Hiki ʻi he palakipoé ʻa e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 121:7–10; 122:7–9. Fakamanatu ki he kau akó naʻe fakahā ʻe he ʻEikí ʻi he ngaahi veesi ko ʻení ha ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ki he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá, ke fakanonga ʻaki ia mo e Kāingalotú lolotonga ʻenau faingataʻaʻiá.

Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá

“Naʻe ʻikai taʻofi ʻe he fakatangá ʻa e tupulaki ʻa e moʻoní, ka naʻá ne toe tafunaki ʻe ia ʻene uló. …

“… Kuo ʻosi fokotuʻu ʻa e Fuka ʻo e Moʻoní; pea he ʻikai lava ʻe ha nima taʻe māʻoniʻoni ke taʻofi ʻa e ngāué mei heʻene laka ki muʻá; ʻe lava ke taulōfuʻu ʻa e ngaahi fakatangá, kau fakataha mo e kakai koví, fakatahataha mo e ngaahi kau taú, lau kovi mo e kakai loí, ka he ʻikai ufi e laka atu ki muʻa e moʻoni ʻa e ʻOtuá, ʻi he anga fakaʻeiʻeiki mo tauʻatāina, kae ʻoua kuo hū atu ki he konitinēniti kotoa pē, aʻu ki he potu kotoa pē, ʻuʻufi ʻa e fonua kotoa pē, mo fakaongo ʻi he telinga kotoa pē, kae ʻoua kuo fakahoko ʻa e ngaahi taumuʻa ʻa e ʻOtuá, pea folofola ʻa Sihova Maʻongoʻonga kuo lava ʻa e ngāué” History of the Church, 4:540).

• Ko e hā e tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻoku tau ako mei he fakamatala ko ʻení? (ʻE ala ʻiloʻi ʻe he kau akó ha ngaahi moʻoni kehekehe, kae fakamamafaʻi ʻa e meʻá ni: He ʻikai ha meʻa te ne taʻofi e fakalakalaka ʻa e ngāue ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻi he funga ʻo e māmaní.)

• Ko e hā ha fakamoʻoni ʻo e tefitoʻi moʻoni ko ʻení ʻi he kuongá ni?

• Ko e hā ha ngaahi founga te ke lava ai ʻo kau ʻi he ngāue ʻa e ʻOtuá?

Fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe hiki ʻe he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá e kikite ko ʻení ʻi ha tohi ʻi he taimi ko iá kia Sione Ueniuefi, naʻe kamata ke ui ʻe he ʻEikí ha kau faifekau ke malanga ʻaki ʻa e ongoongoleleí ʻi he ngaahi fonua kehekehe. Naʻe kamata hono fakahoko e kikite ko iá ʻi he taimi naʻe papitaiso ai—tautautefito ki Pilitānia Lahi—ha kakai ʻe lauiafe. Naʻe ʻomi ʻe he kau mēmipa foʻoú ha ivi lahi ki he Siasí, pea naʻe fononga ha tokolahi ke kau fakataha mo e Kāingalotu ʻi Nāvuú.

Fakahaaʻi ki he kalasí, naʻe hoko e kakai fefine ʻo e Siasí ʻi Nāvū, ʻIlinoisí, ko ha ivi lahi ki hono ʻunuakiʻi e ngāue ʻa e ʻEikí ki muʻá. Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e palakalafi ʻe ua ko ʻení:

Naʻe fakataha ha kakai fefine ʻe niʻihi ʻi he 1842 ʻi Nāvū, ke aleaʻi ha ngaahi founga te nau lava ai ʻo tokoni ki hono langa ʻo e Temipale Nāvuú. Naʻa nau fokotuʻu ai ha kiʻi kulupu pea ne nau ʻeke ki he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá pe ko e hā ʻene fakakaukau ki aí. Naʻá ne poupouʻi ia, ka naʻe ueʻi fakalaumālie ia ke fokotuʻu ʻa e fineʻofá “ʻi he malumalu ʻo e lakanga fakataulaʻeikí ʻo fakatatau mo e sīpinga ʻo e lakanga fakataulaʻeikí” (Ngaahi Akonaki ʻa e Kau Palesiteni ʻo e Siasí: Siosefa Sāmita [2007], 519; vakai foki, Ngaahi ʻOfefine ʻi Hoku Puleʻangá: Ko e Hisitōlia mo e Ngāue ʻa e Fineʻofá [2011], 14).

