< Hebrews 11 >

1 Now faith is [the] substance of things hoped for, [the] proof of matters not being seen,
ཝིཤྭཱས ཨཱཤཾསིཏཱནཱཾ ནིཤྩཡཿ, ཨདྲྀཤྱཱནཱཾ ཝིཥཡཱཎཱཾ དརྴནཾ བྷཝཏི།
2 for by this, the elders were well-attested.
ཏེན ཝིཤྭཱསེན པྲཱཉྩོ ལོཀཱཿ པྲཱམཱཎྱཾ པྲཱཔྟཝནྟཿ།
3 By faith we understand the ages to have been prepared by a saying of God, in regard to the things seen having not come out of things appearing. (aiōn g165)
ཨཔརམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ ཝཱཀྱེན ཛགནྟྱསྲྀཛྱནྟ, དྲྀཥྚཝསྟཱུནི ཙ པྲཏྱཀྵཝསྟུབྷྱོ ནོདཔདྱནྟཻཏད྄ ཝཡཾ ཝིཤྭཱསེན བུདྷྱཱམཧེ། (aiōn g165)
4 By faith Abel offered a better sacrifice to God than Cain, through which he was testified to be righteous, God testifying of his gifts, and through it, he being dead, yet speaks.
ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཧཱབིལ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརམུདྡིཤྱ ཀཱབིལཿ ཤྲེཥྛཾ བལིདཱནཾ ཀྲྀཏཝཱན྄ ཏསྨཱཙྩེཤྭརེཎ ཏསྱ དཱནཱནྱདྷི པྲམཱཎེ དཏྟེ ས དྷཱརྨྨིཀ ཨིཏྱསྱ པྲམཱཎཾ ལབྡྷཝཱན྄ ཏེན ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཙ ས མྲྀཏཿ སན྄ ཨདྱཱཔི བྷཱཥཏེ།
5 By faith Enoch was translated—not to see death, and was not found, because God translated him; for before his translation he had been testified to—that he had pleased God well,
ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཧནོཀ྄ ཡཐཱ མྲྀཏྱུཾ ན པཤྱེཏ྄ ཏཐཱ ལོཀཱནྟརཾ ནཱིཏཿ, ཏསྱོདྡེཤཤྩ ཀེནཱཔི ན པྲཱཔི ཡཏ ཨཱིཤྭརསྟཾ ལོཀཱནྟརཾ ནཱིཏཝཱན྄, ཏཏྤྲམཱཎམིདཾ ཏསྱ ལོཀཱནྟརཱིཀརཎཱཏ྄ པཱུཪྻྭཾ ས ཨཱིཤྭརཱཡ རོཙིཏཝཱན྄ ཨིཏི པྲམཱཎཾ པྲཱཔྟཝཱན྄།
6 and apart from faith it is impossible to please [Him], for it is required of him who is coming to God to believe that He exists and [that] He becomes a rewarder to those seeking Him.
ཀིནྟུ ཝིཤྭཱསཾ ཝིནཱ ཀོ྅པཱིཤྭརཱཡ རོཙིཏུཾ ན ཤཀྣོཏི ཡཏ ཨཱིཤྭརོ྅སྟི སྭཱནྭེཥིལོཀེབྷྱཿ པུརསྐཱརཾ དདཱཏི ཙེཏིཀཐཱཡཱམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརཤརཎཱགཏཻ ཪྻིཤྭསིཏཝྱཾ།
7 By faith Noah, having been divinely warned concerning the things not yet seen, having feared, prepared an ark to the salvation of his house, through which he condemned the world, and he became heir of the righteousness according to faith.
