Ko e kakai kotoa pē—ʻa e tangata mo e fefine—naʻe fakatupu ia ʻi he tatau ʻo e ʻOtuá. Ko e toko taha fakafoʻituitui kotoa pē ko e foha mo e ʻofefine ia ʻo ha mātuʻa fakalangi, pea ʻi heʻene peheé, ʻoku maʻu ai ʻe he toko taha kotoa pē ha natula fakalangi pea mo ha ikuʻanga pau.

ʻI he maama fakalaumālié, naʻe ʻiloʻi ai mo hū ʻa e ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine fakalaumālié ki he ʻOtua ko ʻenau Tamai Taʻengatá mo nau tali ʻa ʻEne palani ʻe tuʻunga ai ha lava ʻa ʻEne fānaú ʻo maʻu ha sino fakamāmani pea mo ha taukei ʻi he māmaní ke fakalakalaka hake ki he haohaoá mo ʻiloʻi fakapapau ʻa honau ikuʻanga fakalangi ʻi heʻenau tuʻu ko e ʻea hoko ki he moʻui taʻengatá. ʻOku fakangofuaʻi ai ʻe he palani fakalangi ʻo e fiefiá ʻa e feohi fakafāmilí ke tolonga atu ʻo ʻoua naʻa ngata pē ʻi he faʻitoká. ʻOku fakaʻatā foki ʻe he ngaahi ouau mo e ngaahi fuakava toputapu ʻi he ngaahi temipale toputapú ki he toko taha kotoa pē ke ne foki ki he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá pea mo e ngaahi fāmilí ke fakatahaʻi ʻo taʻengata.

ʻOku fekauʻaki ʻa e fuofua fekau naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻOtuá kia ʻĀtama mo ʻIví pea mo e meʻa te na malava ʻi hona tuʻunga fakaemātuʻá, ko e husepāniti mo e uaifí. ʻOku mau fakahā ai heni ʻoku kei tuʻu maʻu pē ʻa e fekau ko ia ʻa e ʻOtuá ki Heʻene fānaú ke nau fanafanau mo fakatokolahi ʻa māmaní. ʻOku mau toe fakahā foki heni kuo ʻosi tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he ʻOtuá ke toki ngāueʻaki pē ʻa e ngaahi mālohi toputapu ʻo e fakatupú ʻe ha tangata mo ha fefine, kuo na ʻosi mali fakalao ko ha husepāniti mo ha uaifi.

ʻOku mau fakahā heni ko e founga ko ia ʻoku fakatupu ai ʻa e moʻui fakamatelié, ko ha tuʻutuʻuni fakalangi ia. ʻOku mau fakamoʻoni atu ki hono haohaoa ʻo e moʻuí pea mo hono mahuʻinga ʻi he palani taʻengata ʻa e ʻOtuá.

ʻOku ʻi ai ha fatongia toputapu ʻo e husepānití mo e uaifí ke na feʻofaʻaki mo fetauhiʻaki pea ki heʻena fānaú foki. He “Ko e fānaú ko ha tofiʻa mei he [ʻEikí]” (Saame 127:3). ʻOku maʻu ʻe he mātuʻá ha fatongia toputapu ke ohi hake ʻa ʻenau fānaú ʻi he ʻofa mo e māʻoniʻoni, mo tokonaki maʻa ʻenau ngaahi fie maʻu fakatuʻasinó mo fakalaumālié, pea hinoiʻi kinautolu ke nau feʻofoʻofani mo fetauhiʻaki, tauhi ʻa e ngaahi fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá, pea hoko ko ha kau tangataʻi fonua tauhi lao ʻi ha feituʻu pē ʻoku nau nofo ai. Kuo pau ke ʻekeʻi mei he husepānití mo e uaifí—ʻa e faʻē mo e tamai—ʻi he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻa e anga ʻo ʻenau fakahoko ʻo e ngaahi fatongiá ni.

Ko e fāmilí ko e tuʻutuʻuni ia ʻa e ʻOtuá. ʻOku mahuʻinga ʻa e mali ʻa e tangatá mo e fefiné ki Heʻene palani taʻengatá. ʻOku maʻu aiʻe he fānaú ha totonu ke fanauʻi kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi haʻi ʻo e nofo malí, pea ke ohi hake kinautolu ʻe ha tamai mo ha faʻē ʻokú na tauhi ʻa e ngaahi fuakava ʻo e malí ʻi he faitōnunga kakato. Ko e fiefia ko ia ʻi he moʻui fakafāmilí ʻoku meimei ke toki aʻusia pē ia ʻi he taimi kuo langa ai ʻa e fāmilí ʻi he ngaahi akonaki ʻa e ʻEiki ko Sīsū Kalaisí. ʻOku faʻu mo pukepuke ʻa e nofo-malí mo e ngaahi fāmili ʻoku fiefiá ʻi he ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻo e tuí, lotú, fakatomalá, faʻa fakamolemolé, fakaʻapaʻapá, ʻofá, manavaʻofá, ngāué, pea mo e ngaahi ʻekitivitī ʻoku fakatupulakí. Tuʻunga ʻi ha palani fakalangi, ʻoku ʻa e ngaahi tamaí ai, ke nau puleʻi honau fāmilí ʻi he ʻofa mo e māʻoniʻoni pea ko honau fatongia ke tokonaki ʻa e ngaahi fie maʻu ʻo e moʻuí pea mo ha maluʻi maʻa honau ngaahi fāmilí. Ko e tefitoʻi fatongia ʻo e ngaahi faʻeé ke lehilehiʻi hake ʻa ʻenau fānaú. ʻI he ngaahi fatongia toputapú ni, ʻoku haʻisia ai ʻa e ngaahi tamaí mo e ngaahi faʻeé ke nau fetokoniʻaki ko ha kaungā-ngāue tuʻunga tatau.

ʻOku mau fakatokanga atu ko e niʻihi fakafoʻituitui ko ia ʻoku nau maumauʻi ʻa e ngaahi fuakava ʻo e anga-maʻá, ʻa kinautolu ʻoku nau ngaohi koviʻi ʻa e malí pe fānaú, pe ʻoku ʻikai ke nau fakahoko honau ngaahi fatongia fakafāmilí, te nau tuʻu ʻi ha ʻaho ʻo fai ha fakamatala ʻi he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá.
