Nave nihitxompeleke oya omathukumaneloni wahu, ntoko akina akhovelenlaya. Nto, nlipiseryaneke, opwahasa musuwelakatho wi ninnatxamela nihiku na orwa wa Apwiya.” (Ahebri 10:24, 25) Anna akhweya yaaniikoha ntakhara heeni Paulo ayaaka waaleela wi ekhwelaneke moopwahaxa. Mu iyaakha vakhaani ohoolo waya, nthowa nimoha naahikhala nawooneya. Mu elukuluku yeele, awo yaahoona wi nihiku na Yehova na omuthoriha Yerusalemu naari vakhiviru. Awo yaahisuwela wi yaaphwanela ochawa mpooma hiiha ntoko Yesu aaleenleiye weera. (Luka 21:20-22; Saweriwa T’arummwa 2:19, 20) Nihiku nle na Yehova naahiphiya mu eyaakha ya makhumi mathanu napiili, vaavaa Aroma yaamutolonxaaya Yerusalemu.

2. Ntakhara heeni ninnaphwanela wuupuwelela vooloca sa olipihana mmahiku ahu?

 ² Olelotho, nri mmukhalelo woolikana. Nihiku “ntokotoko ni na wopiha” na Yehova nohaacamela.

3. Tiheeni murummwa Paulo aalonceiye sa olipiha? (Moone eruku yoopacerya.)

³ “Okatxamiheya ti wawiniha murima, nsu norèra ninnahakalaliha murima.” (Masiposipo 12:25) Oothene hiyo mu ilukuluku ikina ninnakhwela nlipiho.

Owo aahaarepela annawe o Roma: “Txhiryene miyo kinnakhwela vatokovene owonani wi kovaheni mahala a Munepa awolipihani, ti wi nlipihaneke wa nthowa na nroromelo nyuwo ni miyo nryahuno.” (Aroma 1:11, 12) Ophiyerya wi murummwa Paulo aanachuna nlipiho mu ilukuluku ikina.—Mwaalakhanye Aroma 15:30-32.

Oothene yaala anniilipiserya omaliha elukuluku yincipale emurumeelaka Yehova. Mwawiihiiha nnaphwanela waalipiha.

(Masiposipo 31:28, 31) Akristu yaawo anavilela ni wiikariwa naari aniiceliwa annachunatho olipihiwa. (2 Tesalónika 1:3-5) Yehova ni Yesu annaahakalaliha oothene yaale ari oororomeleya.—Mwaalakhanye 2 Tesalónika 2:16, 17.

6. Tuuvi ori murici wa “asitokwene” alociwe mu Isaiya 32:1, 2?

 ⁷ Atokweene anaphwanela omutakiherya murummwa Paulo, yoowo ilukuluku soothene eererya waalipiha annawe. Owo aahaarepela Akristu o Tesalonika yaawo yaahoolela wiikariwa: “Hiyotho, wa nthowa na wokhwelani wahu, nanakhwela wovahani tahi Mutxhakaru wa Muluku, nto ekumi ahutho, wona wi nantepa wokhwelani.”—1 Tesalónika 2:8.

⁸ Atokweene ananwerya okhala oolipihaxa orweela wa yeeyo analocaaya. Nyenya apwanne ilukuluku soothene ela ennaakhwana? Paulo aahaaleela atokweene o Efeso: “[Munnaphwanela] wakhaviherya alipa òthoiwa, mupuwelaka masu a Apwiya Yesu, wi yole onavaha ori òrèriwa [oohakalala] ompwaha yole onakhela.” (Saweriwa T’arummwa 20:35) Paulo aari oolakelela ‘wavaha sothene aryeiyeno, ni wileva’ ntakhara annawe. Owo aahooniherya moorweela mu saweera sawe wi aari ooreheryeya weera echu eri yoothene ntakhara yaawo. (2 Korinto 12:15) Moolikana, atokweene anaphwanela okhala oolipiha ni waahakalaliha akina ohiya pahiru moorweela wa yeeyo analocaaya, komatho wa yeeyo anapakaaya. Eyo ennooniherya wi chiri annanikhapelela.—1 Korinto 14:3.

Owo aahivaha ekano yakuru mu miloko so Efeso, Perkamu, ni Tiyatíra. Nto ahaakumve ovaha ekano, aahaathamalela ntakhara ichu soothene saphaama yaapakaaya. (Wupulula 2:1-5, 12, 13, 18, 19) Yesu aahiloca wa muloko wo Laotikaya: “Yale kinàkhwelaka, kinnàsamela ni kinnàlaka. Tiva, okhale òlipiserya ni orukunuse murima.” (Wupulula 3:19) Atokweene ahu anneererya omutakiherya Kristu mmukhalelo anavahaaya ekano.

