Icipandwa 3
“Uwasalwa Wandi, Uo Umutima Wandi Ucankilwa”!
1, 2. Mulandu nshi icipandwa 42 ica kwa Esaya cikumine Abena Kristu lelo?
“IMWE muli nte shandi, cisemo ca kwa Yehova, kabili muli babomfi bandi abo nasala.” (Esaya 43:10) Uku kubilisha Yehova abilishe, ukwalembelwe na kasesema Esaya mu mwanda wa myaka uwalenga 8 B.C.E., kulangilila ukuti abantu Yehova apingene nabo icipingo aba ku kale bali luko lwa nte. Bali babomfi ba kwa Lesa abasalwa. Ilyo papitile imyaka nalimo 2,600, mu 1931, Abena Kristu basubwa babilishe apabuuta ukuti aya mashiwi yalelosha kuli bene. Baipeele ishina lya Inte sha kwa Yehova kabili balipokelele no mweo onse ukushingamwa konse ukwakuma ku kuba umubomfi wa kwa Lesa uwa pe sonde.
2 Inte sha kwa Yehova balafwaisha ukutemuna Lesa. E mulandu wine, icipandwa 42 ice buuku lya kwa Esaya calikuma nga nshi nte umo umo, pantu cilalondolola bwino pa lwa mubomfi Yehova acankilwa no mubomfi akaana. Ukubebeta uku kusesema no kufikilishiwa kwa kuko kwalatwafwa ukumfwikisha icilenga Lesa ukucankilwa abantu bamo no kukaana bambi.
“Nimbiko Mupashi Wandi Pali Wene”
3. Cinshi Yehova asesema ukupitila muli Esaya pa lwa “mubomfi wandi”?
3 Muli Esaya, Yehova asesema ukwisa kwa mubomfi uo umwine akaisalila, atila: “Moneni umubomfi wandi, uo ntungilila, uwasalwa wandi, uo umutima wandi ucankilwa; nimbiko mupashi wandi pali wene, ku kuleka afumishe ubupingushi ku nko. Takakuute, takasansule ishiwi, nangu kulenge shiwi lyumfwike mu misebo; itete ilyatinika takalifune, iciku icileake cibutubutu takacishimye; akafumisho bupingushi ku cishinka, takatuusuke, kabili takanenuke, akasuke abiko bupingushi pano isonde, ne naamba ne fishi fikalolela amalango yakwe.”—Esaya 42:1-4.
4. Bushe “uwasalwa” uwasobelwe nani, kabili twaishiba shani ici?
4 Bushe uyu Mubomfi walandwa pano nani? Tatulekabila ukutunganya fye. Aya mashiwi pa lwa uyu mubomfi yalyambulwa mwi Landwe lya kwa Mateo kabili yalelosha kuli Yesu Kristu. (Mateo 12:15-21) Yesu e Mubomfi watemwikwa, “uwasalwa.” Ni lilali Yehova abikile umupashi wakwe pali Yesu? Ni mu 29 C.E., ilyo Yesu alebatishiwa. Ifyebo fyapuutwamo filondolola lulya lubatisho no kusosa ati ilyo Yesu atumpwilwe mu menshi, “umuulu waliceneme, no mupashi wa mushilo waliikilile pali wene mu mimonekele ya nkunda; ne shiwi lyafumine mu muulu, aliti, Ni we Mwana wandi, Uwatemwikwa; muli iwe e mo mbekelwa.” Muli iyi nshila Yehova umwine alengele uwali Umubomfi wakwe uwatemwikwa ukwishibikwa. Ubutumikishi ne fipesha amano Yesu acitile pa numa fishinina ukuti umupashi wa kwa Yehova cine cine wali pali wene.—Luka 3:21, 22; 4:14-21; Mateo 3:16, 17.
