“KUDI am chidi chiwamp kamu kusej piswimp kudi Nzamb, natekil kal ruchingej ram mu [Yehova] Nsalejam, chakwel nikutwish kulejan midimu yend yawonsu.” (Kus. 73:28) Pinap nfund a Kuseng umekeshin anch umuchingejidin Nzamb. Ov, yom ik yamubachika chakwel alonda mwamu? Pamanay chisambu cha antu ayimp, nfund a Kuseng wova nayimp mu muchim wend. Ndiy winana anch: “Am nalamin muchim wam utokil chamwamu, novang makas mam ku kwiyingishil chamwamu.” (Kus. 73:2, 3, 13, 21) Pakwez, pandamay “mu chikumbu chitumbila cha Nzamb,” ndiy wikala ni mwikadil wamukwasha kukarumun yitongijok yend ni kulam urund wend ni Nzamb. (Kus. 73:16-18) Yom yashikena yamwinkisha muntu winou umwovila Nzamb wom dilejan dimwing dia usey nakash: Kwikal pakach pa antu a Nzamb, kwitiy chiyul, ni kuchisadil kudi kwa usey mulong wa kwikal mu urund wa piswimp ni Yehova.​—Kus. 73:24.

² Niyetu tusotin kwikal mu urund wa piswimp ni Nzamb wakin ni udia mwom. Chakwel tushikena ku urund winou, chidi cha usey kulikidil chiyul chend ap kukand kwend kutuumba chakwel twikala antu amusangareshina! Pasak, nich ranaken Nzamb wayinkisha antu ni michid mitapu ya kwakul ku kukand kwend. Rusangu rilejena mutapu wakulau arifundin mu Bibil “mulong wa kutulej etu” ni “mulong wa kutubabesh nich etu. Mulong etu tudi piswimp ni disudiel dia mangand.” (Rom 15:4; 1 Kor. 10:11) Kushinshikin nawamp jinsangu jinej kukez kusal anch twikala nich njingunin piur pa untu wa Yehova ni kutulej mutapu tukutwisha kutaninamu mu kutuumb kwend.

3. Mu Isay 64:8 ni mu Jeremiy 18:1-6, ov, mutapu ik umekeshinau ulabu wa Yehova padi antu? (Tal chipich chidia kwinsambishil.)

³ Pisambinay pa ulabu wa Yehova piur pa antu ni michid mu mutapu umwing wamushena, Isay 64:7 walejana anch: “[Yehova], udi Tatukwetu. Etu tudi mudi kam, ey udi mudi muumb wetu. Ey watutanga etu awonsu.” Muumb ukwet ulabu wawonsu wa kuumb kam chakwel kikala mutapu wa nnung yisotinay kusal. Kam kakutwishap kusal chikasotina. Chidi chilik chimwing nich muntu ni Nzamb. Muntu kakutwishap kupwitijan ni Nzamb mudi mwakad kutwishang kam kusal mwamu mu makas ma muntu ukaumbila.​—Tang Jeremiy 18:1-6.

4. Ov, Nzamb waumba antu ap divu mudi mwasotay? Rumburil.

⁴ Yehova wamekesha kudi Isarel wa pasak ukaliweny wend wa kusal mutapu ukatay muumb kusal nich kam. Pakwez, kudi kushalijan pa chinech. Muumb ukutwish kusal manung ma mitapu yawonsu yikutwishay kusal nich chikunku cha kam. Ov, Yehova waumba antu ap divu mudi mwasotay, ni kusal anch antu amwing ikala awamp ni akwau ayimp? Bibil wakwil anch bwat. Yehova wayinkisha antu chipan chimwing cha usey nakash​—chipan cha want ipau. Ndiy kakatap kusadil ulabu wend wa ukaleng pakad kutongin pa chipan chend. Antu afanyidin kutond chakwel ayiumba kudi Sakatang, Yehova.​—Tang Jeremiy 18:7-10.

