Kimfwa, Kaini mwana umbedi wa Adama, ‘wālobele bininge’ mwanda Yehova wāpelele kitapwa kyandi, inoko wāitabija kyabuntu kyālambwile Abele. Byāfula kwepi? Kaini wāipaya mwanabo muntu moloke. (Ngo. 4:3-8; Bah. 11:4) Langulukila monka ne padi Davida, utelelwe bu muntu wa mwendele mutyima wa Yehova. (Bil. 13:22) Enka ne uno muntu wāswile kwipayañana paāivwene amba Nabalu mpeta wādi na ntanda wamutuke aye pamo ne bantu bandi. Davida ne basola bandi pa kukalabala bininge, “besomeka bipete byabo,” ke mwandapo’tu wa kukepaya’nka Nabalu kete, ino i ne bana-balume bonso ba mu njibo yandi. Na bya dyese, Abikele mukaja Nabalu, wānekenya Davida ne bantu bandi baleke kulubula kinongo.

5 Kwishila na mwikadila wa bantu bavudile kwitupa, Yehova aye katādilwangapo na bukalabale bwandi kadi ulobanga na bubinga. Nansha shi Yehova wakalabala bininge, uloñanga bintu na boloke.

Ino byakatādilwangapo nyeke na bukalabale bwandi—wāpele bantu bandi mfuto enka mu ludingo lufwaninwe, ke bipite’byopo kipimo. (Yel. 30:11) Kadi shi bukalabale bwa Yehova bubafikidija kitungo kyabo, bupwanga pampikwa kulama kīji.—Ñim. 103:9.
7, 8. Le i ñeni’ka yotuboila ku muswelo wāikele Yehova na Isalela?

(Isa. 43:10) Binenwa ne bilongwa byetu bilombolanga mwikadile Leza mwine otutelelwa’po. Ketukasakepo nansha dimo kwikala na mwikadila moneke wa kulonga bintu bibi ne kufutulwija dijina dya Yehova. Uno mwiendelejo wa buzazangi ukakolomona bulobo bwa Yehova, kadi bukidi bonka nansha mwenda mafuku, ukalonga’po kintu mwanda wa kulama ntumbo yandi.—Bah. 3:13, 15; 2 Pe. 2:1, 2.

O mwanda, tutamijanga bulēme bukatampe pādi, na kuyuka’mba bulobo bwandi bukākila boba bendelela kulonga bubi kadi kakebalekapo bashale nyeke mu bukata bwa bantu bandi. (1 Ko. 5:11-13) Yehova i mwitulombole patōkelela bintu bimulobejanga. I biyampe twepuke mwikadila ne bilongwa bimukolomona.—Yoa. 3:36; Loma 1:26-32; Yak. 4:8.
9, 10. Le Yehova uloñanga’po namani shi bandi bantu ba kikōkeji abazakajibwa? Leta bimfwa.

Kimfwa, bene Isalela pa kupwa kutamba mu Edipito, Felo ne kibumbo kyandi kya divita, bālondele bantu bādi bamweka bu kebadipo na wa kwibakwasha, bādi ku kyabu kya Dijiba Dityila. Inoko kino kibumbo kikomo kya divita pokyāpangile bene Isalela bādi bābuka mu kyalo kyūmu kya dijiba, Yehova wākonkwele matonto a makalo a divita ne kwipaya bene Edipito mu dijiba. “Kekudipo muntu nansha umo mobadi wapandile.” (Div. 14:25-28) Bulobo bwa Yehova bwaākīle bene Edipito pa mwanda wa bwandi “buswe bwa ndamatyidile” pa bantu bandi.—Tanga Divilu 15:9-13.
10 Muswelo umo onka, buswe bwa Yehova bwasenswe bantu bandi bwāmutonwene alonge’po kintu mu mafuku a Mulopwe Hezekia. Bene Ashidia, kibumbo kikomo bininge kya divita kadi kya kasusu mu mene mafuku’a, kyākatambile kibundi kya Yelusalema bulwi. Bengidi ba Yehova ba lulamato bāzakajibwe na kutēkelwa kasāla kādi ka kwibafikija bityebitye ku lufu lwa munyanji. (2 Ba. 18:27) Yehova wālonga’po kintu na kutuma mwikeulu’tu umo; wāipaya basola balwana 185 000 mu bufuku’tu bumo! (2 Ba. 19:34, 35) Fwatakanya’po mobyāikadile mu nkambi ya bene Ashidia pobwākile lubanga. Mikobe, mangabo, ne bipete bilēle kashā byadi. Kutupu bimpungidi bivuma bya kulangula bana-balume. Kutupu ba kwendeja bibumbo bya basola. Mu mapema monso mudi’tu nyā, mu nkambi mulēle’nka imbidi mifwe.
11. Le i busengi’ka ne bukankamane botumwena mu bimfwa bya mu Bisonekwa bya muswelo uloñanga Yehova bintu shi bantu bandi abazakajibwa?

