Maʻu ʻe he Kau Ākongá ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní

ʻI he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu hili ʻa e foki ʻa Sīsū ki hēvaní, naʻe maʻu ai ʻe heʻene kau ākongá ʻa e laumālie māʻoniʻoní. Ko e Penitekosi ia ʻi he 33 T.S., pea naʻe omi ʻa e kakaí mei he feituʻu kehekehe ki Selusalema ke kātoangaʻi ia. Naʻe fakatahataha ʻa e toko 120 nai ʻo e kau ākonga ʻa Sīsuú ʻi ha loki ʻi ʻolunga ʻi ha fale. Fakafokifā pē, naʻe hoko ha meʻa fakaofo. Naʻe hā ha meʻa hangē ha ulo ʻo ha afí ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ʻulu ʻo e ākonga taki taha, pea naʻa nau kamata kotoa ke lea ʻi he ngaahi lea kehekehe. Naʻe ongo ha ʻuʻulu longoaʻa ʻi he falé hangē ha matangí.

Ko e kau ʻaʻahi naʻe haʻu mei he ngaahi fonuá ki Selusalemá naʻa nau fanongo ki he ʻuʻulú pea nau lele ki he falé ke sio pe ko e hā ʻa e meʻa ʻoku hokó. Naʻa nau ʻohovale ʻi heʻenau fanongo ki he lea ʻa e kau ākongá ʻi he ngaahi lea kehekehe ko ení. Naʻa nau pehē: ‘Ka ko e kakaí ni ko ʻenau haʻú mei Kāleli. ʻOku anga-fēfē ʻenau malava ke lea ʻi heʻetau ngaahi leá?’

Naʻe tuʻu leva ʻa Pita mo e kau ʻapositoló ʻi muʻa ʻi he fuʻu kakaí. Naʻe tala ʻe Pita ki he kakaí ʻa hono tāmateʻi ʻa Sīsuú pea mo hono fokotuʻu hake ia ʻe Sihova mei he maté. Naʻe pehē ʻe Pita: ‘ʻI he taimi ní ʻoku ʻi hēvani ʻa Sīsū ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu ʻo e ʻOtuá, pea kuó ne lilingi hifo ʻa e laumālie māʻoniʻoni naʻe talaʻofa maí. Ko e ʻuhinga ia ʻoku mou sio ai mo fanongo ʻi he ngaahi mana ko ení.’

Naʻe maongo lahi ki he kakaí ʻa e lea ʻa Pitá, pea nau ʻeke: “Ko e hā te mau faí?” Naʻá ne tala ange: ‘Fakatomala ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi angahalá pea papitaiso ʻi he huafa ʻo Sīsuú. Te mou maʻu foki ʻa e meʻaʻofa ko e laumālie māʻoniʻoní.’ ʻI he ʻaho ko iá, naʻe papitaiso ʻa e kakai ʻe toko 3,000 nai. Talu mei ai mo e kamata ke tupu vave ʻo tokolahi ʻaupito ʻa e kau ākongá ʻi Selusalema. ʻI he tokoni ʻa e laumālie māʻoniʻoní, naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻe he kau ʻapositoló ʻa e ngaahi fakatahaʻanga lahi ange koeʻuhi ke lava ʻo nau akoʻi ki he kau ākongá ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kotoa naʻe fekauʻi ʻe Sīsū kiate kinautolú.
