Vaebrania 4
1 Pauluo, lutunoghile kuva maso ulwakutu mulyumue napweangavisaghe nambe jumonga juno kwande ikunua kuva nulufingo ulukwilanifu lwakwingila muvwavuke vwa Nguluve.
Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest remains open, let us proceed with fear so that none of you may be found to have fallen short of it.
2 Ulwakuva tulinimola inofu vwimila ulupumo lwa Nguluvelikapulisivue mulyusue ndavule ava Israeli luno valyale nalo, looli imola ijio najikavatanga vala vano vakapulikekisila kulungika ulwitiko uluo.
For we also have received good news just as they did. But the message they heard did not benefit them, since they were not united by faith with those who listened.
3 Mu lyusue, twevano twitike-usue ena muvamo tulikwingila mu lupumo lula, ndavule vule jijova, “Ndavule nikijiighile mu lyoojo lyango, Navangingile mulupumo lango.” Akajovile ulu, ulwakuva imbombo soni sna akavombile skakwilanile kuhima muvutengulilo vwa iisi.
For we who have believed enter that rest. As for the others, God has said, “As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter my rest!’” Now God's works have been finished from the foundation of the world.
4 Lino ye ajovile pala oamonga vwimila ikighono kya lekela lubale, “UNguluve alyapumile mukighono kya lekela lubale kusoni sino akavombile.”
For in one place it speaks about the seventh day as follows: “On the seventh day God rested from all his works.”
5 Kange ajovile, “Navangingile mululumo lwango.”
But again, God says in the passage above: “They will not enter my rest!”
6 Pauluo, kutengulila ulupumo lwa Nguleve bado lwigho vwimila vwa vamo kukwingilla, kuvutengulilo vwa vaisraeli vinga vano vakapulike imola inofu vwimila ulupumo lwa mwene navakingile ulwakuva nava kamwitike,
Therefore, since God's rest remains open for some to enter, and those who formerly received good news did not enter because of their disobedience,
7 UNguluve akabik a kange ikighono kimonga, kikemelua, “Umusyughu.” Umwene akatemile ikighono iki ye ajovile kukilila u Daudi, juno alyajovile kunsiki n'tali jukila ghano ghakajovilue kuvutengulilo, “Umusyughu nave mupulika ilisio lya mwene, namulabikagha amojo ghinu kuva magumu.”
he again designates a certain day, calling it “Today,” as he says through David much later, in the passage already quoted, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.”
8 Ndavule u Yoshua yevavapelile ulupumo, uNguluve asaleka kujova mu kighono ikinge.
For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.
9 Pa uluo kuliva ni Sabati ja lupumo jino jibikilue vwimila vwa vaanhu va Nguluve.
So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
10 Juno ikwingila muvupuumo vwa Nguluve umwene jujuo apumile kuhumilanila ni mbombo sa mwene, ndavule u Nguluve vule avombile wa mwene.
For anyone who has entered God's rest has rested from his own works, just as God rested from his.
11 Lutunoghile kuva nikyumilyua kya kwingila muvupuumo, neke napwengavisaghe juno ighwila mufihwani fya vugalusi vono vavombile.
Therefore let us make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall into the same pattern of disobedience.
12 Ulwaku ilisio lya Nguluve lili nu vwumi ni ngufu kange lili nuvutemi kukila uvwa bamba jejoni inya vutemi kuvili. Kange jihoma nakufikila kughavania inafusi sa numbula, nifilungo fya muunhu nifino nafighwesia kughaving'haana. Nilino likagula gha numbula gha mwene.
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the point of dividing soul from spirit, and joints from marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
13 Nakwekile kino kifisime pa vweni vwa Nguluve. Pa uluo, ifinu fyoni fikuvonesia pa vweli ku maso gha jumo juno ighanilue kuhumia ifivalilo.
No creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.
14 Pambele kuva nu n'tekesi um'baha juno alingile mu iisi, uYesu mwana ghwa Nguluve, kuvukangali tugadilile ulwitiko lwitu.
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.
15 Ulwakuva tusila n'tekesi um'baha juno na ikagula ulusungu vwimila uvuvotevote vwitu, looli umwene juno isila sa mwene soni akale ighwelua ndavule usue, looli unsila nyivi.
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are, yet was without sin.
16 Pe tuise nuvukangali pa kitengo ikya vutua ika lusungu, neke kuuti twupile uvumofu kange kupelua ulusungu ulwa vupoki unsiki ghwa vufumbue.
Therefore let us draw near to the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
