"7Ka ‘ilo ha tangata kuo ne kaiha‘asi ha taha ‘o hono kāinga ko ha‘a ‘Isileli, ‘o ne ngaohi hangē ha pōpula, pe kuo ne fakatau ia; pea ‘e mate ‘a e kaiha‘a ko ia: ka ke ‘ave ‘a e kovi mei ho lotolotonga."

"16Pea ko ia ‘oku ne kaiha‘a ha tangata, pea ‘oku ne fakatau ia, pe ‘oku ‘iloa ia ‘oku ne kei ma‘u, kuo pau ke mate tāmate‘i ia."

"19te mou toki fai kiate ia, ‘o hangē ko ‘ene fakakaukau ke fai ki hono kāinga: ka ke ‘ave ai ‘a e kovi mei ho lotolotonga."

KO HONO FAKAFEPAKIʻI ʻE HE LAÓ NI, ʻA E KAIHAʻA TANGATÁ. ʻOku teʻeki ke mate ʻa e lao ʻa Mosesé ʻo fekauʻaki mo e kaihaʻasi ʻo e fanga pulu, mo e ngaahi koloa, ka ko eni ia ko e kaihaʻasi ʻo ha fānau, pe ko ha taha ʻoku ivi siʻi, pe ko ha taha pe, ʻoku faingofua ki hono kaihaʻasi, ʻaki hono fuʻu mafai ʻo e tokotaha kaihaʻá, pea ne ʻave ʻo ngāueʻaki ʻo hangē ha popula, pea aʻu pe ki heʻene fakatau atu ʻa e tokotaha naʻá ne kaihaʻasí. Ko e hia matea eni, pe tamateʻi, koeʻuhi ke ʻave ʻa e koví, mei he lotolotonga ʻa hono kakaí. He ko ia pe ʻa e finangalo ʻo e ʻOtuá ki hono kakaí, ʻa ʻIsileli, ke nau tauhi maʻa mo toputapu kinautolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e ʻOtua maʻoniʻoni ʻa honau ʻOtuá.

Pea naʻe ʻuhinga pehē ʻa hono ʻomi ʻa e ngahi laó, koeʻuhi ke tauhi ki ai ʻa ʻIsileli pea kau ki ai ʻa e lao ko eni ʻo e kaihaʻa tangatá, pea ko hono tamateʻi ʻo e tangata kaihaʻá, ke ʻave ʻa e koví mei hono kakaí. Pea ko ia ʻoku lave ki ai ʻa e ʻapositoló ʻo fekauʻaki mo e siasí “Ka ko kimoutolu ko e haʻa fili, ko e tuʻunga taulaʻeiki fakatuʻi, ko e kakai tapu, ko e faʻahinga ʻoku maʻae meʻa tonu..” (1 Pita 2:9). Ko e kau tui kotoa pē kia Kalaisí ko e tuʻunga taulaʻeiki, he kuo nau ʻalu hangatonu ki he ʻOtuá, ʻo hangē ko e kau taulaʻeiki ʻi he Fuakava Motuʻá. Ko e ikuna naʻe fai ʻe Kalaisi ʻi he kolosí, pea liliu leva sīpinga moʻui kuo tau ʻalu hangatonu ki he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá taʻemanavahē (Hep 4:16). Ko hotau fatongia, ko hono ʻomai ʻa e kakai kehe kiate ia (2 Kol 5:18-21). Ko e taimi ʻoku tau taha mo Kalaisi, ko e kau memipa kitautolu ʻa hono sinó pea tau kau leva ʻi he ngāue fakataulaʻeiki ʻa e fakalelei ʻa e ʻOtuá mo e tangatá, pea ko e tuʻunga maʻoniʻoni ʻa hono kakaí, ko hono siasi, pea ke nau tauhi maʻa ai pe, mo maʻoniʻoni kiate ia ʻi he ivi ʻa hono Laumalie Maʻoniʻoní, ʻo ʻikai ha toe tauhi lao.
