Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Henu imani ndo hakika j'haajhe najhu munu bhwakati pailonda khenu fulani kwa bhujasiri.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
Ndo hakika jha khenu ambakyo kakona kubhonekana. Kwandabha ejhe bhakhokho bhitu bhathibitiki kwa imani jha bhene.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which appeared. (aiōn g165)
Kwa imani tumanyili kujha ulimwengu bhwabhombiki kwa amri jha K'yara, ili kujha khila kyakibhonekana kyatengenesibhu lepi kufwatana ni fenu ambafyo fibhonekeneghe. (aiōn g165)
4 By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained testimony that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
Jhajhele kwa ndabha jha imani kujha Habili ampisili K'yara sadaka jhajhilondeka kuliko kya abhombili Kaini. Jhajhele kwa ndabha ejhe kujha atufibhu kujha ndo jhajhele ni haki. K'yara an'tufisi kwandabha jha zawadi syaaletili. Kwandabha ejhu, Habili bado ijobha, ingabhwa afuili.
5 By faith Enoch was translated, that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Enoko atolibhu kunani na abhwene lepi mauti. “Abhonekenelepi, kwandabha K'yara an'tolili” kwa fela jhajobhibhu panani pa muene kujha ampendisi K'yara kabla jha kutolibhwa kunani.
6 But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Bila imani jhibhwesekanalepi kumpendesya K'yara, kwa kujha jhaakumanyisya kwa K'yara lazima akierajhi kujha K'yara itama ni kabhele akabhapela zawadi bhala bhabhakan'kesya.
7 By faith Noah, being warned by God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Nuhu, ajhele aonyibhu ni K'yara kuhusiana ni mambo ambagho ghabhonekene lepi, kwa litengu lya ki K'yara atengenisi safina kwandabha jha kujhiokola familia jha muene. Kwa kubhomba naha, abhuhukumuili bhulimwengu ni kujha mrithi bhwa haki ambajho jhihida kup'ete'ela imani.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to remove into a place which he should afterwards receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out not knowing whither he was going.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Ibrahimu, bho akutibhu ajhedekili ni kulota mahali ambapo alondekegha kujhamb'el'ela kama bhurithi. Ahomili bila kumanya mahali paloki pa aloteghe.
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as [in] a foreign country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha atamili mu nchi jha ahadi kama n'hesya. Atamili mu mahema pamonga ni Isaka ni Yakobo, bharithi bhajhi ni bha ahadi jhelajhela.
10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker [is] God.
Ejhe kwandabha ategemeleghe kukabha mji ambabho n'kolo kuubuni ni njengaji ghwa muene ngaajhele K'yara.
11 Through faith also Sarah herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Ibrahimu, ni Sara muene bhapokili nghofu jha kutonga mimba ingabhwa bhajhele bhaseya nesu kwa ndabha bhambwene K'yara kujha mwaminifu, ambajhe abhaahadili muana n'gosi.
12 Therefore there sprang even from one, and him as good as dead, [so many] as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea-shore innumerable.
Henu kabhele kuhoma kwa munu ojhu mmonga ambajhe akaribileghe kufwa bhakahogoleka bhana bhabhabhalangiki lepi. Bhajhele bhamehele kama matondo gha nani na bhamehele kama mbeyu sya n'sanga mu ndema bhwa bahari.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of [them], and embraced [them], and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
Abho bhoha bhafuili mu imani bila kupokela hadi jhejhioha jhela. Isipokujha, bhakajha bhasibhwene ni kusihegelela kwa patali, bhajhedekili kujha bhajhele bhahesya ni bhap'eta njela panani pa nchi.
14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
Kwa bhala bhabhijobha mambo kama agha bhibheka bayana kujha bhilonda nchi jha bhene.
15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that [country] from whence they came, they might have had opportunity to return.
Bhukweli, kama ngabhajhele bhifikilila nchi ambajho bhahomili, ngabhajhele ni nafasi jha kukerebhuka.
16 But now they desire a better [country], that is, a heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he hath prepared for them a city.
Lakini kama kyajhijhele, bhinoghela nchi jhajhijhele kinofu, ambajho ndo jha kumbinguni. Henu K'yara ibhonalepi soni kukutibhwa K'yara ghwa bhene, kwa kujha bhatayarisi mji kwandabha jha bhene.
17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only-begotten [son],
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Ibrahimu baada jha kujaribibhwa, ambosili Isaka. Ndo muene ambajhe ajhijhopelili kwa kuhobhokela ahadi, ambosili mwana munu ghwa pekee,
18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
ambajhee panani pa muene jhajobhibhu, “Kuhoma kwa Isaka uzao bhwa bhebhe wibetakutibhwa.”
19 Accounting that God [was] able to raise [him] even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
Ibrahimu amanyili kujha K'yara ajhele ni bhuwesu bhwa kumfufula Isaka kuhoma kwa bhafu ni kulongela kwa lugha jha maumbo, an'njambelili.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
Jhajhele kwa imani ni kujha Isaka ambariki Yakobo ni Esau kuhusu mambo ghaghihida.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshiped, [leaning] upon the top of his staff.
