Naʻe tali moʻoni ʻe Sihova ʻa e lotu ko ia ʻa hono ʻAlo ʻofaʻangá. ʻOku fakamoʻoniʻi ʻe he Fakamanatú ʻo laka ange ia ʻi ha toe fakataha kehe ko e Kau Fakamoʻoni ʻa Sihová ʻoku nau fāʻūtaha. ʻI he ʻaho ko iá, ʻoku fakatahataha fakataha ai ʻa e kakai ʻe laui miliona mei he fonua kehekehe mo e lanu kehekehe takatakai ʻi he māmaní ʻo nau fakahāhā ʻoku nau tui naʻe fekauʻi mai ʻe Sihova ʻa hono ʻAló. ʻI he ngaahi feituʻu ʻe niʻihi, ʻoku ngalikehe ʻaupito ke fakatahataha fakalotu ai ha kakai ʻo e matakali kehekehe, pe kapau ʻoku pehē, ʻoku fakakaukau ʻa e niʻihi ia ʻoku ʻikai totonu ʻa e meʻá ni.

Naʻá ne tala kia ʻIsikeli ke ne toʻo ha vaʻakau ʻe ua, ko e vaʻakau ʻe taha “ki Siuta” pea ko e taha “kia Siosifa,” pea fakatahaʻi kinaua ke na hoko ʻo taha. (Lau ʻa e ʻIsikeli 37:15-17.) Ko e “Fehuʻi mei he Kau Lautohí” naʻe pulusi ʻi he Taua Leʻo ʻo Siulai 2016 naʻe fakamatala ai: “Naʻe tomuʻa tala ʻe Sihova ʻo fakafou ʻi heʻene palōfita ko ʻIsikelí ʻe foki hono kakaí ki he Fonua ʻo e Talaʻofá pea te nau hoko ʻo toe fāʻūtaha ko e puleʻanga pē taha. ʻI he kikite ko iá naʻe toe tomuʻa tala ai fekauʻaki mo e faʻahinga ʻoku nau lotu ki he ʻOtuá lolotonga ʻa e ngaahi ʻaho fakaʻosí te nau fāʻūtaha ko e kakai pē taha.”
9. ʻI he taʻu taki taha ʻi he Fakamanatú, ʻoku anga-fēfē ʻetau sio ai ki he fāʻūtaha naʻe tomuʻa tala ʻi he kikite ʻa ʻIsikelí?

(ʻIsi. 37:19) Naʻá ne ʻai ʻa e kau paní mo e “fanga sipi kehe” ke nau hoko ko e “tākanga pē ʻe taha.” (Sione 10:16; Sāk. 8:23) ʻI he ʻahó ni, ko e ongo kulupú fakatouʻosi ʻokú na fāʻūtaha pea tauhi fakataha kia Sihova. Pea ʻokú na maʻu ha Tuʻi pē ʻe taha, ko Sīsū Kalaisi, ʻa ia ʻoku ui ʻi he kikite ʻa ʻIsikelí ko e ‘sevāniti ʻa e ʻOtuá ko Tēvita’. (ʻIsi. 37:24, 25) ʻI he taʻu taki taha ʻi he Fakamanatú, ʻi heʻetau fakatahataha ke fakamanatu ʻa e pekia ʻa Sīsuú, ʻoku tau sio ai ki he fāʻūtaha ʻa e ongo kulupú ni hangē ko ia naʻe tomuʻa tala fakafou ʻia ʻIsikelí. Ka ko e hā ʻe lava ke fai ʻe he tokotaha taki taha ʻo kitautolú ke tauhi maʻu mo pouaki ʻa e fāʻūtaha ʻa e kakai ʻa e ʻOtuá?
