1. Ni enki eki tushemerire kumanya, kandi shi ni enki eki tushemerire kwesiga?

 NITUMANYA ku turije kuhiganisibwa omu murimo g’okuburira. Oko kuhiganisibwa nikubasa kwija kweyongera omu biro by’omu misho. (Dan 11:44; 2Tim 3:12; Kush 16:21) Konka nabwe, nitwesiga ku Yehova arije kutuha ebi turi kwetenga. Ahabw’enki? Burijo Yehova nakwasa abahereza beye kuhikiriza omurimo gweye n’obu gwakuba guri kurebeka nk’ogugumire. Reka tushwijume bimwe omu bintu ebyahikire aha muhanuzi Ezekiyeli, owaburire Abayudaya ababire bari enkwatwa omuri Babuloni.

2. Ni enki eki Yehova yagambire aha bantu abu Ezekiyeli yabire naburira, kandi shi ni enki eki twaza kushwijuma omuri eki kicweka? (Ezekiyeli 2:3-6)

² Abantu abu Ezekiyeli yabire naburira bakaba bari bata? Yehova akagamba ku babire bari abantu “b’abagomi,” “abanyarubwa,” kandi “ab’emitima egangire.” Bakaba bari babi munonga nk’amahwa kandi bari ab’akabi nka za sikoropiyo. Tikiri kututangaza kuba Yehova yagambire Ezekiyeli emirundi myingi ati: “Otabatina”! (Shoma omuri Ezekiyeli 2:3-6.) Ezekiyeli akabasa kukora omurimo gweye g’okuburira ahakuba (1) Yehova ni we owabire amutumire, (2) akahebwa amani g’omwika gwa Ruhanga, kandi (3) akabisibwaho Ekigambo ca Ruhanga. Ni bata oku ebyo bintu bishatu byakwasize Ezekiyeli? Kandi shi ni bata oku biri kutukwasa omuri obu bwire?

3. Ni biha bigambo ebiri kubasa kuba byagarwiremu amani Ezekiyeli, Kandi shi ni bata oku Yehova yamuhamize ku yabire arije kumuyamba?

³ Yehova akagambira Ezekiyeli ati: “Ninkutuma.” (Ezek 2:3,4) Ebyo bigambo bishemerire kuba byagarwiremu Ezekiyeli amani. Ahabw’enki? Ashemerire kuba yayijukire ku Yehova  yakoresize ebigambo nk’ebyo obu yatumire Musa na Isaya ngu babe abahanuzi beye. (Kur 3:10; Isa 6:8) Nambwenu Ezekiyel akaba namanya oku yakwasize abo bahanuzi beye kusingura ebigezo. Obwe rero Yehova ku yagambire Ezekiyeli emirundi ibiri ku ari we ‘owamutuma,’ ogo muhanuzi akaba ayine enshonga ndungi y’okwesiga ku Yehova yabire arije kumukwasa. Nambwenu, nitushoma omu kitabo ca Ezekiyeli emirundi myingi ebigambo ebiri kugira ngu: “Ekigambo ca Yehova canyijaho.” (Ezek 3:16) Kandi ebigambo ebiri kugira ngu “bwanyima ekigambo ca Yehova canyijaho” nikigambwa emirundi myingi omu kitabo ca Ezekiyeli. (Ezek 6:1) Mazima, Ezekiyeli akaba nayesiga atari kubanganisa ku Yehova ari we owamutumire. Nambwenu, ahakuba yabire ari omwana w’omutambi, ishe nabasa kuba yabire yamwegesize oku Yehova yagenzire ari kuyamba abahanuzi beye. Yehova akagambira Isaka, Yakobo na Yeremiya ati: “Ndi hamwe n’iwe.”—Kut 26:24; 28:15; Yer 1:8.

