Oikalunga yaSamaria ka ya li ina eenghono dokuxupifa ouhamba womapata omulongo.

Ashike nande ongaho, ovakalelipo vatatu Ovajuda kava li va yelifila Rabsake ouyelele oo. “Ndelenee vo ova mwena, inave mu nyamukula nande ondjovo imwe osheshi ohamba oye va lombewela: Inamu mu nyamukula nande.” (Jesaja 36:21) Opo nee Eliakim, Sebna naJoah va shuna kuHiskia va ka hepaulule eendjovo adishe daRabsake. — Jesaja 36:22.

Okwa li a tuma Eliakim naSebna pamwe novalumenhu ovakulunhu vovapristeli va ka pule kutya Jehova okwa ti ngahelipi okupitila momuprofeti Jesaja, ofimbo ye a ya kotembeli.

Ova li ve udite ve li meameno molwaashi ekuma loshilando shavo ola li lile, la pama nola twa momulonga waEufrat. Oule womido omafele, kape na nande omutondi umwe a dula oku ya moshilando shavo.

Jehova okwa li ta popi naKores okupitila mexunganeko a ti: “Opo u shiive nokutya, Aame omwene ou, nde ku ifana edina loye, Aame ou Kalunga kaIsrael.” (Jesaja 45:3b) Oshididilikwedi eshi omupangeli wepangelo enaenghono etine wopefimbo lOmbiibeli a ka didilika kutya okwa findana molwaashi Jehova, Omunamapangelo weshito alishe, oye e mu yambidida.

Eshi epangelo olo la fimana la teka po, ola li la pingenwa po kepangelo limwe enaenghono, nondjokonona oya li i na okushiivika komapupi nomapupi. Oilando oyo ya li ye shi dingilila oya li ya halelela okumona oiningwanima oyo notashi dulika ya li ya haluka eshi ya uda kutya Babilon okwa hangwa koudjuu omolwOvajuda, oludalo laJakob, omayovi manini avo vali moukwatwa waBabilon nonande ova li va talika ko ‘vehe na oshilonga.’ Oshiwana shOvaisrael osho sha li sha xupa po, osha li shi na ondilo momesho aJehova. Oshi li “omupiya” waye. Jehova okwe shi ‘hoolola’ mokati koiwana aishe yokombada yedu. Nonande Kores ka li e shii Jehova pehovelo, Jehova okwe mu longifa e li omuvaekwa waYe a hanaune po oshilando osho sha li sha anya okumangulula oshiwana shaye shi dje mo moukwatwa.

Molwaashi Kalunga okwa mangulula oshiwana shaye, oohandimwe ovo va dja moiwana ihapu okudja koushilo fiyo okouninginino otava ka didilika kutya Jehova oYe aeke Kalunga kashili. — Malakia 1:11.
