Tipatseni kulimba mtima kofika pamaso pa mpando wachifumu wachisomo mwachidaliro, kuti tisangalale ndi kupezeka kwa Mulungu. Tsegulani zitseko za pemphero kuti tipemphe chisomo chanu chotithandiza pa nthawi ya kusowa kwathu. Tikupereka chiyamiko ndi matamando, ndipo tikupemphera m'dzina la Yesu. Ameni.

Tiyeni tibwere pamaso pa Ambuye pamodzi pamene tikuyankhirana pa zowerenga zathu. Chiwerengo chathu choyankhirana nambala makumi anayi ndi asanu, kuchokera m'buku la Masalimo zana limodzi ndi zitatu.
Moyo wanga, tamanda Yehova; zonse zam'kati mwanga, zitamande dzina lake loyera. Moyo wanga, tamanda Yehova, ndipo usaiwale zabwino zake zonse; amene amakhululukira machimo ako onse ndi kuchiza matenda ako onse, amene amawombola moyo wako kuchoka m'dzenje ndi kukuveka chisomo ndi chifundo, amene amakhutitsa zokhumba zako ndi zinthu zabwino kuti unyamata wako ukhale watsopano ngati chiwombankhanga. Yehova ndi wachifundo ndi wachisomo, sachedwa kukwiya, ndipo ali ndi chikondi chochuluka. Sadzapitiriza kutineneza nthawi zonse, kapena kusunga mkwiyo wake kosatha; satilanga molingana ndi machimo athu, kapena kutibwezera molingana ndi zoyipa zathu. Pakuti monga mmene thambo lakumwamba lakwerera pamwamba pa dziko lapansi, momwemonso chikondi chake nchachikulu kwa iwo amene amamuopa; monga mmene kum'mawa kwatalikirana ndi kumadzulo, chomwechonso wachotsa zolakwa zathu kukhala kutali ndi ife. Monga mmene bambo amamvera chisoni ana ake, momwemonso Yehova amachitira chifundo iwo amene amamuopa; pakuti akudziwa mmene tinalengedwera, amakumbukira kuti ife ndife fumbi chabe. Ameni.
Haleluya. Ameni. Ameni. Nthawi ino ikhale nthawi yolandira ndi kusangalala ndi chisomo cha Mulungu amene amatilabadira ndi kutikumbukira. Ndikulandiraninso kachiwiri m'dzina la Yesu.
Tiyeni tiwone Mawu a Mulungu pamodzi. Lero Mawu athu afika m'buku la Yona chaputala chachiwiri. Tinakhala pa Yona chaputala choyamba maulendo anayi onse, si choncho? Ndikuganiza kuti pa Yona chaputala chachiwiri tidzakhalaponso maulendo atatu kapena anayi. Zili choncho chifukwa chakuti ndi lemba la zaluso ndi lakuya kwambiri. Ndi Mawu a Mulungu, koma nthawi yomweyo ndi nkhani ya zaluso, yomwe ili yozama kwambiri. Lero tiwerenga kuyambira Yona chaputala choyamba, vesi la khumi ndi chisanu ndi chiwiri. Kuyambira vesi la khumi ndi chisanu ndi chiwiri mpaka chaputala chachiwiri, vesi la khumi, ine ndiwerenga vesi limodzi ndipo inu muwerenga lotsatira, tikusinthana.
Tiyenera kuyambira pa chaputala choyamba, vesi la khumi ndi chisanu ndi chiwiri. M'Baibulo la Chihebri, vesi limeneli ndiye kwenikweni chaputala chachiwiri, vesi loyamba. Eya, ine ndiwerenga poyamba.
Koma Yehova anakonza nsomba yaikulu kuti imume Yona, ndipo Yona anakhala m'mimba mwa nsombayo masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku.
Kuchokera m'mimba mwa nsomba, Yona anapemphera kwa Yehova Mulungu wake.
