Hebrews 6
1 So, we [(inc)] must not keep [discussing] the elementary principles about Christ. Instead, we must proceed [to the teaching that will make us spiritually] mature [MTY]. We must not [be people who always need someone to teach them] the elementary truths [about Christ that are like] [MET] a foundation. [I am referring to the teaching that people who do sinful] things must turn away from their sinful behavior, things that [those who are spiritually] [MET] dead do. [I am referring to the teaching] that people must believe in God.
Neco katuyani pantangu mu ciyisho calumbuluka, katushiyani ciyisho citanshi ncetwalayishiwa cilambanga sha Ciklistu. Nkatwela kayi kutala lulindi lwakubwelela kunyuma ku ncito shabulyo, ne motwela kushomena Lesa.
2 [I am referring to the teaching about what] various [Jewish and Christian] rituals for purifying people [signify. I am referring to the teaching about how elders enable people to receive spiritual gifts by] laying hands [on them] [MTY]. [I am referring to the teaching that God will] ([cause] those who have died to live again/raise people from the dead). And [I am referring to the teaching that God] will judge [some people and punish them] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Ne ciyisho ca lubatisho, ne cinga ca kubika makasa pabantu ne ca kupunduka ku bafu, kayi ne sha cisubulo ca cindi conse Lesa nceti akape. (aiōnios g166)
3 [Instead of continuing to discuss these elementary truths], we [(inc)] (OR, I) will [go on to give people mature teaching], if God allows it.
Katuyani pantangu, na Lesa utusuminisha ngatwinseco nditu.
4 [I will explain why it is important to do that. Some] people have at one time fully understood [the message about Christ] [MET]. They have experienced [a relationship with Jesus Christ] that God [EUP/MTY] gave [to them]. They have received the Holy Spirit the same as [others have].
Inga bantu balashiya lushomo lwabo ngabalapeconi? Kakuli Lesa walabamunikilapo kendi, balatelelako cipo ca kwilu ne kutambulako Mushimu Uswepa pamo ne banabo.
5 They have experienced that God’s message is good. And by what they have experienced [now], they know how [God will work] powerfully in the future. If those people reject [the message about Christ], it will not be possible for anyone to persuade them to turn away from their sinful behavior again! (aiōn g165)
Balatelelako kwina kwa Maswi a Lesa, kayi ne ngofu nsheti akaboneshe Lesa mu cindi cilesanga. (aiōn g165)
6 What those [believers who later renounce the message about Christ do is as though] [MET] they themselves are nailing the Son of God to a cross again! They are causing others to publicly despise Christ.
Nomba lino abo balacileka kushoma Lesa, nkacela kukonsheka kubabwesheti balape, pakwinga balabangeti balamupoponga pa lusanda kayi Mwanendi Lesa ne kumusebanya.
7 Think about this: It is land on which rain has frequently fallen [PRS] and on which plants grow [PRS] that is useful for the people who prepare the land that God has blessed. [Similarly, it is those believers who have received many good things from God and who do good deeds/things that please God, whom God will bless] [MET].
Bulongo bukute kunwina menshi a mfula ikute kuloka cindi conse. Papita cindi pakute kupula mu mena ukute kupa cakulya, ico cili colwe cakondwelesha mulimi.
8 But [what will happen to believers who do deeds/things that do not please God will be like what happens to land] on which [only] thorns and thistles grow [MET]. [Such land] is worthless. It has almost become land that God will curse, and eventually he will burn [its vegetation] [MTY].
Nomba na mu bulongo mumena myunga ne lubamba, bulongobo buliya ncito. Neco buli pepi kushinganwa ne Lesa pa cindi ciliconse celela ne kubutenta.
9 Although I am writing [to you] like this as a [warning], I am certain concerning you whom I love that [you are doing] better than that. Specifically, I am sure that [you are doing] the things that are appropriate [for those whom God] has saved.
Mobanse omwasunika, nambi tulambangeco, nkatulamutonshanyanga. Twashometi mukute bintu byaina byela kumutangunina ku lupulusho.
10 Since God always acts justly [LIT], he will not overlook all you have done [for him. He will also not overlook] [MTY] [your showing that you love] him by the way you helped your fellow believers and [by the way you still] help them. [Instead, God will reward you for doing good deeds].
