Naʻe ʻIkai Lava ke Nau Tauheleʻi ʻa Sīsū

KOEʻUHI naʻe faiako ʻa Sīsū ʻi he temipalé pea naʻe toki ʻosi ʻene fakahā ki hono ngaahi fili fakalotú ʻa e talanoa fakatātā ʻe tolu ʻa ia naʻe fakaeʻa ai ʻa ʻenau anga-fulikivanú, naʻe ʻita ʻa e kau Fālesí mo nau faʻufaʻu ke nau tauheleʻi ia ke ne leaʻaki ha meʻa ʻa ia ʻe lava ke nau puke ai iá. Naʻa nau fefonotaki mo fekau ʻenau kau ākongá, fakataha mo e kau muimui kia Hēlotá, ke feinga ke tauheleʻi ia.

“Tangataʻeiki,” ko e lea ia ʻa e kau tangatá ni, “ʻoku mau ʻilo ʻokú ke moʻoni koe, pea ʻokú ke ako totonu ʻaki ʻa e hala ʻo e ʻOtuá, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke tokaʻi ha taha, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te ke filifilimānako. Ko ia, ke ke tala mai, Ko e hā hoʻo fakakaukaú? ʻOku ngofua ke tukuhau kia Sisa, pe ʻikai?”

Naʻe ʻikai ke kākaaʻi ʻa Sīsū ʻe he fakahekeheké. Naʻá ne ʻilo kapau te ne pehē, ‘ʻIkai, ʻoku ʻikai ke fakalao pe totonu ke totongi ʻa e tukuhau ko ʻení,’ ʻe halaia ai ia ki he fakatupu angatuʻu ki he puleʻanga Lomá. Ka ʻo kapau te ne pehē, ‘ʻIo, ʻoku totonu ke mou totongi ʻa e tukuhau ko ʻení,’ ko e kau Siú, ʻa ia naʻa nau fehiʻa ki heʻenau moʻulaloa ki he kau Lomá, te nau fehiʻa kiate ia. Ko ia naʻá ne tali: “ʻA e kau mālualoi, ko e hā ʻoku mou ʻahiʻahiʻi ai aú? Fakaʻaliʻali mai ʻa e paʻanga tukuhaú.”

Pea ʻi heʻenau ʻomai iá, naʻá ne ʻeke: “Ko e fofonga ʻena mo e hingoa ʻo hai?”

“ʻO Sisa,” ko ʻenau talí ia.

“Peʻi ʻoange kia Sisa ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻa Sisa, pea ki he ʻOtuá ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻa e ʻOtuá.” ʻI he fanongo ʻa e kau tangatá ni ki he tali mālie pehē ʻa Sīsuú, naʻa nau ofo. Pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu meiate ia.

ʻI he vakai ki he taʻemalava ʻa e kau Fālesí ke fai ha meʻa ke tukuakiʻi ʻaki ʻa Sīsuú, ko e kau Sātusí, ʻa ia naʻa nau pehē ʻoku ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha toetuʻú, naʻa nau ʻunuʻunu atu kiate ia ʻo nau ʻeke: “Tangataʻeiki, naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese, ‘Kapau ʻe pekia ha tangata ʻo ʻikai haʻane fānau, pea ke mali hono tokouá mo e finemotuʻá, ʻo ne fakatupu ha hako ki hono tokouá.’ Pea ko ʻeni, naʻe nofo mo kimautolu ha tuʻunga meʻa ʻe toko fitu, ko e tautehina; pea mali ʻa e ʻuluakí ʻo pekia, pea ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai hano hakó naʻá ne tuku hake hono finemotuʻá ki hono tehiná. Pehē foki ʻa hono toko uá, mo hono toko tolú, kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻa e toko fitú. Pea toki pekia ki mui ʻa e fefiné. Pea ʻi he toetuʻú, te ne hoko ko e uaifi ʻo hai ʻi he toko fitú? He naʻa nau maʻu ia kotoa pē.”

ʻI he talí naʻe pehē ʻe Sīsū: “ʻIkai ko hono ʻuhinga ia ʻoku mou hē aí, ko e ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻa e Tohitapú, kaeʻumaʻā ʻa e māfimafi ʻo e ʻOtuá? He ka toetuʻu leva ʻa e kakaí mei he pekiá, ʻe ʻikai ha maʻu uaifi, pe ha maʻu husepāniti, ka te nau hangē ko e kau ʻāngelo ʻi hēvaní. Ka ko e meʻa ki he pekiá, ʻa ʻenau toetuʻú, naʻe ʻikai te mou lau koā ʻi he tohi ʻa Mōsese ʻi he vahe ʻoku kau ki he talatalaʻāmoá, ʻa e folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko au ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻĒpalahame, mo e ʻOtua ʻo ʻAisake, mo e ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope’? ʻOku ʻikai ko e ʻOtua ia ʻo e mate, ka ʻo e moʻui. ʻOku mou hē lahi.”

