SƐNEA wubu wo bra no ho hia ankasa. Ɛbɛkyerɛ sɛ ebia wubenya daakye a anigye wom anaasɛ nea ɛyɛ awerɛhow. Awiei koraa no ɛbɛkyerɛ sɛ ebia wo ne wiase yi betwam akɔ anaasɛ wubenya nkwa wɔ n’awiei no mu akɔ Onyankopɔn trenee nhyehyɛe foforo no mu, faako a wubetumi atra ase daa.—1 Yohane 2:17; 2 Petro 3:13.
2 Nanso sɛnea wobɔ wo bra no nyɛ nea ɛka wo nkutoo. Afoforo ka ho. Nea woyɛ no ka wɔn nso. Sɛ nhwɛso no, sɛ w’awofo te ase a, nea woyɛ no betumi ahyɛ wɔn anuonyam anaasɛ ahyɛ wɔn aniwu. Bible se: “Ɔba nyansafo ma n’agya ani gye, na ɔba kwasea yɛ ne na awerɛhow.” (Mmebusɛm 10:1) Nea ɛho hia kɛse no, sɛnea wobɔ wo bra no ka Yehowa Nyankopɔn. Ebetumi ama n’ani agye anaasɛ ama ne werɛ ahow. Dɛn ntia? Esiane ɔsɛmpɔw bi a ɛho hia a wo ho wɔ mu nti.
SO NNIPA BEDI ONYANKOPƆN NOKWARE?
3. Mpoa bɛn na Satan twaa Yehowa?
3 Satan Ɔbonsam na ɔmaa ɔsɛmpɔw yi sɔree. Ɔyɛɛ saa bere a otumi nyaa Adam ne Hawa ma wobuu Onyankopɔn mmara so na wɔbɛkaa ne ho wɔ atuatew a etia Onyankopɔn mu no. (Genesis 3:1-6) Eyi maa Satan nyaa nea osusuw sɛ obetumi agyina so atwa Yehowa mpoa, sɛ: ‘Esiane nea nkurɔfo nya fi wo nkyɛn no nkutoo nti na wɔsom wo. Wo de ma me kwan na metumi ama obiara atwe ne ho afi wo ho.’ Ɛwom sɛ saa nsɛm yi mpue wɔ Bible mu ankasa de, nanso ɛda adi sɛ Satan kaa biribi a ɛte saa kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn. Eyi da adi wɔ Hiob nhoma a ɛwɔ Bible mu no mu.
4, 5. (a) Ná hena ne Hiob? (b) Dɛn na ɛkɔɔ so ɔsoro wɔ Hiob nna no mu?
4 Hiob yɛ ɔbarima a ɔtraa ase bere a atuatew no bae wɔ Eden turom hɔ no akyi mfehaha pii. Na ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn somfo a ɔteɛ na odi nokware. Nanso so na ɛfa Onyankopɔn anaa Satan ho titiriw sɛ Hiob di nokware? Bible no da no adi sɛ na ɛfa wɔn ho. Ɛka sɛnea Satan kopuee Yehowa anim wɔ ɔsoro ho asɛm. Hyɛ asɛm a wɔbɔɔ ho nkɔmmɔ no nsow:
5 “Na ɛbae da bi sɛ Onyankopɔn mma no bae begyinaa [Yehowa] anim, na Satan nso dii wɔn mu bae. Na [Yehowa] ka kyerɛɛ Satan sɛ: Ɛhe na wufi bae yi? Na Satan buaa [Yehowa] sɛ: Mifi asase so kyini ne ɛso anantenantew na mereba. Na [Yehowa] ka kyerɛɛ Satan sɛ: So woadwen m’akoa Hiob nso ho? Na obiara nni hɔ a ɔte sɛ ɔno asase no so, ɔbarima a odi mu na ɔteɛ, osuro Onyankopɔn, na oyi ne ho fi bɔne ho.”—Hiob 1:6-8.
6. Ɔsɛmpɔw bɛn na Bible kyerɛ sɛ na ɛwɔ hɔ wɔ Hiob nna no mu?
