Ha gujo oosoy deˈuwaa demmanau koshshiyaaba gidana xayikkonne, Kawotettaara gayttidaagan keehi koshshees.

3. (a) Kawotettaabaa oottanau issi issibaa aggibayiyoogan waati goˈettiyoo? (b) Nuuni qoppana koshshiyo oyshati awugeetee?

³ Kawotettaabaa ha wodiyan awudeegaappenne aaruwan minnidi oottana koshshees. Daroti bantta dosan Yihoowau yarshshiyoogaa beˈiyoogee keehippe ufayssiyaaba! (Mazamure 54:6 nabbaba.) Nuuni Xoossaa Kawotettay yiyo wodiyaa naagiiddi hegaadan kehatettan immiyoogee nuna keehi ufayssees. (Zaa. 16:15; Oos. 20:35) SHin, nuuni ubbay nuna loyttidi qorana koshshees.

Hegaappe amaridaagee etappe koyettiyaaba; qassi haray eti bantta dosan yarshshiyooba. (Wog. 23:37, 38) Xuuggiyo yarshshuwaa asay Yihoowayyo dosan coo immiyoobaa oottidi yarshshana danddayees. Solomona wode beeta maqidasee anjjettiyo wode immidobay imotaa immiyoogau keehi loˈˈo leemiso.—2 Odiya 7:4-6.

⁵ Yihooway ubba asay issi likke imotaa immana danddayennaagaa eriyo gishshau, ubbay ba wolqqa keenaa immanaadan siiquwan azaziis. Yihoowa higgee mehiyaa yarshshidi a suuttaa gussanaadan azazees. He yarshshoy Yesuusa baggaara “yaana lo77obaa eesho.” (Ibr. 10:1-4) SHin, Yihooway ubba asay he higgiyaa issi lagge polanaadan azazibeenna. Leemisuwau, mehiyaa yarshshana  danddayenna uri haraphiyaa yarshshikko, Xoossay a yarshshuwaa ekkees. Hegaa gishshau, hiyyeesa urikka ufayttiiddi Yihoowau yarshshana danddayees. (Wog. 1:3, 10, 14; 5:7) Yarshshiyo mehee dumma dumma gidana danddayikkonne, ba dosan yarshshiya uraappe koyettiya naaˈˈubay deˈees.

6. Issi uri yarshshiyo wode appe koyettiyaabay aybee, qassi he koyettiyaabaa poliyoogee ay keena koshshiyaabee?

⁶ Koyruwan, issi uri bau deˈiyaabaappe murutaa immana koshshees. Yihooway Israaˈeela asay immiyoobay ‘ekettana’ mala tilla gidana koshshiyoogaa odiis. (Wog. 22:18-20) Yarshshiyo mehee tilla gidana xayikko, Yihooway yarshshuwaa ekkenna. Naaˈˈanttuwan, yarshshuwaa yarshshiya uri Higgiyan odettidaagaadan geeshsha gidana bessees. Issi uri geeshsha gidana xayikko, Yihoowaara sigettanau ba dosan shiishshiyo yarshshuwaappe kase nagaraa yarshshuwaa woy naaquwaa yarshshuwaa shiishshana koshshees. (Wog. 5:5, 6, 15) Hegee keehi koshshiyaaba. Yihooway issi uri tuna gidi uttidi dosan shiishshiyo yarshshuwaa gujjin, hara issippetettaa yarshshuwaa miikko, Xoossaa asaappe shaahettidi hayqqanaadan azaziis. (Wog. 7:20, 21) Hara baggaara qassi, issi uri geeshsha gidikko qassi a yarshshoy muruta gidikko, he uri ufayttees.—1 Hanidabaa Odiya 29:9 nabbaba.

⁷ Ha wodiyankka daroti Yihoowau minnidi haggaazoosona; qassi Yihooway hegan ufayttees. Nu ishantta maaddanau minnidi oottiyoogeekka nuna ufayssees. Kawotettaa Addaraashaa keexxiyoonne meretay gattiyo daafaban qohettidaageeta maaddiyo oosuwaa oottiya issi ishay hegaadan oottiyoogan keehi ufayttiyoogaa yootiis. “Ishantti ooratta keexettida Kawotettaa Addaraashaa giddon eqqidi woy meretay daafabaa gatti simmin eta maaddiyo wode eti ufayttiyoogaanne nashshiyoogaa” beˈiyo wode, oottido ubbaban i ufayttiyoogaa yootiis.

