Paulo wo Timoteo, ni ji Kristofonyo onukpa lɛ ŋaa akɛ: “Hã Nyɔŋmɔ-jamɔ hetuu-kɛhamɔ afee oti ni okɛaatsɔse ohe.” (1 Timoteo 4:7, NW) Namɔ ji Kristofonyo “foidalɔ” lɛ tsɔselɔ? Jeee mɔ ko mɔ ko fe Yehowa Nyɔŋmɔ diɛŋtsɛ! Bɔfo Petro ŋma akɛ: ‘Duromɔ fɛɛ Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ diɛŋtsɛ baagbe wɔ tsɔsemɔ lɛ naa ni eeewo nyɛ hewalɛ ni eeeha nyɛfĩ shi shiŋŋ.’—1 Petro 5:10.

Gbalɔ Yesaia kɛɔ akɛ: “Mɛi ni hiɛ kã Yehowa nɔ lɛ náa hewalɛ hee, amɛholeɔ amɛfiji anɔ tamɔ okropɔŋi, amɛjoɔ foi, ni etɔɔɔ amɛ, amɛnyiɛɔ hu, ni amɛgbɔjɔɔɔ.”—Yesaia 40:31.
