Frankly, it puzzled me. | nispa. |
This marvelous process was clearly designed by someone who wants us to be healthy. | Manan maypipas nitaq pipas kutichiyta atiwaqchu. |
So I was still left with the question, Why do people suffer and die? I couldn’t find an answer. | ¿Iskayarqankichu celulakuna tiemponpi wañunanpaq ruwasqa kasqanmanta? |
But you were convinced that the system of programmed cell death was designed. Yes. | Manan, cuerpopi celulakuna imayna funcionasqanta yachasqaywanqa anchatan admirakurqani. |
The complexity of the whole process is mind - boggling, yet its elegance displays exceptional wisdom. | Sumaq funcionasqanmi rikuchiwarqan ancha allin yachaywan ruwasqa kasqanta. |
I believe it’s the wisdom of God. | Chaypiqa Diospa yachayninmi kashan. |
I use powerful microscopes to study the many complex mechanisms that regulate the process. | Ñoqaqa celulakunata qhawanapaq ancha allin maquinakunawanmi estudiani celulakuna imayna funcionasqanta yachanaypaq. |
Some mechanisms can trigger the destruction process within seconds if need be. | Chaypin rikurqani imayna funcionasqanman hina iskay kinsa segundollapi qonqaylla celulakuna wañupusqanta. |
The cells participate in their own self - destruction. | Celulakunaqa kikillankumantan wañupunku. |
The process is so well - designed that it’s absolutely awe - inspiring. | ¡Chhayna sumaqta funcionananpaq ruwasqa kasqanqa ancha admirakunapaqmi! |
Since nearly all our cells are regularly replaced, living forever is certainly feasible | Celulanchiskuna wañuqtin rantinpi hukkuna rikhurimusqanmi rikuchin runakuna wiñaypaq kamasqa kasqanchista |
You had questions about God and suffering. How did you find answers? | ¿Imaynatan Diosmanta ñak’ariymantapas tapukusqaykiman sut’inchayta tarirqanki? |
A couple of Jehovah’s Witnesses called at my home in 1991, and I asked them why we die. | 1991 watapin iskay Testigokuna wasiyta hamurqanku, chaymi tapurqani imarayku runakuna wañusqanmanta. |
They showed me the Bible’s answer: “Through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin. ” | Paykunan Romanos 5: 12 textopi nisqanwan kutichiwarqanku, chaypin nin: “Imaynan huk runallawan huchaqa kay pachapi qallarirqan, huchawantaq wañuypas rikhurirqan ”, nispa. |
If the first man had not disobeyed God, he would have lived forever. | Sichus ñawpaq runa Diosta kasukunman karqan chayqa wiñaypaqmi kawsankuman karqan. |
I immediately realized that this harmonized with what I had learned from my research. | Chayta uyarispan repararqani chay willawasqan investigasqaywan tupasqanta. |
In fact, it’s clear to me that God didn’t intend for people to die. | Repararqanin runakunaqa mana wañunanpaqchu kamasqa kasqanta. |
Since nearly all our cells are regularly replaced, living forever is certainly feasible. | Celulanchiskuna wañuqtin chaykunaq rantinpi hukkuna rikhurimusqanmi rikuchin runakuna wiñaypaq kamasqa kasqanchista. |
What convinced you that the Bible is God’s Word? | ¿Iman yanaparqasunki Bibliata Diospa Siminta hinapuni qhawarinaykipaq? |
I learned what the Bible says about God at Psalm 139: 16: “Your eyes saw even the embryo of me, and in your book all its parts were down in writing. ” | Salmo 139: 16 textopi nisqanmi, chaypin nin: “Wiksallapiraq kashaqtiymi rikuwarqankiña. [...] |
As a biochemist, I study the genetic information that is written in our cells. | [Imaynachus kawsayniy kasqanmi] qelqaykipi qelqasqaña karqan ”, nispa. |
How did the psalmist know about such writing? | Ichaqa tapukuqmi kani: “¿Imaynapin salmista yacharqan celulakunapi chaykuna qelqasqa kasqanta? ” nispa. |
The more I learned from the Bible, the more I was convinced that it is inspired of God. | Chaymi Bibliata estudiaspa astawan repararqani Bibliaqa Diospa yuyaychasqanpuni kasqanta. |