Naʻe ui ʻa ʻEma Sāmita ke hoko ko e fuofua palesiteni lahi ʻo e Fineʻofá. Naʻe akonaki ʻa Sisitā ʻĪlisa R. Sinou, ʻa ia naʻe hoko ko e sekelitali ʻo e Fineʻofá ʻi Nāvuú pea naʻe hoko kimui ko e palesiteni lahi hono ua ʻo e Fineʻofá ʻo pehē: “Neongo ʻoku fakaeonopooni ʻa e hingoá [Fineʻofá] ka ko e tukuʻau mai e tupuʻanga ʻo e kautahá mei he kuonga muʻá. Naʻe fakahā mai ʻe [he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá] naʻe ʻi ai ha kautaha pehē pē ʻi he siasi he kuonga muʻá” (“Female Relief Society,” Deseret News, Apr. 22, 1868, 1; vakai foki, Ngaahi ʻOfefine ʻi Hoku Puleʻangá, 8).

• Ko e hā ʻoku tau lava ʻo ako kau ki he Fineʻofá mei he lea ʻa ʻĪlisa R. Sinoú? (ʻI he tali ʻa e kau akó, hiki e moʻoni ko ʻení ʻi he palakipoé: Ko e Fineʻofá ko ha tafaʻaki ueʻi fakalaumālie ia ʻo hono Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí.)

• ʻOkú ke pehē ko e hā ʻoku mahuʻinga ai ke mahino kiate kitautolu ʻa e moʻoni ko ʻení?

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e lea ko ʻeni fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi taumuʻa ʻo e Fineʻofá:

“Naʻe fokotuʻu ʻa e Fineʻofá ke tokoni ki hono teuteuʻi e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo e ʻOtuá ki he ngaahi tāpuaki ʻo e moʻui taʻengatá. Ko e ngaahi taumuʻa ʻo e Fineʻofá ke fakatupulaki ʻa e tuí mo e angatonu fakafoʻituituí, fakamālohia e ngaahi fāmilí mo e ʻapí pea foaki ha fakafiemālie ʻi hono kumi pea tokoniʻi ʻa kinautolu ʻoku faingataʻaʻiá” (Ngaahi ʻOfefine ʻi Hoku Puleʻangá, xi–xii).

Kole ki he kau akó ke nau toe vakaiʻi ʻa e meʻa naʻa nau tohi ʻi heʻenau tohinoa ako folofolá he ʻaho 4, ngāue kuo vahe fika 5. (Naʻe kole ange ke nau talanoa ki ha mēmipa ʻo e Fineʻofá pea hiki hifo ha ngaahi founga kuo tāpuekina ai ʻe he Fineʻofá ʻene moʻuí mo ʻoange ha ngaahi faingamālie ke kau ai ʻi he ngāue ʻa e ʻEikí.) Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke nau vahevahe e ngaahi meʻa kuo nau ako mei he ʻekitivitī ko ʻení.

Fakaʻosi ʻaki e lēsoni ko ʻení hono vahevahe hoʻo fakamoʻoní ki he founga kuo tokoni ai e ngaahi ngāue ʻa e kau tangata mo e fafine moʻui faivelenga ʻo e kuonga ko ʻení ki he ngāue ʻa e ʻEikí, ke kei tupulaki ai pē ʻi he funga ʻo e māmaní. Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke nau moʻui faivelenga koeʻuhí ke nau kei kau pē ʻi he ngāue ʻa e ʻEikí.

Kole ki he kau akó ke nau fakakaukau ki he ngaahi taimi kuo nau kau ai ki ha papi mo e hilifakinima maʻá e kakai kuo pekiá. Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻe fekauʻaki e ngaahi lēsoni ʻi he uike ka hoko maí mo e Temipale Nāvuú pea mo hono fakafoki mai e ouau ʻo e papitaiso maʻá e kakai pekiá.
