Sios 9:1 “Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻe he ngaahi tuʻí .. pea naʻa nau toki fakatahataha ʻo nau alea ke fai tau mo Siosiua mo ʻIsilelí” Talu mei muʻa ʻo fāimai, ko e kau Kenaní naʻa nau ngāue pe ki hono maluʻi kinautolu, ka ko eni ia, kuo nau alea ke nau ʻohofi ʻa ʻIsileli. Ko e meʻa foʻou eni heʻikai ke nau fai eni fakavavevave. Pea ko e lahiange ʻene foʻoú, ko ʻenau ngāue ke nau fakatahataha. Ko hono ikunaʻi ʻo Selikoó, kuó ne ʻomi ha fakamoʻoni ʻa e fuʻu mafai ʻo e ʻOtuá, pea pehē ki Ai, pea mo e founga naʻe ngāueʻaki ʻe ʻIsilelí, he kapau naʻa nau poto, heʻikai ke tau mo ʻIsileli, ka te nau ʻoatu ha fakafofonga ke kole ha fakalelei, he ko e leleitaha ia te nau ala faí (Lk 14:32). Ka ko honau ʻatamaí kuo kuihi, pea ko honau ngaahi lotó kuo fakafefeka ki honau fakaʻauhá. Tokangaʻi angē, ko e hā ʻa e meʻa naʻá ne fakalotoʻi kinautolu ke nau fai ʻa e fakatahataha ko ení - ʻi he taimi naʻa nau fanongo ai, ko hono ikunaʻi pe ʻo Selikō mo Aí, ka ko e meʻa naʻe paasi mai he moʻunga ko Ipalé, ʻa hono tolu ʻi he maka ʻo e ʻolitá, ʻa e tatau ʻo e lao ʻa Mosesé. Neongo ʻa e fakatahataha ʻa e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Kenaní ke fakafepakiʻi ʻa ʻIsilelí. Ka ʻoku ʻikai talamai ia ʻe he potu tohí ni naʻe hoko ha tau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea mo e fakataha ai naʻe puli pe ʻa e lau fakatahatahá ni, hili pe ʻa e v.2. Ko e kulupu pe eni ʻe ono ʻo Kenani ʻoku hiki ʻi heni pea ʻoku toutou lekooti fakatahaʻi pe kinautolu (3:10). Pea ko kinautolu pe naʻe tala ʻe he ʻOtuá ki ʻIsilelí ke fakaʻauha kinautolu he naʻe ʻikai finangalo ʻa e ʻOtuá ki ʻIsileli, ke nau taha mo kinautolu ʻi he malu honau ʻātakaí (Eki 23:28-33 ; Teut 7:1-5) Ka ko hono akoʻi ʻa e kakai ʻa e ʻOtuá ke nau moʻui anga fakalotu ʻo nau liʻoa ki ai, ʻi he taimi niʻihi ʻoku manukiʻi mo lau„i nai ʻa e moʻui liʻoa ko iá ʻe honau ngaahi filí ʻo lahi ange ʻi ha toe meʻa. Kaekehe, ʻoku hoko ʻa e meʻa tatau ki hotau ui ki he moʻui ʻa Kalaisí ʻa hono fehiʻanekina ʻe māmani mo e kakanó. Kāingā tuʻu ke matuʻu maʻa Sīsū ē, tuʻu ke matuʻu ʻo ʻoua ʻe vaivai, pā pē peau kae ʻikai ngāue hangē ha makatuʻu ʻi tahi.
