Graça
A graça de Deus é favor imerecido. Pela graça somos salvos, pela graça vivemos, pela graça somos sustentados. É o dom mais precioso de Deus — dado a quem não merece.
Salvos pela graça
Pela graça sois salvos, mediante a fé, e isto não vem de vós — é dom de Deus. Não por obras, para que ninguém se glorie.
He ʻoku mou moʻui ʻi he ʻofa pe ʻi he tui; pea ʻoku ʻikai meiate kimoutolu ia: ka ko e foaki ʻae ʻOtua: ʻOku ʻikai ʻi he ngaahi ngāue, telia naʻa polepole ai ha tangata.
Ka ko e ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku mohu ʻaloʻofa, ʻi heʻene ʻofa lahi naʻa ne ʻofeina ai ʻakitautolu, ʻIo, lolotonga ʻetau mate ʻi he ngaahi angahala, kuo ne fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu fakataha mo Kalaisi, (kuo mou moʻui ʻi he ʻofa;)
He kuo fai angahala kotoa pē, pea tomui ʻi he fakamālō mei he ʻOtua. Pea ʻoku fakatonuhiaʻi ko e ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pē ʻi heʻene ʻaloʻofa, koeʻuhi ko e totongi huhuʻi ʻaia ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi Sisu:
Ka ʻoku ʻikai ke fai tatau ʻae fai hala mo e foaki ʻofa. He kapau kuo mate ʻae tokolahi ʻi he fai hala ʻae tokotaha, pehē, kuo aʻu ʻo lahi hake ʻaupito ki he tokolahi ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, mo e foaki ʻi he ʻofa, ʻi he tangata pe taha, ko Sisu Kalaisi.
Koeʻuhi ke hangē ko e pule ʻae angahala ʻo aʻu ki he mate, ke pehē ʻae pule ʻoe ʻofa ʻi he fakatonuhia ʻo aʻu ki he moʻui taʻengata ʻi hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
Graça que capacita
A graça me basta, pois o poder se aperfeiçoa na fraqueza. Na graça, não estamos mais sob a lei, mas sob o favor de Deus.
He koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai puleʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he angahala: he ʻoku ʻikai te mou moʻulaloa ki he fono, ka ki he ʻofa.
Pea fēfē ai? Te tau fai angahala, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te tau moʻulaloa ki he fono, ka ki he ʻofa? ʻE ʻikai ʻaupito.
ʻAia kuo ne fakamoʻui ʻo ne ui ʻakitautolu ʻi he uiuiʻi māʻoniʻoni, ʻo ʻikai fakatatau mo e tau ngaahi ngaue, ka ʻoku fakatatau mo ʻene tuʻutuʻuni, mo e ʻaloʻofa ʻaia naʻe foaki kiate kitautolu ʻia Kalaisi Sisu ʻi he teʻeki ai tuʻu ʻa māmani,
He ko e ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku ne ʻomi ʻae fakamoʻui ki he kakai kotoa pē, kuo hā mai ia, ʻO ne akonekina ʻakitautolu, ke siʻaki ʻae anga taʻefakaʻotua mo e ngaahi holi fakamaama, ka tau moʻui anga fakapotopoto, mo māʻoniʻoni, mo angafakaʻotua, ʻi he māmani;
Ko ia ke nonoʻo ʻae noʻotanga vala ʻa homou loto, pea leʻo, ʻo ʻamanaki lelei ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga, ki he lelei ʻe ʻomi kiate kimoutolu ʻi he fakahā ʻo Sisu Kalaisi;
Ka ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ʻaloʻofa kotoa pē, kuo ne uiuiʻi ʻakitautolu ki hono nāunau taʻengata ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, ʻoka hili hoʻomou kātaki siʻi pe, ke fakahaohaoa, mo fakatuʻumaʻu, mo fakamālohi, mo fokotuʻumaʻu ʻakimoutolu.
A graça de Deus
O Senhor é compassivo e gracioso, tardio em irar-se e grande em amor. Sua graça é nova a cada manhã.
ʻOku manavaʻofa mo angalelei ʻa Sihova, ʻoku faʻa kātaki,
pea mohu ʻaloʻofa.
Ko e moʻoni ʻe muimui ʻiate au ʻae lelei mo e ʻaloʻofa ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻeku moʻui:
pea te u nofo ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova ʻo lauikuonga.
Pea ke ʻiate kimautolu ʻae lelei ʻo Sihova ko homau ʻOtua:
pea ke fokotuʻu ke maʻu ʻae ngāue ʻa homau nima kiate kimautolu;
ʻio, ko e ngāue ʻa homau nima ke fakamaau ia.
