Ekolɛ ole akɛ gbɔ ni basara Maria lɛ jeee gbɔmɔ diɛŋtsɛ. Bɔfo Gabriel ni. Beni ekɛɛ Maria akɛ eji ‘mɔ ni aduro’ lɛ lɛ, “etsui fã” yɛ ewiemɔ lɛ hewɔ, ni ejwɛŋ ŋamɔ nɛɛ he. (Luka 1: 29) Namɔ duro lɛ? Maria kpaaa gbɛ akɛ adesai kɛ woo krɛdɛɛ ko baaha lɛ. Shi no mli lɛ bɔfo lɛ miiwie Yehowa Nyɔŋmɔ duromɔ he. Ni no ji nɔ ni he hiaa Maria. Ni kɛlɛ, ekɛ henɔwomɔ susuuu akɛ Nyɔŋmɔ eduro lɛ. Kɛ́ wɔmiibɔ mɔdɛŋ ni wɔná Nyɔŋmɔ hiɛ duromɔ ni wɔkɛ henɔwomɔ susuuu akɛ wɔná momo lɛ, wɔbaayɔse anɔkwa sane ko ni he hiaa waa ni oblayoo Maria le jogbaŋŋ lɛ. Nyɔŋmɔ kuɔ henɔwolɔi anaa shi ejieɔ suɔmɔ kpo etsɔɔ humii kɛ heshibalɔi ni efiɔ amɛsɛɛ.—Yakobo 4:6.

Esa akɛ Maria aná heshibaa su ejaakɛ hegbɛ ni ŋwɛibɔfo lɛ kɛduro lɛ lɛ ji hegbɛ ni nɔ bɛ. Ekɛɛ lɛ akɛ ebaafɔ bi ko ni baatsɔ gbɔmɔ ni he hiaa fe fɛɛ. Gabriel kɛɛ akɛ: “[Yehowa] Nyɔŋmɔ aaaŋɔ etsɛ David maŋtsɛsɛi lɛ aha lɛ. Ni eeeye Yakob we lɛ nɔ maŋtsɛ kɛaatee naanɔ, ni emaŋtsɛyeli lɛ sɛɛ efoŋ.” (Luka 1:32, 33) Maria le shi ni Nyɔŋmɔ wo David nɔ ni fe afii akpe kome ni tsɔ nakai be lɛ hiɛ lɛ jogbaŋŋ—no ji akɛ David seshibii lɛ ateŋ mɔ kome baaye nɔ kɛya naanɔ.

 Kɛfata he lɛ, bɔfo lɛ kɛɛ Maria akɛ “aaatsɛ́” ebi lɛ akɛ “Ŋwɛinyo lɛ bi.” Te aaafee tɛŋŋ ni yoo ni ji adesa lɛ aaafɔ́ Nyɔŋmɔ Bi? Yɛ anɔkwale mli lɛ, te aaafee tɛŋŋ ni Maria aaafɔ́ bi nuu lɛ? No mli lɛ Yosef etsɛ ehe baa shi amɛboteko gbalashihilɛ mli. Maria ha anɔkwa sane nɛɛ fee faŋŋ kɛha bɔfo lɛ kɛtsɔ sanebimɔ nɛɛ nɔ akɛ: “Te aaafee tɛŋŋ ni enɛ aaaba mliŋ, akɛni mileee nuu nɛɛ?” (Luka 1:34) Kadimɔ akɛ efeee Maria hiɛgbele kwraa akɛ eeewie akɛ eleee nuu. Yɛ no najiaŋ lɛ ebu oblayoo fro ni eji lɛ akɛ nɔ ko ni jara wa. Ŋmɛnɛ lɛ, oblahii kɛ oblayei pii nyaa he akɛ amɛaale nuu loo yoo dani amɛbote gbalashihilɛ mli, ni amɛkɛ oyaiyeli yeɔ mɛi ni efeee nakai lɛ ahe fɛo. Je lɛ miitsake lɛɛlɛŋ. Shi kɛlɛ, Yehowa tsakeee. (Maleaki 3:6) Taakɛ eji yɛ Maria gbii lɛ amli lɛ, ŋmɛnɛ hu lɛ mɛi ni hiɔ shi yɛ Yehowa jeŋba he shishitoo mlai anaa lɛ ajara wa waa yɛ ehiɛ.—Hebribii 13:4.

