< Hebrews 11 >

1 Now faith is [the] substantiating of things hoped for, [the] conviction of things not seen.
ཝིཤྭཱས ཨཱཤཾསིཏཱནཱཾ ནིཤྩཡཿ, ཨདྲྀཤྱཱནཱཾ ཝིཥཡཱཎཱཾ དརྴནཾ བྷཝཏི།
2 For in [the power of] this the elders have obtained testimony.
ཏེན ཝིཤྭཱསེན པྲཱཉྩོ ལོཀཱཿ པྲཱམཱཎྱཾ པྲཱཔྟཝནྟཿ།
3 By faith we apprehend that the worlds were framed by [the] word of God, so that that which is seen should not take its origin from things which appear. (aiōn g165)
ཨཔརམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ ཝཱཀྱེན ཛགནྟྱསྲྀཛྱནྟ, དྲྀཥྚཝསྟཱུནི ཙ པྲཏྱཀྵཝསྟུབྷྱོ ནོདཔདྱནྟཻཏད྄ ཝཡཾ ཝིཤྭཱསེན བུདྷྱཱམཧེ། (aiōn g165)
4 By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained testimony of being righteous, God bearing testimony to his gifts, and by it, having died, he yet speaks.
ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཧཱབིལ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརམུདྡིཤྱ ཀཱབིལཿ ཤྲེཥྛཾ བལིདཱནཾ ཀྲྀཏཝཱན྄ ཏསྨཱཙྩེཤྭརེཎ ཏསྱ དཱནཱནྱདྷི པྲམཱཎེ དཏྟེ ས དྷཱརྨྨིཀ ཨིཏྱསྱ པྲམཱཎཾ ལབྡྷཝཱན྄ ཏེན ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཙ ས མྲྀཏཿ སན྄ ཨདྱཱཔི བྷཱཥཏེ།
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him; for before [his] translation he has the testimony that he had pleased God.
ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཧནོཀ྄ ཡཐཱ མྲྀཏྱུཾ ན པཤྱེཏ྄ ཏཐཱ ལོཀཱནྟརཾ ནཱིཏཿ, ཏསྱོདྡེཤཤྩ ཀེནཱཔི ན པྲཱཔི ཡཏ ཨཱིཤྭརསྟཾ ལོཀཱནྟརཾ ནཱིཏཝཱན྄, ཏཏྤྲམཱཎམིདཾ ཏསྱ ལོཀཱནྟརཱིཀརཎཱཏ྄ པཱུཪྻྭཾ ས ཨཱིཤྭརཱཡ རོཙིཏཝཱན྄ ཨིཏི པྲམཱཎཾ པྲཱཔྟཝཱན྄།
6 But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]. For he that draws near to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them who seek him out.
ཀིནྟུ ཝིཤྭཱསཾ ཝིནཱ ཀོ྅པཱིཤྭརཱཡ རོཙིཏུཾ ན ཤཀྣོཏི ཡཏ ཨཱིཤྭརོ྅སྟི སྭཱནྭེཥིལོཀེབྷྱཿ པུརསྐཱརཾ དདཱཏི ཙེཏིཀཐཱཡཱམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརཤརཎཱགཏཻ ཪྻིཤྭསིཏཝྱཾ།
7 By faith, Noah, oracularly warned concerning things not yet seen, moved with fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which [is] according to faith.
ཨཔརཾ ཏདཱནཱིཾ ཡཱནྱདྲྀཤྱཱནྱཱསན྄ ཏཱནཱིཤྭརེཎཱདིཥྚཿ སན྄ ནོཧོ ཝིཤྭཱསེན བྷཱིཏྭཱ སྭཔརིཛནཱནཱཾ རཀྵཱརྠཾ པོཏཾ ནིརྨྨིཏཝཱན྄ ཏེན ཙ ཛགཛྫནཱནཱཾ དོཥཱན྄ དརྴིཏཝཱན྄ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ལབྷྱསྱ པུཎྱསྱཱདྷིཀཱརཱི བབྷཱུཝ ཙ།
8 By faith Abraham, being called, obeyed to go out into the place which he was to receive for an inheritance, and went out, not knowing where he was going.
ཝིཤྭཱསེནེབྲཱཧཱིམ྄ ཨཱཧཱུཏཿ སན྄ ཨཱཛྙཱཾ གྲྀཧཱིཏྭཱ ཡསྱ སྠཱནསྱཱདྷིཀཱརསྟེན པྲཱཔྟཝྱསྟཏ྄ སྠཱནཾ པྲསྠིཏཝཱན྄ ཀིནྟུ པྲསྠཱནསམཡེ ཀྐ ཡཱམཱིཏི ནཱཛཱནཱཏ྄།
9 By faith he sojourned as a stranger in the land of promise as a foreign country, having dwelt in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with [him] of the same promise;
ཝིཤྭཱསེན ས པྲཏིཛྙཱཏེ དེཤེ པརདེཤཝཏ྄ པྲཝསན྄ ཏསྱཱཿ པྲཏིཛྙཱཡཱཿ སམཱནཱཾཤིབྷྱཱམ྄ ཨིསྷཱཀཱ ཡཱཀཱུབཱ ཙ སཧ དཱུཥྱཝཱསྱབྷཝཏ྄།
10 for he waited for the city which has foundations, of which God is [the] artificer and constructor.