4. Ni biha bigambo ebyahire Ezekiyeli amani?

⁴ Ni bata oku Abisirayeli babire barije kwakira obutumwa bwa Ezekiyeli? Yehova akagamba ati: “Ab’enju ya Isirayeli tibari kwija kukuhurira, ahabw’okuba nanye tibari kwenda kumpurira.” (Ezek 3:7) Abisirayeli bakaba bari nk’abari  kwanga kuhurira Yehova. Ebyo bigambo bikahamiza Ezekiyeli ku n’obu abantu babire barayange kumuhurira cabire kitari kumanyisa ku yaremwa omurimo gweye g’obuhanuzi. Nambwenu Yehova akahamiza Ezekiyeli ku aha bwire bw’okucwa orubanja, abantu babire barije “kumanya ku omuhanuzi yabire abarimu.” (Ezek 2:5; 33:33) Hatariho okubanganisa, ebyo bigambo bikaha Ezekiyeli amani g’okuhikiriza omurimo gweye g’okuburira.

5. Tukuratize ebiri omuri Isaya 44:8, ni enki ekiri kutugaruramu amani?

⁵ N’itwe twamanya ku Yehova ari we ori kututuma nikitugaruramu amani. Natuha ekitinisa ari kutweta “abahamya” beye. (Isa 43:10) Ogo ku ni omugisha gw’amani! Nk’oku Yehova yagambire Ezekiyeli ngu “atatina,” n’itwe ni ko ari kutugambira ati: “Mutatina.” Ahabw’enki tutashemerire kutina abari kutuhakanisa? Nka Ezekiyeli, Yehova ni we ori kututuma kandi natuyamba.—Shoma omuri Isaya 44:8.

6. (a) Ni bata oku Yehova ari kuturaganisa ku arije kutuyamba? (b)Ni enki ekiri kutugumya kandi kikatugaruramu amani?

⁶ Yehova naturaganisa ku arije kutuyamba. Ecokureberaho: Yehova atakagambire ngu “muri abahamya bange,” akagira ati: “Ku oriraba omu mizi ndyaba nkwine, ku oriraba omu migera, terikutwara. Ku origendera omu muriro torisya, n’ebirimi byago tibiri kubabura.” (Isa 43:2) Twaba turi kukora omurimo g’okuburira, hine obu turi kubugana ebizibu ebiri nk’emigera n’ebigezo ebiri nk’omuriro. Konka Yehova natukwasa tugumizamu kuburira. (Isa 41:13) Nk’oku byabire biri omu bwire bwa Ezekiyeli, abantu bingi nibanga obutumwa obu turi kubagambira. Twijuke ku eco kitari kumanyisa ku turemirwe kuhikiriza omurimo gwitu. Nikitugumya kandi kitugaruramu amani twamanya ku Yehova ari kushemererwa twagumizamu kutangaza obutuma bweye omu bwesigwa. Entumwa Pawulo akagamba ati: “Buri omwe aryahebwa ebihembo nk’omurimo gweye oku guriba guri.” (1Kor 3:8; 4:1,2) Omunyanyazi omwe omazire emyaka myingi ari omupayoniya akagamba ati: “Ku ndi kumanya ku Yehova ari kutuha emigisha ahabw’amani agu turi kutaho, ninshemererwa.”

7. Ezekiyeli ku yabire natecereza aha korekwa oku yabwine, bikaba nibimukwasa bita? (Reba ekishushani c’aha kishembeso.)

⁷ Ezekiyeli akerebera oku omwika gwa Ruhanga gwine amani. Omu korekwa, akareba omwika oguri kwera guri kukoresa ebihangirwe by’omwika ebyine amani kandi guri kukoresa enziga z’ekigari kihango. (Ezek 1:20, 21) Ezekiyeli akatwaza ata? Akahandika ebyabireho ati: “Ku nakirebire nagwa ahaasi njumire.” Ezekiyeli akatina munonga, yagwa ahaasi. (Ezek 1:28) Bwanyima, Ezekiyeli ku yabire natecereza ahari oko korekwa okuri kutangaza, akaba nayesiga ku omwika gwa Ruhanga gwabire gurije kumukwasa kuhikiriza omurimo gweye g’okubirira.

