Hebritɔwo 13
1 Minɔ mia nɔewo lɔlɔ̃ dzi ɖaa abe dadaviwo ene
LET brotherly love continue.
2 Migaŋlɔ amedzrowɔwɔ be o; to esia wɔwɔ me la, ame aɖewo xɔ mawudɔlawo le manyamanya me.
Forget not to exercise hospitality: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
3 Miɖo ŋku ame siwo wode gaxɔ me la dzi abe miawo hãe le gaxɔ me kpli wo ene. Nenema ke miɖo ŋku ame siwo wole fu wɔmii la dzi abe miawo hãe le fua kpem ene.
Remember those who are in chains, as in chains with them; and those who are suffering afflictions, as being yourselves also in the body.
4 Ame sia ame nade bubu srɔ̃ɖeɖe ŋu eye womaƒo ɖi srɔ̃ɖeba o, elabena Mawu abu fɔ ahasiwɔlawo kple matrewɔlawo katã.
Marriage is honourable for all persons, and the marriage bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
5 Mite mia ɖokuiwo ɖa xaa tso galɔlɔ̃ gbɔ, eye nu si le mia si la nedze mia ŋu, elabena Mawu gblɔ be, “Nyemaɖe asi le mia ŋu akpɔ o, eye nyemagblẽ mi ɖi akpɔ gbeɖe o.”
Let the tenor of your life be divested of the love of money; content with your present possessions: for he hath said, “I will in no wise leave thee, neither will I in any case forsake thee.”
6 Esia ta míegblɔ kple dzideƒo be, “Yehowae nye nye xɔnametɔ, nyemavɔ̃ o. Nu ka amegbetɔ ate ŋu awɔm?”
So that we may with confidence say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
7 Miɖo ŋku miaƒe kplɔlawo dzi, ame siwo gblɔa Mawu ƒe nya na mi. Mibu nu siwo do go tso woƒe agbenɔnɔ me la ŋuti ne miasrɔ̃ woƒe xɔse.
Remember your presidents, who have spoken to you the word of God: the ultimate issue of whose conduct attentively observing, be imitators of their fidelity.
8 Yesu Kristo metrɔna gbeɖe o, ale si wònɔ etsɔ si va yi, nenema kee wòle egbe, eye nenema kee wòanɔ ɖaa. (aiōn g165)
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, to-day, and for ever. (aiōn g165)
9 Migana nufiafia trama aɖeke nakplɔ miaƒe susuwo adzoe o. Enyo be woatsɔ amenuveve ado ŋusẽ miaƒe dziwo, ke menye to nuɖuɖu tɔxɛ aɖewo ƒe sewo dzi wɔwɔ me o, esiwo mehea viɖe aɖeke vanɛ na ame siwo ɖunɛ la o.
Be not tossed about by various and strange doctrines: for it is good to have the heart firmly established by grace, not by meats, in which observances they who have walked have found no manner of advantage.
10 Vɔsamlekpui aɖe le mia si; nunɔla siwo subɔna le Agbadɔ me gɔ̃ hã mekpɔ mɔ aɖu nu si tso vɔsamlekpui sia dzi o.
We have an altar, of which they have no right to eat, who perform the service in the tabernacle.
11 Nunɔlagã la tsɔa lãwo ƒe ʋu yina ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la abe nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa ene, gake wotɔa dzo lãwo ŋutɔ le asaɖa la godo.
For the bodies of those beasts are burnt without the camp, whose blood for a sin offering is brought into the holy of holies by the high-priest.
12 Esia tae Yesu hã kpe fu le du la ƒe agbo godo be wòakɔ eƒe amewo ŋu, awɔ wo kɔkɔe to eya ŋutɔ ƒe ʋu la me.
Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
13 Eya ta mina míayi egbɔ azɔ le asaɖa la godo be míawo hã míaɖu ŋukpe si wòtsɔ,
Therefore let us go forth to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
14 elabena du si nɔa anyi ɖaa la, mele mía si le afii o, ke míele mɔ kpɔm na du si lava va.
For we have not here an abiding city, but we earnestly seek that which is to come.
15 Eya ta mina míatsɔ kafukafuvɔsa na Mawu ɣe sia ɣi to Yesu dzi, kafukafu siwo nye kutsetse tso nuyi siwo ʋua Yesu ƒe ŋkɔ me la me.
By him therefore let us offer a sacrifice of praise perpetually to God, that is the fruit of our lips confessing his name.
16 Migaŋlɔ nyuiwɔwɔ be o, eye miama nu kple mia nɔewo, elabena vɔsa siawo tɔgbie dzea Mawu ŋu.
But of beneficence, and liberal distribution, be not unmindful: for such sacrifices God accepts with delight.
17 Miɖo to miaƒe kplɔlawo, eye miwɔ ɖe nu siwo wogblɔ na mi la dzi, elabena wole mia ta kpɔm abe ame siwo wòle be woana akɔnta Mawu tso woƒe dɔwɔna ŋu ene. Miɖo to wo, ale be woƒe dɔwɔwɔ nanye dzidzɔ na wo, eye mazu agba na wo o; elabena ne ele alea la, manye kpekpeɖeŋu aɖeke na miawo hã o.
Obey your presidents, and be subject to them: for they are vigilant for your souls, as being to render an account, that they may do it with joy, and not groaning: for that would be disadvantageous for you.
18 Mido gbe ɖa ɖe mía ta ɣe sia ɣi. Míeka ɖe edzi be dzitsinya nyui le mía si, eye míedina be míanɔ agbe bubutɔe ɣe sia ɣi le nu sia nu me.
Pray for us: for we have confidence that we maintain a good conscience, in all things desirous to conduct ourselves with propriety.―
19 Medi vevie be maƒoe ɖe mia nu tɔxɛe be miado gbe ɖa be woaɖe asi le ŋutinye na mi kpuie.
But I entreat you the rather to do this, that I may the more speedily be restored to you.
20 Ŋutifafa ƒe Mawu la ame si to nubabla mavɔ ƒe ʋu la me kplɔ míaƒe Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo Alẽkplɔlagã la do goe tso ame kukuwo dome la (aiōnios g166)
Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great pastor of the sheep, by the blood of the everlasting testament, (aiōnios g166)
21 natsɔ nu nyui sia nu nyui akpe ɖe mia ŋuti le eƒe lɔlɔ̃nuwɔwɔ ta, eye wòawɔ nu si dze eŋu la le mía me to Yesu Kristo dzi, ame si ko tɔ anye ŋutikɔkɔe tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me. Amen. (aiōn g165)
make you fit for every good work to do his will, producing in you that which is acceptable in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory unto the everlasting ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
22 Nɔvi lɔlɔ̃awo, mele eƒom ɖe mia nu be mialé to ɖe nye dzideƒonamenyawo ŋu, elabena agbalẽ kpui aɖe koe wònye meŋlɔ na mi.
But I entreat you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation; for I have written to you in few words.
23 Medi be mana mianya be woɖe asi le mía nɔvi Timoteo ŋu. Ne eva ɖo afi sia kaba la, nye kplii míava kpɔ mi ɖa.
Know that our brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.
24 Mido gbe na miaƒe kplɔlawo katã kple Mawu ƒe ameawo katã. Nɔvi siwo tso Italia hã do gbe na mi.
Salute all your presiding ministers, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.
25 Amenuveve nanɔ anyi kple mi katã.
Grace be with you all.―Amen. Written to the Hebrews from Italy by Timothy.
