Fakamaau 6:34 “Ka ko e Laumalie ʻo Sihová naʻe kofuʻaki ʻa Kitione”. Ko e fuʻu tokolahi ʻa e filí, naʻe fakalotosiʻi ia kia Kitione, pea mei aí ke fakapapauʻi ʻo ʻene tui ʻaʻana, pea ko ʻene kau taú naʻa nau holi kinautolu ke ʻi ai ha ngaahi mana ke fakaʻilongaʻiʻaki ʻa e lotolotonga ʻo e ʻOtuá. He ko e ʻuluaki fakaʻilonga naʻe ʻikai ke fakafiemalie ia kiate ia, pea ʻoku eʻa mei ai ʻa e taʻetuí. Naʻe toe kole ha fakaʻilonga ʻe taha, naʻá ne fai pe ʻi he manavahē mo e tāiliili. Naʻe angaʻofa pe ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻo tali ʻa ʻene kolé. ʻOku tokoni pe ʻa e ʻOtuá ki he kau tui moʻoní, neongo ʻa ʻenau vaivai, pea ʻoku ne mateuteu ke langaʻi hake ʻenau tonounoú. Ko Kitioné tene maʻu ʻe ia ʻa e fulufuluʻi sipi ʻoku viviku, kae momoa pe ʻa e kelekelé ia, he ko e fakaenatula totonu pe ia ʻo e fulufuluʻi sipí, neongo ko e kiʻi hauhau siʻisiʻi pe ka ʻe tanaki pe ia ʻe he fulufuluʻi sipí ʻo maʻu. Ko ia aí, naʻá ne fiemaʻu leva ko e pō ʻoku hokó, ke toe tuku pe ʻa e fulufuluʻi sipí ʻi tuʻa, pea ke viviku ʻa e kelekelé, kae momoa pe ʻa e fulufuluʻi sipí.Ko ia ko e ʻOtuá ʻi heʻene finangaló ke ʻasili hā ki he ngaahi ʻea ʻo e talaʻofá (palōmesi) hono taʻemaliliu ʻo ʻEne tuʻutuʻuní (Hep 6:17,18), koeʻuhi ko e ʻi ai ʻa e ongo meʻa taʻemaliliu ʻe ua, ʻa ia naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito leva ke loi ai ʻa e ʻOtuá, ʻa ia naʻe ʻikai ko e ikuna pe ʻaki honau ngaahi faingamalie, ka ko e fakafiemalie ki heʻenau ngaahi talá mo e ngaahi taʻefiemalié. Ko e fakaʻilonga ko ení ko e mana pe ia pea ʻokú ne fakapapauʻi ʻa e fekau ʻo Kitioné. Ko ia ai ʻoku pehē ko e hahau meia Sihová ko e tulutā ʻuha, ʻoku ʻikai fakaongo ia ki ha ʻeiki, pea ʻoku ʻikai tali ki he haʻa lauvale (Maika 5:7). Ko e ʻOtuá ʻoku fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo e tangatá, ʻo hangē ko ʻene fai kia Siosiuá, ʻi heʻene kole ʻo fekauʻaki mo e laʻaá, pea kia Kitione eni, ʻene kole ʻo fekauʻaki mo e hahaú, pea ʻoku hā mai, naʻe ʻikai ke toó ko ha faingamalie, ka ko e ʻofa tauhi mai ʻa e ʻOtuá Pea ko e ongo fakaʻilongá naʻe fuʻu mahuʻinga ia. He ko ia mo ʻene kau tangatá, te nau ʻalu ʻo taaʻi ʻa e kau Mitianí, pea ʻoku lava ʻe he ʻOtuá, ʻo fakafaikehekeheʻi ʻa e kiʻi tokosiʻi ʻo ʻIsilelí, mo e fuʻu kau Mitiani naʻe hangē ko e ʻoneʻone ʻo e tahí honau tokolahi. ʻIo, pea ke ʻilo ʻe Kitione, ʻoku lava ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻo fai ia. Naʻe holi ʻa Kitioné ke ʻalu hifo ʻa e hahau ʻa e kelesi ʻa e ʻOtuá kiate ia makehe pe? ʻOku ne sio ki he fulufulu sipí ʻoku viviku ʻi he hahau ke fakapapauʻi ia. Naʻá ne fakaʻamu nai ke hoko ʻa e ʻOtuá ko e hahau ki ʻIsileli fakakatoa? Vakai, ko e kotoa ʻo e kelekelé ʻoku viviku.

Ko e ha nai ha meʻa te ne fakatupunga kiate kitautolu ko e kau angahala Senitaile ke maʻu ʻa e tapuaki ʻa eʻEikí, ʻa ē ko e hahau ʻo e ngahai tapuaki fakalangi ne hoko tatuʻotaha ki ʻIsilelí. Ka ʻi he ʻahó ni ke ʻalu hifo ki he kau nofoʻi kotoa pe ʻo e māmani ʻo ʻikai fakangatangata. Ko e ʻuhinga ia ʻo e Kelesí, ki he taha kotoa ʻia Kalaisi.
