“Phimaana, nhihiyerere itampi yeettihaka ukumiinyu, nhiiwelele citthu cimpheelaaya irutthu cinyu cinhala ukhwa.”—Aroo. 6:12.
ITTHU INHALEEHU WIITTHUCA
Nhina ula mwahoola, ninaahala woona mananna ootthema ulolovaca ni owiikhikicera wiira nihipanke citthu cootakhala nattehattehiyaka.
1. Isiyani otheene cihu inlamuliyeehu waanana?
NYUUVA nhopaca upheela upanka itthu inonrusa Yehova? Wakhala wiira nhopaca wuupuwela commo, nhilolovace. Ibiibiliya ineera: “Inanna cinttehattehiyeenyu nyuuva, atthu akhwaawe phinttehattehiyaaya.” (1 Akor. 10:13)a Iyo maanaaya wiira, hataa nkhalanaka moopuwelelo oohiloka, nyuuva khanri veekha, hataa atthu akhwaawe anawaanana ayo moopuwelelwaayo. Nkaviheriyaka ni Yehova, nyuuva pooti utthema ayo moopuwelelwaayo.
2. Citthuni cinaattehatteha makristau akhwaawe ni anamasoma Ibiibiliya? (Nwehe ciicammo ilatarato.)
2 Ciicammo Ibiibiliya ineera: “Masi, khula ntthu nottehattehiya niitthu inoncivela ni impheelaawe.” (Tiya. 1:14) Awula, itthu inaattehatteha atthu akiina, pooti uhaattehatteha atthu akhwaawe. Wootakihera, makristau akhwaawe anawiicoona uttehattehiya upanka urupihana woohiloka; akhwaawe, anawiicoona uttehattehiya upheela urupihana alopwanaru awula athiyanaru. Atthu akhwaawe yoona ipornografiya khalayi, pooti wiicoona uttehattehiya uturuwela woona. Ciicammo atthu enci ahiile ulya citthu coohapala awula uhapaliya anawaanana ayo marikarikwaayo. Ala akhanlee marikariko vakaani makristau akhwaawe ni ciicammo atthu ansomihiya Ibiibiliya anaananaaya. Pooti ukhalaka wiira otheene wihu ukati nkhwaawe, nihopaca wiicoona khampa apostolu Paulu ceecoonilyaawe. Uyo hantikha co: “Kapheelaka upanka itthu yomaana, uhoolowaka inaawa itthu yoohinamaana.”—Aroo. 7:21.
Hiiva pooti uttehattehiya nipuro ni ukati nahaaweherereehu (Nwehe iparaagarafu 2)h
3. Manannani ntthu pacenre waanana moopuwelelo oohiloka cinlamuliyaawe wiiwehera?
3 Wakahala wiira nyuuva nnawaanana moopuwelelo oohiloka ikhumelo yo khalayi, pooti ukhalaka wiira nnaakhala oololovaca nlattu wowuupuwela wiira khannohala uhikhitiri-tho utthema. Pooti ukhalaka wiira nyuuva ciicammo nnawiicoona uhikhalana ifayita ni nnoopuwela wiira Yehova khunoncivela uswali winyu nlattu wo moopuwelelweenyu oohiloka. Masi nkupali wiira iyo khinakhala ikhweeli! Wiira niiweehe nlattuni, nhina ula mwahoola ninaahala waakhula makoho meeli: (1) Nlattuni nyuuva nneecooneenyu ukhala oololovaca ni nnoopuweleenyu wiira khanrina ifayita? (2) Manannani nnohaleenyu ukhitiri utthema ayo moopuwelelo oohilokaayo?
ISIYANI “SOTWANI” IMPHEELAAWE WIIRA NUUPUWELE
4. a) Isiyani Sotwani impheelaawe wiira nuupuwele nattehattehiyaka? b) Kontha isiyani ninlamuliyeehu ukupali wiira ninaahala ukhitiri unyema uttehattehiya?
