Wanem Nao Truth Abaotem God?
Waswe, God really lovem iu?
Wanem nao olketa fasin bilong God? Waswe, hem garem nem?
Waswe, man savve fren gud witim God?
1, 2. Why nao plande taem hem gud for askem olketa kwestin?
IUMI savve hao hem wei bilong pikinini for askem staka kwestin. Plande start for askem olketa kwestin taem olketa start for toktok. Olketa savve askem olketa kwestin olsem: Wea nao sun hem go long naet? Wanem nao olketa laet long skae long naet? Hu nao teachim olketa bird for flae? Maet iu trae hard for givim ansa, bat plande taem hem no isi for ansarem kwestin bilong olketa. Nomata iu givim gudfala ansa, datwan savve mekem olketa for ask: Hao nao olsem?
2 Hem no olketa pikinini nomoa wea savve askem olketa kwestin. Taem iumi gohed for grow, iumi askem olketa kwestin tu. Iumi duim diswan for savve long wea nao for go, wanem nao olketa danger iumi need for stap klia long hem, and for mekem iumi savve long samting wea iumi interest long hem. Bat luk olsem plande pipol stop for askem olketa kwestin, especially olketa barava important kwestin, or maet olketa stop for lukaotem olketa ansa tu.
3. Why nao plande pipol stop for trae faendem ansa for olketa kwestin wea barava important?
3 Ting raonem kwestin long kava bilong disfala buk, olketa kwestin long introduction, or olketa kwestin long start bilong disfala chapter. Olketa kwestin olsem, olketa moa important winim olketa nara kwestin wea iu savve askem. Nomata olsem, plande pipol givap for trae kasem ansa for olketa. Why nao olsem? Waswe, Bible garem olketa ansa hia? Samfala sei olketa ansa long Bible hard tumas for minim. Olketa narawan wari nogud wei for askem olketa kwestin bae mekem olketa feel shame. And samfala disaedem hao olketa leader and bigman bilong church nao only wan wea savve ansarem olketa kwestin olsem. Hao nao tingting bilong iu?
4, 5. Wanem nao samfala kwestin for askem wea moa important winim olketa nara kwestin, and why nao iumi shud lukaotem ansa for olketa?
4 For sure, iu bae interest for savve long ansa for olketa main important kwestin wea man savve tingim. Maet samfala taem iu ting raonem olketa samting and laek for savve: ‘Why nao iumi laef? Waswe, hem for born, laef for lelebet taem, and then dae? Wanem nao olketa fasin bilong God?’ Hem gud for askem olketa kwestin olsem, and hem important for no givap for trae faendem ansa go kasem taem wea iu faendem ansa wea iu fit for trustim and wea mekem iu satisfae. Datfala teacher wea staka savve long hem, Jesus Christ, hem sei: “Gohed for ask, and iufala bae kasem; gohed for lukaotem, and iufala bae faendem; gohed for noknok, and bae hem open for iufala.”—Matthew 7:7.
5 Sapos iu “gohed for lukaotem” ansa for olketa important kwestin, iu bae faendem olketa ansa hia. (Proverbs 2:1-5) Nomata sapos olketa narawan talem iu hem iusles for lukaotem olketa ansa, olketa ansa stap, and iu savve faendem olketa insaed long Bible. Olketa ansa no hard tumas for minim, and olketa savve mekem man hapi and givim hem hope. Olketa savve helpem iu for mekem laef bilong iu distaem hem samting wea iu satisfae long hem. Firstaem, iumi storyim wanfala kwestin wea mekem staka pipol konfius.
WASWE, GOD LOVEM IUMI?
6. Why nao plande pipol tingse God hem no lovem iumi?
6 Long tingting bilong staka pipol, ansa hem nomoa. Olketa sei: ‘Sapos God hem lovem iumi world bae no garem olketa problem.’ Iumi lukim hao staka war, fasin for heit, and wei for safa hem gohed long world distaem. Iumi wanwan savve sik, safa, or barava sorre from fren or famili member bilong iumi hem dae. Dastawe plande savve talem olsem: ‘Sapos God hem lovem iumi and tingim olketa problem wea iumi garem, hem bae no letem olketa samting olsem for happen!’
7. (a) Hao nao olketa bigman bilong religion mekem plande pipol for tingse God no lovem pipol? (b) Wanem nao really samting wea Bible hem teachim abaotem olketa hard taem wea iumi kasem?
7 Samting wea barava nogud, hem hao samfala taem, olketa bigman bilong religion nao mekem pipol tingse God no lovem iumi. Hao nao olsem? Taem seknomoa barava nogud samting kasem pipol, olketa bigman hia sei datwan hem will bilong God. So olketa blamem God nao for olketa nogud samting wea happen. Waswe, samting olketa talem hem tru? Wanem nao really samting wea Bible teachim? James 1:13 hem sei: “Taem man hem kasem test, hem no fit for sei, ‘God nao testim mi.’ From man no savve testim God witim nogud samting and God tu no testim eniwan.” So no enitaem nao God hem kosim olketa nogud samting wea iumi lukim long world for happen. (Job 34:10-12) Hem tru, hem letem olketa nogud samting for happen. Bat wei for letem samting happen, hem barava difren from wei for kosim datwan.
8, 9. (a) Wanem example nao hem showim hao wei for letem wicked fasin gohed hem difren from wei for kosim datwan? (b) Why nao hem no stret for sei God hem rong for letem olketa man duim olketa nogud samting?
8 Olsem example, tingim wanfala wise and loving Dadi wea son bilong hem wea big finis still stap long haos. Taem son hem start for bighed and disaed for lusim famili, dadi no stopem hem. Son bilong hem aftarem olketa nogud samting, and gogo, hem kasem trabol nao. Waswe, dadi nao kosim olketa problem wea son kasem? Nomoa. (Luke 15:11-13) Long sem wei, God no stopem olketa man taem olketa chus for duim nogud samting, bat hem no kosim olketa problem wea kamaot from datwan tu. So bae hem no stret for blamem God for trabol wea olketa man kasem.
9 God garem olketa gudfala reason for letem olketa man duim olketa nogud samting. From hem Creator bilong iumi wea wise and garem bigfala paoa, hem no need for explainim long iumi olketa reason for why hem duim samting. Bat from hem lovem iumi, hem explainim diswan. Bae iu lanem moa samting abaotem olketa reason hia long Chapter 11. Bat iumi savve trustim hao God no mekem iumi kasem olketa problem hia. Samting hem duim nao, hem givim iumi only hope wea iumi savve depend long hem for finisim olketa nogud samting hia!—Isaiah 33:2.
