Difuku Dya Yehova Dibafwena
“Ivwanai kino banwe bana-balume banunu, fwenyai kutwi banwe bonsololo bekele muntanda’ya.”—YOELA 1:2.
“YO! DIFUKU i dine’di! mwanda difuku dya Yehova didi pabwipi ponka, ino difikanga’nka bwa kyonakanya kitamba kudi Mwinebukomobonso.” Bine, luno lwādi lubila lwa malwa! Wādi musapu wa Leza kudi bantu bandi wāsapwilwe na mupolofeto wandi Yoela.
2 Bino binenwa bidi mu Yoela 1:15 byālembelwe mu Yuda kubwipi na mwaka wa 820 K.K.K. Papo mikuna yādi ikishipuka mamuna mabishi mu ntanda monso. Kwādi kukidi miseke ne bipa bya ntanda ne ntanda. Ne madyo makatampe a biyombo bibishi. Inoko kwādi kintu kimo kibi bininge. Mutōtelo wa Bala wāsambakene mu Yelusalema ne mu ntanda ya Yuda. Bantu bepāna mu kukolwa malwa a pwilai kuno ku meso a uno leza wabubela. (Enzankanya na 2 Bilongwa 21:4-6, 11.) Lelo Yehova wādi wa kuleka bino byonso byendelela’nka nabya?
3 Mukanda wa mu Bible wa Yoela kewitufindilepo kilondololwa. Yehova Leza wādi wa kubingija bubikadi bwandi ne kulombola’mba dijina dyandi i dijila. Difuku dikatakata dya Yehova dyādi ke difwene. Leza wādi wa kufikidija butyibi bwandi pa mizo yonso mu “musanza wa Yehoshafata.” (Yoela 3:12) Eyo, ilongolole shayo kwiya kutamba Yehova Mwinebukomobonso divita. Ne batwe netu tutengele difuku dikatakata dya Yehova. Shi ke pano tubandaulei bidi binenwa bya Yoela bya bupolofeto bitala pa ano etu mafuku ne pa mafuku a kala.
Kutambwa na Bīshi
4 Yehova unena kupityila kudi mupolofeto wandi amba: “Ivwanai kino banwe bana-balume banunu, fwenyai kutwi banwe bonsololo bekele muntanda’ya. Lelo kine kino’ki kyaikelepo mu mafuku enu, nansha mu mafuku a bashenu’ni, a? Sapwilai’kyo ku benu bāna, kadi, benu bāna nabo basapwile babo bāna, ne babo bāna nabo basapwile ku lukongo lukwabo.” (Yoela 1:2, 3) Bakulumpe ne bantu bonso bādi ba kutengela kintu kyādi kekyamwenwe kashāa mu mafuku abo nansha mu a bankambo babo. Wādi wa kwikala mwanda wa nkuo, wa kushala usekununwa ne ku lukongo lwabusatu! Akyo kine kyādi kinkumenkume’ka? Shi tusaka kwikiyuka, twimonei pamo bwa batwe badi mu mafuku a Yoela.
5 Teja! Yoela wateleka mushindo utamba kulampe. Diulu dibafita fututu, ñanji ilenga nzuba yenda ivula, papo fukutu po pene wafita ne midima fututu. Kupwa wamone kidi bwa dikumbi dikakuka mwishi kitūka. Watadija, i kibumbo kya bīshi bisakanya. Byonka bileta musala byamwiko! Pano tubandaulei bidi Yoela 1:4. Bino bīshi bya kyonakanya ke’nkapo njie ya masala kete, idyanga kupwa yaviluka. Ehe! Kwiyanga ne bibumbo bya biboto bya nzala ya kasha bukya, byenda bibosoka. Njie mipepulwe na luvula iponanga kilukute, yenda ivumija mushindo pamo bwa mushindo wa makalo. (Yoela 2:5) Njie midiyo ikokeja kudya bya umbudimi byonso bukidibukidi bonka, bwashala’nka kyano, mwanda idi na ludyo lubi.
