Fakapulipuli 2: Tukupā
“Ko e meʻa kuo fakahoko ʻe he ʻOtua, ke ʻoua naʻa fakamavae ʻe ha tangata.”—Mātiu 19:6.
ʻUhinga ʻo e meʻá ni. Ko e ngaahi hoa mali lavameʻá ʻoku nau vakai ki heʻenau nofo malí ko ha haʻi tuʻuloa. ʻI he taimi ʻoku malanga hake ai ha palopalemá, ʻoku nau feinga lahi ke fakaleleiʻi kae ʻikai ke ngāueʻaki ia ko ha kalofanga ke fakangata ai ʻa e nofo malí. ʻI he taimi ʻoku fai ai ha tukupā ʻa e ongo meʻa malí, ʻokú na ongoʻi malu. ʻOkú na taki taha falala ʻe hokohoko atu ʻa e tokotaha ʻe tahá ʻi hono fakalāngilangiʻi ʻa e haʻi ko iá.
ʻUhinga ʻoku mahuʻinga aí. ʻI he founga lahi, ko e tukupaá ʻa e huituʻa ʻo ha vahaʻangatae ʻi ha nofo mali. Neongo ia, hili ha toutou fepaki, ʻoku lava ke hā ngali ange ai ko ha tauhele ʻa e tukupaá ia kae ʻikai ko ha falala. Ko hono moʻoní, ko e “kae ʻoua kuo fakamāvae kitaua ʻe he maté” ʻoku hoko ia ko ha aleapau maʻamaʻa—ʻa ia ʻoku fakaʻamu ai ʻa e ongo meʻá ke na ʻatā mei ai. ʻOku ʻikai nai te na fakangata moʻoni ʻa e nofo malí, ka ʻoku lava ke na “ʻatā mei ai” ʻi he founga kehe—ko e fakatātaá, ʻaki ʻena mavahe ʻo fakalolongo ʻi he taimi ʻoku fiemaʻu ai ke fai ha lāulea ki ha ʻīsiu mafatukitukí.
ʻAhiʻahiʻi eni. Sivisiviʻi ʻa hoʻo tukupaá, ʻo ngāueʻaki ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi hokó ko ha tataki.
◼ ʻI he taimi ʻokú ma fekīhiaki aí, ʻoku ou fakatomala ʻi heʻeku mali mo hoku hoá?
◼ ʻOku ou faʻa fakaʻānaua ke feohi mo ha taha kehe ʻo ʻikai ko hoku hoá?
◼ ʻOku ou tala ʻi he taimi ʻe niʻihi ki hoku hoá, “Te u liʻaki koe” pe “Te u kumi ha taha ʻoku mahuʻingaʻia ʻiate au”?
Fai ha fili pau. Fakakaukau ki ha meʻa ʻe taha pe ua ʻe lava ke ke fai ke ʻai ai ke mālohi ʻa hoʻo tukupaá. (Ngaahi fokotuʻu: Faitohi ʻi he taimi ki he taimi ki ho hoá, tuku maʻu ha ngaahi tā ʻo ho hoá ʻi he ngāué, pe telefoni mei he ngāué ki ho hoá ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ke ʻi ai pē haʻamo fetuʻutaki.)
Ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai fai ai ha ngaahi fokotuʻu pea ʻeke leva ki ho hoá pe ko fē ʻa e fokotuʻu ʻoku mahuʻinga taha kiate iá?
[Fakatātā ʻi he peesi 4]
Ko e tukupaá ko ha maluʻi ia ʻokú ne ʻai ke malu ʻa hoʻo nofo malí ʻo hangē ko hono ʻai ʻe he ʻā ʻo ha hala lahi ke malu ʻa e kaá ʻi he halá
