(Eze. 3:12) Inge kya kuba mwajinga nabo pa luno lwendo, umvwe mwaubile byepi pa kumona muzhi wa Yelusalema, muzhi wa katataka ko mwayilenga na kwikala? Nanchi inge mwajinga na bulanda pa kumona muzhi washalatu ke masala kabiji mwamena ne nsono nyi?

6. (a) Ñanyi bintu bitanshi byamwene Zekaliya mu kimwesho kya butanu na busatu? (Monai kipikichala kitanshi.) (b) Mambo ka bambili o baikejile na misombelo yapusana pusana?
6 Kimwesho kya butanu na busatu kyamwene Zekaliya kyakoseshe bingi lwitabilo lwabo. (Tangai Zekaliya 6:1-3.) Akilangulukai pa kino: Zekaliya wamwene makalaki ana a nkondo saka afuma “pakachi ka mitumba ibiji . . . ya mukuba.” Bambili bakokelenga ano makalaki bajinga na misombelo yapusana pusana. Kino kyakwashisheko kuyuka mwapusenejile baendeshenga ano makalaki. Zekaliya waipwizhe’mba: “Bano bo bañanyi?” (Zeka. 6:4) Ne atweba twafwainwa kwibayuka mambo kino kimwesho kyanema bingi kwi atweba.
Yehoba ne luno utuma bamalaika kuya na kuzhikijila ne kukosesha bantu banji
7, 8. (a) Mitumba ibiji imenako ka? (b) Mambo ka ino mitumba o yaikejile ya mukuba?

Mutumba umo wimenako bumfumu bwa Yehoba bwa myaka ne myaka bwa pa bilengwa byonse. Mutumba mukwabo wimenako Bufumu bwa Bumesiasa buji mu maboko a kwa Yesu. (Da. 2:35, 45) Kufumatu kimye Yesu kyo bamubikile pa bufumu mu kimye kya kibundo mu 1914, ino mitumba yonse ibiji ko ikiji kabiji ibena kwingila mwingilo wanema bingi mu kufikizha kyaswa muchima wa Lesa pano pa ntanda.

8 Mambo ka ino mitumba o yaikela ya mukuba? Byonkatu biji ngolode, mabwe a mukuba anema bingi. Kimye kyo bashimikilenga tente wa lusambakeno, Yehoba wakambizhe kuba’mba bakengijishe ano mabwe abembela. Kabiji kimye kyo bashimikilenga nzubo ya Lesa mu Yelusalema wibakambizhe kwingijisha ano mabwe. (9. Bañanyi baendeshenga makalaki, kabiji bebapele ñanyi mwingilo?
9 Pano twayai twisambe pa makalaki. Ano makalaki ne beendeshenga bemenako ka? Baendeshenga ano makalaki bajinga bamalaika, kabiji kyamweka ajinga mabumba apusana pusana a bamalaika. (Tangai Zekaliya 6:5-8.) Bafuminenga “ku meso a Nkambo wa ntanda yonse,” kabiji bebatumine kuya na kwingila mwingilo wanema bingi. Ñanyi mwingilo yenkawo? Makalaki ne beendeshenga bebatumine kuya na kwingijila ku mapunzha apusana pusana. Mwingilo wabo wajinga wa kuzhikijila bantu ba Yehoba ku balwanyi babo kikatakata ba “ku kyalo kya ku kabeta ka ku buyeke,” ko kuba’mba, Babilona. Yehoba wakebelenga bantu banji kuyuka’mba kechi bakekalapo bazha jibiji mu Babilona ne. Kino kyafwainwe kyatekeneshe bingi bantu bashimikilenga nzubo ya Lesa mu moba a kwa Zekaliya. Kechi bafwainwe kwakamwa’mba balwanyi babo bakebakanya kushimika ne.
10. Kimwesho kya kwa Zekaliya kya makalaki ne beendeshenga kyakonsha kukwasha byepi bantu ba Lesa lelo jino?
10 Byonka byo aubile mu moba a Zekaliya, Yehoba wa mabumba utuma bamalaika kuya na kuzhikijila ne kukosesha bantu banji. (Mala. 3:6; Hebe. 1:7, 14) Kufumatu kimye bena Isalela ba ku mupashi kyo bafumine mu buzha bwa kifwanyikizho mu Babilona Mukatampe mu 1919, balwanyi bakankalwa kukanya kukomenako kwa bupopweshi bwa kine. (Lum. 18:4) Na mambo a kuba tuji na bamalaika betuzhikijila, kechi twafwainwa kwakamwa’mba jibumba ja Yehoba jikabwela jibiji mu buzha ku bupopweshi bwa bubela ne. (Sala. 34:7) Pakuba, twashiinwa kuba’mba bantu ba Lesa bakatwajijila kumupopwela na lusekelo. Kimwesho kya kwa Zekaliya kitukwasha kushiinwa kuba’mba twazhikijilwa mu kimfutele kya mitumba ibiji.

