Kadi enka mu mafuku a Uzia, Amose wa mu Yuda, “mukumbi ne mwapudi wa bipa bya bikuyu,” wapebwa mwingilo wa bu mupolofeto. (Amose 7:14) Amose watumwe kungala kwa bulopwe bwa Isalela bwa bisaka dikumi, ino Yoela aye watumwe kunena bupolofeto monka mu Yuda. Mukanda wa Amose wāpwile kusonekwa kubwipi kwa mu mwaka wa 804 K.K.K. kupwa kwa kujoka kwa mupolofeto mu Yuda, i mulembwe mu muneneno upēla kadi usangaja.
“YO! DIFUKU I DINEDI!”—MWANDA WAKA?
Yoela wamone mu kimonwa biboto, njie, ne batēte bisala madimi. Bino bishi bileta musala bibatelwa bu “bantu bangibangi bakomo” ne bu “bantu bakomokomo.” (Yoela 1:4; 2:2-7) Yoela wayoyokota amba: “Yo! difuku i dinedi! mwanda difuku dya Yehova didi pabwipi ponka, ino difikanga’nka bwa kyonakanya kitamba kudi Mwinebukomobonso.” (Yoela 1:15) Yehova udingila bekadi ba Ziona amba: “Vundamukilai ko ndi ne mutyima wenu.” Shi bavundamukile kudi Yehova, nabya nandi usa “kufwila bantu bandi lusa” ne kwibasonsolwela kulampe “divita dya kungala”—ke bishi bileta musala kadi. Inoko, kumeso kwa kwiya kwa dino difuku dikatakata, Yehova unena’mba “nkapungulula Mushipiditu wami pa ngitu yonsololo,” kadi amba “nkalaija bingelengele mu madiulu ne panopanshi.”—Yoela 2:12, 18-20, 28-31.

Kimfwa, difuku dya uno muswelo dyāfikīle Babiloni wa kala mu 539 K.K.K. pa kukwatwa’ye na Bene Mede ne Bene Peleshia. (Isaya 13:1, 6) “Difuku dya Yehova” dikwabo didi pabwipi, kitatyi kikatyiba Leza butyibi padi “Babiloni mukatakata”—umbikalo wa ntanda yonso wa mutōtelo wa bubela.—Kusokwelwa 18:1-4, 21.

Mu mafuku a Mulopwe wa Yuda Yehoshafata, dijina dishintulula’mba “Yehova I Mutyibi,” Leza wāpandije Yuda paājokolokelwe na mizo na kuleta kavutakanya umbukata mwa bibumbo byabo bya basola. O mwanda mwine, kino kifuko kitelwanga ne bu “musanza wa Yehoshafata.” (Yoela 3:2, 12) Mu ano etu mafuku, i kyelekejo kya kifuko kikapondelwa’mo mizo pamo’nka bwa mañanza apondwa mu kyengelo.—Kusokwelwa 19:15.

“WILONGOLOLE USAMBAKANE LEZA OBE”
Amose udi na musapu utala mizo ijokolokele Isalela ne utala Yuda ne Isalela mwine kumo. Bonakani busa kufikila Shidea, Fidishitia, Tyila, Edoma, ne Moabu mwanda basusulanga bantu ba Leza bibi. Bekadi ba Yuda basa konakanibwa mwanda “bafutulwile mukanda-wabijila wa Yehova.” (Amose 2:4) Lelo bulopwe bwa Isalela bwa bisaka dikumi nabo? Mu bubi bwandi mudi kimfwa kususula balanda na manyengenyenge, busekese, ne kufutulula bapolofeto ba Leza. Yehova udyumuna kupityila kudi Amose amba: “Nkamwesha malwa madabahu a Betele,” kadi “nkakupila njibo ya bushipo pamo na njibo ya buyó.”—Amose 3:14, 15.
Bene Isalela, batōtyi ba bankishi, nansha byobapelwe kala mfuto, ino bakyendelela kūmija mutyima. Amose webalombola’mba: “Wilongolole usambakane Leza obe.” (Amose 4:12) Ku Bene Isalela, difuku dya Yehova dishintulula kuselwa “bu-misungi kokwa kungi, Damakasa kuno,” ko kunena’mba ku Ashidia. (Amose 5:27) Mupidishitu wa mu Betele walondalonda Amose, ino Amose kukwatwa moyo mpika. Yehova walombola Amose amba: “Mfulo i mifike pa bantu bami bene Isalela; nkikebapitepo monka, nansha patyetye.” (Amose 8:2) Nansha Kalunganyembo, nansha ngulu milamila kebikebafyepo ku kidye kya Leza. (Amose 9:2, 3) Inoko, kudi mulao wa kujokejibwa. Yehova unena’mba: “Nkaleta monka bu-misungi bwa bantu bami bene Isalela, kadi bakōbaka bibundi bya masala, ne kwikalamo; ino bakakuna madimi a mañanza ne kutoma vinyu yao; bakadima madimi, ne kudya bidībwa byao.”—Amose 9:14.

Yehova pa kulombola Amose “kilala kya bipa bya buyó,” wādi ulombola’mba mfulo ya Isalela idi pabwipi.
