Aaafee afii akpei ejwɛ ni eho nɛ lɛ, Abraham ŋa Sara shã “aboloo” klakla ko ehã gbɔi etɛ ni basara amɛ trukaa lɛ, no mli lɛ amɛyɛ he ko ni bɛŋkɛ Betlehem wuoyigbɛ. (1 Mose 18:6, Ga Biblia hee) Eeenyɛ efee akɛ emmer wheat loo ŋmaa ji nɔ ni akɛfee “ma [loo ashikishaŋ]” ni Sara kɛshã aboloo lɛ. Esa akɛ Sara ashã aboloo nɛɛ oya, ni ekolɛ, efee nakai yɛ tɛi ni edɔ nɔ.—1 Maŋtsɛmɛi 19:6, Ga Biblia hee.

Amaniɛbɔɔ nɛɛ hãa wɔnaa akɛ Abraham weku lɛ shãa amɛ diɛŋtsɛ amɛboloo. Akɛni Abraham weku lɛ ehiii maŋ kome nɔ hewɔ lɛ, ekã shi faŋŋ akɛ flɔnɔɔ ni Sara kɛ etsuji lɛ kɛshã aboloo lɛ yɛ srɔto yɛ nɔ ni akɛshãa aboloo yɛ Ur ni ji maŋ nɔ ni Sara jɛ lɛ he.

Afii ohai ejwɛ sɛɛ lɛ, Mose Mla lɛ tsɔɔ akɛ, esaaa akɛ aheɔ wiɛ awaba ejaakɛ kɛ́ afee nakai lɛ, akɔ mɔ lɛ daaŋ ŋmaa. (5 Mose 24:6) Nyɔŋmɔ bu wiɛ akɛ nɔ ko ni he hiaa waa, ejaakɛ kɛ́ weku ko bɛ eko lɛ amɛnaŋ amɛdaaŋ ŋmaa.—Kwɛmɔ akrabatsa ni ji “ Blemabii lɛ Wiɛ Nii ni Amɛshã Aboloo yɛ Amɛdaa Gbi Shihilɛ Mli.”

Ŋmalɛi lɛ tsĩɔ aboloo tã aaashɛ shii 350, ni kɛ́ mɛi ni ŋma Biblia lɛ miiwie niyenii he lɛ, amɛnyɛɔ amɛkɛ aboloo damɔɔ shi kɛhãa lɛ. Yesu tsɔɔ akɛ mɛi ni sɔmɔɔ Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ baanyɛ asɔle kɛ nɔmimaa akɛ: “Hã wɔ ŋmɛnɛ wɔdaa ŋmãa [loo aboloo].” (Mateo 6:11) “Ŋmaa [loo aboloo]” ni akɛtsu nii yɛ biɛ lɛ damɔ shi kɛhã niyenii, ni nɔ ni Yesu tsɔɔ lɛ ji akɛ, wɔbaanyɛ wɔkɛ wɔhiɛ afɔ̃ Nyɔŋmɔ nɔ akɛ ebaahã wɔ wɔdaaŋ ŋmaa daa.—Lala 37:25.

Kɛ̃lɛ, nɔ ko yɛ ni he yɛ sɛɛnamɔ kwraa fe aboloo, loo niyenii. Yesu wie akɛ: “Jeee aboloo kɛkɛ hãa gbɔmɔ yi naa wala; shi moŋ wiemɔ fɛɛ wiemɔ ni jɛɔ Nyɔŋmɔ daaŋ lɛ.” (Mateo 4:4) Ewiemɔ lɛ kɔɔ be ni Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ Israelbii lɛ be ni amɛnyiɛ ŋa lɛ nɔ lɛ he. Enɛ je shishi be ni amɛshi Mizraim sɛɛ nɔŋŋ. Aaafee nyɔɔŋ kome nɛ ni amɛshɛ Sinai Ŋa lɛ nɔ, ni amɛniyenii lɛ ebɔi tãa. Akɛni amɛtsui fã akɛ amɛbaagboi yɛ ŋa ni nɔ ko nɔ ko bɛ nɔ lɛ nɔ hewɔ lɛ, amɛtɔke akɛ: “Wɔyeɔ nii [aboloo] wɔtɔrɔɔ” yɛ Mizraim.—2 Mose 16:1-3.

Anɔkwa, aboloo ni ashãa yɛ Mizraim lɛ ŋɔɔ. Yɛ Mose beaŋ lɛ, nishãlɔi ni he esa waa hãa Mizraimbii lɛ aboloo kɛ keeki henɔi srɔtoi babaoo. Kɛ̃lɛ, Yehowa shĩii ewebii lɛ, ehã amɛ aboloo ko kɛ̃. Ewo  amɛ shi akɛ: “Mibahã aboloo ajɛ ŋwɛi anɛ ahã nyɛ.” Ni lɛɛlɛŋ hu, leebi maŋkpa lɛ, aboloo ni jɛ ŋwɛi nɛɛ ebashwie shi. Eyɛ “kokrobii bibii” tamɔ bɔ loo aisi. Be ni Israelbii lɛ na nii nɛɛ klɛŋklɛŋ kwraa lɛ, amɛbi akɛ “mɛni nɛ?” Mose hã amɛ hetoo akɛ: “Aboloo ní Yehowa hã nyɛ ni nyɛye lɛ nɛ.” Amɛtsɛ lɛ mana, * ni aboloo nɛɛ ji niyenii ni amɛye afii 40 ni nyiɛ sɛɛ lɛ.—2 Mose 16:4, 13-15, 31.