4 Ukati unttehattehiyeehu, Sotwani nopheela wiira hiiva nuupuwele wiira khaninhala ukhitiri utthema. Yesu ahohimya wiira Sotwani anhala unittehatteha ukati waawiitthucihaawe attharyaawe ulompa, wiira: “Ni Sontte nnikavihere nahalaka vakaani upanka itthu yoohiloka, ni ciicammo nnopole mmatatani wa Ntakhali.” (Mat. 6:13) Uyo nwananyuuyo khankupali wiira apinaatamu khanhala uhiyerera umwiiwelela Yehova hataa yattehattehiyaka. (Jó 2:4, 5) Moone itthu inoonihera wiira ayo mopuwelelwaayo khaanakhala omaana. Sotwani mwaneennyaawe aheehiyerera atthemiyaka ni moopuwelelwaawe oohiloka ni uyo ahohiya ukhala ookhuluvelyaa uhoolo wa Yehova. Pooti ukhalaka wiira Sotwani noopuwela wiira, hiiva ciicammo ninaahala ukhala toko uyova, wiira nattehattehiyaka, ninaahala uhiya umwiiwelela Yehova. Ciicammo, Sotwani ahomananiha unttehatteha mwaana oohipahuwa a Nluku wiira apanke itthu yoohiloka! (Mat. 4:8, 9) Masi muupuwele co: Niireke khanirina ikuru wiira nittheme moopuwelelo oohiloka? Khweeliini, mena! Hiiva ninaakupali itthu apostolu Paulu yantikhilyaawe: “Nhina wo citthu cotheene, kihaana ikuru nlattu wo ule nokivaha ikuru.”—Afili. 4:13.
5. Isiyani inoonihera wiira Yehova naakhuluvela wiira ninaahala ukhitiri utthema moopuwelelo oohiloka?
5 Yehova ri oovirikana ni Sotwani nhina wo citthu cotheene. Uyo naanikhuluvela wiira hiiva ninaakhitiri utthema moopuwelelo oohiloka. Nincuwela cani iyo itthwiiyo? Uyo hohimya wiira atthu enci ookhuluvelyaa anaahala woopwaa mahuku omasakha moolupale. Muupuwele iyo itthwiiyo maanaaya isiyani. Yehova, ule hinootha, hohimya wiira nummeru naatthu enci ‘anaahala ukattha ikuwo caya ni utteeliha mphomeni Yomwaakhontwaa.’ Awula, atthu enci anaahala wooniya ukhala owaarya wa mithoni a Yehova ni anaahala uphwanya ukumi woohimala ituniya yonaanaano. (Apoka. 7:9, 13, 14) Iyo itthwiiyo inaathoonyera wiira Yehova khannoona ukhala atthu oololovaca, ahinkhitiri utthema moopuwelelo oohinamaana.
6-7. Isiyani-tho Sotwani impheelaawe wiira nuupuwele?
6 Sotwani kahi paasi nopheela wiira nikhale oololovaca, masi uyo ciicammo nopheela wiira hiiva niicoone uhikhalana ifayita ni nuupuwele wiira Yehova khunhala uncivela uswali wihu nlattu wo moopuwelelo oohiloka. Masi iyo ciicammo, ikhanlee itthu yowoothiya. Sotwani phikhanle oohifayita, kontha hokhottiya ni Yehova ni khanhala waakhela ukumi woohimala. (Upha. 3:15; Apoka. 20:10) Khweeliini, Sotwani nopheela wiira hiiva ciicammo nuupuwele wiira khanirina ifayita, venci-venci oopuwelaka wiira uyo hohaleela niweherero hiiva nirineehu noorwaa waakhela ukumi woohimala. Masi hiiva nihaana ifayita. Ibiibiliya inaanikhuluveliha wiira Yehova nopheela univaha ukumi woohimala, kahi unihukhumu. Uyo “khampheela wiira atthu atankanyiye, masi nopheela wiira attharuwe.”—2 Pet. 3:9.
7 Wakhalaka wiira ninawaanana moopuwelelo oohiloka, noopuwelaka wiira khanirina ikuru wiira nikhitiri utthema awula khanirina ifayita, ninhala wuupuwela khampa Sotwani cimpheelaawe. Wuupuwela commo, unaahala uniiriha ulolovaca ni uhiya unkhottela Sotwani.—1 Pet. 5:8, 9.
ISIYANI UPAHUWA WIHU UNHALAAYA UNIIRIHA WUUPUWELA?
8. Uhiya waaciya itthu yootakhala paahi, nuulumo “itampi” inaaca isiyani? (Isaalimu 51:5) (Nwehe “Nuulumo nootaphuleliya.”)
8 Unhiya Sotwani, isiyani-tho inhala uniiriha ukhala oololovaca awula wiicona uhikhalana ifayita? Upahuwa uhiyeriyeehu naasipaapeehu Atamu ni Hawa.b—Jó 14:4; nsome Isaalimu 51:5.c
9-10. a) Isiyani yaawiirannyenle Atamu ni Hawa ukati waakhanlyaaya atthu oopahuwa? (Nwehe ciicammo ilatarato.) b) Itampi niravihiyeehu, inniiriha wuupuwela isiyani?