10. Why nao iumi savve sure God bae finisim evri samting wea kamaot from nogud samting wea olketa man duim?
10 Nara samting for tingim tu, hem wei wea God hem holy. (Isaiah 6:3) Diswan minim hem barava klin. Hem nating savve duim or tingim samting wea nogud. So iumi savve barava trustim hem. Bat iumi no savve trustim olketa man bikos samfala taem olketa duim samting wea no stret. Nomata man wea garem paoa hem savve barava honest, bat plande taem hem no garem paoa for stretem olketa nogud samting wea kamaot from wanem wicked pipol duim. Bat God garem moa paoa winim eniwan. Hem savve stretem bak olketa nogud samting wea kamaot from wicked fasin. Taem God duim samting for stretem diswan, hem bae duim diswan long wei wea bae finisim nogud samting for olowe!—Psalm 37:9-11.
HAO NAO TINGTING BILONG GOD ABAOTEM OLKETA SAMTING WEA NO STRET?
11. (a) Hao nao tingting bilong God abaotem olketa samting wea no stret? (b) Hao nao tingting bilong hem abaotem olketa hard taem wea iu kasem?
11 Go kasem datfala taem, hao nao tingting bilong God abaotem samting wea gohed long world and long laef bilong iu? First samting, Bible teachim hao God hem “lovem justice.” (Psalm 37:28) So hem barava ting strong long standard bilong hem saed long wanem hem stret and wanem hem no stret. Hem heitim evri wei wea no stret. Bible hem sei ‘heart bilong God hem feel sorre’ taem world hem fulap witim pipol wea duim nogud samting bifor. (Genesis 6:5, 6) God hem no change. (Malachi 3:6) Hem still barava no laek for lukim wei wea pipol long world distaem olketa safa. Bible hem sei: ‘Hem lovem iu.’—1 Peter 5:7.
12, 13. (a) Why nao iumi garem olketa gudfala fasin olsem love, and diswan mekem iumi ting hao long samting wea happen long world? (b) Why nao iu savve sure God bae barava stretem olketa problem long world?
12 Hao nao iumi savve sure God barava no laek for lukim man safa? Tingim diswan. Bible teachim hao God wakem man long image bilong hem. (Genesis 1:26) So iumi garem olketa gudfala fasin bikos God hem garem olketa gudfala fasin. Olsem example, waswe, iu feel nogud taem iu lukim gudfala pipol safa? Sapos iu feel nogud long olketa samting olsem wea no stret, iu savve sure hao God hem barava feel nogud.
13 Wanfala barava best samting abaotem iumi olketa man, hem wei wea iumi savve showimaot love. Diswan tu showimaot hao God wakem iumi long image bilong hem. Bible teachim iumi hao “God hem love.” (1 John 4:8) Iumi showimaot love bikos God showimaot love. Waswe, love bae muvim iu for finisim wei for safa and olketa samting wea no stret long disfala world sapos iu garem paoa for duim datwan? For sure iu bae duim datwan! Sapos olsem, iu savve sure tu hao God bae finisim wei for safa and olketa samting wea no stret. Olketa promis long introduction bilong disfala buk, hem no olketa false hope nomoa. God bae duim samting wea hem promis for duim! Bat for iu garem faith long olketa promis hia, iu need for savve long moa samting abaotem God wea talem olketa promis olsem.
GOD LAEKEM IU FOR SAVVE LONG HEM
14. Hu nao nem bilong God, and why nao iumi shud iusim datwan?
14 Sapos iu laekem samwan for savve long iu, wanem nao bae iu duim? Iu bae talem hem nem bilong iu. Waswe, God garem nem tu? Plande religion sei nem bilong hem “God” or “Lord,” bat datwan no nem bilong God. “Lord” and “God” hem olketa title, olsem “king” and “prime minister” hem olketa title. Bible teachim iumi hao God garem plande title. “God” and “Lord” nao tufala long olketa title bilong hem. Bat Bible teachim tu hao God garem nem: Jehovah. Psalm 83:18 hem sei: “Iu, wea nem bilong iu Jehovah, iu nomoa Most Hae ovarem full earth.” Sapos Bible bilong iu no garem datfala nem insaed, iu savve readim Appendix wea garem title “Mining Bilong Nem Bilong God and Wei for Iusim Datwan” bilong disfala buk for lanem why nao datwan hem olsem. Tru samting nao hem hao nem bilong God hem stap plande thousand taem insaed olketa barava old copy bilong Bible. So Jehovah laekem iu for savve long nem bilong hem and for iusim datwan. Hem iusim Bible for talem iumi abaotem hemseleva.
15. Wanem nao datfala nem Jehovah hem minim?
15 God givim hemseleva wanfala nem wea garem bigfala mining. Nem bilong hem, Jehovah, minim hem savve duim eni samting wea hem promis for duim or wea hem plan for duim. * No eni nara nem garem sem mining olsem nem bilong hem. God nomoa fit for garem datfala nem. Long plande wei, Jehovah hem difren from evri narawan. Hao nao olsem?
16, 17. Wanem nao iumi lanem abaotem Jehovah from olketa title hia: (a) “Olmaeti wan”? (b) “King bilong olowe”? (c) “Creator”?
16 Iumi lukim finis hao Psalm 83:18 sei olsem abaotem Jehovah: “Iu nomoa Most Hae.” Olsem tu, Bible kolem Jehovah nomoa “datfala Olmaeti.” Revelation 15:3 hem sei: “Jehovah God, Olmaeti, olketa waka bilong iu barava nambawan. Olketa wei bilong iu raeteous and tru, King bilong olowe.” Datfala title “Olmaeti” teachim iumi hao no eniwan garem moa paoa winim Jehovah. And datfala title “King bilong olowe” remindim iumi hao Jehovah hem spesol and difren long nara wei tu. Evri nara samting wea laef garem start, bat no Jehovah. Psalm 90:2 hem sei: “From taem olowe go kasem taem olowe, iu nao God.” Datwan hem barava mekem iumi tinghae long hem!
17 Nara samting wea mekem Jehovah hem difren, hem wei wea hem nomoa Creator. Revelation 4:11 hem sei: “Iu nao fit, Jehovah, God bilong mifala, for kasem glory and honor and paoa, from iu creatim evri samting, and from will bilong iu nao evri samting hia stap and kamap.” Evri samting, olsem olketa angel long heven wea iumi no savve lukim, staka thousand star long skae, olketa naes frut wea grow, and olketa fish long sea and olketa river, Jehovah nao Man wea creatim olketa!
WASWE, IU SAVVE FREN GUD WITIM JEHOVAH?
18. Why nao samfala pipol tingse olketa bae nating savve fren gud witim God, bat wanem nao Bible hem sei?
18 Taem samfala read abaotem olketa nambawan fasin bilong Jehovah, hem mekem olketa no sure sapos olketa bae fit for fren witim God. Bat waswe, tingting olsem hem stret? Bible sei olsem abaotem Jehovah: “Hem no farawe from eniwan long iumi.” (Acts 17:27) And tu, Bible hem sei: ‘Fren gud witim God, and hem bae fren gud witim iu.’—James 4:8.
