Hivru 11

1 Hagi amentintima hu'zana, onke'nona zamofo tamage huno fore hugahie huta amuhama nehuna zane.

Now faith is being confident of what we hope for, convinced about things we do not see.

2 Korapa vahe'mo'za zamentinti hu'nazagu, Anumzamo'a fatgo vahere huno huzmantene.

For by this, the people of old were attested.

3 Tamentinti nehunku, Anumzamo'a ke'areti ama mopane, monanena trohune huta antahi amara nehune. Ana hu'negu menima tavuma negona zana, Anumzamo'a nonkona zanteti tro hu'ne. (Jen-Agf 4:3-10.) (aiōn g165)

By faith, we understand that the ages were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible. (aiōn g165)

4 Ebeli'a amentinti Anumzamofonte nehuno kre sramana vunte'neazamo, Keni'ma kre sramana vunte'neazana agaterene. Ebeli'a amentinti higeno Anumzamo'a fatgo nere huno huso'e huntene. Ebeli'a ko fri'neanagi amentinti hu'neazamo tagrira meninena hunerasamie. (Jen-Agf 5:21-24.)

By faith, Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he was attested as righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and though he died he still speaks through it.

5 Enoku'a amentinti higu Anumzamo'a avregeno ofrineno, monafinka marerige'za onke'naze. Na'ankure ofrino mani'nerera Anumzamofo avurera fatgo huno mani'negeno, Anumzamo muse hunteno avare'ne.

By faith, Enoch was taken away, so that he would not see death, "and he was not found, because God took him away." For before he was taken he was attested as having pleased God.

6 Amentintima omane'nesigeno'a, Anumzamofo avesizama avaririzamo'a amuho huntegahie. Na'ankure iza'o Anumzamofontema esimo'a, agra amentintima haniana, Anumzana mani'neankino, Agriku'ma hakaza vahera mizana nezamie huno antahino. (Jen-Agf 6:13-22.)

Now without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

7 Anumzamo'a Noana asamigeno amentinti ana kegura nehuno, amageanteno tima hagesifima naga'a zamagu vazisigura ventea tro hu'ne. Fore'ma osu'nea knaza fore hugahie huno Anumzamo'a asamine. Noama amentinti hu'neazamo, ama mopafi vahe'mofo kefo avu'avazazmia eriama nehigeno, Anumzamo'a fatgo nere huno huntene. (Jen-Agf 12:1-8.)

By faith, Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared a box-shaped ship for the salvation of his household, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

8 Abrahamu'ma henkama erisinti haresia kumate vinogu Anumzamo'ma huntegeno'a, inankna kumate vinogu huntene ontahi'neanagi, amentinti nehuno ke amageanteno vu'ne.

By faith, Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he was going.

9 Hagi Abrahamu'a Anumzamo'ma hunte'nea moparera amentinti nehuno zoka vahekna huno, seli no ome kino umanine. Ana higeno Asaki'ene Jekopukea anahukna huke Anumzamo'a huvempama hunte'nea zana erisintiharegaha'e hunte'nea netrene magoka ana seli nompina umani'naze.

By faith, he sojourned in a land of promise, as a foreigner, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.

10 Hakare zupa Abrahamu'a amentinti nehuno, henkama hanave ranku'ma Anumzamo retro hunteteno, Agra'a ki'nea ranku'ma erisigu aveganteno manine.

For he looked for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

11 Sera'enena tavavategeno avufgamo'a haviza hu'neanagi, amentinti nehuno Anumzamo'ma huvempa hu'nea kemo'a nena'a fore hugahie higu, mofavre kasentene. (Jen-Agf 17:19, 18:11-14, 21:2)

By faith, even barren Sarah herself received power to conceive when she was past age, and gave birth, since she considered him faithful who had promised.

12 Hagi magoke ne' Abrahamu'a ozafarenea nepinti, maka fore hu'naza vahe'mo'za, monafi hanafi kna nehu'za, hagerinkenafi kahepankna hu'za ohampriga'a vahe mani'naze.

Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.

13 Ama ana miko vahe'ma fri'nazana, huvempama huzmante'neazana e'orine'za fri'nazanagi, zamagra zmentinti nehu'za, afete'ma ne-eazama kenaza zankura muse nehu'za, ruregati zoka vahekna hu'za emani'naze.

These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were foreigners and temporary residents on the earth.

14 E'ina hukna kema nehaza vahe'mo'za, zamagrama umani so'ema hanaza kumaku nehakaze.

For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.

15 Zamagrama e'naza kumategama vunakuma antahintahima hazasina, ete e'naza kumatega vazasine.

If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.

16 Hianagi knarema hu'nea kumaku nehakazana mona kumare. E'ina hu'negu Anumzamo'a tamagri Anumza mani'noe huzankura, Agra agazea osugahie. Na'ankure Agra mago ranku'ma retro huzmantene.

Instead, they were longing for a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

17 Anumzamo'a Abrahamuna amentinti reheno kenaku, Aisakina ahenka kre sramana vunanto hu'ne. Huvempa kema huntenemo Abrahamu'a amentinti nehuno, magoke mofavrea Aisakina ahe fri'za hu'ne.

By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac; and he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only son;

18 Anumzamo'a Abrahamunku hu'neana, Aisakipinti fore hanaza vaheku, Abrahamu ageheze huno hugahaze huntene. (Jen-Agf 1:12)

even he to whom it was said, "In Isaac will your descendants be called;"

19 Abrahamuma agesama antahi'neana, Aisakima ahe frisugeno'a Anumzamo asimura ete amigahie huno agesa antahine. Hagi ana hu'negu nemofoma avreneazamo frizampinti avrenea avame'za huraveri hu'ne. (Jen-Agf 22:1-18.)

concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.

20 Aisaki'a amentinti hu'negu, Jekopu'ene Isokea henka'a erisa'a asomu kea huvempa huznantene. (Jen-Agf 27:27-29, 39-40)

By faith, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.

21 Jekopu'a amentinti hu'negu, fri'zama nehuno'a Josefena tare mofavreararena asomura hu'nezanenteno kepri huno azompare otineno, monora Anumzamofona huntene. (Jen-Agf 48)

By faith, Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and bowed over the top of his staff.

22 Josefe'a amentinti hu'negu, frinaku'ma nehuno'a, hanavetino Israeli vahekura, Isipima atreta vanutma zaferinani'a ramina erineta viho huno huzmantene. (Jen-Agf 50:24-25.)

By faith, Joseph, when his end was near, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel; and gave instructions concerning his bones.

23 Hagi Mosese nererake nefakea zanamentinti hu'naku, Mosesema kasentegeno'a 3'a ikamofo agu'afina azeri frakintakeno znagranena mani'ne. Na'ankure zanagra ka'ana ana mofavremo'a hentofa mofavre maninegeke, kini nemofo kasegema rutagre zankura korera osu'na'e. (Eks-Ati 1:22, 2:1-15)

By faith, Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.

24 Mosese'a amentinti hu'negu, zomareno rama nehuno'a Fero mofamofo mofavre hu'za agrikuma huzankura avesra hu'ne.

By faith, Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

25 Anumzamofo vahe'ma zamazeri havizama hazaza hu'za azeri haviza huzanku agesa nentahino, atupa knafi kumimofo kefo avu'avazampi muse huzankura avesra hu'ne.

choosing rather to share ill treatment with God's people, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time;

26 Agra Isipi kumamofo feno erizankura nontahino, Kraisintekuma natama erisuana knare hugahie huno agesa antahine. Na'ankure Anumzamo'ma henkama ra mizama amizanku anara hu'ne.

considering the abuse suffered for the Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.

27 Mosese'a amentinti hu'negu kini ne'mo'ma arimpa ahentezankura koro osu Isipi mopa atreno vu'ne. Na'ankure agra onkenemofonte avuraga kenteno kazigazi huno vu'ne.