ཡསྨཱཏ྄ ས ཨཱིཤྭརེཎ ནིརྨྨིཏཾ སྠཱཔིཏཉྩ བྷིཏྟིམཱུལཡུཀྟཾ ནགརཾ པྲཏྱཻཀྵཏ།
11 By faith also Sarah herself received strength for [the] conception of seed, and [that] beyond a seasonable age; since she counted him faithful who promised.
ཨཔརཉྩ ཝིཤྭཱསེན སཱརཱ ཝཡོཏིཀྲཱནྟཱ སནྟྱཔི གརྦྷདྷཱརཎཱཡ ཤཀྟིཾ པྲཱཔྱ པུཏྲཝཏྱབྷཝཏ྄, ཡཏཿ སཱ པྲཏིཛྙཱཀཱརིཎཾ ཝིཤྭཱསྱམ྄ ཨམནྱཏ།
12 Wherefore also there have been born of one, and that of one become dead, even as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the countless sand which [is] by the sea shore.
ཏཏོ ཧེཏོ རྨྲྀཏཀལྤཱད྄ ཨེཀསྨཱཏ྄ ཛནཱད྄ ཨཱཀཱཤཱིཡནཀྵཏྲཱཎཱིཝ གཎནཱཏཱིཏཱཿ སམུདྲཏཱིརསྠསིཀཏཱ ཨིཝ ཙཱསཾཁྱཱ ལོཀཱ ཨུཏྤེདིརེ།
13 All these died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them from afar off and embraced [them], and confessed that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.
ཨེཏེ སཪྻྭེ པྲཏིཛྙཱཡཱཿ ཕལཱནྱཔྲཱཔྱ ཀེཝལཾ དཱུརཱཏ྄ ཏཱནི ནིརཱིཀྵྱ ཝནྡིཏྭཱ ཙ, པྲྀཐིཝྱཱཾ ཝཡཾ ཝིདེཤིནཿ པྲཝཱསིནཤྩཱསྨཧ ཨིཏི སྭཱིཀྲྀཏྱ ཝིཤྭཱསེན པྲཱཎཱན྄ ཏཏྱཛུཿ།
14 For they who say such things shew clearly that they seek [their] country.
ཡེ ཏུ ཛནཱ ཨིཏྠཾ ཀཐཡནྟི ཏཻཿ པཻཏྲྀཀདེཤོ ྅སྨཱབྷིརནྭིཥྱཏ ཨིཏི པྲཀཱཤྱཏེ།
15 And if they had called to mind that from whence they went out, they had had opportunity to have returned;
ཏེ ཡསྨཱད྄ དེཤཱཏ྄ ནིརྒཏཱསྟཾ ཡདྱསྨརིཥྱན྄ ཏརྷི པརཱཝརྟྟནཱཡ སམཡམ྄ ཨལཔྶྱནྟ།
16 but now they seek a better, that is, a heavenly; wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God; for he has prepared for them a city.
ཀིནྟུ ཏེ སཪྻྭོཏྐྲྀཥྚམ྄ ཨརྠཏཿ སྭརྒཱིཡཾ དེཤམ྄ ཨཱཀཱངྐྵནྟི ཏསྨཱད྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྟཱནདྷི ན ལཛྫམཱནསྟེཥཱམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭར ཨིཏི ནཱམ གྲྀཧཱིཏཝཱན྄ ཡཏཿ ས ཏེཥཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ནགརམེཀཾ སཾསྠཱཔིཏཝཱན྄།
17 By faith Abraham, [when] tried, offered up Isaac, and he who had received to himself the promises offered up his only begotten [son],
ཨཔརམ྄ ཨིབྲཱཧཱིམཿ པརཱིཀྵཱཡཱཾ ཛཱཏཱཡཱཾ ས ཝིཤྭཱསེནེསྷཱཀམ྄ ཨུཏྶསརྫ,
18 as to whom it had been said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called:
ཝསྟུཏ ཨིསྷཱཀི ཏཝ ཝཾཤོ ཝིཁྱཱསྱཏ ཨིཏི ཝཱག྄ ཡམདྷི ཀཐིཏཱ ཏམ྄ ཨདྭིཏཱིཡཾ པུཏྲཾ པྲཏིཛྙཱཔྲཱཔྟཿ ས ཨུཏྶསརྫ།
19 counting that God [was] able to raise [him] even from among [the] dead, whence also he received him in a figure.
