On the contrary, after you die, you will be sent] {[God] will send you} down into the place where [sinful people] will be punished {he will punish sinful people} [forever. God destroyed the ancient city of] Sodom [because the people who lived in that city were extremely wicked].

[Some people are like the soil that had the roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They hear God’s message, but they desire to be rich, [so they] worry [only] about [MTY, PRS] material things.

So, if you [are wanting to use] one of your hands or feet to sin, [stop using that hand or foot! Even if you have to] cut it off [to avoid sinning, do it] [MET]! It is good [that you not sin and] go where you will live [with God eternally, even though while you are still here on earth] you are maimed or lame and do not have a hand or a foot.

[The way for people] to live eternally is for them to know that you are the only true God, and to know that [I], Jesus, am the Messiah, the one you have sent. (aiōnios )
Zao o haveloñe nainai’eo, t’ie ho fohi’ iereo ry Andrianañahare tokañe to, naho Iesoà Norizañe nahitri’oy. (aiōnios )
You will not allow my spirit to remain in the place where the dead are. You will not [even] let my body decay, [because] I am devoted to you and always obey [you]. (Hadēs )
amy te tsy hado’o an-tsikeokeok’ ao ty fiaiko, vaho tsy hapo’o ho momoke i Masi’oy. (Hadēs )
David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs )
Aa kanao nioni’e taolo, le nitoky i fivañonan-ko velo’ i Norizañeiy, te tsy hadòke an-tsikeokeok’ ao ty arofo’e vaho tsy hihomake i fañova’ey. (Hadēs )
Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when God will cause all that he has created to become new. Long ago God promised [to do that, and] he chose holy prophets to tell [that to people]. (aiōn )
ze tsi-mete tsy ho tanañe an-dikerañe ao hey ampara’ ty sam-pañavaoañe ze he’e tsinaran’ Añahare am-palie’ ze hene mpitoky masiñe boak’ am-pifotora’ ty voatse toy. (aiōn )
Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that. But] you are rejecting God’s message. [By doing that], you have shown that you are not worthy (to have eternal life/to live eternally [with God]). [Therefore], we are leaving [you, and now we] will go to the non-Jewish people [to tell them the message from God]. (aiōnios )
Nanoiñe ty hoe am-pahavaniañe t’i Paoly naho i Barnabasy: Tsy mete tsy nitaroña’ay hey i tsaran’ Añaharey, fe kanao nikihoe’ areo le nizaka-vatañe t’ie tsy mañeva i haveloñe nainai’ey, inao arè! mitolik’ amo kilakila ondatio zahay (aiōnios )
While the non-Jewish people were listening [to those words], they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord [Jesus] was wonderful. And all of the non-Jewish people whom [God] had chosen (to have eternal [life/to live eternally with God]) believed [the message about the Lord Jesus]. (aiōnios )
Ie jinanji’ o kilakila ondatio izay le niehake vaho niasy ty tsara’ Iehovà; vaho hene niantoke ze tinendre ho amy haveloñe nainai’ey. (aiōnios )
I [caused my people to know about them] long ago.” (aiōn )
hoe t’Iehovà mampahafohiñe o raha zao boake haehae añe. (aiōn )
[People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios )
Toe midodea boak’ ami’ty namboareñe ty voatse toy o sata’e tsi-isakeo, ty haozara’e tsy modo, naho t’ie Andrianamboatse, rendreke amo namboareñeo, tole ndra tsy aman-kaveroke iereo. (aïdios )
Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God. They worshipped and served things [that God] created instead of [worshipping and serving God himself], the one who created [everything. They did this even though] he [deserves that those he created] would forever praise him. Amen!/May it be so! (aiōn )
Atakalo’ iareo vande ty hatòn’ Añahare vaho mitalaho naho mitoroñe amo namboareñeo, fa tsy aman’ Andrianamboatse—I rengèñe nainai’ey. Amena. (aiōn )
[Specifically], some people, by continuing to doing good things, strive to be highly honored [by God] [DOU] and to receive a life that will not end. [God will reward them by enabling them] to live forever. (aiōnios )
le tolora’e haveloñe nainai’e o mipay engeñe naho asiñe naho tsy fihomahañe am-pimanean-kasoao; (aiōnios )
He did that in order that just like people everywhere inevitably sin, [which results in their] dying [MET, PRS], people everywhere might inevitably experience God’s acting kindly towards them in a way they do not deserve [MET, PRS] by [erasing the record of their sins]. [The result is that people can] live eternally because of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for them]. (aiōnios )
aa le hambañe amy te hakeo ty nifeleke an-kavilasy, te fatarihañe ty hifehe an-kañavantañe mb’an-kaveloñe nainai’e añamy Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey. (aiōnios )
But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios )
Aa ie hinaha an-kakeo naho mivohotse aman’ Añahare henaneo, ro mahazo ty hasoa i fiavahañey ie mamokatse haveloñe tsy modo. (aiōnios )
[What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift. What he gives us is that we live eternally because of [our relationship with] (OR, because [we are united to]) Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios )
Fihomahañe ty valen-kakeo, fe haveloñe nainai’e ro fatarihan’ Añahare amy Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey. (aiōnios )
It was our ancestors, [Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whom God chose to found our nation]. And, [most importantly], it was from us Israelites that the Messiah received his human nature. [Nevertheless, most of my fellow Israelites have rejected Christ], who is the one who controls all things! He is God, the one who is worthy that we praise him forever! This is true! (OR, Amen!) (aiōn )
a’ iareo o raeo, naho boak’am’iareo ami’ty nofotse i Norizañey—i ambone’ ze he’ey, i Andrianañahare rengeñe nainai’ey. Amena. (aiōn )
“Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us. You should not say that because Christ has already come down to save us, and has already become alive after he died]! (Abyssos )
ke: Ia ty hizotso mb’an-tsikeokeok’ao? (hampitroatse i Norizañey an-kavilasy). (Abyssos )
God has declared and proved that all people, [both Jews and non-Jews] [MET], disobey ([him/his laws]). He has declared that because he wants to act mercifully towards us all. (eleēsē )
Kila nagaben’ Añahare am-panjeharañe ao soa te hene hiferenaiña’e. (eleēsē )
God [is the one who created] all things. He is also the one who [sustains all things]. The reason that he created them was that [everything he created might praise] him. May [all people] honor him forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Fa tama’e, naho añama’e, vaho ho ama’e ty haliforañe. aze ty engeñe nainai’e kitro’afe’e. Amena. (aiōn )
Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you should act. Instead, let God change your [way of life] by making your way of thinking new, in order that you may know what he wants you to do. That is, you will know what is good, and you will know what pleases [God], and you will know how to be all that he wants you to be. (aiōn )
Ko mitsikombe ty voatse toy, fa miovà ami’ty fañavaoam-betsevetse, hamentea’ areo ty satrin’ arofon’ Añahare soa naho mahafale vaho fonitse. (aiōn )
As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios )
Ie amy zao, ho amy Mahafijadoñe anahareo ty amy talili-soako naho ty fitaroñañe Iesoà Norizañey, ty amy fampibentarañe i raha miheotse nakafitse haehae’ izay, (aiōnios )
but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios )
fe naboake henaneo, naho amo pinatem-pitokio ty amy nililien’ Añahare nainai’e tsy modoy, le fa nitaroñeñe amo kilakila ondatio hampivohotse iareo am-patokisañe. (aiōnios )
[I desire that by] Jesus Christ [enabling us, we] will forever praise the one who alone is God, who alone is [truly] wise. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Aman’ Añahare mahihitse tsi-roe-tsi-telo nainai’e abey ty engeñe, añam’ Iesoà Norizañey! Amena. (aiōn )
So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn )
Aia ze o mahihitse zao? Aia ty mahay taratasy? Aia ty mpionim-piheotse ami’ty sa’ toy? Tsy nanoen’ Añahare hanèñe hao ty hilala’ ty tane toy? (aiōn )
I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn )
Toe mitaroñe hihitse amo àñoñeo zahay, fa tsy ty hihi’ ty sa toy, ndra ty a o mpifehe’ an-tsa toio, ie sindre miha-modo. (aiōn )
Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn )
Toe mitaroñe i hihin’ Añahare nakafitsey zahay, i hihitse naetake pak’ henaney, f’ie norizan’ Añahare taolo’ ty sa toy hañonjona’e antika, (aiōn )
None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn )
ie ninofi’ o mpifehe an-tsa toio, fa naho nifohi’ iareo, le tsy ho pinè’ iareo i Talèn’ engeñey. (aiōn )
Some among you think that you are wise because unbelievers thought you were wise previously. Stop deceiving yourselves. [If you really want to be wise, by accepting what God considers to be wise] you should [be willing to let unbelievers consider that you are] foolish [IRO]. (aiōn )
Asoao tsy hamañahy vatañe. Naho ama’areo ty mihaboke hihitse ami’ty sa toy, soa re te hireke ho bahimo, hiha-hihitse. (aiōn )
So if [I, Paul, think that by] eating a certain food I might cause a fellow believer to be ruined spiritually, I will never eat such food again. I do not want to cause any fellow believer (to be ruined spiritually/to stop believing in Christ). [And you should] ([do as I do/imitate my example]). (aiōn )
Aa naho hampanan-kakeo i longokoy ty mahakama, le tsy hikama hena kitro katroke iraho, tsy mone hamingan-dongo. (aiōn )
All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn )
Toe nanoeñe ho fandrazañañe i nifetsake am’iereo rezay vaho sinokitse hañòke antika nitsatoha’ o sa honka’e zao. (aiōn )
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs )
O Havilasio, aia ty fandrebaha’o? O Tsikeokeokeo, aia ty finipoha’o? (Hadēs )
[Satan, who is] the one [who rules] this world, controls the thoughts of those unbelievers. He prevents them from understanding the message about how wonderful Christ is. [They are not able to understand that] Jesus is like God [in every way]. (aiōn )
fa nampigoa’ ty ndrañaharen-tsa toy ty fivetsevetse’ o tsi-miantokeo, tsy hahaisake ty fireandrea’ ty talili-soan’ enge’ i Norizañey, i vintan’ Añaharey. (aiōn )
[I know that] all these troubles that [happen to us in this life are] not significant and will not last forever. [When we think of] the glorious things [that God is preparing] for us [to enjoy] forever [in heaven], all [our suffering now] is not important. (aiōnios )
Le i hasotriañe maivañe tsy maremaretse toiy ro mamokatse engeñe tsy ri’e mavesatse tsy amañ’ohatse. (aiōnios )
That is why we say, “We will not continue thinking about [all the suffering that we] are experiencing now. Even though [we] cannot see [all the things that God has prepared for us in heaven], those are what we should be thinking about.” [That is how we should think], because [all these troubles] that [we(exc)] have [now] will last only a short time. But what [we will have in heaven], what [we] cannot see [now], will last forever. (aiōnios )
Le tsy o isam-pihainoo ty biribirie’ay fa o tsy isakeo, amy te mihelañe o raha isakeo, fe tsy ho modo nainai’e o tsy isam-pihainoo. (aiōnios )
We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios )
Fohin-tikañe te, ie arotsake ty kijà imoneñan-tikañ’ an-tane atoy, le manañe ty nitsenen’ Añahare, anjomba tsy nanoem-pitàñe, ie tsy ho modo nainai’e andindìñe ao. (aiōnios )
[Those who give willingly and cheerfully will be rewarded like the man about whom] it is written {[about whom] (someone/the Psalmist) wrote} in the Scriptures, He generously [helps others], [he gives to those] who are poor. [God will remember] the good things that he did, [and reward him with] good things forever. (aiōn )
Hoe ty pinatetse: Naboele’e mbeo’ mbeo, Nifahana’e o rarakeo; Nainai’e ty havantaña’e. (aiōn )
God, who is the Father of our [(inc)] Lord Jesus, and who is the one [whom we should] praise forever, knows that I am not lying [about this]. (aiōn )
Arofoanan’ Añahare Rae’ i Talè Iesoà Norizañey, i andriañeñe nainai’ey, te tsy mavande iraho. (aiōn )
Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] in order that [he might remove the guilt for] our sins. He did that in order that he might enable us to not [do the evil things that people who do not know him] do. [He did this] because God, who is our Father, wanted it. (aiōn )
ie nanolo-piaiñe ty amo hakeon-tikañeo, handrombake antika ami’ty sa raty henaneo, ty amy satrin’ Añahare Raen-tikañe; (aiōn )
[I pray that people will] praise God forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )

[God] will punish eternally those who do what their self-directed natures urge them to do. But those who please [God’s] Spirit will live forever [with God] because of what [God’s] Spirit does for them. (aiōnios )
I mitongy amy haondati’eiy, ro hanatake hamomohañe amy haondati’ey; fa i mitongy amy Arofoy, le i Arofoy ty hanataha’e haveloñe nainai’e. (aiōnios )
[There], Christ is the supreme ruler over every powerful spirit of every level of authority. His rank is much higher than any powerful spirit can receive, not only now, but forever. (aiōn )
ambone andikera’ ze hene lily naho haozarañe naho fifeheañe vaho ze kila tahinañe toñoneñe, tsy ami’ty sa toy avao, fa amy ho aviy ka. (aiōn )
You were acting in the same [evil] way as those who oppose Christ [MTY] act. That is, you were behaving in the [evil] ways [that Satan wanted you to behave]. He rules over evil spiritual beings that no person can see [MTY]. He is the spirit who now powerfully controls the people who disobey God. (aiōn )
ie nañavelo an-tsata’ ty voatse toy te taolo, nañorike ty ana-dovàn-kaozara’ i tiokey, i fañahy mifanehake an-tro’ o anam-panjeharañeoy. (aiōn )

That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn )

Because of our relationship with Christ Jesus, may all (believers/those who belong to him) praise him forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
ama’e ty engeñe amy Fivoriy naho am’ Iesoà Norizañey ao pak’ an-tariratse tsitso’e, nainai’e donia! Amena. (aiōn )
You must do this because the fighting that we [believers] do is not only against human beings [SYN]. Instead, we are also fighting against evil spirits who rule and have authority over all that is evil [MET] in the world. And we are fighting against evil spirits who are in heavenly places (OR, everywhere). (aiōn )

[Our Lord Jesus] will forbid them from ever coming near to him and near to the glory which he has [because he is so] powerful (OR, the glory that is manifested by his power). He will cause those people to suffer forever. (aiōnios )

Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios )

Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me in order that he might demonstrate [to people that he is perfectly patient with them]. He did that by his being patient with me, one who has sinned worse than everyone else. He wanted what he did for me (to be an example/to demonstrate his patience) to people who would [later] believe in him, and as a result would live forever. (aiōnios )

Try earnestly and with all your energy/strength [MET] to live in accordance with what you believe. [Continue to do your tasks well in order that] you will know for sure that you will live eternally.

He is the only one who will never die, [and he lives in heaven surrounded by] light [that is so bright that] no one can approach it! He is the one whom no person has ever seen and whom no person is able to see! My desire is that all people will honor him and that he [will rule] powerfully [MTY] forever! (May it be so!/Amen!)

Tell [the believers] who are rich here in this present world that they should not be proud, and that they should not trust in their many [possessions], because they cannot be certain [how long they will have them]. Teach them that instead of [trusting in their wealth, they should trust] in God. He is the one who generously gives us everything we have in order that we may enjoy it. (aiōn )

[God] saved us and chose us to conduct our lives in a pure way. It was not our doing good deeds/actions [that caused him to do this for us—something] that we did not deserve. Instead, before (time began/he created the world) he purposed/planned to [be kind to us] as a result of what Christ Jesus [would do for us]. (aiōnios )

Therefore I [willingly] endure all [that I am suffering] for the sake of those [whom God has] chosen. [I do this] in order that Christ Jesus will save them, too, and that they will be forever with [him in the] glorious [place where he is]. (aiōnios )

[I say that] because Demas has left me. He wanted very much [the good things that he might enjoy] [MTY] in this world [right now], and so he went to Thessalonica [city]. Crescens [went to serve the Lord] in Galatia [province], and Titus went to Dalmatia [district]. (aiōn )

God teaches/tells us [PRS] how to stop doing what he dislikes, and to stop desiring the things that (ungodly people/people who habitually do things that do not please God) desire [MTY]. He wants us to control our behavior and to do what is right and to do what pleases him while we live in this present age/time. (aiōn )

He wanted to erase the record of our sins even though we did not deserve that, and he wanted us to receive all that [God desires] to give us. [These are the things that we] confidently expect to receive when we live [with him] eternally. (aiōnios )

