Ibirawe 6
1 Hessa gishshi koyrope kiristoosa gishshi immetida timirtteza aggidi ane gede mino timirtteko boosu. Hayqida oothope maarotethan gelo gishshine Xoossan ammano gishshi buro ane izan wodhdhi maadhokko.
Therefore leaving elementary instruction about the Christ, let us advance to mature manhood and not be continually re-laying a foundation of repentance from lifeless works and of faith in God,
2 Hessaththoka xinqqate gishshine kushe asa bolla wotho gishshi qasseka hayqidayata dentha gishshine medhina pirida gishshi buro wothi demoko. (aiōnios g166)
or of teaching about ceremonial washings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and the last judgement. (aiōnios g166)
3 Xoossa shene gidiko nu hessaththo oothana.
And advance we will, if God permits us to do so.
4 Be ammano kaddida asata istta maarotethan wositti zoranee? Po7oy isttas issi to po7idayta salo imotetha ekki be7idayta xiillo ayana ekki be7idayta;
For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once for all been enlightened, and have tasted the sweetness of the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit,
and have realized how good the word of God is and how mighty are the powers of the coming Age, and then fell away-- (aiōn g165)
6 Zaaridi kadidayti istta nam77antho zaaridi maarotethin ekoy danda7etena. Gaasoy istti ba mooros Xoossa na zaari kaqetesine kawushetes.
it is impossible, I say, to keep bringing them back to a new repentance, for, to their own undoing, they are repeatedly crucifying the Son of God afresh and exposing Him to open shame.
7 Wuriso wode ba bolla ira uyza biittay qesseka iza goyzadey ayfe immiza biittayaka Xoossa achchan anjjistadus.
For land which has drunk in the rain that often falls upon it, and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sakes, indeed, it is tilled, has a share in God's blessing.
8 Gido attin agunthune caca mokisiza biittay go7ay baydaro gidana. He biittays qangetethi matan dees. Izi wurisethi taman xuugeteth gidana.
But if it only yields a mass of thorns and briers, it is considered worthless, and is in danger of being cursed, and in the end will be destroyed by fire.
9 Ta ishato nuni hessaththo hassa7ikoka intes inte atotethara oyketida lo7o miishey dizayssa nu sidhoko.
But we, even while we speak in this tone, have a happier conviction concerning you, my dearly-loved friends--a conviction of things which point towards salvation.
10 Kase gidin woykko ha7i gidinka inte ammanizayta maadidayssane iza suntha gishshi inte bessida siiqotetha balanas Xoossi makal7ancha gidena.
For God is not unjust so that He is unmindful of your labour and of the love which you have manifested towards Himself in having rendered services to His people and in still rendering them.
11 Immetida ufayssay polistana gakanas intefe issi issi uray hessa mala ootho wuriseth gakanas genccidi oothana mala nu amotoos.
But we long for each of you to continue to manifest the same earnestness, with a view to your enjoying fulness of hope to the very End;
12 Ammanonine danda7an inte iza ufayssa qaala laatizayta milatanape attin dota7ata gidanayssa nu koyoko.
so that you may not become half-hearted, but be imitators of those who through faith and patient endurance are now heirs to the promises.
13 Xoossi Abirames ufayssi immida wode caaqishe hara izape adhiza uray baynda gishshi berika benan hizgiza caaqides. “Ta nena tumape anjjana; tan e zeres darisana.”
For when God gave the promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself,
saying, "Assuredly I will bless you and bless you, I will increase you and increase you."
15 Abirameyka gencci naagidape kaalidi izas immetida ufayssa demmides.
And so, as the result of patient waiting, our forefather obtained what God had promised.
16 Asay caaqo caaqishe beepe dhoqan caaqees. Caaqozika geetetidayssi poletena mala minthiza gishshi caaqidayta gidon palamay dendiko kase caaqo qaalay digees.
For men swear by what is greater than themselves; and with them an oath in confirmation of a statement always puts an end to a dispute.
17 Xoossi laametontta ba qofa ufayssa qaala laatanaytas qonccisana mala koyda gishshi caaqo qaalan minthides.
In the same way, since it was God's desire to display more convincingly to the heirs of the promise how unchangeable His purpose was,
18 Xoossi ay wodeka woridotena; danda7ena. Izi laametontta nam77u miishatan nu sinththan diza ufayssa oykanas izako shiiqida nuusu gita minoteth nu demmana mala oothides.
He added an oath, in order that, through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for Him to prove false, we may possess mighty encouragement--we who, for safety, have hastened to lay hold of the hope set before us.
19 Nuka shempo teqe gidida minone ammanithiza ufayss demmides. He ufayssayka magalashazape guye baggara gede Xoossa keeththa gido gelees.
That hope we have as an anchor of the soul--an anchor that can neither break nor drag. It passes in behind the veil,
