Ia U Ioannis la pyniapher na baroh kiwei pat ki apostol kum “uta u synran ia uba U Jisu u ieit.” Ioannis 21:20. Imat u la kmen-la sngewbha kham palat shibun ia ka jingialong paralok jong U Khrist, bad u la iohpdiang shibun ki dak jong ka jingshaniah bad ka jingieit jong U Nongpynim. U la long uwei na ki laingut ia kiba la shah ban iohi ia ka burom jong U Khrist halor u lum jong ka jingpynkylla-dur bad ia ka jingkthang mynsiem jong U ha Gethsemane, bad ka la dei sha ka jingsumar jong u ba U Trai jong ngi U la pynkhamti ia ka kmie jong U ha ki kynta bakhadduh jong ka jingkthang mynsiem jong U halor ka diengphna. KJA 255.1

Ia ka jingieit jong U Nongpynim na ka bynta une u synran baieit la pynphai da baroh ka bor-ka jingkhlain jong ka jingshakri bashitrhem. U Ioannis u la snoh sha U Khrist kumba u dieng sohwain u snoh ha u paia-u rishot baheh-bajrong. Na ka bynta U Kynrad jong u u tur da ka jingshlur sha ki jingma jong ka iing-bishar bad u la ieng pyntud sawdong ka diengphna, bad ha ka khubor ba U Khrist U la mihpat, u la mareh stet sha ka jingtep, ha ka jingshitrhem jong u u la tam palat wat ia U Petros uba ju tur jubor. KJA 255.2

Ka jingieit kaba shaniah bad ka jingshakri bymkhwan-lade ba la pynpaw ha ka jingim bad ka jinglong jong U Ioannis ka ai ki jinghikai kibym lah khein dor sha ka balang Khristan. U Ioannis um shym la ioh ia kane ka jingieit na ka jinglong tynrai jong ka jinglong kaba ka jingiashem bakham hadien jong u ka la pynpaw. Da ka jinglong tynrai u la don shibun ki jingduna basniew eh. Ym tang ba u la long uba sarong, uba sngewstad lade, bad uba kwah burom eh, hynrei uba law-law jingmut, bad uba wad kput haba pynmong ia u. Ia u bad ia u hynmen jong u la khot “ki khun shynrang u pyrthat.” Ka jingbitar shla, ka jingkwah pynhiar kput, ka mynsiem kem-daw, kine baroh ki la don ha une u synran baieit. Hynrei hapoh jong kine baroh U Nonghikai bakynja-blei U la iohi ia ka dohnud kaba shitrhem, kaba sngur, kaba ieit eh. U Jisu U la dumok ia ka jingwad-lade ka jong u, U la pynduh ia ka jingkwah kyrdan jong u, U la tynjuh tyngeh ia ka jingngeit jong u. Hynrei U la pynpaw sha u ia kata kaba ka mynsiem jong u ka la thrang __ ka jingitynnad jong ka jinglong khuid, ka bor pynkylla dur jong ka jingieit. KJA 256.1

Ka jingduna basniew jong ka jinglong U Ioannis ki la wanmih jur shakhmat ha shibun ki jingjia ha ka por ka jingiasyllok jong u bad U Nongpynim. Ha kawei ka por U Khrist U la phah ia ki nongrah-khubor hashuwa jong U sha kawei ka shnong ki nong Samaria, ban kyrpad ia ki briew ban pynkhreh jingbam na ka bynta jong U bad ki synran jong U. Hynrei haba U Jisu u la jan sha kata ka shnong, U la pyni dak ba Un iaid nangta ban leit sha Jerusalem. Kane ka la pynkhih ia ka jingbishni jong ki nong Samaria, te ha ka jaka ban pdiang sngewbha ia U ban sah bad ki, kim shym la lehsbun ia U kumba ki ju leh ia uno-uno uwei pat u nongiaid lynti. U Jisu Um ju pynbor ia ka jingdon jong U hapdeng kino-kino ki briew, te ki nong Samaria ki la duh noh ia ka jingkyrkhu kaba yn jin da la ai ha ki lada ki la kyrpad ia U ban long u nongwan jngoh hapdeng jong ki. KJA 256.2

Ki synran ki la tip ba ka la dei ka jingthmu jong U Khrist ban kyrkhu ia ki nong Samaria da ka jingdon lang jong U; bad ka jingleh bymsalia, ka jingpihuin, bad ka jingbym niewburom ba la pynpaw sha U Kynrad jong ki ka la pyndap ia ki da ka jinglyngngoh bad ka jingbitar shla.

