LOD DƐN WE WI NID FƆ TOT
4. Wetin mek di prɔmis we wi mek fɔ se wi go sav Jiova sote go nɔto tin we at fɔ du? (Luk bak di pikchɔ.)

Fɔ du ɔl wetin wi dɔn prɔmis Jiova na tin we rili siriɔs, bɔt nɔto tin we at fɔ du. Afta ɔl, Jiova mek wi fɔ du wetin i want.

(Sam 40:8) Dɔn bak, we wi de du wetin Gɔd want ɛn de fala in Bɔypikin, wi “go fil fayn.”—Mat. 11:28-30.

Bifo dat, fɔ lɛ wi mek Gɔd ɛn Krays gladi fɔ wi, wi nid fɔ du di tin dɛn we wi fɔ du insay di famili. (1 Tim. 5:4, 8) We wi du dat, wi go gladi mɔ ɛn mɔ. Afta ɔl, Jiova no se famili dɛn go gladi we maredman ɛn in wɛf lɛk ɛn rɛspɛkt dɛnsɛf, ɛn we mama ɛn papa dɛn lɛk ɛn tren dɛn pikin dɛn, ɛn we pikin dɛn de obe dɛn mama ɛn papa dɛn.—Ɛfi. 5:33; 6:1, 4.

Bɔt i nɔ de protɛkt wi frɔm di bad tin dɛn we go apin to wi we wi disayd fɔ du tin dɛn we nɔ rayt.

Di tin dɛn we wi kin disayd fɔ du sɔntɛnde kin mek wi gɛt gilti kɔnshɛns. Bɔt, we wi no se wi gɛt fɔ ansa fɔ di tin dɛn we wi de disayd fɔ du, dat go mek wi kɔnfɛs wi sin dɛn, kɔrɛkt wi mistek dɛn, ɛn avɔyd fɔ ripit di sem mistek dɛn. We wi du dɛn tin dɛn ya, dat go ɛp wi fɔ kɔntinyu fɔ rɔn di res fɔ layf.
9. Wetin yu go du if yu bin dɔn disayd fɔ du di rɔng tin? (Luk bak di pikchɔ.)
9 Aw yu go ebul tot di lod? If yu bin dɔn disayd fɔ du sɔntin we nɔ rayt, wetin yu go du? No se yu nɔ go ebul fɔ chenj di tin dɛn we bin dɔn apin.

As yu de du dat, wan dawt nɔ de se Jiova go fɔgiv yu ɛn gi yu di sɔpɔt we yu nid.—Sam 103:8-13.
LOD DƐN WE WI NID FƆ “TROWE”
10. Wetin mek pɔsin in at go pwɛl if i de fil ɔltɛm se i nid fɔ du mɔ? (Galeshians 6:4)
10 We wi de fil ɔltɛm se wi nid fɔ du mɔ. Wi at kin pwɛl we wi de kɔmpia wisɛf wit ɔda pipul dɛn. (Rid Galeshians 6:4.) If ɔltɛm wi de kɔmpia wisɛf wit ɔda pipul dɛn, dat go mek wi bigin jɛlɔs dɛn ɛn mek kɔmpitishɔn wit dɛn. (Gal. 5:26) If wi de tray fɔ du tin dɛn we ɔda pipul dɛn de du pan ɔl we wi no se wi nɔ go ebul fɔ du dɛn, dat go mek wi ambɔg wisɛf. Dɔn bak, tink bɔt dis: Di Baybul tɛl wi se wi at kin pwɛl we wi de wet fɔ sɔntin. (Prɔv. 13:12) So wi at go rili pwɛl if wi de wet fɔ sɔntin we wi nɔ go ɛva gɛt. Dat go mek wi rili slo ɛn taya we wi de rɔn di res fɔ layf.—Prɔv. 24:10.

(2 Kɔr. 8:12) Biliv se Jiova nɔ de kɔmpia wetin yu de du to wetin ɔda pipul dɛn de du. (Mat. 25:20-23) I valyu di wok we yu ebul fɔ du wit ɔl yu at, di fet we yu gɛt, ɛn we yu de bia. Put yusɛf dɔŋ ɛn gri se yu ej, yu wɛlbɔdi, ɛn di tin dɛn we de apin to yu nɔ go alaw yu fɔ du di tin dɛn we yu want fɔ du naw. Lɛk Bazilay, we yu gɛt wɛlbɔdi prɔblɛm, nɔ gri fɔ tek ɛni wok we yu no se yu nɔ ebul fɔ du. (2 Sam. 19:35, 36) Ɛn lɛk Mozis, gri fɔ lɛ dɛn ɛp yu ɛn gi ɔda pipul dɛn wok we nid de fɔ du dat. (Ɛks. 18:21, 22) We yu put yusɛf dɔŋ, dat go mek yu nɔ tink se yu go ebul fɔ du tin dɛn we go mek yu taya bad bad wan we yu de rɔn di res fɔ layf.

If wi kɔnfɛs wi sin, ripɛnt, ɛn du tin dɛn we go mek wi nɔ ripit wi sin, wan dawt nɔ de se Jiova dɔn fɔgiv wi. (Akt 3:19) Afta wi dɔn du dɛn tin dɛn ya, Jiova nɔ want mek wi kɔntinyu fɔ de fil gilti. I no se if wi kɔntinyu fɔ de fil gilti, dat go ambɔg wi. (Sam 31:10) If wi alaw wi at fɔ pwɛl pasmak, sɔntɛm wi go giv-ɔp fɔ rɔn di res fɔ layf.—2 Kɔr. 2:7.