19. (a) Hao nao iumi savve start for fren gud witim Jehovah, and wanem gud samting nao bae iumi kasem from datwan? (b) Olketa wanem fasin bilong God nao iu barava laekem?
19 Hao nao iu savve fren gud witim God? Firstaem, gohed for duim samting wea iu duim distaem, hem nao, for lane abaotem God. Jesus hem sei: “For kasem laef olowe, olketa mas kasem savve abaotem iu, datfala only tru God, and abaotem datwan wea iu sendem kam, Jesus Christ.” (John 17:3) Tru nao, Bible teachim iumi hao wei for lane abaotem Jehovah and Jesus savve mekem man kasem “laef olowe”! Olsem iumi storyim finis, “God hem love.” (1 John 4:16) Jehovah garem olketa nara barava naesfala fasin tu. Olsem example, Bible hem sei Jehovah hem “God wea garem mercy and kaenfala fasin, slow for kros, garem bigfala loving-kaeness, and barava tru evritaem.” (Exodus 34:6) Hem “gud and redi for forgive.” (Psalm 86:5) God hem patient. (2 Peter 3:9) Hem loyal. (Revelation 15:4) Taem iu read go moa insaed Bible, bae iu lukim hao Jehovah showimaot hem garem olketa fasin hia, and tu, plande nara fasin wea naes tumas.
20-22. (a) Waswe, wei wea iumi no savve lukim God mekem hem hard for iumi fren gud witim hem? Explainim hao nao olsem. (b) Wanem nao maet olketa narawan sei iu no need for duim, bat wanem nao iu shud duim?
20 Hem tru, iu no savve lukim God from hem wanfala spirit. (John 1:18; 4:24; 1 Timothy 1:17) Bat taem iu iusim Bible for lane abaotem hem, gogo bae iu savve gud long hem. Olsem datfala man for raetem psalm hem sei, iu savve “lukim olketa naesfala samting abaotem Jehovah.” (Psalm 27:4; Romans 1:20) Taem iu gohed for lanem moa samting abaotem Jehovah, bae iu barava savve gud long hem, and garem plande reason for lovem and fren gud witim hem.
21 Iu bae isisi start for minim why Bible hem teachim iumi for ting long Jehovah olsem Dadi bilong iumi. (Matthew 6:9) Hem givim iumi laef, bat tu, olsem eni dadi, hem laekem iumi for garem barava gudfala laef. (Psalm 36:9) Bible teachim tu hao God savve ting long man olsem fren bilong hem. (James 2:23) Tingim datwan—iu savve kamap fren bilong Creator bilong universe!
22 Taem iu gohed for lanem moa samting from Bible, maet iu lukim hao samfala wea no savve long why hem important for studyim Bible bae talem iu hao iu no need for duim datwan. Maet olketa wari nogud iu changem biliv bilong iu. Bat no letem eniwan stopem iu for garem wei for fren witim God, wea datwan hem spesol winim eni nara wei for fren wea iu savve garem.
23, 24. (a) Why nao iu shud gohed for askem olketa kwestin abaotem samting wea iu lanem? (b) Wanem nao next chapter bae storyim?
23 Hem tru, maet firstaem iu no minim samfala samting wea iu studyim. Maet iu need for hambol and ask for help, bat no hol bak from iu feel shame. Jesus sei hem gud for hambol, olsem wanfala pikinini. (Matthew 18:2-4) And iumi evriwan savve hao hem wei bilong pikinini for askem staka kwestin. God laekem iu for kasem olketa ansa. Bible hem praisem samfala wea barava interest for lane abaotem God. Olketa chekim gud olketa scripture for mek sure samting olketa lanem hem tru.—Acts 17:11.
24 Best wei for lane abaotem Jehovah hem for studyim gud Bible. Hem difren from evri nara buk. Long wanem wei? Next chapter bae storyim diswan.

Moses hem ansa olsem: ‘Bat waswe sapos olketa no bilivim mi taem mi sei iu nao sendem mi?’
God askem hem: ‘Wanem nao long hand bilong iu?’
Moses ansa: ‘Wanfala stik.’
God hem sei: ‘Torowem long graon.’ And taem Moses duim diswan, stik hia hem kamap wanfala snek. Then Jehovah showim narafala mirakol long Moses. Hem sei: ‘Putim hand bilong iu insaed long kaleko bilong iu.’ Moses hem duim, and taem hem aotem hand bilong hem, hand bilong hem white olsem snow nao! Hem luk olsem hand bilong hem garem nogud sik leprosy. Then Jehovah givim paoa long Moses for duim mek-thri mirakol. Bihaen hem sei: ‘Taem iu duim olketa mirakol hia olketa Israelite bae bilivim hao mi nao sendem iu.’
Bihaen long datwan Moses go long haos and sei long Jeth′ro: ‘Plis letem mi go bak long olketa wantok bilong mi long Egypt for lukim hao nao olketa stap.’ So Jeth′ro sei gudbae long Moses, and Moses startim longfala wakabaot go bak long Egypt.

Luk 7:1-50
7 Taim Jisas i autim pinis ol tok em i laik mekim long ol manmeri, em i go insait long Kaperneam.2 I gat wanpela ofisa bilong ami* i stap, na wokboi bilong en i sik nogut tru na em i laik i dai. Em i laikim tumas dispela wokboi,3 olsem na taim em i harim tok long Jisas i stap, em i salim ol hetman bilong ol Juda i go long Jisas na askim em long kam na oraitim wokboi bilong em.4 Na ol i kamap long Jisas na askim em strong olsem: “Em i gutpela man inap long yu ken helpim em,5 em i save laikim lain bilong yumi na em i bin wokim sinagog long hia.”6 Orait Jisas i go wantaim ol. Tasol taim em i kamap klostu long haus, ofisa bilong ami i salim pinis sampela pren i go bilong tokim em olsem: “Bikman, maski long hatwok, mi no gutpela man inap long yu ken i kam long haus bilong mi.7 Olsem na long dispela as mi no kam long yu.

Yupela i go bilong lukim wanpela pitpit em win i sakim?25 Sapos nogat, orait yupela i go bilong lukim wanem samting? Yupela i go bilong lukim wanpela man i werim gutpela klos? Ol man i werim ol naispela klos na ol i gat ol gutpela gutpela samting, ol i save stap long haus bilong ol king.26 Orait yupela i go bilong lukim wanem samting? Bilong lukim wanpela profet? Em tasol.

Stretem Problem Witim Narawan
“Stap gud witim narawan.”—MARK 9:50.
