< Hebrews 11 >

1 Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.
Nene uyinnu sa uyenu, unere uyinnuari ule na unit dumun, idinin nayi akone ncaa nimomon, utabbas nimon ile na isa yene ba.
2 For by this, the elders obtained approval.
Bara nanere acif bite iwa yinin nighinu bara uyinnu mine sa uyenu.
3 By faith, we understand that the ages (aiōn g165) have been aligned by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.
Kiti nyinnu sa uyenuari, tina yinin nworu iwasu makekewa kiti nbellu Kutelle, bara nworo imon ile na iwadi nyenju ba, iwa ke nanya nimon ile na idi sa uyenju. (aiōn g165)
4 By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks.
Uwadi kitene nyinnu sa uyenuari Habila wanii Kutelle uzaka dedeii na nafo gwane Kayinu ba, uwasa bara nanere iwa rughe bara lidu lilau, kutelle wa rughe bara uzaka na awa nii, bara nanere Habila duu nliru, nworu ana mal ukuu.
5 By faith Enoch was taken away, so that he would not see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenuari wadi na iwa yaun Enok ku udu kitene na awa yenu ukuul ba, na iwa seghe ba, “Bara iwa woro awa poo Kutelle ayi kamin iwa yaun ghe udu kitene kani.
6 Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.
Tiwasa tipoo Kutelle ayi ba, asa ti dira uyinnu sa uyenu, bara ulenge na aba dak kiti Kutelle gbarsari ayinin au aduku, nin nworu adin nizu uduk kiti nalenge na idin piziru ghe.
7 By faith Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared a ship for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
uwadi nin yinnu sa uyenuari, Kutelle was gbaru Nufu ku, mbellen nimon ile na Isa yene ba, nin durtu Kutelle akee uzirgi bara usu tucu kilari mye, bara usu nani amini wati uyu lawa anan ncaah nkuul, bara iwa da lawa anan fiu, Kutelle na udin dasu kiti nyinnu sa uyenu.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he went.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenuari wati Ibrahim ku, kubi na Kutelle was yicilaghe, adofino anya udu kiti kanga na aba seru nafo ugadu, ame tinna anya sa uyiru kiti kaa na aba du.
9 By faith he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a land not his own, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenuari wati ghe adi so nkan kipin nafo kumara, adi so kudanga nin Ishaku a Yakubu, adodong ngadu nalikwali arume.
10 For he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
Nanere wadi bara ame wa yene ubun kiti nalenge na inughere wa kagbire ulenge na unan mbo likiye nin kewe di Kutelle.
11 By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised.
Nin nyinnu sauyenuari Ibrahim nin wani mye saraya, iwa seru likara nmaru kube na iwadi ikunno gbongbong, na iwa yene Kutelle ulle na iba yinnu ninghe, ulenge na ana su nani alikawali ngono.
12 Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.
Bara nani tutun, unuzu nnit ulere ulenge na awa dak susut nkuu awa macu akara gbardang iwa so gbardang nafo iyini kitene kani, nafo licicin kurawa longo na iwasa iguro ba.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
Inughe vat wa kuzu sa useru nalikwali, nin nani iwa iyinna yene nin nse nmahabi a idutu piit, iyinna inug amarari nanya inye.
14 For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
Bara alenge na iwa bellin ile ione wa nutun fong nworu idin piziru nilari nati mine.
15 If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.
Kidegen andi idin kpilizu mbellen kipin kanga na ina nuzuku, iwa se kubin nkpillu.
16 But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
Bara iwadi ncisu kibinai kipin kicine kinnere kitene kani, bara nani na Kutelle wa lanza icing iyicilaghe Kutelle mine ba, tunda na ana kele kagbir bara inughe.
17 By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his only born son,
Uwadi nanya nyinnu sa uyenu, nworo Ibrahim kubi na iwa dumunghe anii Ishaku ku, eh ame ulenge nin liburi liboo awa seru alikawali awa nii gono mye kirume cas.