8-9. (a) Ni enki eki Yehova yaragire Ezekiyeli kukora? (b)Ni bata oku Yehova yayongire kugumya Ezekiyeli kugira ngu ahikirize omurimo gweye ogwabire gugumire?

⁸ Yehova akaragira Ezekiyeli ati: “Mwana w’omuntu, yimuka oyemerere, ngambe n’iwe.” Eco kiragiro hamwe nʼomwika gwa Ruhanga bikaha Ezekiyeli amani agu yabire ari kwetenga kugira ngu aruge ahaasi. Ezekiyeli akahandika ati: “Omwika gwantahamu, gwanyemereza.” (Ezek 2:1,2) Bwanyima, Ezekiyeli akakora omurimo g’okubirira ayebembirwe n’“omukono” gwa Ruhanga, ni okugamba omwika gwa Ruhanga oguri kwera. (Ezek 3:22; 8:1; 33:22; 37:1; 40:1) Omwika gwa Ruhanga gukaha Ezekiyeli amani g’okukora omurimo ogwabire gugumire g’okuburira abantu “b’emitima egangire.” (Ezek 3:7) Yehova akagambira Ezekiyeli ati: “Ngangize aha misho gawe, ngu obone kugangarira ahaabo, n’obusyo bwawe kugangarira obwabo. Nahindura obusyo bwawe nka dayamondi, bugume okukira ibare ry’enkangabuye. Otatina kandi otahaharira emirebecere yabo.” (Ezek 3:8,9) Yehova akaba ari  nk’ori kugambira Ezekiyeli ngu: ‘Otayikiriza ngu obugomi bw’abantu bukucwe entege. Ninyija kukugumya.’

⁹ Bwanyima, omwika gwa Ruhanga gukagenda na Ezekiyeli omuri teritori yeye y’okuburira. Akahandika ati: “Omukono gwa Yehova gukaba gungumize.” Hakahwa esande yona kugira ngu ogo muhanuzi ashoborocerwe obutumwa obu yabire ari kwenda kutwarira abantu. (Ezek 3:14, 15) Obwe rero Yehova akamuragira kuza omu ruhanga ahu “omwika [gwamutahiremu].” (Ezek 3:23, 24) Ezekiyeli akaba ayetegwire kutandika omuriko gweye g’okuburira.

10. Ni buha buyambi obu turi kwetenga kugira ngu tuhikirize omurimo gwitu g’okuburira?

¹⁰ Ni buha buyambi obu turi kwetenga kugira ngu tuhikirize omurimo gwitu g’okuburira? Kugira ngu otunge ecokureberaho, tecereza aha byahikire ahari Ezekiyeli. Obu yabire atakatandikire omurimo g’okuburira, omwika gwa Ruhanga gukamuha amani. Nka Ezekiyeli, erizoba nitubasa kuhikiririza omurimo gwitu g’okuburira omwika gwa Ruhanga gwatukwasa. Ahabw’enki? Ahabw’okuba Sitane naturwanisa kugira ngu twemereze omurimo gwitu g’okuburira. (Kush 12:17) Tukuratize emitecerereze y’abantu, niturebeka nk’abasingwirwe Sitane. Konka ku turi kugumizamu kuburira, nituba turi kumusingura! (Kush 12:9-11) Bata shi? Twayekwatanisa omu murimo g’okuburira, nituba turi kwereka ku tutari kutina ebikango bya Sitane. Twaza kuburira, nitusingura Sitane. Mbwenu shi ni enki ekiri kutukwasa kugumizamu turi kukora omurimo g’okuburira n’obu twakuba turi kuhakanisibwa? Ni ahabw’amani g’omwika oguri kwera, hamwe n’okuba Yehova ari kutwemera.—Mat 5:10-12; 1Pet 4:14.

