Vyoba vyarabaye canke ni ibitito?

Bibiliya irerekana ko Nowa yabayeho koko be n’uko umwuzure wabayeho vy’ukuri. Si umugani canke igitito.

• Abanditsi ba Bibiliya baremera ko Nowa yabayeho koko. Nk’akarorero, abanditsi ba Bibiliya Ezira na Luka bari abahinga mu vya kahise kandi barashize Nowa mu rutonde rw’abo ihanga rya Isirayeli ryakomotseko. (1 Ngoma 1:4; Luka 3:36) Abanditsi b’Injili Matayo na Luka baranditse ivyo Yezu yavuze ku bijanye na Nowa n’umwuzure.​—Matayo 24:37-39; Luka 17:26, 27.

  Umuhanuzi Ezekiyeli n’intumwa Paulo baravuze ko Nowa ari akarorero k’ukwizera n’ubugororotsi. (Ezekiyeli 14:14, 20; Abaheburayo 11:7) Abo banditsi boba bari kuvuga ko umuntu atabayeho ari akarorero twokwigana? Biraboneka ko Nowa n’abandi bagabo n’abagore bari bafise ukwizera ari uburorero twokwigana kubera ko babayeho koko.​—Abaheburayo 12:1; Yakobo 5:17.

• Bibiliya iratanga amakuru y’ido n’ido yerekeye umwuzure. Inkuru ya Bibiliya ivuga ibijanye n’umwuzure ntitangura ngo “Harabaye” nk’aho woba ari umugani. Ahubwo Bibiliya iravuga umwaka, ukwezi n’umusi ibintu vyose bijanye n’umwuzure vyabereyeko. (Itanguriro 7:11; 8:4, 13, 14) Iravuga n’ingene ubwato Nowa yubatse bwangana. (Itanguriro 6:15) Ivyo birerekana ko Bibiliya yigana ivy’umwuzure nk’ikintu cabayeho. Si igitito.

Kubera iki Imana yateje umwuzure?

Bibiliya ivuga ko imbere y’umwuzure “ububi bw’umuntu bwari bugwiriye.” (Itanguriro 6:5) Ivuga kandi ko ‘isi yari yarononekaye mu maso y’Imana y’ukuri’ kubera yari yuzuye ubugizi bwa nabi n’ubusambanyi.​—Itanguriro 6:11; Yuda 6, 7.

Bibiliya ivuga ko bwinshi muri ubwo bubi bwaterwa n’abamarayika babi bari bavuye mw’ijuru baza gusambana n’abagore bo kw’isi. Abo bamarayika bavyaye abana bitwa Abanefilimu, bakaba barateza abantu ingorane nyinshi. (Itanguriro 6:1, 2, 4) Imana yaciye ifata ingingo yo gukura kw’isi ububi bwose kugira abantu beza batangure ubuzima bushasha butagiramwo ubukozi bw’ikibi.​—Itanguriro 6:6, 7, 17.

Abantu boba baramenye ko hobaye umwuzure?

Ego. Imana yarabwiye Nowa ivyari vyimirije kuba ica imutegeka kwubaka ubwato kugira we n’umuryango wiwe n’ibikoko bazoburokokeremwo. (Itanguriro 6:13, 14; 7:1-4) Nowa yaraburiye abantu ko hobaye umwuzure ariko ntibitayeho iyo mburi. (2 Petero 2:5) Bibiliya ivuga iti: “Ntihagi[ra] ico bitaho gushika aho isegenya riziye rikabakukumura bose.”​—Matayo 24:37-39.

Ubwato bwa Nowa bwari bumeze gute?

Ubwato bwari bumeze nk’igisandugu kinini. Bwapima nk’imetero 133 z’uburebure, imetero 22 z’ubwaguke n’imetero 13 z’amahagarara.a Bwari bukoze mu mbaho z’igiti c’uburembo kandi bwari buhometseko ikaburimbo imbere n’inyuma. Bwari bugeretse kabiri bukagira n’ivyumba bitari bike. Bwari bufise umuryango mu mbavu kandi biboneka ko bwari bufise idirisha amaja hejuru. Biboneka kandi ko bwari bufise igisenge kiduze gatoya hagati kugira ngo amazi akiguyeko ace aseseka.​—Itanguriro 6:14-16.

Nowa yamaze igihe kingana gute yubaka ubwo bwato?

Bibiliya ntivuga igihe Nowa yamaze abwubaka ariko biboneka ko bwamutwaye imyaka mirongo. Yari afise imyaka irenga 500 igihe yavyara umwana wa mbere, kandi yari afise imyaka 600 igihe umwuzure waza.b​—Itanguriro 5:32; 7:6.

Igihe Imana yabwira Nowa ngo yubake ubwato, abahungu biwe batatu bari bamaze gukura no kwubaka izabo, ivyo bikaba vyatwaye nk’imyaka 50 canke 60. (Itanguriro 6:14, 18) Dufatiye kuri ivyo, birumvikana tuvuze ko ubwato bwatwaye nk’imyaka 40 canke 50 kugira burangire kwubakwa.