ʻE Sihova, naʻaku tangi kiate koe mei he ngaahi moana.
ʻE ʻEiki, ke ke ongoʻi hoku leʻo:
fakatokangaʻi ho fofonga ki he leʻo ʻo ʻeku ngaahi lotu tāumaʻu.
‘Ke fakamonūʻia ko e ʻe Sihova, ʻo tauhi koe:
Ke tuku ʻe Sihova ke ulo hono fofonga kiate koe,
ʻo ne ʻaloʻofa kiate koe:
Ke hiki hake ʻe Sihova ʻa hono fofonga kiate koe,
ʻo tuku ʻae fiemālie kiate koe.’
Pea ko ia ʻe tatali ai ʻa Sihova, koeʻuhi ke ne ʻaloʻofa kiate kimoutolu, pea ko ia ʻe fakahikihikiʻi ia, koeʻuhi ke ne ʻaloʻofa kiate kimoutolu: he ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoe fakamaau: ʻoku monūʻia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tatali kiate ia.
Viver pela graça
A graça de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo esteja convosco. Perdoando e confessando, experimentamos a graça restauradora.
Ko e ʻaloʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē. ʻEmeni.
Ko e ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi ke ʻi ho laumālie. ʻEmeni.
Ko ia ke tau haʻu mālohi ai ki he ʻafioʻanga ʻoe ʻaloʻofa, koeʻuhi ke tau maʻu ʻae ʻaloʻofa, pea ʻilo mo e foaki ʻofa, ke tokoni mai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ʻaonga ai.
Ka ʻoku ʻikai ueʻi ai au, pea ʻoku ʻikai foki te u lau ko e meʻa mahuʻinga kiate au ʻeku moʻui, kae kehe ke u fakaʻosi ʻi he fiefia ʻeku lakanga, mo e ngāue kuo u maʻu mei he ʻEiki ko Sisu, ke u fakamoʻoni ki he ongoongolelei ʻoe ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua.
He naʻe ʻofa pehē ʻae ʻOtua ki māmani, naʻa ne foaki hono ʻAlo pe taha naʻe fakatupu, koeʻuhi ko ia kotoa pē ʻe tui kiate ia ke ʻoua naʻa ʻauha, kae maʻu ʻae moʻui taʻengata.
"He kapau te mou fakamolemole ʻae angahala ʻae kakai, ʻe fakamolemolea ʻakimoutolu ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻi he langi.
ʻE ʻikai monūʻia ia ʻaia ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻene ngaahi angahala:
ka ko ia ʻoku vete ia mo liʻaki ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ʻae ʻaloʻofa.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Hesekaia ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē mo Siuta, pea tohi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi tohi foki ki ʻIfalemi mo Manase, koeʻuhi ke nau haʻu ki he fale ʻo Sihova ʻi Selūsalema, ke fai ʻa e kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli. He naʻe fakakaukau ʻe he tuʻi mo hono ngaahi houʻeiki, mo e fakataha kotoa ʻi Selūsalema, ke fai ʻa e kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina. He naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia koeʻuhi naʻe teʻeki ai fakaʻosi ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ke lahi ki ai, pea naʻe teʻeki ai fakakātoa ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai ki Selūsalema. Pea naʻe fiemālie ai ʻae tuʻi pea mo e kakai fakataha kotoa pē. Pea naʻa nau tuʻutuʻuni ʻae fono ke fanongonongo kalanga ʻi ʻIsileli kotoa pē, mei Peasipa ki Tani, koeʻuhi ke nau haʻu ke fai ʻa e kātoanga ʻoe Lakaatu kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi Selūsalema: he naʻe ʻikai te nau fai ia ʻo fuoloa ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe tohi. Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kau ʻave tohi mo e ngaahi tohi mei he tuʻi mo hono houʻeiki ki he potu kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli mo Siuta, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻae tuʻi ʻo pehē, "ʻAe ngaahi fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mou toe tafoki kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo ʻIsileli pea ʻe tafoki mai ia kiate kimoutolu ʻoku toe, ʻakimoutolu kuo hao mei he nima ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia. Pea ʻoua naʻa mou hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, pea hangē ko homou ngaahi kāinga, ʻaia naʻe fai angahala kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he malaʻia, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku mou mamata ki ai. Pea ko eni ke ʻoua naʻa mou kia kekeva, ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, kae tukuange ʻakimoutolu kia Sihova, pea hū ki hono fale nofoʻanga, ʻaia naʻe fakatapui ke taʻengata: pea tauhi ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke tafoki hono houhau lahi meiate kimoutolu. He kapau te mou toe tafoki kia Sihova, ʻe ʻilo ʻe homou ngaahi kāinga mo hoʻomou fānau ʻae angaʻofa ʻi he ʻao ʻokinautolu naʻe taki ʻo fakapōpulaʻi ʻakinautolu, ko ia te nau toe haʻu ai ki he fonua ni: he ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ʻoku angalelei ia mo angaʻofa, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne kalofaki hono fofonga meiate kimoutolu, ʻo kapau te mou tafoki kiate ia." Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae kau ʻave tohi mei he kolo ki he kolo ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIfalemi mo Manase, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki Sepuloni: ka naʻa nau kata manuki kiate kinautolu, pea taukae ʻakinautolu. Ka naʻe ai ʻae niʻihi ʻi ʻAseli mo Manase, mo Sepuloni, naʻa nau fakavaivai ʻakinautolu, pea haʻu ki Selūsalema. Pea naʻe ʻi Siuta foki ʻae nima ʻoe ʻOtua ke foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae loto taha ke fai ʻae fekau ʻae tuʻi mo e houʻeiki, ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova.
