4, 5. (a) Ebigambo ‘okukunda Ruhanga’ nibimanyisa ki? (b) Rukundo ei oyiniire Yehova ekatandika eta kukura?

6 Kwonka rukundo egyo ei waagiriire Ruhanga ekaba eri entandikiriro. Nk’eky’okureeberaho, waaba nookunda omuntu, nookora ekirikukira aha kumugambira ngu ‘noomukunda.’ Rukundo ei omwiniire neekuhiga kukora ebirikumushemeza.

Kwonka emisingye ei arikutuha neetuhwera kucwamu gye. Eby’okweshemeza ebiriho hati biijwiremu obushaarizi n’okuteerana. Baibuli neeyoreka ngu Yehova naayanga ‘abarikukunda’ obushaarizi, kandi ngu ‘abashambani naija kubacwera orubanja.’ (Zaaburi 11:5; Abaheburaayo 13:4) Emisingye egi neebaasa kutuhwera eta kucwamu gye? Twamanya ngu Yehova naayanga ekintu nari ngu naakireeba nk’ekirikuhemurana, tushemereire kukyetantara.
10, 11. Ahabw’enki nitworobera Yehova?
10 Ahabw’enki nitworobera Yehova? Ti ahabw’okugira ngu nitwenda kwetantara kufubirwa nari oburemeezi oburikuruga omu kucwamu kubi. (Abagalatia 6:7) Ngaaha! Kureka nitworobera Yehova ahabw’okumukunda. Nk’oku abaana barikuba nibenda kushemeza ishebo, naitwe nituba nitwenda kushemeza Tataitwe ow’omu iguru. Ka nikishemeza munonga kumanya ngu Yehova naasiima ebi turikukora!—Zaaburi 5:12; Enfumu 12:2; reeba Ebirikukiraho 2.
11 Titurikworobera Yehova obu kirikuba kyorobi Eky’Ebiragiro 12:32) Kureka, nitumworobera omu bwijwire, nk’omuhandiiki wa Zaaburi owaagizire ati: ‘Ninshemezibwa ebiragiro byawe, kandi nimbikunda.’ (Zaaburi 119:47; Abarooma 6:17) Nitwenda kuba nka Noa, owaayorekire ngu naakunda Yehova arikukora buri kimwe eki yaamuragiire kukora. Baibuli neegira ngu Noa akaba “nikwo yaatwaza.” (Okutandika 6:22) Naiwe nooyenda Yehova akugambeho atyo?