SONG: 39, 77
1, 2. Hu nao samfala wea Bible buk Genesis storyim wea garem problem witim narawan, and wanem nao iumi savve lanem from olketa story hia?
BIBLE story abaotem samfala wea garem problem witim narawan. Tingim samfala example long Bible buk Genesis. Cain hem killim dae Abel. (Gen. 4:3-8) Lamech killim dae wanfala young man wea hitim hem. (Gen. 4:23) Olketa man wea lukaftarem sheepsheep bilong Abraham raoa witim olketa man wea lukaftarem sheepsheep bilong Lot. (Gen. 13:5-7) Hagar hem ting daonem Sarah, and Sarah hem kros long Abraham. (Gen. 16:3-6) Ishmael raoa witim evri pipol and evriwan les long Ishmael. (Gen. 16:12) Evri story hia insaed first 16-fala chapter long Genesis nomoa!
2 Why nao Bible garem olketa story olsem? Wanfala reason hem bikos iumi savve lane from example bilong olketa hia wea no perfect wea garem problem witim narawan. Iumi tu no perfect, so taem iumi garem problem witim narawan, olketa gudfala example insaed Bible savve helpem iumi for savve wanem for duim, and olketa nogud example savve helpem iumi for savve wanem for no duim. (Rome 15:4) Diswan savve helpem iumi for gohed stap gud witim olketa narawan.
3. Wanem nao bae iumi storyim long disfala study?
3 Long disfala study, bae iumi storyim why iumi mas stretem problem witim narawan, and hao iumi savve duim datwan. Bae iumi lanem tu samfala Bible principle wea savve helpem iumi long diswan mekem iumi savve stap gud witim nara pipol, and fren gud witim Jehovah.
WHY IUMI MAS STRETEM PROBLEM WEA IUMI GAREM WITIM NARAWAN
4. Wanem tingting nao staka pipol garem distaem, and wanem nao kamaot from datwan?
4 Satan nao bihaenem wei wea staka pipol distaem divaed and no stap gud tugeta. Why nao iumi sei olsem? Long Eden, Satan sei iumi no needim God for talem iumi wanem hem stret and wanem hem no stret. Hem sei iumi savve disaedem datwan seleva. (Gen. 3:1-5) Bat evri samting wea gohed long world distaem showimaot kaen tingting olsem hem mekem staka problem kamap. Long tingting bilong staka pipol distaem, olketa garem raet for disaedem seleva wanem hem stret and wanem hem no stret. Olketa praod, selfish, and laek winim narawan, and no tingim feeling bilong narawan. Kaen tingting olsem savve mekem pipol raoa witim each other. Bible sei sapos iumi garem wei for kros kwiktaem, bae iumi evritaem raoa witim narawan and duim staka sin.—Prov. 29:22.
5. Wanem nao Jesus sei man mas duim for stap gud witim narawan?
5 Long Sermon long Maunten, Jesus talem olketa disaepol hem barava important for olketa mas waka hard for stap gud witim narawan. Olsem example, hem talem olketa for hambol, no raoa and stap gud witim narawan, no gohed for kros, kwiktaem stretem eni problem, and lovem olketa enemy.—Matt. 5:5, 9, 22, 25, 44.
6, 7. (a) Why nao hem important for kwiktaem stretem problem witim narawan? (b) Wanem nao samfala kwestin wea hem gud for iumi evriwan ting raonem?
6 Olketa samting wea iumi duim for worshipim God, olsem wei for prea, preaching waka, and for attendim olketa meeting, bae iusles sapos iumi no stretem problem wea iumi garem witim olketa brata and sista bilong iumi. (Mark 11:25) Sapos iumi laekem Jehovah for hapi long iumi, iumi mas forgivim olketa wea mekem iumi feel nogud. —Readim Luke 11:4; Ephesus 4:32.
7 Jehovah sei pipol bilong hem mas willing for forgivim narawan and stap gud witim each other. Ting raonem tufala kwestin hia: ‘Waswe, mi willing for forgivim olketa brata and sista bilong mi? Waswe, mi hapi for associate witim olketa?’ Sapos iu luksavve wei for no forgivim narawan hem wanfala wik point bilong iu, prea long Jehovah and askem hem for helpem iu. Dadi bilong iumi long heven bae ansarem prea bilong iu.—1 John 5:14, 15.
WASWE, HEM SAMTING WEA IUMI SAVVE FORGETIM NOMOA?
8, 9. Wanem nao iumi mas duim sapos eniwan mekem iumi feel nogud?
8 Iumi evriwan no perfect so bae samfala taem pipol talem or duim samfala samting wea mekem iumi feel nogud. (Eccl. 7:20; Matt. 18:7) Wanem nao bae iu duim sapos samting olsem happen long iu? Tingim disfala experience: Long wanfala hapitaem, wanfala sista talem wanfala toktok long tufala brata. Bat wanfala long tufala no hapi long wanem sista hia talem, and taem sista lusim tufala, hem talem feeling bilong hem long nara brata. Bat nara brata hia storyim wei wea datfala sista hem faithful long Jehovah for 40 year nomata hem kasem staka hard taem. Hem sei hem no tingse datfala sista min for spoelem feeling bilong datfala brata. Wanem nao brata wea feel nogud hem duim? Hem sei: “Iu tok tru.” Then hem disaed for forgetim nomoa samting wea happen.
9 Wanem nao iumi lanem from disfala experience? Iumi seleva nao savve disaed sapos iumi bae letem samting wea narawan talem or duim for mekem iumi feel nogud. Man wea showimaot love bae hem willing for forgivim narawan. (Readim Proverbs 10:12; 1 Peter 4:8.) Jehovah hem hapi tumas taem iumi forgivim narawan. (Prov. 19:11; Eccl. 7:9) So sapos eniwan talem or duim samting wea mekem iumi feel nogud, tingim diswan: ‘Waswe, hem samting wea mi shud gohed tingim? Or waswe, hem samting wea mi savve forgetim nomoa?’
10. (a) Wanem nao wanfala sista duim taem samfala talem nogud samting abaotem hem? (b) Wanem nao helpem hem for no gohed feel nogud long olketa?
10 Taem olketa narawan talem nogud samting abaotem iumi, maet datwan hem hard samting for deal witim. Tingim wanfala pioneer sista, wea iumi bae kolem hem Lucy. Samfala long kongregeson talem nogud samting abaotem wei wea hem duim pioneer waka bilong hem. Lucy barava feel nogud and askem samfala mature brata for advaes. Wanem nao happen? Lucy sei olketa showim hem samfala scripture wea helpem hem for no tingim tumas nogud toktok wea olketa narawan talem, bat for luksavve tingting bilong Jehovah nao hem important. Taem hem readim Matthew 6:1-4, datwan encouragem hem. (Readim.) Olketa verse hia helpem hem for luksavve main samting nao hem for mekem Jehovah hapi. So hem disaed for forgetim nomoa nogud toktok bilong olketa narawan. Distaem, Lucy hem hapi bikos hem savve hem duim best bilong hem for mekem Jehovah hapi, and bae hem no wari sapos eniwan talem nogud samting abaotem hem.
