Gɔd in oli spirit go ɛp wi fɔ gɛt kwaliti dɛn we wi Gɔd we gɛt pawa pas ɔlman gɛt.

We wi gɛt dɛn gud kwaliti dɛn ya, wi padi biznɛs wit ɔda pipul dɛn go go bifo, ɛn wi go avɔyd ɛnitin we go mek wi wɔri. Lɛ wi si aw di kwaliti dɛn we di spirit de gi go ɛp wi sɔm patikyula we dɛn.

We wi gɛt gud kwaliti dɛn, wi padi biznɛs wit ɔda pipul dɛn go go bifo
9 “Peshɛnt, . . . bisin bɔt ɔda pɔsin, . . . du gud.” Di Baybul se: “Una fɔ de du gud ɛn gɛt sɔri at fɔ una kɔmpin. Una fɔ de padin [“fɔgiv”, NW] una kɔmpin” dɛn. (Lɛta Fɔ Ɛfisɔs 4:32) We wi fala dis advays, wi go gɛt pis wit ɔda pipul dɛn, ɛn wi go avɔyd tin dɛn we go mek wi wɔri. Ɛn i go izi bak fɔ lɛ wi sɔlv prɔblɛm dɛn we kin kam wi we bikɔs wi nɔ pafɛkt.

I dɔn prɔmis wi se: “A nɔ go ɛva lɛf una, ɛn a nɔ go tɔn mi bak pan una.” Na dat mek wi go tɔk lɛk Pɔl se “Na Jiova de ɛp mi; a nɔ go fred. Wetin Mɔtalman go ebul du to mi?”—Di Ibru Pipul Dɛn 13:5, 6, NW.
11 “I de ɛp wi nɔ fɔ vɛks kwik, i de ɛp wi fɔ kɔntrol wisɛf.” Tink bɔt aw yu go bɛnifit we yu kɔntrol yusɛf ɛn nɔ vɛks kwik. Dɛn kwaliti dɛn ya go ɛp yu fɔ avɔyd fɔ du ɔ se sɔntin we go mek yu wɔri, ɛn yu go bɛnifit we yu nɔ “gɛt bad at,” “wam at,” ɛn we yu nɔ de “ala pan ɛnibɔdi” ɔ “kɔs.”—Lɛta Fɔ Ɛfisɔs 4:31.
12 Yu nid fɔ put yusɛf dɔŋ fɔ abop pan “Gɔd in pawaful an” ɛn fɔ “lɛf ɔltin we de wɔri [yu] na Gɔd in an.” (Pita In Fɔs Lɛta 5:6, 7, NW) If yu put yusɛf dɔŋ, Jiova go sɔpɔt yu ɛn kia fɔ yu. We yu no wetin yu ebul fɔ du ɛn wetin yu nɔ ebul fɔ du, dat go mek yu nɔ abop pan yusɛf. Yu nɔ go wɔri bɔt sɔntin pasmak bikɔs yu go abop pan Gɔd.—Mayka 6:8.
“UNA FƆ LƐF TUMARA YON WƆRI”
13. Wetin Jizɔs bin min we i se: “Una fɔ lɛf tumara yon wɔri”?
13 Na Matyu 6:34 (rid), Jizɔs bin advays wi se: “Una fɔ lɛf tumara yon wɔri.” I go luk lɛk se wi nɔ go ebul fɔ fala dis advays. Bɔt wetin Jizɔs bin min? Wi bin dɔn ɔlrɛdi lan se sɔntɛnde Devid ɛn Pɔl bin de wɔri. Jizɔs nɔ bin min se pɔsin we de sav Gɔd nɔ go ɛva wɔri.

Wan wan tɛm Kiŋ Devid bin de fil bad fɔ di mistek dɛn we i bin dɔn mek. I bin tɔk se: “A de pini ol de bikɔs mi at so ebi.” (Sam 38:3, 4, 8, 18) Di tɛm we Devid bin de fil dis we, i bin du sɔntin we mek sɛns. I bin biliv se Jiova go sɔri fɔ am ɛn fɔgiv am. Ɛn Devid bin gladi fɔ no se Gɔd dɔn fɔgiv am.—Rid Sam 32:1-3, 5.
