Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is being confident of what we hope for, convinced about things we do not see.
विश्वास आशंसितानां निश्चयः, अदृश्यानां विषयाणां दर्शनं भवति।
2 For by this, the people of old were attested.
तेन विश्वासेन प्राञ्चो लोकाः प्रामाण्यं प्राप्तवन्तः।
3 By faith, we understand that the ages were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible. (aiōn g165)
अपरम् ईश्वरस्य वाक्येन जगन्त्यसृज्यन्त, दृष्टवस्तूनि च प्रत्यक्षवस्तुभ्यो नोदपद्यन्तैतद् वयं विश्वासेन बुध्यामहे। (aiōn g165)
4 By faith, Habeil offered to God a better sacrifice than Qayen, through which he was attested as righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and though he died he still speaks through it.
विश्वासेन हाबिल् ईश्वरमुद्दिश्य काबिलः श्रेष्ठं बलिदानं कृतवान् तस्माच्चेश्वरेण तस्य दानान्यधि प्रमाणे दत्ते स धार्म्मिक इत्यस्य प्रमाणं लब्धवान् तेन विश्वासेन च स मृतः सन् अद्यापि भाषते।
5 By faith, Khenuk was taken away, so that he would not see death, "and he was not found, because God took him away." For before he was taken he was attested as having pleased God.
विश्वासेन हनोक् यथा मृत्युं न पश्येत् तथा लोकान्तरं नीतः, तस्योद्देशश्च केनापि न प्रापि यत ईश्वरस्तं लोकान्तरं नीतवान्, तत्प्रमाणमिदं तस्य लोकान्तरीकरणात् पूर्व्वं स ईश्वराय रोचितवान् इति प्रमाणं प्राप्तवान्।
6 Now 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.
किन्तु विश्वासं विना कोऽपीश्वराय रोचितुं न शक्नोति यत ईश्वरोऽस्ति स्वान्वेषिलोकेभ्यः पुरस्कारं ददाति चेतिकथायाम् ईश्वरशरणागतै र्विश्वसितव्यं।
7 By faith, Nukh, being warned about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared a box-shaped ship for the salvation of his household, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
अपरं तदानीं यान्यदृश्यान्यासन् तानीश्वरेणादिष्टः सन् नोहो विश्वासेन भीत्वा स्वपरिजनानां रक्षार्थं पोतं निर्म्मितवान् तेन च जगज्जनानां दोषान् दर्शितवान् विश्वासात् लभ्यस्य पुण्यस्याधिकारी बभूव च।
8 By faith, Avraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he was going.
विश्वासेनेब्राहीम् आहूतः सन् आज्ञां गृहीत्वा यस्य स्थानस्याधिकारस्तेन प्राप्तव्यस्तत् स्थानं प्रस्थितवान् किन्तु प्रस्थानसमये क्क यामीति नाजानात्।
9 By faith, he sojourned in a land of promise, as a foreigner, living in tents with Iskhaq and Yaquv, the heirs with him of the same promise.
विश्वासेन स प्रतिज्ञाते देशे परदेशवत् प्रवसन् तस्याः प्रतिज्ञायाः समानांशिभ्याम् इस्हाका याकूबा च सह दूष्यवास्यभवत्।
10 For he looked for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
यस्मात् स ईश्वरेण निर्म्मितं स्थापितञ्च भित्तिमूलयुक्तं नगरं प्रत्यैक्षत।
11 By faith, even barren Sarah herself received power to conceive when she was past age, and gave birth, since she considered him faithful who had promised.
अपरञ्च विश्वासेन सारा वयोतिक्रान्ता सन्त्यपि गर्भधारणाय शक्तिं प्राप्य पुत्रवत्यभवत्, यतः सा प्रतिज्ञाकारिणं विश्वास्यम् अमन्यत।
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.
ततो हेतो र्मृतकल्पाद् एकस्मात् जनाद् आकाशीयनक्षत्राणीव गणनातीताः समुद्रतीरस्थसिकता इव चासंख्या लोका उत्पेदिरे।
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were foreigners and temporary residents on the earth.
एते सर्व्वे प्रतिज्ञायाः फलान्यप्राप्य केवलं दूरात् तानि निरीक्ष्य वन्दित्वा च, पृथिव्यां वयं विदेशिनः प्रवासिनश्चास्मह इति स्वीकृत्य विश्वासेन प्राणान् तत्यजुः।
14 For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
ये तु जना इत्थं कथयन्ति तैः पैतृकदेशो ऽस्माभिरन्विष्यत इति प्रकाश्यते।
15 If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.
ते यस्माद् देशात् निर्गतास्तं यद्यस्मरिष्यन् तर्हि परावर्त्तनाय समयम् अलप्स्यन्त।
16 Instead, they were longing for 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.
किन्तु ते सर्व्वोत्कृष्टम् अर्थतः स्वर्गीयं देशम् आकाङ्क्षन्ति तस्माद् ईश्वरस्तानधि न लज्जमानस्तेषाम् ईश्वर इति नाम गृहीतवान् यतः स तेषां कृते नगरमेकं संस्थापितवान्।
17 By faith, Avraham, being tested, offered up Iskhaq; and he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only son;
अपरम् इब्राहीमः परीक्षायां जातायां स विश्वासेनेस्हाकम् उत्ससर्ज,
18 even he to whom it was said, "In Iskhaq will your descendants be called;"
वस्तुत इस्हाकि तव वंशो विख्यास्यत इति वाग् यमधि कथिता तम् अद्वितीयं पुत्रं प्रतिज्ञाप्राप्तः स उत्ससर्ज।
19 concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.
