Amateka Ahishwe y’Umurongo wa Mirongo Ine — Nimero Mirongo Itatu n’Ibyiri

Nuko rero nimubona ikizira cy’ubutayu, cyavuzwe na Daniyeli umuhanuzi, gihagaze ahera, (usoma abyumve). Matayo 24:15.

“Igihe ubu buhanuzi bwasohoraga mu buryo bw’igice mu irimbuka rya Yerusalemu, bufite ishyirwa mu bikorwa rirushaho kuba ry’ako kanya mu minsi y’imperuka.

“Duhagaze ku muryango w’ibintu bikomeye kandi bikomeye byuzuye uburemere. Ubuhanuzi buri gusohora bwihuse. Uwiteka ari ku rugi. Vuba aha imbere yacu hagiye gufunguka igihe kizakurura cyane inyungu y’abariho bose. Impaka zo mu bihe byashize zigiye kongera kubyutswa; kandi hazavuka impaka nshya. Ibizabera mu isi yacu ntibirajya no kurota.” Testimonies, volume 5, 753.

Nawe, mwana w’umuntu, ifatire ibuye ry’umukarani, urishyire imbere yawe, urishushanyemo umudugudu, ari wo Yerusalemu. Uwurwanishe, uhubakeho igihome, uruhurize ikirundo cy’ubutaka; uhashinge n’ingabo, uhagoteshe n’ibimene by’intambara impande zose. Kandi noneho ifatire isafuriya y’icyuma, uyigire urukuta rw’icyuma hagati yawe n’uwo mudugudu; uhindurire yo amaso yawe, na wo uzagotezwa, kandi uzawugota. Icyo kizaba ikimenyetso ku nzu ya Isirayeli.

Kandi uryame no ku rubavu rwawe rw’ibumoso, urushyireho gukiranirwa kw’inzu ya Isirayeli; ukurikije umubare w’iminsi uzaruryamaho ni ko uzikorera gukiranirwa kwabo. Kuko nagushyizeho imyaka yo gukiranirwa kwabo, ikurikije umubare w’iminsi, iminsi magana atatu na mirongo cyenda; ni ko uzikorera gukiranirwa kw’inzu ya Isirayeli. Nuko nimara iyo minsi, uzongere uryame ku rubavu rwawe rw’iburyo, kandi uzikorere gukiranirwa kw’inzu ya Yuda iminsi mirongo ine: ngushyiriyeho buri munsi kuba umwaka. Nuko uzerekeza mu maso hawe ku kugotwa kwa Yerusalemu, ukuboko kwawe kuzabe kutwikiriye, kandi uzahanuze uburwanya. Kandi dore, nzagushyiraho ingoyi, kandi ntuzahindukira uva ku rubavu rumwe ngo ujye ku rundi, kugeza igihe uzarangiriza iminsi yo kugotwa kwawe. Ezekiyeli 4:1–8.

Mwana w’umuntu, uba hagati mu nzu y’abagome, bafite amaso yo kureba ariko ntibabone; bafite amatwi yo kumva ariko ntibumve; kuko ari inzu y’abagome. Nuko rero, wa mwana w’umuntu we, itegurire ibikoresho byo kwimuka, maze wimuke ku manywa babireba; kandi uzimuke uve aho uri ujye ahandi hantu babireba: ahari bazabitekerezaho, nubwo ari inzu y’abagome. Hanyuma uzasohore ibikoresho byawe ku manywa babireba, nk’ibikoresho byo kwimuka; kandi uzasohoke nimugoroba babireba, nk’abajya mu bunyage. Ucukure mu rukuta babireba, unyuremo usohorane ibyo bikoresho. Babireba uzabiheke ku rutugu rwawe, ubisohorane mu kabwibwi: uzipfuke mu maso hawe kugira ngo utabona ubutaka; kuko nagushyizeho kuba ikimenyetso ku nzu ya Isirayeli. Ezekiel 12:2–6.