‘Akafumisha Ubupingushi ku Nko’
5. Mulandu nshi cakabilwe ukulondolola umwalola ubupingushi mu mwanda wa myaka uwa kubalilapo C.E.?
5 Uwasalwa wa kwa Yehova ali no ‘kufumisha,’ nelyo ukulenga ubupingushi bwa cine ukwishibikwa. “Akabilo bupingushi ku bena fyalo.” (Mateo 12:18) Ifyo ico cintu cakabilwe mu mwanda wa myaka uwa kubalilapo C.E.! Ubupingushi intungulushi sha mapepo isha ciYuda shalesambilisha pamo no bulungami fyalinyonganishiwe. Balefwaya ukuba abalungami mu kukonka amafunde yaumina kumo—ayengi ayo abene baipangile. Ubupingushi bwabo ubwaumiine fye ku mafunde tabwakwete luse ne nkumbu.
6. Ni mu nshila nshi Yesu alengele ubupingushi bwa cine ukwishibikwa?
6 Ukupusanako, Yesu alisokolwele ifyo Lesa amona ubupingushi. Mu misambilishishe yakwe ne mikalile, Yesu alangishe ukuti ubupingushi bwa cine bwa nkumbu kabili bwa luse. Shi baleni bebeteni fye Ilyashi lyakwe ilya pa Lupili ilyalumbuka. (Mateo, ifipandwa 5-7) We bulondoloshi ulawama ubwa fyo ubupingushi no bulungami filingile ukucitwa! Bushe ilyo tubelenga ifyalembwa mu Malandwe, imitima yesu taisulamo ukutasha pa nkumbu Yesu aikatilwe ababusu na balanda? (Mateo 20:34; Marko 1:41; 6:34; Luka 7:13) Atwele ubukombe bwa cisansamushi ku bengi abali nga matete ayatinika, kabili ayapetama na yafwantwa. Bali nge ciku cilefuuke cushi, abo lusase lwa kulekeleshako ulwa mweo lwali mupepi no kushima. Yesu tafunine “itete ilyatinika” nangu kushimya “iciku icileake cibutubutu.” Lelo, amashiwi yakwe ayabamo kutemwa kabili aya nkumbu ne fyo alecita fyalesansamusha imitima ya bafuuka.—Mateo 11:28-30.
7. Mulandu nshi ukusesema kwalandile ukuti Yesu ‘takakuute nelyo ukusansula ishiwi lyakwe mu misebo’?
7 Lelo, mulandu nshi, uku kusesema kusosela ukuti Yesu ‘takakuute nelyo ukusansule shiwi, kabili takalenge ishiwi lyakwe ukumfwika mu misebo’? Pantu talefwaya kuitakisha umwine, nge fyalecita abengi mu nshiku shakwe. (Mateo 6:5) Pa kuposho wa fibashi, aebele uyu mwaume waundepwe ati: “Mona, wisosa ku muntu nangu umo.” (Marko 1:40-44) Lelo ukucila ukuti afwaye ukulumbuka no kulenga abantu bomfwe ifya malanda kanwa fye, Yesu alefwaya abene beluke pa kuimwena ubushininkisho bwine bwine ubwa kuti ali e Kristu, Umubomfi wasubwa uwa kwa Yehova.
8. (a) Yesu afumishe shani “ubupingushi ku nko”? (b) Cinshi umulumbe wa kwa Yesu pa lwa mwina Samaria musuma utusambilisha pa lwa bupingushi?
8 Uyu Mubomfi Wasalwa ali no kufumisha “ubupingushi ku nko.” Ne ci e co Yesu acitile. Yesu taakomaile fye pa nkumbu shaba mu bupingushi bwa bulesa, lelo asambilishe no kuti bulingile ukucitilwa abantu bonse. Inshita imo Yesu acinkwileko uwa Malango umo ukuti alingile ukutemwa Lesa no mubiye. Uyu mwaume aipwishe Yesu ati: “Ngo munandi nani?” Nalimo aenekele Yesu ukwasuko kuti: “MuYuda munobe.” Lelo Yesu ashimike umulumbe wa mwina Samaria musuma. Muli uyu mulumbe umwina Samaria ayafwile umwaume uo ifipondo fyawilepo, cibe ninshi umwina Lebi na shimapepo nabakaana ukumwafwilisha. Uyu mwaume waleipusha alisumine ukuti umwina Samaria uo basuulile e wali umunankwe, te ulya mwina Lebi atemwa ulya shimapepo. Pa kusondwelela umulumbe wakwe Yesu amupandile amano ukuti: “Kabiye ulecita ifyo fine na iwe.”—Luka 10:25-37; Ubwina Lebi 19:18.
