Igice cya mbere cya Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya cyasohotse mu mwaka wa 1950. Kuva icyo gihe, hari abantu bagiye bayibazaho byinshi cyangwa bagashidikanya ko yaba ihinduye mu buryo buhuje n’ukuri a kubera ko hari aho ikoresha imvugo itandukanye n’iy’izindi Bibiliya. Uko kuyibazaho gushobora kuba guterwa n’imwe mu mpamvu zikurikira:

•   Ese ni iyo kwiringirwa? Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya ishingiye ku bushakashatsi bugezweho bwakozwe n’intiti mu bya Bibiliya, ikaba kandi ishingiye ku nyandiko za kera zizewe zandikishijwe intoki. Mu buryo bunyuranye n’ubwo, Bibiliya ya King James Version yo mu mwaka wa 1611 yari ishingiye ku nyandiko zandikishijwe intoki akenshi wasangaga zidahuje n’ukuri kandi zikaba zari zimaze igihe gito ugereranyije n’izakoreshejwe mu guhindura Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya.

•   Ese ihinduye neza? Abahinduye Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya bihatiye guhindura ubutumwa bwahumetswe n’Imana nk’uko buri koko (2 Timoteyo 3:​16). Abahinduzi benshi b’izindi Bibiliya ntibahinduye ubutumwa buturuka ku Mana nk’uko buri koko bitewe n’imigenzo y’abantu, urugero nko kuba barasimbuje izina bwite ry’Imana, ari ryo Yehova, amazina y’icyubahiro nk’Umwami n’Imana.

•   Ese ihinduye ijambo ku rindi? Hari ubuhinduzi bugenda busubiramo igitekerezo kimwe ariko mu yandi magambo. Icyakora Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya yo yahinduye ijambo ku rindi aho byashobokaga hose, mu gihe bidatuma igitekerezo kivugika nabi cyangwa ngo bitume igitekerezo cyo mu mwandiko w’umwimerere gipfukiranwa. Ubuhinduzi buvuga igitekerezo cyo mu mwandiko w’umwimerere mu yandi magambo bushobora kongeramo ibitekerezo by’abantu cyangwa bugakuramo ibitekerezo by’ingenzi.

 Ibitabo bitarimo. Bibiliya zahinduwe na Kiliziya Gatolika y’i Roma n’iz’Aborutodogisi zongewemo ibitabo bamwe bakunze kwita ibitabo bitahumetswe. Icyakora, ibyo bitabo ntibyari ku rutonde rw’ibitabo byemewe by’Abayahudi, kandi n’ubusanzwe Bibiliya ivuga ko Abayahudi ari bo “babikijwe amagambo yera y’Imana” (Abaroma 3:​1, 2). Ni yo mpamvu abahinduye Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya n’izindi Bibiliya nyinshi zo muri iki gihe basanze bikwiriye ko ibyo bitabo bitahumetswe bivamo.

 Imirongo y’Ibyanditswe itarimo. Hari Bibiliya zongerwamo imirongo n’interuro kandi bitaboneka mu nyandiko za kera cyane zandikishijwe intoki; icyakora Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya yo ntiyongerewemo ibyo bintu. Bibiliya nyinshi zo muri iki gihe zirinda kongeramo ayo magambo cyangwa zikagaragaza ko ayo magambo ataboneka mu nyandiko hafi ya zose z’umwimerere zizewe. b

 Ikoresha imvugo itandukanye n’iy’izindi Bibiliya. Hari igihe guhindura ijambo ku rindi bituma umwandiko utumvikana neza cyangwa bikaba byayobya umusomyi. Urugero, amagambo ya Yesu ari muri Matayo 5:3 akunze guhindurwamo ngo “hahirwa abakene mu mwuka” (English Standard Version; King James Version; New International Version). Abantu benshi basanga guhindura uwo murongo ijambo ku ijambo ngo “abakene mu mwuka” biheza umusomyi mu rujijo, mu gihe abandi bo batekereza ko Yesu yatsindagirizaga akamaro ko kwicisha bugufi cyangwa kuba umukene. Icyakora, Yesu yashakaga kumvikanisha ko ibyishimo nyakuri bituruka mu kumenya ko dukeneye ubuyobozi buva ku Mana. Bibiliya​—Ubuhinduzi bw’isi nshya yumvikanisha neza icyo Yesu yashakaga kuvuga igira iti “abazi ko bakeneye ibintu byo mu buryo bw’umwuka.”​—Matayo 5:3. c
