Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is being confident of what we hope for, convinced about things we do not see.
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 people of old were attested.
nitu kima batre ndindi nitu nyme u ba baci bi sen
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)
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 better sacrifice than Cain, through which he was attested as righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and though he died he still speaks through it.
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, Hanoch 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.
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 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.
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, 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.
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 a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he was going.
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 sojourned in a land of promise, as a foreigner, living 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 looked for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder 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 barren Sarah herself received power to conceive when she was past age, and gave birth, since she considered 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 acknowledged that they were foreigners and temporary residents 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 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.
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; and he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only 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 even he to whom it was said, "In Isaac will your descendants be called;"
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 bowed over 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.

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 abuse suffered for the 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.

30 By faith, the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been encircled for seven days.

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 And what more should 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. And others were tortured, not accepting the payment for release, 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 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

38 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.

39 These all, having had testimony given to them through 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.