“Takatuusuke, Kabili Takanenuke”
9. Bushe ukumfwikisha umwalola ubupingushi bwa cine kukakuma shani ubumi bwesu?
9 Apo Yesu alilondolwele bwino ifyo ubupingushi bwa cine bwaba, abasambi bakwe balisambilile ukulangisha iyi mibele. E yo ne fwe tulingile ukulangisha. Ica ntanshi, tulingile ukupokelela amafunde yapampamikwa ya kwa Lesa pa calungama ne calubana, apo alikwate nsambu sha kupima ica bulungi kabili icalungama. Ilyo tuletukuta ukucite fintu ukulingana ne fyo Yehova afwaya, imyendele yesu iyalungama ikasokolola conse ico ubupingushi bwa cine bwaba.—1 Petro 2:12.
10. Mulandu nshi twingasoselo kuti ukulangisha ubupingushi kwendela pamo no kubombako umulimo wa kushimikila no kusambilisha?
10 Na kabili tulalanga ubupingushi bwa cine ilyo tulebombesha mu mulimo wa kushimikila no kusambilisha. Yehova alitusambilisha ifyebo fipususha ubumi ifingi pa lwa mwine, Umwana wakwe, no bufwayo bwakwe. (Yohane 17:3) Tacingaba icalungama atemwa ica bulungi ukukanaebako bambi ukwishiba kwa musango yo. Solomone atile, “Witana busuma ku munobe, ilyo cili mu maka ya kuboko kobe ukubucita.” (Amapinda 3:27) Shi natube aba mweo onse mu kwebako abantu bonse ifyo twaishiba pali Lesa, ukwabula ukusakamana umushobo wabo, umukowa, nelyo icalo bafumako.—Imilimo 10:34, 35.
11. Ilyo tulepashanya Yesu, ni shani tulingile ukumona abantu bambi?
11 Kabili, Umwina Kristu wa cine amona abantu bambi nge fyo Yesu alebamona. Abengi lelo balapita mu mafya ya kufuupula kabili balakabila icisansamushi no kukoseleshiwa. Nangu fye Bena Kristu baipeela balashikitika ku mibele imo ica kuti baba nga matete ayatinika nelyo nge fiku ifilefuuke cushi. Bushe tabakabila kwafwa kwesu? (Luka 22:32; Imilimo 11:23) Mwandi cilapembesula ukuba pa kati ke bumba lya Bena Kristu ba cine, abatukuta ukupashanya Yesu mu kucito bupingushi!
12. Mulandu nshi twingashininkishisha ukuti ubupingushi buli no kucitilwa abantu bonse nomba line?
12 Bushe ubupingushi bukabala abucitilwa abantu bonse? Cine cine, bukacitwa. Uwasalwa wa kwa Yehova “takanenuke, akasuke abiko bupingushi pano isonde.” Nomba line fye Imfumu iyabikwa pa cipuna ca bufumu, Kristu Yesu uwabuushiwa, ali no “kucite cilandushi ku bakaano kwishiba Lesa.” (2 Abena Tesalonika 1:6-9; Ukusokolola 16:14-16) Ukuteka kwa bantunse kukapyanwapo no Bufumu bwa kwa Lesa. Mulya mukesula ubupingushi no bulungami. (Amapinda 2:21, 22; Esaya 11:3-5; Daniele 2:44; 2 Petro 3:13) Ababomfi ba kwa Yehova mwi sonde lyonse—nangu fye abekala mu ncende shaba sheka, mu “naamba ne fishi”—balafulukisha bulya bushiku.
