Hebreo 6
1 Koa aoka hilaozantsika ny abidim-pianarana ny amin’ i Kristy, fa aoka handroso ho amin’ ny tanteraka isika ka tsy hanao fanorenana indray, dia fibebahana hahafahana amin’ ny asa maty sy finoana an’ Andriamanitra,
So let's not get stuck on the basic teachings about Christ, but let's progress to a more mature understanding. We don't need to go over again the ideas of repenting from what we used to do, about trusting in God—
2 ary fampianarana ny amin’ ny fisasana maro sy ny fametrahan-tanana, ary ny fitsanganan’ ny maty sy ny fitsarana mandrakizay. (aiōnios g166)
or teachings about baptism, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. (aiōnios g166)
3 Ary izany no hataontsika, raha avelan’ Andriamanitra.
So let's get on with it, as God gives us the opportunity!
4 Fa izay efa nohazavaina indray mandeha sady efa nanandrana ny fanomezana avy any an-danitra sy efa nandray ny Fanahy Masìna
It's impossible for those who once understood and experienced God's heavenly gift—who shared in receiving the Holy Spirit,
who had known God's good word and the power of the coming age— (aiōn g165)
6 nefa nihemotra, dia tsy azo havaozina indray ho amin’ ny fibebahana, satria manombo ny Zanak’ Andriamanitra indray amin’ ny hazo fijaliana ka manao Azy ho fahamenarana.
and then completely abandon God, for them to be brought back to repentance once more. They themselves have crucified the Son of God all over again and publicly humiliated him.
7 Fa izay tany mifoka ny ranonorana milatsaka aminy matetika ka maniry anana tsara ho an’ ny olona iasana azy dia mahazo fitahiana avy amin’ Andriamanitra;
Land that has been watered by rain, and produces crops for those who farm it, has God's blessing.
8 fa izay maniry tsilo sy songosongo kosa dia lavina sady akaikin’ ny ozona, ary ny hiafarany dia ny hodorana.
But land that only produces weeds and thorns is worthless, and is about to be condemned. In the end all that can be done is to burn it.
9 Nefa, ry malala, na dia miteny izany aza izahay, dia manantena zavatra tsara ny aminareo, dia izay momba ny famonjena.
But dear friends, we believe better of you and your salvation, even if we talk like this!
10 Fa Andriamanitra tsy mba tsy marina hanadino ny asanareo sy ny fitiavana izay nasehonareo ho voninahitry ny anarany, raha nanompo ny olona masìna ianareo sady mbola manompo ihany.
God wouldn't be so unjust as to forget what you've done and the love you've shown for him by the care you've shown for fellow-believers—something you're still doing.
11 Ary mbola irinay ianareo rehetra samy haneho izany fahazotoana izany mba hahazo ny fahatokiana be ny amin’ ny fanantenana hatramin’ ny farany;
We want each of you to show the same kind of commitment, confident in God's hope until it's fulfilled.
12 mba tsy hiketraka ianareo, fa hanahaka ireo mandova araka ny teny fikasana amin’ ny finoana sy ny faharetana.
Don't be spiritually lazy, but follow the example of those who through trusting in God and patience inherit what God has promised.
13 Fa Andriamanitra nanao teny fikasana tamin’ i Abrahama ary satria tsy nisy lehibe noho ny tenany izay azony nianianana, dia nianiana tamin’ ny tenany Izy
When God gave his promise to Abraham he could swear by no one greater so he took an oath on himself,
14 ka nanao hoe: “Hitahy anao tokoa Aho ary hahamaro dia hahamaro anao”.
saying, “I will definitely bless you, and multiply your descendants.”
15 Ary araka izany, rehefa naharitra tsara Abrahama, dia nahazo ny teny fikasana.
And so, after patiently waiting, Abraham received the promise.
16 Fa ny olona dia mianiana amin’ izay lehibe noho ny tenany; ary ny fianianana dia ataony mba hahamafy ny teny hampitsahatra ny fifandirana rehetra.
People swear on things that are greater than they are, and when they have some dispute the oath is taken as the final word on the matter.
17 Ary amin’ izany, raha Andriamanitra ta-haneho kokoa amin’ ny mpandova araka ny teny fikasana ny tsi-fiovan’ ny sitrapony, dia nataony mafy tamin’ ny fianianana izany,
That's why God wanted to demonstrate more clearly to those who would inherit the promise that he would never ever change his mind.
18 mba ho zavatra roa loha tsy mety miova, izay tsy hain’ Andriamanitra andaingana, no hahazoantsika famporisihana mafy, dia isika izay nandositra hihazona ny fanantenana napetraka eo anoloantsika,
So by these two actions that can't be changed, and since it's impossible for God to lie, we can have total confidence, having run for safety to take hold of the hope God presented to us.
19 izay ananantsika ho vatofantsiky ny aina sady mafy no tsy mihetsika ary miditra any anatin’ ny efitra lamba;
This hope is our spiritual anchor—it's both certain and reliable, and it takes us past the curtain to the presence of God.
