Hebrews 6
1 Therefore, let us leave behind the elementary teaching about the Christ and press on to perfection, not always laying over again a foundation of repentance for a lifeless formality, of faith in God —
nitu kima ki don tre u mumla u kristi ndi zren hi ko shishi mla u yindin ku na la kma hi ni tu kpatre rjia mbu u mumla wa bana gigla ndu mbani kponji ni mi rji
2 teaching concerning baptisms and the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead and a final judgment. (aiōnios g166)
nda na tsro u mumla nitu batsima ka ba wo kasa tashme u wa ba khwua ni tron u kakle (aiōnios g166)
3 Yes and, with God’s help, we will.
kie tie wayi ni kpanyeme rji
4 For if those who were once for all brought into the Light, and learned to appreciate the gift from Heaven, and came to share in the Holy Spirit,
ahi kpye u dii ndu biwa bana toh kpan nda la roo u shulu too wa ba kpa isan mba u rji tsratsra
5 and learned to appreciate the beauty of the Divine Message, and the new powers of the Coming Age — (aiōn g165)
nda latre ndindi u rji toh ni ngbengblen u nton uyea (aiōn g165)
6 if those, I say, fell away, it would be impossible to bring them again to repentance; they would be crucifying the Son of God over again for themselves, and exposing him to open contempt.
u nda ye joku ana tie tu ndu ba nji baye ni nkon rji ngana
7 Ground that drinks in the showers that from time to time fall upon it, and produces vegetation useful to those for whom it is tilled, receives a blessing from God;
u meme wa ani so malu wa ani ku nitu nitu nda ni ndu ba kpyi ba ndi ni bi ron baa rju ni bawu irji ni tu lulu niwu
8 but, if it ‘bears thorns and thistles,’ it is regarded as worthless, it is in danger of being ‘cursed,’ and its end will be the fire.
u kpyi bi rju ba hi he ngban me ni tie nyu u kle ma ahi gon lu
9 But about you, dear friends, even though we speak in this way, we are confident of better things — of things that point to your Salvation.
niwa kie hla towa anita niyumbi biyi wa kie sona kie toh ndi bi tu kpyi bi kpon bi utre gbujbu
10 For God is not unjust; he will not forget the work that you did, and the love that you showed for his Name, in sending help to your fellow Christians — as you are still doing.
u rji na wo ani tie meme na wani kama ni yu ndu mbi wa bi toh tie ndu ni bi tsratsra ba wa bi tie ye luwa me
11 But our great desire is that every one of you should be equally earnest to attain to a full conviction that our hope will be fulfilled, and that you should keep that hope to the end.
kie yo scon ni ndu yiyri mbi wu ndu tsro yo sron mbi hi kle nton a ni ndu yo sron bi ndu hi ngbangban
12 Then you will not show yourselves slow to learn, but you will copy those who, through faith and patience, are now entering upon the enjoyment of God’s promises.
ahe tokima ni ndu yi na tie sanko na ndi huza u waa nii nkon kponji ni vugble ba kpa yo nyu mba
13 When God gave his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater by whom he could swear, he swore by himself.
wa irji a yo nyu ni ibrahim nitu wa indjiori n a zanwu wa ani shrji niwu a na waa shirji nituma
14 His words were — ‘I will assuredly bless thee and increase thy numbers.’
a tre njanjimu nitie lulu niwu ndi ni nno bahbu gbugbuwu
15 And so, after patiently waiting, Abraham obtained the fulfilment of God’s promise.
nakima Ibrahim waa yogble nda gben aye kpa yo nyu ma
16 Men, of course, swear by what is greater than themselves, and with them an oath is accepted as putting a matter beyond all dispute.
cucu indji ba shirji ni kpye wa a zan bari u shirji hi kpye wa ani zon tre wa ba hla
17 And therefore God, in his desire to show, with unmistakable plainness, to those who were to enter on the enjoyment of what he had promised, the unchangeableness of his purpose, bound himself with an oath.
niwa rji a son tsro nglelelemye ni bi son nyu ma wa ayo nyu bawu a ni tu kpye zizi wa rji tie u bana kasran na
18 For he intended us to find great encouragement in these two unchangeable things, which make it impossible for God to prove false — we, I mean, who fled for safety where we might lay hold on the hope set before us.
a tie wa nitu kpyi ha wa bana kasran na bi tsro ndi irji nita bre tice u kita wa ki tsutsu kafe wrji u rii kie sen ngble ndi nji yo sron mbu wa asi gben taa
19 This hope is a very anchor for our souls, secure and strong, and it ‘reaches into the Sanctuary that lies behind the Curtain,’
kie he ni yo soron nawaa ahe too rai wa ba klia nda njaryi wa kimayi ni rihi nimi kogon plia