PROBLEM WEA IUMI MAS STRETEM WITIM NARAWAN
11, 12. (a) Wanem nao iumi shud duim sapos iumi luksavve brata or sista bilong iumi ‘feel nogud long iumi’? (b) Wanem nao iumi savve lanem from samting wea Abraham duim for stretem wanfala problem? (Lukim piksa long start bilong study.)
11 “Iumi evriwan savve sin staka taem.” (Jas. 3:2) Sapos iu savve wanfala brata or sista feel nogud long samting wea iu talem or duim, wanem nao iu shud duim? Jesus sei: “Tingim sapos iu tekem sakrifaes bilong iu go long altar. Waswe sapos taem iu kasem long there iu tingim hao brata bilong iu hem feel nogud long iu? Firstaem, leavim sakrifaes bilong iu long there and go stretem datfala problem witim brata bilong iu. Bihaen, go bak moa long altar and givim datfala sakrifaes.” (Matt. 5:23, 24) Jesus sei iu mas go story witim brata bilong iu. Goal bilong iu hem for stretem datfala problem witim hem. Iu shud talemaot mistek bilong iu and no sei hem nao rong. For stap gud witim olketa brata and sista nao hem barava important.
12 Bible showim wanem pipol bilong God savve duim for stretem problem wea kamap midolwan olketa. Olsem example, Abraham and nephew bilong hem Lot, garem staka animal gogo olketa wakaman bilong tufala start for raoa bikos ples bilong olketa no fitim nao evri animal for stap. From Abraham laek for stap gud witim Lot, hem letem Lot nao for chusim firstaem wea hem laek for stap. (Gen. 13:1, 2, 5-9) Hem showimaot gudfala example! Waswe, Abraham no kasem eni gud samting from hem duim datwan? Nomoa. Stretawe bihaen Abraham duim datwan, Jehovah promis for givim hem staka blessing. (Gen. 13:14-17) Wanem nao iumi lanem from datwan? Nomata sapos iumi mas lusim samfala samting, taem iumi followim olketa Bible principle and stretem problem wea iumi garem witim narawan, Jehovah bae blessim iumi. [1]
13. Wanem nao wanfala overseer duim taem wanfala brata tok kros long hem, and wanem nao iumi lanem from datwan?
13 Tingim nara example. Wanfala brata wea kasem assignment for lukaftarem wanfala department long convention hem ringim nara brata for askem hem for waka long datfala department. Datfala brata tok kros long hem and then hem daonem phone bikos hem kros yet long brata wea overseer long datfala department bifor. Niu overseer hia hem no feel nogud. Nomata olsem, hem luksavve hem mas stretem datfala problem. Bihaen wanfala hour, hem ringim bak datfala brata and askem hem for tufala meet and story. Wan week bihaen, tufala meet long Kingdom Hall, and bihaen tufala prea long Jehovah, tufala story for wanfala full hour. Datfala brata storyim samting wea happen long hem. Datfala niu overseer lisin long hem and showim hem samfala scripture. Bihaen datwan, tufala hapi and waka tugeta long convention. Datfala brata hem tinghae long wei wea overseer hia hem kaen and story gud long hem.
WASWE, IU SHUD STORYIM DATFALA PROBLEM LONG OLKETA ELDER?
14, 15. (a) Wanem taem nao iumi shud followim kaonsel bilong Jesus long Matthew 18:15-17? (b) Wanem nao 3-fala samting wea Jesus talem iumi for duim, and why nao hem talem datwan?
14 Taem problem kamap midolwan tufala Christian, hem gud sapos tufala seleva nao stretem. Bat samfala taem maet tufala needim help from olketa narawan long kongregeson for stretem problem. (Readim Matthew 18:15-17.) “Sin” wea Jesus storyim long scripture hia hem no minim olketa smol problem wea happen midolwan tufala Christian. Hao nao iumi savve long datwan? Jesus sei sapos man wea duim sin hem no repent bihaen hem story witim brata bilong hem, and witim tu or thrifala witness, and long olketa elder, then kongregeson bae “ting long hem olsem wanfala man long world and wanfala man for tekem tax.” Datwan minim hem bae disfellowship. Datfala “sin” wea Jesus storyim maet hem wei for ravem narawan or laea for spoelem narawan. Hem no minim olketa sin olsem adultery, wei for man sleep witim man or woman sleep witim woman, wei for apostate, or wei for worshipim idol. Olketa elder nao mas deal witim eniwan wea duim olketa sin hia.
15 Why Jesus talem datfala toktok hem bikos hem laekem iumi for helpem brata bilong iumi from iumi lovem hem. (Matt. 18:12-14) Wanem nao Jesus talem iumi for duim? (1) Iu and datfala brata seleva nao iutufala shud trae for stretem datfala problem. Maet iu mas story witim hem tu-thri taem. Bat wanem nao iu shud duim sapos hem no laek for stretem datfala problem? (2) Iu shud tekem nara brata wea savve long rong samting wea brata hia duim, or wea hem fit for luksavve sapos brata hia duim rong samting or nomoa. Sapos iufala stretem datfala problem, “iu helpem hem nao for duim stret samting moa.” Bat sapos iu story witim brata bilong iu tu-thri taem, and iutufala no savve stretem datfala problem, then (3) iu shud storyim datfala problem long olketa elder.
16. Why nao kaonsel wea Jesus talem hem gudfala advaes for stretem problem witim narawan?
16 Staka taem olketa Christian wea garem problem witim each other no need for duim mek-thri samting wea Jesus talem long Matthew 18:15-17. Datwan hem gud tumas, bikos diswan showimaot man wea duim rong samting hem luksavve long datwan and hem stretem datwan. So hem no need for disfellowship, and brata wea feel nogud shud forgivim hem and tufala savve stap gud moa. So kaonsel bilong Jesus showimaot iumi no need for kwiktaem go storyim long olketa elder eni problem wea iumi garem witim narawan. Bat iumi savve storyim datfala problem long olketa elder only sapos iumi duim finis nara tufala samting wea Jesus storyim, and sapos iumi savve pruvim datfala brata or sista hem duim rong samting.
