Hivru 11
1 Hagi amentintima hu'zana, onke'nona zamofo tamage huno fore hugahie huta amuhama nehuna zane.
Now faith is a well-grounded assurance of that for which we hope, and a conviction of the reality of things which we do not see.
2 Korapa vahe'mo'za zamentinti hu'nazagu, Anumzamo'a fatgo vahere huno huzmantene.
For by it the saints of old won God's approval.
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)
Through faith we understand that the worlds came into being, and still exist, at the command of God, so that what is seen does not owe its existence to that which is 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.)
Through faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain did, and through this faith he obtained testimony that he was righteous, God giving the testimony by accepting his gifts; and through it, though he is dead, he still speaks.
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.
Through faith Enoch was taken from the earth so that he did not see death, and he could not be found, because God had taken him; for before he was taken we have evidence that he truly 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.)
But where there is no faith it is impossible truly to please Him; for the man who draws near to God must believe that there is a God and that He proves Himself a rewarder of those who earnestly try to find 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.)
Through faith Noah, being divinely taught about things as yet unseen, reverently gave heed and built an ark for the safety of his family, and by this act he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which depends on 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.
Through faith Abraham, upon being called to leave home and go into a land which he was soon to receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing where he was going to.
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.
Through faith he came and made his home for a time in a land which had been promised to him, as if in a foreign country, living in tents together with Isaac and Jacob, sharers with him in 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 continually looked forward to the city which has the 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)
Through faith even Sarah herself received strength to become a mother--although she was past the time of life for this--because she judged Him faithful who had given the promise.
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.
And thus there sprang from one man, and him practically dead, a nation like the stars of the sky in number, and like the sands on the sea shore which cannot be counted.
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.
All these died in the possession of faith. They had not received the promised blessings, but had seen them from a distance and had greeted them, and had acknowledged themselves to be foreigners and strangers here on earth;
14 E'ina hukna kema nehaza vahe'mo'za, zamagrama umani so'ema hanaza kumaku nehakaze.
for men who acknowledge this make it manifest that they are seeking elsewhere a country of their own.
15 Zamagrama e'naza kumategama vunakuma antahintahima hazasina, ete e'naza kumatega vazasine.
And if they had cherished the remembrance of the country they had left, they would have found an opportunity 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.
but, as it is, we see them eager for a better land, that is to say, a heavenly one. For this reason God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has now 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.
Through faith Abraham, as soon as God put him to the test, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had joyfully welcomed the promises was on the point of sacrificing his only son
18 Anumzamo'a Abrahamunku hu'neana, Aisakipinti fore hanaza vaheku, Abrahamu ageheze huno hugahaze huntene. (Jen-Agf 1:12)
with regard to whom he had been told, "It is through Isaac that your posterity shall be traced."
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.)
For he reckoned that God is even able to raise a man up from among the dead, and, figuratively speaking, it was from among the dead that he received Isaac again.
20 Aisaki'a amentinti hu'negu, Jekopu'ene Isokea henka'a erisa'a asomu kea huvempa huznantene. (Jen-Agf 27:27-29, 39-40)
Through faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even in connexion with things soon 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)
Through faith Jacob, when dying, blessed each of Joseph's sons, and, leaning on the top of his staff, worshipped God.
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.)
Through faith Joseph, when he was near his end, made mention of the departure of the descendants of Israel, and gave orders about his own body.
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)
Through faith the child Moses was hid for three months by his parents, because they saw his rare beauty; and the king's edict had no terror for them.
24 Mosese'a amentinti hu'negu, zomareno rama nehuno'a Fero mofamofo mofavre hu'za agrikuma huzankura avesra hu'ne.
Through faith Moses, when he grew to manhood, refused to be known as Pharaoh's daughter's son,
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.
having determined to endure ill-treatment along with the people of God rather than enjoy the short-lived pleasures of sin;
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.
because he deemed the reproaches which he might meet with in the service of the Christ to be greater riches than all the treasures of Egypt; for he fixed his gaze on the coming 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.
Through faith he left Egypt, not being frightened by the king's anger; for he held on his course as seeing the unseen One.
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.)
Through faith he instituted the Passover, and the sprinkling with blood so that the destroyer of the firstborn might not touch the Israelites.
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.)
Through faith they passed through the Red Sea as though they were passing over dry land, but the Egyptians, when they tried to do the same, 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.)
Through faith the walls of Jericho fell to the ground after being surrounded 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.)
Through faith the notorious sinner Rahab did not perish along with the disobedient, for she had welcomed the spies and had sheltered them.
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 why need I say more? For time will fail me if I tell the story of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, and of David and 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.
men who, as the result of faith, conquered whole kingdoms, brought about true justice, obtained promises from God, stopped lions' mouths,
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.
deprived fire of its power, escaped being killed by the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became mighty in war, put to flight foreign armies.
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 back their dear ones alive from the dead; and others were put to death with torture, refusing the deliverance offered to them--that they might secure 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 again were tested by cruel mockery and by scourging; yes, and by chains 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 sawn asunder, they were tried by temptation, they were killed with the sword. They went from place to place in sheepskins or goatskins, enduring want, oppression and cruelty.
38 Ama mopafi vahe'mo'za knarera huozamantege'za, ka'ma kokampine, agonafine, havegampima, kerigampina masetere hu'za vano hu'naze.
(They were men of whom the world was not worthy.) They wandered across deserts and mountains, or hid themselves in caves and in holes in the ground.
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.
And although by their faith all these people won God's approval, none of them received the fulfilment of His great promise;
40 Ama anazantamina Anumzamo'a knarezantami retro hurantegeno me'neankino, zamagrama koma erizankura Anumzamo'a avenosianki, tagranema magoka omerisunegu retro hurantene.
for God had provided for them and us something better, so that apart from us they were not to attain to full blessedness.
