(Aesaea 48:18) Taem Noah lukluk long creation, hem lukim olketa samting wea pruvim God hem stap and hem lanem olketa fasin bilong God. From datwan, Noah luksavve Jehovah nomoa garem bigfala paoa and hem nomoa trufala God. (Rome 1:20) Dastawe, Noah no biliv nomoa long God, bat hem garem strongfala faith long hem.

Maet Noah lane tu from grandadi bilong hem, Methuselah, and grandadi bilong Methuselah, Jared, wea gohed laef for 366 year bihaen Noah born. * (Luke 3:36, 37) Maet olketa hia and waef bilong olketa nao teachim Noah abaotem wei wea Jehovah creatim olketa man and hao hem laekem olketa for garem pikinini, fulimap earth, and worshipim hem. Luk olsem Noah lane tu abaotem hao Adam and Eve no obeyim Jehovah, and hem lukim nogud samting wea kamaot from datwan.

Olsem Abel and Enoch, hem tu garem faith hao wanfala “pikinini” bae smasem hed bilong datfala snek.—Jenesis 3:15.

⁷ Noah no barava minim gud promis bilong God wea stap long Jenesis 3:15. Bat hem luksavve datfala profesi givim hope for future.

(2 Cor. 2:11) Disfala world mekem pipol for laekem tumas raf fasin and duim nogud samting. And tu, hem mekhae long wei for duim nomoa wanem man seleva laekem.

Nomata taem hem olo, hem gohed studyim gud olketa scripture. (Daniel 9:1, 2) Daniel barava savve gud long Jehovah. Hem savve tu long evri samting wea Jehovah duim for olketa Israelite. Iumi savve long diswan bikos long toktok wea stap long Daniel 9:3-19, wea hem hambol prea wea Daniel talem from heart. Readim disfala prea and ting raonem gud. Tingim, ‘Wanem nao disfala prea teachim mi abaotem Daniel?’

12-14. (a) Wanem nao showimaot Daniel garem wisdom wea kam from God? (b) Wanem nao Jehovah duim for blessim wei wea Daniel no fraet and faithful?

¹² Hao nao stretfala savve abaotem God helpem Daniel? Hem no isi for wanfala faithful Jew for gohed worshipim God long Babylon. Olsem example, Jehovah talem disfala komand long olketa Jew: ‘Yufala mas wakahad fo helpem biktaon wea yufala go stap long hem.’ (Jeremaea 29:7) Bat, hem talem tu, olketa mas worshipim hem nomoa witim full heart. (Eksodas 34:14) Hao nao bae Daniel obeyim tufala komand hia? Wisdom bilong God helpem Daniel for minim principle for obeyim olketa wea rul, bat hem luksavve tu long taem wea hem mas obeyim Jehovah winim olketa man. Staka handred year bihaen, Jesus talem tu sem samting.—Luke 20:25.

¹³ Tingim samting wea Daniel duim taem olketa  givim law for prea nomoa long king for 30 day and no prea long eni nara god or man. (Readim Daniel 6:7-10.) Maet hem fit for mek excuse and sei: ‘Hem for 30 day nomoa.’ Bat Daniel no ting datfala law hem important winim wei for worshipim God. Daniel fit for prea haed long Jehovah. Bat hem savve staka pipol lukim hem prea evriday. So nomata datwan hem danger, hem gohed prea long ples wea pipol lukim bikos hem no laekem pipol for tingse hem stop nao for worshipim Jehovah.

¹⁴ Jehovah blessim wei wea Daniel no fraet and faithful. Hem duim wanfala mirakol and sevem Daniel from olketa lion. From datwan, pipol evriwea long Media and Persia lane abaotem Jehovah.—Daniel 6:25-27.

Hem barava important for prea evritaem, especially taem iumi kasem hard taem. Iumi savve garem faith hao Jehovah bae givim wisdom and strong wea iumi askem thru long prea.—Jas. 1:5.

16, 17. Hao nao gogo Job savve long Jehovah?

¹⁶ Hao nao gogo Job savve long Jehovah? Job no wanfala Israelite. Bat Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob olketa relative bilong hem and Jehovah teachim olketa abaotem hu nao hem and abaotem plan bilong hem for olketa man. Iumi no savve hao nao gogo Job lane abaotem olketa nambawan samting hia. (Job 23:12) Hem sei olsem abaotem Jehovah: ‘Mi herem wanem pipol talem abaotem yu.’ (Job 42:5) And tu, Jehovah seleva talem hao Job savve long truth abaotem Hem.—Job 42:7, 8.

