< Hebrews 4 >
1 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest remains open, let us proceed with fear so that none of you may be found to have fallen short of it.
Yango wana, lokola elaka ya kokota kati na bopemi ya Nzambe ezali nanu, tosala keba ete moko kati na bino akanisa ete azangeli.
2 For we also have received good news just as they did. But the message they heard did not benefit them, since they were not united by faith with those who listened.
Pamba te, biso mpe toyokaki Sango Malamu lokola bango; kasi mateya oyo bayokaki esungaki bango ata na likambo moko te mpo ete bato oyo bayokaki yango bayambaki yango na kondima te.
3 For we who have believed enter that rest. As for the others, God has said, “As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter my rest!’” Now God's works have been finished from the foundation of the world.
Sik’oyo, biso oyo tondimi, tozali kokota kati na bopemi yango kolanda ndenge Nzambe alobaki: « Yango wana, kati na kanda na ngai, nakataki seleka oyo: ‹ Bakotikala kokota te kati na bopemi na ngai! › » Nzambe alobaki bongo, atako misala na Ye emonanaki wuta na tango oyo akelaki mokili.
4 For in one place it speaks about the seventh day as follows: “On the seventh day God rested from all his works.”
Pamba te, na esika moko, elobami boye na tina na mokolo ya sambo: « Boye, na mokolo ya sambo, Nzambe akataki mosala nyonso oyo azalaki kosala. »
5 But again, God says in the passage above: “They will not enter my rest!”
Mpe, kati na eteni oyo esili koleka, alobi: « Bakotikala kokota te kati na bopemi na ngai! »
6 Therefore, since God's rest remains open for some to enter, and those who formerly received good news did not enter because of their disobedience,
Boye, lokola emonani polele ete ezali nanu na bato oyo basengeli kokota kati na bopemi yango, mpe ete bato oyo bazalaki bato ya liboso mpo na koyoka Sango Malamu bakotaki te mpo ete batosaki Nzambe te,
7 he again designates a certain day, calling it “Today,” as he says through David much later, in the passage already quoted, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.”
yango wana Nzambe abongisi lisusu mokolo moko oyo azali kobenga « lelo, » tango alobaki, sima na mikolo, na nzela ya Davidi: « Lelo, soki boyoki mongongo na Ye, boyeisa mitema na bino mabanga te. »
8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.
Pamba te, soki Jozue alonga penza kopesa bango bopemi, Nzambe alingaki lisusu te koloba na tina na mokolo mosusu.
9 So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
Boye, mpo na bato ya Nzambe, etikali na bopemi moko oyo ezali lokola mokolo ya sambo oyo Nzambe apemaki.
10 For anyone who has entered God's rest has rested from his own works, just as God rested from his.
Pamba te moto oyo akoti kati na bopemi ya Nzambe apemi na misala na ye, ndenge kaka Nzambe apemaki na misala na Ye.
11 Therefore let us make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall into the same pattern of disobedience.
Yango wana, tosala makasi mpo na kokota kati na bopemi yango mpo ete tokweya te kati na bozangi botosi lokola bana ya Isalaele.
12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the point of dividing soul from spirit, and joints from marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Pamba te Liloba na Nzambe ezali na bomoi mpe na nguya, ekotaka koleka kutu mopanga oyo ezali na minu na bangambo nyonso mibale, ekomaka kino kokabola elimo mpe molimo, mikuwa mpe mafuta oyo ezalaka kati na mikuwa, mpe esosolaka malamu makanisi mpe mikano ya motema ya moto.
13 No creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.
Kati na bikelamu nyonso, moko te ezali ya kobombama na miso ya Nzambe: nyonso ezali polele, mpe ezali ya kobombama te na miso ya Ye oyo akosambisa biso.
14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.
Yango wana, lokola tozali na Mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, oyo akatisa Likolo, Ye Yesu, Mwana na Nzambe, tosimba makasi kondima oyo totatolaka.
15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are, yet was without sin.
Pamba te tozali na Mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, oyo akoki kosangana na bapasi na biso; amekamaki kutu na makambo nyonso, ndenge biso mpe tozali komekama, kasi asalaki masumu te.
16 Therefore let us draw near to the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
Boye, topusana na elikya nyonso pene ya Kiti ya Bokonzi ya ngolu mpo ete Nzambe ayokela biso mawa mpe tozwa ngolu, oyo ekosunga biso na tango oyo ekoki.
