(Lɛta Fɔ Kɔlɔse 1:​9, NW) Pɔl bin se: “Una nɔ mek ɛnibɔdi agyu wit una ɛn tek lay mek una ful, ilɛk sɛf i tan lɛkɛ se na tru dɛn de tɔk. Una luk shap, mek nɔbɔdi nɔ mek una ful ɛn tɔn una lɛkɛ slev wit in yon mɔtalman sɛns we nɔ min natin; di tin dɛn we dɛn pipul ya de tɔk na wetin dɛn lɔntɛm pipul bin de lan pipul, ɛn na dɛn spirit we de rul dis wɔl mek dɛn no dɛn tin ya.

7. Aw tru rilijɔn go mek yu gladi?

7 Yu tink se wi go rili gladi if wi nɔ de na ɛni rilijɔn? Yɛs, pɔsin kin gladi if i nɔ de na lay lay rilijɔn. Bɔt nɔbɔdi nɔ go rili gladi if i nɔ bi Jiova in padi, “di Gɔd we gladi ɔltɛm.” (Fɔs Lɛta To Timoti 1:​11NW) Ɔl di tin dɛn we Jiova de du de ɛp ɔda pipul dɛn. As in savant dɛn, wisɛf gladi bikɔs wi de luk fɔ we dɛn fɔ ɛp ɔda pipul dɛn. (Di Apɔsul Dɛn Wok [Akt] 20:​35) Fɔ ɛgzampul, tink bɔt aw tru wɔship kin ɛp di famili fɔ gɛt gladi at.

Jiova gɛt di rayt fɔ mek lɔ dɛn fɔ wi bikɔs na in mek wi. I se na man ɛn uman we dɔn mared nɔmɔ fɔ du mami ɛn dadi biznɛs. Jiova gi wi lɔ dɛn bikɔs i lɛk wi. I no se dɛn go bɛnifit wi if wi fala dɛn.

Jizɔs bin se: “Ɛni man we luk uman, we nɔto in wɛf, sote i want am fɔ insɛf, da man de dɔn tek ɔda man wɛf nain at. So if yu rayt yay de mek yu sin, rut am kɔmɔt ɛn trowe am!” (Matyu 5:​28, 29) So na fɔ avɔyd rud rud pikchɔ dɛn ɛn myuzik dɛn we de tɔk bɔt mami ɛn dadi biznɛs di we aw Gɔd nɔ want. Pɔl bin rayt se: “Una fɔ kil di tin dɛn we de insay una at . . . we dɛn ɔda mɔtalman de du, dat na fɔ liv fri ɔ dɔti layf.” (Lɛta Fɔ Kɔlɔse 3:​5) Wi nid bak fɔ kɔntrol wetin wi de tink ɛn tɔk bɔt.—Lɛta Fɔ Ɛfisɔs 5:​3-5.

Bɔt pan ɔl dat i vɛks, ɛn i nɔ gladi.
