Ahibirania 3
1 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, inyuĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ atheru, o inyuĩ mũgwatanĩire ũhoro wa gwĩtwo kũrĩa kuumĩte na igũrũ, mwĩcũranagiei ũhoro wa Jesũ, o we mũtũmwo na mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene ũrĩa tuumbũraga ũhoro wake.
Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Emissary and High Priest of our confession: Yeshua,
2 We aarĩ mwĩhokeku kũrĩ ũrĩa wamwamũrire, o ta ũrĩa Musa aarĩ mwĩhokeku maũndũ-inĩ mothe ma nyũmba ya Ngai.
who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also Moses was in all his house.
3 Jesũ nĩonekanĩte aagĩrĩire kũheo gĩtĩĩo kĩnene gũkĩra Musa, o ta ũrĩa mwaki wa nyũmba aagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũtĩĩo gũkĩra nyũmba yo nyene.
For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who built the house has more honour than the house.
4 Nĩgũkorwo nyũmba o yothe nĩĩrĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wamĩakire, no Ngai nĩwe mwaki wa indo ciothe.
For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
5 Nake Musa, aarĩ mwĩhokeku maũndũ-inĩ mothe ma nyũmba ya Ngai arĩ o ndungata, agakĩrutaga ũira wa maũndũ marĩa makaaheanwo thuutha-inĩ.
Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,
6 No Kristũ arĩ Mũriũ aarĩ mwĩhokeku na akarũgamĩrĩra nyũmba ya Ngai. Na ithuĩ tũrĩ nyũmba ĩyo yake, tũngĩikara tũrũmĩtie ũmĩrĩru witũ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩrĩa twĩrahagĩra.
but Messiah is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.
7 Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, o ta ũrĩa Roho Mũtheru oigaga, atĩrĩ: “Ũmũthĩ, mũngĩigua mũgambo wake,
Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, “Today if you will hear his voice,
8 mũtikoomie ngoro cianyu ta hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mwanemeire, andũ makĩĩngeria marĩ kũu werũ-inĩ,
don’t harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
9 kũrĩa maithe manyu maangeririe na makĩndoria, na makĩona ciĩko ciakwa, ihinda rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna.
where your fathers tested me and tried me, and saw my deeds for forty years.
10 Nĩkĩo ndaarakarĩire rũciaro rũu, ngĩkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ngoro cia andũ aya itururaga hĩndĩ ciothe, na matirĩ maamenya njĩra ciakwa.’
Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, but they didn’t know my ways.’
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩĩhĩta na mwĩhĩtwa ndakarĩte, ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Matirĩ hĩndĩ magaatoonya kĩhurũko-inĩ gĩakwa.’”
As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter into my rest.’”
12 Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, mwĩmenyererei hatikagĩe o na ũmwe wanyu ũrĩ na ngoro ĩĩhagia na ĩtetĩkagia, ĩrĩa ĩgarũrũkaga, ĩgatigana na Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo.
Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;
13 No ũmanagĩrĩriai mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ o mũthenya, o rĩrĩa rĩothe mũthenya ũrĩĩtagwo Ũmũthĩ, nĩgeetha gũtikagĩe o na ũmwe wanyu ũkũũmio ngoro nĩ ũndũ wa kũheenererio nĩ mehia.
but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called “today”, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
14 Tondũ ũcio, tũngĩrũmia wega mwĩhoko ũrĩa twarĩ naguo kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria nginya ithirĩro-rĩ, nĩtũgaatuĩka a kũgwatanĩra hamwe na Kristũ.
For we have become partakers of Messiah, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,
15 O ta ũrĩa kwĩrĩtwo, atĩrĩ: “Ũmũthĩ, mũngĩigua mũgambo wake, mũtikoomie ngoro cianyu ta hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mwanemeire.”
while it is said, “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”
16 Nĩ andũ arĩkũ acio maaiguire na makĩmũkararia? Githĩ ti arĩa othe moimĩte Misiri matongoretio nĩ Musa?
For who, when they heard, rebelled? Wasn’t it all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?
17 Ningĩ-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩkũ aarakarĩire mĩaka ĩyo mĩrongo ĩna? Githĩ ti arĩa meehirie, na magĩkua, o arĩa ciimba ciao ciagũire kũu werũ-inĩ?
With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
18 Ningĩ-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩkũ Ngai ehĩtire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ gũtirĩ hĩndĩ magaatoonya ũhurũko-inĩ wake, tiga o andũ acio maaregire kũmwathĩkĩra?
To whom did he swear that they wouldn’t enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
19 Tũgakĩona atĩrĩ, matiahotire gũtoonya kuo nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga gwĩtĩkia kwao.
We see that they weren’t able to enter in because of unbelief.