Ba ia Uta Uba ki hi ki la tieng-burom katta-katta la niewbein kumne, ka la imat ha ki ka jingleh sniew kaba khraw than eh ba yn shu iaid-lait ia ka khlem ka jingpynshitom kaba mardor. Ha ka jingshitrhem jong ki ki la ong, “Ko Trai, me mon ba ngin hukum ia ka ding ban hiar na bneng, bad ban thang duh ia ki, kumba U Elias ruh u la leh?” ki da thew sha ka jingpynjot ia ki kaptan rangbah jong ki nong Samaria bad ia ki kynhun jong ki ia kiba la phah ban kem ia u nongiathuhlypa Elijah. Ki la lyngngoh ban iohi ba U Jisu U la pang ka mynsiem namar kita ki ktien jong ki, bad ki la nang kham lyngngoh shuh-shuh katba ka jingdumok jong U ka la rung sha ki shkor jong ki: “Phim tip na kaba kumno ka mynsiem phi long. Naba U Khun u briew um shym wan ban pynjot ia ki mynsiem ki briew, hynrei ban pynim.” Loukas 9:54-56. KJA 256.3

Kam dei ka bynta jong ka jingtrei-kam jong U Khrist ban pynbor ia ki briew ban pdiang ia U. Dei u Soitan, bad ki briew jong u ia kiba la pynkhih da ka mynsiem jong u, kiba wad ban pynbor ia ka jingiatiplem. Hapoh ka jingleh mynleh jong ka jingshitrhem na ka bynta ka hok, ki briew kiba la iasoh-kynhun bad ki angel ba sniew teng-teng ki wallam ka jingshah shitom halor ki para-briew jong ki khnang ban pynkylla ia ki sha ki jinghikai niam jong ki; hynrei U Khrist barobor U ju pyni ia ka jingisynei, barobor U iai-wad ban khring da kaba pynpaw ia ka jingieit jong U. Um lah ban shah ia u nongialeh pyrshah hapoh ka mynsiem, lymne Un ym pdiang ia ka jingshakri kaba shiteng-shiliang; hynrei U thrang tang ia ka jingshakri mon-sngewbha hi, ka jingjied mon-sngewbha jong ka dohnud hapoh ka jingpynkhih jur jong ka jingieit. KJA 256.4

Ha kawei pat ka jingjia U Jakob bad U Ioannis ki la wanrah ka jingkyrpad lyngba ka kmie jong ki kaba kyrpad ba ia ki yn shah ban bat ia ki kyrdan bahajrong tam jong ka nam-ka burom ha ka hima jong U Khrist.

Ka kmie, da kaba kwah lem bad ki ia ka jaka bakhraw burom ha kane ka hima na ka bynta ki khun shynrang jong ka, ka la pan-kyrpad, “To hukum ba kine arngut ki khun jong nga kin ioh shong, uwei sha kamon jong me, bad uwei sha kadiang jong me ha ka hima jong me.” KJA 256.5

Hynrei U Nongpynim U la jubab, “Phim tip ia kaei ba phi pan. Phi lah ban dih na ka khuri na kaba nga ngan sa dih, bad ban pynbaptis ia phi da kata ka jingpynbaptis da kaba la pynbaptis ia nga?” Ki la kynmaw ia ki ktien bamaian jong U kiba kdew sha ka jingtynjuh bad ka jingshah shitom, pynban ki la jubab da ka jingsngew-skhem, “ngi lah.” Ki kloi ban niew ia kata kum ka burom ban pynshisha ia ka jingkohnguh syiem jong ki da kaba iashim bynta ia baroh kaban wan jia-wan hap ha U Trai jong ki. KJA 257.1

“Phin ioh dih shisha na ka khuri jong nga, bad da kata ka jingbaptis da kaba la pynbaptis ia nga,” U Khrist U la ong skhem __ ha khmat jong U ka diengphna ha ka jaka ka khet, arngut ki nongkam bymman kum ki paralok jong U ha ka liang kamon bad ka liang kadiang jong U. U Jakob bad U Ioannis kin long ki nongshim bynta lem bad U Kynrad jong ki ha ka jingshah shitom __ uwei, la thmu ba un iakynduh stet eh ia ka jingiap da ka waitlam; ia uwei pat, uba bud slem tam ia U Kynrad jong u na baroh ki synran ha ka jingtrei bad ka jingshah niewbein bad ha ka jingshah pynshitom-bein. “Hynrei ia kaban shong sha kamon jong nga bad sha kadiang jong nga,” U la bteng ban ong, “kam long ka jong nga ban ai, hynrei tang ha kita ia kiba U Kpa jong nga u la pynkhreh ia ka.” Mathaios 20:21-23. KJA 257.2

