‘Oku ou Tui ‘oku Totonu ke Faitotonu mo Angatonu

Siʻeku kau finemui ʻofeina, ko ha tāpuaki mo ha faingamālie maʻongoʻonga kiate au ke u tuʻu ʻi hoʻomou haʻohaʻongá ʻi he efiafí ni. ʻOku mou hā fakaʻofoʻofa mo matamatalelei ke vakai atu ki ai.

Ko e Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú ko e Kaveinga ia ʻa e Mutualé ki he 2011. ʻI heʻeku kau atu ki he ngaahi fakatahaʻanga ʻa e toʻu tupú mo e ngaahi houalotusākalamēniti ʻi he taʻu ní, kuó u fanongo ki he vahevahe ʻe he kau talavoú mo e kau finemuí ʻa e ʻuhinga kiate kinautolu ʻa e Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú pea mo e founga ʻoku nau fakaʻaongaʻi ai kinautolu ʻi heʻenau moʻuí. ʻOku tokolahi ha niʻihi ʻoku nau ʻiloʻi ko e Tefito ʻo e Tui fakaʻosí ia, ko e lōloa tahá ia, ko e faingataʻa taha ia ke ako maʻulotó, pea ko e Tefito ʻo e Tui ia ʻoku nau amanaki he ʻikai ke kole ange ʻe he pīsopé ke nau lau maʻuloto angé. Neongo ia, ʻoku mahino ki ha tokolahi ʻo kimoutolu ʻoku lahi ange ʻa e meʻa ʻoku ʻuhinga ki ai e Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú.

Ko e Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú ko ha fakahinohino ia ki he moʻui angatonú mo e moʻui faka-Kalisitiané. Fakakaukau angé pe naʻe mei fēfē hotau māmaní kapau naʻe fili ʻa e tokotaha kotoa pē ke ne moʻui ʻaki ʻa e ngaahi akonaki ʻoku ʻi he Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú: “ ʻOku mau tui ʻoku totonu ke faitotonu, angatonu, sino maʻa, angalelei, anga-māʻoniʻoni, pea fai lelei ki he kakai kotoa pē; ko e moʻoni, ʻoku mau lava ke pehē ʻoku mau muimui ki he naʻinaʻi ʻa Paulá—ʻOku mau tui ki he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, ʻoku mau ʻamanaki lelei ki he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, kuo mau kātakiʻi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa lahi, pea ʻoku mau ʻamanaki ke mau lava ʻo kātakiʻi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē. Kapau ʻoku ai ha meʻa ʻoku māʻoniʻoni, fakaʻofoʻofa, pe ongoongolelei pe feʻunga mo hono vīkivikiʻí, ko e ngaahi meʻa ia ʻoku mau fekumi ki aí.”

Naʻe fai ʻe Palesiteni Tōmasi S.Monisoni ko e palōfitá ʻa e ʻuluaki lea ʻi he pongipongi Sāpate ʻo e konifelenisi lahí, pea naʻá ne lau ʻa e naʻinaʻi ko ia ʻa Paula ʻoku ʻi he Filipai 4:8ʻa ia ʻokú ne langaki hake ʻa e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻi he Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú. Naʻá ne fakahā mai ʻa e ngaahi taimi faingataʻa ʻa ia ʻoku tau moʻui aí peá ne ʻomi mo ha fakalotolahi. Naʻá ne pehē, “ʻI heʻetau ngaahi fononga taʻepau ko ʻeni ʻi he māmaní, ʻoku ou fakatauange te tau … muimui ʻi he faleʻi mei he ʻAposetolo ko Paulá ʻa ia te ne maluʻi kitautolu mo tau nofo maʻu ai ʻi he halá.”¹

ʻI he pōní, ʻoku tuku taha ʻeku tokangá ki he ongo tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻokú na fekauʻaki mo e Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú, ʻa ia ʻokú na mātuʻaki tokoni ke “maluʻi kitautolu mo tau nofo maʻu ai ʻi he halá.” ʻOku ʻi ai ʻeku fakamoʻoni mālohi mo e fakapapau ki he mahuʻinga ʻo e ongo tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻo e totonu ke faitotonu mo angatonú.