Anati, M'masautso anga ndinaitana Yehova, ndipo Iye anandiyankha. Kuchokera pansi penipeni pa Sheolo, manda a akufa, ndinalilira thandizo, ndipo inu munamva kulira kwanga.
Munandiponya pansi mozama, pakatikati penipeni pa nyanja, ndipo mafunde anandizinga; mafunde anu onse ndi zivundungwe zanu zinandigwera pamwamba.
Ndinati, Ndaponderezedwa ndi kuchotsedwa pamaso panu, komabe ndidzayang'ananso ku kachisi wanu woyera.
Madzi anandimiza mpaka kumoyo wanga, kuya kwakukulu kunandizinga, ndipo ndere za m'nyanja zinakulungidwa kumutu kwanga.
Ndinatsikira pansi mpaka ku maziko a mapiri; nthaka ya pansi inanditsekera mpaka kalekale. Koma inu, Yehova Mulungu wanga, munatulutsa moyo wanga kuchoka m'dzenje.
Pamene moyo wanga unkakomoka mkati mwanga, ndinamukumbukira Yehova, ndipo pemphero langa linafika kwa inu, m'kachisi wanu woyera.
Iwo amene amamatira ku mafano achabechabe amasiya chisomo chimene chikanakhala chawo.
Koma ine, ndi nyimbo za chiyamiko, ndidzapereka nsembe kwa inu. Chimene ndinalonjeza ndidzachikwaniritsa. Chipulumutso chimachokera kwa Yehova.
Ndipo Yehova analamula nsombayo, ndipo inamusanziira Yona pamtunda wowuma. Ameni.
Pano pali mawu olembedwa ndi mizere isanu chabe:
Inde, ndamva. Eya, ndichita zimenezo. Ndinenso. Eya. Chabwino.
Kodi mukudziwa mutu wa ndakatulo imeneyi? Ndi ndakatulo yotchedwa Mwezi, yolembedwa ndi wakatundu wa ndakatulo dzina lake Kim Yong-taek. Kodi mungakhulupirire kuti iyi ndi ndakatulo yeniyeni? Inde, mizere isanu chabe yongovomera. Mukaganizira zomwe zili kuseri kwa mawu amenewa, mumamvetsetsa chifukwa chake mutu wake ndi Mwezi. Pansi pa thambo la usiku lowalitsidwa bwino ndi mwezi, mukakhala ndi munthu amene mumamukonda kwambiri, kungonena chabe kuti inde kumatanthauza chilichonse: kusirirana, chikondi, ndi kumvetsana kozama. Mumamva zimenezi, si choncho? Mukangomvetsetsa komwe zikuchitikira, mawuwa amayamba kumveka bwino: Inde, ndamva. Eya, ndichita zimenezo. Ndinenso. Eya. Chabwino. Zimakufikani pamtima nthawi yomweyo. Koma mukangoyang'ana mawuwo pa okha popanda kuganizira zimenezi, zimaoneka ngati zopanda tanthauzo, si zoona? Zimaoneka ngati munthu akungobwereza mawu amodzi mobwerezabwereza.
Izi ndi zimene timazitcha kukongola kwa malo osalembedwa mu ndakatulo. Tikamawerenga ndakatulo kapena kuyang'ana luso monga zojambula ndi zithunzi, nthawi zambiri malo omwe sanalembedwe chilichonse, malo opanda kanthuwo, ndi amene amadzutsa chithunzi champhamvu ndi kukhudzidwa mtima kwambiri. Zomwe sizinalembedwe zimalankhula zambiri kwa ife kuposa zomwe zalembedwa.
M'Chipangano Chakale muli mbali zosiyanasiyana za malemba, ndipo pakati pa mbali zimenezi, makamaka m'Masalimo kapena m'mapemphero operekedwa ngati ndakatulo m'mabuku a aneneri, malo am'mbali opanda kanthu amene sananenepo mawu nthawi zambiri amatikhudza pamtima kwambiri kuposa mawu omwe ananenedwawo.