Naʻe toe ofo ʻa e fuʻu kakaí ʻi he tali ʻa Sīsuú. Naʻa mo e niʻihi ʻo e kau sikalaipé naʻa nau pehē: “Tangataʻeiki, kuo mālō hoʻo leá.”

Pea ʻi he sio ʻa e kau Fālesí kuo ʻai ʻe Sīsū ʻa e kau Sātusí ʻo nau fakalongolongó, naʻa nau haʻu fakataha kiate ia. Ke hoko atu ʻa hono ʻahiʻahiʻí, naʻe ʻeke ʻe he toko taha ʻo kinautolu ko ha sikalaipe: “Tangataʻeiki, ko e faʻahinga tuʻutuʻuni fē ʻi he Laó ʻoku mamafa tahá?”

Naʻe tali ʻe Sīsū: “Ko e lahi ʻeni ʻi he ngaahi fekau kotoa pē, ‘Fanongo, ʻe ʻIsileli, ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtuá ko Sihova ʻoku taha pē, pea ke ʻofa kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtuá ʻaki ho lotó kotoa, pe mo ho laumālié kotoa, mo ho ʻatamaí kotoa, mo ho mālohí kotoa.’ Pea ko hono uá ʻoku tatau mo ia, ‘Ke ke ʻofa ki ho kaungāʻapí ʻo hangē pē ko koé.’ ʻOku ʻikai ha fekau ʻe lahi hake ki he ongo fekaú ni.” Ko hono moʻoní, naʻe tānaki atu ʻe Sīsū: “Ko e ongo tuʻutuʻuni ko ʻení ʻe ua ʻoku tautau ki ai ʻa e Laó kotoa, mo e Tohi Palōfitá.”

“Mālō, Tangataʻeiki, moʻoni hoʻo laú,” ko e loto-tatau ia ki ai ha sikalaipe. “ʻOku Taha pē ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai hano ua ʻo Ia, pea ko ʻete ʻofa kiate ia ʻaki ʻa e kotoa ʻo hoto lotó, mo e kotoa ʻo hoto ʻatamaí, mo e kotoa ʻo hoto iví, pea mo ʻete ʻofa ki hoto kaungāʻapí ʻo hangē ko ʻete ʻofa kiate kitá, ʻoku hulu noa pē ia ʻi he ʻoatu ʻo e ngaahi feilaulau liʻaki pe ko e ngaahi ʻinasi.”

ʻI he lāuʻilo ki he fakapotopoto ʻa e tali ʻa e sikalaipé, naʻe tala ange ʻe Sīsū kiate ia: “ʻOku ʻikai te ke mamaʻo koe mei he puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá.”

Kuo ʻaho ʻeni ʻe tolu​—ko e Sāpate, Mōnite, mo e Tūsite​—naʻe faiako ai ʻa Sīsū ʻi he temipalé. Naʻe fanongo fiefia kiate ia ʻa e kakaí, ka naʻe loto ʻa e kau taki lotú ke tāmateʻi ia, ka naʻe iku pē ko e koto kula noa ʻenau ngaahi feingá. Mātiu 22:​15-40; Maake 12:​13-34; Luke 20:​20-40.

▪ Ko e hā ʻa e fefonotaki naʻe fai ʻe he kau Fālesí ke nau tauheleʻiʻaki ʻa Sīsuú, pea ko e hā hano ola ʻo kapau naʻá ne fai ha tali ʻio pe ʻikai?

▪ Naʻe anga-fēfē hono toe fakataʻeʻaongaʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa e ngaahi feinga ʻa e kau Sātusí ke tauheleʻi iá?

▪ Ko e hā mo ha toe feinga ʻa e kau Fālesí ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻa Sīsuú, pea ko e hā ʻa e meʻa naʻe hokó?

▪ Lolotonga ʻa ʻene ngāue fakafaifekau fakaʻosi ʻi Selusalemá, ko e ʻaho ʻe fiha naʻe faiako ai ʻa Sīsū ʻi he temipalé, pea ko e hā hono olá?
