisi ʻo e ngaahi moʻoni fekauʻaki mo e kau palōfitá. Fekumi ki ha ngaahi fakakaukau ʻe ala tokoni ki ha taha ʻoku faingataʻaʻia ke tui.

Ko e malanga ʻa Samuela ki he kau Nīfaí

Lau ʻa e Hilamani 13:1–7; 14:9, ʻo kumi ʻa e meʻa ʻoku makehe kiate koe fekauʻaki mo Samuelá.

• Ko e hā naʻá ke ako fekauʻaki mo e kau palōfitá mei he sīpinga ʻa Samuelá? (Fakakaukau ke tānaki ki hoʻo lisí ha ngaahi moʻoni pē naʻá ke maʻu.)

Ko e taha ʻo e ngaahi moʻoni mahalo kuó ke ʻiló ko e pōpoaki ʻa ha palōfita ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻana ia; ʻoku haʻu ia mei he ʻEikí. Fakakaukau ke fakaʻilongaʻi ʻa e ngaahi kupuʻi lea ʻi he Hilamani 13:5, 7; 14:9 ʻokú ne poupouʻi ʻa e foʻi moʻoni ko ʻení. Mahalo te ke fiemaʻu foki ke lau ʻa e Hilamani 7:29 mo e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 1:38; 21:4–5 ko ha ngaahi potufolofola fakafekauʻaki pea fakafehokotaki kinautolu ki he ngaahi veesi ʻi he Hilamani 13.

• Ko e hā ha fakamoʻoni naʻá ke fakatokangaʻi naʻe ʻia Samuela ʻa e ʻOtuá?

Neongo ʻoku ʻikai maluʻi kotoa ʻa e kau palōfitá ʻi he foungá ni, ka ʻoku maluʻi ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻEne kau palōfitá kae ʻoua kuo lava ʻenau ngāué (vakai, Mōsaia 13:1–4; Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 122:9).