12 Yehova naayehurira ata twamworobera? ‘Nitushemeza omutima’ gwe. (Enfumu 11:20; 27:11) Hati teekateeka ahari ekyo! Nitushemeza Omuhangi w’ebintu byona twamworobera. Kwonka tarikutugyema kukikora. Kureka atuhaire obugabe bw’okwecweramu. Eki nikimanyisa ngu twine obugabe bw’okucwamu kukora ekihikire nari ekigwire. Yehova naayenda ngu rukundo ei tumwiniire etuhigye kucwamu gye, kubaasa kutunga amagara agarikukirayo oburungi nk’oku kirikubaasika.—Eky’Ebiragiro 30:15, 16, 19, 20; reeba Ebirikukiraho 3.
‘EBIRAGIRO BYE TIBIRIKURUTSYA’
13, 14. Nituhamya tuta ngu ebiragiro bya Ruhanga tibigumire munonga kubyorobera? Ha eky’okureeberaho.
13 Kwonka shi ku twakuba nituteekateeka ngu ebiragiro bya Yehova bigumire munonga kworobera, nari ngu nibituremesa kugira obugabe? Baibuli neekyoreka gye ngu ‘ebiragiro bye tibirikurutsya.’ (1 Yohaana 5:3) Ekigambo ky’Orugriika ‘okurutsya’ nikimanyisa “okuremeera.” Omu byahandiikirwe ebindi, ekigambo eki nikikoresibwa kumanyisa ebiragiro by’amaremesa nari abantu abarikutegyeka abandi, kandi bakabakora kubi. (Matayo 23:4; Ebyakozirwe 20:29, 30) Baibuli eya New English Translation yo neegira ngu “ebiragiro bye tibirikutukiza amaani.” Ebiragiro bya Yehova ‘tibirikuremeera,’ ekirikumanyisa ngu tibigumire munonga kuturema kubyorobera. Butoosha ebi arikutushaba ti maremesa.
14 Nk’eky’okureeberaho, ka tugire ngu oriyo noohwera munywani waawe kufuruka kuza omu nju endiijo. Ebintu bye byona abitaire omu bibokusi. Ebimwe tibirikuremeera kandi byorobi kukiriza, kwonka ebindi nibiremeera munonga biine kukirizibwa abantu babiri. Mbwenu shi munywani waawe naija kukushaba kukiriza wenka ekibokusi ekirikuremeera munonga? Ngaaha tarikubaasa! Ahabw’enki? Ahakuba tarikwenda ngu ohendekye. Nka munywani waawe ogwo, Yehova tarikubaasa kutushaba kukora ekintu ekigumire munonga. (Eky’Ebiragiro 30:11-14) Yehova naayetegyereza gye oku tukozirwe. “Naamanya obuhangwa bwaitu, naijuka ku turi omucuucu.”—Zaaburi 103:14.
15. Ahabw’enki nitubaasa kuhamya ngu ebiragiro bya Yehova n’eby’oburungi bwaitu?
15 Musa akagambira eihanga rya Israeli ngu ebiragiro bya Yehova bikaba biri eby’oburungi bwabo, ‘n’okukiza amagara’ gaabo baabyorobera. (Eky’Ebiragiro 5:28-33; 6:24) Nikyo kimwe n’obunaku obu. Buri kimwe eki Yehova arikutushaba kukora nikiija kutuhwera kuba gye. (Shoma Isaaya 48:17.) Tataitwe Yehova butoosha naamanya ekiraatugasire. (Abarooma 11:33) Baibuli neegira eti: “Ruhanga [ni] rukundo.” (1 Yohaana 4:8) Eki nikimanyisa ngu buri kimwe eki Yehova arikugamba n’eki arikukora naahigwa rukundo.
16. Nitumanya tuta ngu nitubaasa kworobera Yehova n’obu turaabe turi abatahikiriire kandi turikutuura omu nsi esiisikaire?
1 Yohaana 5:19) Kandi twine kurwanisa enyehurira zaitu n’ebiteekateeko byaitu ebitahikiriire, ebirikubaasa kutureetera kugomera Ruhanga. (Abarooma 7:21-25) Kwonka rukundo ei twiniire Yehova neetuha amaani g’okukora ebihikire. Naareeba okuteeraho kwaitu kumworobera, kandi naatuhwera arikutuha omwoyo gwe gurikwera ogw’amaani maingi. (1 Samueli 15:22, 23; Ebyakozirwe 5:32) Omwoyo ogu nigutuhwera kugira emitwarize erikutubaasisa kumworobera tutagumiirwe.—Abagalatia 5:22, 23.
16 Hariho obumwe obu kirikutugumira kworobera Ruhanga. Nitutuura omu ensi esiisikaire munonga, kandi eri ahansi y’obutegyeki bw’Omuregi. Naateeraho kureetera abantu kukora ebibi. (17, 18. (a) Nituza kwega ki omu kitabo eki? (b) Nituza kushwijuma ki omu shuura erikukurataho?
17 Omu kitabo eki, nituza kwega oku turikubaasa kutwaza omu muringo ogurikushemeza Yehova. Nituza kwega oku turikubaasa kugyendera aha misingye ye n’emitindo ye ey’emicwe omu bi turikukora. Ijuka ngu Yehova tarikutugyema kumworobera. Twacwamu kumworobera, nitugira amagara marungi, kandi ebiro byaitu eby’omumaisho nibiija kuba birungi. Ekikuru munonga, ku turikworobera Yehova nitworeka ngu nitumukunda.—Reeba Ebirikukiraho 4.
18 Yehova kubaasa kutuhwera kumanya ekihikire n’ekigwire, buri omwe ahariitwe akamuha omuntu w’omunda. Twatendeka gye omuntu waitu w’omunda, naabaasa kutuhwera ‘kworobera ebiragiro bye.’ Omuntu waitu w’omunda niki, kandi nitumutendeka tuta? Ka tureebe.