Mwana w’umuntu, mbese inzu ya Isirayeli, ya nzu y’ibyigomeke, ntiyakubajije iti: “Urimo ukora iki?” Ujye ubabwira uti: “Uwiteka Imana iravuze iti: Ubu butumwa buremereye bwerekeye umutware uri i Yerusalemu, n’inzu yose ya Isirayeli iri muri bo.” Uvuge uti: “Ndi ikimenyetso cyanyu; nk’uko nabikoze, ni ko bizabagendekera; bazimurwa kandi bajyanwe mu bunyage.” Ezekiyeli 12:9–11.

“Buri umwe mu bahanuzi ba kera yavuze ibirenze iby’igihe cye kurusha uko yavugiraga igihe cye ubwe, kugira ngo ubuhanuzi bwabo bugire imbaraga kuri twe. ‘Ibyo byose byababayeho ngo bibe ingero; kandi byanditswe ngo bitubere umuburo, twebwe abo imperuka z’ibihe zasohoreweho.’ 1 Abakorinto 10:11. ‘Ntabwo bakoreraga ubwabo, ahubwo bakoreraga mwe, ibyo mwabwiwe none n’abababwirije ubutumwa bwiza ku bwa Mwuka Wera watumwe ava mu ijuru; ari byo bintu n’abamarayika bifuza kureba.’ 1 Petero 1:12....”

“Bibiliya yakusanyije kandi ihuriza hamwe ubutunzi bwayo bwose ku bw’iki gisekuru cya nyuma. Ibyabaye byose bikomeye n’ibikorwa byose bikomeye kandi biteye ubwoba by’amateka yo mu Isezerano rya Kera byarasubiwemo, kandi biracyasubirwamo, mu itorero muri iyi minsi y’imperuka.” Selected Messages, igitabo cya 3, 338, 339.

Nuko mu mwaka wa cyenda, mu kwezi kwa cumi, ku munsi wa cumi w’uko kwezi, ijambo ry’Uwiteka ringeraho, riti: Mwana w’umuntu, wandike izina ry’uyu munsi, ari wo uyu munsi nyirizina; umwami w’i Babuloni yagose Yerusalemu kuri uyu munsi nyirizina.

Maze ubwire inzu y’abagome umugani, ubabwire uti: Uku ni ko Umwami Imana avuga: Tereka inkono ku ziko, uyitereke rwose, unayisukemo amazi. Uyishyiremo ibice byayo, koko buri gice cyiza, ikibero n’urutugu; uyuzuzemo amagufwa yatoranyijwe. Fata intama yatoranyijwe mu mukumbi, unacanire amagufwa munsi yayo, uyiteke neza rwose, kandi amagufwa yayo ayitekeremo imbere. Ni cyo gituma uku ari ko Umwami Imana avuga ati: Ni ishyano umudugudu w’amaraso, inkono ifite ingese zayo imbere, kandi izo ngese zayo ntizivuyemo! Muyikuremo ibice kimwekimwe; ntihakagwe ubufindo kuri yo. Kuko amaraso yayo ari hagati muri yo; yayashyize ku gitare cyambaye ubusa; ntiyayasutse ku butaka ngo atwikwe n’umukungugu; kugira ngo azamure umujinya wo guhorera. Nashyize amaraso yayo ku gitare cyambaye ubusa, kugira ngo adatwikirwa.

Ni cyo gituma Uwiteka Imana avuze atya ati: Umujyi wamenetsemo amaraso, uragowe! Nanjye nzatuma ikirundo cy’inkwi z’umuriro kiba kinini. Gerekaho inkwi, ucanire umuriro, uteke inyama zishiremo rwose, uzisogongeshe neza, kandi amagufwa atwikwe. Hanyuma ushyire inkono ubusa ku makara yayo, kugira ngo umuringa wayo ushyuhe, uturike, kandi umwanda wayo ushongereremo, kugira ngo ububobere bwayo bushireho. Yirushije ubusa mu kinyoma, ariko ububobere bwayo bwinshi ntibwayivuyemo: ububobere bwayo buzashirira mu muriro. Mu mwanda wawe harimo ubusambanyi buteye ishozi; kuko naguhumanuriye, ariko ntiwahumana, ntuzongera guhumanurwa ngo ukire umwanda wawe, kugeza aho nzaruhuriza uburakari bwanjye kuri wowe. Jyewe Uwiteka ni jye wabivuze: bizasohora, kandi nzabikora; sinzisubiraho, kandi sinzababarira, kandi sinzicuza; bazagucira urubanza bakurikije inzira zawe, kandi bakurikije ibyo wakoze, ni ko Uwiteka Imana avuga.

