Naʻe ʻoange ʻe he ʻOtuá kia ʻIlaisa ʻa e meʻa naʻá ne kolé? ʻOku pehē ʻe he Tohi Tapú: “ʻI heʻena ōō atu pe mo talanoa, ʻiloange, ko e saliote afi ena mo e fanga hoosi afi, ʻo fakamavae kinaua; pea naʻe ʻohake ʻa Ilaisia ʻe he ʻahiohio ki he langi. Pea sio ki ai ʻa Ilaisa.”a Ko e tali ia ʻa Sihova ki he kole ʻa ʻIlaisá. Naʻe sio ʻa ʻIlaisa ki hono ʻave ʻa ʻIlaisiā meiate iá, maʻu ʻa e ʻinasi lōua ʻo e laumālie ʻo ʻIlaisiaá, pea hoko ko e palōfita ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻo fetongi ia.—2 Tuʻi 2:11-14.

Ka ʻoku tau kei maʻu ʻa e fakamoʻoni māʻalaʻala ʻoku ngāueʻaki ʻe he ʻOtuá hono mālohi lahí ke tokoniʻi kitautolu ke tau fakapapauʻi ʻe fakahoko hono finangaló. Pea ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau sio ai ʻoku tāpuakiʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa e konga fakaemāmani ʻo ʻene kautahá, ʻoku hangē ia ʻoku tau sio ki heʻene saliote fakalangí ʻoku ngaʻunu ki muʻa.—ʻIsi. 10:9-13.