10. Oothene ahu nni nlipihane hai?

¹⁰ Tahi atokweeneru anaphwanela waalipiha akina. Paulo aahaaceenyerya Akristu oothene oloca ‘masu aphama wi yunnuwihe nroromelo naya wi ewereleke akina eri yaphama.’ (Éfeso 4:29) Muchu ti muchu a hiyo onaphwanela wuupuwelela vooloca sa yeeyo nneeraahu nipake wi naakhaviherye akina. Paulo aahaarepela Akristu yaawo yaari Ahepri: “Vìhani mata anyu òvelevela ni makutha anyu òtxetxheya. Okololani iphiro wa inani sanyu wi mwetxo worakala ohikokhowe, nto openuwe.” (Ahebri 12:12, 13) Oothene ahu nnanwerya olipihana orweela wa yeeyo nnalocaahu, naamwi nri amiravo.

11. Tiheeni yaamukhavihenrye Marta vaava aareiye awuukhuwa?

¹¹ Murokora mmoha oniichaniwa Marta aahikhala awuukhuwa mu elukuluku ekina. * (Moone masu avathi.)

12, 13. Nni nipharihele hai ekano enaphwanyeya mu Filipi 2:1-4?

Muhere etxhu wa nthowa na owanawana, nari na wisona, nto ni wiyeviha ni n’wonaka akhwinyu ntoko atokwene anopwahani nyuwo. Muhithokorerye sanyuru, nto sa akhwinyutho.”—Filipi 2:1-4.

Murummwa Yohani aahirepa: “Nkano ohakalala onapwaha vava vosuwela wi anaka anetxa mwa eparipari.” (3 Yohani 4) Mapiyoneero annahakalala vaavaa anasuwelaaya wi muchu yoowo yaamukhavihenryaaya ohuserya eparipari khalai nlelo onnamurumeela Yehova moororomeleya, akhweyatho piyoneero. Mwawiihiiha wakhala wi mapiyoneero annaceecheya, nnaphwanela owuupuxerya  ichu soothene saphaama apankaaya mu waakhaviherya akina.

Wakhala wi awotho hanooniherya otheya, munanwerya osuwela wi akhweya yookhala enaakacamiha, nave wi annamuchuna muchu ochekulano. Munanwerya waakhaviherya pahiru moorweela wa waawiriyana.—Tiyako 1:19.

17. Tiheeni yaamulipinhe munna mmoha?

¹⁷ Munna yoowo ori mmiravo oniichaniwa Henri aahitepa wuukhuwa vaavaa amusi awe ancipale yaamanlaaya omurumeela Yehova. Mmoha a yaawo yaari apaapawe, yaawo yaari mutokweene.

Owotho aahilipiheya moorweela wa omwaalakhanya Salumu 46, Sofoniya 3:17, ni Marko 10:29, 30.

18. (1) Tiheeni Mwene Soolomoni aarempeiye vooloca sa nlipiho? (2) Tiheeni murummwa Paulo aalonceiye?

¹⁸ Tiheeni nnahuseryaahu orweela wa yaweereya ya Marta ni Henri? Mmoha ti mmoha a hiyo onanwerya omuhakararya ni omulipiha munna naari murokora onachuna nlipiho. Mwene Solomoni aahirepa: “Nsu n’eparipari t’etxhu yorèra elukuluku yophwanelela. Oweha wokhurunuwa onnahakalaliha murima, mutxhaka waphama onnavaha ikuru.” (Masiposipo 15:23, 30) Apwanne mwanwerya omuupuwela muchu yoowo mmusuwenlaanyu wi ori awuukhuwa naari oothanana? Ntakhara heeni hamunapaka echu yookhweya ntoko omwaalakhanyerya Mulipeleli naari omooniha ikaruma mu site ahu. Navetho, Paulo aahihusiha wi wiipa macipo a Omwene vamoha ennaneeriha okhala phaama. Owo aahirepa: “Muhusihanaka ni mulipihanaka ni miruku sothene, mmwipelaka mmurimani mwanyu Muluku vomuthamala ni masalmo, mathamalelo ni matxipo ammunepani.”—Kolosi 3:16; Saweriwa T’arummwa 16:25.