Perhaps the reason that [God permitted] Onesimus to be separated from {to leave} you for a little while was that [he would believe in Christ, and as a result] you would have him (back/with you) forever! (aiōnios )
Va’e izay ty nifampirià’e ama’o betebeteke handrambesa’o aze indraike ho pak’ añ’afeafe’e añe, (aiōnios )
But now when this final age [is beginning], God has communicated to us [just once] by means of what (his Son/the man who was also God) [said and did. God] appointed him in order that he would possess everything [that truly belongs to God. God also appointed] him in order that he would create the universe. (aiōn )

But on the other hand, [in the Scriptures it is written that God said] this to his Son: You [(sg)] who are [also] God will rule forever [MTY], and you will reign righteously over your kingdom [MTY]. (aiōn )
Fe hoe re amy Anakey: Nainai’e donia ry Andrianañahare ty fiambesa’o; Naho kobain-kavantañañe ty kobaim-pifehea’o. (aiōn )
And he also said [to Christ what the Psalmist wrote] in another Scripture passage, You are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn )
mbore teo ty nanovoña’e ty hoe: Mpisoroñe nainai’e irehe ami’ty famosora’ i Melkizedeke. (aiōn )
By becoming (all [that] God intended him to be/perfect), [he has now] become fully qualified [to be our Supreme Priest. As a result, he is the one who saves] eternally all who obey him. (aiōnios )

