Nahan Mike man MaryAnne cii ve na kwaghwan er: De iyolyou i zungwe! Man ve kaa ka shami. Sha nena? Sha ci u izungwen ka gbenda u hange hange u dughun kwagh shon ken a̱ we kera. U dughun kwagh la ken ishima kera la una bee a haghelaa u ken ishima la. U den ishima you wer i̱ e̱r tom sha gbaaôndo la, aluer ka sha mkav man mfe u vough yô, ka a waseu sha u veren mbamhen ou sha mnenge u vough.

Icighanruamabera ngi a kwaghwan u una wase yô.

Iliam ia fatyô u wasen sha u dughun í kera. Er ônov nav mba pue cii kpe kera, kua shi akaa a kpilighyol a genegh kpishi kpaa e̱r kar yô, tertamen u tsuaa la Yobu lu kaa er: “M vôr a uma wam cii; me pase [Zwa Heberu, “lam sha”] kwagh u a  tserem yô, me yer ga; me ôr kwagh sha ishimavihin yam i tsung la.” (Yobu 1:2, 18, 19; 10:1) Yobu yange kera fatyô u kighir iyol na ga. Yange gba u una lam sha mi; yange gba u una “pase.” Sha gbenda ne môm, Orbuter u ngeren anumbe Shakespeare yange nger ken Macbeth er: “Tese ijungwen sha mkaan; ijungwen i i lamen ga la ia iv ken ishima poo nahan ía pav i̱.”

Nahan yô u ôron mbamlu ou mba ken ishima a “huror u mimi” u nana kegh ato zulee man nana lu a mhôônom ma zungwen la una va a mpever kpeghee kpee je.

Man aluer kau sar sar u ôron kwagh sha mlu u ishima you ga ye? Er Saulu man Yonatan ve kpe kera yô, Davidi yange dugh icam i mlia í kôron ken ishima tsung i yange ôr mbamzungu nav cii keregh yô. Ngeren u ken mzungu ne ken hemen yô yange hingir vegher u ngeren u takerada u Bibilo u Samuel u Sha Uhar. (2 Samuel 1:17-27; 2 Kroniku 35:25) Sha gbenda ne môm, mbagenev ka i hemba lun ve heghema u ngeren a nger mlu u ishima ve. Kwasecôghol ugen kaa er yange un nger mbamhen mba ken ishima na nahan ayange aa karen kpeghee yô un tôô kwagh u un nger la un ôr. Yange kwagh ne wase kpishi u nan un mpever ken ishima.

Aluer ka sha u lamen shin u ngeren kpaa, u pasen mbamhen ou ken igbaa la una waseu u dughun ijungwen you kera. Shi una fatyô u been a ihom. Kwase u lu icôghol yô kaa er: “Nomom man mo yange se ungwa kwagh u mbagenev mba yange ve pav ivaa shighe u wan saa ve yô, man se soo ser imba kwagh la i er se ga. Nahan hanma shighe u asema aa vihi se keregh, sea soo sha u se na orgen ibo yô, se lam sha kwagh shon.

Kwagh ugen u una wase u heghem ijungwen yô ka mliam. Bibilo i̱ kaa er, “shighe u mlia ngu.” (Orpasenkwagh 3:1, 4) Mimi je ku u or u doon se ishima ka u va a imba shighe ne. U haan mliam ashe ken mzungu la ka kwagh u hange hange sha gbenda u zuan a mpever u ken ishima.

Gumkwase ugen pase e̱r yange ijende na u ikooso-kooso yange wase un u tilen dông shighe u  yange ngô na kpe la. A umbur er: “Yange ijende yam á lu ikua a mo hanma shighe cii. Yange á vaa vea mo imôngo. Yange á lam vea mo. Yange m fatyô u pasen ishima yam gbaa gbaa, man kwagh la lum a iwasen kpishi je. Yange kunya kôrom mer m ngu vaan yum ga cii.” (Nenge Mbaromanu 12:15.) Nahan we kpaa kunya u de kôron we sha ci u ú ngu vaan yum ga. Er se nenge nahan, Bibilo i̱ iv a akav a nomso man kasev mba nanjighjigh—kua Yesu Kristu kpa kimi—mba yange ve vaa mliam gbaa gbaa ken mzungu aa kunya shio yô.—Genese 50:3; 2 Samuel 1:11, 12; Yohane 11:33, 35.

Ú kav wer sha ashighe a hiihii la yô u fatyô u kaven mlu u ishima you vough ga. Mliam maa fatyô u gban haan we nahan tsô a u we vanden wan ago a vaan shio. Kwasecôghol ugen yange va kav ér u za yamen akaa ken kasua la (kwagh u yange eren vea nom na keke yô) va un a mliam, hemban cii je yô shighe u, a̱ hungur un, una za uwegh sha u tôôn ma kwagh u yange nom na a soo kpishi yum la yô. Wa ishima aa iyolyou. Man de henen wer gba u ú kôr mliam mara u yange má u haan ga. Umbur, ka kwagh u gbaaôndo shi ka kwagh u á lu keng sha shighe u zungwen yô.

Er i vande ôron ken jime nahan, mbagenev ka ve na ibo ayol ave shighe u or u doon ve ishima ka nana saa ku kera yô. Kwagh ne una wase u kaven zege mzungu u orjighjigh Yakob shighe u yange i e̱r sha u á na jighjigh er wan na Yosev kpe sha ikev i “ma inyamikume” la. Ka Yakob iyol na yange tindi Yosev er a̱ za nenge e̱r anngôôv nav ve lu ye. Nahan yange ishima i Yakob i na un ibo kpee je, lu henen akaa anza e̱r ‘Er nan yange m tindi Yosev tswenee? Er nan yange m tindi un hen haregh u á mgbough a inyamikume yum nahana?’—Genese 37:33-35.