Eyɛ mli akɛ Maria ji Nyɔŋmɔ tsulɔ anɔkwafo moŋ, shi adesa ni yeee emuu ji lɛ. Belɛ, te eeefee tɛŋŋ efɔ́ Nyɔŋmɔ Bi ni yeɔ emuu? Gabriel tsɔɔ mli akɛ: “Mumɔ krɔŋkrɔŋ aaaba onɔ, ni Ŋwɛinyo lɛ hewalɛ aaabaha onɔ, no hewɔ lɛ nakai bi krɔŋkrɔŋ lɛ hu ní ooofɔ́ lɛ, aaatsɛ́ lɛ Nyɔŋmɔ bi.” (Luka 1:35) Kɛ́ akɛɛ nɔ ko yɛ krɔŋkrɔŋ lɛ, no tsɔɔ akɛ “ehe tse,” “kpa ko bɛ he,” ni “akɛtsuɔ yiŋtoo krɛdɛɛ ko he nii.” Yɛ fɔmɔ su naa lɛ, adesai náa esha kɛ emuu ni amɛyeee lɛ kɛjɛɔ amɛfɔlɔi adɛŋ. Shi yɛ Maria gbɛfaŋ lɛ, Yehowa baafee naakpɛɛ nii ko ni anako enɔ dã. Ebaajie e-Bi lɛ wala kɛjɛ ŋwɛi kɛbawo Maria fɔmɔ kotoku mli, ni ekɛ enitsumɔ hewalɛ ni ji mumɔ krɔŋkrɔŋ lɛ ‘baahà’ Maria nɔ kɛbu gbekɛ lɛ he koni ekaná esha ko kwraa. Ani Maria hé shi ni ŋwɛi bɔfo lɛ wo lɛ lɛ nɔ eye? Te efee enii yɛ he eha tɛŋŋ?

Mɛi ni heee naakpɛɛ nii nɛɛ amɛyeee, ni Kristendom jamɔ he nilelɔi komɛi hu fata he lɛ nyɛɛɛ amɛhe amɛye akɛ oblayoo fro baanyɛ afɔ́. Yɛ skul nilee babaoo ni amɛná lɛ fɛɛ sɛɛ lɛ, amɛyooo anɔkwa sane ko ni shishinumɔ waaa lɛ. Gabriel wie anɔkwa sane nɛɛ he akɛ: “Nɔ ko nɔ ko bɛ ni Nyɔŋmɔ nyɛŋ afee.” (Luka 1:37) Maria hé Gabriel wiemɔi lɛ eye akɛ anɔkwale ni, ejaakɛ eji oblayoo ni yɔɔ hemɔkɛyeli ni mli wa waa. Shi kɛlɛ, ehemɔkɛyeli lɛ jeee hemɔkɛyeli ni nɔmimaa bɛ he. Taakɛ gbɔmɔ fɛɛ gbɔmɔ ni jwɛŋɔ nii ahe feɔ lɛ, ehe miihia ni Maria aná odaseyeli ko ni baaha ehe sane lɛ eye.

