“ʻI ha taʻu hokohoko ʻe nima, ʻe ʻi ai ʻa e ngaahi tafaʻaki ʻo ʻAfilika te nau tofanga ʻi he laʻalaʻā lahi.”—Ongoongo ʻa e UN, ʻAokosi 26, 2022.
“ʻOku ʻi ai ha fakatokanga ki he vahe tolu ʻe ua ʻo ʻIulope te nau tofanga ʻi ha laʻalaʻā, ʻa ia ʻoku ngalingali ko e kovi taha ia ʻe hoko ʻi he taʻu ʻe 500 kuo maliu atú.”—Ongoongo BBC, ʻAokosi 23, 2022.
Ko e kau mataotao tokolahi ʻoku nau tomuʻa tala ʻe hokohoko atu ʻa e ngaahi laʻalaʻā peheé pea ʻe aʻu ʻo toe kovi ange. ʻOku ʻi ai koā ha ʻamanaki ki ha kahaʻu lelei ange? Ko e hā ʻa e lau ʻa e Tohi Tapú?
Laʻalaʻaá mo e kikite ʻi he Tohi Tapú
Naʻe tomuʻa tala ʻe he Tohi Tapú fekauʻaki mo hotau ʻahó:
“ʻI he feituʻu ki he feituʻu ʻe ʻi ai ʻa e ngaahi nounou fakameʻatokoni.”—Luke 21:11.
Ko e laʻalaʻaá ʻoku faʻa iku atu ki he ngaahi nounou fakameʻatokoni. Ko e ngaahi nounou fakameʻatokoni peheé, pea mo e faingataʻaʻia mo e mate tupu mei aí, ʻoku fakahoko ai ʻa e kikite ʻi he Tohi Tapú.—Fakahā 6:6, 8.
ʻUhinga ʻoku ʻalu ke toe kovi ange ai ʻa e laʻalaʻaá
ʻOku fakahaaʻi mai ʻe he Tohi Tapú ha ʻuhinga mahuʻinga ki he ʻalu ke toe kovi ange ʻa e laʻalaʻaá. ʻOku pehē ai:
“ʻOku ʻikai ʻi he tangata ʻoku ʻaʻevá ke ne tataki ʻa ʻene laká.”—Selemaia 10:23.
ʻOku ʻuhinga ení ko e faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá heʻikai lavameʻa ʻenau “tataki ʻa [ʻenau] laká,” pe pule pē kiate kinautolu. Ko ʻenau ngaahi faituʻutuʻuni halá ʻoku faʻa fakatupunga ai ʻa e laʻalaʻaá mo e honge vai.
Ko e tokolahi taha ʻo e kau faisaienisí ʻoku nau loto-tatau ko e ngāue ʻa e tangatá kuó ne fakatupunga ʻa e māfana ʻa e ʻeá, ʻo iku atu ki he tupulaki ʻa e laʻalaʻaá takatakai he māmaní.
Ko e mānumanú mo e ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni sio-nounoú ʻoku taki atu ki he tā ʻa e ʻuluʻakaú, ʻuliʻi ʻa e ʻātakaí pea mo hono ngāuehalaʻaki ʻa e ngaahi koloa fakaenatulá, ʻo ʻai ai ke ʻi he tuʻunga fakatuʻutāmaki ʻa e maʻuʻanga vaí.
