‘HAZVIITWI NESIMBA, ASI NOMUDZIMU WANGU’
Zekariya anotanga basa rake rokuprofita nokuudza vaJudha kuti ‘vadzoke kuna Jehovha.’ (Zekariya 1:3) Zvinhu zvisere zvaanozoratidzwa zvinovimbisa kuti Mwari anotsigira basa rokuvakazve temberi. (Ona bhokisi rakanzi “Zvinhu Zvisere Zvakaratidzwa Zekariya.”) Basa rokuvaka richapera, kwete “nehondo, kana nesimba, asi nomudzimu,” waJehovha.

(Zefaniya 3:1; Jeremiya 6:13; 7:29-34) Zvisinei, temberi yavakwazve uye vanhu vazvipira kunamata Jehovha, imomo maizotaurwa chokwadi chokunamata kwakachena, uye Jerusarema raizonzi “guta rechokwadi.”

Ivo nevamwe vavo vavanonamata navo vanoratidza kuti havasi Zvapupu zvaJehovha zvezita chete.

(Mateu 21:1-9; 26:31, 56; 27:3-10) Chivimbo chedu muShoko raJehovha nezvose zvaanotiitira kuti tipone chinosimbiswa.—VaHebheru 4:12.