How were you helped to understand what the Bible teaches? | ¿Imaynapin Bibliamanta astawan yacharqanki? |
One of Jehovah’s Witnesses offered to study the Bible with me. | Huk Testigon estudiota qowarqan. |
Finally, I learned why God has allowed suffering. | Chaypin yacharqani imaraykun Dios hinallata qhawan ñak’ariyta. |
I also learned that, as the Bible states, God purposes to “swallow up death forever. ” | Yacharqanin, Bibliaq nisqan hina ‘ Diosqa wiñaypaq wañuytapas chinkachinanta ’ (Isaías 25: 8). |
It will be easy for our Creator to make the marvelous systems of our body operate perfectly so that we can enjoy life without end. | Kamaqninchispaqqa manan sasachu kanqa cuerponchis ukhupi tukuy imatapas allinta funcionachinanpaq, chhaynapi wiñaypaq kusisqa kawsananchispaq. |
How have you used your knowledge of the Bible to help others? | ¿Imaynatan hukkunata yanaparqanki Bibliamanta yachasqaykiwan? |
Well, I became one of Jehovah’s Witnesses in 1995, and since then I have freely shared with others the things I’ve learned from the Bible. | 1995 watapin Jehová Diospa testigon kapurqani. |
For example, a colleague of mine was devastated when her brother committed suicide. | Chaymantapachan kallpachakuni Bibliapi yachasqayta runakunaman yachachinaypaq. |
Her church teaches that God never forgives suicide. | Huk llank’aqmasiymi sinchi llakisqapuni kasharqan turan kikillan wañuchikapusqanmanta. |
But I showed her how the Bible gives a hope of a resurrection. | Chaymi Bibliawan yachachirqani wañupuqkuna kawsarimpunanmanta. |
She was deeply comforted to learn that the Creator cares for us. | Anchatan kusikuni Dios ñoqanchispi interesakusqanta yachaspa. |
At such moments, I feel that sharing Bible truths with others brings me more satisfaction than science itself! | Runakunata chhaynata yanapaspan astawan kusikuni ciencia nisqapi tukuy yachasqaymantaqa. |
COVER SUBJECT | QALLARIYPI KAQ |
EACH day presents people with numerous opportunities to do kind things for others. It may appear, though, that many think only of themselves. | SAPA p’unchaymi hukkunapaq allinkunata ruwayta atisunman, ichaqa askha runakunan paykunallapi yuyaykunku. |
You see evidence of that nearly everywhere — from the shameless way people defraud others to the aggressive way they drive, from their crude language to their explosive tempers. | Chaytan sapa p’unchay rikuchinku: hukkunata engañaspa suwasqankupi, carronkuta comunta manejasqankupi, qhelli simikuna rimasqankupi, usqhaylla phiñakusqankupi ima. |
A me - first mentality also exists in many homes. | Familia ukhupipas kanmi paykunallapi yuyaykuq runakuna. |
For example, some spouses divorce simply because one partner feels that he or she “deserves better. ” | Wakinqa aswan allin qharita otaq warmita munapayaspan t’aqakapunku. |
Even some parents may unwittingly sow the seeds of a me - first spirit. | Hinaspapas kikin tayta - mamakunan mana reparakuspa wawankuman yachachinku paykunallapi yuyaykuq kayta. |
How? | ¿Imaynatan chayta ruwanku? |
By indulging their child’s every whim, while hesitating to administer any kind of discipline. | Tukuy munasqankuta qospa, mana allin ruwasqankumanta mana wanachispa ima. |
By contrast, many other parents are training their children to put others before self, and with great benefits. | Wakin tayta - mamakunan ichaqa wawankuman yachachinku hukkunapi interesakuyta, chaytan kasukuq wawakuna ruwashanku. |
Children who are considerate are more likely to make friends and to enjoy stable relationships. They are also more likely to be content. | Hukkunapi interesakuq wawakunaqa askha amigokunayoqmi kanku allintataqmi hukkunawan kawsankupas. |
Why? Because, as the Bible says, “there is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving. ” — Acts 20: 35. | Hinaspapas aswan kusisqan kawsanku, Bibliapunin nin: “Aswan kusisamiyoqqa qoqmi chaskiqmantaqa ”, nispa. |
