< Ahibirania 4 >

1 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, kuona atĩ kĩĩranĩro gĩa gũtoonya ũhurũko-inĩ wake kĩrĩ o ho-rĩ, nĩtwĩmenyererei gũtikagĩe o na ũmwe wanyu ũtagagĩkinyĩra.
Let us fear therefore lest the promise being left of entering into his rest, any of you should be thought to be wanting.
2 Nĩgũkorwo o na ithuĩ nĩtũhunjĩirio Ũhoro-ũyũ-Mwega o tao; no ũhoro ũrĩa maaiguire ndũigana kũmaguna, tondũ arĩa maũiguire matiawamũkĩrire na wĩtĩkio.
For unto us also it hath been declared, in like manner as unto them. But the word of hearing did not profit them, not being mixed with faith of those things they heard.
3 Na rĩrĩ, ithuĩ arĩa twĩtĩkĩtie nĩ ithuĩ tũtoonyaga kĩhurũko-inĩ kĩu, o ta ũrĩa Ngai oigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩĩhĩta na mwĩhĩtwa ndakarĩte, ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Matirĩ hĩndĩ magaatoonya kĩhurũko-inĩ gĩakwa.’” O na gũtuĩka wĩra wake nĩwathirĩte kuuma o rĩrĩa thĩ yombirwo.
For we, who have believed, shall enter into rest; as he said: As I have sworn in my wrath; If they shall enter into my rest; and this indeed when the works from the foundation of the world were finished.
4 Nĩgũkorwo nĩ harĩ handũ hana aarĩtie ũhoro wa mũthenya wa mũgwanja, akoiga atĩrĩ: “Nake Ngai akĩhurũka mũthenya wa mũgwanja, agĩtigana na wĩra wake wothe.”
For in a certain place he spoke of the seventh day thus: And God rested the seventh day from all his works.
5 O na ningĩ hau mbere nĩoigĩte atĩrĩ, “Matirĩ hĩndĩ magaatoonya ũhurũko-inĩ wakwa.”
And in this place again: If they shall enter into my rest.
6 Nĩtũkuona atĩ nĩ kũrĩ amwe matigaire gũtoonya kĩhurũko-inĩ kĩu kĩeranĩirwo, nĩgũkorwo arĩa maahunjĩirio Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega mbere matiatoonyire tondũ nĩmagire gwathĩka.
Seeing then it remaineth that some are to enter into it, and they, to whom it was first preached, did not enter because of unbelief:
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, o rĩngĩ Ngai akĩamũra mũthenya mũna, akĩwĩĩta Ũmũthĩ, thuutha wa matukũ maingĩ gũthira rĩrĩa aaririe na kanua ka Daudi, ta ũrĩa oigĩte hau mbere atĩrĩ: “Ũmũthĩ, mũngĩigua mũgambo wake, mũtikoomie ngoro cianyu.”
Again he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, Today, after so long a time, as it is above said: Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
8 Tondũ korwo Joshua nĩamaheete ũhurũko-rĩ, Ngai ndangĩacookire kwaria ũhoro wa mũthenya ũngĩ thuutha ũcio.
For if Jesus had given them rest, he would never have afterwards spoken of another day.
9 Tondũ ũcio nĩgũtigaire Thabatũ ya kũhurũka ya andũ a Ngai;
There remaineth therefore a day of rest for the people of God.
10 nĩgũkorwo mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũtoonyaga kĩhurũko-inĩ kĩa Ngai o nake nĩahurũkaga agatigana na wĩra wake, o ta ũrĩa Ngai aahurũkire agĩtigana na wĩra wake.
For he that is entered into his rest, the same also hath rested from his works, as God did from his.
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩtwĩrutanĩrie na kĩyo gũtoonya ũhurũko-inĩ ũcio, nĩgeetha gũtikanagĩe mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũkaagũa nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra kĩonereria kĩa ũremi wao.
Let us hasten therefore to enter into that rest; lest any man fall into the same example of unbelief.
12 Nĩgũkorwo ũhoro wa Ngai ũrĩ muoyo na ũrĩ hinya. Nĩ mũũgĩ gũkĩra rũhiũ rwa njora rũnooretwo mĩena yeerĩ, ũgatheeca ũkagayũkania muoyo na roho, o na ũkagayania marũngo na maguta marĩa makoragwo mahĩndĩ-inĩ, na ningĩ ũgatuĩra meciiria na matua ma ngoro.
For the word of God is living and effectual, and more piercing than any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the spirit, of the joints also and the marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13 Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩa iria ciombirwo kĩhithĩtwo kuuma maitho-inĩ ma Ngai. Indo ciothe nĩhumbũrie na ikaguũrio mbere ya maitho ma ũrĩa tũkaahe ũhoro witũ.
Neither is there any creature invisible in his sight: but all things are naked and open to his eyes, to whom our speech is.
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, kuona atĩ tũrĩ na mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũnene mũno ũrĩa ũhungurĩte agakinya o igũrũ, na nĩwe Jesũ mũrũ wa Ngai-rĩ, nĩtũrũmiei na hinya wĩtĩkio ũrĩa tuumbũraga.
Having therefore a great high priest that hath passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God: let us hold fast our confession.
15 Nĩgũkorwo tũtirĩ na mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũnene ũtangĩhota gũtũiguĩra tha ũhũthũ-inĩ witũ, no nĩ tũrĩ na ũmwe wanagerio ikĩro-inĩ ciothe o ta ithuĩ, no ndaigana kwĩhia.
For we have not a high priest, who can not have compassion on our infirmities: but one tempted in all things like as we are, without sin.
16 Hakĩrĩ ũguo-rĩ, nĩtũkuhĩrĩriei gĩtĩ kĩa Ũnene kĩrĩa kĩa Wega wake tũrĩ na ũũmĩrĩru, nĩgeetha tũkaiguĩrwo tha, na tuone Wega wake wa gũtũteithagia hĩndĩ ĩrĩa tũbatarĩte.
Let us go therefore with confidence to the throne of grace: that we may obtain mercy, and find grace in seasonable aid.