Pea naʻe fakakātoa ʻi Selūsalema ʻae fuʻu kakai lahi ke fai ʻae kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻefakalēvani ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina, ko e fakataha lahi ʻaupito. Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hake ʻo fetuku ʻo liʻaki ʻae ngaahi feilaulauʻanga naʻe ʻi Selūsalema, pea nau ʻave ke mamaʻo ʻae ngaahi feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa namu kakala, ʻo liʻaki ia ki he vaitafe ko Kitiloni. Pea naʻa nau toki tāmateʻi ʻa e manu ʻoe Lakaatu ʻi hono hongofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina: pea naʻe maʻae kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai, ʻonau fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu, ʻonau ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu ki he fale ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻa nau tuʻu ʻi honau potu ʻo taau mo honau anga, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Mōsese ko e tangata ʻae ʻOtua: naʻe luluku ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae toto, ʻaia naʻa nau maʻu mei he nima ʻoe kau Livai. He naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tokolahi ʻi he fakataha naʻe ʻikai fakamaʻa: ko ia naʻe ʻi he kau Livai ʻae fekau ki he tāmateʻi ʻoe ngaahi manu ʻoe Lakaatu, maʻanautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻikai maʻa, ke fakatapui ʻakinautolu kia Sihova. He ko e kakai tokolahi, ʻio, ʻae tokolahi ʻo ʻIfalemi, mo Manase, mo ʻIsaka, mo Sepuloni, naʻe teʻeki ai te nau fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu, ka naʻa nau kai ʻae Lakaatu kae ʻikai hangē ko ia kuo tohi. Ka naʻe lotua ʻakinautolu ʻe Hesekaia, ʻo pehē, "ʻE Sihova lelei fakamolemolea ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ʻOku teuteu honau loto ke kumi ki he ʻOtua, ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai, ka ʻoku teʻeki ai fakamaʻa ia ʻo fakatatau ki he fakamaʻa ʻoe fale nofoʻanga." Pea naʻe tokanga ʻe Sihova kia Hesekaia, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻae kakai. Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe ʻi Selūsalema ʻae kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻefakalēvani ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu ʻi he fiefia lahi: pea naʻe fakaongo lelei ʻa Sihova ʻe he kau Livai mo e kau taulaʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho hokohoko pe, ʻi he hiva mo e meʻa faiva leʻo lahi kia Sihova. Pea naʻe lea fakafiemālie ʻe Hesekaia ki he kau Livai kotoa pē naʻe akonaki ʻi he ʻilo lelei ʻo Sihova: pea naʻa nau kai kotoa pē lolotonga ʻae kātoanga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, ʻo ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei, ʻo fai ʻenau vete kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai. Pea naʻe alea fakataha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ke toe tauhi mo e ʻaho ʻe fitu: pea naʻa nau tauhi ʻae ʻaho kehe ʻe fitu ʻi he fiefia. He naʻe foaki ʻe Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki he kakai fakataha ʻae fanga pulu ʻe taha afe, mo e sipi ʻe fitu afe: pea foaki ʻe he houʻeiki ki he kakai fakataha ʻae fanga pulu ʻe taha afe mo e sipi ʻe taha mano: pea naʻe fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki tokolahi.

Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai ʻonau tāpuakiʻi ʻae kakai: pea naʻe ongoʻi honau leʻo, pea naʻe aʻu atu ʻenau lotu ki hono ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he langi.
