Ngaahi Fehuʻi mei he Kau Lautohí

ʻOku fakahaaʻi ʻe he Sāme 102:26 ko e māmaní mo e ngaahi langí ʻe “ʻauha.” ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻa e fakamatala ko iá ʻe fakaʻauha ʻa e palanite ko Māmaní?

ʻI ha lotu kia Sihova, naʻe fakahaaʻi ai ʻe he tokotaha-tohi-sāmé: “ʻI he kamataʻanga naʻa ke tanupou ʻa mamani; pea ko e ngaue ʻa ho nima ʻa e ngaahi langi. Ko kinautolu ʻe ʻauha, kae tuʻu ai pe ʻa e ʻAfiona: ʻio, te nau fakaʻau kotoa ke motuʻa hange ko e kofu; pea te ke fetongi ia hange ha pulupulu: ʻio, ʻe fetongi pe kinautolu.” (Sāme 102:​25, 26) Ko e potutohí ʻoku fakahaaʻi ai ko e ongo vēsí ni ʻoku lau ia ʻo ʻikai fekauʻaki mo e fakaʻauha ʻo e foʻi māmaní, ka ʻoku fekauʻaki ia mo e tuʻunga ʻitāniti ʻo e ʻOtuá. ʻOku toe fakahaaʻi ʻe he potutohí ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻoku fakafiemālie ai ʻa e foʻi moʻoni mātuʻaki mahuʻinga ko iá ki he kau sevāniti ʻa e ʻOtuá.

Neongo ia, naʻa mo e fuʻu kuonga ʻo e māmaní mo e ngaahi langí ʻoku ʻikai lava ke fakahoa ia ki he ʻi ai taʻengata ʻa Sihová. ʻOku tānaki mai ʻe he tokotaha-tohi-sāmé: “Ko kinautolu [foʻi māmaní mo e ngaahi langí] ʻe ʻauha, kae tuʻu ai pe ʻa e ʻAfiona.” (Sāme 102:26) Ko e foʻi māmaní mo e ngaahi langi matelié ʻoku ʻauhangofua. Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku fakahaaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻi ha toe feituʻu kehe te nau tuʻu ʻo taʻengata. (Sāme 119:90; Koheleti 1:4) Ka ʻe lava ke fakaʻauha kinautolu kapau naʻe pehē ʻa e taumuʻa ʻa e ʻOtuá. ʻI hono kehé, ʻoku ʻikai lava ke mate ʻa e ʻOtuá. Ko e ngaahi meʻa fakatupu fakamatelié ʻoku hanganaki “tuʻu maʻu ʻo lauikuonga” koeʻuhi pē ko hono tokangaʻi kinautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá. (Sāme 148:6) Kapau ʻe faifai ange pea tuku ʻe Sihova ʻene fakafoʻou ʻa e ngaahi meʻa fakatupu fakamatelié, te nau hoko leva ʻo “fakaʻau kotoa ke motuʻa hange ko e kofu.” (Sāme 102:26) Hangē pē ko e lōloa ange ʻa e moʻui ʻa ha tangata ʻi he tuʻunga ʻaonga ʻo hono ngaahi valá, ʻe pehē pē ʻa e lōloa ange ʻa e moʻui ʻa Sihová ʻi he tuʻunga ʻaonga ʻo ʻene meʻa fakatupú​—kapau naʻá ne fili ke fai pehē. Kae kehe, ʻoku tau ʻiloʻi mei he ngaahi konga Tohi Tapu kehé ʻoku ʻikai pehē ʻa hono finangaló. ʻOku fakapapauʻi mai ʻe he Folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá ko Sihová kuó ne fakapapauʻi ʻe tuʻumaʻu ai pē ʻo taʻengata ʻa e foʻi māmaní mo e ngaahi langí tonu.​—Sāme 104:5.
