Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.
zizan nyme kri bgangban nitu kpi wa wu yo sron nitu ma ni kpanyme ndi a hi janji kpiwa wurhihe u to ni shishi
2 For by this, the elders obtained approval.
nitu kima batre ndindi nitu nyme u ba baci bi sen
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.
nitu nyme kri gbangban ki mla to ndi irji a ti ngbungblu ni tre u nyuma nda du kpi wa bahe ndendeme du ba ti ba rhini kpi wa bana to ba ni shishi na (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.
a he nitu krigbangban ni nyme u habila mba a nu irji ton ndindi wa a zan wu kainu nitu kima ba nyme nikri tsatsra ma e irji a gbresan ndindi nituma mba ton wa anua nitu krigbangban habila rhisi tre niwame a kwu ye
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.
ana nitu nyme ni gbangban u Enoch mba ba baun ndana du to kwu na bana too na nitu irji a baun niwa bane rhihr u baun hon ba hla tre ndindi nituma ndi anu irji sisron
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.
zizan hama ni nyme kri gbangban nko u nu irji se a kpanyme ndi a he nda ni han ndindi ni bi wa wawa
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.
a he ni nyme kri gbangban Noah mba niwa a kpa lan tondu nitu kpiwa a rhihe u rhu tsro ni sisiri iji a me jirgi ma wa a kpa bi mikoma chuwo nitu ti kima a chon nyu gbubgblu nda kma rhukri tsatra too hpu biwa kri nitu nyme krigbangban
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.
a he ni tu nyme krigbangban Ibrahim mba niwa ba yoaa wo yo a nda rhuhu hi ni bubu wa ani hi kpa ti u ma a rhuhi hama ni to bubu waa sia hia
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.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban mba a ka son ni meme u alkawali too inji wu meme kora a ta kru ni mi bru tenti baba Ishaku mba Yakubu mro vayi hpu a alkawali riri kima
10 For he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
a sia yaa hi ko shishi igbu wa a he nchimema wandi ndi u tsra mba me na a hi irji
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.
a he nitu nyme kri gbangban saratu wa ana he ni krju ibrahim a kpa gbengblen u grji vren i wayi a he toki niwa me ana chebran a kpanyme ni tre gbangban u waa nuu alkawalia bari ba he ni mye tre nitu kaa ana nyme krigbangban ibrahim ka saratu mba basia tre tuma nitu kri gbangban saratu niwame a bhe a kpa gbengbblen u kpa vren niwane ana che bran u wrji ne vren nitu a to ndi wawu wa a nu alkawali ani kri abangban ni tu tre ma
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.
nikima rhini inji ri kii wandi me ana rhu na wa a mla kwuye ba grjhi ihpu gbugbuuu to tsintsen ni shulu mba u kau bla too yashi ni nyu kpantre ma
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.
a he niyu nyme kri gbangban mba biyi ba kwu hama ni kpa alkawali ba hama nikii hu gon wa ba to nda chu rhini ni gbugban ba nyme ndi bana bi meme bako ra baba biwa ba rhuye kii ni meme na
14 For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
biwa ba tre kpi biki ba rhuki ni hla ni ra ndi ba si wa ko u meme mba
15 If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.
banina si ti mren u gbu meme wa bana rhu rhia banina to nkon u kma hi
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.
to wa ahe yi ba yo sron meme wa a bizani ndi wu shulu nituki irji na klu shan u du ba yo ndi irji mba na nitu wa a mla igbu zi bawa ye
17 By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his only born son,
a he ni nyme krigbangban u Ibrahim niwa ba yo ni tsra a ban Ishaku ton ana vrenma riri wa a ba ton wawu wandi ana kpa alkawaliba
18 to whom it was said, “Your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac,”
ana nitu ibrahim wandi ba tre nituma ndi ahi nitu ishaku mba nu nde iilipu me
19 concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.