Lesa walulama cindi conse, neco nakapitilishe kwanuka ncito shenu nshemwalikwinsa, kayi ne lusuno ndomukute lwakunyamfwa baklistu banenu kayi mulapitilishinga kwinseco.
11 I very much want each of you to diligently continue to fully expect to receive [what God has provided for you], until you finally [receive everything that you have confidently expected to receive].
Tulayandangeti uliyense mulikoto lyenu apitilishe kangwabu mpaka kumapwililisho, kwambeti ncemulapembelelenga mpaka cikaboneke.
12 I do not want you to be lazy. [Instead, I want] you to imitate those who, because they patiently continued to trust in [God], are receiving what he promised them.
Nkatusuni kwambeti mube batolo sobwe, nsombi kamubani bantu bashoma balibambila kutambula ibyo Lesa mbyalashomesha kupitila mu lushomo ne moyonteka.
13 When God promised to [do things for] Abraham, he said that he would punish himself [if he did not do that], because there was no one of greater importance to ask to punish him [if he did not do it].
Pa cindi Lesa ncalamushomesha Abulahamu kwambeti nakamupe cintu, walalumbileti nakense kwelana ne kushomesha kwakendi. Pakwinga nkapalikuba naumbi wamupita, ecebo cakendi Lesa walalumbila pa Lina lyakendi mwine.
14 He said [to Abraham], “I will certainly bless you [(sg)], and I will certainly increase [the number of] your [descendants] [SYN].”
Walambeti, “Ndakushomeshengeti ninkakupe colwe kayi ninkafulishe mukowa wakobe.”
15 As a result, after Abraham patiently waited [for God to do what he promised], he received what [God] promised him.
Neco Abulahamu walapembelela ca moyonteka, kayi walatambula ico Lesa ncalamushomesha.
16 [Keep in mind that when people promise something], they ask a more important person to punish them if they do not do what they promise. Furthermore, when people ask God to punish them [if they do not tell the truth], that causes people who are disputing to stop disputing.
Lino bantu balumbilanga bakute kulumbila palina lya muntu wabapita, kulumbila kwa ncinencine kulico ekukute kupwisha ntota shabo.
17 So, when God wanted to demonstrate very clearly (to us/to those people) who would receive what he had promised that he would not change what he had purposed [to do], he solemnly guaranteed that he would declare himself guilty if he did not do what he promised.
Lesa walayanda kubabonesha abo beti bakatambule mbyalabashomesha kwambeti nakense kwelana ne bubambo bwakendi. Ecebo ncalalumbilila ne kukonkomesha mukushomesha kwakendi.
18 He did that to strongly encourage us as a result of our [knowing] that [God has done] two things that cannot change. [Namely, he promised to bless us, and he solemnly declared that he would declare himself guilty if he did not bless us]. We [know] that God, who did those things, cannot lie. We have fled [to him] in order that we might continue confidently to expect to receive what he promised us.
Neco ibi bintu bibili, kushomesha kayi ne kulumbila, cakubinga nibikenshike pakwinga Lesa nkabepe kayi nkashinti sobwe. Afwe otwala fwambila kulyendiye akuyuba tukute kuyuminishiwa pakumbelela nkwalatupa.
19 [Our confidently expecting] [SYN] [to receive what he has promised is like] an anchor [MET] that very firmly [DOU] [holds us fast. The one we confidently expect to help us] [SYN] [is Jesus, who] goes into [God’s very presence, just like the Supreme Priests went] behind the curtain into the innermost [part of the tent in the barren area] [MET].
Uku kupembelela kwelaneti mukoboco wa buyumi bwetu. Ekulatupanga kubula buyowa, kayi ne kutatenkana nikukatushikishe kwilu mu Ng'anda ya Lesa kunsa kwa cikwisa cashinkilisha pakati ne kuya kwingila mukati mu Musena Waswepa.
20 Jesus went [into God’s presence] ahead of us [(inc)] to [help] us when he became a Supreme Priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest. (aiōn g165)
Uko Yesu nkwalaba mutanshi kwingilako cebo cetu, walaba Shimilumbo Mukulene wa cindi citapu mbuli ncebwalikuba bushimilumbo bwa Melekisedeki. (aiōn g165)
