Mɔlebɛbo Baebolo buluku ne ka kɛzi Nyamenle bɔle azɛlɛ ne kɛnlɛma la anwo edwɛkɛ. Alumua ne, bɛhanle azɛlɛ ne anwo edwɛkɛ kɛ “[ɔnzɔho] ɛhwee, yɛɛ debie biala ɛnle zolɛ; awozinli ɛheda buma ne anye.” Noko, bɛhanle ye wienyi kɛ ɛnee “nzule” mɔɔ hyia maa ngoane la wɔ azɛlɛ ne azo. (Mɔlebɛbo 1:2) Akee Nyamenle hanle kɛ: “Wienyi ɛrɛla.” (Mɔlebɛbo 1:3) Ɔda ali kɛ sɛnzɛne ne manle wienyi vindele anwomanyunlu na azɛlɛ ne azo yɛle wienyi wɔ mekɛ mɔɔ lumua la. Akee bɛhanle azɛlɛ resee nee nyevile nwo edwɛkɛ. (Mɔlebɛbo 1:9, 10) Bieko, “ndile nee mbaka ngakyile kɔsɔɔti mɔɔ so ma, yɛɛ nzoleɛ mbaka mɔɔ ma wɔ bɛ nzoleɛ ne mɔ anu” la fifile azɛlɛ ye azo. (Mɔlebɛbo 1:12) Ninyɛne mɔɔ hyia na debie anyi nee ewia mɔɔ hyia na abɔdeɛ ngakyile ayɛ bɛ aleɛ la rale. Bodane boni a bɛvale bɛyɛle ninyɛne ɛhye a?
Tete ngapezonli Ayezaya hanle Nyamenle anwo edwɛkɛ kɛ “Yemɔ mɔɔ ɔhyehyɛle na ɔbɔle azɛlɛ ye la, ɔbɔle ɔmanle ɔlile munli, yeambɔ ye sesakaa biala yeanzie ɛkɛ; ɔbɔle ewiade, amaa sonla adɛnla nu.” (Ayezaya 45:18) Ɔda ali kɛ, Nyamenle bodane a le kɛ ɔmaa sonla adɛnla azɛlɛ ye azo dahuu.
Ɔyɛ alɔbɔlɛ kɛ, sonla annea Nyamenle ahyɛlɛdeɛ kɛnlɛma ɛhye azo boɛ na ɔlɛsɛkye ye a. Noko, Bɔvolɛ ne bodane ɛtɛkakyile.

Ye ɛwɔkɛ biala, ɔdi zo; ɔka, na ɔyɛ zɔ.’ (Ɛdianlɛ 23:19) Nɔhalɛ nu, kɛ anrɛɛ Nyamenle banlea yeamaa bɛazɛkye azɛlɛ ye la, mekɛ ɛlɛbikye ndɛndɛ mɔɔ ɔbazɛkye “bɛdabɛ mɔɔ bɛsɛkye azɛlɛ ye la.”
AZƐLƐ YE BAYƐ YƐ SUA NU DAHUU
Gyisɛse Kelaese hanle wɔ ye Boka Zo Edwɛkɛhanlɛ ne mɔɔ ɛlie duma la anu kɛ: “Nyilalɛ ɛha bɛdabɛ mɔɔ bɛle bɛlɛvo la; Azɛlɛ ye bayɛ bɛ ɛdeɛ!” (Mateyu 5:5) Nzinlii wɔ edwɛkɛhanlɛ ko ne ala anu, Gyisɛse hilele adenle mɔɔ bɛbalua zo bɛalie azɛlɛ ne na bɛanzɛkye ye la. Ɔhilele ye ɛdoavolɛma kɛ bɛyɛ asɔne kɛ: ‘Wɔ Belemgbunlililɛ ɛrɛla. Bɛyɛ wɔ ɛhulolɛdeɛ wɔ azɛlɛ ye azo, kɛmɔ bɛyɛ ye wɔ anwuma lɔ la.’ Ɛhɛe, Nyamenle Belemgbunlililɛ ne, anzɛɛ arane ne bamaa Nyamenle bodane ara nu amaa azɛlɛ ye.