If you are a parent, how can you help your children to reap the benefits of being kind and to avoid being contaminated by the self - absorbed culture that surrounds them? | Tayta - mama, ¿imaynatan wawaykita yanapawaq hukkunapi interesakunanpaq, payllapi yuyaykuq runakunawan mana samaykachikunanpaqpas? |
Consider three traps that could foster a me - first spirit in your children, and see how you can avoid those traps. | Chaypaq qhawarisun kinsa mana allin costumbrekunamanta, chaykunaman mana urmanapaq yanapaykunamantawan. |
The problem. | Sasachakuy. |
Researchers have noted a disturbing trend: Many young adults are entering the workforce with a marked sense of entitlement — an attitude in which they expect success, even if they have done little or nothing to earn it. | Investigaqkunan kayta repararqanku: llank’anaman chayllaraq haykuq askha wayna - sipaskunan pisita otaq mana imatapas ruwashaspa tukuy imapas allinkama kananpi yuyaykunku. |
Some just assume that they will be promoted quickly, even without mastering their trade. | Wakintaq imachus ruwanankuta manaraq allinta yachashaspa huk allin cargotaña chaskiyta munanku. |
Others are convinced that they are special and deserve to be treated that way — and then they become dejected when they realize that the world does not share their view. | Hukkunataq ancha allinpaq qhawarikunku, chaymi munanku hukkunapas chhayna qhawarinanta, común runata hinalla qhawariqtinkutaq pisikallpayapunku. |
What is behind it. | Imaynapi paqarin. |
Sometimes a sense of entitlement can be traced back to how a person was raised. | Chayqa hamun imayna uywasqa kasqankumantan. |
For example, some parents have been unduly influenced by the self - esteem movement that has become popular in recent decades. | Ura watakunallan rikhurimurqan kikinkuta allinpaq qhawarikuyta yachachiq t’aqakuna, paykunatan askha tayta - mamakuna qatikushanku. |
Its tenets seemed plausible: If a little praise is good for kids, a lot of praise is better. | Chay t’aqakunan kayta yachachinku: pisillapi wawata sumaqta rimapayasqaykiwan allinpaq qhawarikun chayqa, sapa kutilla rimapayasqaykiwanqa aswan allinpaqmi qhawarikunqa. |
On the other hand, the thinking was that showing any type of disapproval will only discourage a child. | Ima ruwasqantapas mana allinpaq qhawarinki chayqa pisichasqan sientekunqaku. |
And in a world on a mission to build self - esteem, that was considered the epitome of irresponsible parenting. | Chayta ruwaqqa manas allintachu tayta - mama kasqanta hunt’ashanman. |
Children must never be made to feel bad about themselves — or so parents were told. | Wawataqa manas hayk’aqpas pisipaq sientechinachu, chaytan tayta - mamakunaman yachachiqku. |
Many fathers and mothers thus began lavishing a constant flow of praise upon their children, even when those children did nothing particularly praiseworthy. | Askha tayta - mamakunan wawankuta yanqamanta alabayta qallarirqanku. |
Each accomplishment, no matter how small, was celebrated; each indiscretion, no matter how large, was overlooked. | Imallatapas ruwayrusqankumantan fiestataraq ruwaqku, huchallirukuqtinkutaq lliwta pampachaqku. |
Those parents believed that the secret to building self - esteem was to ignore the bad and praise everything else. | Chay tayta - mamakunan yuyaykuqku wawanku allinpaq qhawarikunankupaqqa tukuy pantasqankuta pampachananku kasqanta tukuy ruwasqankutataq alabananku kasqanta. |
Making children feel good about themselves became more important than teaching them to accomplish things that they could actually feel good about. | Wawanku kusikuyta tarinankupaq allinkuna ruwayta yachachinankumantaqa allin sientekunallankupin yuyaykuqku. |