9 Muupuwele itthu yaamwiirannyenle Atamu ni Hawa ucuwela waya wiira yahovara matampi. Ukati waahilyaaya umwiiwelela Yehova, ayo yaheepitha ni yahomananiha uttiyelela irutthwaaya. Yattonkacaka moopuwelelwaaya Atamu ni Hawa, ilivuru Perspicaz iheera: “Matampi yaavanryaaya yaahowiiriha uhihiyerera ukhala niiwasiwaasi, nimasukhuli, uhikhikiceryaa ni ihaaya.” Atamu ni Hawa yaakhala khampa yaahootthukeliya inupa yookawanihaciya ikwaartu cese, awula yaari ni ayo moopuwelelo macese oohilokaayo. Ayo pooti weettakacaaya ikwaartu cotheene, masi khayaarina mananna ookhumela vate. Ayo khayaarina mananna oohiya ukhala atthu oopahuwa.
10 Khweeliini, makhalelweehu ari oovirikana nimakhalelo a Atamu ni Hawa. Hiiva nihopoliya mmatampini ni nwo woopoliya nwo, khunaahela nhina Atamu ni Hawa. Phimaana, hiiva pooti wankupaliihu wiira matampiihu aholeveleliya ni ninaakhitiri ukhalana moopuwelelo omaana. (1 Akor. 6:11) Uhookhalaru commo, hiiva naatthu oopahuwa. Vano, nihocuwelela nlattuni hiiva ninkhaleehu niiwasiwaasi, nimasukhuli, oohikhikicieryaa ni ihaaya. Toko Ibiibiliya cineeraya wiira matampi ahaaphwanya atthu otheene, “hataa ciicammo ale ahivanre matampi toko yaavanraawe Atamu.” (Aroo. 5:14) Poti ukhalaka wiira iyo ittwiiyo inaaniripiha nrima, masi khaninlamuliya ukhala oololovaca awula wuupuwela wiira khanirina ifayiya. Hiiva pooti ukhitiri unyema moopuwelelo oohinamaana. Manannani?
Itampi yaahomwiiriha atamu ni Hawa wiicoona upanka itthu yootakhala, ukhala niiwasiwaasi, uhiicoona ukhikiceryaa ni wuuliha nru. (Nwehe iparaagarafu 9)
11. Nakhalaka oololovaca, isiyani nihinlamuliyeehu upanka ni nlattuni? (Arooma 6:12)
11 Nuupuwelaka wiira ‘Mi akinakuru’awula ‘Akinhala ukhitiri utthema itthu inkiiriha upanka citthu coohiloka’, unkhala khampa wiira upahuwa wihu phinoolumaca. Masi hiiva khaninlamuliya uhiyerera. Kontha isiyani? Kontha Ibiibiliya ineera wiira khaninlamuliya uhiyerera wiira “itampi yeettihere ukumiihu.” (Nsome Arooma 6:12.d) Iyo maanaaya wiira, hiiva pooti wanlakeleehu uhihiyerera itthu innikurumica upanka itthu yootakhala ineettiheraka. (Akala. 5:16) Yehova naakhuluvela wiira ninaakhitiri unyema citthu cinnittehatteha wiira nivare itampi. Unari wiira khaanikhuluvela, uyo khaahala uniruma wiira nipanke iyo itthwiiyo. (Deut. 30:11-14; Aroo. 6:6; 1 Atesal. 4:3) Khweeliini, hiiva ninaahala ukhitiri unyema ukhalana moopuwelelo oohinamaana.
12. Neecoonaka uhikhalana ifayita, isiyani ihinlamuliyeehu upanka ni nlattuni?
12 Inanna imocaaru, nakhalanaka moopuwelelo oohiloka nuupuwelaka wiira ‘Mi akirina ifayita ni Yehova khunhala uncivela uswali waka’, unhala ukhala toko upahuwa wihu phinoolumaca. Masi hiiva khaninlamuliya wiiwelela. Kontha isiyani? Kontha Ibiibiliya ineera wiira Yehova naanicuwela wiira hiiva nikhanlee atthu oopahuwa. (Isaa. 103:13, 14) Uyo naanicuwela sana-saana hiiva, uheela nhina citthu cotheene cinniirannyeela nlattu woopahuwa wihu unniiriha upanka citthu cootakhala. (1 Jo. 3:19, 20) Naananaka moopuwelelo anniiriha upanka citthu cootakha ni ninyemaka upanka, ninaahala ukhalana makhalelo omaana uhoolo wa Yehova. Kontha isiyani ninkupaliihu iyo itthwiiyo?