18 to whom it was said, “Your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac,”
Kitene nghari iwa bellin “unuzu Ishaku iba yicilu likura fe?
19 concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenu wati, Ishaku nin Yakubu ku nmari kitene nimon ncin dak.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenu kubi na awa cinu ukuu atah vat nonon Yusufu nmari, Yusufu tumuno Kutelle ayedine litin nca mye.
22 By faith Joseph, when his end was near, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenu, Yusufu na imalin mye ndah, alira nbellen nsunu nono Isiraila umasar, a belle nani iyiru akuu mye nanghinu.
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenu, Musa kubi nmaru mye, annit was nyeshe ghe tipui titat, bara iwa yene ame gonari kicaut, na iwa lanza fiu nduka ngo ba.
24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,
Nin nyinnu sa uyenu, nworu Musa kubi na awa kunoo, anari iyiciliaghe gono nshono ngo Firiauna.
25 choosing rather to share ill treatment with God’s people than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,
Nin nani afere ukosu nniu nan nanit Kutelle nan nworu alanza nmang un kulapi kubi baat.
26 considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
Awa yene ulanzu ncin ndortu Kutelle nafo use nimon nacara ri gbardang, ikatin imon nmasar, bara adin ncisu iyizi mye nse nduk unbun.
27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenuari, Musa wa suun umasar, na aw ba, bara awa ti ayi akone nyenju nlenge na idi nyenjughe baa latiza fiu tinana nayi ngo ba, bara awa ti ayi akone nyenju nlenge na id nyenju ghe ba.
28 By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenu awa su ubukin nkallu nkul nin zaminu nmii, bara unan nmolusu nonon nfari wa dudo nonon nfari Isiraila.
29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.
Nanya nyinnu sa uyenuari ingu wa kafin kurawa kushine nafo kuteen ku kone, kubi na amasarawa wa woro isu nani, kurawe mila nani.
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenuari azunu njeriko wa disu, kubi na iwa kiilin nanya nayiri kuzor.
31 By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.
Nin nyinnu sa uyenari Rahap ukilaki, awa nanna nan nalenge na iwa salin ndortu nliru, bara awa seru anan piziru nyinnu asu nani acine lau.
32 What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets—
Ani iyaghari nbakuru nbellina? bara na kubi ba batini nwan bellin ubellen nan Gidiyon, Barak, Samsin, Jefita, Dauda, Samela, nan Kagisin na nan nliru nin nnu Kutelle.
33 who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
Alenge kiti nyinnu mine sa uyennu iwa lii likara nilari tigo, isu katuwa kacine, isere alikwali itursu tinuu nazaki.
34 quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, grew mighty in war, and caused foreign armies to flee.
Ibico likara nlah, ukaala litang kieo, ishino nanya tikonu, iso anan naggan kiti likum, ita a soja amara ico.
35 Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
Awani ba seru abbi nalenge na iba fiu nani, among iwati nani ineo, na iwa yinin ibunku nani ba, bara inan se ufitu nanya nkul ucine,
36 Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.
Kagisine wa neo nin ba'a nan ngbizu, eh nin ninyeng nan licin.
37 They were stoned. They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated—
Iwa filisu nani nin natala, iwuco nani, asari aba, iwa kalizu nami ata nin kusangali, itunna ngalu nin nakpa nakam, nan niyin, iwa so hem, imono nani nanzang.
38 of whom the world was not worthy—wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
Bara inughe na uyee was caun nani ba, ngalu nanya kusho, nan nakup, a ataii, nan nagbongbon kuteen.
39 These all, having been commended for their faith, did not receive the promise,
Vat nani Kutelle wa yinin nin nighinu, bara uyinu sa uyenu mine, na iwa seru imon ile na iwa su nani alikawale ba.
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
Kutelle se nani imomon dedei, ile imon na ikatin kiti bete, nanya noru sa arike, na iwa yitu lau ba.
