A Hyɛ Blema Baiblo ɔ Nɔ Nɛ A Ngma E Mi Munyu ɔ Fuu Kɛ Pue Si

Nihi nɛ a nine su Baiblo ɔ nɔ kekleekle, nɛ ji Israel bi ɔmɛ ɔ baa yi nɛ a hyɛ nɔ kɛ ngma e mi munyu ɔmɛ fuu kɛ pue si. Kaa nɔ hyɛmi nɔ́ ɔ, a de Israel matsɛmɛ ɔmɛ kaa ‘a ngma Mawu mlaa amɛ kɛ tsɔɔmi ɔmɛ kɛ je mlaa womi ɔ nitsɛ nɛ a kɛ wo osɔfo ɔmɛ nɛ ji Levi bi ɔmɛ a dɛ ɔ mi kɛ wo womi mi.’​—5 Mose 17:18.

Kaa nɔ hyɛmi nɔ́ ɔ, ngɛ jeha 168 loko a fɔ Kristo ɔ, Antiochus IV nɛ e ye Siria ma a nɔ ɔ bɔ mɔde kaa e ma kpata Baiblohi tsuo nɛ a hyɛ Hebri Ngmami ɔ nɔ kɛ ngma a hɛ mi ngɛ Palestina ma a mi tsuo. Yuda bi a yi nɔ sane womi ko de ke: “Womi kpo fɛɛ womi kpo nɛ mlaa a ngɛ mi nɛ a maa na a, a hiaa mi nɛ a sãa.” Womi nɛ ji Jewish Encyclopedia a de ke: “Nihi nɛ a ngɔ ní tsumi nɛ ɔ kɛ wo a dɛ ɔ kɛ abofu nɛ nya wa nitsɛ lɛ tsu nɔ́ nɛ ɔ.

Benɛ nihi nɛ a ngma Hela Ngmami ɔ aloo “Somi He ɔ” gbe a ní tsumi nya a, ni kpahi hyɛ níhi nɛ a ngma kɛ fɔ si ɔ nɔ nɛ a ngma e mi munyu ɔ kɛ wo womi kpahi a mi, nɛ enɛ ɔ ha nɛ gbami munyuhi kɛ níhi nɛ ya nɔ blema nɛ a bɔ he amaniɛ ngɛ Baiblo ɔ mi ɔ ba pɔ he wawɛɛ.
