⁵ Zakaria gba bɔ ni jeŋmajiaŋbii lɛ baafee amɛnii amɛha, ni ekɛɛ akɛ: “Aaaŋɔ [Yerusalem] maŋ lɛ.” “Maŋ lɛ” damɔ shi kɛha Nyɔŋmɔ Mesia Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ. Kristofoi ni afɔ amɛ mu ni yɔɔ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ lɛ fata emli bii lɛ ahe. (Fil. 3:20) Beni awuɔ Jeŋ Ta I lɛ, amɔmɔ nyɛmimɛi ni nyiɛɔ Yehowa gbɛjianɔtoo lɛ fã ni yɔɔ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ lɛ hiɛ lɛ ni ayawo amɛ tsuŋ yɛ Atlanta yɛ Georgia yɛ U.S.A., ni no tsɔɔ akɛ ‘aŋɔ’ maŋ lɛ.

Anɔkwa ni Kristofoi ni afɔ amɛ mu lɛ ye lɛ woɔ Nyɔŋmɔ tsuji ni yɔɔ ŋmɛnɛ lɛ hewalɛ koni amɛkpee jaramɔ shihilɛi fɛɛ naa, ni ekomɛi ji wekumɛi kɛ nanemɛi nitsulɔi ni heee yeee ni teɔ shi woɔ amɛ, kɛ nanemɛi skulbii ni yeɔ amɛhe fɛo  yɛ amɛhemɔkɛyeli lɛ hewɔ lɛ.

⁸ Akɛni Yerusalem, ni ji “maŋ lɛ,” damɔ shi kɛha ŋwɛi Yerusalem hewɔ lɛ, “Mu Gɔŋ lɛ ní ma Yerusalem hiɛ” lɛ hu damɔ shi kɛha nɔ ko. Mɛni gɔŋ lɛ damɔ shi kɛha?

(Lala 72:3; Yes. 25:6, 7) No hewɔ lɛ, Mu gɔŋ lɛ ni Nyɔŋmɔ damɔ nɔ, ni ma shikpɔŋ nɔ Yerusalem lɛ bokagbɛ lɛ damɔ shi kɛha Yehowa jeŋ muu fɛɛ nɔyeli lɛ.

9. Mɛni “Mu Gɔŋ lɛ” ni mli gbá enyɔ lɛ tsɔɔ?

Jɔɔ nɛɛ damɔ shi kɛha hebuu ni Nyɔŋmɔ kɛhaa etsuji yɛ ejeŋ muu fɛɛ nɔyeli lɛ kɛ e-Bi lɛ Mesia Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ shishi lɛ. Yehowa eŋmɛŋ gbɛ ni abule anɔkwa jamɔ shishi kɔkɔɔkɔ. Mɛɛ be mu gɔŋ nɛɛ mli gbá enyɔ? Enɛ ba mli beni Jeŋmaji Abe lɛ ba naagbee yɛ afi 1914, be ni ato Mesia Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ shishi lɛ. Mɛɛ be anɔkwa jálɔi bɔi foijee kɛ mfonirifeemɔŋ jɔɔ lɛ mli yaa?

¹¹ Yesu bɔ esɛɛnyiɛlɔi lɛ kɔkɔ akɛ: “Migbɛ́i lɛ hewɔ lɛ jeŋmaji fɛɛ aaanyɛ nyɛ.” (Mat. 24:9) Nyɛɛ nɛɛ mli ewa waa kɛjɛ afi 1914, beni nibii agbɛjianɔtoo nɛɛ naagbee be lɛ je shishi lɛ. Yɛ yiwaa ni mɛi ni afɔ amɛ mu lɛ ateŋ shwɛɛnii lɛ ahenyɛlɔi lɛ kɛba amɛnɔ yɛ Jeŋ Ta I lɛ mli lɛ fɛɛ sɛɛ lɛ, anyɛɛɛ akpata nakai kuu lɛ hiɛ.

¹⁴ Beni nibii agbɛjianɔtoo nɛɛ naagbee lɛ bɛŋkɛɔ lɛ, Satan baamia tutuamɔ ni ekɛbaa Yehowa tsuji anɔ lɛ mli. Kɛkɛ lɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ kɛ ehenyɛlɔi lɛ baawu yɛ “[Nyɔŋmɔ] ta gbi lɛ” nɔ.