Pemphero limene tangoliwerenga kumene m'buku la Yona chaputala chachiwiri, limene Yona anapemphera pamene anali m'mimba mwa nsomba kwa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, ndi ndakatulo. Ndithudi ndi ndakatulo yeniyeni. Ndi mbali ya buku la aneneri, koma nthawi yomweyo ndi ndakatulo. Kodi zimenezi zikutanthauza chiyani kwa ife? Limeneli ndi phunziro limene tikufunika kulifotokoza lero. Kapena m'malo moti ndi phunziro chabe, ngakhale ana aang'ono azaka zisanu a ku sukulu ya ana kapena ku Sande Sukulu amadziwa nkhani ya mneneri Yona, nanga n'chifukwa chiyani Mulungu anaika pemphero lalitali la ndakatulo pomwe pano? Kodi Mulungu akufuna kutiuza chiyani? N'chifukwa chiyani Mulungu anachititsa kuti pemphero limene Yona anapemphera kuchokera m'mimba mwa nsomba lilembedwe pomwe pano? Pamene tikuwona ndi kumva pemphero limene analipereka pakati pa masautso, kodi Aisraeli anayenera kuphunzirapo chiyani? Ndikukupemphani kuti mudziyerekeze ngati kuti ndinu Yona amene muli m'mimba mwa nsomba, ndipo kuchokera pamalopo, tiyeni tiyang'anenso ndakatulo imeneyi, pemphero limeneli, kamodzinso.
Malo Apadera Amene Mulungu Anakonza
Tsopano, lembali ndi la buku la aneneri. Chifukwa ndi ulosi, lili ndi zomwe likutiuza; Mulungu akuyankhula nafe kudzera m'menemo. Nthawi yomweyo, ndi pemphero. Popeza ndi pemphero, lili ndi mfundo zomwe ziyenera kukwezedwa kwa Mulungu. Tiyeni tiganizire mbali zonse ziwirizi pamene tikuliyang'ana. Muyenera kukumbukira kuti ndakatulo imeneyi, pemphero limeneli, lili mkati mwa nkhani yomwe imayambira pa chaputala choyamba, vesi la khumi ndi chisanu ndi chiwiri, ndi kutha pa chaputala chachiwiri, vesi la khumi. N'chifukwa chake chaputala choyamba, vesi la khumi ndi chisanu ndi chiwiri lili lofunika kwambiri. Kodi timapemphera mumkhalidwe ndi m'malo otani, nanga n'chifukwa chiyani Mulungu anatipatsa chinthu chotchedwa pempherochi? Kodi chifukwa chake chinali chiyani, ndipo zinali zotani zomwe zinali mkatimo pamene Yona anapemphera mumkhalidwe umenewo monga woimira Aisraeli? Izi ndi zomwe tikufuna tizipende.
Kodi tiwerengere limodzi chaputala choyamba, vesi la khumi ndi chisanu ndi chiwiri? Tiyeni tiwerenge.
Koma Yehova anakonza nsomba yaikulu kuti imume Yona, ndipo Yona anakhala m'mimba mwa nsombayo masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku.
Onani pano kuti Iye anakonza nsomba yaikulu. Tinanena kuti limodzi mwa mawu ofunika kwambiri m'chaputala choyamba ndi mawu akuti chachikulu kapena yaikulu. Mulungu ananena kuti Nineve unali mzinda waukulu, ndipo Mulungu ndi wamkulu kuposa mzinda wa Nineve umene unadzaza ndi zoyipa zazikulu. Pamene Yona anathawa, kodi Mulungu anatumiza chiyani? Anatumiza mphepo yaikulu, ndipo mkuntho waukulu unauka pa nyanja. Kenako anachititsa oyendetsa sitima achikunja aja kumva mantha aakulu. Ndipo potsiriza, anatumiza nsomba yaikulu. Mawu amodzi ameneŵa akuonetsa kuti Mulungu ndiye Mlengi ndi Wolamulira Mfumu amene amatsogolera chilengedwe chonse ndi mbiri yonse ya anthu.