17. Olketa wanem blessing nao iumi savve kasem taem iumi traem best for stap gud witim narawan?
17 From iumi evriwan no perfect, samfala taem iumi bae spoelem feeling bilong narawan. Dastawe disaepol James sei: “Sapos eniwan hem no sin long toktok bilong hem, hem wanfala perfect man wea savve kontrolem full body bilong hem tu.” (Jas. 3:2) Sapos iumi “traem best for stap gud witim nara pipol,” datwan bae helpem iumi for stretem problem wea iumi garem witim olketa. (Ps. 34:14) Datwan bae helpem iumi tu for fren gud witim olketa brata and sista, and diswan bae mekem iumi wan mind. (Ps. 133:1-3) And important samting nao, iumi bae fren gud witim Jehovah, datfala “God wea givim peace.” (Rome 15:33) Iumi bae kasem olketa blessing hia, taem iumi stretem problem witim narawan from iumi lovem hem.
^ [1] (paragraf 12) Samfala narawan wea stretem problem bilong olketa hem Jacob and Esau (Gen. 27:41-45; 33:1-11), Joseph and olketa brata bilong hem (Gen. 45:1-15), and Gideon and olketa Ephraimite. (Judg. 8:1-3) Maet iu savve tingim samfala nara example long Bible.

KAVA SUBJECT | WANEM NAO BIBLE TALEM ABAOTEM OLKETA ANGEL?
Truth Abaotem Olketa Angel
Waswe, iu laek for savve long truth abaotem olketa angel? Olsem example, hu nao olketa, hu nao wakem olketa, and wanem nao olketa duim? Iu savve faendem ansa for olketa kwestin hia long Bible bikos hem nomoa storyim truth abaotem olketa angel. (2 Timothy 3:16) Wanem nao Bible sei abaotem olketa angel?
God hem Spirit, and olketa angel tu spirit olsem hem. Iumi no savve lukim olketa from olketa ‘no garem body olsem iumi olketa man.’ Olketa faithful angel wea stap long heven savve lukim God and story witim hem.—Luke 24:39; Matthew 18:10; John 4:24.
Samfala taem olketa angel savve change for kamap man mekem olketa kam long earth for duim waka wea God askem olketa for duim. Bihaen, olketa change for kamap spirit moa and go bak long heven.—Judges 6:11-23; 13:15-20.
Olketa story long Bible showimaot olketa angel wea samfala pipol bifor lukim hem olketa man angel. Nomata olsem, God no wakem olketa man angel and woman angel and for olketa marit and garem pikinini. And tu, olketa angel no stap long earth firstaem olsem man then bihaen olketa dae, olketa kamap angel long heven. Jehovah nao wakem olketa angel dastawe Bible sei “olketa son bilong trufala God.”—Job 1:6; Psalm 148:2, 5.

Taem Bible sei namba bilong olketa angel hem ten thousand taems ten thousand, datwan showimaot maet staka billion angel nao stap long heven.—Daniel 7:10; Revelation 5:11.
Olketa angel “barava strong” and savve bilong olketa hem winim olketa man. Olketa savve flae fast tumas winim wanem iumi olketa man savve tingim.—Psalm 103:20; Daniel 9:20-23.
Nomata olketa angel barava strong and garem bigfala savve, olketa garem spialaen, and olketa no savve tu long samfala samting.—Matthew 24:36; 1 Peter 1:12.
Evri angel wei bilong olketa no semsem, olketa savve showimaot olketa wei bilong God, and olketa savve disaed seleva. So olketa savve chus for duim stret samting or samting wea no stret. Bat, sorre samting, samfala angel chus for againstim God.—Jude 6.

PLANDE year go pas—10 year, 20 year, 30 year, 39 year! And olketa Israelite still stap long wilderness. Bat long evri year hia, Jehovah hem lukaftarem pipol bilong hem. Hem feedim olketa witim manna. Hem leadim olketa long daytaem witim wanfala cloud, and long naetaem witim fire. And insaed long evri year hia kaleko bilong olketa no brek and leg bilong olketa no garem soa.

Olketa pipol no savve faendem eni wata. So olketa komplen long Moses: ‘Hem moabeta sapos mifala dae finis. Why nao iu bringim mifala aot from Egypt long disfala rabis ples wea no eni samting savve grow? No eni wheat, fig, grape, or pomegranate. No eni wata tu for drink.’
Taem Moses and Aaron go long tabernacle for prea, Jehovah talem Moses: ‘Hipimap olketa pipol tugeta. Then front long evriwan, tok long datfala ston long there. Inaf wata bae kamaot for olketa pipol and evri animal bilong olketa.’
So Moses hipimap olketa pipol, and sei: ‘Lisin, iufala wea nating trustim God! Waswe, mitufala Aaron mas aotem wata from disfala ston for iufala?’ Then Moses hitim ston hia witim wanfala stik tufala taem and bigfala wata kamaot from datfala ston. Inaf wata hem kamaot for evri pipol and animal for drinkim.

SAPTA 3
I Gat Wanem As na God i Wokim Dispela Graun?
I gat wanem as na God i wokim ol manmeri?
Ol i bin sutim wanem tok long God?
Bai yumi gat wanem kain sindaun long graun long bihain?
SAMTING God bai mekim long dispela graun i gutpela tru. Jehova i laik bai graun i pulap long ol manmeri i stap amamas, na ol i no gat sik. Baibel i tok, “Bikpela i wokim wanpela gaden i stap long Iden” na em i “mekim graun i kamapim ol kain kain diwai, pikinini bilong ol i gutpela long kaikai. Olgeta dispela diwai i naispela tru.” Bihain long God i bin wokim namba wan man na meri, Adam tupela Iv, Em i putim ol long dispela gutpela ples na tokim ol: “Yupela i mas kamap planti na i go sindaun long olgeta hap bilong graun na bosim olgeta samting i stap long en.” (Stat 1:28; 2:8, 9, 15) Olsem na God i laik bai ol manmeri i karim ol pikinini, skruim Paradais i go long olgeta hap bilong graun, na lukautim ol animal.
2 Yu ting laik bilong God Jehova olsem ol manmeri bai stap long wanpela paradais long graun bai kamap tru? God i tok: “Mi tok pinis long mekim dispela ol samting, na bai mi mekim ol i kamap olsem mi tok.” (Aisaia 46:9-11; 55:11) Yes, ol samting God i tingting pinis long mekim em bai mekim tru! Em i tok em i “no wokim graun bilong i stap nating. Nogat. Em i bin wokim bilong olgeta samting i ken i stap long en.” (Aisaia 45:18) God i laik bai wanem kain ol man i stap long graun? Na em i laik bai ol i stap hamas yia long en? Baibel i tok: “Ol stretpela man bai i kisim graun God i givim ol, na bai ol i stap oltaim long en.”—Song 37:29; KTH 21:3, 4.