¹⁷ Job lane abaotem Jehovah tu taem hem lukluk long creation. (Job 12:7-9, 13) Elihu and Jehovah storyim olketa samting abaotem creation for helpem Job luksavve olketa man smol tumas and God hem barava hae. (Job 37:14; 38:1-4) Toktok bilong Jehovah affectim Job and mekem hem hambol and sei long God: “Mi save dat yu garem evri paoa, an yu save duim nomoa evrisamting wea yu planem.” And tu, hem sei: “Mi sidaon insaet long  asis an long dast fo somaot dat mi sensim tingting blong mi.”—Job 42:2, 6.

18, 19. Hao nao Job showimaot hem savve gud long Jehovah?

¹⁸ Hao nao stretfala savve abaotem God helpem Job? Job barava minim gud olketa principle bilong God. Hem savve gud long Jehovah and datwan mekem hem laek for duim stret samting. Olsem example, Job savve hem no fit for sei hem lovem God sapos hem no kaen long narawan. (Job 6:14) Hem no tingse hem gud winim olketa narawan, bat hem treatim olketa olsem famili bilong hem nomata olketa rich or poor. Job sei: “Disfala sem God wea hemi mekem mi long bele blong mami blong mi, hemi tu hemi mekem olketa ya long bele blong mami blong olketa.” (Job 31:13-22) Nomata Job rich and garem paoa, hem no praod and ting nating long olketa narawan. Hem barava difren from pipol wea rich and garem paoa distaem.

¹⁹ Job no laek for worshipim eni difren samting. Hem no join insaed false worship or letem olketa material samting for kamap important winim Jehovah. Hem savve sapos hem duim datwan, hem rejectim “God hu hemi hae tumas.” (Readim Job 31:24-28.) And tu, Job tingim marit hem wanfala serious promis wea hasband and waef mekem. Hem promis long hemseleva, hem bae no lukluk long wei for laekem eni difren woman. (Job 31:1) Datwan interesting bikos long taem bilong Job, Jehovah letem man for garem winim wanfala waef. So sapos Job laekem nara waef hem savve tekem nomoa. * Bat, maet hem savve long arrangement bilong Jehovah for wanfala man maritim nomoa wanfala woman and maet Job chus for followim datwan. (Jenesis 2:18, 24) Samting olsem 1,600 year bihaen diswan, Jesus teachim datfala sem principle abaotem sex and marit.—Matt. 5:28; 19:4, 5.

20. Hao nao wei for savve gud long Jehovah and olketa standard bilong hem helpem iumi for mekem olketa wise disison?

²⁰ Hao nao iumi savve gohed garem faith olsem Job? Iumi need for savve gud long Jehovah and letem datwan affectim evri samting iumi duim. Olsem example, Bible sei Jehovah no laekem olketa wea raf tumas and wea “laek fo mekem trabol,” and iumi shud no associate witim olketa wea savve laea. (Readim Sams 11:5; 26:4.) So askem iuseleva: ‘Wanem nao tufala scripture hia showimaot abaotem tingting bilong Jehovah? Hao nao datwan shud affectim olketa disison bilong mi abaotem olketa samting olsem Internet, movie, buk, music, and olketa fren?’ Ansa bilong iu bae helpem iu for luksavve sapos iu savve gud long Jehovah. Iumi no laekem disfala nogud world for affectim iumi. So iumi mas ‘iusim evritaem tingting bilong iumi for luksavve long wanem hem stret and no stret,’ and tu, for luksavve long wanem hem wise and no wise.—Heb. 5:14; Eph. 5:15.

21. Wanem nao bae helpem iumi for savve gud long Jehovah?

²¹ From Noah, Daniel, and Job traem best for savve long Jehovah, datwan helpem olketa for “savegud long hem” mekem olketa duim wanem hem hapi long hem. Example bilong olketa showimaot hao sapos man duim samting wea Jehovah laekem bae hem garem gudfala laef. (Sams 1:1-3) So tingim diswan, ‘Waswe, mi savve gud long Jehovah olsem Noah, Daniel, and Job?’ Tru nao, distaem iumi lanem staka samting abaotem Jehovah winim olketa faithful man bifor bikos Jehovah givim iumi staka information abaotem hemseleva. (Provebs 4:18) So studyim gud Bible, ting raonem, and prea for holy spirit. Taem iu duim olsem, disfala nogud world bae no affectim iu. Bat bae iu garem wisdom bilong God and fren gud witim Dadi long heven.—Provebs 2:4-7.