Ijambo ry’Uwiteka ryongera kunzaho, riti: Mwana w’umuntu, dore ngiye kugukuraho ikinezeza amaso yawe nkubise igihwereye; nyamara ntuzaboroga cyangwa ngo urire, kandi amarira yawe ntazatemba. Wiyumanganye, ntuborogere abapfuye; uzirikane igitambaro cyo ku mutwe wawe, wambare inkweto ku birenge byawe, kandi ntugapfuke iminwa yawe, ntunarye umugati w’ab’abantu. Nuko mvugisha abantu mu gitondo; nimugoroba umugore wanjye arapfa; maze mu gitondo nkora uko nategetswe. Abantu barambaza bati: Mbese nturaza kutubwira icyo ibyo bintu bitubwiyeho, ko ari cyo gituma ubikora utyo?

Maze ndabasubiza nti: Ijambo ry’Uwiteka ryangezeho, riti: Bwira inzu ya Isirayeli uti: Uku ni ko Uwiteka Imana ivuga iti: Dore ngiye guhumanya ubuturo bwanjye bwera, ubwiza bw’imbaraga zanyu, icyo amaso yanyu yifuzaga, n’icyo ubugingo bwanyu bwagiriye impuhwe; kandi abahungu banyu n’abakobwa banyu mwasizeyo bazicwa n’inkota. Namwe muzagira nk’uko nagize: ntimuzitwikira ku munwa, kandi ntimuzarya ibyokurya by’abantu. Imitambiko yanyu izaba ku mitwe yanyu, n’inkweto zanyu zizaba ku birenge byanyu; ntimuzaboroga kandi ntimuzarira; ahubwo muzashirira mu byaha byanyu, kandi muzaborogera hamwe. Uko ni ko Ezekiyeli ababereye ikimenyetso: ibyo yakoze byose ni byo muzagira; kandi ubwo ibyo bizaba, ni bwo muzamenya yuko ndi Uwiteka Imana. Ezekiyeli 24:1–24.

“Igihe Kristo yarebaga hasi ari ku gasongero k’Umusozi wa Elayono, yabonye iyi mimerere y’ibintu iri muri buri torero. Izi mbuzi zimanukira kuri bose bakurikira inzira y’abantu b’i Yerusalemu, bari bafite umucyo mwinshi cyane. Aba bantu bari imbere yacu nk’umuburo. Mu kwanga imiburo y’Imana muri iki gihe cyacu, abantu barimo gusubiramo icyaha cya Yerusalemu. Uwiteka abona ibyo umukozi w’umuntu atabona kandi atazabona—ingaruka zose z’amayeri yose y’abantu yakorewe i Battle Creek. Yakoze ibyo Imana yashoboraga gukora byose. Yarabamurikiye imbere y’amaso y’abantu, kugira ngo ibyaha byabo bitagera ku rugabano aho kwihana bitakibasha kumvwa. Ariko binyuze mu nzira ndende yo guteshuka ku mahame akwiriye kandi akiranuka, abantu bishyize aho umucyo n’ukuri, ubutabera n’imbabazi bitakibonwa. Iyi nzira yahindutse kimwe n’imiterere yabo bwite cyane.” Testimonies, volume 8, 68.

Nuko Ezekiyeli azababera ikimenyetso: uko yakoze kose ni ko namwe muzagira; kandi ubwo ibyo bizaba, muzamenya ko ndi Uwiteka Imana. Kandi nawe, mwana w’umuntu, mbese si ku munsi nzabamburaho imbaraga zabo, umunezero w’ikuzo ryabo, icyifuzo cy’amaso yabo, n’icyo imitima yabo yibandaho, ari bo bahungu babo n’abakobwa babo, ko kuri uwo munsi uwarokotse azakugereraho kugira ngo abyumvishe amatwi yawe? Kuri uwo munsi akanwa kawe kazabumburwa imbere y’uwarokotse, uzavuga, kandi ntuzaba ukiri ikiragi; kandi uzababera ikimenyetso; na bo bazamenya ko ndi Uwiteka. Ezekiyeli 24:24–27.

