Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is the assurance of [things] hoped for, the proving of things not seen.
Vinu njimiru ndo kuwera na unakaka kwa vitwatira vyatulitumbira, kuvimana kwa unakaka vitwatira vyatuviwona ndiri.
2 For therein the elders had witness borne to them.
Kwa njimiru, wazewi wa makashu wajimiritwi na Mlungu.
3 By faith we understand that the worlds have been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen hath not been made out of things which do appear. (aiōn g165)
Kwa njimiru, twenga tuvimana handa pasipanu panyawitwi kwa shisoweru sha Mlungu, su vintu vyaviwoneka vilawiti muvintu vyaviwoneka ndiri. (aiōn g165)
4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had witness borne to him that he was righteous, God bearing witness in respect of his gifts: and through it he being dead yet speaketh.
Kwa njimiru Abeli kamlaviliriti Mlungu tambiku yaiweriti iherepa kuliku ilii ya Kaini. Kwa njimiru yakuwi, kajimiritwi na kuwera yakamfiriziya Mlungu toziya Mlungu mweni kazijimiriti tambiku zakuwi. Kwa njimiru yakuwi tembera kahowiti, matendu gakuwi gankali gawera na mafundu kwa twenga.
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God translated him: for before his translation he hath had witness borne to him that he had been well-pleasing unto God:
Kwa njimiru, Henoki kanyasulitwi na Mlungu, nakahowa. Kawonekaniti ndiri kayi toziya Mlungu kamnyasuliti. Pamberi pa kunyasulwa kwakuwi, Malembu Mananagala galonga kuwera yomberi kamfiliziyiti Mlungu.
6 And without faith it is impossible to be well-pleasing [unto him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that seek after him.
Pota njimiru hapeni iwezekani kumfiriziya Mlungu. Toziya kila muntu yakamgendera Mlungu, mpaka kajimiri kuwera Mlungu kapalaa na kuwera kawapanana lifupu walii yawamsakula nentu.
7 By faith Noah, being warned [of God] concerning things not seen as yet, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
Kwa njimiru Nuhu kaberiziwitwi na Mlungu toziya ya vitwatira vya kulongolu vyaviwonekiti ndiri. Kamjimiriti Mlungu, kanyawa safina, mlaamu kalopoziyitwi yomberi pamuhera na kaya yakuwi. Kulawirana na aga, kwa njimiru yakuwi wantu wa pasipanu watozitwi kuwera na vidoda na Nuhu kamfiriziyiti Mlungu kwa njira ya njimiru.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out unto a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
Kwa njimiru Aburahamu kamupikaniritii Mlungu pakashemitwi kagendi muisi Mlungu mekampanani iweri yakuwi. Tembera kavimana ndiri pakaweriti kankugenda, Aburahamu kawukiti.
9 By faith he became a sojourner in the land of promise, as in a [land] not his own, dwelling in tents, with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
Kwa njimiru kalikaliti gambira muhenga muisi Mlungu yakamlagiliti kumpanana. Kalikaliti aku mumapamanda, Isaka na Yakobu wankiti vintu viraa vilii Mlungu vyakamlagiliti Aburahamu, walikaliti mumapamanda vulaa gambira yomberi.
10 for he looked for the city which hath the foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
Toziya Aburahamu kaweriti kankuhepelera lushi lwaluwera na lyanjiru ligangamala, lushi lweni Mlungu mweni ndo yakaluholiriti na kulinyawa.
11 By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive seed when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised:
Kwa njimiru Aburahamu kankiti makakala ga kulera tembera kaweriti mzewi na Sara mdala gwakuwi kaweriti mpendi. Toziya Aburahamu kajimiriti kuwera Mlungu yakamlagiliti kaweriti mjimirika.
12 wherefore also there sprang of one, and him as good as dead, [so many] as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the sand, which is by the sea shore, innumerable.
Su kulawa kwa muntu yumu ayu mweni yakapititi kala umuli wa kulera, kulawiriti wantu wavuwa gambira ntondu zya kumpindi na gambira mhanga gwa pambeku pa bahali.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
Wantu woseri awa wahowiti pawawera na njimiru. Wahowiti pamberi pa kwanka vitwatira Mlungu vyakavilagiliti, kumbiti kwa kutali waviwoniti na wanemeleriti na kulonga kuwera womberi waweriti wahenga na watugira pasipanu.
14 For they that say such things make it manifest that they are seeking after a country of their own.
Wantu yawatakula vitwatira handa avi, walanguziya paweru kuwera wankuyisakula isi yawu weni.
15 And if indeed they had been mindful of that [country] from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return.
Handa mewayiholeri isi yawalawiti makashu, mewapati lupenyu lya kuwuya aku.
16 But now they desire a better [country], that is, a heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
Kumbiti vinu wafira isi yaiwera iherepa nentu, isi ya kumpindi. Su Mlungu kawona ndiri soni kushemwa Mlungu gwawu, toziya yomberi kawatandiriti kala lushi.
17 By faith Abraham, being tried, offered up Isaac: yea, he that had gladly received the promises was offering up his only begotten [son];
Kwa njimiru Aburahamu kamlaviyiti mwana gwakuwi Isaka kaweri tambiku shipindi Mlungu pakamjeriti. Aburahamu mweni ndo yakaweriti kanka shirii shakalagiliti Mlungu, kumbiti pamuhera na hangu, kajimiriti kumlaviya mwana gwakuwi gwa gweka gwa lagilu,
18 [even he] to whom it was said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called:
ndomweni yakagambiritwi na Mlungu kupitira Isaka hagupati wiwuka wavuwa.