‘Nkamupeela ku Kubo Lubuuto lwa Nko’
13. Cinshi Yehova asesema pa Mubomfi wakwe Uwasalwa?
13 Esaya atwalilila ukusosa ati: “E fyo asosa Lesa [wa cine] Yehova, uwalenga kabili uwayanse myulu, uwasasapule calo ne fifumamo, uupeelo mupu ku bantu ababapo, na bumupashi ku bendapo.” (Esaya 42:5) We mashiwi ulawama aya kulondolola Yehova, Kalenga! Uku kucinkulako pa lwa maka ya kwa Yehova kulenge fyebo fyakwe ukuti ficindamikwe sana. Yehova atila: “Ine Yehova nakwitila ku bulungami, naikata ku minwe yobe no kukulinda, nakupeela ku kube cipingo ca bantu bandi, ku kubo lubuuto lwa nko, ku kushibula amenso ayapofula, ku kufumya abakakwa umwa kwisalilwa, na baikala mu mfifi mu ng’anda ya cifungo.”—Esaya 42:6, 7.
14. (a) Calola mwi ukuti Yehova alekata ku minwe ya Mubomfi wakwe uo acankilwa? (b) Mulimo nshi Umubomfi Wasalwa abomba?
14 Kabumba Wakulisha uwa bubumbo bonse, Kapeela kabili Kabakilila wa bumi, alekata ku minwe ya Mubomfi wakwe Uwasalwa kabili alaya ukutwalilila ukumutungilila mu mbali shonse. Mwandi ayo mashiwi yalapeele subilo! Na kabili, Yehova alamulinda pa kuti amupeele ku kube ‘cipingo ca bantu bakwe.’ Icipingo caba cipangano, nelyo umulapo pa kati ka bantu babili nelyo abengi. Caba cipope icashininkishiwa. Cine cine, Yehova acita Umubomfi wakwe ukube “ciikatilo ku bantu.”—Ukulingana na An American Translation.
15, 16. Ni mu nshila nshi Yesu abela “lubuuto lwa nko”?
15 Apo abo “lubuuto lwa nko,” uyu Mubomfi walaiwa akashibula “amenso ayapofula” no kulubula “abaikala mu mfifi.” Ifi e fyo Yesu acitile. Pa kushimike cine ubunte, Yesu acindamike ishina lya kwa Wishi wa ku muulu. (Yohane 17:4, 6) Asansalike ubufi bwali mu mipepele, ashimikile mbila nsuma pa lwa Bufumu, kabili aiswile umwinshi pa kuti abali mu busha bwa mipepele bengile mu buntungwa bwa ku mupashi. (Mateo 15:3-9; Luka 4:43; Yohane 18:37) Asokele abantu ukukanacite milimo ya mfifi kabili asokolwele Satana ukuti ‘e wishi wa bufi’ kabili e “kateka wa pano isonde.”—Yohane 3:19-21; 8:44; 16:11.
16 Yesu atile: “Nine lubuuto lwa calo.” (Yohane 8:12) Alishinine ukuti e fyo ali mu nshila yaibela lintu apeele ubumi bwakwe ubwa buntunse ubwapwililika ku kube cilubula. E co, alengele kubeko inshila ya kuti aba citetekelo balekelelwemo imembu, babe fibusa fyasuminishiwa ifya kwa Lesa, bakwate ne cilolelo ca bumi bwa muyayaya. (Mateo 20:28; Yohane 3:16) Pa kutwalilila ukuipeela kuli bukapepa ukwapwililika pa nshita yonse iyo ali no mweo, Yesu asumbwile bumulopwe bwa kwa Yehova kabili ashinine Kaseebanya ukubo wa bufi. Cine cine Yesu ali ni kapeela wa menso ku bapofula kabili kalubula wa bakakwa mu mfifi ya ku mupashi.