6 Dɛn nti na Yehowa ka kyerɛɛ Satan sɛ Hiob yɛ ɔbarima a ɔteɛ? Ɛda adi sɛ na ɔsɛmpɔw bi wɔ hɔ a ɛfa sɛ ebia Hiob bɛkɔ so adi Yehowa nokware anaasɛ ɔrenyɛ saa ho. Susuw Onyankopɔn asemmisa, “Ɛhe na wufi bae yi?” ne Satan mmuae, “Mifi asase so kyini ne ɛso anantenantew na mereba” no ho. Saa asemmisa yi ne Satan mmuae no daa no adi sɛ na Yehowa rema Satan kwan ma wadi mpoa a otwae sɛ obetumi adan obiara ani afi Onyankopɔn so no ho dwuma. Na, dɛn ne mmuae a Satan de mae wɔ Yehowa asemmisa a ɛfa Hiob nokwaredi ho no ho?
7, 8. (a) Satan kyerɛe sɛ na dɛn nti na Hiob som Onyankopɔn? (b) Dɛn na Yehowa yɛe na ama asɛm no atwa?
7 “Na Satan buaa [Yehowa] sɛ: So ɔkwa ara na Hiob suro Onyankopɔn no? So ɛnyɛ wo na woabɔ ɔno ne ne fi ne ade a ɔwɔ nyinaa ho ban ahyia? Ne nsa ano adwuma woahyira so, na n’afieboa ase afɛe asase no so. Na afei teɛ wo nsa ka nea ɔwɔ nyinaa hwɛ, sɛ ɔrennome [wo] anaa!”—Hiob 1:9-11.
8 Ɛdenam ne mmuae no so no, na Satan de nea enti a Hiob di Yehowa nokware no ho anoyi bi rema. Satan kae sɛ, ‘Hiob som wo esiane nneɛma a wode ma no no nti, na ɛnyɛ sɛ ɔdɔ wo.’ Satan kae nso sɛ ná Yehowa de ne tumi kɛse no redi dwuma wɔ ɔkwan a ɛnteɛ so. Ɔkae sɛ: ‘Woabɔ ne ho ban bere nyinaa.’ Enti sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ na asɛm no atwa no, Yehowa buae sɛ: “Hwɛ, nea ɔwɔ nyinaa wɔ wo nsam, na ɔno ankasa de, mfa wo nsa nka no.”—Hiob 1:12.
9. Ɔhaw bɛn na Satan de baa Hiob so, na ekowiee dɛn mu?
9 Ntɛm ara Satan fii ase sɛ ɔde ɔhaw bɛba Hiob so. Ɔma wokunkum Hiob nyɛmmoa nyinaa anaasɛ wowiae. Afei, ɔma wokunkum Hiob mma du no. Ɛkame ayɛ sɛ Hiob hweree biribiara, nanso ɔkɔɔ so dii Yehowa nokware. Wannome Onyankopɔn. (Hiob 1:2, 13-22) Nanso na ɛnyɛ asɛm no awiei nen.
10. Dɛn na ɛkyerɛ sɛ Satan annyae?
10 Satan ne abɔfo afoforo kopuee Yehowa anim bio. Yehowa bisaa Satan bio sɛ ebia wahu Hiob nokwaredi, na ɔkae sɛ: “Ɔda so kura mudi no mu ara.” Ɛnna Satan buae sɛ: “Wɔde were pere were, na nea onipa wɔ nyinaa, ɔde ma pere ne kra. Na afei teɛ wo nsa na ka ne dompe ne ne nam, sɛ ɔrennome wo anaa!”—Hiob 2:1-5.
11. (a) Ɔhaw afoforo bɛn na Satan de baa Hiob so? (b) Dɛn na efii mu bae?
