(Daniele 8:3, 4, 20-22; Ciyubunuzyo 13:1, 2, 7, 8) Mazubaano, bantu biingi baliikujana mali nyingi kwiinda mukuuzya zilwanisyo zijaya. Zilaantanganana kuti “nyika yoonse iikede muzibi.”—1 Johane 5:19.
21 MaKristu ‘tabali bayeeyi nyika.’ Bakombi baJehova tabatoli lubazu mutwaambo twanyika amunkondo. Tabajayi bantu alubo tabasumpuli mbunga zipa kuti bantu bafwe.