What the Bible says. | Biblian yachachin. |
The Bible acknowledges that praise is appropriate when it is deserved. | Biblian willan pitapas allin ruwasqanmanta alabay allin kasqanta. |
But praising children simply to make them feel good may cause them to develop a distorted view of themselves. | Ichaqa allin sientekunanraykulla wawata alabaqtinkuqa hatunchakuytan qallarinman. |
The Bible aptly states: “If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he is deceiving his own mind. ” For good reason, the Bible tells parents:“ Don’t fail to correct your children. | Biblian nin: “Pipas mana imapas kashaspa aswan allin kasqanta yuyan chayqa, pay kikintan q’otukun ”, nispa. |
You won’t kill them by being firm. ” * — Proverbs 23: 13, Contemporary English Version. | Chaymi tayta - mamata nin: “Wawachus wanachinapaq kaqtinqa, payta wanachiy ”, nispa (Proverbios 23: 13). * |
What you can do. | Kaytan ruwawaq. |
Make it your goal to give correction when it is needed and commendation when it is genuinely deserved. | Wawayki ima mana allintapas ruwaqtinqa wanachiy, allinkunata ruwaqtintaq alabay. |
Do not dole out praise just to make your children feel good about themselves. | Ichaqa aman sapa rato kusisqa sientekunanraykullaqa alabankichu. |
Likely, it will not work. | Chayqa manan imapipas yanapanqachu. |
“True self - confidence comes from honing your talents and learning things, ” says the book Generation Me,“ not from being told you’re great just because you exist. ” | Huk libron nin: “Allin confianzata hap’inapaqqa imapas ruway atisqaykitan ruwanayki, huk ruwaykunatan yachanayki, manan kawsasqaykiraykullachu pipas alabanasuyki ”, nispa (Kay tiempopi wawakunaqa paykunallapi yuyaykunku, inglés simipi). |
“Do not think of yourself more highly than you should. Instead, be modest. ” — Romans 12: 3, Good News Translation | “Ama pipas aswan allinpuni kasqanta yuyakuchunchu, aswanpas pay kikin imaynachus kasqallanta yuyakuchun. ” |
The problem. | Sasachakuy. |
Many young adults entering the workforce seem ill - prepared to cope with adversity. | Llank’anaman chayllaraq haykuq wakin wayna - sipaskunan mana preparasqachu kanku sasachakuykunata atipanankupaq. |
Some are devastated by the slightest criticism. | Wakinmi mana ima niykuna kanku, wakintaq munasqankuman hina llank’anakunallata maskhanku. |
Others are finicky and will accept only work that meets their highest expectations. For example, in the book Escaping the Endless Adolescence, Dr. | Joseph Allen psicologon huk waynata llank’ananpaq tapusqa, waynataq nisqa: “Yaqachus hina aburrikunapaq kay llank’ana kanqa, ñoqaqa manan chhayna llank’anataqa munaymanchu ”, nispa. |
Joseph Allen tells of a young man who said to him during a job interview: “I get the sense that sometimes parts of the work can be a little boring, and I don’t want to be bored. ” | Chaymi psicólogo nirqan: “Chay waynaqa manachus hina entienderqanchu llapa llank’anapi imallapas aburrikunapaq kasqanta. |
Dr. Allen writes: “He didn’t seem to understand that all jobs have some boring elements. How did one make it to age twenty - three without knowing that? ” | ¿Imaynapin huk wayna 23 watayoq kanankama mana chayta yachanmanchu? ”, nispa (¿Imatan ruwayman kurak runata hina tratawanankupaq?, inglés simipi). |
What is behind it. | Imaynapi paqarin. |
In recent decades, many parents have felt compelled to protect their children from any type of adversity. | Askha tayta - mamakunan mana munankuchu wawanku ima sasachakuypipas rikukunankuta. |
Your daughter failed a test? Intervene and demand that the teacher raise the grade. | Examenpi mana allin notata horqomuqtinkun tayta - mamanku profesorwan rimaq rinku allin notata churananpaq. |