Koma chomwe chili chofunika kwambiri n'chakuti Mulungu anakonza, kapena anapereka, nsombayi. Anaipangira makonzedwe. Limeneli ndi liwu lathu lalikulu la lero. Ngakhale mutayiwala zina zonse, mukuyenera kukumbukira mfundo iyi. Kwa Yona, amene anaponyedwa m'nyanja pakati pa mkuntho, podziwa pasadakhale kuti Yona aponyedwa m'madziwo, Mulungu anakonzeratu nsomba pasadakhale. Lisungeni liwu lakuti anakonza ili m'mitima mwanu. M'tsogolo muno, mukadzayang'ana chaputala chachinayi, kodi Mulungu amakonza chiyani? M'chaputala chachinayi, Yona akupempheranso. Koma pemphero lake la m'chaputala chachiwiri ndi pemphero lake la m'chaputala chachinayi ndi zosiyana kotheratu, zotsutsana kwambiri. Tidzaliona pemphero limenelo m'tsogolo. Koma pamene Yona akupemphera, kodi Mulungu amakonza chiyani? Amakonza chomera, amakonzanso mphutsi, mphepo yotentha yakum'mawa, ndi dzuwa lotentha kwambiri.
Nthawi yomweyo, mwa anthu amene amapemphera, mwa anthu amene ali m'zowawa, mwa anthu amene amamudziwa Mulungu, Mulungu amakonza kanthu kena kake kuti awazindikiritse choonadi. Nanga ndiye kuti mapemphero athu ayenera kuperekedwa mumkhalidwe wotani? Mfundo yoyamba ndi yakuti ayenera kuperekedwa m'malo ndi mumkhalidwe umene Mulungu waukonza.
Choncho anakonza nsomba ndipo anaichititsa kumume Yona. Yona atalowa m'mimba mwa nsombayo, anakhalamo masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku. Kodi malo amenewo anali chiyani? Anali nsomba. Tikawerenga m'chinenero choyambirira, nsomba yaikulu yotchulidwa poyamba ija ndi yamphongo. Koma pambuyo pake, pamene pakuti Yona anali m'mimba mwa nsomba, nsomba yachiwiriyo ndi yaikazi.
Inde, pali yamphongo ndi yaikazi. N'chifukwa chiyani mwadzidzidzi ikukhala yaikazi? Zaka zapitazo, pamene ndinkaphunzira Chihebri ndi ophunzira anga, ndinawafunsa za nkhaniyi, ndipo wophunzira wina anapereka yankho lochititsa chidwi kwambiri: Kodi sizingakhale kuti chifukwa chakuti inamume Yona, inasanduka mwadzidzidzi kuchoka pa yamphongo n'kukhala yaikazi? Izi ndi zomwe wophunzirayo ananena. Ndinaganizira zimenezi, ndinapita kukafufuza m'mabuku ofotokoza Malemba, ndipo ndinapeza kuti tanthauzo lotero lilipodi ndithu. Akatswiri akunena kuti zimenezi n'zodziwikiratu kuti zinachitika mwadala. M'buku la Yona, nsomba yamphongo ikamulandira Yona imakhala nsomba yaikazi chifukwa mawu oti mimba pano ndi ofanana ndendende ndi mawu otanthauza chiberekero. Kodi mukuwona chimene zikutanthauza? Mimba ya nsomba inali malo ofunika kwambiri, ngati chiberekero chimene chimabala moyo watsopano. Kodi mukumvetsa zimenezi?
