Ŵaebulania 4
1 Pakuŵa Akunnungu atupele chilanga cha kupochela chipumulilo, nipele tulilolechesye kuti jwalijose mwa ŵanyamwe akalepela kuchipata chipumulilo cho.
Let us fear, therefore, lest while there is a firm promise of entering into his rest, any among you should be found coming short of entering.
2 Pakuŵa nowe ŵakwe twalalichilwe Ngani Jambone kwa litala lilalila mpela iyatite pakulalichilwa kwa ŵanyawo. Nambo utenga wo nganiwakamuchisya chachili chose pakuŵa aŵala ŵaŵapilikene nganaupochela mu chikulupi.
For to us also is the announcement, as well as to them: but the word they heard did not profit them, because it was not mingled with the faith of those who heard it.
3 Nambo uweji ŵatukulupilile tutujinjile mu chipumulilo cho mpela iŵatite kusala, “Natumbile ni nalumbile kuti ‘Ngaajinjila peuto pakupumulila pangu,’” Akunnungu ŵatite yeleyo namuno masengo go gamasile chitandile paŵagumbile chilambo.
But we, who have believed, do enter into rest. But as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, that they shall not enter into my rest: for lo, the works of God existed from the foundation of the world.
4 Pakuŵa, mu liuto line Mmalembo Gamaswela gakuti, “Akunnungu ŵalesile kupanganya masengo gao gose pa lyuŵa lya saba, ŵapumulile”
As he said of the sabbath, God rested on the seventh day from all his works.
5 Ni mu ngani jo liuto lyo likusala, “Ngaajinjila ng'o mu chilambo chachinjapa kuti apumulile.”
And here again, he said, They shall not enter into my rest.
6 Ŵandu ŵaŵalalichilwe Ngani Jambone kundanda nganapochela chipumulilo ligongo nganaajitichisya. Namuno chilanga cho chipali chiŵela kwa ŵane kupochela.
Therefore, because there was a place, whither one and another might enter; and those earlier persons, to whom the announcement was made, entered not, because they believed not:
7 Kwa ligongo lyo, Akunnungu aŵisile sooni lyuŵa lyalikuŵilanjikwa “Lelo.” Yaka yejinji yapite nombewo ŵasasile kwa litala li che Daudi nti Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti kusala, “Lelo mwapilikanaga Akunnungu ali nkuŵecheta kasinjilimbisya mitima jenu.”
again he established another day, a long time afterwards; as above written, that David said, Today, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
8 Pakuŵa ikaliji che Yoshua ŵapele ŵandu liuto lya kupumulila, Akunnungu ngaakaŵechete sooni nkati yeleyo lyuŵa line.
For if Joshua, the son of Nun, had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterwards of another day.
9 Kwayele, kupali kupumulila kwa ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu mpela iŵatite pakupumulila Akunnungu pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
Therefore it is established, that the people of God are to have a sabbath.
10 Pakuŵa ŵandu wose ŵakwinjila peuto pakupumulila paakupakunguluchila Akunnungu, chaleche masengo gao ni kupumulila mpela Akunnungu iŵatite pakuleka masengo gao ni kupumulila.
For he who had entered into his rest, hath also rested from his works, as God did from his.
11 Nipele, tulimbichile kuchipochela chipumulilo cho, kuti akapagwa mundu mwa ŵanyamwe juchakose kwinjila mpela ila aŵala ŵaŵakanile kwitichisya.
Let us, therefore, strive to enter into that rest; lest we fall short, after the manner of them who believed not.
12 Pakuŵa Liloŵe lya Akunnungu lili lyejumi ni likwete machili. Likutema kupunda lipanga lyalikutema kuŵili. Sooni likupeleta mpaka munkati mwaukusimana ntima ni mbumu, iyoyo likutema ni kupeleta mpaka papakulumbikana iŵalo ni wongo wa mmaupa. Nombelyo likukombola kulamula kwa chitema maganisyo ni miningwa ja mitima ja ŵandu.
For the word of God is living, and all-efficient, and sharper than a two-edged sword, and entereth even to the severance of the soul and the spirit, and of the joints and the marrow and the bones, and judgeth the thoughts and reasonings of the heart:
13 Ngapagwa chindu chachikusisikwa paujo pa Akunnungu nambo indu yose ili yeunukukwe paujo pao, ŵelewo ni ŵakulamula indu yose itutesile.
neither is there any creature, which is concealed from before him; but every thing is naked and manifest before his eyes, to whom we are to give account.
14 Nipele, pakuŵa tukwete Jwambopesi Jwankulu jwakwinjila kwinani kwa Akunnungu, yaani Che Yesu Mwana jwa Akunnungu, tukamulisye kwannope chikulupi chitukuchisala.
Seeing then that we have a great High Priest, Jesus the Messiah, the son of God, who hath ascended to heaven; let us persevere in professing him.
15 Jwambopesi Jwankulu ni jwakutukolela chanasa kwa kulepetala kwetu. Ŵelewo ŵalinjikwe mose yalumo ni uweji nambo nganatenda sambi.
For we have not a high priest, who cannot sympathize with our infirmity; but one who was tempted in all respects like us, aside from sin.
16 Kwa ligongo lyo, tuchiŵandichile pangali woga chitengu cha ulamusi cha Akunnungu papali ni umbone, kuti tupochele chanasa ni umbone wakwe wa kutukamuchisya pa katema ka kulaga.
Let us, therefore, approach with assurance to the throne of his grace, that we may obtain mercy, and may find grace for assistance in the time of affliction.
