Ibraniyawa 6
1 Nin nani usunu nimon na iwa durso nari nin nburne, kitene kaduran Kiristi, tiba li uban udu tikunag, na tutun utunu litino ndiu katyen nanya katuwa nkul, a uyinnu nin Kutelle,
Therefore leaving elementary instruction about the Christ, let us advance to mature manhood and not be continually re-laying a foundation of repentance from lifeless works and of faith in God,
2 na nlon litino ndursuzu kitene nsulsunu ulau, utardu nacara, utitu na nan nkul, in nshara sa ligan. (aiōnios g166)
or of teaching about ceremonial washings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and the last judgement. (aiōnios g166)
3 Arike tutun ba su ulle imone asa Kutelle nyinna.
And advance we will, if God permits us to do so.
4 Bara uso gbas, kiti na lenge na iwa tinani iyinno, ule na awa dumun ufillu Kutelle, ule na iwa kuso nin nfip milau.
For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once for all been enlightened, and have tasted the sweetness of the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit,
and have realized how good the word of God is and how mighty are the powers of the coming Age, and then fell away-- (aiōn g165)
6 inug alle na iwa diuwe-udinin nijasi ukpiliya nani tutun udin ndiu kutyin, nanere bara na inghe atimine wa kotin gono Kutelle kitene kuca, tutun itanghe aso imon ncing fong.
it is impossible, I say, to keep bringing them back to a new repentance, for, to their own undoing, they are repeatedly crucifying the Son of God afresh and exposing Him to open shame.
7 Bara kutyin na serru uwuru na udi njju kunin, nkoni din nutuzunu ileou isesu uampani inug alle na idi katuwa kunenne, isere nmari kiti Kutelle.
For land which has drunk in the rain that often falls upon it, and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sakes, indeed, it is tilled, has a share in God's blessing.
8 Bara as kunutuno imart nin ubarje, ku ba so hem, nin ndre nnti nnu, imalline ba dak nin njujuzu.
But if it only yields a mass of thorns and briers, it is considered worthless, and is in danger of being cursed, and in the end will be destroyed by fire.
9 Vat nin nani tidin nliru nenge, adondong bite tise likara nimon icine, ulenge na idi immine, imon ille na idi in tucue.
But we, even while we speak in this tone, have a happier conviction concerning you, my dearly-loved friends--a conviction of things which point towards salvation.
10 Bara na Kutelle unan salin adalciari ba, na aba shawu nin katuwa mine nin nsu na ina durso bara lissa me, nanya nanere iwa tumuzun annit alau, udak nene idinsu nani.
For God is not unjust so that He is unmindful of your labour and of the love which you have manifested towards Himself in having rendered services to His people and in still rendering them.
11 Nin nani arike ntah nibinayi, nworo kogha nanya mine ba dursu imusu nciu kibinayi udu imalin, nin se ntabas nyinnu.
But we long for each of you to continue to manifest the same earnestness, with a view to your enjoying fulness of hope to the very End;
12 Na tidinin su ilawa shankalong ba, mbara iso anan nsu nimon ule na anan nse ngadu na likawali, bara iyinnu nin nayi ashau.
so that you may not become half-hearted, but be imitators of those who through faith and patient endurance are now heirs to the promises.
13 Bara kubi na Kutelle wa su Ibrahim ku likawali, a wa sillo nin litime, tunda na awasa a sillo nin mong ulenge na adi udiya ba.
For when God gave the promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself,
14 Ame woronghe “meng lallai mba tifi nmari, mba kuru nkpin ngbardang likurafe?”
saying, "Assuredly I will bless you and bless you, I will increase you and increase you."
15 Nanya nlo libau were Ibrahim nwanse ille imon na iwa su nghe likawali, kubi na awa cicah nanya hankuri.
And so, as the result of patient waiting, our forefather obtained what God had promised.
16 Bara anit dinsu isillin ninle na akatin nani nin gbardang, nanya namusu mine, isillin nnere imaline vat.
For men swear by what is greater than themselves; and with them an oath in confirmation of a statement always puts an end to a dispute.
17 Kubi na Kutelle wa yinin adurso nkanang udu kiti na nan ngadu nalikawali, imon nsali nsakisu ngegeme, nadlili me, awa ni uyinnu nin nisillin.
In the same way, since it was God's desire to display more convincingly to the heirs of the promise how unchangeable His purpose was,
18 Awa su nani bara imon ibba illenge na idin sakisu ba, nanya nilenge na udinin nijasi Kutelle su kinnu, arike alenge na tina chum udu kiti nyeshinu tiba se likara kibinayi timin uti nayi ulle na ina ceou bara arike.
He added an oath, in order that, through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for Him to prove false, we may possess mighty encouragement--we who, for safety, have hastened to lay hold of the hope set before us.
19 Tidimu nle uciu kibanayi, nafo ukessu nin likara ntabatu nidowo bite, uti kibinayi na uwa piru nanya kiti kuzeni kibulun.
That hope we have as an anchor of the soul--an anchor that can neither break nor drag. It passes in behind the veil,