⁸ Ha wodiyan deˈiya Yihoowa dirijjitee Yihoowa oosuwaa oottanau miikketiyaabaa ubbatoo koyees. CHarles Tez Raasili 1904n, “Asi ubbi ba wodiyaa, ba wolqqaa, ba miishshaanne hegaa malabaa goˈettanau Goday bana sunttidabadan qoppana koshshees; qassi hegeetun bau danddayettida  ubban Godaa bonchanau koyana bessees” yaagidi xaafiis. Yihoowau immiyoogee daro anjjuwaa demissiyaaba gidikkonne, yaatanau nuuni issi issibaa aggibayana koshshees. (2 Sam. 24:21-24) Nuuyyo deˈiyaabaa kaseegaappe loytti goˈettana danddayiyoo?

⁹ Nu wodiyaa.

Issi gallassan 24 saate xallay deˈees. Yesuusi nu wodiyaa loytti goˈettanau maaddiya maaraa yootiis. Yesuusi ba erissiyo ashkkarati sabbakanaadan kiittido wode, ‘ogiyan oonanne sarotennaadan’ etau yootiis. (Luq. 10:2-4) Yesuusi eta hegaadan azazidoy aybissee? Geeshsha Maxaafaa eranchay issoy, “Arshsho bagga biittatun asay nuugaadan guuttaa ziggidi sarotenna; darotoo qoommidi, darotoo ziggidi, ubba qassi darotoo saˈan gufannidi sarotees. Hagee ubbay daro wode wurssiyaaba” yaagiis. Yesuusi bana kaalliyaageeti asa bonchennaadan yootibeenna. I eti banttau deˈiya wodee guutta gidiyoogaanne eti hegaa keehi koshshiyaabau loytti goˈettana bessiyoogaa akeekanaadan maaddiis. (Efi. 5:16) Kawotettaara gayttidabaa oottanau daro wodiyaa demmana mala nuuni he maaraa kaallana danddayiyoo?

10, 11. (a) Nuuni alame yuusho oosuwau immiyo miishshay oosuwan peˈiyo issi issi ogeti awugeetee? (b) Koyro Qoronttoosa 16:1, 2⁠n deˈiya nuna maaddana danddayiya maaray aybee?

12, 13. Issoti issoti bantta wolqqaanne eraa kawotettaabau goˈettennaadan diggana danddayiyaabay aybee, shin eta Yihooway waati maaddii?

¹² Nu wolqqaanne nu eraa. Kawotettaara gayttidabau nuuni nu wolqqaanne nu eraa goˈettiyo wode Yihooway nuna maaddees. I nuuni daafuriyo wode nuna maaddanau qaalaa geliis. (Isi. 40:29-31) Nuuni he oosuwan maaddanau koshshiyaagaa keena eray nuussi baynnabadan qoppiyoo? Nuuppe qaraa dariya harati deˈiyaabadan qoppiyoo? Yihooway Baxaaliˈeelassinne Oholiˈyaabassi eraa gujjidoogaadan, nuussikka gujjana danddayiyoogaa hassaya.—Kes. 31:1-6; ha huuphe yohuwaa doomettan deˈiya misiliyaa xeella.

¹³ Yihooway nuuni nuussi danddayettida ubbabaa immanaadaaninne xibennaadan minttettees. (Lee. 3:27) Beetamaqidasee zaarettidi keexettiyo wode, Yerusalaamen  deˈiya Ayhudati oosuwaabaa wotti denttidi qoppanaadan Yihooway etau yootiis. (Hag. 1:2-5) Eta qofay shaahettiis; qassi eti bantta deˈuwan Yihoowa oosuwaa kaseyibookkona. Nuuni kaseyiyoobay Yihooway kaseyiyoobaara maayettiyaakkonne qoppana koshshees. Nuuni nu deˈuwaabaa loytti qoppidi, Kawotettaabaa oosuwan kaseegaappe aaruwan waati maaddana danddayiyaakko halchana danddayiyoo?