Choncho, mimba ya nsombayi si china ayi koma ndi nthawi ndi malo apadera amene Mulungu amakumana ndi anthu ake pakati pa mkuntho. Mukayang'ana m'mbuyomu, pakati pa mkuntho uja, Yona anatsikira pansi penipeni pa chombo, si choncho? Chombo chijanso chinali chimodzimodzi. Pakati pa mkuntho, chombo chikugwedezeka mosalekeza pamwamba pa mafunde, osati kuti chawonongekeratu n'kufa, komanso osati kuti chili ndi moyo weniweni. Kodi anayenera kuchita chiyani pamenepo? Oyendetsa sitima aja anadzuka n'kufuula. Kapitawo anabwera n'kunena kuti, Dzuka ndipo pemphera kwa Mulungu wako! Fuula mokweza! Yona atakana kuchita zimenezo, chinachitika n'chiyani? Anati, Nditengeni ndipo ndiponyeni m'nyanja, ndipo Mulungu anamuchititsa kulowa m'mimba mwa nsomba.
Mpingo wa Ambuye, ichi ndi chikondi cha Mulungu. Kodi zimenezi zikutanthauza chiyani? M'miyoyo yathu, timakumana ndi mikuntho m'malo otizinga, pamodzi ndi mayesero ndi masautso osiyanasiyana. Koma nthawi zonse tikakumana nazo, pali chinachake chimene Mulungu amachikonza. N'chiyani chimenecho? Amakonza chombo, ndipo amakonza mimba ya nsomba. Haleluya! Mulungu ndiye amene amakonza malo amene tingakumane naye, nthawi yapadera ndi malo apadera amene tingabwere pamaso pake. Ameni. N'chifukwa chake anthu akakumana ndi mavuto m'moyo, amakamba zopita ku phiri la pemphero, kapena amapita ku misonkhano yapadera ya mapemphero kapena mapemphero am'mawa kwambiri ku tchalitchi. Zimenezo n'zolondola ndithu. Pali malo ndi nthawi imene Mulungu amaikonza mwapadera.
Masiku Atatu, Usana ndi Usiku: Kufa kwa Umunthu Wakale ndi Kubadwanso Mwatsopano
Kodi anayenera kuchita chiyani pamenepo? Anamuchititsa kukhala kumeneko masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku. Pambuyo pake m'Mauthenga Abwino, Yesu ananena kuti, Chizindikiro chokhacho chimene chidzaperekedwa kwa mbadwo wosakhulupirira uwu, umene umakana kukhulupirira umboni wa Mulungu, ndi chizindikiro cha Yona. Masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, zinaloza ndithu ku imfa ndi kuuka kwa Yesu. Koma nkhani ya masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku iyi ndi yofunika kwambiri. Mukayang'anitsitsa m'Malemba, masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku amenewa ndi nthawi yokumana ndi Mulungu, ndipo, m'njira ina, ndi nthawi imene umunthu wodzikonda umafa. Ndi nthawi imene zakale ziyenera kuvulidwa ndipo zatsopano ziyenera kuwonekera. Pamene Yona akukhala m'mimba mwa nsomba kwa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, ndiyo nthawi imene umunthu wakale wa Yona uyenera kusendedwa ndi kuvulidwa, ndipo ayenera kuvala umunthu watsopano. Ndiwo malo ndi nthawi yeniyeni ya pemphero. Ndiwo malo ndi nthawi imene Mulungu waikonzeratu.