13-14. Kontha isiyani Yehova uhinnihukhumwaawe nakhalanaka moopuwelelo oohiloka ni nlattuni? Ntaphulele
13 Ibiibiliya, ineera wiira cihaavo citthu piili coovirikana: upanka itthu yootakhala (itthu inkhitiriihu unyema) ni upheela upanka itthu yootakhala (itthu ineerannyaa hiiva woohipheela upanka). Moone itthu yiirannyeele u Korintu. Makristau oopacera yanrupihana alopwanaru ni athiyanaru. Mpaka phimaana Paulu aahantikha co: “Iriyariinyu, ahaavo yaarina ala makhalelwaala.” Niireke iyo itthwiiyo maanaaya wiira ayo atthwaayo khayaahala wuupuwela-tho urupihana alopwanaru awula athiyanaru? Khawaahala ureera wuupuwela commo, kontha ayo muupuwelelwaayo anaapica ukhuma mmuru wantthu. Masi makristau yeevaracile ni yaakhottile upanka citthu coohiloka caapankaaya khalayi, Yehova ahowaamini wiira akhale aswalyaawe. Para Yehova, ayo makristawaayo “yahoorapihiya.” (1 Akor. 6:9-11) Ni iyo itthwiiyo pooti uwiirannyeelani nyuuva.
14 Hataa ukhalaka wiira nnawaanana moopuwelelo oohiloka, nyuuva pooti ukhitiri utthema! Hataa ukhalaka wiira nyuuva khannohala ukhitiri umalamaliha moopuwelelo otheene oohiloka, nyuuva pooti wiivaraca ni ukhotta ‘upanka itthu inciveliha irutthwiinyu ni moopuwelelweenyu.’ (Efesu 2:3) Nttwee noone mananna oopanka iyo itthwiiyo.
NINHALA UTTHEMA CANI?
15. Wiira nittheme moopuwelelo oohiloka, nlattuni ninlamuliyeehu ukhala ookhuluvelyaa?
15 Wiira nkhitiri utthema moopuwelelo oohiloka, nyuuva munlamuliya ukhala ookhuluvelyaa ni uhimananiha uvitha citthu cinvonyeenyu. Mwiivarace wiira nhiithepye ni “moopuwelelo oohinamaana.” (Tiya. 1:22) Wootakihera, ntthu nowurya venci pooti wuupuwela co: ‘Ahaavo atthu enci anwurya cinene ukipwaha miiva’. Awula nlopwana noona ipornografiya pooti umootherya ntthu nkhwaawe. Uyo pooti wuupuwela co: ‘Unari wiira amwaaraka yankithoonyera nifento, miiva khawaahala ukicivela woona ipornografiya’. Ukhalana ayo moopuwelelwaayo unaahala uwiirihani upanka itthu yootakhala mwaattehattehiyaka. Phimaana, nhimananihe wiivaha isariya nhina citthu cinvonyeenyu, hataa nhina moopuwelelweenyu. Nkupali citthu cinvonyeenyu.—Akalas. 6:7.
16. Munhala ulipihaca cani ulakela winyu upanka citthu comaana?
16 Uhiya paahi ukupali citthu cinvonyeenyu, nyuuva nhaana mwiikurumicaka ulipihaca ulakela winyu upanka citthu comaana. (1 Akor. 9:26, 27; 1 Atesal. 4:4; 1 Pet. 1:15, 16) Muupuwele isiyani inoottehattehani ni ukatini iyo itthwiiyo ineerannyaaya. Wootakihera, niireke wiira unawuurikani unyema mwattehattehiyaka nnoocyaale? Awula iyo itthwiiyo ineeranyaaka uhiyu? Mwiitthenkace ni muupuwele itthu inhaleenyu upanka mwattehattehiyaka. Ukati wooreera upanka iyo itthwiiyo ukhanlee wiitthenkaca nhinaaya uttehattehiya.—Miru. 22:3.
