< Hebrews 4 >

1 We may fear, then, lest a promise being left of entering into His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short,
Pakuŵa Akunnungu atupele chilanga cha kupochela chipumulilo, nipele tulilolechesye kuti jwalijose mwa ŵanyamwe akalepela kuchipata chipumulilo cho.
2 for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,
Pakuŵa nowe ŵakwe twalalichilwe Ngani Jambone kwa litala lilalila mpela iyatite pakulalichilwa kwa ŵanyawo. Nambo utenga wo nganiwakamuchisya chachili chose pakuŵa aŵala ŵaŵapilikene nganaupochela mu chikulupi.
3 for we do enter into the rest — we who did believe, as He said, 'So I sware in My anger, If they shall enter into My rest —;' and yet the works were done from the foundation of the world,
Nambo uweji ŵatukulupilile tutujinjile mu chipumulilo cho mpela iŵatite kusala, “Natumbile ni nalumbile kuti ‘Ngaajinjila peuto pakupumulila pangu,’” Akunnungu ŵatite yeleyo namuno masengo go gamasile chitandile paŵagumbile chilambo.
4 for He spake in a certain place concerning the seventh [day] thus: 'And God did rest in the seventh day from all His works;'
Pakuŵa, mu liuto line Mmalembo Gamaswela gakuti, “Akunnungu ŵalesile kupanganya masengo gao gose pa lyuŵa lya saba, ŵapumulile”
5 and in this [place] again, 'If they shall enter into My rest —;'
Ni mu ngani jo liuto lyo likusala, “Ngaajinjila ng'o mu chilambo chachinjapa kuti apumulile.”
6 since then, it remaineth for certain to enter into it, and those who did first hear good news entered not in because of unbelief —
Ŵandu ŵaŵalalichilwe Ngani Jambone kundanda nganapochela chipumulilo ligongo nganaajitichisya. Namuno chilanga cho chipali chiŵela kwa ŵane kupochela.
7 again He doth limit a certain day, 'To-day,' (in David saying, after so long a time, ) as it hath been said, 'To-day, if His voice ye may hear, ye may not harden your hearts,'
Kwa ligongo lyo, Akunnungu aŵisile sooni lyuŵa lyalikuŵilanjikwa “Lelo.” Yaka yejinji yapite nombewo ŵasasile kwa litala li che Daudi nti Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti kusala, “Lelo mwapilikanaga Akunnungu ali nkuŵecheta kasinjilimbisya mitima jenu.”
8 for if Joshua had given them rest, He would not concerning another day have spoken after these things;
Pakuŵa ikaliji che Yoshua ŵapele ŵandu liuto lya kupumulila, Akunnungu ngaakaŵechete sooni nkati yeleyo lyuŵa line.
9 there doth remain, then, a sabbatic rest to the people of God,
Kwayele, kupali kupumulila kwa ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu mpela iŵatite pakupumulila Akunnungu pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
10 for he who did enter into his rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.
Pakuŵa ŵandu wose ŵakwinjila peuto pakupumulila paakupakunguluchila Akunnungu, chaleche masengo gao ni kupumulila mpela Akunnungu iŵatite pakuleka masengo gao ni kupumulila.
11 May we be diligent, then, to enter into that rest, that no one in the same example of the unbelief may fall,
Nipele, tulimbichile kuchipochela chipumulilo cho, kuti akapagwa mundu mwa ŵanyamwe juchakose kwinjila mpela ila aŵala ŵaŵakanile kwitichisya.
12 for the reckoning of God is living, and working, and sharp above every two-edged sword, and piercing unto the dividing asunder both of soul and spirit, of joints also and marrow, and a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart;
Pakuŵa Liloŵe lya Akunnungu lili lyejumi ni likwete machili. Likutema kupunda lipanga lyalikutema kuŵili. Sooni likupeleta mpaka munkati mwaukusimana ntima ni mbumu, iyoyo likutema ni kupeleta mpaka papakulumbikana iŵalo ni wongo wa mmaupa. Nombelyo likukombola kulamula kwa chitema maganisyo ni miningwa ja mitima ja ŵandu.
13 and there is not a created thing not manifest before Him, but all things [are] naked and open to His eyes — with whom is our reckoning.
Ngapagwa chindu chachikusisikwa paujo pa Akunnungu nambo indu yose ili yeunukukwe paujo pao, ŵelewo ni ŵakulamula indu yose itutesile.
14 Having, then, a great chief priest passed through the heavens — Jesus the Son of God — may we hold fast the profession,
Nipele, pakuŵa tukwete Jwambopesi Jwankulu jwakwinjila kwinani kwa Akunnungu, yaani Che Yesu Mwana jwa Akunnungu, tukamulisye kwannope chikulupi chitukuchisala.
15 for we have not a chief priest unable to sympathise with our infirmities, but [one] tempted in all things in like manner — apart from sin;
Jwambopesi Jwankulu ni jwakutukolela chanasa kwa kulepetala kwetu. Ŵelewo ŵalinjikwe mose yalumo ni uweji nambo nganatenda sambi.
16 we may come near, then, with freedom, to the throne of the grace, that we may receive kindness, and find grace — for seasonable help.
Kwa ligongo lyo, tuchiŵandichile pangali woga chitengu cha ulamusi cha Akunnungu papali ni umbone, kuti tupochele chanasa ni umbone wakwe wa kutukamuchisya pa katema ka kulaga.