Nyamenle hanle nzenzaleɛ kɛnlɛma mɔɔ Belemgbunlililɛ ne bava ara la anwo edwɛkɛ kɛ: “Kɛkala, meyɛ ninyɛne kɔsɔɔti fofolɛ!” (Yekile 21:5) Asoo ɛhye kile kɛ Nyamenle bava azɛlɛ fofolɛ azie mɔɔ wɔ ɛkɛ ne la agyakɛ anu? Kyɛkyɛ, ɛtane biala ɛnle azɛlɛ ne anwo. Emomu, Nyamenle bazɛkye menli mɔɔ bɛlɛmaa ninyɛne azɛkye wɔ azɛlɛ ye azo, “bɛdabɛ mɔɔ bɛsɛkye azɛlɛ ye la,” mɔɔ le sonla arane mɔɔ ɛlɛdi tumi ɛnɛ la. Bɛbava “anwuma fofolɛ nee azɛlɛ fofolɛ”
Amaa Nyamenle aye ninyɛne mɔɔ sonla ɛzɛkye ye wɔ azɛlɛ ye azo avi ɛkɛ ne la, ɔbayɛ ye boɛ bieko. Sunsum ne hanle edwɛndolɛnli ne manle ɔhanle mɔɔ Nyamenle bayɛ la anwo edwɛkɛ kɛ: “Ɛkpɔla azɛlɛ ye na ɛtɔ nzule ɛgua zo; ɛmaa ɔyɛ mɔɔ kye aleɛ la.” Saa maanle nu tɛnlabelɛ yɛ kpalɛ na yɛnyia Nyamenle nyilalɛ a, azɛlɛ ne bayɛ paladaese na yeahye aleɛ dɔɔnwo.
Kɛmɔ ye kɛlɛhɛlɛvolɛ Pyarelal kile la, Mohandas Gandhi mɔɔ le India sunsum nu adekilevolɛ mɔɔ ɛwu la hanle kɛ: “Azɛlɛ maa yɛnyia aleɛ dɔɔnwo mɔɔ baza awie biala na tɛ mɔɔ bamaa sonla biala ayɛ anyebolo la.” Nyamenle Belemgbunlililɛ ne bamaa menli subane ahakyi na yeaye debie mɔɔ fa ngyegyelɛ ba azɛlɛ ne azo la yeavi ɛkɛ. Ngapezonli Ayezaya hanle kɛ wɔ Belemgbunlililɛ ne tumililɛ bo, menli ‘ɛnrɛboda anzɛɛ ɛnrɛhu’ bɛ nwo anzɛɛ ɛnrɛzɛkye azɛlɛ ne. (Ayezaya 11:9) Nɔhalɛ nu, ɛnɛ menli mgbe dɔɔnwo mɔɔ vi ɛleka ngakyile la ɛlɛsukoa Nyamenle ngyinlazo kpalɛ ne anwo debie. Bɛlɛkile bɛ kɛ bɛhulo Nyamenle nee bɛ gɔnwo mɔ, bɛnyia anyezɔlɛ, bɛnlea azɛlɛ ne boɛ, bɛbɔ ninyɛne mɔɔ wɔ zo la anwo bane na bɛbɔ ɛbɛla mɔɔ nee Bɔvolɛ ne bodane le ko la. Bɛlɛsiezie bɛ bɛamaa ɛbɛlabɔlɛ wɔ paladaese azɛlɛ ne azo.
Abɔdeɛ nwo edwɛkɛ ne mɔɔ wɔ Mɔlebɛbo la dwula kɛ: “Nyamenle nwunle kɛ debie biala mɔɔ yeyɛ la le kpalɛ kpole.” (Mɔlebɛbo 1:31) Nɔhalɛ nu, azɛlɛ ne sonle bolɛ la ati bɛnrɛzɛkye ye bɔkɔɔ. Yɛ azɛlɛ ye kenlebie mɔɔ wɔ yɛ Bɔvolɛ ne mɔɔ lɛ ɛlɔlɛ, Gyihova Nyamenle, asa nu la kyekye yɛ rɛle. Yebɔ ɛwɔkɛ kɛ: “Tenlenema bava azɛlɛ ne ayɛ bɛ ɛdeɛ, na bɛadɛnla zolɛ dahuu.” (Edwɛndolɛ 37:29) Ɔrɛla ye kɛ ɛbaboka “tenlenema” mɔɔ bavɛlɛ azɛlɛ ye kɛ bɛ sua nu dahuu la anwo.