17. Isiyani ineetthuceehu nintakihero na Yusufu? (Uphattuwaca 39:7-9) (Nwehe ciicammo ilatarato.)
17 Muupuwele ntakihero na Yusufu. Ukati amwaara a Potifaari wanttehattehilyaaya, uyo khaapicile ni wiira mena. (Nsome Uphattuwaca 39:7-9.e) Iyo itthwiiyo inniitthuciha isiyani? Amwaara a Potifari ahinaaya unttehatteha Yusufu, uyo aholakela wiira khaahala ulakela urupa ni nthiyana theliye. Inanna imocaaru, nyuuva pooti ulakela upanka itthu yomaana nhinaaya uttehattehiya. Mwapankaka commo, khunhala wuurikani upanka itthu yomaana mwattehattehiyaka.
Khampa Yusufu, nnyeme uttehattehiya woohipicapica! (Nwehe iparaagarafu 17)
“NHIHIYERERE WIIWEHAWEHA”
18. Manannani nyuuva nnohaleenyu utthema moopuwelelo oohiloka? (2 Akorintu 13:5)
18 Wiira nnyeme moopuwelelo oohinamaana, nyuuva ciicammo nhaana ‘uhihiyerera wiiwehaweha’. Awula, wiira moone wakhala wiira itthu nlakenleenyu upanka nnaahala ukhitiri wiirannyeeha. (Nsome 2 Akorintu 13:5.f) Khula ukati, moone mananna nnoopuweleenyu ni nnopankeenyu citthunnyo ni mwiikurumice upanka marukunuso. Wootakihera, hataa ukhalaka wiira nhokhitiri utthema uttehattehiya winyu, nyuuva pooti wiikoha co: ‘Kiireke kihopicapica nuukhotta?’ Moonaka wiira mwahopicapoca ukhotta, nhiihukhumu. Uhiya commo, mpanke itthu wiira mwiikhikicere mwattehattehiyaka-tho. Mwiikohe co: ‘Kiireke kinaakhitiriki unyema kakhalanaka moopuwelelo oohinamaana? Kiireke mathukelwaaka anaakiiriha uttehattehiya ni citthu coohinamaana? Yakhumelaka ilatarato yoohinamaana, kiireke kinaakumiha woohipica? Hataa ukhalaka wiira wiivaraca unaarika, kiireke umwiiwelela Yehova ikhanle itthu yomaana inlamuliyaaka upanka?’—Isaa. 101:3.
19. Manannani ulakela upanka citthu cankaani coohiloka cinhalaaya unirikihela waanana moopuwelelo oohiloka?
19 Wowiiwehaweha, nhimananihe uvitha citthu coohinamaana nnopankeenyu. Ibiibiliya ineera: “Nrima khunkhuluvelya cinene ni khuneevaraca.” (Jer. 17:9) Yesu enre “wanrimani phinkhuma moopuwelelo oohinamaana.” (Mat. 15:19) Wootakihera, ntthu hiile woona ipornografiya, nuuwakatyaaya, pooti wuupuwela wiira woona ilatarato coohinamaana khinakhala itthu yootakhala, wakhalaru wiira nnyo ilataratonnyo khacihimmwe caatthu oohiwara. Awula uyo ntthuuyo pooti wuupuwela co: ‘Khinakhala itthu yootakhala miiva wiicuupuwela kipankaka itthu yoohinamaana. Itthu yoohinamaana ukhanlee miiva upanka iyo itthwiiyo.’ Apankaka commo, uyo ntthuuyo “noopuwela upanka citthu cinciveliha irutthu.” (Aroo. 13:14) Ninhala unyema cani iyo itthwiiyo? Ratta ni citthu cinlakeleenyu! Ulakela upanka citthu coohinamaana cooyevaca, pooti uniiriha ulakela upanka citthu coohinamaana cuulupale, toko uhinyema uttehattehiya.g Nnyeme citthu coohinamaana awula “moopuwelelo ootakhala yaahala uwiirihani upanka citthu coohinamaana”.
20. Niwehereroni nirineehu noohoolo ni nikaviheroni nirineehu?
20 Khampa ciitthucileehu, Yehova naanivaha ikuru wiira naanane uttehattehiya. Ni nlattu wo woopoliya, itampi cihu cotheene ciholeveleliya. Ni ciicammo nihaana niweherero nookhala upeephoni mpaka. Inhala ukhala itthu yomaana unswalela Yehova wohimoopuwelelo oohinamaana ni upheela upanka citthu comaana. Masi nihinaaya uphiya uyo ukatyuuyo, nihaana ukupali wiira hiiva nihaana ifayita ni khaninakhala atthu oololovaca. Neekurumicaka upanka mphantteehu ni nicaalihiyaka ni Yehova, pooti wankupaliihu wiira ninaakhitiri utthema moopuwelelo oohinamaana!
