Ko hono taaʻi ko eni ʻe Sihova ʻa Penisimani ko hono tauteaʻi kinautolu ʻi heʻenau halaia ʻi he meʻa naʻa nau fai ʻi Kipea, pe amo ʻenau hanga ʻo veuki ʻa e taha ʻa ʻIsilelí, ʻa e meʻa ko ē ʻoku mahuʻingaʻia ai ʻa e ʻOtuá, ʻa e meʻa ko e ngāue mo faaitaha ʻi he moʻui faka-ʻOtuá. Pea ko ia ʻoku lave ki ai ʻa e ʻapositolo ki he siasi ʻi Filipai. “ʻE mou fakakakato ʻeku fiefia ʻi hoʻomou loto taha, ke taha hoʻomou ʻofá pea mou uoungataha pea huʻufa taha hoʻomou feingá (Fili 2:2).