Shishijee lɛ, Israelbii lɛ nya mana ni atsɔ̃ naakpɛɛ gbɛ nɔ ahã amɛ lɛ he. Eŋɔɔmɔ tamɔ “akpaanɔ̃ɔ kɛ wò” ni efa bɔ ni baashɛ mɔ fɛɛ mɔ. (2 Mose 16:18) Shi be ni be shwie mli lɛ, amɛshwe ni amɛná niyenii srɔtoi ni amɛye yɛ Mizraim lɛ. Amɛwie huhuuhu akɛ, “wɔnaaa nɔ ko nɔ ko kwraa akɛ ja mána nɛɛ pɛ!” (4 Mose 11:6) Sɛɛ mli lɛ, amɛmli fu ni amɛkɛɛ: “Niyenii gbonyo nɛɛ eje wɔtsine.” (4 Mose 21:5) Yɛ naagbee lɛ, “ŋwɛi aboloo” lɛ yeli je amɛtsine ni ebatsɔ nyaŋemɔ nii ehã amɛ.—Lala 105:40.

Eji anɔkwale akɛ nibii pii yɛ ni ewaaa akɛ mɔ aaaku ehiɛ ashwie nɔ, ni nakai eji yɛ aboloo hu gbɛfaŋ. Shi Biblia lɛ wieɔ aboloo henɔ ko ni nɔ bɛ ni esaaa akɛ akuɔ hiɛ afɔ̃ɔ nɔ kɔkɔɔkɔ lɛ he. Yesu kɛ aboloo ni baanyɛ ahã mɔ ana jɔɔmɔi kɛya naanɔ nɛɛ to mana ni Israelbii trumui lɛ kpoo lɛ he.

Yesu kɛɛ etoibolɔi lɛ akɛ, “Miji wala aboloo lɛ. Nyɛtsɛmɛi lɛ ye mána yɛ ŋa lɛ nɔ ni amɛgboi. Enɛ ji aboloo ni jɛɔ ŋwɛi baa lɛ, koni gbɔmɔ aye ni ekagbo. Miji aboloo ni hiɛ kã ni jɛ ŋwɛi ba lɛ; kɛji mɔ ko ye aboloo nɛɛ eko lɛ, ehiɛ aaakã kɛaatee naanɔ. Shi aboloo ni mikɛbaahã lɛ, ji miheloo ni mikɛbaahã yɛ je lɛ wala hewɔ lɛ.”—Yohane 6:48-51.

 Yesu toibolɔi lɛ ateŋ mɛi pii eyanuuu bɔ ni ewie “aboloo” kɛ ‘heloo’ he yɛ mfonirifeemɔŋ lɛ shishi. Kɛ̃lɛ, eji nɔkwɛmɔnɔ ni sa jogbaŋŋ. Aboloo diɛŋtsɛ hã Yudafoi lɛ hi wala mli gbi fɛɛ gbi, tamɔ bɔ ni mana lɛ hã Israelbii lɛ hi wala mli afii 40 yɛ ŋa lɛ nɔ lɛ nɔŋŋ. Eyɛ mli akɛ mana lɛ ji nikeenii ni jɛ Nyɔŋmɔ ŋɔɔ moŋ, shi ehãaa mɔ aná naanɔ wala. Nɔ ni tamɔɔɔ nakai lɛ, Yesu afɔleshãa lɛ hãa mɛi ni náa emli hemɔkɛyeli lɛ naa naanɔ wala. Eji “wala aboloo” lɛɛlɛŋ.

Ekolɛ kɛ́ onu hɔmɔ he lɛ, otaoɔ niyenii sɛɛ gbɛ. Ni esa akɛ oda Nyɔŋmɔ shi akɛ ehãa bo ‘daa ŋmãa.’ (Mateo 6:11) Bɔ ni kɛ́ wɔye niyenii ko ni ŋɔɔ ni wɔhiɛ sɔɔ lɛ, nakai nɔŋŋ esa akɛ wɔhiɛ asɔ jɔɔmɔi ni Yesu Kristo ni ji “wala aboloo” lɛ baahã wɔná lɛ.

Mɛɛ gbɛ nɔ wɔbaanyɛ wɔhã ana akɛ wɔtamɔɔɔ Israelbii ni hi shi yɛ Mose beaŋ ni hiɛ esɔɔɔ nii lɛ, ni akɛ wɔ lɛ, wɔhiɛ sɔɔ aboloo ni jara wa waa ni nɔ bɛ nɛɛ? Yesu kɛɛ akɛ “Kɛji nyɛmiisumɔ mi lɛ, nyɛaaye mikitãi lɛ anɔ.” (Yohane 14:15) Kɛ́ wɔye Yesu kitãi lɛ anɔ lɛ, wɔyɛ gbɛkpamɔ akɛ wɔbaaye aboloo daa kɛbaaya naanɔi anaanɔ.—5 Mose 12:7.
