Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not apparent.
2 Ecen harçaz aitzinecoec testimoniage vkan duté.
For this reason, the ancients were given testimony.

By faith, Abel offered to God a much better sacrifice than that of Cain, through which he obtained testimony that he was just, in that God offered testimony to his gifts. And through that sacrifice, he still speaks to us, though he is dead.

By faith, Enoch was transferred, so that he would not see death, and he was not found because God had transferred him. For before he was transferred, he had testimony that he pleased God.
6 Bada impossible da fede gabe haren gogaraco içatea: ecen Iaincoagana ethorten denac, behar da sinhets deçan ecen Iaincoa badela, eta hura bilhatzen dutenén recompensaçale dela.
But without faith, it is impossible to please God. For whoever approaches God must believe that he exists, and that he rewards those who seek him.
7 Fedez Noéc, diuinoqui auertitu içanic oraino ikusten etziraden gaucéz, beldurturic, appresta ceçan arká bere familiaren saluatzeco: cein arkaz condemna baitzeçan mundua: eta eguin cedin fedearen arauez den iustitiaren heredero.
