Hebrews 6
1 So, we [(inc)] must not keep [discussing] the elementary principles about Christ. Instead, we must proceed [to the teaching that will make us spiritually] mature [MTY]. We must not [be people who always need someone to teach them] the elementary truths [about Christ that are like] [MET] a foundation. [I am referring to the teaching that people who do sinful] things must turn away from their sinful behavior, things that [those who are spiritually] [MET] dead do. [I am referring to the teaching] that people must believe in God.
Nin nani usunu nimon na iwa durso nari nin nburne, kitene kaduran Kiristi, tiba li uban udu tikunag, na tutun utunu litino ndiu katyen nanya katuwa nkul, a uyinnu nin Kutelle,
2 [I am referring to the teaching about what] various [Jewish and Christian] rituals for purifying people [signify. I am referring to the teaching about how elders enable people to receive spiritual gifts by] laying hands [on them] [MTY]. [I am referring to the teaching that God will] ([cause] those who have died to live again/raise people from the dead). And [I am referring to the teaching that God] will judge [some people and punish them] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
na nlon litino ndursuzu kitene nsulsunu ulau, utardu nacara, utitu na nan nkul, in nshara sa ligan. (aiōnios g166)
3 [Instead of continuing to discuss these elementary truths], we [(inc)] (OR, I) will [go on to give people mature teaching], if God allows it.
Arike tutun ba su ulle imone asa Kutelle nyinna.
4 [I will explain why it is important to do that. Some] people have at one time fully understood [the message about Christ] [MET]. They have experienced [a relationship with Jesus Christ] that God [EUP/MTY] gave [to them]. They have received the Holy Spirit the same as [others have].
Bara uso gbas, kiti na lenge na iwa tinani iyinno, ule na awa dumun ufillu Kutelle, ule na iwa kuso nin nfip milau.
5 They have experienced that God’s message is good. And by what they have experienced [now], they know how [God will work] powerfully in the future. If those people reject [the message about Christ], it will not be possible for anyone to persuade them to turn away from their sinful behavior again! (aiōn g165)
inug alle na iwa dumun tigbulan ticine in Kutelle nin likara kuji ncin dak. (aiōn g165)
6 What those [believers who later renounce the message about Christ do is as though] [MET] they themselves are nailing the Son of God to a cross again! They are causing others to publicly despise Christ.
inug alle na iwa diuwe-udinin nijasi ukpiliya nani tutun udin ndiu kutyin, nanere bara na inghe atimine wa kotin gono Kutelle kitene kuca, tutun itanghe aso imon ncing fong.
7 Think about this: It is land on which rain has frequently fallen [PRS] and on which plants grow [PRS] that is useful for the people who prepare the land that God has blessed. [Similarly, it is those believers who have received many good things from God and who do good deeds/things that please God, whom God will bless] [MET].
Bara kutyin na serru uwuru na udi njju kunin, nkoni din nutuzunu ileou isesu uampani inug alle na idi katuwa kunenne, isere nmari kiti Kutelle.
8 But [what will happen to believers who do deeds/things that do not please God will be like what happens to land] on which [only] thorns and thistles grow [MET]. [Such land] is worthless. It has almost become land that God will curse, and eventually he will burn [its vegetation] [MTY].
Bara as kunutuno imart nin ubarje, ku ba so hem, nin ndre nnti nnu, imalline ba dak nin njujuzu.
9 Although I am writing [to you] like this as a [warning], I am certain concerning you whom I love that [you are doing] better than that. Specifically, I am sure that [you are doing] the things that are appropriate [for those whom God] has saved.
Vat nin nani tidin nliru nenge, adondong bite tise likara nimon icine, ulenge na idi immine, imon ille na idi in tucue.
10 Since God always acts justly [LIT], he will not overlook all you have done [for him. He will also not overlook] [MTY] [your showing that you love] him by the way you helped your fellow believers and [by the way you still] help them. [Instead, God will reward you for doing good deeds].
Bara na Kutelle unan salin adalciari ba, na aba shawu nin katuwa mine nin nsu na ina durso bara lissa me, nanya nanere iwa tumuzun annit alau, udak nene idinsu nani.
11 I very much want each of you to diligently continue to fully expect to receive [what God has provided for you], until you finally [receive everything that you have confidently expected to receive].
Nin nani arike ntah nibinayi, nworo kogha nanya mine ba dursu imusu nciu kibinayi udu imalin, nin se ntabas nyinnu.
12 I do not want you to be lazy. [Instead, I want] you to imitate those who, because they patiently continued to trust in [God], are receiving what he promised them.
Na tidinin su ilawa shankalong ba, mbara iso anan nsu nimon ule na anan nse ngadu na likawali, bara iyinnu nin nayi ashau.
13 When God promised to [do things for] Abraham, he said that he would punish himself [if he did not do that], because there was no one of greater importance to ask to punish him [if he did not do it].
Bara kubi na Kutelle wa su Ibrahim ku likawali, a wa sillo nin litime, tunda na awasa a sillo nin mong ulenge na adi udiya ba.
14 He said [to Abraham], “I will certainly bless you [(sg)], and I will certainly increase [the number of] your [descendants] [SYN].”
Ame woronghe “meng lallai mba tifi nmari, mba kuru nkpin ngbardang likurafe?”
15 As a result, after Abraham patiently waited [for God to do what he promised], he received what [God] promised him.
Nanya nlo libau were Ibrahim nwanse ille imon na iwa su nghe likawali, kubi na awa cicah nanya hankuri.
16 [Keep in mind that when people promise something], they ask a more important person to punish them if they do not do what they promise. Furthermore, when people ask God to punish them [if they do not tell the truth], that causes people who are disputing to stop disputing.
Bara anit dinsu isillin ninle na akatin nani nin gbardang, nanya namusu mine, isillin nnere imaline vat.
17 So, when God wanted to demonstrate very clearly (to us/to those people) who would receive what he had promised that he would not change what he had purposed [to do], he solemnly guaranteed that he would declare himself guilty if he did not do what he promised.
Kubi na Kutelle wa yinin adurso nkanang udu kiti na nan ngadu nalikawali, imon nsali nsakisu ngegeme, nadlili me, awa ni uyinnu nin nisillin.
18 He did that to strongly encourage us as a result of our [knowing] that [God has done] two things that cannot change. [Namely, he promised to bless us, and he solemnly declared that he would declare himself guilty if he did not bless us]. We [know] that God, who did those things, cannot lie. We have fled [to him] in order that we might continue confidently to expect to receive what he promised us.
Awa su nani bara imon ibba illenge na idin sakisu ba, nanya nilenge na udinin nijasi Kutelle su kinnu, arike alenge na tina chum udu kiti nyeshinu tiba se likara kibinayi timin uti nayi ulle na ina ceou bara arike.
19 [Our confidently expecting] [SYN] [to receive what he has promised is like] an anchor [MET] that very firmly [DOU] [holds us fast. The one we confidently expect to help us] [SYN] [is Jesus, who] goes into [God’s very presence, just like the Supreme Priests went] behind the curtain into the innermost [part of the tent in the barren area] [MET].
Tidimu nle uciu kibanayi, nafo ukessu nin likara ntabatu nidowo bite, uti kibinayi na uwa piru nanya kiti kuzeni kibulun.
