Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is being confident of what we hope for, convinced about things we do not see.
Yuemnae tie teh, ngaihawi e hnonaw hah kamcengcalah panuenae, hmu hoeh rae hnonaw ao katang telah hmucainae doeh.
2 For by this, the people of old were attested.
Ayan e mintoenaw ni hete yuemnae lahoi doeh oupnae a coe awh.
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)
Het talaivan heh Cathut e lawk lahoi sak e lah ao teh, atu hmu awh e hnonaw teh kaawm tangcoung e hnonaw dawk hoi sak e nahoeh tie teh yuemnae lahoi maimouh ni panue awh. (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.
Abel ni Kain hlak kahawihloe e thuengnae Cathut koevah yuemnae lahoi a sak. Hatdawkvah, Cathut ni ahni teh tamikalan lah a khoe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnie poehno hah Cathut ni a dâw pouh. Hatdawkvah, Ahni teh yo a due toung ei teh hote yuemnae lahoi sahnin ditouh kamthang a dei lahun rah.
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.
Yuemnae lahoi Enok teh dout laipalah a kâthung. Cathut ni a kâthungsak dawkvah ahni teh bout kamphawng hoeh toe. Ahni teh a kâthung hoehnahlan vah hete kapanuekkhaikung a tawn teh Cathut lung ka youk e tami lah ao.
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.
Yuemnae tawn hoehpawiteh apinihai Cathut lungyouk e lah awm thai hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut koe ka tho e taminaw ni Cathut ao katang tie hoi ama katawngnaw hah tawkphu kapoekung lah ao tie a yuem han.
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.
Yuemnae lahoi Noah ni a hmu boihoeh rae naw dawk kâhruetcuetnae lawk a thai navah, yuemnae lahoi a imthungkhunaw rungngang nahanlah long a sak. Hote yuemnae lahoi talaivan taminaw a yonnae a kamnue sak teh, yuemnae lahoi lannae hah râw lah a coe.
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.
Cathut ni Abraham teh râw lah a coe hane ram dawk cei hanlah a kaw navah, ahni ni nâ lah maw ka cei han tie panuek laipalah yuemnae lahoi lawk a ngâi teh a cei.
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.
Ahni teh yuemnae lahoi lawkkam e ram dawkvah, ramlouk e tami, imyin patetlah kho a sak teh, lawkkamnae buet touh rei ka coe awh e Isak hoi Jakop ti hoi cungtalah rimnaw dawk rei ao awh.
10 For he looked for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut ni a sak e a yungyoe kacakpounge khopui hah a ngaihawi awh.
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.
Hot patetvanlah a cakaroe e Sarah nihai a matawng hnukkhu vah, yuemnae lahoi camo vawn thainae a tawn. Bangkongtetpawiteh, lawkkamnae kapoekung teh lawkkam a cak tie a yuem dawk doeh.
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.
Hottelah hoi, kalvan e âsinaw hoi palang e sadinaw patetlah kapap e taminaw hah tami kadout patetlah kaawm e tami buet touh koehoi khe lah ao awh.
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.
Hote taminaw pueng ni lawkkamnaw coe awh hoeh ei, ahlanae koehoi a radoung awh teh a hmu awh, talai van a hring awh navah, imyin hoi kahlawng ka cet e tami lah ka o awh tie a kâpanue awh teh, yuemnae lahoi a due awh.
14 For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
Hottelah kâpanuek e naw niteh amamae khoram katang hah panki laihoi a tawng awh tie a kamnue sak awh.
15 If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.
Ahnimouh ni hmaloe, a ceitakhai e ram teh pouk awh katang pawiteh, hote ram dawk bout ban nahane kâ a tawn awh.
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.
Hatei, atangcalah ahnimouh ni kalvanlae ram kahawihnawn e doeh, a doun awh. Hatdawkvah, Cathut ni ahnimae Cathut telah kaw e hah kayak hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Bawipa ni ahnimouh hane khopui teh yo a rakueng pouh toe.
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;
Abraham teh tanouk lah ao navah yuemnae lahoi Isak hah thuengnae lah a sak. Lawkkamnaw ka coe e tami ni a tawn dueng capa thueng hanlah a rakueng.
18 even he to whom it was said, "In Isaac will your descendants be called;"
Cathut ni Abraham koe, Isak dawk hoi khe lah kaawm e taminaw teh nange catoun telah kaw han, atipouh.
19 concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.
Cathut niteh kadoutnaw patenghai a thaw sak thai tie Abraham ni a pouk dawkvah hottelah thuengnae hah a sak. Hatdawkvah, a capa teh duenae koehoi bout a hmu.