ʻUluakí, “[ʻOku ou] tui ʻoku totonu ke faitotonu.” Ko e hā ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻo e faitotonú? ʻOku akoʻi mai ʻe he kiʻi tohi ko e Tuʻu Maʻu ʻi he Tuí“Okuʻuhinga ʻa e faitotonú ke fakamoʻomoʻoni, mo moʻoni, pea mo ʻikai ha kākā, ʻi he taimi kotoa.”² Ko ha fekau ia mei he ʻOtuá ke faitotonu³ pea “ ʻoku fie maʻu ʻa e faitotonu kakató ki hotau fakamoʻuí.”⁴

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Palesiteni Hauati W. Hanitā kuo pau ke tau mātuʻaki lotoʻaki ʻa e faitotonú. Naʻá ne pehē:

“ʻI he ngaahi taʻu lahi kuo hilí naʻe ʻi ai ha ngaahi fakatātā ʻi he ngaahi loki talitaliʻanga kakai mo e ngaahi hūʻanga ki homau ngaahi falalotú ʻa ia naʻe fakahingoa ko e, ‘Faitotonu Kiate Koe.’ Ko e lahi taha ʻo e ngaahi fakatātaá naʻe ʻi ai ʻenau kaunga ki he ngaahi tūkunga iiki mo angamaheni ʻo e moʻuí. Ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻeni ʻoku fakatupulaki ai e tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻo e faitotonú.

“ʻOku ʻi ai ha niʻihi te nau pehē ʻoku hala fakaeʻulungāanga ke taʻe faitotonu ʻi he ngaahi meʻa lalahí ka ʻoku nau tui ʻoku fakatonuhiaʻi pē kapau ʻoku ʻikai ke fuʻu loko mahuʻinga ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ko iá. ʻOku ʻi ai nai ha faikehekehe moʻoni ʻi he taʻe faitotonu ʻi ha meʻa fekauʻaki mo e paʻanga ʻe tahaafé pe ko ha meʻa fekauʻaki mo ha kiʻi sēnití? … ʻOku ʻi ai nai ha fakafuofua moʻoni ʻo e taʻe faitotonú, ʻo fakatatau pe naʻe lahi pe siʻisiʻi ʻa e meʻa ne hokó?”

Naʻe hoko atu ʻa Palesiteni Hanitā, “Kapau te tau maʻu ʻa e takaua ʻa e ʻEikí mo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, kuo pau ke tau faitotonu ʻiate kitautolu, faitotonu ki he ʻOtuá, pea mo hotau kāingá. ʻOku fakafiefia moʻoni hono olá.”⁵

ʻOku tau aʻusia ha melino ʻi hotau ʻatamaí mo e konisēnisi maʻá ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau faitotonu ai ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa peé, ʻo tatau ai pē pe ʻoku lahi pe siʻisiʻi. ʻOku fakatupulaki hotau ngaahi vā fetuʻutakí he ʻoku fakatefito ʻi he falalá. Pea ko e tāpuaki maʻongoʻonga taha ʻoku ʻomi ʻe he faitotonú ko e malava ke tau maʻu ʻa e takaua ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní.

ʻOku ou fie vahevahe atu ha kiʻi talanoa faingofua kuó ne fakamālohia ʻeku tukupā ke faitotonu ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa peé:

Naʻe ʻalu ha tangata … ʻi ha efiafi ʻe taha ke kaihaʻa koane mei he ngoueʻanga hono kaungāʻapí. Naʻá ne ʻalu mo hono kiʻi fohá pea fakatangutu ia ʻi he funga ʻaá ke fakasiosio, ke fakatokanga ange telia naʻa ʻalu ange ha taha. Naʻe puna ʻa e tangatá ʻi he funga ʻaá mo ha fuʻu tangai lahi ʻi hono nimá, pea kimuʻa ke ne toli e koané naʻá ne sio takai holo, ki he tafaʻaki ko ē mo e tafaʻaki ko ē, pea ʻi he ʻikai ke ne sio ki ha tahá naʻá ne kamata ke fakafonu ʻene tangaí.… [Naʻe ui atu ʻa e kiʻi tamasiʻí]:

“‘…Naʻe kaila atu e kiʻi tamasiʻí, “Tangataʻeiki, ʻoku teʻeki ke ke sio ki he tafaʻaki ʻe taha! … Ne ngalo ke ke sio ki ʻolunga.’”⁶

