Haba U Blei U kular iano iano ne ia kano kano U pyndep ia kata kaba U la kular. Ha kane ka text (1 Ki Syiem 11:37-38), ka kyndon kaba U Blei U buh ia u Jeroboam ha shwa ba Un pynlong ia u u syiem jong ki Israel ka long, ba u Jeroboam udei ban kohnguh ia U Blei bad ban leh tang ia kata kaba dei ha khmat jong U. Hynrei hadien ba u Jeroboam ula long u Syiem jong ki Israel, u la sdang ban saitlah ia U Blei bad u la pynlong ia ka hima ka jong u ban mane ia ki bleithaw (1 Ki Syiem 12:25-33), bad ka jingmih na kata ka jingbymkohnguh ka jong u ka long ba ia kiba hiar pateng na u Jeroboam baroh ki shah pyniap (1 Ki Syiem 14).
U Blei lyngba kane ka ktien ka jong U, U iai pynkynmaw man ka por ia ki khun Israel ia ka jingdonkam ban kohnguh ia U. Hato ka jingkohnguh ka long kaba donkam ba U Blei U iai pynkynmaw borabor? Hato ngi ruh ngi la nang mo ban kohnguh ia U Blei ha ka jingim ka jong ngi kaba manla ka sngi? Ka jingkohnguh ia U Blei ha ngi, kadei kaba ngin pyndem ia ka mon ka jong ngi ha ka mon ka jong U Blei, ngin ai noh ia ka jinglaitluid ka jong ngi ba U Blei Un pyniaid ia ka jingim ka jong ngi. Ha ka jinglong briew, bunsien ngi kwah ym ia ka jinglaitluid hynrei ia ka jinglaitlan, ba ngin leh katba ngi mon, ngim kwah ban kohnguh ne ban pyndem hano hano. Haba ngi kohnguh ia U Blei Un kyrkhu ia ngi kumba long ia u Jeroboam ba lyngba ka jingkohnguh ka jong u, ba U Blei U la pynlong ia u u syiem jong ki Israel. Hynrei, lada ngi saitlah ia U, ka jingjot ka ap ia ka jingim ka jong ngi kumba ka la long ia u Jeroboam bad ia ka iing ka sem ka jong u (1 Ki Syiem 14:14). Haba ngi kohnguh ia U Blei ka mut ruh ba ngi kohnguh ia ki hukum ki jong U. U Dietrich Bonhoeffer, ha ka kot ka jong u kaba u ai kyrteng “My Soul Finds Rest in God Alone: Reflections on the Psalms” u thoh, “No one can say yes to God's ways who has said no to his promises and commandments. Acceptance of the will of God comes in the daily submission under his Word” (Ym don mano mano u ban ong hooid ia ki lynti ki jong U Blei u ban dang ong em ia Ki Kular bad ia Ki Hukum ki jong U. Bad ka jingpdiang ban leh ia ka mon ka jong U Blei ka wan dei haba ngi nang ban pyndem man ka sngi ha Ka Ktien ka jong U Blei).
Jingduwai: - “Ah Trai, iarap ia nga ba ngan lah ban pyndem man ka sngi ha ka mon ka jong Me, ban leh tang ia kaei kaba Me ong ia nga ban leh” - Amen
U Blei un kyrkhu,
