But they appreciate the privilege of encouraging others to learn from the Bible so as to base their choice in matters of worship upon that solid foundation .

But these three articles will deepen our appreciation for several qualities of Jehovah that are studied less often .

But as Jesus ' listeners knew , God 's prophets had long foretold that the Messiah , a Savior chosen by God , would rule a Kingdom that would change the world .
|
Fhedzi samusi vhathetshelesi vha Yesu vho vha vha tshi zwi d ̭ ivha , vhaporofita vha Mudzimu vho dzula vho amba uri Messia , Mutshidzi o nangwaho nga Mudzimu , o vha a tshi d ̭ o vhusa Muvhusoni we wa vha u tshi d ̭ o shandula shango .
|
But Jehovah always made sure that I had what I needed .
|
Fhedzi tshifhinga tshoṱhe Yehova o ita vhungoho ha uri ndi wana zwine nda zwi ṱod ̭ a .
|
But responding in kind to disparaging comments does not produce good results .
|
Fhedzi u aravha nga nd ̭ ila i si yavhud ̭ i i fanaho na yavho a zwi vhi na mvelelo dzavhud ̭ i .
|
But in so thinking , they miss the point Jesus was making .
|
Fhedzi u humbula nga u ralo , zwi ita uri vha xelelwe nga mbuno ya zwe Yesu a vha a tshi khou zwi bvisela khagala .
|
But those lacking an education may be more easily deceived and exploited than others , since they cannot read material that exposes such deceptions .
|
Fhedzi u shaya pfunzo zwi nga ita uri vhaṅwe vha fhuriwe nga hu leluwaho u fhirisa vhaṅwe , ngauri a vha koni u vhala bugu dzine dza amba nga honoho vhufhura .

But their preaching is limited to sermons at church , on television , or on the Internet , or they may simply tell others how they learned about Jesus .
|
Fhedzi vha huwelela dzikerekeni , kha thelevishini kana kha Inthanethe kana vha sokou vhudza vhathu nga ha nd ̭ ila ye vha guda ngayo nga ha Yesu .

But then sisters approach me , give me a hug , and say I look pretty .

|
Anyhow , they asked me first , and I said they could go . "
|
Fhedzi vho thoma nga u nkhumbela nahone nda vha tendela uri vha ye . "
|
But this does not mean that Jehovah expects us to endure in our own wisdom or strength .
|
Fhedzi zwenezwi a zwi ambi uri Yehova u lavhelela uri ri kond ̭ elele ri tshi shumisa vhuṱali kana nungo dzashu .
|
But this hateful act will be turned into a blessing .

Fhedzi zwenezwi zwithu zwivhi zwi d ̭ o shanduka zwa vha phaṱutshedzo .

But it can also be delightful , and understanding " the deep things of God " is not too difficult .

Fhedzi zwi nga dovha zwa takadza vhukuma , nahone u pfesesa " mativha a zwiphiri a Mudzimu " a zwi kond ̭ i .