11 Mmuaema mu no, Yehowa maa Satan kwan sɛ ɔnyɛ Hiob nea obetumi biara, nanso Onyankopɔn kae sɛ: ‘Nkum no.’ (Hiob 2:6) Enti Satan de ɔyare bɔne bi baa Hiob so. Amane a Hiob hui no sõ araa ma ɔbɔɔ mpae sɛ onwu. (Hiob 2:7; 14:13, 14) N’ankasa ne yere sɔre tiaa no, kae sɛ: “Dome Onyankopɔn na wu!” (Hiob 2:9) Nanso Hiob powee sɛ ɔbɛyɛ saa. Ɔkae sɛ: “Meremma wonyi me mudi mfi me ho de bɛkɔ akosi sɛ megyaa mu.” (Hiob 27:5) Hiob kɔɔ so dii Onyankopɔn nokware. Enti ɛdaa adi sɛ Satan dii mfomso wɔ ka a ɔkae sɛ na Hiob som Onyankopɔn esiane ɔhonam fam nneɛma a onya nti, na ɛnyɛ ɔdɔ mu na ofi yɛ saa no mu. Ɛdaa adi nso sɛ na Satan rentumi nnan nnipa nyinaa ani mfi Onyankopɔn som ho.
12. (a) Satan mpoatwa no ho mmuae bɛn na Hiob de maa Onyankopɔn? (b) Dɛn na Yesu nokwaredi ma Onyankopɔn no daa no adi?
12 Wugye di sɛ Hiob nokwaredi no maa Yehowa tee nka dɛn? Ɛmaa n’ani gyei yiye! Onyankopɔn Asɛm hyɛ nkuran sɛ: “Me ba, yɛ onyansafo, na ma me koma ntɔ me yam, na manya asɛm mabua nea ɔbɔ me ahohora.” (Mmebusɛm 27:11) Satan na ɔbɔ Yehowa ahohora. Na ɛdenam ne nokwaredi so no Hiob maa Onyankopɔn koma tɔɔ ne yam. Eyi maa Onyankopɔn nyaa mmuae maa ka a na Satan ka no mpoatwa kwan so sɛ adesamma rensom No wɔ sɔhwɛ mu no. Afoforo pii nso ama Onyankopɔn anya mmuae a ɛte saa. Nhwɛso a ɛsõ sen biara ne Yesu a ɔyɛ pɛ no. Sɔhwɛ ne ɔhaw ahorow a Satan de baa no so no nyinaa akyi no, okuraa ne mudi ma Onyankopɔn no mu pintinn. Eyi ma ɛdaa adi sɛ anka Adam a ɔyɛ pɛ no betumi ayɛ saa ara, sɛ na ɔpɛ a, ne sɛ na Onyankopɔn nyɛ obi a ɔnteɛ sɛ ɔhwehwɛ osetie a edi mu fi onipa nkyɛn.
ƐHE NA WUGYINA?
13. (a) Dɛn na sɛnea wobɔ wo bra no ne ɔsɛmpɔw no wɔ yɛ? (b) Ɔkwan bɛn so na yebetumi ama Onyankopɔn ani agye anaasɛ wadi yaw?
13 Na w’abrabɔ nso ɛ? Ebia worensusuw sɛ sɛnea wobɔ wo bra no ho hia titiriw biara. Nanso ɛho hia. Sɛ wunim o, wunnim o, ɛboa Onyankopɔn anaasɛ Satan wɔ asɛm no mu. Yehowa hwɛ wo so, na ɔpɛ sɛ wosom no na wotra ase daa wɔ paradise asase so. (Yohane 3:16) Bere a Israelfo tew atua tiaa Onyankopɔn no, ɛyɛɛ ne yaw anaasɛ ɛhaw no. (Dwom 78:40, 41) So w’abrabɔ yɛ nea ɛma Onyankopɔn ani gye anaasɛ ɛhaw no? Nanso sɛ wobɛma Onyankopɔn ani agye a, ɛho hia sɛ wusua ne mmara na wudi so.
14. (a) Ɛdefa ɔbarima ne ɔbea nna ho no, mmara bɛn na ɛsɛ sɛ yedi so na yɛama Onyankopɔn ani agye? (b) Dɛn nti na mmara a ɛtete sɛɛ so bu yɛ bɔne?
