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,
Wherefore, having left the word of the beginning of the Christ, unto the perfection we may advance, not again a foundation laying of reformation 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 baptisms, of laying on also of hands, of rising again also of the dead, and of judgment age-during, (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 tasted also of the heavenly gift, and partakers having became of the Holy Spirit,
and did taste the good saying of God, the powers also 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, again to renew [them] to reformation, having crucified again to themselves the Son of God, 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 earth, that is drinking in the rain many times coming upon it, and is bringing forth herbs fit for those because of whom also it is dressed, doth partake 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.
and that which is bearing thorns and briers [is] disapproved of, and nigh 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.
and 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 labour of the love, that ye shewed to His name, having ministered to the saints 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 the same diligence to shew, unto the full assurance of the hope unto 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 ye 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 to Abraham God, having made promise, seeing He was able to swear by no greater, did swear by Himself,
14 hegblɔ be, “Mayra wò godoo, eye mana dzidzimevi geɖewo wò.”
saying, 'Blessing indeed I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee;'
15 Ale, esime Abraham gbɔ dzi ɖi blewuu la, ŋugbedodo sia va eme nɛ pɛpɛpɛ.
and so, having patiently endured, he did obtain 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 indeed do swear by the greater, and an end of all controversy to them for confirmation [is] the oath,
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 shew to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, did interpose 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, a strong comfort we may have who did flee for refuge to lay hold on the hope 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 stedfast, and entering into that within the vail,