6 Kadi kwiyanga ne myungwila ya—byana bya bipupulu bya bufuku ne bya mwinya. Bibumbo bya myungwila kebyo kudya mani a munamuna, bilonda mudimbo ne mudimbo, dyani ne dyani kufika ne pakashala mityi tōo, mikololwe musombelo onso wa mani a lulundu. Byobya byobishiya, njie yadya’byo. Nsubukila ishalanga, batēte nabo baiya bakombelela yonso. Ino yuka kino: Mu Yoela shapita 2, vese 11, Leza utela kibumbo kya njie bu kibumbo kya “divita dyandi.” Kino kilombola’mba, Leza ye wādi Nsulo ya kinzengele kya njie kyādi kya kusala ntanda’ya ne kuleta nzala mikomokomo. Kitatyi’ka? Kumeso’tu kwa “difuku dya Yehova.”
“Langukai Banwe Bakolwa”!
7 Bendeji ba bipwilo ba Yuda bātumbīle bintu bikobakane bo bene bādi belwa luno lubila’mba: “Langukai banwe bakolwa, dilai impolo; kadi bulukai banwe bonsololo batomi ba vinyu, mwanda wa vinyu itobala; ke-mintu ibafundulwa ku kyakanwa kyenu.” (Yoela 1:5) Eyo, bankolwankolwa ba kumushipiditu bene Yuda bānenwe ‘kulanguka,’ kuleka kukolwa. Ino ketwakilangai amba ino mānga yāpityile’nka pa kala kwāpwididila. Ne pano kepafikile difuku dikatakata dya Yehova, bakulumpe ba Bipwilo bya Ki-kidishitu i batondwe vinyu itobala ya kyelekejo, o mwanda bapumpunya uno musoñanya utamba kudi Mwinemukatakatamwine. Bine, bakatulumuka bininge pobakalangulwa mu tulo twabo twa bukolwe bwa kumushipiditu na difuku dikatakata dya kitenteji dya Yehova!
8 Tala’po bukata bwa kibumbo kya njie! “Muzo mukomo, i mukande pa ntanda yami, wampikilwa kubalwa; meno ao i meno a ntambo; kadi udi ne meno a bitwilo bwa ntambo mukatakata. Wasalakanya muñanza wami ne kubābula mukuyu wami; wabābula’o to-o, ne kwela’o panshi; misambo yao i milongwe to-o. Dila kumutyima’nka bwa nkungakaji uvwele nkōlwa pa mulume wa busongwakaji bwandi.”—Yoela 1:6-8.
9 Lelo buno bupolofeto bwādi bufunkila’nka pa “muzo” wa njie, wa kibumbo kya njie kyāsadile Yuda? Mhm, padi mwanda ungi utabukile uno. Mu Yoela 1:6 ne mu Kusokwelwa 9:7, bantu ba Leza i badingakanibwe na njie. Kibumbo kya njie ya dyalelo ke bantu bakwabopo, i kyonka kibumbo kya divita kya njie mishingwe-māni ya Yehova, yakūkilwa na “mikōko mikwabo” ya Yesu kubwipi kwa 5 600 000. (Yoano 10:16) Mwene i nsangaji pa kubadilwa mu kino kibumbo kikatampe kya batōtyi ba Yehova?
10 Tutanga mu Yoela 1:9-12 byamalwa bitamba ku kinzengele kya njie. Kibumbo ne kibumbo kyenda kishiya musala mukatampe mu ntanda. Pampikwa ñano, vinyu, ne māni, babitobo bampikwa kikōkeji kebabwanyapo kwendelela na mingilo yabo. Ne nshi mine ikesha na madilo, mwanda njie i mikūkule ñano yonso, mityi ya bipa i mishale tōo, kutupu kipa nansha kimo. Miñanza yonso pa kusalwa, vinyu ibasakana, yadi ya kutomwa na bano bantondwe ba Bala, bankolwankolwa ba kumushipiditu.
‘Dilai ku Mutyima Banwe Babitobo’
11 Teja musapu wa Leza kudi bano babitobo babomboke: “Mwiningijei mitolo na makōlwa, dilai kumutyima banwe ba[bitobo]; bulukai, banwe bengidi ba madabahu.” (Yoela 1:13) Mu kufikidila kutyetye kwa bupolofeto bwa Yoela, babitobo bene Levi bobādi bengila ku madabahu. Ino bidi namani mu kuno kufikidila kwamfulo? Dyalelo, bakulumpe ba Bipwilo bya Ki-kidishitu i bepe lupusa lwa kwingila ku madabahu a Leza, betela bu bengidi bandi, ‘babitobo’ bandi. Ino i bika byotumonanga pano penda papona kilukute kya njie ya Leza ya mu ano etu mafuku?
