Amor fraternal
O amor fraternal é marca dos discípulos de Cristo. Nisto conhecerão que sois meus discípulos: se tiverdes amor uns aos outros.
Amar uns aos outros
Este é o meu mandamento: que vos ameis uns aos outros como Eu vos amei. O amor fraternal é testemunho ao mundo.
ʻOku ou tuku ʻae fekau foʻou kiate kimoutolu, Koeʻuhi ke mou feʻofaʻaki kiate kimoutolu; pea hangē ko ʻeku ʻofa kiate kimoutolu, ke mou feʻofaʻaki foki kiate kimoutolu. ʻI he meʻa ni ʻe ʻilo ai ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ko ʻeku kau ākonga ʻakimoutolu, ʻo kapau te mou feʻofaʻaki kiate kimoutolu."
Ko ʻeku fekau eni, Ke mou feʻofaʻaki kiate kimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku ʻofa kiate kimoutolu.
ʻOku ʻikai ha tangata ʻe lahi hake ʻene ʻofa ʻi he meʻa ni, ke ne foaki ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko hono kāinga.
He ko eni ʻae fekau kuo mou fanongo ki ai talu mei he kamataʻanga, ke tau feʻofaʻaki kiate kitautolu.
ʻOku tau ʻilo kuo tau hao mei he mate ki he moʻui, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻetau ʻofa ki he kāinga. Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻofa ki hono tokoua, ʻoku nofo pe ia ʻi he mate,
Ko e meʻa ni ʻoku tau ʻilo ai ʻae ʻofa, koeʻuhi kuo ne tuku hifo ʻene moʻui maʻatautolu: pea totonu ai ʻetau tuku hifo ʻetau moʻui koeʻuhi ko e kāinga. Ka ko ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae lelei ʻoe māmani, pea ne mamata ki he masiva ʻa hono tokoua, kae tāpuni ʻe ia ʻa hono fatu meiate ia, ʻoku nofo fēfē ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua ʻiate ia? ʻA ʻeku fānau ʻofeina, ke ʻoua naʻa tau ʻofa ʻi he lea, pe ʻi he ʻelelo; ka ʻi he ngāue mo e moʻoni.
ʻE kāinga ʻofeina, ke tau feʻofaʻaki kiate kitautolu: he ʻoku mei he ʻOtua ʻae ʻofa; pea ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻofa, kuo fanauʻi ia ʻi he ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae ʻOtua.
Ko eni ʻae ʻofa, naʻe ʻikai ko ʻetau ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, ka ko ʻene ʻofa kiate kitautolu, ʻo ne fekau hono ʻAlo ko e feilaulau totongi ʻi heʻetau angahala. ʻE kāinga ʻofeina, kapau naʻe pehē ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua kiate kitautolu, ʻoku totonu foki ʻetau feʻofaʻaki. Kuo ʻikai ha taha ʻe mamata ki he ʻOtua ʻi ha kuonga. Kapau ʻoku tau feʻofaʻaki, ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakitautolu ʻe he ʻOtua, pea kuo fakahaohaoaʻi ʻene ʻofa ʻiate kitautolu.
Kapau ʻe pehē ʻe ha taha, ʻOku ou ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, ka ʻoku fehiʻa ki hono tokoua, ko e loi ia: he ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻofa ki hono tokoua kuo ne mamata ki ai, ʻe fēfē ʻene ʻofa ki he ʻOtua naʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki ai? Pea ko e fekau ni ʻoku tau maʻu meiate ia, Ko ia ia ʻoku ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, ke ʻofa foki ia ki hono tokoua.
