Colheita
A colheita é princípio bíblico universal: colhemos o que semeamos. Quem semeia na fé e obediência colherá bênçãos abundantes do Senhor.
Semear e colher
Quem semeia no Espírito, do Espírito colherá vida eterna. Não nos cansemos de fazer o bem — ao tempo certo colheremos.
He ko ia ʻoku tūtuuʻi ki hono kakano, te ne utu ʻi he kakano ʻae ʻauha; ka ko ia ʻoku tūtuuʻi ki he Laumālie, te ne utu ʻi he Laumālie ʻae moʻui taʻengata.
ʻOua naʻa kākaaʻi ʻakimoutolu; ʻoku ʻikai faʻa kākaaʻi ʻae ʻOtua: he ko ia ʻoku tūtuuʻi ʻe he tangata, ko ia te ne utu foki.
Pea ke ʻoua naʻa tau fiu ʻi he fai lelei: he te tau utu ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu totonu, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te tau vaivai.
Pea ko eni, ko ia ʻoku ne foaki ʻae tengaʻi ʻakau ki he tūtuuʻi, ʻofa ke ne foaki ʻae mā ke mou kai, pea fakatupu hoʻomou tenga kuo tūtuuʻi, pea fakalahi ʻae ngaahi fua ʻo hoʻomou māʻoniʻoni;)
Pea kuo tūtuuʻi ʻae fua ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ʻi he melino maʻanautolu ʻoku faʻa fakalelei.
Ko eni, ʻoku ʻikai ha fiefia lolotonga ha tautea, ka ko e mamahi: hili ange ia ʻoku tupu ʻae fua fakamelino ʻoe māʻoniʻoni kiate kinautolu kuo akonekina ai.
Fidelidade na semeadura
Honra ao Senhor com as tuas primícias. O Senhor abrirá as janelas do céu e derramará bênção sem medida.
Fakaʻapaʻapa kia Sihova ʻaki hoʻo koloa,
pea mo e ʻuluaki fua ʻo hoʻo meʻa kotoa pē kuo tupu:
Mou ʻomi ʻae ngaahi vahe hongofulu ʻoe meʻa ki he tukunga koloa, koeʻuhi ke ai ha meʻakai ʻi hoku fale, pea mou ʻahiʻahi ai au," ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻoe ngaahi kautau, "Pe te u fakaava ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe langi pe ʻikai, pea u lilingi hifo kiate kimoutolu ha tāpuaki, ʻe ʻikai ha potu ʻe faʻa hao ia ki ai.
"Kapau ʻoku mou ʻalu ʻi heʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, pea tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea fai ki ai; Te u tuku ai kiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻuha ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu lelei, pea ʻe tupu ʻi he fonua ʻa hono fua, pea ʻe tupu mei he ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe ngoue honau ngaahi fua.
Vakai ki he fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā: ʻoku ʻikai te nau tūtuuʻi pe tuʻusi, pe fetuku ki ha feleoko; ka ʻoku fafanga ʻakinautolu ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻi he langi. ʻIkai ʻoku lahi hake ʻakimoutolu ʻiate kinautolu?
ʻOku mōmoa ʻae vaine, ʻoku vaivai ʻae ʻakau ko e fiki;
ko e ʻakau ko e pomikanite, mo e ʻakau ko e ponga,
mo e ʻakau ko e ʻapele foki, ʻio, ko e ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue ʻoku mae;
koeʻuhi ʻoku mate ʻae fiefia mei he loto ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata.
Neongo ʻene ʻikai fisi ʻae ʻakau ko e fiki,
pea ʻe ʻikai ha fua ʻi he ngaahi vaine;
pea kovi ʻae tupu ʻoe ʻolive,
pea ʻe ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi ngoue ha meʻakai;
pea ʻe motuhi ʻae fanga sipi mei he lotoʻā,
pea ʻe ʻikai ha fanga manu ʻi he ngaahi tuʻunga:
Ka neongo ia te u fiefia ʻia Sihova,
pea u nekeneka ʻi he ʻOtua ʻo hoku fakamoʻui.