[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 )
naho ty fañòheñe i filiporañey, i fanampezam-pitàñey, i fivañonan-ko veloñey, vaho i zaka tsy modoy. (aiōnios )
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 )
nikama amy saontsin’ Añahare soay naho amo haozara’ i sa ho aviio, (aiōn )
Jesus went [into God’s presence] ahead of us [(inc)] to [help] us when he became a Supreme Priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest. (aiōn )
i niziliha’ Iesoà fiaolon-tikañey, ie nanoeñe Mpisorom-bey nainai’e amy famosora’ i Melkizedekey. (aiōn )
[We know this] since [God] confirmed it in [the Scripture passage in which he said to his Son], You [(sg)] are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn )
Ty hoe ty nitaroñe’e: Mpisoroñe nainai’e irehe Amy famosora’ i Melkizedekey. (aiōn )
However, when he [appointed Christ to be a priest], it was by these words that [the Psalmist wrote in Scripture]: The Lord has solemnly declared [to the Messiah], —and he will not change his mind— “You will be a priest forever!” (aiōn )
(toe tsy fanoeñ’ am-panta o mpisoroñeo, f’itoy ro am-panta, ie nanoeñe ty hoe: Toe nifanta t’Iehovà vaho tsy hihotike: Mpisoroñe nainai’e irehe.) (aiōn )
But because [Jesus] lives eternally, he will continue to be a Supreme Priest forever. (aiōn )
Fa itìañe ka, kanao mitoloñe nainai’e, ro am-pisoroñañe tsy ifandimbezañe. (aiōn )
[We need a Supreme Priest like] him, because in the laws [that God gave Moses] [PRS] the ones who would be appointed to be priests would be men who tended [to sin easily]. But [God] solemnly [declared] [PRS] after [he had given] his laws [to Moses] that [he would appoint] (his Son/the man who is also God) [to be a Supreme Priest. Now] ([his Son/the man who is also God]) has forever become all that God intends him to be. (aiōn )
Oriza’ i Hake t’indaty aman-kila ho mpisorom-bey; fe i tsara am-panta sinokitse tafara’ i Hake ty nañorizañe i Anake nifonireñe ho nainai’ey. (aiōn )
[When a Supreme Priest goes into the inner room in the tent each year, he takes] goats’ blood and calves’ blood [to offer as a sacrifice]. But Christ did not [do that. It was as though] he went into that very holy place only once, taking his own blood with him. By doing that, he eternally redeemed us. (aiōnios )
le tsy ami’ty lion’ose ndra temboay fa amy lio’ey ty niziliha’e amy toetse masiñey indraike nahafonitse, ie fa ama’e ty fañahàñe tsy modo. (aiōnios )
[So, because we know what] Christ [accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died for us] [PRS, MTY], we will be very certain that we are not guilty [of having] done those things [that those who are spiritually] dead do. [As a result], we can serve God, who is all-powerful. [The priests always offer to God animals] with no defects. Similarly, when Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] to God, he was sinless [MET]. He did that as a result of [God’s] eternal Spirit [helping him]. (aiōnios )
sandrake ty lio’ i Norizañey añamy Arofo tsy modoy, ie nengae’e tsy aman-kila aman’ Añahare i fañòva’ey, ro hahalio ty arofo’ areo amo sata-mateo, hitoroñe an’ Andrianañahare veloñe. (aiōnios )
[By] dying [for us], [Christ] ([redeemed/] free from the penalty for their sins) even those who disobeyed the [conditions of] (OR, [during the time of]) the first covenant. So, [because] no [one could be made perfect by obeying the old covenant], now Christ establishes [between God and people] a new covenant. He does that in order that those whom God has chosen may eternally have [the blessings that God] has promised them. (aiōnios )
Izay ty maha mpañalañala’ i fañina vaoy aze, handrambesa’ o kinanjio i lova nainai’e nampitamañey—ty amy fañorihan-dio mijebañe iareo amo fandilarañe ambane’ i fañina valoha’ey. (aiōnios )
[If that were so], he would have needed to suffer [and shed his blood] repeatedly since [the time when God] created the world. But instead, in this final age, [Christ] has appeared once in order that by sacrificing himself he could cause [that people] no longer will be [punished for their] sins. (aiōn )
Naho tsy izay, tsy mete tsy nitolom-pilofeke re boak’ ami’ty fañamboareñe ty voatse toy. F’ie henaneo an-tsàn-konka’e toy te niboake indraik’ avao hañefetse o tahiñeo amy nisoroña’ey i fañòva’ey. (aiōn )
It is because we trust in God that we understand that he formed the universe by commanding [it to exist]. The result is that the things that we see were not made from things that already existed. (aiōn )
Fatokisañe ty ahaoniñan-tika amy Tsinaran’ Añaharey, te tsy nalaha’e amo raha oniñeo o raha miboake amo sào. (aiōn )
Jesus Christ [is] the same now as he was previously, and he will be the same forever. (aiōn )
Tsy mihotike t’Iesoà Norizañe, ndra omale, ndra androany, ndra nainai’e donia. (aiōn )
Jesus [provides for us], [protects us, and guides us as] a great shepherd does for his sheep [MET]. And God, who gives us [inner] peace, brought our Lord Jesus back to life. By doing that, God ratified his eternal covenant with us by the blood [that flowed from Jesus when he died on the] cross. (aiōnios )
I Andrianañaharem-panintsiñañey abey, i nampitroatse i Mpiarak’ añondry ra’elahy boak’an-kavilasiy, amy liom-pañina tsy modo’ Iesoà Talèn-tika, (aiōnios )
So I pray that God will equip you with everything good [that you need in order] that you may do the things that he desires. May he accomplish in our lives whatever he considers pleasing as a result of Jesus Christ [equipping us]. May Jesus Christ be praised forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
ro hampañeneke anahareo amy ze hene sata soa hitoroña’areo amo satrie’eo, ie hitoloñe aman-tika ze no’e am-pivazohoa’e, añam’ Iesoà Norizañey: aze ty engeñe nainai’e tsy modo. Amena. (aiōn )
[Just like a fire damages a forest] [MET], when we say things that are evil, [we harm many people]. What we say [MTY] reveals that we are very evil. What we say contaminates/defiles everything that we think and do [PRS, MET]. [Just like a flame of fire easily] causes [the whole surrounding area] [MET] to burn, what we say [MTY] can cause [others] to want to do evil. It is the devil himself [MTY] who causes us to say evil things. (Geenna )