12 ‘Babitobo’ ba Bipwilo bya Ki-kidishitu pobamonanga bantu ba Yehova bengila, ne kwivwana bidyumu byabo bitala pa butyibi bwa Leza, bajondwanga mityima bininge. Betūtulanga pa byadi byabo na kyaso ne na bulobo, pa kumona muswelo wenda usalwa ntanda na musapu wa Bulopwe. Kadi bekalanga babuluka pa kumona luombe lwabo lwibanyema. Madyo abo pa kushala’o masala, bakeshanga bufuku bonso nkelenkele panshi tō, bavwele nkōlwa, badila bupeta bwabo bwajimina. Pano basa kujimija ne mingilo yabo mine! I kyabine, Leza i mwibalombole badile bufuku bonso mwanda mfulo yabo ibafwena.
13 Mungya munenena Yoela 1:14, kikulupiji kyabo kimo kete i kwalamuka’bo pa mutyima ne ‘kwabija kudi Yehova.’ Lelo mulanga’mba bakulumpe bonso ba Bipwilo bya Ki-kidishitu bakavundamukila kudi Yehova? Kebidipo nansha kubwipi! Umo umo umbukata mwabo ukokeja kwitaba ku kidyumu kya Yehova. Inoko nzala ya kumushipiditu ya bano bendeji ba bipwilo, ne bakwabo bobongwidile nabo mu bipango byabo ikendelela. Mupolofeto Amose wānene’kyo kala, amba: “Talapo bidi, mafuku āyako’a; i Mfumwetu Leza unena; o nkatuma kipupo kya nzala muntanda, ke kipupo kya bidībwapo, mhm, nansha bu-kyumwa kya mema, ehe, ino nanshi i kya kwivwana binenwa bya Yehova.” (Amose 8:11) Ino batwe tufwijanga’ko Leza mpata pangala pa masobo a kumushipiditu aetusobelanga ku buswe bwandi kupityila kudi “umpika wabinebine ne wamanwa”!—Mateo 24:45-47, NW.
14 Kino kinzengele kya njie kyādi, kadi ne pano kikidi mujiñininya ufunkila pa kintu kampanda. Kintu’ka? Yoela witulombola’kyo senene amba: “Yo! difuku i dine’di! mwanda difuku dya Yehova didi pabwipi ponka, ino difikanga’nka bwa kyonakanya kitamba kudi Mwinebukomobonso.” (Yoela 1:15) Musala uleta kibumbo kya njie ya Leza kujokoloka ntanda yonso dyalelo ulombola patōka amba, difuku dikatakata dya kitenteji dya Yehova dibafwena. Na bubine, bonso ba mityima myoloke babilanga dino difuku dya nsambu, dikatyibilwa babi butyibi bwa Leza, ne dikatambula Yehova bushindañani bu Mulopwe Ubikele Peulu pa Bipangwa Byonso.
15 Bine, bidibwa byāpwile mu Yuda wa kala pamo’nka na mwikilombwela Yoela 1:16-20. Ne nsangaji mine yājimina jimejime. Bibīko bya bidibwa byāsadilwe, ne bitala bine byātūtwa. Pa kwikala madyo ke kutupu’o, mwanda wa njie yākombele munamuna yonso ya mu ntanda’ya, bimunanwa byādi bipepeketa’nka bwa bibela bulubi, milwi ne milwi ya mikōko yāfwa. Bine, kyādi kinzengele! Nansha byokwādi ino ngikadilo, lelo i kika kyāfikile Yoela? Aye mwine unena mu vese wa 19 amba: “A Yehova, i kudi abe ko ngela lubila.” I pamo ponka ne dyalelo, kudi bantu bavule batele mityima ku bidyumu bya Leza, babija Yehova Leza mu lwitabijo lwabo.