11. Ni enki eki omwika gwa Ruhanga gurije kutukorera, kandi shi ni enki eki turi kubasa kukora kugira ngu tugutunge?

¹¹ Ni enki ekindi eki turi kwegera aha ku Yehova yagumize aha misho n’aha busyo bya Ezekiyeli? Omwika gwa Ruhanga nigubasa  kutukwasa kusingura ebigezo byona ebi turi kubugana omu murimo g’okuburira. (2Kor 4:7-9) Mbwenu shi ni enki eki turi kubasa kukora kugira ngu tugume kutunga omwika gwa Ruhanga? Tushemerire kushaba turi kweshengereza kandi turi kwesiga ku Yehova arije kuhurikiza eshara zitu. Yesu akegesa abegi beye ati: ‘Mugumizemu kushaba, mugumizemu kuronda, mugumizemu kwiguza.’ Kandi Yehova nagarukamu eshara ari kuha “omwika oguri kwera abari kugumushaba.”—Luk 11:9, 13; Byak 1:14; 2:4.

12. Tukuratize ebiri omuri Ezekiyeli 2:9–3:3, omuzingo gukaba guri kuruga ahari oha, kandi shi ni enki ecabire kirimu?

¹² Ezekiyeli tarahibwe amani g’omwika gwa Ruhanga kusha ahobwe akabisibwaho n’Ekigambo ca Ruhanga. Ezekiyeli akabona omu korekwa engaro zine omuzingo. (Shoma omuri Ezekiyeli 2:9–3:3.) Ogo muzingo gukaba niguruga ahari oha? Ni enki ecabire kirimu? Ni bata oku gwabisizeho Ezekiyeli? Reka tubirebe. Ogo muzingo gukaba niguruga aha kitebe ca Ruhanga. Yehova nabasa kuba yatumire ahari omwe omuri ba marayika abu Ezekiyeli yabire yarebire kugira ngu amuhe ogo muzingo. (Ezek 1:8; 10:7, 20) Ogo muzingo gukaba gurimu Ekigambo ca Ruhanga, ni okugamba obutumwa bw’orubanja obu Ezekiyeli yabire ashemerire kugambira Abayudaya ababire bari enkwatwa. (Ezek 2:7) Obwo butumwa bukaba buhandikire aha muzingo omu nda n’enyima hombi.

13. Ni enki eki Yehova yagambire Ezekiyeli kukora, kandi shi ahabw’eki omuzingo gwabire gunuzire?

¹³ Yehova akagambira omuhanuzi weye kurya ogo muzingo n’‘okugwijuza omu nda [yeye].’ Ezekiyeli akoroba, yarya ogo muzingo gona. Eco kikaba nikimanyisa ki? Ezekiyeli akaba ashemerire kushoborocerwa ge obutumwa obu yabire yaza kutangaza. Bukaba bushemerire kukwata aha nyehurira zeye. Bwanyima hakabaho ekintu ekiri kutangaza. Ezekiyeli ku yarire omuzingo akashanga “gunuzire nk’obwoki.” (Ezek 3:3) Ahabw’enki? Ezekiyeli akareba omurimo g’okwemererera Yehova guri kushemeza munonga. (Zab 19:8-11) Akereka ku nasima Yehova ahabw’okumwikiriza kumukorera ari omuhanuzi weye.

14. Ni enki ecakwasize Ezekiyeli kwetegura kuhikiriza omurimo gweye?

¹⁴ Bwanyima, Yehova akagambira Ezekiyeli ati: “Ebigambo byange byona, ebi naza kukugambira, obitasye omu mutima gwawe.” (Ezek 3:10) Yehova akagambira Ezekiyeli kuta omu bitekateko ebigambo byona ebihandikire omu muzingo kandi akabitecerezaho. Eco kikaba kirije kubisaho Ezekiyeli. Nambwenu, kikatuma obutumwa obu yabire yaza kutangariza abantu bwagira amani. (Ezek 3:11) Ahakuba obutumwa bwa Ruhanga bwabire buri aha mutima n’aha munwa gwa Ezekiyeli, akaba ayetegwire kuhikiriza omurimo gweye.—Geranisa n’ebiri omuri Zaburi ya 19:14.

