Não temas
'Não temas' é uma das frases mais repetidas na Bíblia. Deus a pronuncia nos momentos de maior temor, lembrando que sua presença e poder são maiores que qualquer ameaça.
Deus está contigo
Não temas, porque eu sou contigo. Deus repete essa promessa em cada crise, guerra e desafio que seus filhos enfrentam.
ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē; he ʻoku ou ʻiate koe:
ʻoua ʻe loto vaivai; he ko au ko ho ʻOtua,
te u fakamālohi koe;
ʻio, te u tokoni koe;
ʻio, te u poupou hake koe ʻaki ʻae nima toʻomataʻu ʻo ʻeku angatonu.
He ko au ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua te u puke ho nima toʻomataʻu,
ʻo pehē kiate koe, ‘ʻOua ʻe manavahē;
te u tokoni koe.’
ʻOua naʻa manavahē ʻa koe, ko e kelemutu ko Sēkope,
pea mo kimoutolu ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli;
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko ho huhuʻi,
ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli, te u tokoni kiate koe.
ʻA koe, ʻoku ʻomi ʻae ongoongolelei ki Saione, ʻalu hake koe ki he moʻunga māʻolunga;
ʻa koe, ʻoku ʻomi ʻae ongoongolelei ki Selūsalema,
hiki hake ho leʻo ʻi he mālohi;
hiki hake ia ʻoua ʻe manavahē;
ke ke pehē ki he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, "Vakai ki homou ʻOtua!"
ʻIkai ko au kuo u fekauʻi koe? Ke ke mālohi koe pea ke lototoʻa; ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē, pea ʻoua naʻa ke puputuʻu: he ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻoku ʻiate koe ia ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai."
Ke ke mālohi koe pea ke lototoʻa, ʻoua naʻa ke lilika, pea ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē kiate kinautolu: he ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ko ia ia ʻoku mo ō mo koe; ʻe ʻikai te ne fakatukutukuʻi koe, pe liʻaki koe."
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe haʻu ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻEpalame ʻi he meʻa hā mai ʻo pehē, "ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē ʻEpalame: ko ho ungaʻanga au, mo ho totongi lahi ʻaupito."
Coragem diante do perigo
Não tenhas medo — o Senhor teu Deus está no meio de ti, poderoso para salvar. Ele luta por nós e dá forças aos medrosos.
ʻE pehē ki Selūsalema ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, "ʻOua te ke manavahē: pea ki Saione, ʻoua naʻa tuku ke vaivai ho nima." ʻOku māfimafi ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoʻou; te ne fakamoʻui, te ne fiefia ʻiate koe, ʻaki ʻae fiefia: ʻe mālōlō ʻe ia ʻi heʻene ʻofa, te ne fiefia ʻiate koe ʻaki ʻae hiva.
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, "ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē: he ko kinautolu ʻoku kau mai kiate kitaua ʻoku tokolahi hake ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku kau kiate kinautolu." Pea naʻe lotu ʻa ʻIlaisa, ʻo ne pehē, "ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakaʻā ʻa hono mata, koeʻuhi ke ne mamata." Pea naʻe fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻoe talavou ʻe Sihova; pea naʻa ne sio: pea vakai, naʻe fonu ʻae moʻunga ʻi he fanga hoosi mo e ngaahi saliote afi naʻe nofo takatakai ʻia ʻIlaisa.
"ʻE fonua, ʻoua naʻa manavahē;
fiefia pea nekeneka: koeʻuhi ʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa lahi.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, "ʻOua naʻa ke pehē, ko e tamasiʻi koe: ka ke ʻalu kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ou fekau koe ki ai, pea ko ia te u fekau kiate koe ke ke lea ʻaki. Pea ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē ki honau mata: he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻoku ou ʻiate koe, ke fakamoʻui koe."
Pea folofola ai ʻae ʻEiki kia Paula ʻi he poʻuli, ʻi he meʻa naʻe hā mai, "ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē, ka ke lea, pea ʻoua naʻa ke fakalongo pē; He ʻoku ou ʻiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai ha tangata te ne faʻa fai ha kovi kiate koe; he ʻoku ou maʻu ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻi he kolo ni."
"Pea ko koe, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata, ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē kiate kinautolu pea ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē ki heʻenau lea, neongo hoʻo ʻi he ʻakau talatala mo e talatalaʻāmoa, pea ke nofo hifo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi sikopio: ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē ki heʻenau lea, pea ʻoua naʻa ke lilika ʻi heʻenau sio: ka ko e moʻoni ko e fale angatuʻu ʻakinautolu. Pea te ke lea ʻaki ʻe koe ʻa ʻeku ngaahi lea kiate kinautolu, pe te nau loto ke fanongo ki ai, pe te nau taʻeloto ki ai he ʻoku lahi ʻaupito ʻenau angatuʻu.
Fé que vence o medo
O medo não vem de Deus. Jesus disse: não temas, crê somente! A fé dissipa o medo e nos conecta ao poder de Deus.
Pea kuo fanongo leva ʻe Sisu ki he lea naʻe lea ʻaki, pea pehē ʻe ia ki he pule ʻoe falelotu, "ʻOua te ke manavahē, ka ke tui pe."
ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē ki ha meʻa ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ko ia te ke mamahi ai: vakai, ʻe lī ʻe he tēvolo ʻa homou niʻihi ki he fale fakapōpula, ko homou ʻahiʻahiʻi, pea te mou moʻua ʻi he mamahi ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu—ka ke fai angatonu pe ʻo aʻu ki he mate, pea te u foaki kiate koe ʻae pale ʻoe moʻui.
Pea ʻoua naʻa manavahē kiate kinautolu ʻoku tāmateʻi ʻae sino, ka ʻoku ʻikai faʻa tāmateʻi ʻae laumālie: kae manavahē muʻa kiate ia ʻoku mafai ke fakaʻauha ʻae laumālie mo e sino ʻi heli.
Kae lolotonga ʻene fifili ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻiloange, kuo hā mai kiate ia ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻEiki ʻi he misi, ʻo ne pehē, "Siosefa, foha ʻo Tevita, ʻoua te ke manavahē ke maʻu ʻa Mele ko ho uaifi: he ko ia kuo fakatupu ʻiate ia ʻoku mei he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.
Pea pehē ʻe he ʻāngelo kiate ia, "Mele, ʻoua ʻe manavahē: he ʻoku ke ʻofeina mei he ʻOtua.
Pea kuo mamata ʻa Saimone Pita, pea fakatōmapeʻe ia ki he tui ʻo Sisu, ʻo ne pehē, "ʻE ʻEiki, ʻalu ʻiate au; he ko e tangata angahala au."
