Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is the assurance of [things] hoped for, the proving of things not seen.
Ulyeteho ni lioli yalinayo umntu lwagolela ahantu ahamo hudandamazu. Ahantu hasanga haoneshe awe uyinga lioli.
2 For therein the elders had witness borne to them.
Nantele awababu wetu waheteshe kwa lweteho lwao.
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 lweteho timenye aje munsi wahawombwelwe hundajizwa zya Ngolobhe, aje hala hahawoneha sagahahagombwilwe afume huvintu vivioneha. (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.
Ihali kwa lweteho lwa Habili ahafumizizye Ungolobhe isadaka inyinza hushile u Kaini. Husababu eyo ahasombwelwe aje alinuugolosu. Ungolobhe ahasombele. Huje ahaletile izawadi, U Habili ayanga hata nkafyiye.
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:
U Henoko ahali nulweteho ahengwilwe humwanya sagaahalolile ufye. “Sagaahawoneshe, kwa vile ilinenwa juu yake kuwa alimpendeza Ungolobhe ahamwenjile” humwanya.
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.
Bila lweteho sagauwajie hugwezye Ungolobhe, yawala hwa Ngolobhe ahnaziwa awe nulweteho aje Ungolobhe. Akhala naje ahuwapela izawadi wala wawahumwanzo.
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.
Ihali hulweteho aje uNuhu, ahasundilwe nu Ngolobhe humambo gasaga gahaoneshe, ishishi ya Ngolobhe ihagombile. Mbongoso yahukombole ikhaya yakwe. Ahawombile esho ahalonjile munsi, ahawa mlithi wa lioli eyo ihezele ashilile ulweteho.
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.
Ihali lweteho aje u Abrahimu, alipoitwa alitii na kwenda mahali ambapo alipaswa kupokea kama lwahakwiziwe aheteshe ahawalile ahaposhe ulithi ahasongoe bila amanye aje awala hwii.
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:
Ihali lweteho ahiishi hunsi aje jenu. Ahakheye hu mahema peka nu Isaka nu Yakobo, walithi awamwao wa ndagano yiyile.
10 for he looked for the city which hath the foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
Huje ahasowenye ahwenje umji wapime na wazenje yu Ngolobhe yuyo.
11 By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive seed when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised:
Ihali lweteho aje Ibrahimu, nu Sala yuyo wahaposheye ingovu zya amyemye ulwanda lakini wahali wagogolo hani wahombile Ungolowe aje golosu. Ahawasowezezye umwana wishilume.
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.
Huje afume hwamuntu oyo weka yahakaribiye afye wahapapwa awana wasagawazye. Wahali wichi nazi inzota zya humwanya na msanga wa hu bahari.
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.
Ewe wonti wahafyiye nu lwetiko sagawahaposhea ulusuwelo. Ila wahalolile wahakalibisizye hwahutali waheteshe aje wahali wajenu aje washila shila munsi yao wewo.
14 For they that say such things make it manifest that they are seeking after a country of their own.
Wala wawayanganga amambo nazi engo awashe wahuanza insi yao wewo.
15 And if indeed they had been mindful of that [country] from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return.
Lioli nkawasewenga insi yawahafumile indi walininafasi ya wele, wangelikuwa na nafasi ya kurejea.
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.
Eshi shileho wanyonywa insi yilishinza ya humwanya. Eshi Ungolobhe sangaalola isoni akwiziwe Ngolobhi wao yuyo agombile umji khaajili yao.
17 By faith Abraham, being tried, offered up Isaac: yea, he that had gladly received the promises was offering up his only begotten [son];
Ihali ilweteho u Abrahamu ahapata ingelo, ahafumya u Isaka. Umwene ahapashela ulusuwelo husheshelo, ahafumizye umwana wakwe weka,
18 [even he] to whom it was said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called:
yuyuyo ahayangwile, “Afume hwa Isaka ishikholoshakwe azakwiziwe.”
19 accounting that God [is] able to raise up, even from the dead; from whence he did also in a parable receive him back.