“Difuku dya Yehova Diyanga”
16 Teja luno lubila lutamba kudi Leza: “Ilai kimpungidi mu Ziona, ne vumijai diwi dya kidyumu mu lūlu lwami lukola; bekele mu ntanda’ya bonsololo bateteme.” (Yoela 2:1) Bateteme mwanda waka? Bupolofeto bulondolola’mba: “Mwanda difuku dya Yehova diyanga didi pabwipi’tu. Difuku dya mfindi ne kufīta, difuku dya makumbi ne fukutu byamwiko’tu, pamo’nka bwa kunkya kwa lubanga kwala pangulu.” (Yoela 2:1, 2) Kino kilombola’mba dino difuku dikatakata dya Yehova dīyanga bukidibukidi.
17 Langa’po bidi mwālongele bantu pa kufikidila kwa kino kimonwa kya mupolofeto, pa kumona njie keibwanika kushindwa yākomba budimi bwa dyangi, pamo bwa Edena, bwāshala masala onkaonka. Ivwana mwādi mwikadile kibumbo kya njie: “Kumweka kwabo kudi’nka bwa kumweka kwa tubalwe; kadi bwa bapatubalwe e mo banyemena. Pamo’nka bwa mishindo ya makalo pa nsongo ya ngulu, e mo batumbukila, pamo’nka bwa kudikita kwa lubimbi lwa mudilo uloteja bityakuku, bwa bantu bakomo balongololwa mikukumikuku ya bulwi. Pa kifuko kyabo bantu bapepwa mutyima; mapala onsololo enda atōkoloka.” (Yoela 2:4-6) Pa kinzengele kya njie kya mu mafuku a Yoela, kupepwa mityima kwa batōtyi ba Bala kwādi kwenda kuvula, ne lukani lwa kuzumbijazumbija mityima kwabo lwādi lumweka pa mapala abo.
18 Kekwādipo kintu kyākalakenye yoya njie misoñanibwe, yampikwa kukōka. Yādi yenda lubilo pamo “bwa bantu bakomo,” yenda ikanda ne pa nsakwa pene. Nansha shi imo ‘ibaponena mu mbao mutelwe miketo, mikwabo keyādipo imika lwendo lwayo.’ (Yoela 2:7, 8) Bine, buno bupolofeto bufunkila pa bukankamane budi na njie ya Leza ya kyelekejo ya mu ano etu mafuku! Dyalelo, kibumbo kya njie ya Yehova kyendanga nyeke kumeso. I kutupu “nsakwa” ya lwana yoikankalwanga kukanda. Keitunangapo bululame bwayo kudi Leza, ino itabijanga kwipaibwa, pamo na mwālongele tununu ne tununu twa Batumoni bāponene mu ‘mbao ya miketo’ pa kupela kwishingila Hitler mu bula bwa umbikalo wa Nazi mu Alemanye.
19 Njie kibumbo ya Leza ya mu ano mafuku ilombolanga bukamoni mu “kibundi” kyonso kya Bipwilo bya Ki-kidishitu. (Yoela 2:9) Isambakanya’bo pano pantanda ponsololo. Ilandala bitupu bijika byonso byoitana, itwela mu midiyo ne midiyo ya mobo, yobolola bantu mu mikenza, īsamba na bantu ku matelefone, ne kwitana nabo mu bifuko byonso mwanda wa kwibasapwila musapu wa Yehova. Kyabine, yendanga ipāna binunu ne binunu bya mabuku esambila pa Bible, kadi ikiapāna bininge’nka ne pano mu mwingilo wakubulwa nkotokelo wayo oingila—mu bifuko mungwilanga bantu ne ku njibo ne njibo.—Bilongwa 20:20, 21.
20 Yoela 2:10 ulombola’mba kibumbo kikatampe kya njie kidi pamo bwa dikumbi dikokeja kupūta dyuba, kweji, ne ñenyenye. (Enzankanya na Isaya 60:8.) Lelo tukokeja kutatana uno mwine udi kunyuma kwa kino kibumbo kya divita? Pangala pa mushindo wa bīshi, pevwanwa diwi dya bino binenwa bidi mu Yoela 2:11: “Yehova unena diwi dyandi kumeso a [kibumbo kya] divita dyandi; mwanda kitūlo kyandi i kikatampe byamwiko; ino i mukomo ulonga kinenwa kyandi; mwanda difuku dya Yehova i dikatampe kadi i dya kitenteji byamwiko’tu; ino lelo i ani ukōkeja kwidīmanina?” Eyo, pano Yehova Leza i mutume kibumbo kya njie kya divita dyandi—difuku dyandi dikatakata pokedyafikile.
