“Hanganaki Leʻo”
(Mātiu 25:1-6) “Pea ko e Puleʻanga ʻo hēvaní ʻe fakatatau nai ia ki ha kau tāupoʻou ʻe toko hongofulu ʻa ia naʻa nau toʻo ʻenau ngaahi māmá pea nau ʻalu atu ke fakafetaulaki ki he tangata malí. 2 Ko e toko nima ʻo kinautolu naʻe vale, pea ko e toko nima naʻe fakapotopoto. 3 He ko e kau tāupoʻou valé naʻa nau toʻo ʻenau ngaahi māmá ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻave ha lolo, 4 ka ko e kau tāupoʻou fakapotopotó naʻa nau ʻave ʻa e lolo ʻi heʻenau ngaahi hiná fakataha mo ʻenau ngaahi māmá. 5 ʻI he tuai mai ʻa e tangata malí, naʻa nau hoko ʻo tulemohe kotoa pea nau mohe. 6 ʻI he tuʻuapō mālié naʻe ongo mai ha kaila: ‘Ko e tangata malí eni! Mou ʻalu atu ʻo fakafetaulaki kiate ia.’
(Mātiu 25:7-10) Pea naʻe tuʻu kotoa hake ʻa e kau tāupoʻou ko iá ʻo teuteu ʻenau ngaahi māmá. 8 Naʻe pehē atu ʻe he kau tāupoʻou valé ki he kau fakapotopotó, ‘ʻOmi haʻamau meʻi lolo mei hoʻomou loló, koeʻuhi kuo mei maha ʻemau ngaahi māmá.’ 9 Naʻe tali mai ʻe he kau fakapotopotó, ʻo pehē: ‘Ko e meʻá pē naʻa ʻikai feʻunga ia kiate kimautolu mo kimoutolu. Ka mou ʻalu atu ki he faʻahinga ʻoku nau fakatau atu iá ʻo fakatau mai ha lolo maʻamoutolu.’ 10 Lolotonga ʻenau ʻalu atu ke fakatau mai iá, kuo haʻu ʻa e tangata malí ia. Ko e kau tāupoʻou ko ia naʻe mateuteú naʻa nau hū fakataha atu mo ia ki he kātoanga kai ʻo e malí, pea naʻe tāpuni leva ʻa e matapaá.
(Mātiu 25:11, 12) Hili atu pē iá, naʻe haʻu foki mo e toenga ʻo e kau tāupoʻoú, ʻo nau pehē, ‘Tangataʻeiki, Tangataʻeiki, fakaava mai muʻa ʻa e matapaá kiate kimautolu!’ 12 ʻI he tali ki aí naʻá ne pehē, ‘Te u tala atu kiate kimoutolu ʻa e moʻoní, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi kimoutolu.’
Keli ki he Makakoloa Fakalaumālie
(Mātiu 25:31-33) “ʻI he haʻu ʻa e Foha ʻo e tangatá ʻi hono lāngilangí, pea haʻu mo ia ʻa e kau ʻāngeló kotoa, te ne nofo hifo leva ʻi hono taloni lāngilangiʻiá. 32 ʻE fakatahataha mai ʻa e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ki hono ʻaó, pea te ne fakamavaheʻi ʻa e kakai ko ē mei hē, ʻo hangē tofu pē ko hono fakamavaheʻi ʻe ha tauhi-sipi ʻa e fanga sipí mei he fanga kosí. 33 Pea te ne tuku ʻa e fanga sipí ʻi hono nima toʻomataʻú, ka ko e fanga kosí ʻi hono toʻohemá.

7 ʻI he ʻahó ni, ʻoku tau mahinoʻi māʻalaʻala ʻa e pealapeli fekauʻaki mo e fanga sipí mo e fanga kosí. ʻOku tau ʻiloʻi ko e “Foha ʻo e tangatá,” pe ko e “Tuʻí,” ko Sīsū. Ko e ‘fanga tokoua’ ʻo e Tuʻí ko e faʻahinga ʻoku pani ʻaki ʻa e laumālie māʻoniʻoní pea te nau pule fakataha ʻi hēvani mo Sīsū. (Loma 8:16, 17) Ko e “fanga sipí” mo e “fanga kosí” ko e kakai mei he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē. ʻE fakamāuʻi kinautolu ʻi he ofi ki he ngataʻanga ʻo e fuʻu mamahi lahí ʻa ia ʻe vavé ni ke kamatá. Pea ʻoku tau ʻiloʻi ʻe fakamāuʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa e kakaí ʻo fakatatau ki he founga ʻenau fakafeangai ki he kau pani ʻa ia ʻoku nau kei ʻi he māmaní. ʻOku tau houngaʻia ʻaupito ʻi hono tokoniʻi kitautolu ʻe Sihova ʻi he faai mai ʻa e ngaahi taʻú ke tau mahinoʻi ʻa e pealapeli ko ení mo e ngaahi pealapeli kehe ʻi he Mātiu vahe 24 mo e 25!
(Mātiu 25:40) ʻI he tali ki aí ʻe pehē ʻe he Tuʻí kiate kinautolu, ‘ʻOku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ko hoʻomou fai ia ki ha taha ʻo e faʻahinga siʻi tahá ni ko hoku fanga tokouá, ko hoʻomou fai ia kiate aú.’
