Mahalo kuó ke fakakaukau ki ha ngaahi ngāue hangē ko hono fakatupulaki hoʻo ako folofolá, fekumi ʻi he faʻa lotu ki ha fakahinohino mei he Tamai Hēvaní ʻi hoʻo ngaahi fili fakaʻahó, pe feinga faivelenga ange ke tauhi ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ke hoko ko ho takaua maʻu pē.

Akoako fakatatau ʻa e ngaahi veesi kehe mei he fakamatala ko ʻení

ʻEta 6:4. ʻOku ʻuhinga ki he hā ʻa e pehē naʻe tuku atu ʻe he kau Sēletí ʻenau moʻuí ki he ʻOtuá?

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe ʻEletā L. Toti Patisei ʻo e Kau Fitungofulú:

ʻEletā L. Todd Budge

ʻOku lekooti fekauʻaki mo e kau Sēletí ʻo pehē “naʻa nau heka leva ki honau ngaahi vaká … ʻo tuku folau atu ki tahi, ʻo tuku atu ʻa ʻenau moʻuí ki he ʻEiki ko honau ʻOtuá” [ʻEta 6:4; tānaki atu hono fakamamafaʻí]. ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻa e tuku atú ke fakafalala pe ke tukulolo. Naʻe ʻikai heka ʻa e kau Sēletí ki he ngaahi vaka lafalafá koeʻuhí ne nau ʻilo pau ʻa e anga ʻo ʻenau fonongá. Ne nau heká koeʻuhí he naʻa nau ako ke falala ki he mālohi, lelei, mo e ʻaloʻofa ʻa e ʻEikí, pea ne nau loto-fiemālie ai ke tukulolo kinautolu mo ha ngaahi veiveiua pe ilifia ki he ʻEikí. (L. Todd Budge, “Falala Maʻu Pē mo Vilitaki,” Ensign pe Liahona, Nōvema 2019, 47)

ʻEta 6:5–7. ʻE lava fēfē ke maluʻi au lolotonga ʻa e ngaahi ʻahiʻahi mo e ngaahi faingataʻa ʻoku ou fehangahangai mo ia ʻi he moʻuí?

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Palesiteni Sēmisi E. Fausi (1920–2007) ʻo e Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí ʻo pehē:

Palesiteni James E. Faust

ʻOku tau fehangahangai kotoa pē mo ha ngaahi matangi mālohi ʻo e koví mo e ngaahi peau ʻo e faingataʻá ʻo ʻikai toe fuʻu kehe ia mo e tūkunga naʻe fehangahangai mo e kau Sēletí ʻi heʻenau fononga ki he fonua ʻo e talaʻofá. Naʻe felīlīʻaki kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi peau ʻo e tahí pea “tuʻo lahi ʻenau ngalo hifo ʻi he ngaahi loloto ʻo e tahí, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi fuʻu peau lalahi naʻe lōmakiʻi ʻa kinautolú, pea mo e ngaahi fuʻu afā lalahi mo fakamanavahē ʻa ia naʻe fakatupu ʻe hono fuʻu mālohi ʻo e matangí” (ʻEta 6:6). Ka naʻe maluʻi kinautolu koeʻuhí “ʻi heʻenau ngalo hifo ʻi he moaná naʻe ʻikai ha vai ʻe faʻa maumauʻi ʻa kinautolu, he naʻe malu ʻa honau ngaahi vaká ʻo hangē ko ha ipú” (ʻEta 6:7). ʻOku ʻi ai ha ngaahi vaka ʻi hotau kuongá ni ʻoku nau maluʻi kitautolu mei he ngaahi faingataʻa fakalaumālie fakalilifú ni, pea ko hotau ngaahi temipalé, ʻapí, kōlomú, uōtí, mo e siteikí ia. (James E. Faust, “We Believe in You!,” New Era, Oct. 2006, 8–9)
