Hebrews 11
1 But faith is, of things hoped for, a confidence, of facts, a conviction, when they are not seen;
Jumeinak tak ti hin käh mi hmuh thei ja mi äpeia khana mlung üpnaka kyaki ni.
2 For, thereby, well-attested were the ancients.
Ahlana khyange naw ami jumeinaka phäh ni Pamhnam naw a jah ksing ta.
3 By faith, we understand the ages to have been fitted together, by declaration of God, —to the end that, not out of things appearing, should that which is seen, have come into existence. (aiōn g165)
Am mi hmuh theinak üngka mi hmuh thei vaia khawmdek ja khankhaw sepbeiki cun Pamhnama ngthu ni tia mi ksingnak cun jumeinak üngkhyüh ni. (aiōn g165)
4 By faith, a fuller sacrifice, did Abel, offer unto God, than Cain, —through which, he received witness that he was righteous, there being a witnessing upon his gifts, by God; and, through it, though he died, he yet is speaking.
Kaihnaha ngkengnaka kthaka daw bawkia ngkengnak Abelah naw Pamhnam üng a pet hin jumeinak kyaki. A jumeinaka phäh ngsungpyunkia Pamhnam naw a pyen, isetiakyaküng, Pamhnam amät naw a peta ngkengnak cun a doei pet ni. Abelah thi päng kyaw lüpi ania mawng cun a jumeinak naw pyen hamki ni.
5 By faith, Enoch was translated, so as not to see death, and was not found, because that, God, had translated him; for, before the translation, he had received witness that he had become well-pleasing unto God; —
Jumeinaka phäh va Enawk am thi. Ani cun Pamhnama veia kai be lü u naw pi am hmu u, isetiakyaküng, ani cun Pamhnam naw a lak be ni. Cangcim naw a pyen ta Pamhnam jesakia kya lü Enawk cun Pamhnam naw a lak be ni.
6 But, apart from faith, it is impossible to be well-pleasing; for he that approacheth unto God—must needs have faith, that he is, and that, to them who seek him out, a rewarder he becometh.
Jumeinak am taki au naw pi Pamhnam am jesak, Pamhnam veki tia jumnak ta lü Pamhnama vei law lü suileiki cun ngkhyengnak yah khai.
7 By faith, Noah, having received intimation concerning the things not yet seen, filled with reverence, prepared an ark to the saving of his house—through which he condemned the world, and, of the righteousness by way of faith, became heir.
Malama law khai am a hmuh thei Pamhnama mcäinak cun Nawe naw Jumeinak am ngjaki. Pamhnama pyen kcang na lü mlawngnu a saka phäh a imkyawng lätnak yahkie. Khawmdek cun mkümnak kham lü Nawe naw jumeinak üngkhyüh lawkia ngsungpyunnak yahki.
8 By faith, being called, Abraham obeyed—to come forth into a place he was destined to receive for an inheritance; and he came forth, not well knowing whither he was coming.
Pamhnam naw khyütam lü a pet vai pe cua Abraham Pamhnam naw a khü üng a kcangnak cun jumeinaka phäha kyaki. Hawa a cehnak vai am ksing xa lü ani naw a pe cun hawih hütki ni.
9 By faith, he sojourned in the land of promise, as a foreign land, in tents, dwelling, along with Isaac and Jacob, the joint-heirs of the same promise;
Ani cun jumeinaka phäh üng Pamhnam naw khyü a tam peta pe cua khina kba ngtuinglengki. Ani cun hjam üng ve lü Pamhnama khyütam yahki Isak ja Jakop pi acukba ve hngaki xawi.
10 For he was awaiting the city having foundations, whose architect and builder is, God.
Abraham cun naw angläta ngkhängkia Pamhnam naw a sawngsak peta mlüh cun k'äiheiki ni.
11 By faith, even Sarah herself, received power for founding a seed, even beyond the season of life’s prime, —seeing that, faithful, she reckoned, him that had promised;
Sarah cun am cana khawh ti lü Abraham pi xü ngvai tawng kyaw sepi jumeinak naw ani cun pa tia thawn law khawhki. Akhyütam cun a mänak vaia Pamhnam cun ümnaki.
12 Wherefore, even from one, were born, and, as to these things, one who had become dead, —like the stars of the heaven, for multitude, and as the sand that is by the lip of the sea, that cannot be numbered.
