Hebritɔwo 6
1 Eya ta mina míaɖe asi le gɔmedzenuwo fiafia tso Kristo ŋuti ŋu, eye míaɖe zɔ ayi ɖe tsitsi ɖe edzi me. Migana míagbugbɔ gɔmeɖokpe aɖo na dzimetɔtrɔ tso nu siwo kplɔa ame yia ku me alo míagbugbɔ gɔmeɖokpe aɖo na xɔse le Mawu me,
For this reason, having left the word of the beginning of the Christ, we may advance to perfection, not laying again a foundation of conversion from dead works, and of faith on God,
2 nufiafia tso mawutsideta ŋu, asidada ɖe ame dzi, ame kukuwo ƒe tsitretsitsi kple ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ mavɔ ŋuti o. (aiōnios g166)
of the teaching of immersions, also of laying on of hands, also of [the] resurrection of the dead, and of continuous judgment, (aiōnios g166)
3 Esia míawɔ ne Mawu lɔ̃.
and this we will do, if God may permit,
4 Ke ame siwo dze anyi la, aleke woawɔ agbugbɔ wo va dzimetɔtrɔ me? Wonye ame siwo nɔ Mawu ƒe kekeli me kpɔ. Woɖɔ dziƒo ƒe nunana kpɔ, eye wokpɔ gome hã le Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la me,
for [it is] impossible for those once enlightened, having also tasted of the heavenly gift, and having become partakers of the Holy Spirit,
and tasted the good saying of God, also the powers of the coming age, (aiōn g165)
6 Ke wode megbe! Be woagbugbɔ wo ava dzimetɔtrɔ mee la nye nu sesẽ, elabena to woƒe megbedede me, wogbugbɔ Mawu ƒe Vi la gale kaklãm ɖe ati ŋuti, eye wole ŋukpe domii le gaglãgbe.
and having fallen away, to renew [them] again to conversion, having crucified to themselves the Son of God again, and exposed to public shame.
7 Anyigba si noa tsi si dzana ɖe edzi zi geɖe, eye wòwɔa nuku nyuie na agbledela siwo ŋlɔa anyigba la xɔa yayra tso Mawu gbɔ.
For the earth, having drunk in the rain coming on it many times, and is bringing forth herbs fit for those because of whom it is also dressed, partakes of blessing from God,
8 Ke ne anyigba la mie ŋuwo kple aŋɔkawo la, meganyo na naneke o, eye ŋɔdzi li be ele fiƒode te. Mlɔeba la, woatɔ dzoe.
but that which is bearing thorns and briers [is] disapproved of, and near to cursing, whose end [is] for burning;
9 Nɔvi lɔlɔ̃awo, togbɔ be míele nu ƒom alea hã la, kakaɖedzi le mía si be nya siawo meku ɖe mia ŋu o. Ke boŋ miaƒe ɖeɖekpɔkpɔ le ku nyuiwo tsem le miaƒe agbe me.
but we are persuaded, concerning you, beloved, the things that are better, and accompanying salvation, though even thus we speak,
10 Mawu menye nuteƒemawɔla o, eya ta maŋlɔ dɔ nyui si míewɔ nɛ kple lɔlɔ̃ si míeɖe fiae be míekpe ɖe eƒe ame kɔkɔewo ŋu eye míegale nu siawo wɔm fifia la be gbeɖe o.
for God is not unrighteous to forget your work, and the labor of love that you showed to His Name, having ministered to the holy ones and ministering;
11 Enye míaƒe didi be mia dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nalé nu siawo wɔwɔ me ɖe asi va se ɖe nuwuwu kple ŋkubiã, ale be miaƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ nade blibo.
and we desire each one of you to show the same diligence, to the full assurance of the hope to the end,
12 Míedi be ame aɖeke nazu kuviatɔ o, ke boŋ ame sia ame nasrɔ̃ ame siwo to xɔse kple dzigbɔɖi me nyi nu si ŋugbe wodo na wo la ƒe dome ƒe kpɔɖeŋu.
that you may not become slothful, but followers of those who through faith and patient endurance are inheriting the promises.
13 Esi Mawu do ŋugbe na Abraham, eye ame aɖeke meli lolo wui wòayɔ aka atam o ta la, eta eya ŋutɔ ɖokui,
For God, having made promise to Abraham, seeing He was not able to swear by [any] greater, swore by Himself,
14 hegblɔ be, “Mayra wò godoo, eye mana dzidzimevi geɖewo wò.”
saying, “Blessing I will indeed bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you”;
15 Ale, esime Abraham gbɔ dzi ɖi blewuu la, ŋugbedodo sia va eme nɛ pɛpɛpɛ.
and so, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise;
16 Ne ame aɖe be yeaka atam la, eyɔa ame bubu si ƒe ŋkɔ kple ŋusẽ kɔ wu eya ŋutɔ tɔ la ka atam lae heɖoa kpe nya si wògblɔ la dzi, eye wòtsia nyaʋiʋli ɖe sia ɖe nu.
for men swear by the greater, and the oath [is] for confirmation of the end of all their controversy,
17 Esi wònye be Mawu di be yeana eme nakɔ nyuie na ŋugbedodo ƒe domenyilawo be nu si ƒe ŋugbe yedo matrɔ o ta la, eka atam tsɔ ɖo kpe eƒe ŋugbedodo la dzi.
in which God, more abundantly willing to show to the heirs of the promise the immutability of His counsel, interposed by an oath,
18 Mawu wɔ esia, ale be to nu eve siwo metrɔna o, esiwo me Mawu mate ŋu aka aʋatso le gbeɖe o la dzi, mí ame siwo si yi ɖaku ɖe mɔkpɔkpɔ si wona mí la ŋu la nakpɔ dzideƒo gã aɖe.
that through two immutable things, in which [it is] impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong comfort, having fled for refuge, to lay hold on the hope being set before [us],
19 Mɔkpɔkpɔ sia le mia si abe luʋɔ ƒe seke sesẽ si maʋã akpɔ o la ene. Etea ŋu gena ɖe kɔkɔeƒe le xɔmetsovɔ la godo,
which we have, as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and entering into that within the veil,