By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.

28 Mosese'a amentinti hu'negu, Israeli vahera zamasimge'za sipisipi ahe'za korana nonkafa zamirera frenazageno, Anumzamofo ankeromo'a ozamahe zmagaterene. (Eks-Ati 12:21-30.)

By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.

29 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za Anumzamofonte zmentinti hu'nazagu, hagege moparema hiaza hu'za hagerina takahe'naze. Hianagi Isipi vahe'mo'za anama hazaza hu'za takahenaku hu'nazanagi, ti nakri'naze. (Eks-Ati 14:21-31.)

By faith, they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.

30 Israeli vahe'mo'za Anumzamofonte zametinti hu'nazagu, 7ni'a knafina Jeriko kumara kagizageno, vihu keginamo'a fragu vaziramine. (Jos 6:12-21.)

By faith, the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been encircled for seven days.

31 Rehapu monko a'mo'agi Anumzamofonte amentinti nehuno, tare afure vahetrena znaza huno zanazeri frakinegu, kuma ane vahe'amo'za keontahiza vahe'ma zamahe frifina agrira ahe ofri'ne. (Jos 2:1-21, 6:22-25.)

32 Hagi na'ane hu'na mago'anena hugahue? Gidionima, Barakima, Samsonima, Jeptama, Devitima, Samueliki, kasanampa vahe'mokizmi zamagenkema tamasamisua knani'a nagrira omne'nene.

And what more should I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets;

33 E'i ana zamentintima haza vahe'mo'za ru kumate vahe'ma ha'ma huzmantazana zmagatenere'za, fatgo zamavuzmava hazagu huvempama hu'nea zana enerizageno, laionimofo zmagira ruhamunki'naze.

who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

34 Zamagra tusi'a tevema nereantevea resu nehazageno, kazintetira zamahe friga osu'naze. Zamagrira hanavezmi omaneneanagi hanave vahe nese'za, hapina hanavetiza ha' vahe zamia zamarotago hu'naze.

quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, grew mighty in war, and caused foreign armies to flee.

35 A'nemo'za zamavesi nentaza vahe'ma fri'nea vahera azeri otige'za nezmavrazageno, mago'amokizmia kanona zamizanagi, Anumzamofona otre kazigazi hu'za amage'anteza nevu'za, zamagra fripinti oti'za knare zmasimuma erisaza zanku antahintahi hu'naze.

Women received their dead by resurrection. And others were tortured, not accepting the payment for release, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

36 Mago'amokizmia kiza zokago ke hu'nezamante'za sefu kanonkeve zamiza zamavufaga zamahe tragatrogo nehu'za, mago'amokizmi'a seni nofiteti kina rezmante'za zamavare'za kina hu'nezmantaze.

Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.

37 Mago'amokizmia have knonu zamahe nefrizageno, mago'a mokizmia sonteti refragi tare nehazageno, mago'amokizmi kaziknonu zamahe fri'naze. Hanki mago'amo'za sipisipine meme akrute kukena nehu'za, zamagara netegeno, zamazeri haviza hu'naze.

They were stoned, they were sawed apart, they were put to the test, they were killed with the sword. They went around in sheepskins and in goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, mistreated

38 Ama mopafi vahe'mo'za knarera huozamantege'za, ka'ma kokampine, agonafine, havegampima, kerigampina masetere hu'za vano hu'naze.

(of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.

39 E'i ana maka vahe'mo'za zmentinti hazagu, Anumzamo'a hugnare huzmantene. Hu'neanagi Anumzamo'ma huvempa huzamante'nea zana e'orine'za fri'naze.

These all, having had testimony given to them through their faith, did not receive the promise,

40 Ama anazantamina Anumzamo'a knarezantami retro hurantegeno me'neankino, zamagrama koma erizankura Anumzamo'a avenosianki, tagranema magoka omerisunegu retro hurantene.

God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
