 2. Naʻe anga-fēfē hono fakaeʻa ʻe Sihova hono lāngilangí ʻi he Moʻunga Sainaí? (Sio foki ki he fakatātā.)

Naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ha fakahāhā tuʻu-ki-muʻa ʻo hono lāngilangí ʻi ha taimi nounou pē hili hono fakahaofi ʻa e puleʻanga ʻo ʻIsilelí mei he nofo pōpula ʻi ʻIsipité. Sioloto atu ki he meʻa ʻoku hokó: Ko e laui miliona ʻo e kau ʻIsilelí ʻoku nau fakatahataha ʻi he veʻe Moʻunga Sainaí ke nau fetaulaki mo honau ʻOtuá. ʻOku kāpui ʻe ha fuʻu konga ʻao fakapōpōʻuli ʻa e moʻungá.

(ʻEki. 19:​16-18; 24:17; Saame 68:8) Fakaʻuta atu ki he ofoofo ʻa e kau ʻIsileli ko iá ʻi he taimi naʻe fakaeʻa ai ʻe Sihova ʻa e fakahāhā mālohi ko eni ʻo hono lāngilangí.

 3. Ko e hā ʻa e meʻa ʻoku ʻuhinga ki ai ʻa hono ʻoange kia Sihova ʻa e lāngilangí?

³ Kae fēfē ʻa e faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá? ʻE lava moʻoni ke tau ʻave ʻa e lāngilangí kia Sihova? ʻIo, te tau lava. Ko e founga ʻe taha ʻoku tau ʻoange ai kia Sihova ʻa e lāngilangí ko e talanoa ki he niʻihi kehé fekauʻaki mo hono mālohi fakaofó pea mo hono ngaahi ʻulungaanga fakalotomāfaná. ʻOku tau toe fakalāngilangiʻi ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻi heʻetau ʻoange kiate ia ʻa e fakahīkihiki ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku tau fakahoko ʻi hono mālohí. (ʻAi. 26:12) Ko Tuʻi Tēvita ko ha faʻifaʻitakiʻanga tuʻu-ki-muʻa ia ʻo ha tokotaha naʻá ne ʻoange ʻa e lāngilangí kia Sihova. ʻI ha lotu naʻe fai ʻe Tēvita ʻi he ʻao ʻo e fakatahaʻanga ʻo ʻIsilelí, naʻá ne pehē ki he ʻOtuá: “ʻOku ʻoʻou, ʻe Sihova, ʻa e lahí mo e mālohí pea mo e fakaʻofoʻofá mo e lāngilangí pea mo e ngeiá, he ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻi hēvani pea ʻi he māmaní ʻoku ʻoʻou ia.” ʻI he fakaʻosi ʻa e lotu ʻa Tēvitá, “naʻe fakahīkihikiʻi ʻe he kotoa ʻo e fakatahaʻangá ʻa Sihova.”—1 Kal. 29:​11, 20.

 4. Naʻe anga-fēfē hono ʻoange ʻe Sīsū ʻa e lāngilangí kia Sihová?

⁴ ʻI he ʻi māmani ʻa Sīsuú, naʻá ne fakalāngilangiʻi ʻene Tamaí ʻaki ʻene fakahaaʻi ko Ia ʻa e Matavai ʻo ʻene ngaahi maná. (Mk. 5:​18-20) Naʻe toe ʻoange foki ʻe Sīsū ʻa e lāngilangí kia Sihova ʻi he founga naʻá ne lea ai fekauʻaki mo ʻene Tamaí pea mo e anga ʻene fakafeangai ki he niʻihi kehé. ʻI he taimi ʻe taha, naʻe faiako ʻa Sīsū ʻi ha sinakoke. Naʻe kau ʻi he kau fanongo ko iá ha fefine ʻa ia naʻe uluisino ai ha tēmeniō ʻi he taʻu ʻe 18. Naʻe ʻai ia ʻe he tēmenioó ke ne pikoua koeʻuhí ke ʻikai ʻaupito malava ke ne tuʻu hangatonu hake. He meʻa fakamamahi moʻoni ē! ʻI hono ueʻi ʻa Sīsū ʻe he manavaʻofá, naʻá ne fakaofiofi ki he fefiné pea lea anga-fakaalaala kiate ia, ʻo pehē: “Fefine, kuo fakatauʻatāinaʻi koe mei ho puké.” Naʻá ne hili leva hono ongo nimá kiate ia, pea naʻá ne tuʻu hangatonu hake ʻi he taimi pē ko iá ʻo ne “kamata fakalāngilangiʻi ʻa e ʻOtuá,” naʻá ne toe foki ʻo moʻui lelei pea toe maʻu ʻa e ngeia! (Luke 13:​10-13) Ko e fefine ko iá naʻá ne maʻu ha ʻuhinga lelei ke ʻoange kia Sihova ʻa e lāngilangí, pea ʻoku pehē pē mo kitautolu.

KO E HĀ ʻOKÚ NE UEʻI KITAUTOLU KE ʻOANGE KIA SIHOVA ʻA E LĀNGILANGÍ?