17. Ni mu nshila nshi tubombela nga bakasenda ba lubuuto?
17 Mu Lyashi lya pa Lupili, Yesu aebele abasambi bakwe ati: “Imwe muli lubuuto lwa pano isonde.” (Mateo 5:14) Bushe na ifwe tatuli bakasenda ba lubuuto? Mu mikalile yesu na mu kushimikila kwesu, twalikwate shuko lya kutungulula bambi kuli Yehova, uwaba e Ntulo ya kushilimuka kwa cine. Pa kupashanya Yesu, tulenga ishina lya kwa Yehova ukwishibikwa, tulasumbula bumulopwe Bwakwe, no kubilisha ukuti Ubufumu Bwakwe e subilo lyeka fye ilya bantunse. Na kabili, ifwe fwe bakasenda ba lubuuto tulasansalika ubufi bwaba mu mipepele, tulasoka abantu ukutaluka ku milimo ya mfifi iyakowela, kabili tulasansalika Satana, umubifi.—Imilimo 1:8; 1 Yohane 5:19.
“Imbeni Kuli Yehova Ulwimbo Lupya”
18. Fintu nshi Yehova alenga abantu bakwe ukwishiba?
18 Yehova nomba alanda ku bantu bakwe ati: “Ine ndi Yehova, e shina lyandi; no bukata bwandi nshibupeela kuli umbi, nangu ukutashiwa kwandi ku fimpashanya. Ifya ntanshi nalongwele, moneni fyaisabako, nomba ndelongole fipya; ilyo tafilamena, ndefilengo kuumfwika kuli imwe.” (Esaya 42:8, 9) Uku kusesema kwa pa “mubomfi wandi” takwalandilwe na kalesa aka pali tulesa twa fye, lelo kwalandilwe na Lesa wa cine umo fye uwa mweo. Ukwabulo kutwishika kwali no kwisafikilishiwa, kabili kwalifikilishiwe. Cine cine Yehova Lesa e Ntulo ya fintu ifipya, kabili alenga abantu bakwe ukufiishiba ilyo fishilacitika. Ni shani tulingile ukwankulako?
19, 20. (a) Lwimbo nshi lulingile ukwimbwa? (b) Ni bani lelo baleimba ulu lwimbo lwa kutasha Yehova?
19 Esaya alemba ati: “Imbeni kuli Yehova ulwimbo lupya, ulwa kumutasha ukutula pa mpela sha pano isonde, mwe batentemukila kuli bemba ne fyaisulamo, mwe naamba ne fishi na baikalamo; amatololo ne mishi ya yako fisansule amashiwi, ne mishi mfula umwaikala Kedari; baaule utupundu abekashi ba pa cilibwe icasumbuka, ukutula pa muulu wa mpili baweleshe. Nabapeele Yehova ubukata, no kubilisho lwa kumutasha mu naamba ne fishi.”—Esaya 42:10-12.
20 Abekashi ba mu mishi, aba mu mishi ya mu matololo, aba mu naamba ne fishi, nangu fye aba mu “Kedar,” atemwa mu nkambi sha mu fiswebebe—abantu konse konse—balecincishiwa ukwimba ulwimbo lwa kutasha Yehova. Mwandi ca kucincimusha ukuti mu nshiku shesu abantu iminshipendwa balyankula kuli ubu bwite bwa mu kusesema! Balipokelela icine icaba mu Cebo ca kwa Lesa kabili balisumina ukuti Yehova e Lesa wabo. Abantu ba kwa Yehova baleimba ulu lwimbo lupya—balepeela ubukata kuli Yehova—mu fyalo ukucila pali 230. Mwandi cilacincimusha ukwimbako ulu lwimbo mu fiunda fya bantu abafuma ku fikulilo, indimi, ne mishobo ifyalekanalekana!
21. Mulandu nshi abalwani ba bantu ba kwa Lesa bashingalesesha ulu lwimbo lwa kutasha Yehova?
21 Bushe bakakanya kuti balwisha Lesa no kulesha ukwimba ulu lwimbo lwa kutasha? Te kuti baluleshe! “Yehova afuma nge mpalume, abuusho kucincila kwakwe ngo muntu wa bulwi; awelesha, cene, abilikisha, acita bumpalume pa balwani bakwe.” (Esaya 42:13) Maka nshi yengalwisha Yehova? Imyaka nalimo 3,500 iyapitapo, kasesema Mose na bana ba Israele baimbile mu ciunda cikalamba abati: “Yehova musalifi ku bulwi: Yehova e shina lyakwe. Amaceleta ya kwa Farao, no mulalo wakwe, napoosa muli bemba; bamushika bakwe abasalwa nabebila muli Bemba Wakashika.” (Ukufuma 15:3, 4) Yehova alicimfishe umulalo wakwatishe amaka pali ilya nshita. Takuli umulwani wa bantu ba kwa Lesa uwingatunguluka ilyo Yehova aya alecimfya nga kacimfya wa maka.