Abraham cun mtisa lama thi kyaw lüpi ani üngkhyüh mpanglai pei veki am mi kheh khawha mdihe ja khankhaw veki aisiea kba a tuca khawhah ve lawki ni.
13 In faith, all these died—not bearing away the promises, but, from afar, beholding and saluting them, and confessing that, strangers and sojourners, were they upon the land.
Ahina khyange cun jumeinak üng thikie. Pamhnama khyütam cun amimi naw am yahei u lüpi amimi cun khawmdeka cencawn u lü khinnghleia kba dokhamnak yahei khaie ti cun ajan üngkhyüh hmukie ni.
14 For, they who such things as these are saying, make it clear that, of a paternal home they are in quest;
Amimi naw ami pe vai suileikie ti cun ahi bange naw angsinga mdanki ni.
15 And, if indeed of that they had been mindful, from which they had come out, they might, in that case, have had an opportunity, to return;
Ami hawih hüta pe cun am cungai ti u, acun hin ami cungaiha kyaküng nglat be khawhkie ni.
16 But, now, after a better one, are they reaching, that is, a heavenly; wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be invoked as, their God, —for he hath prepared for them, a city.
Akdaw bawka pe khankhaw pe cun äpeikie ni. Amimia Pamhnam tia khü vaia Pamhnam cun am ngkeei, isetiakyaküng, Pamhnam naw amimia phäha mlüh cun pyangthamki ni.
17 By faith, Abraham, when tested, offered up Isaac, and, the only-begotten, would he have offered up, who the promises had accepted, —
Pamhnam naw Abraham a cam üng Abraham naw jumeinaka phäh a ca Isak cun ngkengnaka kba Pamhnam üng peki ni. Abrahama vei Pamhnam naw a peta khyütam mata kya kyaw lüpi a ca mat däk cun ngkengnaka kba pe khaia ngtüneiki ni.
18 Even him of whom it had been said—In Isaac, shall there be called to thee, a seed:
Pamhnam naw ania vei, “Isak üngkhyüh ka ning peta khyütam na tucae cun na yah khai,” a ti.
19 Accounting that, even from among the dead, God, was able, to raise [him], —whence, even in similitude, he bare him away.
Pyen vai ania kyaküng, Abraham cun naw thihnak üngkhyüh Isak cun Pamhnam naw mtho be khawhki tia ngaiki, acuna kyase Abraham naw Isak cun thihnak üngkhyüh yahei beki ni.
20 By faith, even concerning things to come, did Isaac bless Jacob and Esau.
Jumeinak naw Isak cun malama law khai Jakop ja Etawa phäh dawkyanaka khyütam cun pawhki ni.
21 By faith, Jacob, when about to die, blessed each of the sons of Joseph; and bowed in worship on the top of his staff.
Jumeinaka phäh Jakop naw Josepa ca xawi am a thih ham üng dawkyanak jah peki ni. Lam a cehnak sawngkhe cun üng nghnganei lü Pamhnam cun hjawkhahki ni.
22 By faith, Joseph, when drawing to his end—concerning the exodus of the sons of Israel, called to remembrance, and, concerning his bones, gave commandment.
Jumeinaka phäh Josep naw a thi law hlühnüh üng Isarele Egypt üngkhyüh ami ceh be vai ua mawng pyen lü a yawk cun ihawkba ami pawh vai cun jah mcuhmthehki ni.
23 By faith, Moses, when born—was hid three months by his parents, because, they saw, that, goodly, was, the child, and were not affrighted, at the decree of the king.
Jumeinaka phäh Mosi a hmi käna a nupa xawi naw khya kthum ami cüm ni. Hnasen cun ngtokia ami hmuha phäh käh kyühei lü sangpuxanga pyen cun kpetki xawi ni.
24 By faith, Moses, when grown up—refused to be called the son of a daughter of a Pharaoh,
Jumeinaka phäh Mosi adäm law üng Pharoa ca nghnua capaa ngsuinak cun hawihki ni.
25 Rather choosing—to be jointly suffering ill-treatment with the people of God, than, for a season, to be having, sins enjoyment;
Ani naw asäng mkhye üng jekyaia kthaka Pamhnama khyange am khuikha vai cun tängki ni.
26 Accounting—as greater riches than Egypt’s treasures, the reproach of the Anointed One; for he was looking away unto the recompense.
Ani naw Mesijaha khuikhanak hin Egypta ka khawhthema kthaka dawki ti cun süm lü malama vekia ngkhyengnak cun bük kyetki ni.
