Ko Koe ko e Kalaisí

ʻOku ʻIkai Faʻa Tohi ʻa e Ngaahi Meʻa Naʻá Ne Lotuʻí, tā fakatātaaʻi ʻe Casey Childs

ʻI he kalasi fā homa foha ko ʻĪlaí, naʻe fokotuʻutuʻu heʻene kalasí ha puleʻanga fakangalingali ʻa ia naʻe fili ai ia ʻe hono toʻú ke hoko ko e fakamaau ʻi he kalasí. ʻI ha ʻaho ʻe taha, naʻe ʻaʻahi mai ha fakamaau moʻoni mei he Fakamaauʻanga ʻIutā Vāhenga Hono Uá, naʻá ne fakatui hono pulupulu fakamāú ʻia ʻĪlai, peá ne fakafuakavaʻi leva ia ki he lakanga ʻi [heʻenau] kalasí. Naʻe fakatupu ʻe he meʻá ni ha vēkeveke ʻi he loto kei siʻi ʻo ʻĪlaí ke ne mahuʻingaʻia ʻi he ako laó pea mo e Tokotaha Fokotuʻu Fonó, ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi.

Hili ha taʻu lahi ʻo e feinga faivelengá, naʻe maʻu ʻe ʻĪlai ha fakaafe ke ʻinitaviu mo e taha ʻo e ngaahi ʻapiako lao naʻá ne fili ki aí. Naʻá ne talamai, “… Ko e fehuʻi fakaʻosí, ‘ʻOkú ke maʻu mei fē ʻa e founga fakapapauʻi ʻo e meʻa ʻoku totonú mo halá?’ … Naʻá ku talaange kapau ʻe tauhi ʻa e faʻahinga kotoa ʻo e tangatá ki he ngaahi akonaki ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi ʻi he Malanga ʻi he Moʻungá, ʻe hoko ʻa e māmaní ko ha feituʻu lelei mo melino ange.” Naʻe ʻosi leva ʻa e ʻinitaviú, peá ne fakakaukau pē, “Ko e ʻosi ē ʻeku ngaahi fakaʻānaua heʻeku kei siʻí. ʻOku ʻikai ha taha ia ʻi he ako fakaʻatamaí ʻe fie fanongo kau kia Sīsū Kalaisi.”

Hili ha uike ʻe ua mei ai, naʻe tali ʻa ʻĪlai ke hū fakataha mo ha sikolasipi. Kimuʻa pea fakapapauʻi ʻe huú, naʻa mau ʻaʻahi ki he ʻapiakó. … Ko e fakaʻohovalé, ʻi heʻemau lue atu ʻi he laipeli fakaʻofoʻofá mo e fakafaletolo masaní, naʻa mau sio ki he ngaahi ʻulungaanga mei he Malanga ʻi he Moʻungá naʻe tā ʻi ha ʻū fuka mo tohitongi ʻi he maká.

Ko e Malanga ʻi he Moʻungá ʻa e malanga maʻongoʻonga taha ia kuo faifaiange pea fakahokó, he ʻoku foʻou hono ngaahi akonakí. ʻOku ʻikai ha toe malanga te ne lava ʻo tokoni ke mahino lelei ange kiate kitautolu ʻa e tōʻonga ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻa Hono ngaahi ʻulungaanga fakalangí, pea mo ʻetau taumuʻa taupotu taha ke hoko ʻo hangē ko Iá. …

ʻOku fiemaʻu ke tau fakaulo ʻa e Maama ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ki he tapa kotoa pē ʻo ʻetau moʻuí. …