M'buku la Eksodo, kodi Mose ananena chiyani pamene anali pafupi kutuluka m'dziko la Iguputo? Mose anapita kwa Farao n'kunena kuti, Tiyeni tiyende ulendo wa masiku atatu m'chipululu, ndipo kumeneko tikamulambire Mulungu. Ndipo atawoloka Nyanja Yofiira, chinachitika n'chiyani? Anayenda ulendo wa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, n'kufika pa Phiri la Sinai, si zoona? Pamenepo ndi pamene anakumana ndi Mulungu. Kuwoloka Nyanja Yofiira ndi kuyenda kwa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, kodi zimenezo zinatanthauza chiyani? Inali nthawi yoti anthu a Israeli, amene anali kukhala ngati akapolo ku Iguputo, avule umunthu wawo waukapolo ndi kuvala udindo wa kukhala anthu atsopano a mu ufumu wa Mulungu. Choncho poyenda m'dziko louma ndi lolaluka lija kwa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, akutaya zonse zakale za m'mbuyo mwawo, anaima pamaso pa Mulungu pa Phiri la Sinai, nanga anamva mawu otani? Atafika m'chaputala cha khumi ndi chisanu ndi chinayi, anamva chiyani? Mudzakhala chuma changa chapadera, anthu anga a mtengo wapatali. Haleluya! Anayenera kudutsa m'masiku atatu amenewo kuti akhale anthu amtengo wapatali m'malo mwa akapolo. Kuti awathandize kumva vumbulutso lonse la Mulungu, kumvetsera Mawu ake, ndi kuzindikira kwenikweni kuti iwo anali ayani, Mulungu anawayendetsa ndi kuwazunguliza m'chipululu kwa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku. Awa ndi mawu apadera kwambiri, masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku. Mofananamo, amamusunga Yona m'mimba mwa nsomba m'masautso kwa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku. Amamufikitsa pamalo opemphera, si choncho? Amamutsogolera kuti abwere pamaso pa Mulungu.
Palinso chitsanzo china cha masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku. N'chiyani chimenecho? Ndi pamene Abrahamu anapereka Isake. Anapatsidwa Isake, ndipo mwanayo atakula, m'buku la Genesis chaputala cha makumi awiri ndi ziwiri, Mulungu anauza Abrahamu kuti apereke Isake ngati nsembe yopsereza. Popanda kumuuza Sara mawu alionse, ananyamula zakudya ndi katundu m'mawa, anatenga anyamata ake ndi mwana wake, n'kuyenda m'njira. Kodi anayenda nthawi yaitali bwanji? Anayenda ulendo wa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, nanga anafika kuti? Anafika ku phiri la Mulungu, Phiri la Moriya, limenenso limadziwika ngati Phiri la Ziyoni. Phiri la Ziyoni litayamba kuonekera patali, anawabweza anyamata aja. Nanga ananena chiyani? Tikapembedza paphiri ilo, tidzabweranso kwa inu. Kodi zimenezo zikutanthauza chiyani? Zikutanthauza kuvula umunthu wakale wa Abrahamu umene anali nawo, chifukwa anayenera kumupha Isake, si choncho? Tenga mwana wako, mwana wako wapamtima yekhayo, amene umamukonda, ndipo kamupereke ngati nsembe. Inali imfa ya kudzikuza ndi kufuna kwa mtima wake, kumvera lamulo limenelo. Kenako amabwerera. Haleluya!
Yona kupemphera m'mimba muja kwa masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, kunatanthauza kuti anayenera kusiya umunthu wake wakale ndi kulandira udindo watsopano, moyo watsopano. Pa nthawi zathu za masautso, nthawi zonse pamakhala nthawi ndi malo ngati mimba ya nsomba amene Mulungu amakonza. Kupita pamaso pa Mulungu, ndipo kudzera m'nthawi yophiphiritsa iyi ya masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, kuvula moyo wathu wakale ndi kuvala watsopano, chimenecho ndiye pemphero lenileni. Haleluya! Umeneu ndi mwayi waukulu ndi ulemerero wa pemphero. Ameni.
Choncho kwa Yona, amene anagwidwa pakati pa mkuntho, Mulungu anakonza nsomba kuti imume, anamulowetsa m'mimba mwake, ndi kumuchititsa kukhala kumeneko masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, zomwe zikunena za imfa yauzimu. Yona sanafe thupi lenileni. Pambuyo pake tidzayerekeza zimenezi ndi pemphero la Yesu, koma Yona anafunika kufadi mwauzimu. Ngakhale pamene tikupenda lembali tiwona kuti sanafiketu penipeni pa mfundoyo, komabe, m'malo apadera amene Mulungu anakonza ano, zinthu zimene timazigwira ndi kuziumirira, zonyansa zathu zakale, machimo athu, ndi zizolowezi zathu zakale ziyenera kuvulidwa ngati kuti tikudutsa mu imfa. Ndipo, monga mmene chaputala chachiwiri, vesi la khumi likunenera kuti nsomba inamusanziira kunja, ifenso titha kutaya zakale ndi kubadwanso mwatsopano m'njira yatsopano ya moyo. Ameni.