3 Tru, dispela samting i no bin kamap yet. Ol manmeri i save sik na dai; ol i save pait tu na narapela i save kilim i dai narapela. Hevi i bin kamap. Tasol yumi no ken ting God i laik bai graun i stap olsem yumi lukim long nau! Wanem samting i bin kamap? Bilong wanem samting God i tingting pinis long mekim i no bin kamap? Wanpela buk ol man tasol i bin kamapim i no inap tokim yumi long dispela, long wanem, dispela hevi i kirap long heven.
WANPELA BIRUA I KAMAP
4 Namba wan buk bilong Baibel i stori long wanpela birua bilong God i kamap long gaden Iden. Baibel i tok em i olsem “snek,” tasol em i no wanpela animal nating tasol. Laspela buk bilong Baibel i tok em i dispela man “ol i kolim em Satan na…em i man bilong giamanim olgeta manmeri bilong graun.” Baibel i kolim em tu olsem “dispela snek bilong bipo yet.” (Stat 3:1; KTH 12:9) Dispela strongpela ensel, o strongpela spirit yumi no inap lukim, em i toktok long Iv long rot bilong snek, wankain olsem man i tromoi nek bilong em long maus bilong doli na i olsem doli i toktok. Dispela spirit i bin stap taim God i wokim graun bilong ol manmeri i ken stap long en.—Jop 38:4, 7.
5 Tasol olgeta samting Jehova i bin wokim i gutpela olgeta, olsem na husat i wokim “Satan”? Yumi ken tok, wanpela strongpela pikinini spirit bilong God i mekim em yet i kamap Satan. Olsem wanem dispela inap kamap? Long nau tu, wanpela man em bipo em i gutpela man na i no save giaman, em inap kamap stilman. Olsem wanem dispela inap kamap? Ating dispela man i larim ol tingting i no stret i kamap long bel bilong em. Sapos em i wok long tingting long en, dispela laik nogut inap kamap strong tru. Na taim rot i op, ating bai em i mekim ol samting nogut em i bin tingting long en.—Jems 1:13-15.
6 Dispela samting i bin kamap long Satan. Em i harim God i tokim Adam tupela Iv long kamapim ol pikinini na go sindaun long olgeta hap bilong graun. (Stat 1:27, 28) Ating Satan i tingting, ‘Olgeta dispela manmeri inap lotu long mi na i no long God!’ Olsem na tingting kranki i kamap long bel bilong em. Bihain, em i trikim Iv long rot bilong sutim ol tok giaman long God. (Stat 3:1-5) Olsem na em i kamap “Devil,” mining bilong dispela tok em “Man bilong bagarapim gutnem bilong narapela.” Na tu, em i kamap “Satan,” mining bilong dispela tok em “Birua.”
7 Long rot bilong pasin giaman na pasin trik, Satan i kirapim Adam tupela Iv long sakim tok bilong God. (Stat 2:17; 3:6) Olsem na bihain ol i dai, olsem God i bin tok ol bai dai sapos ol i sakim tok bilong em. (Stat 3:17-19) Adam i kamap man i no gutpela olgeta taim em i mekim sin, olsem na olgeta pikinini bilong em i kisim sin long em. (Rom 5:12) Yumi ken tok piksa long dispela samting long tin bilong wokim bret long en. Sapos tin i gat krungut long en, wanem samting bai kamap long olgeta wan wan bret ol i wokim long dispela tin? Olgeta bret bai gat krungut long en, olsem ol i no gutpela olgeta. Na olsem tasol, olgeta man i bin kisim “krungut” olsem sin bilong Adam. Long dispela as olgeta man i save go lapun na i dai.—Rom 3:23.
8 Taim Satan i kirapim Adam tupela Iv long mekim rong long God, em i kamapim pasin bilong bikhet long God. Em i sutim tok long pasin bilong Jehova long mekim wok bos. I olsem Satan i tok: ‘God i bos nogut. Em i save giaman na i no save givim ol gutpela samting long ol man i stap aninit long em. I no gat wok long God i bosim ol manmeri. Ol yet i ken makim wanem samting i gutpela na wanem samting i nogut. Na sapos mi bosim ol, ol bai stap gutpela moa.’ God bai mekim wanem long kain tok nogut olsem? Sampela i ting i gutpela moa sapos God i bin kilim i dai ol dispela bikhetman. Tasol yu ting dispela bai bekim ol tok Satan i bin sutim? Dispela bai kamapim klia olsem pasin bilong God long bosim ol man i stret?
9 Stretpela pasin bilong Jehova i gutpela olgeta, olsem na em i no inap kilim i dai wantu ol dispela bikhetman. Bilong bekim gut tok Satan i bin sutim na long kamapim olsem Satan em i man bilong giaman, em i ting sampela haptaim i mas lus pastaim. Olsem na God i ting inap sampela haptaim em bai larim ol man i stap aninit long strong bilong Satan na bosim wokabaut bilong ol yet. Sapta 11 bilong dispela buk bai skelim i gat wanem as na Jehova i mekim olsem, na bilong wanem em i bin larim longpela haptaim i lus paslain long em i stretim ol dispela bikpela tok. Tasol nau i gutpela long tingting long ol dispela askim: I stret Adam tupela Iv i bilip long Satan husat i no bin mekim wanpela gutpela samting long ol? Jehova i bin givim ol olgeta samting, olsem na i stret ol i ting em i man nogut bilong giaman? Sapos yu bin stap long dispela taim, bai yu mekim wanem?
10 Em i gutpela long tingim ol dispela askim, long wanem, ol i stret long yumi olgeta long nau tu. Em nau, yu gat rot long sapotim sait bilong Jehova na bekim tok Satan i bin sutim long em. Yu inap daun long Jehova olsem King bilong yu na helpim wok bilong soim olsem Satan em i man bilong giaman. (Song 73:28; Sindaun 27:11) Sori tru, sampela manmeri tasol namel long planti bilion manmeri i gat laik long mekim olsem. Dispela i kamapim wanpela bikpela askim olsem: Tru tru Baibel i tok olsem Satan i bosim dispela graun?
HUSAT I BOSIM DISPELA GRAUN?
11 Jisas i kliagut olsem Satan em i hetman i save bosim dispela graun. Long rot bilong wanpela mirakel, Satan i soim long Jisas “olgeta strongpela kantri bilong dispela graun wantaim ol gutpela samting bilong ol.” Satan i tok promis long Jisas olsem: “Sapos yu brukim skru na lotu long mi, orait bai mi givim yu dispela olgeta samting.” (Matyu 4:8, 9; Luk 4:5, 6) Tingim dispela. Sapos ol dispela gavman i no bilong Satan, yu ting dispela tok bilong Satan inap pulim Jisas? Nogat tru! Jisas i save ol dispela gavman bilong graun i bilong Satan. Sapos ol i no bilong Satan, Jisas bai tokaut olsem.