Kɛ́ Yosef na akɛ ená musu lɛ, ani ebaasumɔ ni ekɛ lɛ abote gbalashihilɛ mli lolo? Nɔ kroko hu ni esa akɛ esusu  he ji akɛ, etamɔ nɔ ni nitsumɔ ni akɛwo edɛŋ lɛ kɛ sɔ̃ ni tsii bafɔ̃ɔ enɔ. Ebaahiɛ Nyɔŋmɔ bɔɔ nii lɛ ateŋ mɔ ni fe fɛɛ ni ji esuɔmɔ Bi lɛ musu! Esa akɛ ekwɛ lɛ beni eji abifao ni nyɛɛɛ nɔ ko afee lɛ, ni ebu ehe yɛ jeŋ fɔŋ ni amɛyɔɔ mli lɛ mli. Hɛɛ, sɔ̃ ni tsii nɛ!

Biblia lɛ haa wɔleɔ akɛ bei komɛi lɛ hii anɔkwafoi ni yɔɔ ekãa lɛ po shashaoɔ shi akɛ amɛaakpɛlɛ nitsumɔi wuji ni Nyɔŋmɔ fãa amɛ akɛ amɛtsu lɛ anɔ. Mose kɛɛ akɛ enyɛŋ efee Nyɔŋmɔ naawielɔ ejaakɛ enaa tseee. (2 Mose 4:10) Yeremia kɛɛ akɛ ‘gbekɛ ji lɛ,’ ni tsɔɔ akɛ edako tsɔ bɔ ni ebaanyɛ etsu nitsumɔ ni Nyɔŋmɔ kɛwo edɛŋ lɛ. (Yeremia 1:6) Ni Yona hu jo foi yɛ nitsumɔ ni akɛha lɛ lɛ naa! (Yona 1:3) Ni te Maria hu fee enii tɛŋŋ?

Kɛjɛ ebeaŋ aahu kɛbashi amrɔ nɛɛ, akaiɔ ewiemɔi ni tsɔɔ akɛ eji heshibalɔ kɛ mɔ ni feɔ toiboo lɛ. Ekɛɛ Gabriel akɛ: “Naa, Nuŋtsɔ [Yehowa] weyoo ji mi; ába mli aha mi yɛ owiemɔ lɛ naa!” (Luka 1:38) Yɛ nakai beaŋ lɛ, weyoo ji tsuji ateŋ mɔ ni baa shi fe fɛɛ; ewala yɛ enuŋtsɔ lɛ dɛŋ.

Bei komɛi lɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ baabi ni wɔtsu nitsumɔ ko ni yɛ wɔhiɛ lɛ, etamɔ nɔ ni etsumɔ wa, loo wɔnyɛŋ wɔtsu po.

Wiemɔi ni Gabriel kɛ Maria wie yɛ Elisabet he lɛ kã etsui nɔ waa. Elisabet ji yoo ni baanyɛ anu shihilɛ ni Maria yɔɔ mli lɛ shishi jogbaŋŋ, aloo jeee nakai? Maria he fee oya kɛtee Yuda kpokpaa ni gɔji yɔɔ nɔ lɛ nɔ, ni ekolɛ eji gbii etɛ loo ejwɛ gbɛnyiɛmɔ. Beni eboteɔ Elisabet kɛ Zakaria ni ji osɔfo lɛ shĩa lɛ mli lɛ, Yehowa ha Maria odaseyeli ni mɔɔ shi kroko kɛwaje ehemɔkɛyeli lɛ. Beni Elisabet nu Maria ŋamɔ lɛ, abifao ni yɔɔ Elisabet musuŋ lɛ tũ kɛ miishɛɛ. Mumɔ krɔŋkrɔŋ lɛ yi Elisabet mli obɔ ni etsɛ Maria akɛ “mi-Nuŋtsɔ nyɛ.” Nyɔŋmɔ jie lɛ kpo etsɔɔ Elisabet akɛ binuu ni Maria baafɔ lɛ baatsɔ e-Nuŋtsɔ ni ji Mesia lɛ. Kɛfata he lɛ, akɛni Maria jɛ anɔkwayeli mli efee toiboo hewɔ lɛ, akɛ mumɔ krɔŋkrɔŋ lɛ tsirɛ Elisabet ni ejie eyi akɛ: “Ajɔɔ bo, bo mɔ ni ohe oye.” (Luka 1:39-45) Hɛɛ, nɔ fɛɛ nɔ ni Yehowa wo Maria shi yɛ he lɛ baaba mli!