Alaghga u hen wer m-weikyo ga wou la ngu môm ken akaa a a ne ku ú or u doon we ishima yô. U kaven wer imba ibo ne—a̱ lu sha mimi shin a̱ lu di ken mhen wou tseegh kpaa—ka mlu u sha gbaaôndo shighe u zungwen la una fatyô u wasen we. Heen kpaa, de henen wer ka keng u we kighir mbamhen mban ken ishima you ga. U lamen sha kwagh u ibo i ken ishima you la una fatyô u nan we mpever kpishi je.

Nahan cii kpaa, kav, wer aluer orgenegh na̱na̱ doo se ishima nan nan je kpaa, se fatyô u lun aa  tahav sha uma u nan ga, shi se fatyô u yangen “shighe man aikor” u van sha mba ve doo se ishima mbara ga. (Orpasenkwagh 9:11) Heela tseegh ga, akperan nga ga mbamhen ou yange lu mbabov ga. Ikav i tesen, aluer u za nenge a ortwer sha shighe ga nahan, ngura tese er ú wa ken ishima wer or u doon we ishima la na̱na̱ gba angev shi na̱na̱ kpee? Mayange ga cii! Nahan yô mimi je ú ngu a ibo sha ku u ngura-a? Ei.

Ngô ugen yange hen sha e̱r una nenge sha ibo i nan iyol na e̱r wan na u kwase kpe sha aikôr u mato yô. A pase er: “Yange m na iyol yam ibo e̱r yange m tindi un ken won yô. Kpa yange m va kav ken hemen mer ka aa inja ga u henen nahan la. Yange kwaghbo môm lu ken ieren i tindin un vea ter na ga. Yange lu di aikôr u kpilighyol tsô.”

‘Kpa akaa nga kpishi a m tôm mer yange ma m ôr shin ma m e̱r yô,’ alaghga ú kaa nahan. Ka mimi, kpa ka an ken avese nana kaa er nan ngu ter u vough, ngô u vough, shin wan u voughloo? Bibilo i̱ umbur se er: “Se cii se mba nenge gbev sha akaa kpishi. Aluer or nana nôngo gbev sha kwaghôron ga yô, nan ngu or u vough je.” (Yakobu 3:2; Mbaromanu 5:12) Nahan lumun a kwagh u mimi ne wer we u ngu or u vough ga. U haren ishima sha mbamhen kposo kposo mba “aluer yange me á er nahan shin nahan” la una gema ma kwagh ga, kpa una gema una tule m-taver wou.

Aluer u ngu á atôakaa jim jim a a ne ve ú lu a jighjigh u nan wer ka ibo you, man ka di mbamhen ou tsô ga yô, nenge ase sha kwagh u a hembe lun u vesen ken akaa cii sha u karen aa ibo i ken ishima kera la—mde u asorabo u Aôndo. Bibilo i̱ taver se ishima er: “TERE, aluer Wea we aferakaa iko yô, ka an ma nan til sha, Tere? Kpa We U ngu a mde u asorabo.” (Upasalmi 130:3, 4) Ú fatyô u hiden ken jime za geman ma kwagh ga.

Ka shami, aluer Aôndo er ityendezwa er una deu a asorabo a ou a tse la kera yô, doo u we kpaa ú de iyol you a asorabo gaa?—Anzaakaa 28:13; 1 Yohane 1:9.

Alaghga ishimavihin you ne ka di kwagh u seer sha mnyoon u i nyoon we ken ishima la tsô. Or u ngeren akaa ugen yange kaa er: “Ka sha u kaven ishimavihin la—ka u yaren tom shami ga kpa ka u kaven e̱r i lugh ken ishima la—man una fatyô u wasen we u waren tahav mbu i̱ mbu nan mtim la ye.”

Shi á lu a iwasen kpaa sha u lamen sha kwagh u ishimavihin la shin u pasen orgenegh i̱. Nena? Ka sha u vihin ishima a iyol kôron tsaha shio la ga. Bibilo i̱ ta icin er u vihin ishima gbem la ka kwaghbo. (Anzaakaa 14:29, 30) Kpa alaghga u zua a msurshima sha u lamen shami a huror wou u lun a mkav. Man shi mbagenev ka̱v er u eren tom u taver iyol shighe u ishima i vihi ve la ka a wase u pever i̱.—Shi nenge Mbaefese 4:25, 26.

Er i lu aa inja u lun gbaa gbaa shi lamen sha mimi sha mlu u ishima you nahan kpaa, doo u á ta icin. Mkposo ngu zegenan je a u lamen sha ishimavihin you la man u haan i̱ sha mbagenev.

(Anzaakaa 18:21) Gbenda ugen u vesen ngu u nôngon a ijungwen, man ka ú je se nenge shami hegen ye.

Bibilo i̱ taver se ishima er: “TER ngu ikua a mba asema a vihin ve la, yem mba ve lu a ishima i zamber yô.” (Upasalmi 34:18) Een, u hemban cii je yô, mlu u dedoo a Aôndo una fatyô u wasen we sha u nôngon a ku u or u nan doou ishima la.  Nena?

Bibilo i̱ wa se kwagh er: “Haa akaa a zan we iyol cii sha TER, tsô Una taver we.” (Upasalmi 55:22) Aluer u lamen sha mlu u ishima you a huror wou u lun a mhôônom ma zungwen la una wase yô, ka nena je u haan akaa a zan we iyol ken ishima sha “Ter u A lu a mhôônom ma zungwen” la una waseu-we!—2 Mbakorinte 1:3.
