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.
Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heauenly vocation, consider the Apostle and high Priest of our profession Christ Iesus:
2 Na ɔdii Onyankopɔn a ɔyii no sɛ ɔnyɛ saa adwuma yi no nokorɛ sɛdeɛ Mose nso dii nokorɛ wɔ Onyankopɔn fie no.
Who was faithfull to him that hath appointed him, euen as Moses was in al his house.
3 Onipa a ɔsi efie nya animuonyam sene efie no ankasa.
For this man is counted worthy of more glory then Moses, inasmuch as he which hath builded the house, hath more honour then 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 euery house is builded of some man, and he that hath built all things, is God.
5 Mose dii Onyankopɔn nokorɛ sɛ ɔsomfoɔ wɔ ne fie na ɔkaa nsɛm a Onyankopɔn bɛka daakye no nyinaa.
Now Moses verely was faithfull in all his house, as a seruant, for a witnesse of the thinges which should be spoken after.
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 is as the Sonne, ouer his owne house, whose house we are, if we holde fast that confidence and that reioycing of that hope vnto the ende.
7 Enti Honhom Kronkron no ka sɛ, “Sɛ ɛnnɛ mote Onyankopɔn nne a,
Wherefore, as the holy Ghost sayth, To day if ye shall heare his voyce,
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 prouocation, according to the day of the tentation in the wildernes,
9 Ɛhɔ no, mo mpanimfoɔ sɔɔ no hwɛeɛ, nanso wɔhunuu deɛ meyɛɛ no mfeɛ aduanan mu.
Where your fathers tempted me, prooued me, and sawe my workes fourtie yeeres long.
10 Esiane saa enti, me bo fuu saa nnipa no kaa sɛ, ‘Wɔyɛ nnipa a wɔn akoma amane afiri me ho, na wɔanhunu mʼakwan.’
Wherefore I was grieued with that generation, and sayde, They erre euer in their heart, neither haue they knowen my wayes.
11 Ɛno enti mekaa ntam wɔ mʼabufuo mu sɛ, ‘Wɔrenhyɛne mʼahomegyeɛ mu da.’”
Therefore I sware 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 heede, brethren, least at any time there be in any of you an euill heart, and vnfaithfull, to depart away from the liuing 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 dayly, while it is called to day, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulnes of sinne.
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, if we keepe sure vnto the ende that beginning, wherewith we are vpholden,
15 Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Sɛ ɛnnɛ mote Onyankopɔn nne a, monnyɛ asoɔden te sɛ deɛ moyɛɛ ɛberɛ a mosɔre tiaa Onyankopɔn no.”
So long as it is sayd, To day if ye heare his voyce, harden not your hearts, as in the prouocation.
16 Ɛhefoɔ na wɔtee Onyankopɔn nne na wɔsɔre tiaa no no? Nnipa a Mose dii wɔn anim firi Misraim no nyinaa.
For some when they heard, prouoked him to anger: howbeit, 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.
But with whome was he displeased fourtie yeeres? Was hee not displeased with them that sinned, whose carkeises fell in the wildernes?
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 sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but vnto them that obeyed not?
19 Afei, yɛhunu sɛ wɔantumi ankɔ home no mu, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔannye anni.
So we see that they could not enter in, because of vnbeliefe.