ʻI he taimi ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ai kitautolu ke tau taʻe faitotonú, pea ko e ʻahiʻahi ko ʻení ʻoku fai mai ia kiate kitautolu hono kotoa, mahalo te tau pehē he ʻikai pē ke ʻilo ia ʻe ha taha. ʻOku fakamanatu mai ʻe he talanoa ko ʻení ʻoku ʻafioʻi maʻu pē ia ʻe heʻetau Tamai Hēvaní, pea ʻoku tau mātuʻaki taliui kiate Ia. ʻOku tokoniʻi au ʻe he ʻilo ko ʻení ke hokohoko atu ʻeku fāifeinga ke moʻui ʻaki ʻa e tukupā ko ʻení: “[ʻOku ou] tui ʻoku totonu ke faitotonu.”

ʻOku akoʻi mai ʻe he Tefito ʻo e Tui hono hongofulu mā tolú ʻa e tefitoʻi moʻoni hono uá “ʻOku [ou] tui ʻoku totonu ke angatonu.” ʻOku fakamatalaʻi ʻe he tikisinalí ʻa e foʻi lea ko e angatonú ko e tuʻu maʻu, mateaki, totonu, pe ʻikai toe heliaki.⁷

Ko e taha ʻo e ngaahi tohi ʻoku ou manako aí ko e tohi ʻiloa mei Pilitānia ko e Jane Eyre, naʻe faʻu ʻe Charlotte Bronte ʻi he 1847. Ko e tokotaha ʻoku fai ki ai ʻa e talanoá ko Jane Eyre, ko ha kiʻi taʻahine naʻe fuʻu masiva, mo paea taʻu hongofulu tupu ka naʻá ne fakatātaaʻi ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻo e “angatonú.” ʻI he fakamatala faʻu ko ʻení, naʻe ʻi ai ha tangata ko Misa Rochester, naʻá ne ʻofa ʻia Miss Eyre ka naʻe ʻikai lava ke na mali. Ka, ʻokú ne kole kia Miss Eyre ke na nofo fakataha taʻe mali pē. Naʻe ʻofa foki mo Misi Eyre ʻia Misa Rochester, pea ʻokú ne fehuʻi pe kiate ia ʻi he taimi ʻoku ʻahiʻahi ai iá, “Ko hai ʻi he māmaní ʻoku tokanga atu kiate koé? pe ko hai ʻe lotomamahi ʻi he meʻa ʻokú ke faí?”

Naʻe vave hono tali pē ʻe he konisēnisi ʻo Seiní: “ʻOku ou tokangaʻi pē au. Ko e lahi ange ʻeku ongoʻi liʻekiná, taʻe ʻi ai ha kaungāmeʻá, mo e taʻe fai poupoua aú, ko e lahi ange ia ʻeku fakaʻapaʻapaʻi pē aú.

Ne angatonu ʻa Seini ʻEa ki heʻene ngaahi tuí ʻi he taimi ne taulōfuʻu ai e ʻahiʻahí, naʻá ne falala ki he fono ne ʻomi ʻe he ʻOtuá, peá ne “mateakiʻi” ke fakaʻehiʻehi mei he ʻahiʻahí.

Ko e angatonu ki heʻetau ngaahi tuí,— ʻo tatau ai pē pe ʻoku ʻikai manakoa, faingofua, pe fakafiefia,—ʻokú ne maluʻi kitautolu mo tau nofo maʻu ai ʻi he hala ʻoku fakatau ki he moʻui taʻengatá fakataha mo ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní.ʻOku ou saiʻia he fakatātā ko ʻeni ne tā ʻe ha finemui ʻe taha ke fakamanatu kiate ia ʻene holi ke ne aʻusia ʻa e fiefia ʻo e nofo fakataha mo e Tamai Hēvaní ʻo taʻengatá.

ʻOku fakaʻatā foki kitautolu ʻe he angatonú ke ne fakahoko ha ola lelei ʻi he moʻui ʻa e niʻihi kehé. Ne u toki fanongó ni ki he talanoa fakalaumālie ʻa ha finemui, ʻa ia naʻe makatuʻunga ʻi heʻene tukupā ke angatonu ki heʻene ngaahi tuí, ha ola maʻongoʻonga ʻi he moʻui ʻa ha finemui kehe ʻe taha.