Ariko nk’uko iminsi ya Nowa yari iri, ni ko no kuza kw’Umwana w’umuntu kuzaba. Kuko nk’uko byari bimeze muri iyo minsi yabanjirije umwuzure, bararyaga kandi bakanywaga, bararongoraga kandi bagashyingirwaga, kugeza ku munsi Nowa yinjiye mu nkuge; kandi ntibamenya kugeza ubwo umwuzure wazaga ukabatwara bose; ni ko no kuza kw’Umwana w’umuntu kuzaba. Matayo 24:37–39.

Kandi Enoki na we, uwa karindwi uhereye kuri Adamu, yahanuye ibyabo, ati: Dore, Umwami araje azanye ibihumbi mirongo by’abera be, kugira ngo acire bose urubanza, kandi ahamye abatubaha Imana bose bo muri bo ku bw’ibikorwa byabo byose byo kutubaha Imana bakoze batubaha Imana, no ku bw’amagambo yabo yose akomeye abanyabyaha batubaha Imana bamuvuzeho. Yuda 1:14, 15.

Nuko mbona indi nyamaswa izamuka iva mu isi; yari ifite amahembe abiri asa n’ay’umwana w’intama, kandi yavugaga nk’ikiyoka. Ibyahishuwe 13:11.

Nuko Uwiteka abumbura akanwa k’indogobe, maze ibwira Balamu iti: “Ni iki nagukoreye, ko unkubise incuro eshatu zose?” Balamu abwira indogobe ati: “Ni uko unnyigishije; iyaba nari mfite inkota mu kuboko kwanjye, ubu mba nkishe.” Indogobe ibwira Balamu iti: “Mbese si ndi indogobe yawe, uwo umaze kugendaho uhereye igihe wabereye nyirayo ukageza n’uyu munsi? Hari ubwo nigeze kumenyera kugukorera ntyo?” Arayisubiza ati: “Oya.” Kubara 22:28–30.

Kuko iyerekwa rikiri iry’igihe cyagenwe, ariko ku iherezo rizavuga kandi ntirizabeshya; nubwo ryatinda, uritegereze; kuko rizaza rwose, ntirizatinda. Habakuki 2:3.

Ni iki gituma ububabare bwanjye buhoraho iteka, n’igikomere cyanjye kikaba kidakira, cyanga gukira? Mbese uzambera rwose nk’umunyabinyoma, kandi nk’amazi ayoyoka? Ni cyo gituma Uwiteka avuga ati: Nugaruka, ni bwo nzakugarura, kandi uzahagarara imbere yanjye; kandi nutandukanya ikintu cy’igiciro n’ikizira agaciro, uzamera nk’akanwa kanjye; bo bazakugarukireho, ariko wowe ntuzabagarukireho. Yeremiya 15:18, 19.

Zakariya abwira marayika ati: “Ibyo nzabimenyeshwa n’iki? Kuko ndi umusaza, kandi umugore wanjye ageze mu za bukuru.” Marayika aramusubiza ati: “Ndi Gaburiyeli, uhagarara imbere y’Imana; kandi natumwe kuvugana nawe no kukugezaho aya makuru meza. Kandi dore, uzamera nk’ikiragi, ntuzabasha kuvuga kugeza ku munsi ibyo bizasohorerwa, kuko utizeye amagambo yanjye, azasohora mu gihe cyayo.”

Abantu bategerezaga Zakariya, batangazwa n’uko yatindaga cyane mu rusengero. Ariko asohotse ntiyabasha kuvugana na bo; maze bamenya ko yabonye iyerekwa mu rusengero, kuko yabaciriye amarenga kandi akomeza kuba ikiragi. Luka 1:18–22.

