Itorero na Leta ku Rugamba
Iyo nyamaswa yahawe imbaraga ngo imare amezi mirongo ine n’abiri. Ubuhanuzi nawe
aravuga ati: “Mbona umwe mu mitwe yayo usa n’ukomeretse uruguma rwica.” Arongera
akavuga ati: “Nihagira ujyana abandi ho iminyago, na we ubwe azajyanwa ho umunyago:
kandi uwicisha abandi inkota, na we akwiriye kwicishwa inkota.” Amezi mirongo ine n’abiri
ahwanye “n’igihe n’ibihe n’igice cy’igihe,” imyaka itatu n’igice cyangwa iminsi 1260, yo
muri Daniyeli 7, icyo kikaba ari igihe ubupapa bwamaze burenganya abantu b’Imana. Iki gihe
nk’uko cyavuzwe mu bice bibanza, cyatangiranye no guhabwa isumbwe k’ubupapa mu
mwaka wa 538 N.K kandi kirangira mu mwaka wa 1798 N.K. Icyo gihe (mu 1798) Papa
yafashwe n’ingabo z’Abafaransa zimujyanaho umunyago, maze ubupapa bukomereka
uruguma rwica, bityo ibyari byaravuzwe birasohora ngo: “Nihagira ujyana abandi ho
iminyago, na we ubwe azajyanwa ho umunyago.”
Kuri iyi ngingo hongera kuvugwa ikindi kimenyetso. Umuhanuzi aravuga ati: “Nuko
mbona indi nyamaswa izamuka iva mu butaka. Iyo yo yari ifite amahembe abiri
nk’ay’umwana w’intama.” (Ibyahishuwe 13:11). Uko iyi nyamaswa isa ndetse n’uburyo
yadutse byerekana ko ishyanga ishushanya ritandukanye n’andi mahanga yavuzwe mu
bimenyetso byabanje. Daniyeli yeretswe ubwami bukomeye bwategetse isi mu bigereranyo
by’inyamaswa zo mu ishyamba zaje zikurikiranye ubwo ‘imiyaga ine yo mu ijuru
yahubukiraga mu nyanja nini.” 611 Mu Byahishuwe 17, umumarayika yasobanuye ko “amazi
agereranya abantu, amoko menshi, amahanga menshi n’indimi nyinshi.” 612 Imiyaga
ishushanya intambara. Imiyaga ine yo mu ijuru ihuha mu nyanja nini, yerekana ibintu bibi
bikabije byabaye mu ntambara no kwivumbagatanya izo ingoma zakoresheje ngo zigere ku
butegetsi.
Ariko inyamaswa ifite amahembe nk’ay’umwana w’intama yo yari ‘ivuye mu butaka.”
Mu cyimbo cyo guhirika izindi ngoma ngo yimike iyayo, iryo shyanga ryagereranyijwe
n’inyamaswa ivuye mu butaka ryavutse ahantu hatari hasanzwe hagenzurwa (hatuwe
n’abantu) kandi ryakuze buhoro buhoro no mu buryo bw’amahoro. Iyo nyamaswa
ntiyakomotse mu bihugu by’amahanga yo mu Isi ya kera, ari byo byagereranyaga n’inyanja
yivumbagatanya y’“amoko menshi, amahanga menshi n’indimi nyinshi.” Yakomotse ku
Mugabane w’Uburengerazuba.
None se ni ikihe gihugu cy’ahiswe Isi Nshya cyakuraga gikomera mu mwaka wa 1798
N.K, kikaba cyaragaragarwagaho ko kizagira ububasha no gukomera ndetse kigakurura
intekerezo z’abatuye isi? Gukoresha ibimenyetso nta kibazo kirimo. Ishyanga rimwe, kandi
rimwe gusa, ni ryo ryuzuza ibyavuzwe n’ubu buhanuzi. Bwerekeje mu buryo
budashidikanywaho kuri Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika. Inshuro nyinshi, igitekerezo
ndetse hafi y’amagambo yose yakoreshejwe n’umwanditsi w’inyandiko zera, mu buryo
butagambiriwe, byagiye bikoreshwa n’abanditsi b’amateka basobanura ukwaduka no gukura
by’iryo shyanga. Inyamaswa yabonetse ‘izamuka iva mu butaka’ kandi dukurikije
abasobanuzi, ijambo ryakoreshejwe ryo “kuzamuka” mu busobanuro butimbitse rivuga
“ukumbura, ugupfupfunuka nk’ikimera.” Kandi nk’uko twabibonye, iryo shyanga rigomba