ཡཏ ཨཱིཤྭརོ མྲྀཏཱནཔྱུཏྠཱཔཡིཏུཾ ཤཀྣོཏཱིཏི ས མེནེ ཏསྨཱཏ྄ ས ཨུཔམཱརཱུཔཾ ཏཾ ལེབྷེ།
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
ཨཔརམ྄ ཨིསྷཱཀ྄ ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཡཱཀཱུབ྄ ཨེཥཱཝེ ཙ བྷཱཝིཝིཥཡཱནདྷྱཱཤིཥཾ དདཽ།
21 By faith Jacob [when] dying blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshipped on the top of his staff.
ཨཔརཾ ཡཱཀཱུབ྄ མརཎཀཱལེ ཝིཤྭཱསེན ཡཱུཥཕཿ པུཏྲཡོརེཀཻཀསྨཻ ཛནཱཡཱཤིཥཾ དདཽ ཡཥྚྱཱ ཨགྲབྷཱགེ སམཱལམྦྱ པྲཎནཱམ ཙ།
22 By faith Joseph [when] dying called to mind the going forth of the sons of Israel, and gave commandment concerning his bones.
ཨཔརཾ ཡཱུཥཕ྄ ཙརམཀཱལེ ཝིཤྭཱསེནེསྲཱཡེལྭཾཤཱིཡཱནཱཾ མིསརདེཤཱད྄ བཧིརྒམནསྱ ཝཱཙཾ ཛགཱད ནིཛཱསྠཱིནི ཙཱདྷི སམཱདིདེཤ།
23 By faith Moses, being born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw the child beautiful; and they did not fear the injunction of the king.
ནཝཛཱཏོ མཱུསཱཤྩ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཏྲཱན྄ མཱསཱན྄ སྭཔིཏྲྀབྷྱཱམ྄ ཨགོཔྱཏ ཡཏསྟཽ སྭཤིཤུཾ པརམསུནྡརཾ དྲྀཥྚཝནྟཽ རཱཛཱཛྙཱཉྩ ན ཤངྐིཏཝནྟཽ།
24 By faith Moses, when he had become great, refused to be called son of Pharaoh's daughter;
ཨཔརཾ ཝཡཿཔྲཱཔྟོ མཱུསཱ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཕིརཽཎོ དཽཧིཏྲ ཨིཏི ནཱམ ནཱངྒཱིཙཀཱར།
25 choosing rather to suffer affliction along with the people of God than to have [the] temporary pleasure of sin;
ཡཏཿ ས ཀྵཎིཀཱཏ྄ པཱཔཛསུཁབྷོགཱད྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ པྲཛཱབྷིཿ སཱརྡྡྷཾ དུཿཁབྷོགཾ ཝཝྲེ།
26 esteeming the reproach of the Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt, for he had respect to the recompense.
ཏཐཱ མིསརདེཤཱིཡནིདྷིབྷྱཿ ཁྲཱིཥྚནིམིཏྟཱཾ ནིནྡཱཾ མཧཏཱིཾ སམྤཏྟིཾ མེནེ ཡཏོ ཧེཏོཿ ས པུརསྐཱརདཱནམ྄ ཨཔཻཀྵཏ།
27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he persevered, as seeing him who is invisible.
ཨཔརཾ ས ཝིཤྭཱསེན རཱཛྙཿ ཀྲོདྷཱཏ྄ ན བྷཱིཏྭཱ མིསརདེཤཾ པརིཏཏྱཱཛ, ཡཏསྟེནཱདྲྀཤྱཾ ཝཱིཀྵམཱཎེནེཝ དྷཻཪྻྱམ྄ ཨཱལམྦི།
28 By faith he celebrated the passover and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.
ཨཔརཾ པྲཐམཛཱཏཱནཱཾ ཧནྟཱ ཡཏ྄ སྭཱིཡལོཀཱན྄ ན སྤྲྀཤེཏ྄ ཏདརྠཾ ས ཝིཤྭཱསེན ནིསྟཱརཔཪྻྭཱིཡབལིཙྪེདནཾ རུདྷིརསེཙནཉྩཱནུཥྛིཏཱཝཱན྄།
29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as through dry land; of which the Egyptians having made trial were swallowed up.
ཨཔརཾ ཏེ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ སྠལེནེཝ སཱུཕྶཱགརེཎ ཛགྨུཿ ཀིནྟུ མིསྲཱིཡལོཀཱསྟཏ྄ ཀརྟྟུམ྄ ཨུཔཀྲམྱ ཏོཡེཥུ མམཛྫུཿ།
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell, having been encircled for seven days.