Ndikukhulupirira kuti ichi si chinthu chimene chimapezeka kokha pa nthawi zapadera kapena m'mayesero aakulu kwambiri a m'moyo ayi. Ndikukhulupirira kuti aliyense amene amapemphera, aliyense amene amabwera kwa Mulungu mwachikhulupiriro chenicheni kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu, akhoza kukhala ndi mwayi umenewu wovala zovala zachilungamo. Pokhulupirira kuti njira yotere yatsegulidwa kwa ife, ndikukhumba kuti inuyo ndi ineyo tizidalira Yesu nthawi zonse tikamapemphera, kutaya zakale, kuvula munthu wakale, ndi kuvala munthu watsopano.
Kulira Kozikidwa pa Ubale ndi Chitsimikizo cha Yankho
Tsopano, chimene tikuyenera kuphunzirapo chotsatira ndi pemphero la Yona. Yona akuyamba kupemphera ali m'mimba mwa nsomba. Pamene akupereka zopempha zake, mukawerengetsa mosamalitsa, muwona kuti mawu ake pafupifupi onse akuchokera m'Masalimo. Ndi chitsanzo chabwino kwambiri choyankhira. Likuyimira pemphero la Mwisraeli wachitsanzo chabwino, kapena mmene Mwisraeli wolondola ayenera kupempherera, popeza anali mneneri. Anali kudziwa bwino Malemba, anali kudziwa bwino Mawu a Mulungu, ndipo ili linali pemphero lake monga wolambira amene amatha kupereka kulambira kochokera pansi pa mtima kwa Mulungu. Chifukwa chimene pemphero la Yona linalembedwera pomwe pano m'chaputala chachiwiri n'chakuti Yona akugwiritsa ntchito mwayi waukulu wa pemphero umene Mulungu anawapatsa Aisraeli. Akuganiza kuti, Mulungu walola kufika pano, ndipo watsegula njira yoti Aisraeli azipemphera motere. Choncho Yona akuyenda m'njira imeneyo molimba mtima. Akupereka zopempha zake. Chifukwa chiyani? Chifukwa ubale umene ulipo pakati pa Mulungu ndi Yona ndi ubale womwewo umene ulipo pakati pa Mulungu ndi Aisraeli. Akunena kuti, pemphera potengera ubale umenewo. N'chifukwa chake pemphero la Yona lili pa mulingo wosiyana kotheratu ndi mapemphero a anthu amitundu ina. Tiyeni tiyambe taona zimenezo poyamba. Tiyeni tiwone chitsanzo cha pemphero la Aisraeli. Mulungu watipatsa ubale woyambirira umene umatilola kupemphera pafupifupi motere. Titha kupemphera moposa pamenepa, koma watipatsa mwayi woyambirira umenewu wa pemphero. Izi ndi zomwe pemphero la Yona likusonyeza.
Yona akupemphera kwa Mulungu, ndipo tayang'anani pa vesi loyamba. Chaputala chachiwiri, vesi loyamba likuti, Kuchokera m'mimba mwa nsomba, Yona anapemphera kwa Yehova Mulungu wake. Ichi ndi chinthu choyamba komanso chofunika kwambiri pa pemphero limene timapereka pamaso pa Mulungu. Yona anadziwa amene ankapemphera kwa Iye. Baibulo likuneneratu momveka bwino kuti, anapemphera kwa Mulungu wake. Pamene mukupemphera, kodi mumapemphera mukhulupirira kuti Mulungu ndi Mulungu wanu? Zimenezi zimafuna ubale weniweni. Monga momwe ndimanenera nthawi zonse, ine ndimamudziwa Donald Trump. Vuto n'lakuti iyeyo sandidziwa ine, si choncho? Pamenepo ndiye pali mfundo yake.