12 Jehova em i God i Gat Olgeta Strong, na Man Bilong Wokim heven na graun. (KTH 4:11) Tasol i no gat wanpela hap long Baibel i tok olsem God Jehova o Jisas Krais i bosim dispela graun. Jisas i tokaut stret olsem Satan em i “hetman i save bosim dispela graun.” (Jon 12:31; 14:30; 16:11) Baibel i tok Satan em i “giaman god bilong dispela graun.” (2 Korin 4:3, 4) Kristen aposel Jon i toktok long dispela birua, Satan, olsem: “Dispela graun olgeta em i stap aninit long strong bilong Satan.”—1 Jon 5:19.
GRAUN BILONG SATAN BAI PINIS OLSEM WANEM?
13 Long olgeta yia, pasin bilong dispela graun i wok long i go nogut moa. Em i pulap long ol ami i pait wantaim, ol man politik i mekim pasin giaman, ol bikman bilong lotu i gat tupela maus, na ol raskol i no gat sori. I no gat rot bilong stretim pasin bilong olgeta man. Baibel i kamapim klia olsem klostu nau God bai pinisim ol man nogut long pait bilong em long Armagedon. Long dispela rot nupela taim i gat stretpela pasin long en bai kamap.—KTH 16:14-16.
14 God Jehova i makim Jisas Krais long kamap King long Kingdom o gavman bilong Em long heven. Long bipo yet Baibel i tok profet: “Wanpela pikinini man i kamap pinis long yumi, em wanpela pikinini God i givim long yumi. Em bai i stap king bilong yumi, na em bai i gat ol dispela nem,…‘King bilong kamapim gutpela sindaun na bel isi.’…Strong bilong gavman bilong en bai i wok long kamap bikpela oltaim, na bai i no gat pait na ol manmeri bai i sindaun gut oltaim.” (Aisaia 9:6, 7) Jisas i lainim ol disaipel bilong em long beten long dispela gavman: “Kingdom bilong yu i mas i kam. Mipela i mas bihainim laik bilong yu long graun olsem ol i save bihainim long heven.” (Matyu 6:10) Olsem yumi bai lukim long narapela hap bilong dispela buk, klostu nau Kingdom Bilong God bai rausim olgeta gavman bilong dispela graun, na em bai kisim ples bilong olgeta dispela gavman. (Daniel 2:44) Long dispela taim Kingdom Bilong God bai kamapim Paradais hia long graun.
NUPELA TAIM I KLOSTU PINIS!
15 Baibel i tok: “God i promis pinis long em bai i wokim nupela skai na nupela graun, na stretpela pasin tasol bai i stap long en. Yumi wet long dispela samting tasol i mas kamap.” (2 Pita 3:13; Aisaia 65:17) Taim Baibel i tok long “graun,” sampela taim dispela i makim ol manmeri i stap long graun. (Song 97:1) Olsem na “nupela graun” i makim lain manmeri em God i orait long ol.
16 Jisas i tok promis olsem long nupela taim ol man God i orait long ol, ol bai kisim “laip i stap gut oltaim oltaim” olsem presen. (Mak 10:30) Plis opim Baibel bilong yu long Jon 3:16 na 17:3, na ritim tok Jisas i mekim long yumi mas mekim wanem bilong kisim laip oltaim. Nau skelim long Baibel ol blesing ol man bai kisim, em ol man husat i winim mak bilong kisim dispela gutpela presen long God long Paradais bai kamap long graun.
17Pasin nogut, woa, pasin raskol, na pasin bilong pait na bagarapim man bai pinis. “Ol man nogut i lus olgeta.…Tasol ol manmeri i daunim nem bilong ol yet, bai God i givim olgeta graun long ol.” (Song 37:10, 11) Gutaim bai kamap, long wanem, ‘God i save mekim i dai pait long olgeta hap graun.’ (Song 46:9; Aisaia 2:4) Long dispela taim “ol manmeri i ken bihainim stretpela pasin tasol. Taim mun i lait yet, planti gutpela samting i ken kamap”—na dispela samting bai stap inap oltaim oltaim!—Song 72:7.
18Ol lain i lotuim Jehova bai i no bungim birua. Taim lain Israel long bipo i bihainim tok bilong God, ol i stap gut. (Wok Pris 25:18, 19) Em bai gutpela samting tru long i stap gut olsem long Paradais!—Aisaia 32:18; Maika 4:4.
19Kaikai bai i no sot. Man bilong raitim song i tok: “Planti rais na wit samting i ken kamap long ol gaden bilong ol manmeri, inap olsem i save kamap long Lebanon.” (Song 72:16) God Jehova bai blesim ol stretpela man, na ‘planti gutpela kaikai bai kamap long graun.’—Song 67:6.
20Graun olgeta bai kamap wanpela paradais. Ol naispela haus na gaden bai stap long dispela graun em bipo ol man i gat sin i bin bagarapim. (Aisaia 65:21-24; KTH 11:18) Ol hap bilong graun i kamap gutpela pinis bai go bikpela moa inap long graun olgeta i kamap naispela tru na i kamapim ol gutpela kaikai samting olsem gaden Iden. Na God bai ‘opim han bilong em na inapim laik bilong olgeta samting i gat laip.’—Song 145:16, NW.
21Ol man na animal bai i stap wanbel wantaim. Ol wel animal na ol animal em ol man i save lukautim ol bai kaikai wantaim. Ol liklik pikinini tu bai i no pret long ol animal em ol inap bagarapim ol man long nau.—Aisaia 11:6-9; 65:25.
22Ol sik bai pinis. Jisas em i King bilong Kingdom Bilong God long heven, na em bai mekim bikpela wok bilong oraitim ol manmeri, winim taim em i bin stap long graun. (Matyu 9:35; Mak 1:40-42; Jon 5:5-9) Long dispela taim “bai i no gat wanpela man i tok: ‘Mi gat sik.’ ”—Aisaia 33:24, NW; 35:5, 6.
23Ol man i dai pinis bai kisim laip gen na ol inap i stap oltaim. Olgeta man i dai pinis em God i tingim ol, ol bai kirap bek. “God bai i kirapim bek ol man i dai pinis, em ol stretpela man na ol man nogut wantaim.”—Aposel 24:15; Jon 5:28, 29.
24 Gutpela samting tru bai painim ol man husat i laik kisim save long Bikpela Man Bilong Wokim yumi, God Jehova, na i laik mekim wok bilong em! Jisas i toktok long Paradais bai kamap bihain long graun, taim em i tokim man nogut i dai klostu long em: “Mi tok tru long yu nau, bai yu stap wantaim mi long Paradais.” (Luk 23:43, NW ) Em i bikpela samting long yumi kisim sampela save moa long Jisas Krais, em long rot bilong em olgeta dispela blesing bai kamap.
