[Balesa babo] balete inte shabo ukuti bapeelwe insambu, no kuleka tuumfwe no kwasuka, atuti, Ca cine cine.” (Esaya 43:9) Yehova asonsomba inko sha mwi sonde ukucite cintu cimo icayafya. Na kuba, atila: ‘Lekeni balesa benu bashinine ukuti ni balesa pa kusobela ifya ku ntanshi ukwabulo kupusa.’ Apo ni Lesa wa cine eka fye e wingasesema ukwabulo kupusa, ubu bwesho bukasokolola bonse abafutika.

Lelo nomba yafike nshita ya kuti Yehova ashinine Bulesa bwakwe.

Ukutula pali lelo nine wine, tapali na wa kupokolola mu kuboko kwandi; ndecita, kabili nani uwingacitulula [ukuboko kwandi]?”—Esaya 43:10-13.

¹² Pa kwankula kuli ifi fyebo fya kwa Yehova, imbokoshi ya mu cilye yaisulamo paa na cinkukwe wa nte sha buseko. Ubunte shapeela buntu bwaumfwika kabili ubushingatwishikwa. Kwati fye ni Yoshua, ishi nte shapeela ubunte bwa kuti ‘fyonse ifyo Yehova asosa fyalimoneka, takwashala cintu nangu cimo.’ (Yoshua 23:14) Abantu ba kwa Yehova bacili baleibukisha amashiwi ya kwa Esaya, Yeremia, Esekiele, na ya bakasesema bambi abo, basobele icintu cimo cine, ica kusendwa kwa baYuda muli bunkole no kulubulwa kwabo ukwa cipesha amano kufuma muli bunkole.

Ukupusanako na tulesa utusenshi, Yehova fye eka e ushabumbilwe; wene eka fye e Lesa wa cine.a E co, abantu abainikwa ishina lya kwa Yehova balikwata ishuko lyaibela kabili ilya kucincimusha ilya kwebako inkulo shileisa na bantu bambi abepusha pa lwa kwa Yehova na pa lwa milimo yakwe iya kusungusha. (Amalumbo 78:5-7) E fyo caba na ku Nte sha kwa Yehova isha muno nshiku, shalikwata ishuko lya kubilisha ishina lya kwa Yehova mwi sonde lyonse. Muli ba 1920 Abasambi ba Baibolo batendeke ukwiluka ubupilibulo bwashika ubwe shina lya kwa Lesa, Yehova.

Tulesa tonse utwa mu Egupti twalifililwe ukucingilila Egupti nangu kucilikila abena Israele ukuya. (Ukufuma 12:12) Ifyo fine e fyo cikaba na kuli Babele uwa maka, uo itauni lyakwe lyabamo amatempele nangu fye 50 ayakuulilwa tulesa twa bufi, akafilwa ukulesha ukuboko kwa Wa maka yonse ilyo inshita ikesa iya kulubula abantu bakwe.
