SHin Yesuusi ayyaanaaban etassi so asa mala gidida, eta siiqiyaanne etawu qoppiyaageeta immanawu qaalaa geliis.

Hegee nuuni danddayido keenan ubbatoo shiiqanaadan denttettees.

Hegaa gishshawu, shiiquwan nuuni Yihoowa cenggurssaa siyoosinne i nuna siiquwan kaalettiyoogaa akeekoos. Yaatiyoogan, nuuni akko shiiqoos.

¹⁴ Yesuusi, “Naa77u urai woi heezzu urai ta sunttan shiiqiyoosan, taani hegan eta gidduwan de7ais” yaagiis. (Maa. 18:20) Yesuusi giidobay nu shiiquwawukka hanees. Gubaaˈiyawu huuphe gidida Kiristtoosi Xoossaa asaa gubaaˈiyaa ‘gidduwan hemettees.’ (Ajj. 1:20–2:1) Yihoowaynne Yesuusi gubaaˈe shiiquwan nuna keehi minttettoosona.

(Isi. 43:23) Yaatiyo gishshawu, nuuni ayyo azazettiyo wode, a ay keena siiqiyaakkonne a haaruwawu ay keena exatiyaakko bessoos. (Roo. 6:17) Leemisuwawu, nuna ootissiyaagee nuuni gubaaˈe shiiquwaa shiiqiyoogaa aggidi oosuwaa oottanaadan giddana danddayees.