 5. Ko e hā ʻa e ngaahi ʻuhinga ʻoku tau maʻu ke fakaʻapaʻapa ai kia Sihová?

⁵ ʻOku tau fakalāngilangiʻi ʻa Sihova koeʻuhí ʻoku tau fakaʻapaʻapa loloto kiate ia. ʻOku tau maʻu ʻa e ngaahi ʻuhinga lahi ke fakaʻapaʻapa kiate ia. Ko Sihová ʻoku māfimafi-aoniu; ʻokú ne maʻu ʻa e mālohi taʻefakangatangata. (Saame 96:​4-7) Ko hono poto kāfakafá ʻoku fakamoʻoniʻi māʻalaʻala ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kuó ne ngaohí. Ko ia ʻa e Matavai mo e Tokotaha-Fakatolonga ʻo ʻetau moʻuí. (Fkh. 4:11) ʻOkú ne mateaki. (Fkh. 15:4) Ko e meʻa kotoa ʻokú ne faí ʻoku lavameʻa, pea ʻokú ne fai maʻu pē ki heʻene ngaahi talaʻofá. (Sios. 23:14) Tā neʻineʻi ke lea ʻa e palōfita ko Selemaiá ʻo fekauʻaki mo Sihova: “ʻI he lotolotonga ʻo e kau poto kotoa ʻo e ngaahi puleʻangá pea ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo honau ngaahi puleʻangá kotoa, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito ha taha ʻe hangē ko koé”! (Sel. 10:​6, 7) Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku tau maʻu ʻa e ngaahi ʻuhinga lelei ke fakaʻapaʻapa ki heʻetau Tamai fakahēvaní. Ka ʻoku ʻikai ngata pē hono maʻu ʻe Sihova ʻetau fakaʻapaʻapá—ʻokú ne toe maʻu mo ʻetau ʻofá.

 6. Ko e hā ʻoku tau ʻofa ai kia Sihová?

⁶ ʻOku tau fakalāngilangiʻi ʻa Sihova koeʻuhí ʻoku tau ʻofa lahi kiate ia. Fakakaukau ki ha ngaahi ʻulungaanga ʻe niʻihi ʻo Sihova ʻokú ne ʻai ke tau ʻofa kiate iá. ʻOkú ne faimeesi mo manavaʻofa. (Saame 103:13; ʻAi. 49:15) ʻOkú ne kaungāongoʻi; ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau ongoʻi mamahi aí, ʻokú ne ongoʻi mamahi. (Sāk. 2:8) ʻOkú ne ʻai ke faingofua kiate kitautolu ke ʻunuʻunu ofi kiate ia ko ha Kaumeʻa. (Saame 25:14; Ngā. 17:27) Pea ʻokú ne anga-fakatōkilalo; “ʻokú ne punou hifo ke vakai ki he langí mo e māmaní, ʻo ne hiki hake ʻa e māʻulaló mei he efú.” (Saame 113:​6, 7) Ko e hā ka taʻeloto ai ha taha ke fakalāngilangiʻi hotau ʻOtua lahí?—Saame 86:12.

 7. Ko e hā ʻa e faingamālie makehe ʻoku tau maʻú?

⁷ ʻOku tau fakalāngilangiʻi ʻa Sihova koeʻuhí ʻoku tau loto ke ʻiloʻi ia ʻe he niʻihi kehé. Ko e tokolahi ʻoku ʻikai ke nau ʻilo ʻa e moʻoni fekauʻaki mo Sihová. Ko e hā hono ʻuhingá? Koeʻuhi kuo hanga ʻe Sētane ʻo fakakuihi honau ʻatamaí ʻaki hono fakamafola ʻa e ngaahi loi fakalilifu fekauʻaki mo Ia. (2 Kol. 4:4) Kuo hanga ʻe Sētane ʻo fakatuiʻi ʻa e kakaí ko Sihová ʻoku faisāuni, taʻetokanga, pea ko ia ʻokú ne fakatupunga ʻa e lahi ʻo e faingataʻaʻia ʻa e māmaní. Ka ʻoku tau ʻilo ʻe kitautolu ʻa e moʻoni fekauʻaki mo hotau ʻOtuá! ʻOku tau maʻu ʻa e faingamālie ke fakatonutonu ʻa e maʻuhalá pea ʻoku iku atu ia ki hono ʻave ʻa e lāngilangí kiate ia. (ʻAi. 43:10) Ko e Saame 96 ʻoku fakahangataha ia ki hono ʻoange ʻa e lāngilangí kia Sihová. ʻI heʻetau lāulea ki ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi lea fakamānavaʻi ʻi he saame ko ení, fakakaukau fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi founga ʻa ia te ke ʻoange nai ai kia Sihova ʻa e lāngilangi ʻokú ne tuha moʻoni mo iá.

 8. Ko e hā ʻa e founga ʻe taha ʻe lava ke tau fakalāngilangiʻi ai ʻa Sihová? (Saame 96:​1-3)

⁸ Lau ʻa e Saame 96:​1-3. ʻE lava ke tau fakalāngilangiʻi ʻa Sihova ʻaki ʻa e meʻa ʻoku tau leaʻaki fekauʻaki mo iá. ʻI he ngaahi veesi ko ení, ko e kakai ʻa Sihová ʻoku fakaafeʻi ke nau “hiva kia Sihova,” ke “fakahīkihikiʻi hono huafá,” ke “fanongonongo ʻa e ongoongo lelei ʻo ʻene fakamoʻuí,” pea ke “talaki hono lāngilangí ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e ngaahi puleʻangá.” Ko e ngaahi founga kotoa eni ʻe lava ke tau fakalāngilangiʻi ai ʻetau Tamai fakahēvaní. Ko e kau Siu faitōnungá mo e kau Kalisitiane ʻi he ʻuluaki senitulí naʻe ʻikai ke nau toumoua ke tala ki he niʻihi kehé ʻa e ngaahi meʻa lelei kotoa kuo fai ʻe Sihova maʻa kinautolú pea ke taukapoʻi hono ongoongó.
