Hebrifoɔ 3

1 Me nuanom wɔ Kristo mu a Onyankopɔn afrɛ mo, monnwene Yesu a Onyankopɔn somaa no maa ɔbɛyɛɛ Ɔsɔfopanin wɔ gyidie a yɛka ho asɛm no ho.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation, consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:

2 Na ɔdii Onyankopɔn a ɔyii no sɛ ɔnyɛ saa adwuma yi no nokorɛ sɛdeɛ Mose nso dii nokorɛ wɔ Onyankopɔn fie no.

Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.

3 Onipa a ɔsi efie nya animuonyam sene efie no ankasa.

For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house, hath greater honour than the house.

4 Saa ara na ɛteɛ; ɛsɛ sɛ Yesu nya animuonyam sene Mose. Efie biara, obi na ɔsiiɛ. Na Onyankopɔn nso na wabɔ nneɛma nyinaa.

For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things, is God.

5 Mose dii Onyankopɔn nokorɛ sɛ ɔsomfoɔ wɔ ne fie na ɔkaa nsɛm a Onyankopɔn bɛka daakye no nyinaa.

And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:

6 Nanso Kristo deɛ, ɔdi nokorɛ sɛ Ɔba a ɔhwɛ Onyankopɔn fie so. Sɛ yɛma yɛn bo yɛ duru na yɛwɔ gyidie wɔ yɛn anidasoɔ mu a, na yɛyɛ ne fiefoɔ.

But Christ as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.

7 Enti Honhom Kronkron no ka sɛ, “Sɛ ɛnnɛ mote Onyankopɔn nne a,

Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: Today if you shall hear his voice,

8 monnyɛ asoɔden te sɛ deɛ moyɛɛ ɛberɛ a mosɔre tiaa Onyankopɔn no; sɛdeɛ moyɛɛ da a na mowɔ ɛserɛ so a mosɔɔ no hwɛeɛ no.

Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation; in the day of temptation in the desert,

9 Ɛhɔ no, mo mpanimfoɔ sɔɔ no hwɛeɛ, nanso wɔhunuu deɛ meyɛɛ no mfeɛ aduanan mu.

Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works,

10 Esiane saa enti, me bo fuu saa nnipa no kaa sɛ, ‘Wɔyɛ nnipa a wɔn akoma amane afiri me ho, na wɔanhunu mʼakwan.’

Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways,

11 Ɛno enti mekaa ntam wɔ mʼabufuo mu sɛ, ‘Wɔrenhyɛne mʼahomegyeɛ mu da.’”

As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest.

12 Me nuanom monhwɛ yie na mo mu bi annya akoma bɔne a ɔrennye Onyankopɔn nni na ɛbɛma watwe ne ho afiri Onyankopɔn teasefoɔ no ho.

Take heed, brethren, lest perhaps there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, to depart from the living God.

13 Na mmom, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a bɔne rennaadaa mo mu bi na wɔnyɛ asoɔden enti, da biara mommoaboa mo ho mo ho ɛberɛ a asɛm “Ɛnnɛ” a ɛwɔ Atwerɛsɛm mu no fa yɛn ho no.

But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called today, that none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14 Na sɛ yɛsɔ gyidie a yɛwɔ no mu denden sɛdeɛ yɛde firi ahyɛaseɛ no a, na yɛyɛ Kristo fafafoɔ.

For we are made partakers of Christ: yet so, if we hold the beginning of his substance firm unto the end.

15 Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Sɛ ɛnnɛ mote Onyankopɔn nne a, monnyɛ asoɔden te sɛ deɛ moyɛɛ ɛberɛ a mosɔre tiaa Onyankopɔn no.”

While it is said, Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in that provocation.

16 Ɛhefoɔ na wɔtee Onyankopɔn nne na wɔsɔre tiaa no no? Nnipa a Mose dii wɔn anim firi Misraim no nyinaa.

For some who heard did provoke: but not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.

17 Ɛhefoɔ na Onyankopɔn bo fuu wɔn mfirinhyia aduanan no? Nnipa a wɔyɛɛ bɔne na wɔtete hwe wuwuu wɔ ɛserɛ so no.

And with whom was he offended forty years? Was it not with them that sinned, whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert?

18 Ɛberɛ a Onyankopɔn kaa ntam sɛ, “Wɔremma me home mu da” no, na ɔreka akyerɛ ɛhefoɔ? Na ɔreka akyerɛ wɔn a wɔyɛɛ asoɔden no.

And to whom did he swear, that they should not enter into his rest: but to them that were incredulous?

19 Afei, yɛhunu sɛ wɔantumi ankɔ home no mu, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔannye anni.

And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief.