“Ko Hoku Ngaahi Kaumeʻa ʻAkimoutolu”
16 Kapau ʻokú ke ʻamanaki ke moʻui ʻi he māmaní ʻi he malumalu ʻo e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá, ʻe lava fēfē ke ke fakahāhā ʻa hoʻo fakakaumeʻa ki he fanga tokoua ʻo Kalaisí? Tau vakai angé ki he founga pē ʻe tolu. ʻUluakí, ʻaki ʻa e kau ʻaufuatō ʻi he ngāue fakamalangá. Naʻe fekauʻi ʻe Kalaisi ʻa hono fanga tokouá ke nau malangaʻi ʻa e ongoongo leleí ʻi māmani lahi. (Mt. 24:14) Kae kehe, ko e toenga ʻo e fanga tokoua ʻo Kalaisi ʻi he māmaní he ʻaho ní ʻe faingataʻa kia kinautolu ke fua ʻa e fatongia ko iá taʻekau ai ʻa e tokoni ʻa honau takanga ko e fanga sipi kehé. Ko e moʻoni, ko e taimi taki taha ʻoku kau ai ʻa e ngaahi mēmipa ʻo e fanga sipi kehé ʻi he ngāue fakamalangá, ʻoku nau tokoni ai ki he fanga tokoua ʻo Kalaisí ʻi hono fakahoko ʻa ʻenau ngāue toputapú. Ko e kalasi tamaioʻeiki anga-tonu mo potó ʻoku nau houngaʻia lahi ʻi he tōʻonga fakakaumeʻa ko ení, ʻo hangē pē ko Kalaisí.
17 Ko ha founga hono ua ʻoku lava ai ke tokoni ʻa e faʻahinga ko ia ʻi he fanga sipi kehé ki he fanga tokoua ʻo Kalaisí ko e poupou fakapaʻanga ki he ngāue fakamalangá. Naʻe fakalototoʻaʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa hono kau muimuí ke nau ʻai hanau ngaahi kaumeʻa fakafou ʻi he “koloa kākā.” (Luke 16:9) ʻOku ʻikai pehē ia ʻe lava ke tau fakatau mai ʻa e kaumeʻa mo Sīsuú pe ko Sihová. ʻI hono kehé, ʻi hono ngāueʻaki ʻetau koloa fakamatelié ke fakalahi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻo e Puleʻangá, ʻoku tau fakamoʻoniʻi ai ʻetau kaumeʻá mo e ʻofá, ʻo ʻikai ʻi he lea pē, ka ʻi he ‘ngaue mo e moʻoni.’ (1 Sione 3:16-18) ʻOku tau ʻoatu ʻa e poupou fakapaʻanga ko iá ʻi heʻetau kau ʻi he ngāue fakamalangá, ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau tokoni fakapaʻanga ai ki he langa mo e tauhi ʻa hotau ngaahi fale fakatahá, pea ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau tokoni fakapaʻanga ai ki he ngāue fakamalanga ʻi māmani lahí. Pe ʻoku siʻi pe lahi ʻa e meʻa ʻoku tau tokoni ʻakí, ko Sihova mo Sīsū fakatouʻosi ʻokú na houngaʻia moʻoni ʻi heʻetau foaki fiefiá.—2 Kol. 9:7.
18 Ko ha founga hono tolu ʻoku tau fakamoʻoniʻi kotoa ai ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa kitautolu ʻo Kalaisí ko e ngāue fāitaha mo e tataki ʻoku ʻomai ʻe he kau mātuʻa ʻi he fakatahaʻangá. Ko e kau tangatá ni ʻoku fakanofo kinautolu ʻe he laumālie māʻoniʻoní ʻi he malumalu ʻo e tataki ʻa Kalaisí. (Ef. 5:23) “Mou tuitala ki he kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻomoutolu, pea fakavaivai kiate kinautolu” ko e tohi ia ʻa e ʻapositolo ko Paulá. (Hep. 13:17) ʻI he taimi ʻe niʻihi, ʻoku tau ʻiloʻi nai ai ʻoku faingataʻa ke talangofua ki he tataki makatuʻunga ʻi he Tohi Tapú ʻoku ʻomai kia kitautolu ʻe he kau mātuʻa fakalotofonuá. Ngalingali ʻoku tau lāuʻilo ki heʻenau ngaahi taʻehaohaoá, pea ʻe mioʻi nai ʻe he meʻá ni ʻa ʻetau vakai ki heʻenau akonakí. Neongo ia, ko Kalaisi, ʻa e ʻUlu ʻo e fakatahaʻangá, ʻokú ne fiefia ke ngāueʻaki ʻa e kau tangata taʻehaohaoa ko ení. Ko ia ai, ko e anga ʻo ʻetau fakafeangai ki honau mafaí ʻoku kaunga fakahangatonu ia ki heʻetau kaumeʻa mo Kalaisí. ʻI heʻetau fakangaloʻi ʻa e ngaahi fehālaaki ʻa e kau mātuʻá pea muimui fiefia ʻi heʻenau tatakí, ʻoku tau fakamoʻoniʻi ai ʻa ʻetau ʻofa kia Kalaisí.