ibrahim a ban ya ndi irji to nkon u nzu Ishaku lu rhini kwu ahe to sran tre ana rhi ni ba mba a kma kpa u ye ni kpama
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban nitu kpi wa ba he ni shishi mba ishaku a yo lulu ni Yakubu mba isuwa
21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban mba yakubu niwa a ta kwuu a yo lulu nkan nkan ni mrli Yusufu Yakuba a gbrebre nda kri ka kpa nren nitu kpala zren ma
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.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban u Yusuf niwa son kle na a ti weiweire a tre nitu lurhu mrli Isaraila rhini masar nda yo tre zibwa nitu kwukwu kpama
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.
a he nitu nyme kri gbangban mba musa niwa ba grjiu ba tima ba riuzi u wha tra nitu ba to ndi a vren wa a biya bana ti sisiri iban wa kikle uchu a yoo na
24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,
a he ni nyme kri gbangban wa Musa niwa a gbron ti ndi a kama du ba yondi vren wa firauna
25 choosing rather to share ill treatment with God’s people than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,
a chu duba tiw ya baba ndi bi irji zan wa a ni son si ri kpi ndindi ni latre u nton fii me
26 considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
a mlaya ndi ishan wu hu kristi a ti nkle zan kpi biwo masar nawuu nitu a sia yo shishima ni handu wa ani kpaa
27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
a he nitu nyme kri gbangban mba Musa a don masar ana klu sisiri nfuu uchua na nituwa a vu sron na wandi a si to wa bana too ni shishi na
28 By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban mba akri nitu hugran mba vra iyi ni du wa ani wuu ngrji bi mumlan kana sa wo ni mrli bi mumla bi israila na
29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban mba ba zren zu nimi kpantre ma u reeds na nitu kuklu meme niwa bi masarba bata son zren hu toki imma mrhenba hi
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban mba gonkangbu Jericho a kulhe hu gon zrenmba kagoon u vi tamgban
31 By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban mba Rahab wa ana ntrn ana kwu baba biwa ba ka wotre nitu a kpa pime biwa ba tonba ye ni yabi ni du ba ye ble ya gbengblen gbua
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—
mila lha ngye nha? nton na tsra nimu na du mi lha nitu jiduna, baraka, shamshuna, yaftaha, dawuda, samuila, baba anabawaba
33 who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
ana nitu nyme kri gbangban mba ba rhibiko uchu ni kuu tindu gaatre ndindi nda kpa ba alkawali na kaanyu ba chen
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.
hbi gbengblen ilu nawo ni nyu njingban nda kpa si kpa rhini ba lilo nda kpa kikle gben gblen ni bubu kuu nda ri bi taku waba rhini gran ra
35 Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
imba ba kma kpa bimba wa bana kwu nitu ba tashimebari ba ti ba ya nda kamba ni kpa chuchwo nitu du ba la tashime wa abi
36 Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.
bari ba kpaba tsra ni nkon nza ni ya grhi mba kpa tsi ni gbugban ngame mba sraka ni lo ni kotro
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—
ba taaba ni tita ba hanba ti ha ba wuuba ni njingban ba zren si kagon ni nta tma mba nta tawo bana ni ko ku son zuba ni fuungyungyu nda vuba tiiya chiche vnuu bibie baba bisen u greek ba tsro nha ndi ba ta ba ni tita ba han ba ti ha ba yo ba ni tsra ba wuuba ni njigban
38 of whom the world was not worthy—wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
gbungblu ana bi tsra ni bawu na ba sia zren ni kagon bubu ni klan meme miji baba nglu mba ni nfron tita mba nimi juju meme
39 These all, having been commended for their faith, did not receive the promise,
niwa me wawumba irji a kpanyme ni ba ama nitu nyme kri gbangbanba bana kpa alkawali na
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
irji a mla kpe nkan wa a bi zan nituwa nitu ndi hama nita bana kpaba ndi duba kri tsratsra na