“Nafinde Nshita Nkalamba”
22, 23. Mulandu nshi Yehova ‘afindile nshita nkalamba’?
22 Yehova taba na kapaatulula kabili wa mulinganya, nelyo fye alepingula abalwani bakwe. Atila: “Nafinde nshita nkalamba, natalala, naikaanya, nomba nkatenda ngo mwanakashi uulepaapa, nkapemekesa no kutuusaila; nkapomone mpili no tupili, no kuumiko mulemfwe onse wa shiko, nkasangula ne milonga ukube fishi, no kukamye fishiba.”—Esaya 42:14, 15.
23 Ilyo ashilapingula, Yehova alaleka papite nshita pa kuti apeele incitatubi inshita ya kubwela ku mibele yabo iibi. (Yeremia 18:7-10; 2 Petro 3:9) Bebeteni umulandu wa bena Babele, icalo cakwatisha amaka, abapomona Yerusalemu mu mwaka wa 607 B.C.E. Yehova asuminisha ici pa kuti asalapule abena Israele pa mulandu wa kubulwa ubusumino. Lelo, abena Babele bafilwa ukwishiba apo balingile ukupeleela mu co balecita. Bacito buluku bwabipisha ku bantu ba kwa Lesa ukucile fyo ubupingushi bwa kwa Lesa bukabila. (Esaya 47:6, 7; Sekaria 1:15) Fintu ico cifwile cakalipa Lesa wa cine ukumona uko abantu bakwe balecula! Lelo aikaanya ku kucitapo cimo ukufikila inshita yakwe iyalinga. Lyene ashikitika, ngo mwanakashi uulepaapa, ku kulubula abantu apingana na bo icipingo kabili abalenga ukubo luko lwalubuka. Pa kucite ci, akamya no kupomona Babele mu 539 B.C.E. na fyonse ifyamucingilila.
24. Cilolelo nshi Yehova atambika abantu bakwe Israele?
24 Ifyo abantu ba kwa Lesa bafwile bacincimushiwa ilyo, pa numa ya myaka iingi iya kuba bankole, basuka baiswilwe nshila ya kubwelela ku calo cabo! (2 Imilandu 36:22, 23) Bafwile nababekwa pa kumona ukufikilishiwa kwa bulayo bwa kwa Yehova ubwa kuti: “Nkenshe mpofu mu nshila intu shishaishiba, kabili muli bakumba abo shishaishiba emo nkashitungulula, nkasangule mfifi ulubuuto ku cinso ca shiko, na papondama nkasangula apatambalala. Ifi [e fyo nkabacitila, kabili nshakabashe, NW].”—Esaya 42:16.
25. (a) Cintu nshi abantu ba kwa Yehova lelo bashingatwishika ukuti cikacitika? (b) Mupampamina nshi tulingile ukuba na o?
25 Bushe aya mashiwi yatukumine shani lelo? Kwena, pa nshita ntali nomba—pa myaka iingi nga nshi—Yehova alileka inko ukuicitile fyo shilefwaya. Lelo, inshita yakwe iya kukalulwilamo imilandu naipalama. Muli shino nshiku aliimya abantu aba kushimiko bunte pe shina lyakwe. Pa kutalalika ukukaanya konse ukwisa pali bene, aliwamye nshila ku kuleka bamupepe “mu mupashi na mu cine.” (Yohane 4:24) Alaile ati: “Nshakabashe,” kabili alibake cebo cakwe. Cikaba shani ku batwalilila ukupepa balesa ba bufi? Yehova atila: “Bakafutatwilwa ku numa, bakekatwe nsoni shikalamba, abatetekele fimpashanya ifyabaswa, abatila ku fimpashanya ifyaengwa, Ni mwe milungu yesu.” (Esaya 42:17) Mwandi nacicindama ukuti tutwalilile aba busumino kuli Yehova, nge fyacitile Uwasalwa wakwe!