27 By faith, he forsook Egypt—not put in fear of the wrath of the king; for, as seeing him who cannot be seen, he persevered.
Jumeinaka phäh Mosi naw Pharoa mlung sonak käh kyühei lü egypt cun cehtaki ni. Am hmuh theia Pamhnam cun hmu lü a nglat law be vai maki ni.
28 By faith, he hath kept the passover and the besmearing of the blood, lest, he that was destroying the first-born, should be touching them.
Jumeinaka phäh Isarelea ca kcüke Thihnaka Ngsä naw käh a jah hnim vaia ksawh naküt üng thi kthüih vai ja kphyawnnak cun tüneiki ni.
29 By faith, they passed through the Red Sea, as over dry land, —which the Egyptians, seizing an attempt to do, were swallowed up.
Jumeinaka phäh Isarele naw Mpanglai Sen cun kawnga ami ceha kba citkie; Egypt khyange cit khaia ami ngtün üng tui üng ngcum päihkie ni.
30 By faith, the walls of Jericho, fell, having been surrounded for seven days.
Jumeinaka phäh Isarele naw Jerikho ngvawng cun mhnüp khyüh ami leng käna pyaki ni.
31 By faith, Rahab the harlot perished not with them who refused to yield, she having welcomed the spies with peace.
Jumeinaka phäh nghnumi kse Rahap naw Isarel msäke a püiea mäiha a jah dokhama phäha Pamhnam am kcangnakie jah hnimnak üngkhyüh lätki ni.
32 And what more can I say? For, time, will fail me while I go on telling—concerning Gideon, Barak, Sampson, Jephthah, David also, and Samuel, and the prophets, —
Ka pyen ham khai aw? Sahmae ja Kihdong, Barak, Samson, Jephatah, Davit, Samuilah jah pyennaka kcün vai am lawk ti ve.
33 Who, through faith—prevailed in contest over kingdoms, wrought righteousness, attained unto promises, shut the mouths of lions,
Jumeinaka phäh amimi naw khyawngpe jah tu u lü jah nängkie. Akcang i ti cun pawh u lü Pamhnama khyütam i ti cun pi yaheikie ni. Hengsih hea mpyawng ami jah mkhüpsak,
34 Quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouths of the sword, were made powerful from weakness, became mighty in battle, overturned, camps of aliens;
mei kdäie pi jah mthih lü kcim am jah hnimnak vai üng pi lätki he ni. Amimi cun ktha ngcek u lüpi kthamah law u lü ngtukahnak üng kthamah u lü khyangkce ami yee cun jah nängkie ni.
35 Women received, by resurrection, their dead; but, others, were put to the rack, not accepting redemption, that, unto a better resurrection, they might attain:
Nghnumie naw jumeinak üngkhyüh thikiea ami mjüphyüie cun akxünga tho law bekie cun jah yahei bekie ni. Akcee ta xünnak akdaw bawk ami yahei vaia mhlätnak cun mah u lü mkhuimkhanak kham lü thikie ni.
36 Others, again, of mockings and scourgings, received trial, nay! further, of bonds and imprisonments:
Avang cun jah yaihyün lü jah kpai, akcee cun jah khun u lü thawng üng ami jah khyum ni.
37 They were stoned, were pierced through, were sawn asunder, by murder, with a sword, died, went about in sheep-skins, in goat-hides, —being in want, suffering tribulation, enduring ill-treatment:
Lung am ami jah khawng tawng, hlah am jah kthawt tawng lü kcim am ami jah hnim ni. Ami cun mpyenksekie, mkhuimkha kham u lü ami jah mdihmsuia kya lü toe ja meea vun cun suisa lü cit hükie ni.
38 Of whom the world, was not worthy—upon deserts, wandering, and mountains, and in caves, —and in the caverns of the earth.
Khawmdek cun amimia phäh am daw ve! Amimi cun mdek khui ja khuikawke ja mcunge ja khawkhyawnga mpyenksea kba citcawn hükie ni.
39 And, these all, though they obtained witness through their faith, yet bare not away, the promise:
Ami jumeinaka phäh ahinea calang cun ami yah ni. Lüpi Pamhnama khyütam cun am yah u,
40 God, for us, something better providing, —that, not apart from us, should they be made, perfect.
isetiakyaküng, Pamhnam naw mimia phäh bünak akdaw bawk a mkhyah pänga phäh ni. Ania nümnak cun mimi ngpüi lü ami kümcei vaia phäh ni.