5. Anch antu alik chakwel ayiuumba kudi Yehova, ov, mutapu ik ukatay kusadil ulabu wend padi awiy?

⁵ Ov, chidi nchik anch antu alikin nich chibud kuyiumb kudi Muumb Mujim? Ov, mutapu ik ukatay kusadil ulabu wend wa winzamb? Tongin bil pa mutapu ukutwisha kwikal kam anch muumb kawanyishinap mudimu wend. Mulong wak, muumb ukutwish kusal nnung ya mutapu windjing ap kuyidjibul kwau! Chawiy lel, yisu yivud anch kam kawapinap, muumb ndiy ukwetinga mulong. Chad chidap mwamu ku mutambu wa Muumb wetu. (Kuv. 32:4) Anch muntu kakatap kuchingejin chakwel amuumba kudi Yehova, uyimp uding kusu kudi muntu winou. Yehova ukat kusadil ulabu wend wa muumb padi antu kusutil ku kutenchik mutapu wa kushakam nau kulondwish nich kwakul kwau pakatay kuyiumb. Antu akata kwitiyij kuyiumb akat kuyiumb nawamp. Chawiy chalonday Paul kudi in Kristu azizidilau many; anch ayiuumba chakwel ikala ‘chom chimwing cha kusadil mudimu wa katumb,’ ap, “etu ovilay riy.” Chikwau kand, antu alikina kumuziyil ni akweta chibud akat kushiken ku kwikal mudi “antu ovilay ujim [adia] piswimp ni kusheshik.”​—Rom 9:19-23.

6, 7. Mutapu ik ushalijadinay Mwant David ni Mwant Saul mu kutesh chiyul cha Yehova?

 ⁶ Mutapu umwing ukatay Yehova kuyiumb antu udi kusutil ku chiyul ap ku kuyikand. Tukutwish kuman mutapu ik ukatay kusadil ulabu wend padi antu akatay kuumb kusutil ku kushinshikin pa ant aad a Isarel​—Saul nenday David. Penday Mwant David masandj nenday Batisheba, yisal yend yading ni yibudikin yiyimp kudi ndiy ni kudi antu akwau. Ap anch David wading mwant, Yehova kalikap kumukand. Nzamb wamutumina David muprofet Natan nich uruu ukash. (2 Sam. 12:1-12) Ov, David wakula nchik? Ndiy wova kuyip mu muchim wend ni wakarumuka. David wikala mudi nnung ya riy ra Nzamb.​—Tang 2 Samwel 12:13.

 ⁷ Chinyim ni Mwant wamutakela David, Saul, ndiy kitiyap chiyul. Yehova wamwinkisha Saul umutakel kusutil kudi muprofet Samwel anch: Ukujip yom yawonsu yikweta mwom ya mu musumb wa in Amalek. Saul walika kuziyil ku chijil cha Nzamb. Ndiy wamulama Agag, mwant wa musumb, ni amikoku, ni angomb amakwal. Mulong wak? Ndiy washa pamwing ap chikunku cha yom yiney mulong wasota  kwiletin amwinend katumb. (1 Sam. 15:1-3, 7-9, 12) Pamuyulau, Saul wafanyidina kulikidil chakwel awapisha muchim wend, ni kusal anch amuwapisha kudi amwinend Muumb Mujim. Pakwez, Saul walika chakwel amuumba. Ndiy wasambisha kulet mayingish piur pa yisal yend. Watonga anch yisal yend yadinga yiwapin mulong amikok ni angomb ela kuyisadil mulong wa kupan milambu, ni walika kutesh chiyul cha Samwel. Yehova wamulika Saul chakwel kangal ikala kand mwant, ni Saul kachirishap kand urund wend uwamp ni Nzamb wakin.​—Tang 1 Samwel 15:13-15, 20-23.

8. Ov, dilejan ik tukutwisha kwilejin pa mutapu wa kwakul kwa muchid wa in Isarel ku kuumb kwa Yehova?

⁸ Yehova kayinkishap kusu antu pakwez kand wayinkisha chisu chakwel anch itiya kuyiumb. Mu muvu wa 1513 K.C.C., ayikola an a Isarel mu uswik wa in Idjibit, ni andama mu manswik ma urund ni Nzamb. Watonda Isarel mudi muchid ni wawinkisha chisu chakwel anch awuumba, mu chikombol cha Muumb Mujimb. Pakwez, antu adandamena kusal uyimp kumes kwa Yehova, ni kwifukwil akish a michid yadinga yiyombilamu. Tupamp tuvud, Yehova wayituma aprofet end mulong wa kuyiyul, pakwez in Isarel kateshap. (Jer. 35:12-15) Mulong wa chibud chau, in Isarel ayikanda mu mutapu ukash. Mudi nnung yafanyidina kusheshik, michid dikum ya kwindum ya in Isarel ayikwata kudi in Asiriy ni michid yaad ya want ayikwata chilik chimwing kudi in Babilon. Ov, chinech chifanyidin kutulej dilejan dikash mud ik! Kuumb kwa Yehova kukez  kutukwash ching kusu anch twitiyij anch asala mwamu.