‘Umubomfi Nkomamatwi Kabili Impofu’
26, 27. Bushe Israele alanga shani ukuti ‘mubomfi nkomamatwi kabili impofu,’ kabili cinshi cikamucitikila?
26 Yesu Kristu, Umubomfi Wasalwa uwa kwa Lesa, atwalilile uwa busumino ukufikile mfwa. Lelo, abantu ba kwa Yehova abena Israele, bena bailanga ukuba umubomfi wabulwo busumino, nkomamatwi kabili impofu lwa ku mupashi. Yehova abebo kuti: “Mwe bankomamatwi, umfweni, mwe mpofu, lolesheni ukuti mumone! Nani uwabe mpofu, kano umubomfi wandi, kabili nkomamatwi nge nkombe yandi intu natuma? Nani uwabe mpofu nga camata wandi, nani uwaba nkomamatwi ngo mubomfi wa kwa Yehova? Wamone fintu ifingi, lelo tawamwensekesha, waba no kukomoka amatwi, lelo tawaumfwapo. Yehova abekelwe, pa mulandu wa bulungami bwakwe, ku kukusha amalango yakwe, no kuyacindamika.”—Esaya 42:18-21.
27 Ku ca bulanda Israele afilililwa fye ukucite ci! Libili libili abantu bakwe bawila mu kupepa balesa ba fibanda aba nko. Yehova atwalilila fye ukubatumina inkombe shakwe libili libili, lelo abantu bakwe te ba kumfwa nakalya. (2 Imilandu 36:14-16) Esaya asobela icili no kubacitikila, atila: “Aba bantu baletapwa no kukunkuntwa, ukucilikilwa mu filindi bonse bene, bafiswa na mu mayanda ya cifungo; baba abatapwa kabili tapali wa kupokolola, baba abakunkuntwa kabili tapali uwa kutila, Bwesha. Nani uwa muli imwe akutika kuli ici, uukapeepeka no kuumfwa ku nshita iikakonkapo, ilyo nkatila, Nani apeele Yakobo ku kubo wakunkuntwa, na Israele ku kuba ku baletapa? Bushe te Yehova uo twabembukako, uo tabatemenwe ukwenda mu mibele yakwe, no kukanaumfwa ku malango yakwe? Nani apongolwelele pali bene icipyu ca bukali bwakwe, no bukalushi bwa bulwi, icabasonteka konse konse, lelo tabaishiba, kabili caboca, lelo tababikapo imitima?”—Esaya 42:22-25.
28. (a) Finshi twingasambililako ku ca kumwenako ca bekashi ba mu Yuda? (b) Kuti twafwaya shani ukuti Yehova alecankilwa muli ifwe?
28 Pa mulandu wa kubulwo busumino ukwa bekashi bakwe, Yehova aleka icalo ca Yuda ukutapwa no kukunkuntwa mu 607 B.C.E. Abena Babele baoca itempele lya kwa Yehova, basha Yerusalemu amapopa, kabili basenda na baYuda bunkole. (2 Imilandu 36:17-21) Shi natuleibukisha ici ca kumwenako ca kusoka kabili twikatala atukoma amatwi no kukanaumfwila ukufunda kwa kwa Yehova atemwa ukuba impofu no kusuula Icebo cakwe icalembwa. Lelo, shi natufwaye ukuti Yehova alecankilwa muli ifwe pa kupashanya Kristu Yesu, Umubomfi uo Yehova umwine acankilwamo. Shi natupashanye Yesu, pa kulenga ubupingushi bwa cine ukwishibikwa mu fyo tusosa no kucita. Nga twacite fyo, tukatwalilila ukuba pa kati ka bantu ba kwa Yehova abasenda ulubuuto kabili abatasha Lesa wa cine no kumupeelo bukata.