यत ईश्वरो मृतानप्युत्थापयितुं शक्नोतीति स मेने तस्मात् स उपमारूपं तं लेभे।
20 By faith, Iskhaq blessed Yaquv and Isuw, even concerning things to come.
अपरम् इस्हाक् विश्वासेन याकूब् एषावे च भाविविषयानध्याशिषं ददौ।
21 By faith, Yaquv, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Yauseph, and bowed over the top of his staff.
अपरं याकूब् मरणकाले विश्वासेन यूषफः पुत्रयोरेकैकस्मै जनायाशिषं ददौ यष्ट्या अग्रभागे समालम्ब्य प्रणनाम च।
22 By faith, Yauseph, when his end was near, made mention of the departure of the people of Israyel; and gave instructions concerning his bones.
अपरं यूषफ् चरमकाले विश्वासेनेस्रायेल्वंशीयानां मिसरदेशाद् बहिर्गमनस्य वाचं जगाद निजास्थीनि चाधि समादिदेश।
23 By faith, Mushe, 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.
नवजातो मूसाश्च विश्वासात् त्राीन् मासान् स्वपितृभ्याम् अगोप्यत यतस्तौ स्वशिशुं परमसुन्दरं दृष्टवन्तौ राजाज्ञाञ्च न शङ्कितवन्तौ।
24 By faith, Mushe, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,
अपरं वयःप्राप्तो मूसा विश्वासात् फिरौणो दौहित्र इति नाम नाङ्गीचकार।
25 choosing rather to share ill treatment with God's people, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time;
यतः स क्षणिकात् पापजसुखभोगाद् ईश्वरस्य प्रजाभिः सार्द्धं दुःखभोगं वव्रे।
26 considering the abuse suffered for the Meshikha greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
तथा मिसरदेशीयनिधिभ्यः ख्रीष्टनिमित्तां निन्दां महतीं सम्पत्तिं मेने यतो हेतोः स पुरस्कारदानम् अपैक्षत।
27 By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
अपरं स विश्वासेन राज्ञः क्रोधात् न भीत्वा मिसरदेशं परितत्याज, यतस्तेनादृश्यं वीक्षमाणेनेव धैर्य्यम् आलम्बि।
28 By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
अपरं प्रथमजातानां हन्ता यत् स्वीयलोकान् न स्पृशेत् तदर्थं स विश्वासेन निस्तारपर्व्वीयबलिच्छेदनं रुधिरसेचनञ्चानुष्ठितावान्।
29 By faith, they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.
अपरं ते विश्वासात् स्थलेनेव सूफ्सागरेण जग्मुः किन्तु मिस्रीयलोकास्तत् कर्त्तुम् उपक्रम्य तोयेषु ममज्जुः।
30 By faith, the walls of Irikhu fell down, after they had been encircled for seven days.
अपरञ्च विश्वासात् तैः सप्ताहं यावद् यिरीहोः प्राचीरस्य प्रदक्षिणे कृते तत् निपपात।
31 By faith, Rakhav the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.
विश्वासाद् राहब्नामिका वेश्यापि प्रीत्या चारान् अनुगृह्याविश्वासिभिः सार्द्धं न विननाश।
32 What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gedeun, Baraq, Shemshun, Naphtakh, Dawid, Shemuyel, and the prophets;
अधिकं किं कथयिष्यामि? गिदियोनो बारकः शिम्शोनो यिप्तहो दायूद् शिमूयेलो भविष्यद्वादिनश्चैतेषां वृत्तान्तकथनाय मम समयाभावो भविष्यति।
33 who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
विश्वासात् ते राज्यानि वशीकृतवन्तो धर्म्मकर्म्माणि साधितवन्तः प्रतिज्ञानां फलं लब्धवन्तः सिंहानां मुखानि रुद्धवन्तो
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.
वह्नेर्दाहं निर्व्वापितवन्तः खङ्गधाराद् रक्षां प्राप्तवन्तो दौर्ब्बल्ये सबलीकृता युद्धे पराक्रमिणो जाताः परेषां सैन्यानि दवयितवन्तश्च।
35 Women received their dead by resurrection. And others were tortured, not accepting the payment for release, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
योषितः पुनरुत्थानेन मृतान् आत्मजान् लेभिरेे, अपरे च श्रेष्ठोत्थानस्य प्राप्तेराशया रक्षाम् अगृहीत्वा ताडनेन मृतवन्तः।
36 Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.
अपरे तिरस्कारैः कशाभि र्बन्धनैः कारया च परीक्षिताः।
37 They were stoned, they were sawed apart, they were put to the test, they were killed with the sword. They went around in sheepskins and in goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, mistreated
बहवश्च प्रस्तराघातै र्हताः करपत्रै र्वा विदीर्णा यन्त्रै र्वा क्लिष्टाः खङ्गधारै र्वा व्यापादिताः। ते मेषाणां छागानां वा चर्म्माणि परिधाय दीनाः पीडिता दुःखार्त्ताश्चाभ्राम्यन्।
38 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
संसारो येषाम् अयोग्यस्ते निर्जनस्थानेषु पर्व्वतेषु गह्वरेषु पृथिव्याश्छिद्रेषु च पर्य्यटन्।
39 These all, having had testimony given to them through their faith, did not receive the promise,
एतैः सर्व्वै र्विश्वासात् प्रमाणं प्रापि किन्तु प्रतिज्ञायाः फलं न प्रापि।
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
यतस्ते यथास्मान् विना सिद्धा न भवेयुस्तथैवेश्वरेणास्माकं कृते श्रेष्ठतरं किमपि निर्दिदिशे।
