Maji sayi ithangana mwene wabhingile we kiximbakatesu.—Loma 9:1, 2.

O veji yadyanga i tu sanga o dijina dya Adistaku mu Bibidya, mu musoso wa njila ya katatu ya bhange Phawulu ku mbanza ya Efezu kala mukunji wa jixi. Kyoso kyexile mu xinjikila Phawulu, Adistaku amukwata ku athu exile mubhanga kavwanza. (Ika. 19:29) Kyoso kya mweha, mwene ka lenge phala kulanga o mwenyu wê, kana.

(Ika. 20:2-4) Mu muvu wa 58 K.K., kyoso Phawulu kya mu tumikisa ku Loma mu kangolonda, Adistaku wa mu xinjikila, a kolokota kumoxi kyoso kya bobele ni ulungu mu njila yendele. (Ika. 27:1, 2, 41) Yoso ilondekesa kwila, kyoso kya bhixila ku Loma, Adistaku nange wa bhiti ithangana ni Phawulu mu kaleya.

Né mwene se kibhidi kya bhiti kyá, o jiphange jetu abhindamena hanji ku aximbakatesa. Filomena, * wa fundu o tata ni mama mu mbeji jitatu, wambe: “Nga mono kwila, o ibhidi i tu bhekela hadi mu thembu yavulu. Ngi wabhela kyavulu kyoso o makamba a fiyele kya lembalala kwila, ngala hanji ni ndolo ku muxima, sumbala kwa bhiti kyá ithangana tundé kyafu o jitata jami.”

Mu kifika, sayi phange a mwixana Phetele, o dotolo yê ya mu tangela kwila, wala ni uhaxi wabhonzo, utena ku mu jibha. Muhat’wê Kati, wambe: “Sayi dikaza mu kilunga kyetu, a dibakula phala ku twambata ku kididi kya mu kalakala o dotolo wa mono o uhaxi wa Phetele. Mu kithangana kyenyokyo, ene a mateka ku tu kwatekesa, ka twehela ubheka wetu kyoso ki twa dibhana ni ibhididi yiyi.” Sé phata, kima kyambote kukala ni makamba a kidi, a tu kwatekesa kukolokota mu ithangana ya ibhidi!
KALA UDIKAMBA DYA KIDI KALA TIKIKU

7 Tikiku, Kidistá wa tokala ku Loma, ku ixi ya Aziya, wexile dikamba dya kidi phala Phawulu. (Ika. 20:4) Mu muvu 55 K.K., Phawulu wa phopheka kitadi kya sangela o ilunga phala kukwatekesa o Jikidistá mu Judeya. Nange Tikiku wa kwatekesa Phawulu mu kikalakalu kiki kya katunda. (2 Kol. 8:18-20) Mu kubhita kithangana kyoso Phawulu a mu te mu kangolonda mu veji yadyanga, Tikiku wexile mu mu kalakela kala mwambati a mikanda mu ilunga. Mwene wambata o mikanda ya Phawulu, ni jinjimbu ja kuswinisa o ilunga ku Aziya.—Kol. 4:7-9.
8 Tikiku wa suluka ni kukala dikamba dya kidi dya Phawulu. (Titu 3:12) O Jikidistá joso ku hama ya dyanga kexile athu a kudyelela kala Tikiku. Ku muvu wa 65 K.K., mu veji ya kayadi kyate Phawulu mu kaleya, mwene wa sonekena mukanda phala o Jikidistá javulu ku Aziya ka mesenene kudilunga ni mwene, nange mukonda exile ni wôma wa jinguma.

9. Kyebhi ki tu tena kukayela o phangu ya Tikiku?

(Mat. 5:37; Luka 16:10) Kyoso yó a bhindamena o kikwatekesu kya mona kwila a tena ku tu dyelela, ene a divwa dingi kyambote. Sayi phange wa jimbulula se mukonda dyahi. Mwene wambe: “Eye u tululuka dingi mukonda wejiya kwila o athu u wa dyelela anda kubhana o kikwatekesu mu kithangana ki wa bhindama.”

10 Yó a dibhana ni ibhidi mba kuluwala mu veji javulu, a sanga kiximbakatesu mu kudyelela ku makamba. (Tanga Jisabhu 18:24.) Phange Bejami wa luwalele kyavulu kyoso mon’ê wa dyanga a mute mu kamukonde, mwene wambe: “Eme nga bhindamene kujikula o muxima wami ku dikamba dya kidi.” Mukonda dya kitondalu kyê, phange Karlu ka tokalele dingi kubhanga o kikalakalu kya kexile mu bhanga. Mwene wambe: “Nga bhindamene ‘dikamba dya kidi’ phala kujikula o muxima wami se wôma wa ku ngi fundisa.” Karlu wa sange dikamba dya kidi. O muthu yu kafunga wa mu kwatekesa kutolola o maka. Mwene wa mono o kikwatekesu mu kwijiya kwila o kafunga muthu u bhaka o kikutu.
11. Ihi ya bhingi phala kukala dikamba dya kidi ni kwijiya kubhaka kikutu?