Mu minsi ya Herodi, umwami w’i Yudaya, habayeho umutambyi witwaga Zakariya, wo mu mutwe wa Abiya; umugore we na we yari uwo mu bakobwa ba Aroni, kandi izina rye ryari Elizabeti. Bombi bari abakiranutsi imbere y’Imana, bagendera mu mategeko yose no mu byategetswe by’Umwami nta cyo babahozwa. Kandi nta mwana bari bafite, kuko Elizabeti yari ingumba; kandi bombi bari bageze mu zabukuru cyane. Nuko igihe yakoraga umurimo w’ubutambyi imbere y’Imana nk’uko byari bikurikiranye mu mutwe we, hakurikijwe umugenzo w’umurimo w’ubutambyi, ubufindo bwe bwari ubwo kwinjira mu rusengero rw’Umwami ngo atwike imibavu. Kandi imbaga yose y’abantu yari hanze isenga mu gihe cyo gutwika imibavu. Luka 1:5–10.

Nuko umumarayika w’Umwami amubonekera ahagaze iburyo bw’igicaniro cy’imibavu. Zekariya amubonye, ahagarika umutima, ubwoba bumugwa gitumo. Ariko umumarayika aramubwira ati: Witinya, Zekariya, kuko gusenga kwawe kwumviswe; kandi umugore wawe Elizabeti azakubyarira umuhungu, uzamwite Yohana. Kandi uzagira umunezero n’ibyishimo; kandi benshi bazishimira ukuvuka kwe. Kuko azaba mukuru imbere y’Umwami, kandi ntazanywa vino cyangwa igisindisha icyo ari cyo cyose; kandi azuzuzwa Umwuka Wera, ndetse akiri mu nda ya nyina. Kandi benshi bo mu bana ba Isirayeli azabahindurira ku Mwami Imana yabo. Kandi azamubanziriza mu mwuka no mu mbaraga bya Eliya, kugira ngo ahindure imitima y’ababyeyi bayereke ku bana, n’abagomyi abayereke ku bwenge bw’abakiranutsi; ngo ategurire Umwami ubwoko bwateguwe. Nuko Zekariya abaza umumarayika ati: Ibyo nzabimenyesha n’iki? Kuko ndi umukambwe, kandi umugore wanjye arashaje cyane. Umumarayika aramusubiza ati: Ndi Gaburiyeli, uhagarara imbere y’Imana; kandi natumwe kuvugana nawe no kukubwira aya makuru meza. Luka 1:11–19.

Dore, nzaboherereza Eliya umuhanuzi mbere y’uko umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Uwiteka uza; kandi azagarura imitima y’ababyeyi ku bana, n’imitima y’abana ku babyeyi babo, kugira ngo ntazaza ngakubita isi umuvumo. Malaki 4:5, 6.

Itsinda ritababazwa no gusubira inyuma kwaryo mu by’umwuka, kandi ritaborogera ibyaha by’abandi, rizasigara ridafite ikimenyetso cy’Imana. Uwiteka ategeka intumwa Ze, abagabo bafite intwaro zo kwica mu maboko yabo, ati: “Mugende mumukurikire munyure mu murwa, mukubite; ijisho ryanyu ntirigire uwo ribabarira, kandi ntimugire impuhwe na nke; mwice rwose abasaza n’abasore, abakobwa n’abana bato n’abagore; ariko ntimukegere umuntu n’umwe uriho ikimenyetso; kandi muhere ku buturo Bwanjye bwera. Nuko bahera ku basaza bari imbere y’inzu.”

“Aha ni ho tubona ko Itorero—ahantu hera h’Umwami—ari ryo rya mbere ryumvise igikubitisho cy’uburakari bw’Imana. Abasaza, ari bo abo Imana yari yarahaye umucyo mwinshi kandi bari barahagaze nk’abarinzi b’inyungu z’umwuka z’abaturage, bari barahemukiye icyizere bari baragiriwe. Bari barafashe umwanzuro w’uko tudakwiriye gutegereza ibitangaza n’ukwiyerekana kugaragara kw’imbaraga z’Imana nk’uko byari bimeze mu minsi ya kera. Ibihe byarahindutse. Ayo magambo akomeza kutizera kwabo, maze bakavuga bati: Umwami ntazakora icyiza, kandi ntazakora n’ikibi. Agira imbabazi nyinshi cyane ku buryo atasura ubwoko bwe azanywe no guca urubanza. Ni ko rero ‘Amahoro n’umutekano’ biba ari byo birahurwa n’abantu batazongera ukundi kurangurura ijwi ryabo nk’impanda kugira ngo bereke ubwoko bw’Imana ibicumuro byabwo n’inzu ya Yakobo ibyaha byayo. Izo mbwa z’ibiragi zitashakaga kubihira ni zo zigirwaho n’uguhora gukiranuka kw’Imana yarakajwe. Abagabo, inkumi, n’abana bato bose barimburanira hamwe.” Testimonies, umuzingo wa 5, 211.