15. Ni enki eki tushemerire “kuta omu mutima” kugira ngu twehangane?

¹⁵ Kugira ngu twehangane omu murimo g’okuburira, tushemerire kugumizamu turi kubisibwaho n’Ekigambo ca Ruhanga. Tushemerire “kuta omu mutima” ebintu byona ebi Yehova ari kutugambira. Erizoba Yehova nagamba n’itwe birabire aha Kigambo ceye, ari co Bibuli. Ni enki eki turi kubasa kukora kugira ngu Ekigambo ca Ruhanga kigumizemu kuboneza emitecerereze, enyehurira n’entego zitu?

16. Ni enki eki turi kubasa kukora kugira ngu tushoborocerwe ge ebiri omu Kigambo ca Ruhanga?

 ¹⁶ Nk’oku turi kubisibwaho n’ebyokurya ebishangirwe twabirya kandi tukabifutana, ni ko turi kubisibwaho omu by’omwika twayeyegesa Ekigambo ca Ruhanga kandi tukakitecerezaho. Ni ryo ishomo eri turi kwegera aha muzingo. Yehova nayenda ngu ‘twijuze omu nda [yitu]’ Ekigambo ceye, ni okugamba okukishoborocerwa ge. Eco nitubasa kukikora turi kushaba, turi kukishoma kandi turi kukitecerezaho. Eshara netukwasa kutegura omutima gwitu kugira ngu gwakire ebitecerezo bya Ruhanga. Tukurasaho kushoma obutumwa oburi omuri Bibuli. Bwanyima, nitwemereramu, tutecereza munonga aha bi twashoma. Ni enki ekirije kurugamu? Oku turakizeho kutecereza, ni ko omutima gwitu gw’amanyiso gurije kushoborocerwa ebiri omu Kigambo ca Ruhanga.

17. Ahabw’enki kiri ec’omugasho okutecereza aha bi twashoma omuri Bibuli?

¹⁷ Ahabw’enki kiri ec’omugasho okushoma Bibuli kandi tukatecereza aha bi twashoma? Twakikora nikija kutuma twagira amani g’omu nda g’okutukwasa omu kuburira obutumwa bw’Obukama hati n’okwija kuburira obutumwa bw’amani bw’orubanja obu turije kuburira omu biro bya juba. Nambwenu, twatecereza aha mitwarize mirungi ya Yehova, obunywani bwitu na we nibukizaho kuhama. Kandi eco nikija kutuma twashemerererwa ekintu ekinuzire kandi ekiri kushemeza, ni okugamba obusinge bw’omu mutima n’okumarwa.—Zab 119:103.

18. Ni enki eki abantu b’omuri teritori zitu barijekumanya, kandi ahabw’enki?

¹⁸ Itwe tituri nka Ezekiyeli ahakuba tituri kuhanurira abantu. Konka tumaririre kutangaza obutumwa obu Yehova yarinzire omu Kigambo ceye okuhisya obu arigamba ku gwahendera. Obwire bw’orubanja ku burihika, abantu b’omuri teritori zitu tibarije kwekwasa ngu tibarahurire okurabura kwa Ruhanga ninga shi ngu akabehuzya. (Ezek 3:19; 18:23) Omu mwanya gw’eco, nibija kumanya ku obutumwa obu twabire turi kuburira bwabire buri kuruga aha Ruhanga.

19. Ni enki ekirije kutuha amani g’okuhikiriza omurimo gwitu?

¹⁹ Ni enki ekirije kutuha amani g’okuhikiriza omurimo gwitu? Ni ebintu ebyakwasize Ezekiyeli. Nitugumizamu kuburira ahakuba nitumanya ku Yehova ari we owatutumire, nitutunga amani g’omwika oguri kwera kandi nitubisibwaho n’Ekigambo ca Ruhanga. Yehova natukwasa kukora omurimo g’okuburira n’okwehangana okuhisya aha “muheru.”—Mat 24:13.