20 By faith, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.
Isak ni yuemnae lahoi ka tho hane naw hoi kâkuen lah, Jakop hoi Esaw yawhawi a poe.
21 By faith, Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and bowed over the top of his staff.
Jakop ni yuemnae lahoi a due tawmlei vah Joseph e a capa roi yawhawinae a poe teh, a sonron hmo van Cathut a bawk.
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.
Joseph ni a due tawmlei vah yuemnae lahoi Isarel miphunnaw san hlout nahan lawk a dei teh a hru hoi kâkuen e lawk a thui.
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.
Mosi e manu hoi na pa ni Mosi a khe navah a meilam ahawi e a hmu dawkvah yuemnae lahoi Siangpahrang kâpoe e taket laipalah thapa yung thum touh a hro roi.
24 By faith, Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,
Mosi ni a lungha toteh yuemnae a tawn dawkvah Faro canu e capa telah kaw hane a kangek.
25 choosing rather to share ill treatment with God's people, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time;
Yonnae hoi kâkuen e nawmnae dawngdengca pang hlak teh, Cathut e taminaw hoi roedeng rektapnae cungtalah khang hane heh yuemnae lahoi a kârawi.
26 considering the abuse suffered for the Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
Ahni ni kahawi e, hmalah hmu hane a ngaihawi dawkvah, Khrih hanlah pathoenae, yonpennae a khang e hah Izip ram e hnopainaw pueng hlak hai aphu kaawm poung e lah a pouk.
27 By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
Yuemnae lahoi siangpahrang lungkhueknae hah taket laipalah, Izip ram a ceitakhai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hmu thai hoeh e Cathut hah kahmawt e patetlah a kâcai dawk doeh.
28 By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
Ca caminnaw kathetkung ni Isarelnaw e camin a thei hoeh nahanlah yuemnae lahoi ceitakhai pawi a sak teh takhang dawk thi a hluk sak.
29 By faith, they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.
Isarelnaw ni yuemnae lahoi tuipui paling hah talai kaphui dawk ka cet e patetlah a raka awh. Hot patetlah ka raka e Izipnaw teh tui dawk koung a bo awh.
30 By faith, the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been encircled for seven days.
Yuemnae lahoi Jeriko khopui hai hnin sari totouh a lawngven hnukkhu, kho kalupnae tapang teh rup a tip.
31 By faith, Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.
Kâyawt e napui Rahab ni Isarel tami katuetnaw a hro dawkvah kayuemhoehnaw hoi cungtalah dout laipalah a hlout.
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;
Hahoi, bang e akong maw bout dei han rah. Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, Devit, Samuel hoi profetnaw e kongnaw dei pawiteh atueng ni na khout mahoeh.
33 who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
Hotnaw ni yuemnae lahoi uknaeramnaw hai a la awh, lannae a sak awh, lawkkam a coe awh, Sendek pahni hah a kâcakuep sak awh.
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.
Hmai bahu hah a roum sak, sarusarai dawk hoi hloutnae, thayounnae koehoi thaonae, taran tuknae koe tha hoi akawi awh teh ram alouknaw e ransanaw e rimnaw hah raphoenae, hot patetnaw hah a sak awh.
35 Women received their dead by resurrection. And others were tortured, not accepting the payment for release, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
Napuinaw nihai duenae koehoi bout ka thaw e a canaw bout a hmu awh. Hahoi, tangawn teh hoe kahawi e boutthawnae hah a hmu thai nahanlah hloutnae rawi laipalah rektapnae ka patawpoung lah a khang awh.
36 Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.
Hahoi, tangawn nihai hmuhmanae hoi hemnae a khang dueng tho laipalah thongim dawkvah kateknae totouh a khang awh.
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
Ahnimouh teh, a dêi awh, a a awh, tahloi hoi a thei awh, a rektap awh, kamcu hoeh lah a dudam awh teh, hmae pho, tu pho khohna hoi yuengyoe kampuen laihoi kho a sak awh.
38 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
Het talaivan teh ahnimouh o nahan kamcu hoeh. Ahnimouh teh thingyeiyawn, montam, lungngoum, hoi talai kâko naw dawk a kâva awh teh ao awh.
39 These all, having had testimony given to them through their faith, did not receive the promise,
Ahnimanaw pueng ni yuemnae lahoi a kampangkhai awh eiteh, lawkkam e teh coe awh hoeh.
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
Cathut ni maimouh han lah kahawihloe e hno hah sut na rakueng pouh dawkvah, ahnimanaw teh maimouh laipalah kuepsak lah awm awh mahoeh.
