Kapau te ke fakakaukau ki he hisitōlia ʻo e Siasí ko ha monomono pe tupenu fakatātā, ko e meʻa mātuʻaki mālohi mo fakaʻofoʻofa taha ia kuó u mamata ki aí.

Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku lauiafe e ngaahi talanoa mei he kamataʻanga ʻo e hisitōlia ʻo e Siasí ʻi he Hihifó ʻoku kaunga ki he Kāingalotu faivelenga kuo hoko ʻenau ngaahi feinga ke muimui kia Sīsū Kalaisí mo langa hake e Siasi ʻo e ʻEikí ke faʻu ai ha tupenu fakaʻofoʻofa ʻo e tuí.

Fakakaukau ke kole ki he kau akó ke nau vahevahe e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni mo e moʻoni mei he folofolá ne mei lava ke ne tokoniʻi e kau nofo ko ʻení ke nau fai ha ngaahi fili kehe. (ʻE lava ke kau ʻi he ngaahi sīpingá ʻa e Lea Fakatātā 28:13; 3 Nīfai 12:24–25, 43–44; Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 64:9–11.)

Tuku ha taimi ki he kau akó ke nau fakakaukau ki ai pea hiki e meʻa te nau fai ke kei tauhi mo fakamālohia ʻenau tui kia Sīsū Kalaisi mo ʻEne ongoongoleleí.
