Beni etsuɔ ekaselɔi lɛ ni amɛyashiɛ lɛ, ekɛɛ amɛ akɛ ‘amɛkaŋa mɔ ko yɛ gbɛ lɛ nɔ.’ (Luka 10:2-4) Mɛni hewɔ Yesu kɛ gbɛtsɔɔmɔ ni tamɔ nɛkɛ ha amɛ lɛ? Biblia he nilelɔ ko kɛɛ akɛ: “Nɔ ni fataaa ŋamɔi ni yɔɔ Bokagbɛbii lɛ ateŋ taakɛ eji yɛ wɔ nɔ lɛ he lɛ ji hiɛshimaa fioo ko, aloo nine mli kpamɔ, shi nɔ ni afeɔ ji fuamɔi babaoo, kɛ yitso hosomɔ, kɛ gbɔmɔtso kɛ shifɔɔ shwɛtɛɛ yɛ shikpɔŋ po.

Kaimɔ akɛ, Yehowa baanyɛ aye abua mɔ fɛɛ mɔ koni hesai ni eyɔɔ lɛ aya hiɛ taakɛ efee eha Bezaleel kɛ Oholiab lɛ.—2 Mose 31:1-6; kwɛmɔ mfoniri ni yɔɔ nikasemɔ lɛ shishijee lɛ.