Afo i famelekey, haliforan-katserehañe; napok’ amo haraon-tikañ’ ao i famelekey f’ie mahativa i sandriñey iaby, naho mamiañ’ afo an-dalam-pañaveloan-tika, toe ampiforehete’ i tsikeokeokey. (Geenna )
[I ask you to do this, because you now have] a new life [MET]. It was not [by means of] something that will perish that you received this new life. Instead, it was [by means of] something that will last forever; that is, by believing the life-giving and enduring message of God. (aiōn )
amy t’ie nisamaheñe fañindroe’e, tsy an-tabiry mora momoke, fa amo tsy momokeo, an-tsaran’ Añahare veloñe tsy mete modo. (aiōn )
but God’s message endures/lasts forever. This message [that endures/lasts] is the message [about Christ] that was proclaimed to you. (aiōn )
fe tsy mb’ia ho modo ty tsara’ Iehovà. Izay i tsara nitaroñeñe ama’areoy. (aiōn )
Those who speak [to the congregation] should do that as though they are speaking the [very] words of God. Those who do kind things to others should do it with the strength that God gives them, in order that God may be honored by all this {that all this may honor God} as Jesus Christ [enables us to do it. I pray that we will] praise [God] (OR, [Jesus]) and allow him [to rule over us] forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Ndra iaia misaontsy le manahake t’ie misaontsy o fetsen’ Añahareo; ze mitoroñe, le ami’ty haozarañe atolon’ Añahare aze, soa te amy ze he’e, ho rengèñe t’i Andrianañahare añam’ Iesoà Norizañey. Aze ty engeñe naho ty fifeheañe nainai’e donia. Amena. (aiōn )
God is the one who kindly helps us in every [situation], and [he is the one] who chose us to share his eternal glory/greatness [in heaven] because of our relationship with Christ. [And] after you have suffered for a while [because of things that people do to harm you], he will remove your spiritual defects/imperfections, he will strengthen you [spiritually] [DOU], and he will support you [emotionally]. (aiōnios )
Ie fa nalovilovy betebete nahareo, le i Andrianañahare’ o hene hasoaoy, i nikanjy anahareo ho amy enge’e tsy modo amy Norizañey aoiy, ro hañeneke naho hamente naho hampaozatse, vaho hampijadoñe anahareo. (aiōnios )
[I pray/desire that] he will [rule] powerfully forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
Aze ty fifeheañe nainai’e donia. Amena. (aiōn )
and [God] will very wholeheartedly welcome you into the place where our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will rule [his people] forever. (aiōnios )
vaho hatobake ama’areo ty fizilihañe am-Pifehea-tsy modo’ i Talè naho Mpañàha an-tika, Iesoà Norizañey. (aiōnios )
God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō )
Fa kanao tsy nengan’ Añahare o anjely nandilatseo, le nafetsa’e an-tsikeokeok’ ao, vaho nasese’e an-tsilisily mb’ an-kamoromoroñañe ao handiñe zaka; (Tartaroō )
[Instead, live in such a manner that you] experience more and more our Savior Jesus Christ being kind [to you], and that you get to know him [better and better]. 2 Peter 3:18b [I pray/desire that Jesus Christ] will be honored both now and forever! (aiōn )
F’ie mitomboa ami’ty hasoa naho ami’ty faharendrehañe i Talèntika Iesoà Mpandrombake Norizañey. Ama’e ty engeñe henaneo naho pak’ an-tsa tsy modo! Amena. (aiōn )
Because he came here [to the earth] and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the [one who] has always lived. He was [previously] with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us. (aiōnios )
(Fa naboake i haveloñey le niisa’ay, naho mitalily, vaho itaroña’ay i haveloñe nainai’e aman-dRae ao vaho nabentatse ama’aiy.) (aiōnios )
The [godless people in] the world [MTY], along with what they desire, will disappear, but those who do what God wants [them to do] will live forever! You know that it is now the final period of this age when there are liars who deny that Jesus is God’s Chosen One. But you have the power of God’s Spirit and you know what is true and what is false. So continue to live according to the true message that you heard when you began to believe in Christ, in order that you may continue to live united both to God’s Son and to the Father. (aiōn )
Fa mihelañe añe ty voatse toy naho o ìna rati’eo, fe ho veloñe nainai’e ty manao o satrin’ Añahareo. (aiōn )
And what God told us is that [he will cause us] to live forever! (aiōnios )
Zao i nampitamae’e antikañey, le i haveloñe nainai’e tsy modoy. (aiōnios )
Those who hate [any of] their fellow believers, [God considers] [MET] them [to be] murderers. And you know that no murderer has eternal life. (aiōnios )
Ndra ia ia malain-dongo ro mpamono ondaty, le fohi’ areo te tsy imoneñan-kaveloñe nainai’e ty mpañoho-doza. (aiōnios )
This is what [God] says [to us]: “I have given you eternal life!” We will live forever if we have a close relationship with his Son. (aiōnios )
Zao i taroñey te tinolon’ Añahare haveloñe nainai’e tika; vaho amy Ana’ey i haveloñe zay. (aiōnios )
I have written this [letter] to you who believe that Jesus is [MTY] (God’s Son/the one who is also God) in order that you may know that you have eternal life. (aiōnios )
Nanokitse izay ama’areo mpiato amy tahinan’ Anan’ Añaharey iraho, haharendreha’ areo t’ie aman-kaveloñe nainai’e. (aiōnios )
We also know that (God’s Son/the one who is also God) has come [to us], and [we know] that he has enabled us to know God, the one who is really/truly God. So now we have a close relationship with [God because] we belong to Jesus Christ, the one who is the (Son of/man who is also) God. Jesus Christ is truly God, and [he is the one who enables us to have] eternal life. (aiōnios )
Fohin-tika te nivotrak’ atoy i Anan’ Añaharey, naho nampandrendrek’ antika hahafohinan-tika i Vantañey, naho t’ie amy Vantañey, toe amy Ana’e Iesoà Norizañey. Ie t’i Andrianañahare to naho haveloñe nainai’e. (aiōnios )
All of us [believe God’s] true message. It is in our ([inner beings/hearts]) and we will continue [to believe it] forever! (aiōn )
ie i hatò mimoneñe aman-tikañe vaho ho aman-tikañe nainai’ey. (aiōn )
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios , questioned)
naho nitambozore’e an-drohy tsy modo am-pimoromoroñañe ao ampara’ i zaka amy andro jabajabaiy o anjely tsy nitañe ty nañorizañe iareo naho nifary i toe’ iareo do’ey; (aïdios )
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios , questioned)