ཨཔརཾ ཏདཱནཱིཾ ཡཱནྱདྲྀཤྱཱནྱཱསན྄ ཏཱནཱིཤྭརེཎཱདིཥྚཿ སན྄ ནོཧོ ཝིཤྭཱསེན བྷཱིཏྭཱ སྭཔརིཛནཱནཱཾ རཀྵཱརྠཾ པོཏཾ ནིརྨྨིཏཝཱན྄ ཏེན ཙ ཛགཛྫནཱནཱཾ དོཥཱན྄ དརྴིཏཝཱན྄ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ལབྷྱསྱ པུཎྱསྱཱདྷིཀཱརཱི བབྷཱུཝ ཙ།
8 By faith Abraham, being called, obeyed, to go forth into the place that he was about to receive for an inheritance, and he went forth, not knowing to where he goes.
ཝིཤྭཱསེནེབྲཱཧཱིམ྄ ཨཱཧཱུཏཿ སན྄ ཨཱཛྙཱཾ གྲྀཧཱིཏྭཱ ཡསྱ སྠཱནསྱཱདྷིཀཱརསྟེན པྲཱཔྟཝྱསྟཏ྄ སྠཱནཾ པྲསྠིཏཝཱན྄ ཀིནྟུ པྲསྠཱནསམཡེ ཀྐ ཡཱམཱིཏི ནཱཛཱནཱཏ྄།
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of the promise as a strange country, having dwelt in dwelling places with Isaac and Jacob, fellow-heirs of the same promise,
ཝིཤྭཱསེན ས པྲཏིཛྙཱཏེ དེཤེ པརདེཤཝཏ྄ པྲཝསན྄ ཏསྱཱཿ པྲཏིཛྙཱཡཱཿ སམཱནཱཾཤིབྷྱཱམ྄ ཨིསྷཱཀཱ ཡཱཀཱུབཱ ཙ སཧ དཱུཥྱཝཱསྱབྷཝཏ྄།
10 for he was looking for the city having the foundations, whose craftsman and constructor [is] God.
ཡསྨཱཏ྄ ས ཨཱིཤྭརེཎ ནིརྨྨིཏཾ སྠཱཔིཏཉྩ བྷིཏྟིམཱུལཡུཀྟཾ ནགརཾ པྲཏྱཻཀྵཏ།
11 And by faith Sarah, herself barren, received power to conceive seed even after the time of life, seeing she judged Him who promised faithful;
ཨཔརཉྩ ཝིཤྭཱསེན སཱརཱ ཝཡོཏིཀྲཱནྟཱ སནྟྱཔི གརྦྷདྷཱརཎཱཡ ཤཀྟིཾ པྲཱཔྱ པུཏྲཝཏྱབྷཝཏ྄, ཡཏཿ སཱ པྲཏིཛྙཱཀཱརིཎཾ ཝིཤྭཱསྱམ྄ ཨམནྱཏ།
12 for this reason, also, from one—and that of one who had become dead—were begotten as the stars of the sky in multitude, and innumerable as the sand that [is] by the seashore.
ཏཏོ ཧེཏོ རྨྲྀཏཀལྤཱད྄ ཨེཀསྨཱཏ྄ ཛནཱད྄ ཨཱཀཱཤཱིཡནཀྵཏྲཱཎཱིཝ གཎནཱཏཱིཏཱཿ སམུདྲཏཱིརསྠསིཀཏཱ ཨིཝ ཙཱསཾཁྱཱ ལོཀཱ ཨུཏྤེདིརེ།
13 All these died in faith, having not received the promises, but having seen them from afar, and having been persuaded, and having greeted [them], and having confessed that they are strangers and sojourners on the earth,
ཨེཏེ སཪྻྭེ པྲཏིཛྙཱཡཱཿ ཕལཱནྱཔྲཱཔྱ ཀེཝལཾ དཱུརཱཏ྄ ཏཱནི ནིརཱིཀྵྱ ཝནྡིཏྭཱ ཙ, པྲྀཐིཝྱཱཾ ཝཡཾ ཝིདེཤིནཿ པྲཝཱསིནཤྩཱསྨཧ ཨིཏི སྭཱིཀྲྀཏྱ ཝིཤྭཱསེན པྲཱཎཱན྄ ཏཏྱཛུཿ།
14 for those saying such things make apparent that they seek a country;
ཡེ ཏུ ཛནཱ ཨིཏྠཾ ཀཐཡནྟི ཏཻཿ པཻཏྲྀཀདེཤོ ྅སྨཱབྷིརནྭིཥྱཏ ཨིཏི པྲཀཱཤྱཏེ།
15 and if, indeed, they had been mindful of that from which they came forth, they might have had an opportunity to return,
ཏེ ཡསྨཱད྄ དེཤཱཏ྄ ནིརྒཏཱསྟཾ ཡདྱསྨརིཥྱན྄ ཏརྷི པརཱཝརྟྟནཱཡ སམཡམ྄ ཨལཔྶྱནྟ།
16 but now they long for better, that is, heavenly, for this reason God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for He prepared a city for them.
