Ibraniyawa 11
1 Nene uyinnu sa uyenu, unere uyinnuari ule na unit dumun, idinin nayi akone ncaa nimomon, utabbas nimon ile na isa yene ba.
Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.
2 Bara nanere acif bite iwa yinin nighinu bara uyinnu mine sa uyenu.
For by this, the elders obtained approval.
3 Kiti nyinnu sa uyenuari, tina yinin nworu iwasu makekewa kiti nbellu Kutelle, bara nworo imon ile na iwadi nyenju ba, iwa ke nanya nimon ile na idi sa uyenju. (aiōn g165)
By faith we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible. (aiōn g165)
4 Uwadi kitene nyinnu sa uyenuari Habila wanii Kutelle uzaka dedeii na nafo gwane Kayinu ba, uwasa bara nanere iwa rughe bara lidu lilau, kutelle wa rughe bara uzaka na awa nii, bara nanere Habila duu nliru, nworu ana mal ukuu.
By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks.

By faith Enoch was taken away, so that he wouldn’t see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God.
6 Tiwasa tipoo Kutelle ayi ba, asa ti dira uyinnu sa uyenu, bara ulenge na aba dak kiti Kutelle gbarsari ayinin au aduku, nin nworu adin nizu uduk kiti nalenge na idin piziru ghe.
Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.
7 uwadi nin yinnu sa uyenuari, Kutelle was gbaru Nufu ku, mbellen nimon ile na Isa yene ba, nin durtu Kutelle akee uzirgi bara usu tucu kilari mye, bara usu nani amini wati uyu lawa anan ncaah nkuul, bara iwa da lawa anan fiu, Kutelle na udin dasu kiti nyinnu sa uyenu.

For he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11 Nin nyinnu sauyenuari Ibrahim nin wani mye saraya, iwa seru likara nmaru kube na iwadi ikunno gbongbong, na iwa yene Kutelle ulle na iba yinnu ninghe, ulenge na ana su nani alikawali ngono.
By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised.
12 Bara nani tutun, unuzu nnit ulere ulenge na awa dak susut nkuu awa macu akara gbardang iwa so gbardang nafo iyini kitene kani, nafo licicin kurawa longo na iwasa iguro ba.
Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.
13 Inughe vat wa kuzu sa useru nalikwali, nin nani iwa iyinna yene nin nse nmahabi a idutu piit, iyinna inug amarari nanya inye.
These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
14 Bara alenge na iwa bellin ile ione wa nutun fong nworu idin piziru nilari nati mine.
For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
15 Kidegen andi idin kpilizu mbellen kipin kanga na ina nuzuku, iwa se kubin nkpillu.
If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.
16 Bara iwadi ncisu kibinai kipin kicine kinnere kitene kani, bara nani na Kutelle wa lanza icing iyicilaghe Kutelle mine ba, tunda na ana kele kagbir bara inughe.
But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

25 Nin nani afere ukosu nniu nan nanit Kutelle nan nworu alanza nmang un kulapi kubi baat.

What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets—

They were stoned. They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated—
38 Bara inughe na uyee was caun nani ba, ngalu nanya kusho, nan nakup, a ataii, nan nagbongbon kuteen.
of whom the world was not worthy—wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
