< Hebrews 6 >
1 Therefore, let us leave behind the elementary teaching about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith in God,
Ya bụ ka anyị na-aga nʼihu nʼihe mmụta zuru ezu, ka anyị gharakwa ịnọgide nʼihe mmụta mbụ ahụ nke anyị nwere banyere Kraịst. Anyị agaghị alaghachi azụ ịtọ ntọala nchegharị ọzọ site nʼọrụ ndị nwụrụ anwụ nʼokwukwe nʼebe Chineke nọ,
2 and of instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. (aiōnios )
na-akụzi banyere ime baptizim na ibikwasị aka nʼisi na onyinye nke Mmụọ Nsọ, na mbilite nʼọnwụ na ikpe ebighị ebi. (aiōnios )
3 And this we will do, if God permits.
Anyị ga-eme nke a ma Chineke kwe.
4 For it is impossible to renew to repentance those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit,
Ma ọ dịghị mfe ịkpọghachi ndị dara ada ọzọ, bụ ndị natarala ihe ahụ na mbụ, ndị detụkwara onyinye amara dị iche iche nke si nʼeluigwe bịa ire, ndị ketakwara oke Mmụọ Nsọ,
5 who have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the coming age, (aiōn )
ndị detụkwara ịdị mma nke okwu Chineke ahụ ire na ike nke ụwa na-abịa, (aiōn )
6 and yet have fallen away, since, to their own harm, they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and exposing him to public shame.
ma mesịa dahie nʼonwe ha, ọ bụ ihe siri ike ịkpọghachite ha ruo nchegharị. Ha na akpọgidekwa Ọkpara Chineke nʼobe ọzọ, na emenyekwa ya ihere nʼihu ọha mmadụ.
7 For land that has drunk the rain that often falls upon it, and produces a crop useful to those for whom it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God.
Nʼihi na ala ahụ nke na-amị mmiri na-ezokwasị nʼelu ya mgbe niile, na-amịpụta mkpụrụ bara ụba nye ndị e ji maka ha kọọ ya, na-enweta ngọzị nʼaka Chineke.
8 But land that bears thorns and thistles is worthless and on the verge of being cursed; its end is to be burned.
Ma ọ bụrụ na o puo naanị ogwu na ahịhịa, ọ baghị uru ọbụla. Kama, ọ ga-abụ ihe a bụrụ ọnụ, nke ọgwụgwụ ya ga-abụ ịkpọ ya ọkụ.
9 Even though we speak in this way, beloved, we are confident of better things in your case, things that pertain to salvation.
Ma ọ bụ ezie na anyị na-ekwu otu a, ezi ndị enyi m, anyị nwere ntụkwasị obi maka ihe dị ezi mma banyere unu, bụ ihe ndị ha na nzọpụta so bịa.
10 For God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the labor of love that you have shown toward his name by serving the saints, as you still do.
Chineke abụghị onye na-ekpe ikpe nʼezighị ezi. Ọ gaghị echefu ọrụ niile unu rụrụ ya. Ọ gaghị echefu ịhụnanya niile unu gosiri nʼihi ya site nʼịgara ndị nsọ ozi, dịka unu na-aga nʼihu na-emekwa.
11 We want each one of you to show the same earnestness to have the full assurance of hope to the very end,
Anyị chọrọ ka onye ọbụla nʼime unu nọgidesie ike nʼotu ịnụ ọkụ nʼobi ahụ ruo ọgwụgwụ ihe niile, ka unu nwee olileanya inwezu ihe niile unu na-atụ anya ya mgbe oge ruru.
12 so that you will not be sluggish, but imitators of those who inherit the promises through faith and patience.
Anyị achọghị ka unu bụrụ ndị umengwụ, kama ka unu bụrụ ndị na-eṅomi ndụ ahụ jiri okwukwe na ntachiobi nweta ihe ahụ e kwere na nkwa.
13 When God made his promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater to swear by, he swore by himself,
Mgbe Chineke kwere Ebraham nkwa, o ji onwe ya ṅụọ iyi, nʼihi na ọ dịghị onye ọzọ dị ukwuu karịa ya,
14 saying, “I will surely bless yoʋ and multiply yoʋ.”
na-asị, “Nʼezie aga m agọzi gị, nyekwa gị ọtụtụ ụmụ ụmụ.”
15 And so Abraham, having patiently endured, obtained the promise.
Ebraham nwere ndidi, natakwa ihe e kwere ya na nkwa.
16 People swear by someone greater than themselves, and in all their disputes an oath is final for confirmation.
Ụmụ mmadụ na-eji ndị ka ha ukwuu ṅụọ iyi, iyi aṅụrụ nʼụzọ dị otu a na-eme ka ihe e kwuru guzosie ike ma wezugakwa ịrụ ụka niile nʼetiti mmadụ.
17 So when God wanted to show the unchangeable nature of his purpose even more clearly to the heirs of the promise, he guaranteed it with an oath,
Ya mere, mgbe Chineke chọrọ igosi ndị ahụ ga-eketa nkwa ahụ, ụdịdị izuzu ya, o jiri ịṅụ iyi mee ka o doo ha anya na izuzu ya adịghị agbanwe agbanwe.
18 so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us.
Ka ọ ga-abụ site nʼihe abụọ na-enweghị mgbanwe, nke na-agaghị ekwe omume izi Chineke dịka onye ụgha, anyị bụ ndị gbara ọsọ ndụ ga-enweta agbamume siri ike iji jide olileanya e dobeere anyị.
19 We have this hope as a sure and steadfast anchor for the soul. It enters into the inner sanctuary behind the veil,
Anyị nwere olileanya a dị ka arịlịka nke mkpụrụobi nke guzosiri ike ma bụrụkwa nke e chekwara. Ọ na-abanye nʼime ime ebe nchụaja ahụ nʼazụ akwa mgbochi
20 where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, because he has become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek. (aiōn )
ebe Jisọs onye buru anyị ụzọ, abanyela nʼihi anyị; ọ ghọlara anyị onyeisi nchụaja ruo mgbe ebighị ebi dị ka usoro Melkizedek si dị. (aiōn )