‘Yehova Kejangapo’
21 Ne mutumibwa Petelo nandi i mwisambile pa difuku dikatampe dya Yehova, pamo’nka bwa Yoela. Wāsonekele’mba: “Difuku dya Yehova dikāyanga bwa ngivi; monka mo mukapityila madiulu ne mikungulo mikatampe mīne, ne byamūlu bīne bikasunguluka ku kyanga kikatampe, ne ntanda mīne ne bilongwa byayo bidi monka bikasok[o]lwanga.” (2 Petelo 3:10) “Madiulu” a imbikalo yanshikani idi munshi mwa lupusa lwa Satana Dyabola i mabikele ino “ntanda,” ko kunena’mba bantu babomboke kudi Leza. (Efisesa 6:12; 1 Yoano 5:19) Ano madiulu ne ntanda bya kyelekejo kebikapandepo pakadyendyemuka bukalabale bwa Leza mu dyodya difuku dikatakata dya Yehova. Ino pa ano madiulu ne ino ntanda pakapingakena ‘madiulu mapya ne ntanda impya mukekalanga boloke, byotutengele monka mwendele mulao wandi.’—2 Petelo 3:13.
22 Tukokeja kuvulaminwa kampeja-bukidi ka kino kyetu kitatyi, mwanda ano mafuku otudi’mo adi na bintu bivule bileta kilabi, ne bitūla lwitabijo mu matompo. Inoko, pano pendelela njie ya kyelekejo kumeso, bantu bavule betabanga ku musapu wa Bulopwe. Eyo, Leza i mushiye’ko kitatyi kilampe kya kwendelela na kusapula uno musapu, ino ketufwaninwepo kumona kitūkijetyima kyandi bu kwija. “Mfumwetu kējengapo pa mwanda-wamulao wandi, monka mufwatakenya bamobamo pa mwanda wa kwija, mhm; ino utūkijije mutyima pa bānwe, kasakilepo’mba, nansha umo ōneke, mhm, poso’mba, bonsololo bafikile pa kwalamuka pa mutyima.”—2 Petelo 3:9.
23 Pano potukitengele difuku dikatakata dya Yehova, tulamei mu mityima yetu binenwa bya Petelo bisonekelwe mu 2 Petelo 3:11, 12, NW amba: “Byobiya bino bintu byonso byobikasungululwa, banwe mufwaninwe kwikala bantu ba muswelo’ka mu bilongwa bikola bya mwiendelejo ne mu mingilo ya lulamato lwa kudi Leza, koku mukungila ne kulama ndaminine mu ñeni kwikala’po kwa difuku dya Yehova, mukasungululwa madiulu make mudilo, ne mukayeyuka mabundi makabe byamwiko.” Ino mingilo ne bino bilongwa bilomba twikale belunge na kibumbo kya njie ya Yehova na kuputumina nyeke mu busapudi bwa myanda miyampe ya Bulopwe pano kepafikile mfulo.—Mako 13:10.
24 Kibumbo kya njie ya Leza kekikalekapo uno mwingilo, kufika ne pakaposoka difuku dikatakata dya kitenteji dya Yehova. Kwikala’ko kwa kino kibumbo kya njie kikoma kwimikwa i bukamoni bukatampe bulombola’mba difuku dya Yehova dibafwena. Lelo kusepelelepo kwingila kakasa kakasa na njie ya Leza mishingwe-māni ne balunda nayo balwa dino divita dikomokomo dyamfulo pano kepafikile difuku dikatakata dya kitenteji dya Yehova?
25 Bine, difuku dya Yehova dikekala dikatakata kashāa! Yoela udi na bubinga bwa kwipangwila’mba: “Lelo i ani ukōkeja kwidīmanina?” (Yoela 2:11) Kino kipangujo ne bivule bikwabo bikabandaulwa mu bishinte bibidi bilonda’ko.
