ʼE foaki ai ia he toe lagolago ki te gaue faifakamafola. Ko te fakatuʼutuʼu tafito ʼo te ʼu Petele fuli, ʼe ko te fakafealagia ki te hahaʼi fuli ke natou maʼu ia te moʼoni Fakatohi-tapu. Pea ʼe fakafealagia e te kaupepa lahi ʼaeni ia te faʼahi ʼaia. Neʼe tohi ʼaki te maluʼi e te Kolesi Pule, pea neʼe momoli ʼi te Neti kia kutuga faifakaliliu ʼe lauʼi teau ʼi te malamanei katoa, neʼe ta e te ʼu masini ta tohi vave ʼi ʼihi Petele ʼe fai ai te ta tohi, pea mo ʼave kia kokelekasio ʼe 110 000 tupu. ʼI te ʼu aluʼaga fuli ʼaia, ʼe fakahoko e te ʼu famili ʼo te ʼu Petele ia he toe lagolago ki te gaue maʼuhiga ʼaupito ʼae ko te fakamafola ʼo te logo lelei.​​—Maleko 13:⁠10.