9, 10. Ov, mutapu ik wakulau in Ninive ku chiyul cha Nzamb?

⁹ Yehova wayinkisha kand in Asiriy adinga mu musumb ujim wa Ninive chisu cha kutesh chiyul chend. Ndiy wamuleja Yona, anch: “Tumbuk, uya ku musumb ujim wa Ninive, chakwel ukayileja rusangu rinakutuma kuyilej.” Ninive wafanyidina kusheshik.​—Yona 1:1, 2; 3:1-4.

¹⁰ Pakwez, palejanay Yona uruu wa riyind, “In Ninive itiyija dizu dia Nzamb. Awonsu ajila yakudia, adjala yinzany, kudiokal amakurump djat ni kud anikanch, mulong wa kumekesh anch komb akarumuk kal kudiokal ku yitil yau.” Mwant wau “wadiokala pa ditand, wadjola mukambu wend. Niyend wadjala yinzany, washakam mu maut.” In Ninive itiyija ku usu wasalay Yehova mulong wa kuyiumb ni akarumuka. Chawiy chasala anch Yehova alika kuyishesh.​—Yona 3:5-10.

11. Ov, ngikadil ik yamekeshay Yehova kudi in Isarel ni kudi in Ninive?

¹¹ Kwikal muchid watondau kwasalap anch in Isarel aburena kuyikand bwat. Chikwau kand, in Ninive kadingap mu manswik ma urund ni Nzamb. Pakwez, Yehova wapana uruu wa dirumburish kudi awiy ni wayovila kand riy pamekeshau anch aswapel kuyiumb mudi kam mu makas mend. Yilakej yiney yaad yilejen mu mutapu ukash mud ik anch Yehova Nzamb wetu udi “wakad kasolikany kudi muntu”!​—Kuv. 10:17.

12, 13. (a) Ov, mulong wak Nzamb ukat kuswimp rutong rend pantaliken ni antu asotina kuyiumb? (b) Piur pa Yehova, ov, chom ik chimekeshina ‘kuchirish muchim’ wend?

¹² Mutapu usotinay Nzamb kutuumb umekeshin anch udi wisikena ni uswapela kukarumuk. Chinech chamekana pasotay Yehova kuyishesh antu ni kupwa wakarumuna yitongijok yend mulong wa kukarumuk kwau. Bibil ulejen piur pa mwant wa kusambish wa in Isarel anch Yehova ‘wova ushon mulong wa kumutek Saul mu want.’ (1 Sam. 15:11) Pakarumukau in Ninive ni kulik yisal yau yiyimp, Bibil ulejen anch: “Chad ndiy wachirisha muchim wend, kayilejap kadimu mud mwalonday.”​—Yona 3:10.

¹³ Dizu dia Hebereu diakarumunau anch “wachirisha muchim wend” dikwet chitongijok cha kuswimp mwikadil ap chitongijok. Mwikadil wa Yehova pantaliken ni Saul wakarumuka kupwa kwa kumutek pa want ni wamulika. Kuswimp kwinoku kwadingap anch mulong Yehova wasala nayimp pa kumutond Saul, pakwez chidi mulong Saul waburena ritiy ni wikala mbwambol. Nzamb wakin wova ushon piur pa yayishikena in Ninive; chawiy lel, wakarumuna chitongijok chend pa yom yelay kuyisadil. Chidi chom chikasikeshena mudi ik pa kwijik anch Yehova Muumb wetu wisiken ni uswapela kuswimp, mwin riy ni ranaken, usotin kuswimp mwikadil wend anch waman kukarumuk kukash kwa muntu wasala uyimp!

14. (a) Ov, mutapu ik ukatay Yehova kutuumb nlel unou? (b) Mutapu ik tufanyidina kwakul ku kuumb kwa Nzamb?