Jhajhele kwa imani tu Yakobo bhoajhele mu hali jha kufwa, ambariki khila mmonga ghwa bhana bha Yusufu. Yakobo aabuduili, ajheghemili panani pa ndonga jha muene.
22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Yusufu bhwakati bhwa muene bhwa mwishu bhoakaribili, ajobhili juu jha kubhoka kwa bhana bha Israeli Misri ni kubhalaghisya kutola pamonga ni mifupa ghya muene.
23 By faith Moses when he was born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw [he was] a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.
Jjhajhele kwa imani kujha Musa, bho ahogoliki, afighibhu kwa miesi midatu ni bhazazi bha muene kwa ndabha bhambwene kujha ndo muana n'debe jha ajhele n'nofu, na bhatishiki lepi ni amri jha mfalme.
24 By faith Moses, when he had come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Musa paibeta kujha munu mzima, abelili kukutibhwa muana ghwa mwali Farao.
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
Badala jhiake, ahaguili kushiriki malombosi pamonga ni bhanu bha K'yara badala jha kuhobhokela anasa sya dhambi lukhombi.
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he had respect to the recompense of the reward.
Afikilileghe soni jha kun'kesya Kristu kujha ndo utajiri mbaha kuliko hazina sya Misri kwa ndabha akasisi mihu gha muene mu zawadi sya wakati bhwa muene bhwawihida.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Musa abhokili Misri. Atililepi ligoga lya mfalme, kwa kujha asindemela kwa kulanga kwa jhaabhonekeneghe lepi.
28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the first-born should touch them.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha ajhikamuili pasaka ni kunyunyizila damu, illi kwamba wiharibiajhi bhwa jhaahogoliki bhwa kubhuandu asibhuasi kubhakamula bhahogolanu bhakubhuandu bha kigosi bha Israeli.
29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry [land]: which the Egyptians essaying to do were drowned.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha bhibetakulobhoka mu bahari jha shamu kama pandema. Bho bhamisri bhikitanga kulobhoka, bhajhibhisibhu.
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encompassed seven days.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha lubhomba lwa Yeriko bhwabinili pasi, baada jha kubhusyongoka kwa magono saba.
31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, as she had received the spies with peace.
Jhajhele kwa imani kujha Rahabu kahaba jhola ajhangamililepi pamonga ni bhala ambabho bhajhelepi bhatiifu, kwandabha ajhele abhapokili bhapelelezi ni kubhabheka panofu.
32 And what shall I say more? for the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and [of] Barak, and [of] Samson, and [of] Jephthah, [of] David also, and Samuel, and [of] the prophets:
Na nijobhayi kiki nesu? Ndabha muda bhwitosya lepi kupanga gha Gideoni, Barak, Samsoni, Yeftha, Daudi, Samweli ni sya manabii,
33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
ambabho kup'et'ela imani bhasitobhisi falme, bhabhombi haki, na bhajhambelili ahadi. Bhafidendili misingi ghya simba,
34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
bhasimisi nghofu sya muoto, bhajhepili ncha jha bhupanga bhaponyesibhu kuhoma mu matamu, bhajhele mashujaa mu ngondo, na bhasababisi majeshi mahesya kukhambela.
35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
Bhadala bhajhambelili bhafu bhabhene kwa njela jha bhufufuo. Bhamana bhatesibhu, bila kujhendekela kulekibhwa huru ili kwamba bhabhwesiajhi kukabha bhuzoefu nesu.
36 And others had trial of [cruel] mockings and scourgings, and, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
Bhamana bhatesibhu kwa kujimulibhwa ni kutobhibhwa, naam, hata bhamana kufungibhwa ni kusopibhwa mu magereza.
37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheep-skins, and goat-skins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
Bhatumalibhu maganga. Bhadumulibhu fipandi kwa misumenu. Bhakhomibhu kwa bhupanga. Bhalotili kwa ngosi sya likondoo ni ngosi sya mene bhajhele bhahitaji, bhajhendelili mu maumifu ni kukhetibhwa mabhibhi
38 (Of whom the world was not worthy: ) they wandered in deserts, and [in] mountains, and [in] dens and caves of the earth.
(ambagho ulimwengu ulondekeghelepi kujha naghu), bhalolod'ek'eghe mu nyika, fidonda, mu mapango ni mumal'ende gha bhud'opi.
39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
Ingabhwa bhanu bhoha abha bhajhedekelibhu ni K'yara kwandabha jha imani jha bhene, bhajhamb'elili lepi kya bhaahidibhu.
40 God having provided some better [thing] for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
K'yara alongolili kutup'ela khenu kya kuj'hele bora, ili kwamba bila tete ngabhabhwesilepi kukamilisibhwa.
