< 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 calling, consider the apostle and high-priest of our profession, Christ 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 was faithful to Him that appointed Him, as Moses also was in all his house.
3 Onipa a ɔsi efie nya animuonyam sene efie no ankasa.
For He was accounted worthy of more honor than Moses, as he who hath built it, hath more honor 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 one: and He who 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 was indeed faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of the things which were to be spoken:
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 a Son over his own house; whose house we are, if we maintain the free profession and exultation of hope firm unto the end.
7 Enti Honhom Kronkron no ka sɛ, “Sɛ ɛnnɛ mote Onyankopɔn nne a,
Therefore, as the holy Ghost saith, "To-day if ye will 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 wilderness, when your fathers tempted me,
9 Ɛhɔ no, mo mpanimfoɔ sɔɔ no hwɛeɛ, nanso wɔhunuu deɛ meyɛɛ no mfeɛ aduanan mu.
proved me, and saw my works forty years:
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 provoked with that generation, and said, They are always erring in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
11 Ɛno enti mekaa ntam wɔ mʼabufuo mu sɛ, ‘Wɔrenhyɛne mʼahomegyeɛ mu da.’”
so I sware in my wrath, they shall not 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, my brethren, least there be in any of you a wicked heart of unbelief in departing 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 daily, while it is called to-day; that none of you may 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, if we hold fast our first confidence firm unto the end; inasmuch as it is said,
15 Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Sɛ ɛnnɛ mote Onyankopɔn nne a, monnyɛ asoɔden te sɛ deɛ moyɛɛ ɛberɛ a mosɔre tiaa Onyankopɔn no.”
"To-day if ye will hear his voice,
16 Ɛhefoɔ na wɔtee Onyankopɔn nne na wɔsɔre tiaa no no? Nnipa a Mose dii wɔn anim firi Misraim no nyinaa.
harden not your hearts, as in the provocation." For some that heard did provoke; but not all that came out of Egypt with 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 whom was He provoked forty years? was it not with those that sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
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 those that were disobedient?
19 Afei, yɛhunu sɛ wɔantumi ankɔ home no mu, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔannye anni.
and so we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