They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn , questioned)
onjan-driake mivalitaboake mandoa voren-kameñarañe; vasiañe mirererere nañajàñe ieñe mimoromoroñe zafezanake. (aiōn )
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios )
tambozoro i fikokoan’ Añaharey, itamao ty fiferenaiña’ i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey minday haveloñe nainai’ey. (aiōnios )
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )
Ho aman’ Añahare tokañe mahihitse, Mpandrombak’ antikañe, ty engeñe naho volonahetse, fifeheañe vaho haozarañe, taolo’ ze sa, henaneo vaho nainai’e donia. Amena. (aiōn )
He is [the one who] has caused us to become people whose lives God rules, and he has made us to be priests [who serve] God his Father. [As a result of this, we acknowledge that] Jesus Christ is eternally divine and eternally powerful. (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )
vaho nanoe’e mpanjaka naho mpisoroñe aman’ Añahare, Rae’e. Aze ty engeñe naho ty haozarañe nainai’e donia! Amena. (aiōn )
I am the living one. Although I died, I am alive again and will live forever! I have [the power to cause people] to die, and I have authority over the place where all the dead people [are]. (aiōn , Hadēs )

The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn )
Ndra mbia’ mbia te mandrenge naho miasy vaho mañandriañe i miambesatse amy fiambesatseiy—i veloñe nainai’e doniay—i raha veloñe rey, (aiōn )
Whenever they do that, the 24 elders (prostrate themselves/kneel down) before the one who sits on the throne, and they worship him, the one who lives forever. They lay their crowns in front of the throne and sing: (aiōn )
le mibabok’ añatrefa’ i miambesatse amy fiambesatseiy i androanavy roapolo efats’ amby rey mitalaho amy veloñe nainai’e doniay, vaho mañifike o sabakam-bolonahe’ iareoo añatrefa’ i fiambesam-bolonahetsey, manao ty hoe: (aiōn )
I also heard every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the ocean, every creature in all those places, saying (OR, singing): “We must forever praise and honor the one who sits on the throne and the one who is like a lamb, May they reign with complete power forever!” (aiōn )

This time I saw a pale horse [come out]. The one who sat on it is named ‘[The one who causes] death [PRS]’, and [the one that is named ‘The place where dead people go’] accompanied him. [God] gave them authority over one quarter of the people on earth to incite them to kill each other with weapons [SYN], and also authority to kill them (by [causing them to] starve, by [their causing them to become] sick from epidemics, and by [their causing them to be attacked by] wild animals. (Hadēs )