¹⁴ Cha kusambish, Yehova utuumbin nlel unou kusutil ku Dizu diend Bibil, ni ku dirijek diend. (2 Tim. 3:16, 17) Ov, tufanyidin kwitiy ku chiyul ap ku kukand kwawonsu tutambwila kusutil ku yom yiney? Chikalap nchik uvud wa mivu kudiosh twatambwila dibatish ap kutwatambwila yisend yivud ya mudimu, tufanyidin kudandamen kutesh ku chiyul cha Yehova, kumulikidil atusala chakwel twikala chom cha kusadil mudimu wa katumb.

 ¹⁵ Kukand kumwing kukutwish kutushiken mudi malejan ap kutudiosh mwi njil yiyimp. Pakwez, yisu yikwau, tukutwish kwikal nich kuswir kwa kutukand mulong twasala uyimp. Kukand kwinoku kukutwish kutushikij ku kushadish yisend. Shinshikin chilakej cha Dennis * wasala mudi mukurump. Ndiy wasala uyimp mulong wa kuburen kukwat mupak uwamp piur pa mulong wa kwisak, ni ashikena ku kumupup mu ujindj. Ov, mutapu ik wiyovay Dennis uchuku wa dichuku dialejanau ku chikumangen anch ndiy kakezap kand kusal mudi mukurump? Ndiy ulejen anch: “Nova kuyip nakash, mulong mu mivu 30 yasuta, nadinga ni yisend yivud. Nasala mudi chibol wa rawonsu, nasala ku Betel, nadinga kashalapol nkwash ni kupwa nikala mukurump. Nasala kand diskur diam dia kusambish ku chitentam cha distrik. Kupwa, yawonsu yashadika kapamp kamwing. Nova usany ni kuyip, natonga kand anch nikezap kwikal kand ni ndond mu dirijek.”

¹⁶ Pakwez, Dennis wakarumuna mwikadil wend, kasalap kand uyimp wafanyidinay kwipuk kwinsambishil. Pakwez chom ik chamukwasha chakwel arisha nich yovil yiyimp? Ndiy urumburil anch: “Nitekina mupak wa kulam mwikadil wam wa muspiritu. Ni cha usey nakash chading ukwash unatambula kudiokal kudi akadivar in Kristu ni ku dikasikesh didiokila mu mikand yetu. Mutu wa mulong ulondina anch ‘Pouvez-vous de nouveau exercer des responsabilités?’ udia mu nimero wa Chinong cha Kalam cha Kafumpul 15, 2009 wading mudi mukand wanfundidinau amwinam mudi chakul ku malembil mam.

Pasuta mivu yimwing, ndiy ulejen anch, “Yehova wanyukisha kand chakwel nikala nich chisend cha kusal mudi kashalapol nkwash.”

17. Ov, kumwopat muntu kukutwish kwikal nich mudimu ik pa kukarumuk kwa mukayitil? Let chilakej.

¹⁷ Kumwopat muntu udi mutapu ukwau wa kukand kwa Yehova. Kukat kulam chikumangen ku chibachikin chiyimp ni kukutwish kukwash chakwel mukayitil akarumuka. (1 Kor. 5:6, 7, 11) Robert amwopata ni wasala mivu piswimp ni 16, pa chisu chinech anvaj ni anamakwend asadila mu mutapu ushinshamena umutakel wa Dizu dia Nzamb ulejena anch chifanyidinap kuta urund ni antu ayimp, ap kuyilangwish.

Pamwipulau piur pa chom chamubachika chakwel achirika kudi Yehova ni kudi Antwend kupwa kwa mivu yivud mwamu, ndiy wayakula anch mushiku wa dijuku diend wamushika ku muchim. Ni kulond anch: “Dijuku diam diading dikat kwintal pakemp kusu, mulong wa kwijik anch nilankin, urund winou ukemp wansangaresha nakash ni wasalap anch rusot ram ra urund kwikal diyingish dimbachikina ku kumuchirikin Nzamb.”

18. Ov, tukwikal kam ka mutapu ik mu makas ma Muumb Mujim?

Ov, tukumufan David anch Saul? Muumb Mujim udi Tatukwetu. Ndiy kakezap kuvuramen anch “ukat kumubabesh mwawonsu ukatilay, mudi tatuku umukatila mwanend.” Chawiy lel, ‘kangal wadiwul kubabesh kwa [Yehova], ap kangal waziy mulong wa malejan mend.’​—Jinsw. 3:11, 12.