ཀིནྟུ ཏེ སཪྻྭོཏྐྲྀཥྚམ྄ ཨརྠཏཿ སྭརྒཱིཡཾ དེཤམ྄ ཨཱཀཱངྐྵནྟི ཏསྨཱད྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྟཱནདྷི ན ལཛྫམཱནསྟེཥཱམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭར ཨིཏི ནཱམ གྲྀཧཱིཏཝཱན྄ ཡཏཿ ས ཏེཥཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ནགརམེཀཾ སཾསྠཱཔིཏཝཱན྄།
17 By faith Abraham has offered up Isaac, being tried, even the [one] having received the promises offered up his only begotten,
ཨཔརམ྄ ཨིབྲཱཧཱིམཿ པརཱིཀྵཱཡཱཾ ཛཱཏཱཡཱཾ ས ཝིཤྭཱསེནེསྷཱཀམ྄ ཨུཏྶསརྫ,
18 of whom it was said, “In Isaac will your Seed be called,”
ཝསྟུཏ ཨིསྷཱཀི ཏཝ ཝཾཤོ ཝིཁྱཱསྱཏ ཨིཏི ཝཱག྄ ཡམདྷི ཀཐིཏཱ ཏམ྄ ཨདྭིཏཱིཡཾ པུཏྲཾ པྲཏིཛྙཱཔྲཱཔྟཿ ས ཨུཏྶསརྫ།
19 reckoning that God is even able to raise up out of the dead, from where also in a figurative sense he received [him].
ཡཏ ཨཱིཤྭརོ མྲྀཏཱནཔྱུཏྠཱཔཡིཏུཾ ཤཀྣོཏཱིཏི ས མེནེ ཏསྨཱཏ྄ ས ཨུཔམཱརཱུཔཾ ཏཾ ལེབྷེ།
20 By faith, concerning coming things, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau.
ཨཔརམ྄ ཨིསྷཱཀ྄ ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཡཱཀཱུབ྄ ཨེཥཱཝེ ཙ བྷཱཝིཝིཥཡཱནདྷྱཱཤིཥཾ དདཽ།
21 By faith Jacob, dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and worshiped on the top of his staff.
ཨཔརཾ ཡཱཀཱུབ྄ མརཎཀཱལེ ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཡཱུཥཕཿ པུཏྲཡོརེཀཻཀསྨཻ ཛནཱཡཱཤིཥཾ དདཽ ཡཥྚྱཱ ཨགྲབྷཱགེ སམཱལམྦྱ པྲཎནཱམ ཙ།
22 By faith Joseph, dying, made mention concerning the outgoing of the sons of Israel, and gave command concerning his bones.
ཨཔརཾ ཡཱུཥཕ྄ ཙརམཀཱལེ ཝིཤྭཱསེནེསྲཱཡེལྭཾཤཱིཡཱནཱཾ མིསརདེཤཱད྄ བཧིརྒམནསྱ ཝཱཙཾ ཛགཱད ནིཛཱསྠཱིནི ཙཱདྷི སམཱདིདེཤ།
23 By faith Moses, having been born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw the child beautiful, and were not afraid of the decree of the king.