ཨཔརཉྩ ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཏཻཿ སཔྟཱཧཾ ཡཱཝད྄ ཡིརཱིཧོཿ པྲཱཙཱིརསྱ པྲདཀྵིཎེ ཀྲྀཏེ ཏཏ྄ ནིཔཔཱཏ།
31 By faith Rahab the harlot did not perish along with the unbelieving, having received the spies in peace.
ཝིཤྭཱསཱད྄ རཱཧབྣཱམིཀཱ ཝེཤྱཱཔི པྲཱིཏྱཱ ཙཱརཱན྄ ཨནུགྲྀཧྱཱཝིཤྭཱསིབྷིཿ སཱརྡྡྷཾ ན ཝིནནཱཤ།
32 And what more do I say? For the time would fail me telling of Gideon, and Barak, and Samson, and Jephthah, and David and Samuel, and of the prophets:
ཨདྷིཀཾ ཀིཾ ཀཐཡིཥྱཱམི? གིདིཡོནོ བཱརཀཿ ཤིམྴོནོ ཡིཔྟཧོ དཱཡཱུད྄ ཤིམཱུཡེལོ བྷཝིཥྱདྭཱདིནཤྩཻཏེཥཱཾ ཝྲྀཏྟཱནྟཀཐནཱཡ མམ སམཡཱབྷཱཝོ བྷཝིཥྱཏི།
33 who by faith overcame kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped lions' mouths,
ཝིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ ཏེ རཱཛྱཱནི ཝཤཱིཀྲྀཏཝནྟོ དྷརྨྨཀརྨྨཱཎི སཱདྷིཏཝནྟཿ པྲཏིཛྙཱནཱཾ ཕལཾ ལབྡྷཝནྟཿ སིཾཧཱནཱཾ མུཁཱནི རུདྡྷཝནྟོ
34 quenched [the] power of fire, escaped [the] edge of the sword, became strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, made [the] armies of strangers give way.
ཝཧྣེརྡཱཧཾ ནིཪྻྭཱཔིཏཝནྟཿ ཁངྒདྷཱརཱད྄ རཀྵཱཾ པྲཱཔྟཝནྟོ དཽརྦྦལྱེ སབལཱིཀྲྀཏཱ ཡུདྡྷེ པརཱཀྲམིཎོ ཛཱཏཱཿ པརེཥཱཾ སཻནྱཱནི དཝཡིཏཝནྟཤྩ།
35 Women received their dead again by resurrection; and others were tortured, not having accepted deliverance, that they might get a better resurrection;
ཡོཥིཏཿ པུནརུཏྠཱནེན མྲྀཏཱན྄ ཨཱཏྨཛཱན྄ ལེབྷིརེ, ཨཔརེ ཙ ཤྲེཥྛོཏྠཱནསྱ པྲཱཔྟེརཱཤཡཱ རཀྵཱམ྄ ཨགྲྀཧཱིཏྭཱ ཏཱཌནེན མྲྀཏཝནྟཿ།
36 and others underwent trial of mockings and scourgings, yea, and of bonds and imprisonment.
ཨཔརེ ཏིརསྐཱརཻཿ ཀཤཱབྷི རྦནྡྷནཻཿ ཀཱརཡཱ ཙ པརཱིཀྵིཏཱཿ།
37 They were stoned, were sawn asunder, were tempted, died by the death of the sword; they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins, destitute, afflicted, evil treated,
བཧཝཤྩ པྲསྟརཱགྷཱཏཻ རྷཏཱཿ ཀརཔཏྲཻ ཪྻཱ ཝིདཱིརྞཱ ཡནྟྲཻ ཪྻཱ ཀླིཥྚཱཿ ཁངྒདྷཱརཻ ཪྻཱ ཝྱཱཔཱདིཏཱཿ། ཏེ མེཥཱཎཱཾ ཚཱགཱནཱཾ ཝཱ ཙརྨྨཱཎི པརིདྷཱཡ དཱིནཱཿ པཱིཌིཏཱ དུཿཁཱརྟྟཱཤྩཱབྷྲཱམྱན྄།
38 (of whom the world was not worthy, ) wandering in deserts and mountains, and [in] dens and caverns of the earth.
སཾསཱརོ ཡེཥཱམ྄ ཨཡོགྱསྟེ ནིརྫནསྠཱནེཥུ པཪྻྭཏེཥུ གཧྭརེཥུ པྲྀཐིཝྱཱཤྪིདྲེཥུ ཙ པཪྻྱཊན྄།
39 And these all, having obtained witness through faith, did not receive the promise,
ཨེཏཻཿ སཪྻྭཻ ཪྻིཤྭཱསཱཏ྄ པྲམཱཎཾ པྲཱཔི ཀིནྟུ པྲཏིཛྙཱཡཱཿ ཕལཾ ན པྲཱཔི།
40 God having foreseen some better thing for us, that they should not be made perfect without us.