U Jisu U la sngewthuh ia ka jingthmu ka dohnud kaba la pynkhih ia kata ka jingpan te kumne la dumok ia ka jingsarong bad ka jingkwah kyrdan jong ki arngut ki synran: “Ki syiem ki Jentil ki leh trai khlieh ia ki, bad kita kiba khraw ki leh donbor halor jong ki. Kan ym long kumta hapdeng jong phi: hynrei lada uno-uno ruh u mon ban long bakhraw hapdeng jong phi, to ai un long u shakri jong phi; bad lada uno-uno ruh u mon ban long rangbah hapdeng jong phi, to ai ba un long u mraw jong phi: KJA 257.3

Kumba U Khun u briew um shym la wan ba yn shakri ia u, hynrei ba u un shakri, bad ba un ai ia la ka jingim ban long ka jingsiewspah ia kiba bun.” Mathaios 20:25-28. KJA 257.4

Ha ka hima jong U Blei, ia ka burom-ka kyrdan ym shym la ioh lyngba ka jingleh shiliang khmat. Ym shym la kamai ia ka, lymne ym shym iohpdiang ia ka lyngba ka jingai kaba la shu rai donbor.

Ka pansngiat bad ka khet ki long ki takma jong ka kyndon ba la kot __ ki takma jong ka jingjop lyngba ka jingai-ei jong U Trai jong ngi, U Jisu Khrist. KJA 257.5

Slem-slem hadien, haba ia U Ioannis la wallam sha ka jingiasyllok sngewlem bad U Khrist lyngba ki jingshah shitom jong U, U Trai Jisu U la pynpaw sha u kaei ka jinglong-jingman jong ka jingjan sha ka hima jong U. “Uta uba jop,” U Khrist U la ong, “ngan ai ha u ban shong lem bad nga halor ka khet jong nga, kumba nga ruh nga la jop, bad nga shong lem bad U Kpa jong nga halor ka khet jong u.” Jingpynpaw 3:21. Uta uban ieng hajan tam eh sha U Khrist un dei uta uba la dih jylliew bun eh na ka mynsiem len-lade bad ka jingieit jong U, __ ka jingieit kabym “leh sarong ia lade, kam ju pynmeng, . . . kam wad tang ia kiei-kiei ruh la kajong, kam shait ban khih bitar, kam tharai sniew” (1 Korinth 13:4,5)’ ka jingieit kaba la pynkhih jur ia une u synran, kumba ka la pynkhih eh ia U Trai jong ngi, ban ai lut ia baroh phar, ban im bad ban trei bad ban kheinduh wat haduh ka jingiap, na ka bynta ka jingpynim ia ka kynja bynriew. KJA 257.6

Ha kawei pat ka por hapdeng ki jingtrei banyngkong jong ki ha ka kam ialap, U Jakob bad U Ioannis ki la iashem ia uwei u briew uba, katba um shym la dei uba la phla shai kum u nongbud jong U Khrist, u la beh noh ia ki ksuid ha ka kyrteng jong U. Kine ki synran ki la khang ia une u briew ban trei ia kata ka kam bad ki la tharai ba ki la leh ia kaba dei ha kane ka bynta.

Iano-iano ruh kiba la pyni ia lade ha kano-kano ka rukom kiba long paralok bad U Khrist ym dei satia ban beh noh. Ki synran kim dei satia ban iai-don ia ka mynsiem kaba khim, kaba pynkyrpang sngewbiang ia lade, hynrei ki dei ban pynpaw ia kajuh ka jingsngewsynei kaba ktah jngai kaba ki lah iohi ha U Kynrad jong ki.

Ki la kubur ia ka jingbakla jong ki bad ki la pdiang ia ka jingsneng-ka jingdumok. KJA 257.7

Kine ki jinghikai jong U Khrist, kiba pyni shai ia ka jingjemnud bad ka jingsngewrit bad ka jingieit kum kiba donkam eh ia ka jingsan ha ka jingai-ei bad ka jingbiang-jingbit na ka bynta ka kam jong U, ki la long kiba kordor eh ha U Ioannis. U la niewkor ia kawei-pa-kawei ka jinghikai bad khlem da pud u la wadlad ban pyniadei-dur ia ka jingim jong u bad ka nuksa bakynja-blei.

KJA 258.1

U Ioannis u la thrang ban long kum U Jisu, bad hapoh ka borktah bapynkylla-dur jong ka jingieit U Khrist u la kylla long shisha uba jemnud bad uba sngewrit. Ia ka lade la tep-buhrieh ha U Jisu.

U Ioannis u la ithuh ia U Nongpynim da ka jingtip kaba la iashem da ki kam-ka jingleh. Ia ki jinghikai jong U Kynrad jong u la oh shrong ha ka mynsiem jong u. Haba u la phla ia ka jingai-ei jong U Nongpynim, ka rukom kren basynlar jong u ka la long kaba pnah-ktien da ka jingieit kaba la rung longdoh-longsnam ha ka rynieng jong u baroh. KJA 258.2