Nuko hanyuma y’iyo minsi, umugore we Elizabeti asama inda, yiherera amezi atanu, avuga ati: Uku ni ko Uwiteka yambaniye mu minsi yanyitegerejemo kugira ngo ankureho igisuzuguriro cyanjye mu bantu. Maze mu kwezi kwa gatandatu marayika Gaburiyeli atumwa n’Imana ajya mu mudugudu w’i Galilaya witwa Nazareti. Luka 1:24–26.

Muri iyo minsi Mariya arahaguruka, ajya mu misozi yihuta, yinjira mu mudugudu w’i Yudaya; yinjira mu nzu ya Zakariya, maze aramutsa Elizabeti. Nuko Elizabeti yumvise indamutso ya Mariya, umwana wari mu nda ye arasaduka; Elizabeti yuzuzwa Umwuka Wera. Arangurura ijwi rirenga aravuga ati: Hahirwa wowe mu bagore, kandi hahirwa n’imbuto yo mu nda yawe. Mbese ibi ni ibiki kuri jye, ko nyina w’Umwami wanjye aza kundeba? Kuko dore, ijwi ry’indamutso yawe rikigera mu matwi yanjye, umwana wo mu nda yanjye yansadukiye anezerewe. Kandi hahirwa uwizeye; kuko ibyo yabwiwe n’Umwami bizasohora. Luka 1:39–45.

“Abamarayika boherejwe gutabara wa mumarayika ukomeye wari uvuye mu ijuru, maze numva amajwi yasaga n’aho yumvikanira hose agira ati: ‘Nimusohoke muri we, bwoko bwanjye, kugira ngo mudahurira mu byaha bye, kandi kugira ngo mutazagerwaho n’ibyorezo bye. Kuko ibyaha bye byageze no mu ijuru, kandi Imana yibutse gukiranirwa kwe.’ Ubu butumwa bwasaga n’aho ari inyongera ku butumwa bwa gatatu, bwifatanya na bwo nk’uko ijwi ryo mu gicuku ryifatanyije n’ubutumwa bw’umumarayika wa kabiri mu wa 1844. Icyubahiro cy’Imana cyagumye ku bera bihangana kandi bategereza, maze batanga nta bwoba umuburo wa nyuma ukomeye, batangaza kugwa kwa Babuloni kandi bahamagarira ubwoko bw’Imana kuyisohokamo kugira ngo bubashe kurokoka kurimbuka kwayo guteye ubwoba.” Early Writings, 277.

N’abagenda banyura mu gihugu, umuntu nabona igufwa ry’umuntu, azarihagarikaho ikimenyetso, kugeza ubwo abahamba bazarishyingura mu kibaya cya Hamongogi. Kandi n’izina ry’umudugudu rizaba Hamona. Uko ni ko bazezwa igihugu. Ezekiyeli 39:15, 16.

Kandi nzagirana na bo isezerano ry’amahoro; rizababera isezerano ry’iteka ryose; kandi nzabashyira ahantu habo, mbagwize, nshyire ubuturo bwanjye bwera hagati muri bo iteka ryose. Ihema ryanjye na ryo rizabana na bo; koko, nzababera Imana yabo, na bo bazambera ubwoko bwanjye. Kandi abanyamahanga bazamenya yuko ari jye Uwiteka weza Abisirayeli, igihe ubuturo bwanjye bwera buzaba hagati muri bo iteka ryose. Ezekiyeli 37:26–28.