Your son received a traffic ticket? Pay the fine for him. | Carrota comunta manejasqankumanta papeletata churachikuqtinkun tayta - mamanku rispa multata pagamunku. |
A failed romance? Lay all the blame on the other person. | Parlaqmasin saqepuqtintaq parlaqmasinta tukuymanta tumpanku. |
While it is natural to want to protect your children, overprotecting them can send the wrong message — that they do not need to take responsibility for their actions. | Allinmi tayta - mamakuna wawankuta cuiday munasqanku, ichaqa sinchita imamantapas cuidayta munanqaku chayqa wawankun ima ruwasqankutapas hinata qhawarparinqaku. |
“Instead of learning that they can survive pain and disappointment, and even learn from it, ” says the book Positive Discipline for Teenagers,“ [such] children grow up extremely self - centered, convinced that the world and their parents owe them something. ” | Disciplina positiva para adolescentes nisqa libron nin: “Ima sasachakuytapas ima nanaytapas aguantayta yachanankumantaqa otaq allinkuna ruwayta yachanankumantaqa, paykunallapi sinchita yuyaykuspan wiñanqaku, tayta - mamankupas llapa runakunapas paykunawan manu kashankuman hina ”, nispa. |
What the Bible says. | Biblian yachachin. |
Adversity is a part of life. | Kay tiempopiqa llapapaqmi sasachakuykuna kan. |
In fact, the Bible says: “Bad things happen to everyone! ” That includes good people. | Bibliapunin willan ‘ sapanka imaynapipas rikukunanta ’ (Eclesiastés 9: 11). |
The Christian apostle Paul, for example, endured all manner of hardship during the course of his ministry. | Apóstol Pablopas Diosta servispan imaymana sasachakuykunapi tarikurqan. |
Yet, facing up to adversity benefited him! He wrote: “I have learned, in whatever circumstances I am, to be self - sufficient.... | Ichaqa allinninpaqmi karqan, chaymi pay kikin nirqan: “Ñoqaqa yachanin imaynapiña kaspapas kusisqallapuni kawsayta. |
I have learned the secret of both how to be full and how to hunger, both how to have an abundance and how to suffer want. ” — Philippians 4: 11, 12. | [...] yachasqan kani: saksasqa kaspapas, yarqasqa kaspapas, askha kawsayniyoq kaspapas, pisi kawsayniyoq kaspapas ”, nispa. |
What you can do. | Kaytan ruwawaq. |
Taking into account the maturity level of your children, strive to follow the Bible principle: “We each must carry our own load. ” | Wawaykikunaq wiñasqanman hinan yachachiwaq ‘ sapankanku [...] q’epinkuta apakunankupaq ’. |
If your son receives a traffic ticket, it might be best to let him pay the fine out of his allowance or salary. | Carrota comunta manejasqanmanta papeletata churachikamun chayqa pay kikinmi qolqenwan pagamunan. |
If your daughter fails a test, perhaps that should be a wake - up call to her so that next time she will be better prepared. | Examenpi mana allin notata horqomuqtinqa pay kikinmi kallpachakunan aswan allinta estudiananpaq. |
If your son experiences the breakup of a romance, comfort him — but at the appropriate time help him to reflect on questions such as, ‘ In hindsight, has this experience revealed any ways in which I need to grow? ’ | Parlaqmasin saqepun chayqa kallpachay, ichaqa yanapay kay hina tapuykunapi yuyaymanananpaq: “¿Ñoqapi mana allin ruwayta rikuspachu saqepuwan? ” nispa. |
Children who work through their problems build resilience and self - confidence — assets they might lack if someone was constantly rescuing them. | Sasachakuyninkuta paykuna kikinkumanta allichaq wayna - sipaskunan allin takyasqa kapunku manataqmi iskayankuchu imata ruwanankupaqpas, sichus tayta - mama tukuypi yanapanqa chayqa manan chaykunata yachanqakuchu. |
“Let each one prove what his own work is, and then he will have cause for exultation. ” — Galatians 6: 4 | “Sapanka pay kikinpa kawsasqanta allinta qhawakuchun, hinaspa [...] chaylIawan kusikuchun. ” |