U Ablaimu ahamenye aje Ungolobhe ahali ni ngovu wa huzyosye u Isaka afume hufyiye, ahayanjile hukabila ya shitenda wili ahaposheye.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.
Ihali lweteho aje u Isaka ahasaile uYakobo nu Esau ahusu amambo gagahuenza.
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.
Ihali lweteho aje uYakobo lwahali lwahali karibu afye ahasaile awana wa Yusufu wekaweka. U Yakobo ahaputile ahategemee humwanya yi ndesa yakwe.
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.
Ihali lweteho aje u Yusufu uwakati wakwe wa malishe lwahakalibia ahayenje aje afume hwawana wa Israeli huMisri ahawalajizya ahweje peka amafupa gakwe,
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.
Ihali lweteho aje uMusa iwahapapwilwe wahafisile amezi gatatu na awazazi wakwe wahanolile aje mwana usanga ya hali mwinza, sagawaahongope indajizwo izwa mwene.
24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;
Ihali lweteho aje uMusa lwahali muntu ugosi ahakhanile akwiziwe mwana wa nendi wa Farao.
25 choosing rather to be evil entreated with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
Pamande ahasaluye ahale na malawa peka na wantu wa Ngolobhe saga ahasungwenzye ianasa imbiwi izya papepe.
26 accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he looked unto the recompense of reward.
Ahasewele isoni ya hufuante uKristi aje uutajili ugosi kuliko imali ya Mmisri ahakazile amaso ahunye izawadi husiku zizihwenza.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
Ihali lweteho aje uMusa ahahepile huMisri. Sagaahogope ilioyo lya mwene, ahuenye gasanga gawoneha.
28 By faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
Ihali lweteho aje ahaikhente ipasaka na atonyelezwe idada, aje umiwi yananganya awawapapwe awahwande awashilume apotwe huwa khante, awaIsraeli.
29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were swallowed up.
Ihali lweteho aje wahashilile pahati yi isumbi ya shamu aje mahali pumu. Awamisri lwawahajezya ashile wahamililwe.
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been compassed about for seven days.
Ihali lwetiho aje uluwumba wa Yeriko wahagwiye pasi, wahazwongolile isiku saba.
31 By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with them that were disobedient, having received the spies with peace.
Ihali lweteho aje u Rahabu ula umalaya sanga ahangamie peka na wala wasanga wahali wagolosu, ahawaopesheye wawahezele ahwenyelezye ahawa wehsele pinza,
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:
Injanje zwoni hani? Amasala sanga gakwela ayanje u Gidioni, u Barak, u Samsoni, u Yeftha, u Daudi, u Samweli na awakuwa,
33 who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
aje ashilile ulweteho wahazimenile umwene wahawombile ihaki na wahaposheye ulusuwelo, wahazinjile amalomu gihanu,
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.
wahazimile ingovu zwonti zi moto wahaponjele uwonji wipanga wahapona afume hu mpungo, wahali wadandamazu iwho wahezele awalogo awajenu wahashembeye.
35 Women received their dead by a resurrection: and others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
Awashe wahaposhe awafyewao hwidala la ufufulwe. Awamo wahalawile, saga waheteshe aleshwe shinza aje wawaje uzyoswo amwinza hani.
36 and others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
Awamo wahalawile, wahasoshele, wahashetwilwe, nantele wahapinywilwe mwijela.
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
Wahakhomilwa amawe. Wahawolilwe. Mentu mentu. Wahabudilwe nu panga. Wahajendanga namakwembe gingole na makwembe gi mbuzi ewo wahazanga, wahawalanga shawavyaleye wahawombwelwanga amawiwi
38 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts and mountains and caves, and the holes of the earth.
(ewo munsi sagabhahazwanga awe nao), wahaziongolaga ziongolanga mwihombe, mwigamba, magwenya, mmagondi igamusni.
39 And these all, having had witness borne to them through their faith, received not the promise,
Lelo awantu wonti ewo Ungolobhe ahawenteshe wahali nulweteho, sagawahaposheye indangano.
40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
Ungolobhe ahalongeye hutupele ahantu ahiza, aje bilaante sangawawajie.