Mwene wambe: “Ene a ngivu ni mwanyu woso, sumbala nga bhitulula ima mu veji javulu.” Eye we u tena kukala dikamba dyambote mu kukala ngivwidi yambote.
KALA POLONDO PHALA KUSIDIVILA AKWENU KALA MÁLUKU
12. Máluku wexile nanyi ni kyebhi kya londekesa kwila wexile mukwá kudibhakula?
12 Máluku wexile Kidistá mu mbanza ya Jeluzaleme. Sekul’wê Balanabé, wexile mukunji wa jixi, a mwijidile kyambote. (Kol. 4:10) O mwiji wa Máluku, exile jimvwama. Né kiki, o jimbongo ki jene jexile o kima kya beta-kota ku mwenyu wa Máluku. Ku mwenyu wê woso, Máluku wa londekesa o ukexilu wa kudibhakula, wa sangulukile mu kusidivila akwâ. Mu kifika, mwene wa sidivila kikale ni poxolo Phawulu kikale ni poxolo Phetele, mu ikalakalu yâ. Nange Máluku mwene wa bhana kudya, wa sange inzo phala ene, wa bhange dingi ima yengi. (Ika. 13:2-5; 1 Phe. 5:13) Phawulu wa jimbulula kwila, Máluku wexile bhu kaxi ka yó a mu “bande mba a mu kwatekesa mu kikalakalu kya Utuminu wa Nzambi,” kala “athu a mu ngi konda malamba.”—Kol. 4:10, 11.

Mu mukanda yú, Phawulu wabhingi kwa Timote phala kwiza ku Loma kumoxi ni Máluku. (2 Tim. 4:11) Sé phata, Phawulu wa wabhelele o sidivisu ya fiyele ya bhangele Máluku, kyene kya mu bhangesa kumwixana mu kithangana kiki kya katunda. Máluku wa kwatekesa kyavulu Phawulu, nange wa mu dikila o nzala, wa mu bhana jifalamenda phala kusoneka. O kikwatekesu ni kiswinisu kya tambula Phawulu, kya mu kwatekesa kukolokota mu izuwa ya sukidilaku ya mwenyu wê, katé kya mu jibha.
14-15. O divulu dya Matesu 7:12 i tena ku tu longa ihi yalungu ni mawukexile a kukwatekesa akwetu?
14 Tanga Matesu 7:12. Kyoso ki tu dibhana ni ibhidi yabhonzo, tu wabhela kyavulu kutambula o kikwatekesu kya akwetu!

Kiximbakatesa kyoso muthu kya bhanga kima phala ku tu kwatekesa, né mwene mu kama kofele.”
15 Se tu tonginina kyambote, tu tena kusanga mawukexilu a kukwatekesa akwetu. Mu kifika, o dikaza Phetele ni Kati, twa a tumbula kudimatekenu, a tambula o kikwatekesa kya phange ya muhatu wa dibhakula phala kwa ambata mu inzo ya kusaka. Kikale Phetele kikale Kati, katenene kwendesa o dikalu. Kyenyiki-phe, sayi phange ya muhatu wa sokejeka o ima phala o jiphange javulu ja dibhakula mu kilunga, a tene kudibhinganesa mu kwambata o dikaza mu inzo ya kusaka, phala kutambula o milongo.

Mwene wa tambula ikalakala ya katunda mu kilunga, kala o kusoneka o divulu dyambata o dijina dyê, ditanga o musoso wa mwenyu wa Jezú. Né kiki, Máluku wa soto kithangana phala kuximbakatesa Phawulu.

Mwene wambe: “Kyoso o makamba a kidi kya tu kwatekesa, ene a zwela sé hele. Ka kala ni jisonyi ja ku tu kwatekesa.” Tu tena kudibhwidisa: ‘O kwila ngene mu kala polondo phala kuximbakatesa o jiphange mu mawukexilu avulu?’

Ninu, wa fundu avo yê, wambe: “Se twehela, Jihova utena kuximbakatesa akwetu bhu kaxi k’etu.” (Tanga 2 Kolindu 1:3, 4.) Filomena, twa mu tumbula kudimatekenu, wambe: “O izwelu ya 2 Kolindu 1:4, ya kidi mwene. Tu tena kukonda o malamba a jiphange, bhu kaxi ka kiximbakatesu ki twa tambula we kwa akwetu.”

Poxolo Phawulu wa tenene kukolokota ni ufiyele katé ku ufwilu wê, bhu mbandu, mukonda dya kiximbakatesu kya tambula ku Jikidistá ni akwâ. Tu bhange yoso phala tu kale tu athu a fiyele kala kyexile Adistaku, tu kale tu athu a ku dyelela kala Tikiku, tu kale polondo phala kusidivila akwetu kala Máluku. Mu kubhanga kiki, twanda tena kukwatekesa o jiphange jetu, ene anda suluka ni kusidivila Jihova ni ufiyele woso.—1 Tes. 3:2, 3.