19 accounting that God [is] able to raise up, even from the dead; from whence he did also in a parable receive him back.
Aburahamu kavimaniti handa Mlungu kaweza kuzyukisiya yawahowiti na kwa ntambu yimonga nakaka Aburahamu kampatiti kayi mwana gwakuwi kulawa kwa yawahowiti.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.
Kwa njimiru Isaka kawatekeleriti Yakobu na Esawu matekeleru gagiza shakapanu.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, [leaning] upon the top of his staff.
Kwa njimiru Yakobu pakaweriti sambira kahowa, kawapetera mashi kila yumu gwa wana wa Yosefu, na kamguwiriti Mlungu pakalugolokelera luhonga lyakuwi.
22 By faith Joseph, when his end was nigh, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
Kwa njimiru Yosefu pakaweriti pakwegera kuhowa, katakuliti kulawa kwa Waisraeli muisi ya Misri, na viraa kawalekera malagaliru ntambu ya kugatenda mafupa gakuwi.
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw he was a goodly child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.
Kwa njimiru Musa kafifitwi na walera wakuwi kwa shipindi sha myezi mitatu pakayiwukiti. Toziya wamwoniti kuwera mwana kaherepa, womberi wavitiriti ndiri visoweru vya mfalumi.
24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;
Kwa njimiru Musa pakakuliti, kalemiti kushemwa mwana gwa binti gwa Farawu.
25 choosing rather to be evil entreated with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
Kawoniti mbaka kutabika pamuhera na wantu wa Mlungu kuliku kunemelera woya ya vidoda kwa katepu hera.
26 accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he looked unto the recompense of reward.
Kavimaniti kuwera kutabika toziya ya Kristu Mlopoziya kwana mota nkulu kuliku ulunda woseri wa isi ya Misri toziya kaweriti kankulolerela lifupu lya shakapanu.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
Kwa njimiru Musa kalawiti isi ya Misri pota na kutira maya ga mfalumi, na kawuyiti ndiri kumbeli, toziya kendereyiti kumlolerela Mlungu ulii yakawoneka ndiri.
28 By faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
Kwa njimiru kayitenditi Pasaka, kalagaliriti mwazi gumyatirwi pampindi pa milyangu, su ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa kulaga nakawalaga wiwuka wa kwanja wa Israeli.
29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were swallowed up.
Kwa njimiru wantu wa Israeli walokiti bahali nsheri handa iweriti isi iyuma, kumbiti Wamisri pawajeriti kutenda hangu wahowiti kwa kumiruwa mumashi.
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been compassed about for seven days.
Kwa njimiru liboma lwa lushi lwa Yeriku viguwiti wantu wa Israeli pawavizyengikiti kala kwa mashaka saba.
31 By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with them that were disobedient, having received the spies with peace.
Kwa njimiru Rahabu yakaweriti mndiyandiya kahowiti ndiri pamuhera na walii yawamjimiriti ndiri Mlungu, toziya kawashemeriti kwa ponga walolalola wa bada.
32 And what shall I more say? for the time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah; of David and Samuel and the prophets:
Su ntakuli shishi kayi? Nahera shipindi kwaneni kuwatakulira ashina Gidioni na Baraki na Samsoni na Yefta na Dawudi na Samweli na wambuyi wa Mlungu.
33 who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
Kwa njimiru woseri awa wazikankiti falumi. Watenditi vitwatira vyavimfiriziyiti Mlungu, wanka galii gakalagiliti Mlungu. Wadiwa milomu ya simba,
34 quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, waxed mighty in war, turned to flight armies of aliens.
wadoziya makakala ga myotu, washapiriti kulagwa kwa upanga, waweriti legulegu kumbiti wapatiti makakala. Waweriti wagangamala mungondu, wakankiti mashonta ga shihenga.
35 Women received their dead by a resurrection: and others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
Wadala wamu wawauziliriti walongu wawu yawahowiti pawawera wakomu. Wamu wawu walema kuvugulirwa, watabisiyitwi mpaka wahowa su wapati kuzyukisiwa na kwingira mumakaliru gaherepa nentu.
36 and others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
Wamonga watenderitwi lidufiya na kusyatangwa ntomondu, na wamonga watawitwi minyololu na kutatilwa mushibetubetu.
37 they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tempted, they were slain with the sword: they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, evil entreated
Wagumitwi mabuwi, wapiligitwi kwa misumenu vipandi viwili. Wagendigenditi kwa kuzyengeta pawavala mikuli ya wakondolu na mikuli ya wambuzi, waweriti wantu wahushu yawatabisiyitwi na kuzulumiwa.
38 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts and mountains and caves, and the holes of the earth.
Wantu wa pasipanu wafiriti ndiri kuwera na wantu awa. Wayeriyeriti kushiwala na mumigongu, walikaliti mumpanga na mumarindi.
39 And these all, having had witness borne to them through their faith, received not the promise,
Woseri awa wawonekaniti kuwera wakanka toziya ya njimiru yawu. Pamuhera na hangu wankiti ndiri galii Mlungu gakalagiliti,
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
toziya Mlungu kaweriti na mpangu yaguherepa nentu toziya ya twenga, su womberi mewausegeleri ukamilika pawawera na twenga.