14 Satan botae titiriw ne sɛ ɔbɛma nkurɔfo atõ Onyankopɔn mmara a edi dwuma a wɔde awo tumi horow di, n’aware nhyehyɛe ne abusua no so no. Mmara a Onyankopɔn de ama ma abɔ yɛn anigye ho ban no se ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔn a wɔnyɛ awarefo no ne obi da ɔbarima ne ɔbea nna, na wɔn aware mu ahokafo akyi no ɛnsɛ sɛ awarefo ne obi foforo da. (1 Tesalonikafo 4:3-8; Hebrifo 13:4) Sɛ wobu Onyankopɔn mmara so a, wɔtaa wo mma a wonni awofo a wɔdɔ wɔn na wɔn ani gye wɔn ho. Ebia ɛnanom mpo bɛsɛe yafunu, akunkum mmofra no ansa na wɔawo wɔn. Bio nso, bebree a wɔbɔ aguaman no nya nyarewa ahorow a etumi sɛe mmofra a ebia wɔbɛwo wɔn. Ɛyɛ nokware a wonni, ɛyɛ bɔne a etia Onyankopɔn sɛ wo ne obi a ɔnyɛ wo kunu anaa wo yere bɛda. Hiob kae sɛ: “Sɛ wɔdaadaa me koma ɔbea bi ho, na metɛw me yɔnko pon ano a, . . . ɛno na ɛyɛ aniwusɛm, na ɛno ne asennifo anim amumɔyɛ.”—Hiob 31:1, 9, 11.
15. (a) Sɛ yɛbɔ aguaman a, hena na yɛma n’ani gye? (b) Dɛn nti na nyansa wom sɛ yedi Onyankopɔn mmara so?
15 Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛyɛ yɛn nwonwa sɛ wiase yi a Ɔbonsam di so no bɛma ayɛ sɛ nea ɛnyɛ hwee anaasɛ ɛteɛ sɛ wo ne obiara a ɔnyɛ wo kunu anaa wo yere bɛda. Nanso sɛ woyɛ saa a, hena na worema n’ani agye? Satan, ɛnyɛ Yehowa. Sɛ wobɛma Onyankopɔn ani agye a, ɛsɛ sɛ ‘wuguan aguamammɔ.’ (1 Korintofo 6:18) Ampa, ɛnyɛ mmerɛw bere nyinaa sɛ wubedi Onyankopɔn nokware. Ná ɛnyɛ mmerɛw mma Hiob nso. Nanso kae, ɛyɛ nea nyansa wom sɛ wubedi Onyankopɔn mmara so. Sɛ woyɛ saa a, w’ani begye kɛse mprempren. Na, nea ɛho hia kɛse no, ná wuregyina Onyankopɔn afã wɔ asɛm no mu na wobɛma n’ani agye. Na ɔde nkwa a enni awiei a wubenya no anigye mu wɔ asase so behyira wo.
16. (a) Ɔkwan bɛn so na wohyiraa Hiob wɔ ne nokwaredi ho? (b) Dɛn na yebetumi aka wɔ ɔhaw ahorow a Satan de ba, sɛ ebia Hiob mma 10 a okum wɔn no ho?
16 Ampa, Satan tumi maa ohia kaa Hiob na ɔmaa ne mma 10 no wuwui. Akyinnye biara nni ho sɛ na eyi yɛ adehwere kɛse ma Hiob. Nanso bere a Hiob dii nokware no, Onyankopɔn de nea na ɔwɔ ansa na ɔmaa Satan kwan ma ɔsɔɔ no hwɛe no mmɔho hyiraa no. Hiob san woo mma 10 foforo nso. (Hiob 42:10-17) Bio nso, yebetumi anya awerɛhyem sɛ wɔbɛsan de Hiob mma 10 a Satan kunkum wɔn no aba nkwa mu wɔ owusɔre no mu. Ampa, ɔhaw anaa amanehunu biara nni hɔ a wɔama kwan ma Satan de aba a Yehowa, yɛn Agya a ɔwɔ ɔdɔ no, renyɛ ho biribi wɔ n’ankasa ne bere a ɛsɛ mu.
