Ikigabane ca 120
Bamwihakana mu Rugo
INYUMA y’aho Petero na Yohani batereye Yezu mw’itongo ry’i Getsemane hanyuma bagahungana ubwoba bari kumwe n’intumwa zisigaye, bahagarika ivy’uguhunga kwabo. Kumbure bahuriranye na Yezu igihe bariko bamujana kwa Anasi. Aho Anasi amurungikiye ku Muherezi Mukuru Kayafa, Petero na Yohani barakurikira bari ku nta itari nto, kumbure batinyira ubuzima bwabo bwite bakaba kandi bahagaritswe umutima n’ibigiye gushikira Shebuja wabo.
Bashitse kwa Kayafa, na ho hakaba ari ahantu hagutse, Yohani biramushobokera kwinjira mu rugo kubera ko azinanyi n’umuherezi mukuru. Ariko rero, Petero asigaye hanze kw’irembo. Mugabo ntibitevye, Yohani aragaruka avugana n’umucunzi w’irembo, akaba ari umusukukazi, Petero rero abona kurekurirwa kwinjira.
Ubu harakanye, abakozi bo mu nzu hamwe n’abagendanyi b’umuherezi mukuru bakaba bacanye agakomezwa k’amakara. Petero abiyungako ngo yote arindiriye ikija kuva mw’isambishwa rya Yezu. Ngaho, ku muco w’umuriro, wa mucunzi w’irembo yinjiza Petero, aramuraba neza. Avuga yitangaza ati: “Nawe nyene mwari kumwe na Yezu Umunyagalilaya.”
Petero ateshwa umutwe n’uko bamumenye, arahakana imbere yabo bose y’uko atigeze amenya Yezu. Avuga ati: ‘Eka sindamuzi, mbere sintahura n’ivyo uriko uravuga.’
Petero avuze ivyo aca agenda hambavu y’umuryango w’irembo. Ngaho sinzi uwundi mwigeme amumenye, na we nyene abwira abahagaze ngaho ati: “N’uyu nyene yari kumwe na Yesu Umunyanazareti.” N’ubu nyene Petero aravyihakana, ararahira ararengwa ati: “Uyo muntu sindamuzi.”
Petero aguma aho mu rugo, agerageza kwihisha uko ashoboye. Kumbure bigeze aho, akangwa n’ukubika kw’inkoko mu mwijima wo mu gicugu c’ubuca. Muri ako kanya, isambishwa rya Yezu rirabandanya, rigashobora kuba ririko riragirirwa mu gice co hejuru c’inzu y’aho mu rugo. Nta gukeka, Petero n’abandi barindiririye hasi barabona uruja n’uruza rw’amasura atari amwe yarengukijwe ngo ashinge intahe.
Hafi isaha kuva bivuzwe ubwa nyuma yuko Petero yari kumwe na Yezu. Ubu abatari bake mu bari ngaho baje kuri we bavuga bati: “N’ivy’ukuri na we ur’uwo muri bo; bitayeko n’imvugo yawe iraguhinyuza.” Umwe muri uwo mugwi ni incuti ya Malikusi umwe Petero yaca ugutwi. Avuga ati: “Sinakubonye uri kumwe na we muri rya tongo?”
Petero avuga ashimangira ati: “Uyo muntu sindamuzi.” Nkako, agerageza kubajijura yuko bose bihenda, mu kurahira yisiba ahakana ico kintu, yigenera akabi karibumushikire hamwe atoba ariko avuga ukuri.
Petero amwihakanye gutyo ubugira gatatu, inkoko irabika. Hanyuma muri ico gihe Yezu, uwo biboneka ko yasohotse akaja mu rubaraza ruri hejuru ya nya rugo, arahindukira araba Petero. Buno nyene, Petero yibuka ico Yezu yari yavugiye mu nzu yo hejuru imbere y’amasaha makeyi ahaciye, ngo “inkoko itarabika, uja kunyihakana gatatu.” Petero avunywe umutima n’uburemere bw’ico caha ciwe, aja hanze, ararira arabogoza.
Ivyo bishoboye gushika bite? Bishobotse gute ko Petero, uwari yishimiye rwose ubukomezi bwiwe bwo mu vy’impwemu, yihakana Shebuja incuro zitatu zikurikirana bidatevye? Hari aho uko ibintu vyari vyifashe kwoba kwatumye Petero aterwa atiteguye. Ukuri kwariko kuragorekwa, Yezu na we akaba yariko yerekanwa ko ari inkozi y’ikibi mbi. Ibigororotse vyariko birahindurwa ibibi, uwutaco yagirizwa yerekanwa nk’umunyacaha. Kubera rero imikazo Petero yarimwo ico gihe, vyatumye adandabagirana. Nk’aka kanya, umutima ubereye yari afise w’ukudahemuka warajuragiritse; akongatazwa n’ugutinya abantu, na vyo bimutera intuntu. Ivyo ntibikigere bidushikira!