(Bah. 10:31) Kotudi batwe, bino bimfwa bituletelanga busengi ne bukankamane. Tusengibwanga pa kuyuka’mba Satana, walwana netu mukatampe, kakalongapo kintu. Panopano ponka kandi “kakitatyi katyetye” ka kuludika kasa kufula! (Kus. 12:12) Penepa, tukengidila Yehova na bukankamane, koku tukulupile amba i kutupu muntu, bulongolodi, nansha buludiki bubwanya kwitukankaja kulonga kiswa-mutyima kya Leza. (Tanga Ñimbo ya Mitōto 118:6-9.) Mutumibwa Polo wālombwele kikulupiji kyetu mu bino binenwa bya ku bukomo bwa mushipiditu amba: “Shi Leza udi netu, le ukalwa netu i ani?”—Loma 8:31.

12 Pa kyamalwa kikatampe kīya’ki, Yehova ukalonga’po kintu mwanda wa kwitukinga, monka mwaālongele na bene Isalela bādi mu dikinga dya bene Edipito ne na Bayuda ba mu Yelusalema bātēkelwe kasāla na bene Ashidia. Shi balwana netu kebakimbe kwitonakanya, buswe bukatampe bwitusenswe Yehova bukalengeja bukalabale bwandi bwake. Na bubine boba bakeongola kwitutamba bulwi, bakatenga nkishi wa mu diso dya Yehova. Ukalonga’po kintu bukidibukidi kadi na kusumininwa. (Zek. 2:8, 9) Buno bukekala bonakani kebwamwekele kashā. Inoko balwana na Leza kebakekalapo na bubinga bwendele’mo bwa kutulumukila pakapungulwila Yehova bukalabale bwandi pobadi. Mwanda waka?

13 Yehova ‘wijanga pa kukwatwa bulobo’ kadi i mulete bidyumu bikatampe amba ukonakanya boba balwa nandi ne bazakaja bantu bandi. (Div. 34:6, 7) Yehova wāingidije bapolofeto pamo bwa Yelemia, Ezekyele, Danyele, Kidishitu Yesu, ne mutumibwa Petelo, Polo, ne Yoano badyumune bantu ku bulwi bukatakata.—Tala kapango “Bidyumu bya Yehova Bitala pa Divita Dikatampe.”

Kujokoloka ntanda yonso, i mutūle’ko kibumbo kya bantu ba kwilanga bakwasha bakwabo befunde mwa kwikadila mu ndoe na Leza ne kudyumuna bantu ku “difuku dikatampe dya Yehova.” (Zef. 1:14; Ñim. 2:10-12; 110:3) I mulengeje bantu bandi balamune mabuku a kwifunda nao Bible mu ndimi tutwa na tutwa ne kupityija mansá midiyo tutwa na tutwa mwaka ne mwaka mu kusapwila bantu milao ne bidyumu bitanwa mu Kinenwa kyandi.

Inoko panopano ponka, boba bapela bino bidyumu kebasapo kwikala na mukenga wa kushinta.

Inoko, kilombola’mba Yehova ubwanya kuyuka byobya bidi mu mityima ne muswelo ukalonga balwana nandi bintu mu kitatyi kitungwe.—Ñim. 94:11; Isa. 46:9, 10; Yel. 17:10.

Pa kino, babwanya kukalanga’mba shi Leza wadi’ko, wadi wa kulwila ano malongolodi etela bu engilanga mu dijina dyandi. Kebakajingululapo amba i Leza watūdile’kyo mu mityima yabo mwanda wa bonakanye bipwilo bītelela bya bubela pādi.—Kus. 17:16, 17.

Mobimwekela uno musapu o ukakolomona mizo itambe bantu ba Leza bulwi bukatampe, na kukimba kwitūbija lonso talala. Mizo ikalanga’mba ketudipo na wa kwitulwila, tupēla’tu konakanibwa. Kuno shako ko kwiongola!

Bakayuka ku bukomo Umpangi mu mwingilo wandi wa bu mukulu wa basola, Yehova wa bibumbo.