Yɛ Elisabet wiemɔ lɛ sɛɛ lɛ, Maria hu jie enaa. Aŋma ewiemɔi lɛ pɛpɛɛpɛ yɛ Luka 1:46-55. No ji wiemɔi ni Maria wie ni aŋma yɛ Biblia lɛ mli lɛ ateŋ nɔ ni sɛɛ kɛ fe fɛɛ, ni ehaa wɔleɔ nɔ gbɔmɔ ni Maria ji. Ehaa wɔnaa akɛ Maria ji mɔ ko ni hiɛ sɔɔ nii waa, ejaakɛ ejie Yehowa yi yɛ hegbɛ ni ekɛduro lɛ akɛ etsɔ Mesia lɛ nyɛ lɛ hewɔ.

Eyɛ faŋŋ akɛ Maria yɛ bulɛ babaoo kɛha Nyɔŋmɔ Wiemɔ lɛ. Fɛɛ sɛɛ lɛ, eba ehe shi ni ekaaa eyiŋ ewieee shi moŋ ekɛ Ŋmalɛi lɛ amli wiemɔi tsu nii.

Aloo misumɔɔ ni mikɛ mi diɛŋtsɛ misusumɔi kɛ mitsɔɔmɔi atsu nii?’ Hetoi ni Maria baaha yɛ sanebimɔi nɛɛ ahe lɛ yɛ faŋŋ.

(Abɛi 13:20) Shi agbɛnɛ, eshɛ be ni Maria baaku esɛɛ kɛya shĩa. Kɛ́ Yosef ná le akɛ Maria hiɛ musu lɛ, te eeefee enii eha tɛŋŋ?

Ekolɛ esusu bɔ ni nuu ni sheɔ Nyɔŋmɔ gbeyei ni baa ejeŋ jogbaŋŋ nɛɛ baafee enii eha kɛ ekɛɛ lɛ sane lɛ. Shi kɛlɛ, etee eŋɔɔ ni eyakɛɛ lɛ sane lɛ fɛɛ. Tamɔ bɔ ni ekolɛ obaasusu lɛ, enɛ hao Yosef waa.

Shi akɛni etaooo akɛ ebɔ Maria ahora loo eha agbala etoi hewɔ lɛ, ekpɛ eyiŋ akɛ ebaaŋmɛɛ ehe yɛ teemɔŋ. (Mateo 1:18, 19) Eeenyɛ efee akɛ edɔ Maria waa akɛ eena nuu ni mli hi nɛɛ akɛ sane ni eko bako dã nɛɛ eha nuu nɛɛ ehao. Shi Maria haaa Yosef yiŋ ni etɛ̃ɛɛ lɛ yɛ sane nɛɛ he lɛ aha ebɛ Yosef ewo emli.

Yehowa haaa Yosef akɔ gbɛ ni esusuɔ akɛ no ji nɔ ni hi fe fɛɛ yɛ sane nɛɛ he lɛ. Nyɔŋmɔ bɔfo ko kɛɛ lɛ yɛ lamɔ mli akɛ, eji anɔkwale akɛ Maria hiɛ musu yɛ naakpɛɛ gbɛ nɔ. Enɛ ha etsui nyɔ emli! Agbɛnɛ Yosef fee enii taakɛ Maria fee kɛjɛ shishijee lɛ—efee enii yɛ gbɛ ni kɛ Yehowa gbɛtsɔɔmɔ kpãa gbee nɔ. Eŋɔ Maria akɛ eŋa, ni efee klalo akɛ ebaatsu sɔ̃ ni nɔ bɛ akɛ ekwɛ Yehowa Bi lɛ he nii.—Mateo 1:20-24.