ནཝཛཱཏོ མཱུསཱཤྩ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཏྲཱན྄ མཱསཱན྄ སྭཔིཏྲྀབྷྱཱམ྄ ཨགོཔྱཏ ཡཏསྟཽ སྭཤིཤུཾ པརམསུནྡརཾ དྲྀཥྚཝནྟཽ རཱཛཱཛྙཱཉྩ ན ཤངྐིཏཝནྟཽ།
24 By faith Moses, having become great, refused to be called a son of the daughter of Pharaoh,
ཨཔརཾ ཝཡཿཔྲཱཔྟོ མཱུསཱ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཕིརཽཎོ དཽཧིཏྲ ཨིཏི ནཱམ ནཱངྒཱིཙཀཱར།
25 having chosen rather to be afflicted with the people of God, than to have sin’s pleasure for a season,
ཡཏཿ ས ཀྵཎིཀཱཏ྄ པཱཔཛསུཁབྷོགཱད྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ པྲཛཱབྷིཿ སཱརྡྡྷཾ དུཿཁབྷོགཾ ཝཝྲེ།
26 having reckoned the reproach of the Christ greater wealth than the treasures in Egypt, for he looked to the repayment of reward.
ཏཐཱ མིསརདེཤཱིཡནིདྷིབྷྱཿ ཁྲཱིཥྚནིམིཏྟཱཾ ནིནྡཱཾ མཧཏཱིཾ སམྤཏྟིཾ མེནེ ཡཏོ ཧེཏོཿ ས པུརསྐཱརདཱནམ྄ ཨཔཻཀྵཏ།
27 By faith he left Egypt behind, having not been afraid of the wrath of the king, for as seeing the Invisible One—he endured.
ཨཔརཾ ས ཝིཤྭཱསེན རཱཛྙཿ ཀྲོདྷཱཏ྄ ན བྷཱིཏྭཱ མིསརདེཤཾ པརིཏཏྱཱཛ, ཡཏསྟེནཱདྲྀཤྱཾ ཝཱིཀྵམཱཎེནེཝ དྷཻཪྻྱམ྄ ཨཱལམྦི།
28 By faith he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, so that He who is destroying the firstborn might not touch them.
ཨཔརཾ པྲཐམཛཱཏཱནཱཾ ཧནྟཱ ཡཏ྄ སྭཱིཡལོཀཱན྄ ན སྤྲྀཤེཏ྄ ཏདརྠཾ ས ཝིཤྭཱསེན ནིསྟཱརཔཪྻྭཱིཡབལིཙྪེདནཾ རུདྷིརསེཙནཉྩཱནུཥྛིཏཱཝཱན྄།
29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea as through dry land, which having made an attempt [to cross], the Egyptians were swallowed up.
ཨཔརཾ ཏེ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ སྠལེནེཝ སཱུཕྶཱགརེཎ ཛགྨུཿ ཀིནྟུ མིསྲཱིཡལོཀཱསྟཏ྄ ཀརྟྟུམ྄ ཨུཔཀྲམྱ ཏོཡེཥུ མམཛྫུཿ།
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell, having been surrounded for seven days.
ཨཔརཉྩ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཏཻཿ སཔྟཱཧཾ ཡཱཝད྄ ཡིརཱིཧོཿ པྲཱཙཱིརསྱ པྲདཀྵིཎེ ཀྲྀཏེ ཏཏ྄ ནིཔཔཱཏ།
