< Hebrews 3 >
1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation, consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, inyuĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ atheru, o inyuĩ mũgwatanĩire ũhoro wa gwĩtwo kũrĩa kuumĩte na igũrũ, mwĩcũranagiei ũhoro wa Jesũ, o we mũtũmwo na mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene ũrĩa tuumbũraga ũhoro wake.
2 Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.
We aarĩ mwĩhokeku kũrĩ ũrĩa wamwamũrire, o ta ũrĩa Musa aarĩ mwĩhokeku maũndũ-inĩ mothe ma nyũmba ya Ngai.
3 For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house, hath greater honour than the house.
Jesũ nĩonekanĩte aagĩrĩire kũheo gĩtĩĩo kĩnene gũkĩra Musa, o ta ũrĩa mwaki wa nyũmba aagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũtĩĩo gũkĩra nyũmba yo nyene.
4 For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things, is God.
Nĩgũkorwo nyũmba o yothe nĩĩrĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wamĩakire, no Ngai nĩwe mwaki wa indo ciothe.
5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:
Nake Musa, aarĩ mwĩhokeku maũndũ-inĩ mothe ma nyũmba ya Ngai arĩ o ndungata, agakĩrutaga ũira wa maũndũ marĩa makaaheanwo thuutha-inĩ.
6 But Christ as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.
No Kristũ arĩ Mũriũ aarĩ mwĩhokeku na akarũgamĩrĩra nyũmba ya Ngai. Na ithuĩ tũrĩ nyũmba ĩyo yake, tũngĩikara tũrũmĩtie ũmĩrĩru witũ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩrĩa twĩrahagĩra.
7 Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: Today if you shall hear his voice,
Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, o ta ũrĩa Roho Mũtheru oigaga, atĩrĩ: “Ũmũthĩ, mũngĩigua mũgambo wake,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation; in the day of temptation in the desert,
mũtikoomie ngoro cianyu ta hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mwanemeire, andũ makĩĩngeria marĩ kũu werũ-inĩ,
9 Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works,
kũrĩa maithe manyu maangeririe na makĩndoria, na makĩona ciĩko ciakwa, ihinda rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna.
10 Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways,
Nĩkĩo ndaarakarĩire rũciaro rũu, ngĩkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ngoro cia andũ aya itururaga hĩndĩ ciothe, na matirĩ maamenya njĩra ciakwa.’
11 As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩĩhĩta na mwĩhĩtwa ndakarĩte, ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Matirĩ hĩndĩ magaatoonya kĩhurũko-inĩ gĩakwa.’”
12 Take heed, brethren, lest perhaps there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, to depart from the living God.
Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, mwĩmenyererei hatikagĩe o na ũmwe wanyu ũrĩ na ngoro ĩĩhagia na ĩtetĩkagia, ĩrĩa ĩgarũrũkaga, ĩgatigana na Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo.
13 But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called today, that none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
No ũmanagĩrĩriai mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ o mũthenya, o rĩrĩa rĩothe mũthenya ũrĩĩtagwo Ũmũthĩ, nĩgeetha gũtikagĩe o na ũmwe wanyu ũkũũmio ngoro nĩ ũndũ wa kũheenererio nĩ mehia.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ: yet so, if we hold the beginning of his substance firm unto the end.
Tondũ ũcio, tũngĩrũmia wega mwĩhoko ũrĩa twarĩ naguo kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria nginya ithirĩro-rĩ, nĩtũgaatuĩka a kũgwatanĩra hamwe na Kristũ.
15 While it is said, Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in that provocation.
O ta ũrĩa kwĩrĩtwo, atĩrĩ: “Ũmũthĩ, mũngĩigua mũgambo wake, mũtikoomie ngoro cianyu ta hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mwanemeire.”
16 For some who heard did provoke: but not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
Nĩ andũ arĩkũ acio maaiguire na makĩmũkararia? Githĩ ti arĩa othe moimĩte Misiri matongoretio nĩ Musa?
17 And with whom was he offended forty years? Was it not with them that sinned, whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert?
Ningĩ-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩkũ aarakarĩire mĩaka ĩyo mĩrongo ĩna? Githĩ ti arĩa meehirie, na magĩkua, o arĩa ciimba ciao ciagũire kũu werũ-inĩ?
18 And to whom did he swear, that they should not enter into his rest: but to them that were incredulous?
Ningĩ-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩkũ Ngai ehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ gũtirĩ hĩndĩ magaatoonya ũhurũko-inĩ wake, tiga o andũ acio maaregire kũmwathĩkĩra?
19 And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief.
Tũgakĩona atĩrĩ, matiahotire gũtoonya kuo nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga gwĩtĩkia kwao.
