Aku namu, nsenga ibaadi ayituusha bya kudya bibungi bwa’shi kifuko kya Abele kikale na muuwa. Na, takubaadi malwa su ngamune akwate nyema, sunga ntoonyi na mishipa; myengye, bishiba bya meema, myela, na tulunga; sunga mayilu, makumbi, nguba, mweshi, na nyenyenyi nya. Abele kooso kwasa eyiso, amono bishinkamiisho bya kifulo, binangu, na kalolo kakata ka Yehowa Efile Mukulu, yawa baadi  mupangye bintu byooso. (Badika Beena-Looma 1:20.) Kushii mpaka, kunangusheena pa byabya bintu kubaadi kunyingishe lukumiino lwa Abele.

¹³ Mu binyibinyi Abele bakimbile nsaa ya kunangusheena pabitale myanda ya mu kikudi. Banda kumupwandjikisha nsaa yakwete kulama mikooko.

Ku bipangwa byooso by’Efile Mukulu, mikooko ayimweka bu ayitungaa kukalwila ngofu, i nka bu yabadi bapangye na lukalo lwa’shi, muntu eyikunkushe na kwiyikalwila. Abele bamwene’shi e na lukalo lwa bukunkushi, kukalwilwa, na bukwashi bwa muntu sha binangu na bukome bukile bantu booso su?

Yehowa baadi mwakule dingi’shi Eeva akapete mitanyo p’ayimita na pa kutanda. Nsaa ibaabadi batande bena baaye, Abele bamwene dingi kalolo kulombana kwa, buno butemuki. Yehowa baadi mutemukye’shi Eeva akekala na lukalo lukishekishe lwa’shi mulume aaye amufule na kumukalwila, na’shi Adame namu akamumunu. Abele baadi mwimwene bibaadi abikitshika pankatshi na nyin’aaye na nshaye. Mu mwanda ooso wawa, Abele baadi amono eyi dya Yehowa dibalombananga binyibinyi. Nyi bwakinyi, Abele baadi na tubingilo twi bungi twa kukumiina mu mulayilo utale ‘kekulu,’ akakalumbuula dingi efuku myanda ibubi ibaadi ibangye mu Edene.​—Kib. 3:15-19.

16, 17. Nkinyi kibaadi Abele mulongyele ku kileshesho kya ba kerubime ba Yehowa?

Pa babadi babingye  Adame na Eeva mu lupango lwa Edene, Yehowa baadi mwate mpàngo ya’shi abo sunga twikulu twabo t’abakumanga kwimutwela dingi. Bwa kulama ku kitwelelo, Yehowa nkutuula ba kerubime (mikeyilu ya mulongo ukamine) na lupete lwi na ndjimi ya kaalo lubaadi alwifunyu.​—Badika Kibangilo 3:24.

¹⁷ Banda kunangusheena pabaadi Abele kwete kumona ba kerubime pabaadi kii nsongwalume. Bu bibaabadi na mbidi ya bu bantu, Abele baadi amono bibaabadi na bukome bwi bungi. Na lwalwa “lupete,” lukwete kutemba na kwifunya nsaa yooso, lubaadi alumupa dingi moo. Bu bibaadi Abele kwete kwenda na kukula, baadi mumone dingi efuku’shi baaba ba kerubime abamwene’shi mudimo ubabadi bebape kwi Yehowa ubebatondo na abo nkukatuka mbalo ibabadi bebatuule su? Nya. Bufuku na kanya, kipwa na kipwa, bipwa makumi, byabya bipangwa bi na binangu na bukome bibaadi nka pa mudimo ubaabadi bebatuule. Nka paapa Abele nkumona’shi Yehowa Efile Mukulu e na bafubi balulame na ba kishima. Mu bano ba kerubime, Abele baadi mulombeene kumona bi lulamato na kukookyela kwa Yehowa byashii mumone mu kifuko kyabo. Kushii mpaka, kino kileshesho kya ba mikeeyilu kibaadi kinyingishe lukumiino lwaye.

18. Mbintu kinyi bilombeene kwitukwasha bwa kunyingisha lukumiino lwetu lelo uno?

Kileshesho kyaye akitulongyesha myanda ibungi lelo uno, ta mbyobyo su? Bikishekishe ba nsongwa mbalombeene kunyingishibwa p’abo kuuka’shi mbalombeene kwikala na lukumiino lwi bukopo mwi Yehowa Efile Mukulu, sunga kwekala’shi mu kifuko kyabo ta mwi muntu sunga ngumune e na kileshesho kibuwa. Buwa bwa bipangwa, Bible na bileshesho bi buwa bya lukumiino bitwifunyishe abitupa bishinkamiisho bya binyibinyi bya kunyingisha lukumiino lwetu lelo uno.

19. Mu kwenda kwa mafuku mmwanda kinyi ukata wa binyibinyi ubaadi Abele mupushe kalolo?

Yehowa nkwaluula! Atubadika bino: “Yehowa batambwile Abele na mulambu wê na kusepeela.” (Kib. 4:4, EEM) Mu Bible ta mbaleeshe bibaadi Yehowa mukite bwa kusepeela nya.

Nka bu bantu be bungi lelo uno, Kayina baadi anangusheena’shi kii na muulo nka penda kuleesha’shi we mulamate kwi Efile Mukulu.
