NKAWEHANI epomba enikhuruwela vamuruu va mulopwana owo. Mulopwana owo ti Yesu. Owo vano orina iyaakha 30. Nto mulopwana orina awe ti Yohani. Hiyo nihiixutta etthu-vale sa owo. Nyuwo munnuupuwela vaavo Maria vaaronwa awe omuxukurya mmusi awe Elizabeti, wira mwaana mmirimani mwa Elizabeti aahitupha mwaha wa ohakalala? Mwaana owo iira ohiyariwe aari Yohani. Masi vano exeeni Yohani ni Yesu anipaka aya?

Yohani ompwininhe niinano Yesu mmaasi a Muroo Yordani. Ola ti moota onibatiziwa awe mutthu. Wanipacerya, owo onipwinihiwa mmaasini, nto khiyakumihiwa vasyaa-tho. Okhala wira ela ti etthu yeeyo Yohani eniwiiriha awe atthu, owo oniitthaniwa Yohani Mbatiza. Masi Yohani ombatisenryeni Yesu?

Saana, Yohani aahipaka ela okhala wira Yesu aahirwa ni onvekela Yohani wira ombatize. Yohani onaabatiza atthu yaawo aniphavela wooniherya wira aariipiwa murima mwaha wa itthu sootakhala sivanry’aya. Masi Yesu ontoko ovara etthu yootakhala wira oriipiweke murima? Nnaari, Yesu khonavare, okhala wira owo Mwaana a mwaneene Muluku onikhuma wirimu. Siiso owo aahinvekela Yohani wira ombatize mwaha wa nthowa nikina. Nrowee noone tinivi naari nthowa naya.

Ohinatthi Yesu orwa wa Yohani va, owo aari kalapintero. Kalapintero mutthu yoowo onipaka itthu sa thaapwa, ntoko meesa ni ikhattera ni ikhukulu. Yosefe iyawe Maria aari kalapintero, nto owo aahimwiixuttiha Yesu wira okhalee-tho kalapintero. Masi Yehova khaamuruminhe Mwanawe mulaponi wira okhalee kalapintero. Owo ookhalana muteko a vameekh’aya wa owo wira ovare, nto okathi woophiya wira Yesu opacerye opaka ela. Siiso wira ooniherye wi vano owo ohoorwa wira opakee yotthuna ya Tiithi awe, Yesu oninvekela Yohani wira ombatize. Muluku onnihakalalela ela?

Aayo, owo onnihakalala, okhala wira, nuumala Yesu okhuma mmaasini, nsuu nookhuma wirimu nnihimya so: ‘Ola Mwanaka, yoowo onihakalalana aka.’ Nave-tho, vanikhala ntoko wira wirimu woohuleya ni epomba ela enimukhuruwela Yesu. Masi khahiyo epomba tthiri. Ela enoolikana paahi. Ola tthiri orii munepa wootteela a Muluku.

Vano Yesu ookhalana itthu sinceene sa wuupuwelela, siiso owo onirowa nipuro noomaaleleya khukhalaka mahiku 40. Vale Satana onnimurweela. Ikwaha tthaaru Satana oneererya wira omwiirihe Yesu opaka etthu yoovaanyihana ni malamulo a Muluku. Masi Yesu khonipaka ela.

Nuumala vo, Yesu onnitthika ni onnikumana ni alopwana akina yaawo anikhala atthareli awe oopacerya, aahiiso awiixutti. Masina a amosaa a yaawo ti Andreya, Pedru (iihaniwa-tho Simoni), Filipe ni Natanayeli (iihaniwa-tho Bartholomeyo). Yesu ni awiixutti ala a niinano annivenya arowaka edistritu ya oGalileya. MuGalileya awo aneemela oKanani muttetthe a Natanayeli. Vale Yesu onirowa vaniirani nuulupale na othela, nto onipaka mutikiniho awe oopacerya. Nyuwo munnisuwela tuuvi ola? Owo onitatuxa maasi okhala eviinyu.