31 By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who disbelieved, having received the spies with peace.
ཝིཤྭཱསཱད྄ རཱཧབྣཱམིཀཱ ཝེཤྱཱཔི པྲཱིཏྱཱ ཙཱརཱན྄ ཨནུགྲྀཧྱཱཝིཤྭཱསིབྷིཿ སཱརྡྡྷཾ ན ཝིནནཱཤ།
32 And what yet will I say? For the time will fail me recounting about Gideon, also Barak, and Samson, and Jephthah, also David, and Samuel, and the prophets,
ཨདྷིཀཾ ཀིཾ ཀཐཡིཥྱཱམི? གིདིཡོནོ བཱརཀཿ ཤིམྴོནོ ཡིཔྟཧོ དཱཡཱུད྄ ཤིམཱུཡེལོ བྷཝིཥྱདྭཱདིནཤྩཻཏེཥཱཾ ཝྲྀཏྟཱནྟཀཐནཱཡ མམ སམཡཱབྷཱཝོ བྷཝིཥྱཏི།
33 who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped mouths of lions,
ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཏེ རཱཛྱཱནི ཝཤཱིཀྲྀཏཝནྟོ དྷརྨྨཀརྨྨཱཎི སཱདྷིཏཝནྟཿ པྲཏིཛྙཱནཱཾ ཕལཾ ལབྡྷཝནྟཿ སིཾཧཱནཱཾ མུཁཱནི རུདྡྷཝནྟོ
34 quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouth of the sword, were made powerful out of weakness, became strong in battle, caused armies of the foreigners to give way;
ཝཧྣེརྡཱཧཾ ནིཪྻྭཱཔིཏཝནྟཿ ཁངྒདྷཱརཱད྄ རཀྵཱཾ པྲཱཔྟཝནྟོ དཽརྦྦལྱེ སབལཱིཀྲྀཏཱ ཡུདྡྷེ པརཱཀྲམིཎོ ཛཱཏཱཿ པརེཥཱཾ སཻནྱཱནི དཝཡིཏཝནྟཤྩ།
35 women received their dead by a resurrection, and others were tortured, not accepting the redemption, that they might receive a better resurrection,
ཡོཥིཏཿ པུནརུཏྠཱནེན མྲྀཏཱན྄ ཨཱཏྨཛཱན྄ ལེབྷིརེ, ཨཔརེ ཙ ཤྲེཥྛོཏྠཱནསྱ པྲཱཔྟེརཱཤཡཱ རཀྵཱམ྄ ཨགྲྀཧཱིཏྭཱ ཏཱཌནེན མྲྀཏཝནྟཿ།
36 and others received trial of mockings and scourgings, and yet of bonds and imprisonment;
ཨཔརེ ཏིརསྐཱརཻཿ ཀཤཱབྷི རྦནྡྷནཻཿ ཀཱརཡཱ ཙ པརཱིཀྵིཏཱཿ།
37 they were stoned, they were sawn apart, they were tried; they died in the killing of the sword; they went around in sheepskins, in goatskins—being destitute, afflicted, injuriously treated,
བཧཝཤྩ པྲསྟརཱགྷཱཏཻ རྷཏཱཿ ཀརཔཏྲཻ ཪྻཱ ཝིདཱིརྞཱ ཡནྟྲཻ ཪྻཱ ཀླིཥྚཱཿ ཁངྒདྷཱརཻ ཪྻཱ ཝྱཱཔཱདིཏཱཿ། ཏེ མེཥཱཎཱཾ ཚཱགཱནཱཾ ཝཱ ཙརྨྨཱཎི པརིདྷཱཡ དཱིནཱཿ པཱིཌིཏཱ དུཿཁཱརྟྟཱཤྩཱབྷྲཱམྱན྄།
38 of whom the world was not worthy; wandering in deserts, and mountains, and caves, and the holes of the earth;
སཾསཱརོ ཡེཥཱམ྄ ཨཡོགྱསྟེ ནིརྫནསྠཱནེཥུ པཪྻྭཏེཥུ གཧྭརེཥུ པྲྀཐིཝྱཱཤྪིདྲེཥུ ཙ པཪྻྱཊན྄།
39 and all these, having been testified to through faith, did not receive the promise,
ཨེཏཻཿ སཪྻྭཻ ཪྻིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ པྲམཱཎཾ པྲཱཔི ཀིནྟུ པྲཏིཛྙཱཡཱཿ ཕལཾ ན པྲཱཔི།
40 God, having provided something better for us, that apart from us they might not be made perfect.
ཡཏསྟེ ཡཐཱསྨཱན྄ ཝིནཱ སིདྡྷཱ ན བྷཝེཡུསྟཐཻཝེཤྭརེཎཱསྨཱཀཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ཤྲེཥྛཏརཾ ཀིམཔི ནིརྡིདིཤེ།
