LĒSONI 76
Fakamaʻa ʻe Sīsū ʻa e Temipalé
ʻI he taimi failau ʻo e taʻu 30 T.S., naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Sīsū ki Selusalema. Naʻe haʻu ʻa e kakai tokolahi ki he koló ki he Pāsová. Naʻa nau feilaulau ʻaki ʻa e fanga manu ʻi he temipalé, ko e konga ia ʻo e kātoangá. Naʻe haʻu ʻa e kakai ʻe niʻihi mo e fanga manu, ka ko e niʻihi naʻa nau fakatau mai ia ʻi Selusalema.
ʻI he ʻalu ʻa Sīsū ki he temipalé, naʻá ne sio ki he fakatau atu ai ʻe he kakaí ʻa e fanga manú. Naʻa nau fakatupu paʻanga maʻanautolu ʻi he fale faiʻanga lotu ʻo Sihová! Ko e hā ʻa e meʻa naʻe fai ʻe Sīsuú? Naʻá ne ngaohi ha uipi mei he maeá ʻo tuli ʻaki ki tuʻa mei he temipalé ʻa e fanga sipí mo e fanga pulú. Naʻá ne fulihi ʻa e ngaahi tēpile ʻa e kau fetongi paʻangá pea huaʻi ki lalo ʻenau koiní. Naʻe tala ʻe Sīsū ki he faʻahinga naʻe fakatau lupé: ‘ʻAve ʻa e ngaahi meʻá ni mei heni! ʻOua ʻe ʻai ʻa e fale ʻo ʻeku Tamaí ko ha feituʻu pisinisi!’
Naʻe ʻohovale ʻa e kakai ʻi he temipalé ʻi he meʻa naʻe fai ʻe Sīsuú. Naʻe manatuʻi ʻe heʻene kau ākongá ʻa e kikite fekauʻaki mo e Mīsaiá: ‘Te u mamahiʻi lahi ʻa e fale ʻo Sihová.’
Ki mui ai, ʻi he taʻu 33 T.S., naʻe fakamaʻa ʻe Sīsū ʻa e temipalé ko hono tuʻo uá ia. Naʻe ʻikai te ne fakaʻatā ke fakahāhā ʻe ha taha ʻa e taʻefakaʻapaʻapa ki he fale ʻo ʻene Tamaí.