(Ezi. 38:2, 10-12; Da. 11:40, 44, 45; Lum. 19:19) Bungauzhi bwa kwa Ezikyo bwalumbulula’mba mazhita a ano makafulumende aketulukuka byonkatu makumbi byo avweta pa kyalo, kabiji bakeya na bukaji bukatampe saka benda pa bambili. (Ezi. 38:15, 16) * Nanchi twafwainwa kwakamwa nyi? Ine, kwalepeshatu! Tuji na nzhita ikatampe. Pa kimye kya malwa akatampe, nzhita ya bamalaika ba Yehoba wa mabumba ikeya na kuzhikijila bantu ba Lesa ne kwipaya balwanyi ba bumfumu bwa Lesa. (2 Tesa. 1:7, 8) Jino juba jikawama bingi! Pano ñanyi ukatangijila nzhita ya Yehoba ya mwiulu?
MFUMU KABIJI ÑANGA BAMUWVWIKA MUNCHINYA KWI YEHOBA
12, 13. (a) Zekaliya bamwambijile kuba ka? (b) Twayuka byepi amba mwanamulume ye batela’mba Musele ye Yesu Kilishitu? Lumbululai.
12 Zekaliya wamwene bimwesho bitanu na bisatu bunke bwanji. Pano kyalondejilepo, waubile Zekaliya 6:9-12.) Zekaliya bamwambijile kutambula siliva ne ngolode kwi Heledai, Tobiyaja ne Yedaya, banabalume basatu babwelele kufuma ku Babilona, ne kwingijisha bino bya bupe kulenga “munchinya mukatampe.” (Zeka. 6:11, tubyambo twa munshi.) Nanchi Zekaliya bamwambijile kubika munchinya ku mutwe wa ndamakyalo Zelubabele wa mu mukoka wa Yuda kabiji wa mu kisemi kya kwa Davida nyi? Ine. Zekaliya wabikile munchinya ku mutwe wa kwa Yoshua, ñanga mwine mukatampe, kabiji bonse bamweneko bafwainwa bakuminye bingi.
kintu kyatundaikile boba bashimukulwilenga nzubo ya Lesa. (Tangai13 Nanchi ñanga mwine mukatampe aye Yoshua byo bamubikile munchinya kyamulengejile kwikala mfumu nyi? Ine, Yoshua kechi wafumine mu kisemi kya Davida kya bufumu ne. Onkao mambo, kechi wafikijilemo kwikala mfumu ne. Kuno kumuvwika munchinya bwajinga bungauzhi bwamwesheshenga’mba kukekala mfumu kabiji ñanga wa myaka ne myaka kulutwe. Ñanga Mwine Mukatampe ukekala mfumu bamutelele’mba Musele. Binembelo bimwesha’mba uno Musele wajinga Yesu Kilishitu.—Isa. 11:1; Mat. 2:23, tubyambo twa munshi.
14. Byo aji Mfumu kabiji Ñanga Mwine Mukatampe, Yesu ubena kuba ka?
14 Byo aji Mfumu kabiji Ñanga Mwine Mukatampe, Yesu ye ntangi wa nzhita ya Yehoba ya mwiulu. Onkao mambo, wingila na ngovu kuzhikijila jibumba ja bantu ba Lesa nangwa kya kuba bekala mu ntanda muji bantu bakanama.

(Lum. 17:12-14; 19:11, 14, 15) Pano bino, saka akyangye kuchibila bantu mambo, uno Musele uji na mwingilo mukwabo wanema bingi ye akengila.
UKASHIMIKA NZUBO YA LESA
15, 16. (a) Mwingilo wa kushimika nzubo ya Lesa wavwangilemo kubwezha ne kutokesha ka, kabiji ñanyi waingijile uno mwingilo? (b) Ñanyi bintu byawama bikoba Bukalama bwa Kilishitu bwa Myaka Kiumbi?
15 Kununga pa kwikala Mfumu kabiji Ñanga Mukatampe, Yesu bamupele ne mwingilo wa ‘kushimika nzubo ya Yehoba.’ (Tangai Zekaliya 6:13.) Mu moba a kupelako, mwingilo wa kwa Yesu wa kushimika nzubo ya Lesa wavwangilemo kufumya bapopweshi ba kine mu buzha mu Babilona Mukatampe ne kubwezha kipwilo kya bwina Kilishitu mu 1919. Kabiji watongwele “kalume wa kishinka kabiji wa maana” kuba’mba atangijilenga mwingilo mu bipango bya pano pa ntanda bya nzubo ya Lesa ya ku mupashi. (Mat. 24:45) Kabiji Yesu ubena kutokesha bantu ba Lesa ne kwibakwasha kupopwela Lesa mu jishinda jawama.—Mala. 3:1-3.
16 Mu kimye kya Bukalama bwa Myaka Kiumbi, Yesu ne ba 144,000 bo akalamanga nabo bakakwasha bantu ba kishinka kwikala balumbuluka. Uno mwingilo inge wapwa, bapopweshi ba Lesa ba kine bo bonka bakashala pano pa ntanda. Ntanda bakeitokesha kabiji pakekalangatu bapopweshi ba kine.

Vulukai kuba’mba Heledai, Tobiyaja ne Yedaya bapaine bintu byaingijishe Zekaliya pa kulenga munchinya. Uno munchinya waikele ke “kivuluko” nangwa’mba ‘kya kwibavulukilako’ pa bupe bo bapaine bwa kukwasha bupopweshi bwa kine. (Zeka. 6:14; tubyambo twa munshi.)