They said, “May it be so! [We(exc)] praise, thank, and honor [you], our [(exc)] God, forever! [We(exc) acknowledge] that you are completely wise, the powerful one, who is forever able to accomplish everything he wants to. (May everyone acknowlege that it is so!/Amen!)” (aiōn )

The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos )
Nitioke i anjely faha limey, le nitreako ty vasiañe nigodoiñe an-tane eo hirik’ andindìñe ey, vaho natolotse aze ty lahin-dakilè’ i vovon-tsikeokeokey. (Abyssos )
When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos )
Sinoka’e i tsikeokeokey, le niforoake hirik’ an-koboñ’ao ty hatoeñe hoe boak’ an-toñake jabajaba. Nimaie’ i hatoeñe naporoa’ i Tsikeokeokeiy i àndroy naho i tiokey. (Abyssos )
The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos )
Amam-panjaka mifehe iereo, ty anjeli’ i Tsikeokeokey: i Abadona ty añara’e ami’ty Hebreo, naho Apoliona ty añara’e ami’ty Grika. (Abyssos )
and he asked the one who lives forever, the one who created heaven and everything that is in it, [who created] the earth and everything that is in it, and [who created] the ocean and everything that is in it, to affirm that what he said was true. [He said that he] would surely no longer delay [what he had planned to do]. (aiōn )

When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos )
Ie heneke ty fitalilia’ iareo, le hialia’ i biby miakats’ an-tsikeokeokey le handrebake naho hañè-doza am’ iereo, (Abyssos )
Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn )
Nitioke i anjely faha-fitoy le hoe ty fipoñam-piarañanañañe maro andindìñe ey: Fa a’ i Talèn-tikañey, toe i Noriza’ey o fifehea’ ty voatse toio henane zao, ie ho fehe’e nainai’e donia. (aiōn )
I saw another angel that was flying between the sky and heaven. He was bringing [God’s] eternal good message [to earth], in order that he might proclaim it to people who live on the earth. He will proclaim it to every nation, [to every] tribe, [to speakers of every] language [MTY], and [to every] people-[group]. (aiōnios )
Nitreako amy zao ty anjely tovo’e nitiliñe an-teñateñan-dikerañe eñe minday i talili-soa tsy modoy, hitsey amo mpimoneñe an-tane atoio naho amy ze kila fifeheañe naho foko naho fameleke vaho ondaty, (aiōnios )
The smoke [from the fire] that torments them will rise forever. [They will] be tormented {[God will] torment them} continually, day and night. [That is what will happen to] the people who worship the beast and its image and who allow its name to be marked on them {allow [its agent] to mark them with its name}.” (aiōn )
Le hionjoñe nainai’e kitro katroke ty hatoe’ i fampisoañañ’ iareoy; tsy ho amam-pitofàñe ndra handro ndra haleñe o mitalaho amy bibiy naho amy sare’eio, vaho ze mandrambe i vilo’ i añara’eiy. (aiōn )
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn )
vaho natolo’ ty raik’ amy raha veloñe efatse rey amy anjely fito rey ty finga volamena fito pea’ ty haviñera’ i Andrinañahare veloñe nainai’e doniay. (aiōn )
The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos )
I biby nitrea’oy le teo, fa tsy eo, vaho fa hiakatse boak’ an-tsikeokeok’ ao mb’ am-pirotsaha’e mb’eo. Hahalatsa o mpimoneñe an-tane atoy tsy pinatetse amy boken-kaveloñe tam-pifotora’ ty voatse toio, t’ie hahaisake i biby teo naho tsy eo vaho mbe ho aviy. (Abyssos )
[The crowd] shouted a second time saying: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) The smoke of the fire that is burning the cities will rise forever! (aiōn )
Nindrai’ iereo ty hoe: Halelo-Ia! Hihobobòke nainai’e donia o hatoe’eo. (aiōn )
The beast and the false prophet were captured {[He] captured the beast and the false prophet}. The false prophet is the one who had performed miracles in the beast’s presence. By doing that he had deceived the people who had accepted the beast’s mark [on their foreheads] and who worshipped its image. The beast and the false prophet were thrown {[He] threw the beast and the one who falsely said that he spoke messages that came directly from God} alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (Limnē Pyr )
Le tsinepake i bibiy naho nindre ama’e i mpitoky sare’e nanao viloñe tsitantane añatrefa’e naho namañahy o nandrambe ty vilo’ i bibiy vaho nitalaho amy sare’ eioy. Navokovoko veloñe amy antara mirebareba afo manodotse solifaray ao ie roe, (Limnē Pyr )
I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the deep dark pit, and he was carrying a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos )
Le naheoko ty anjely nizotso boak’ andindìñe ey nitañe ty lahin-dakilen-tsikeokeoke naho am-pità’e ty silisily jabajaba. (Abyssos )
The angel threw him into the deep dark pit. He shut [the door of the pit], locked it, and sealed it [to prevent anyone from opening it]. He did that in order that Satan might no longer deceive [the people of the] nations [MTY], until those 1,000 years are ended. After that [time], Satan must be released {[God/God’s angel] must release Satan} for a short time [in order that he can do what God has planned]. (Abyssos )

The devil, who had deceived those people, will be thrown {[God’s angel] will throw the devil, who had deceived those people} into the lake of burning sulfur. [This is the same lake] into which both the beast and the false prophet had been [thrown] {[he] had [thrown] both the beast and the false prophet}. [As a result], they will continually suffer severely forever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )

[The people whose bodies were buried in the] sea [became alive again in order to stand before God’s throne]. Everyone who had been buried on the land (OR, Every person who was waiting in the place where dead people stay) [became alive again, in order to stand before the throne]. [God] judged each one of them according to what each one had done. (Hadēs )
Nafoe’ i riakey o vilasy ama’eo, le naloa’ i Havilasy naho i Tsikeokeokey o vilasy am’iereoo, vaho zinaka, songa ty amo fitoloña’eo. (Hadēs )
All the unbelievers [PRS, MTY] —those who had been in the place where they waited after they died— [were thrown into the burning lake]. The burning lake is [the place in which people] die the second time. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )

The people whose [names] [MTY] are not in the book, the one [where God] has written [the names of people who] have [eternal] life, [were also thrown] {([God/God’s angel]) threw them also} [into the lake] of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
Le nafetsak’ amy antara afoy ze tsy nioniñe sinokitse amy boken-kaveloñey ao. (Limnē Pyr )
But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr )
Fe o mahimahiñeo naho o tsi-miatoo naho o lo-tserekeo naho o mpañoho-dozao naho o mañarapiloo naho o mpamorekeo naho o mpiato am-pahasiveo vaho ze hene haremborake ro hanañ’ anjara amy antara manodotse an-tsolifaray ao. Izay ty havilasy faharoe. (Limnē Pyr )
There will never again be night. [God’s servants] will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine his light upon them. And they will rule forever. (aiōn )

My [committing adultery] would [produce in me a fire like] [MET] the fire that burns people in hell, and it would burn up everything that I own. ()
If you go into houses of women who are like that, you will die [when you are still young]; the road [to their houses] leads to hell. ()
They will look around the land and see only trouble/distress and darkness and things that cause them to despair. And [then] they will be thrown into the very black darkness [of hell]. ()
Many of those who have died [EUP] will become alive again. Some of them will live eternally [with God], and some will be eternally shamed/disgraced [in hell]. ()
“As for me, I [am not very important, because] I baptize you [only] with water. I [baptize you] because of your feeling sorry that you have sinned. But someone else will come soon who is very great; [he will do powerful deeds] (OR, [act powerfully]). [Because he is] superior to me, I am not worthy [even to do a menial task for him, such as] to carry his sandals. He will put [his] Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change] the way you live [MET], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [in hell]. ()
“[Going to] where people live eternally [with God in heaven] is difficult. [It is like] going along a narrow road [PRS, MET] that leads to a narrow gate. Not many people find that way. [The way] that most [people take] is easy, [but it results in their being punished] {[God punishing them]} [in hell. That way is like a] wide road that people walk on [PRS, MET] until they reach the wide gate, but that road and that gate lead to where [they] will be destroyed {[God] will destroy them}. Many people enter that gate. So I [am telling you to leave the wide road and] enter the narrow gate [to heaven].” ()
[And] all the trees that do not produce good fruit are chopped down and burned in a fire {people chop them down and burn them in a fire} [to get rid of them]. [Similarly], those who falsely claim to be prophets [will be thrown] {[God will throw false prophets]} [into the fires of hell]. ()
But [the Jews] [IDM] [who should have allowed] God to rule over them will be sent to [hell, where there is] total darkness. And as a result, they will weep [because of their suffering] and will grind their teeth [because they will have severe pain] [MTY].” ()
“You [people who live in] Chorazin [city] [MTY] and you [people who live in] Bethsaida [city] [MTY] will suffer terribly in hell! [I] did great miracles in your [cities, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in [the ancient cities of] Tyre and Sidon, the [wicked people who lived there] long ago would have sat in ashes, wearing coarse cloth [to show that they were sorry for their sins]. ()
They will throw those people into the fires of [hell]. There those people will weep and grind their teeth [because of the great pain that they are suffering]. ()
They will throw the wicked people into the fire [in hell]. And those wicked people will weep and gnash their teeth [because of the intense pain they are suffering].” ()
Do not pay any attention to [the Pharisees]. They [do not help people who do not know God’s truth] to [understand it, just like] blind guides [do not help] blind [people to perceive where they should go] [MET]. If a blind person [tries to] lead [another] blind person, they will both fall into a big hole [MET]. [Similarly, both the Pharisees and their disciples will end up in hell].” ()
In the same way [that shepherds do not want one of] their [sheep to stray away], so [God], your Father in heaven, does not want [even] one of these children to go to hell.” ()
John replied to them all, “No, [I am not]. I used [only] water when I baptized you. But [the Messiah] will soon come! He is far greater than I am.

He will put [his] Holy Spirit within [MTY] you [to truly change your lives], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [MET] [in hell]. ()

But Peter said to him, “May you [(sg)] and your money go to hell, because you [mistakenly] think that you can buy [from us] what God [alone] gives to [people] ()
If [the things that we have taught] are not valuable and long-lasting [MET], [we will not get a reward]. We will be saved {[God] will save us} [from hell], but [that is all that we will get. We will be like a man who] escapes from a fire [without saving any of his possessions]. ()
And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. ()
To those who [are on the way to hell, our message is like] [MET] a foul smell [because it is about dying] and being separated from God forever. But, to those [on the way to heaven, the message that we teach is like] a pure fragrant smell, [because we tell them] that they will live [forever with God. As we think about that, we think] (no one is able [to do] such important work [for God!]/how can anyone be able [to do] such important work [for God]?) [RHQ] ()
And by doing wicked [things], he will completely deceive those who will [certainly] (perish/go to hell). [He will deceive them] because they will have refused to love the true [message]. So they will not be saved {God will not save them}. ()
These [teachers who each false things mislead/deceive people by promising what they cannot do], as [MET] dried-up springs [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect to get water from them]. They [mislead/deceive people] [MET] just like clouds that are blown along by strong winds [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect rain, but no rain falls. Therefore], God has reserved the darkness of hell [for those teachers of false doctrines]. ()
