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 —
Kuom mano koro waweuru puonj michakogo ngʼeyo wach Kristo, to wadhiuru nyime mondo wadok joma otegno. Ok owinjore mondo wachak puonjou manyien weche michakogo bedo ja-Kristo, kaka lokruok weyo timbe matero ji e tho to gi yie kuom Nyasaye;
2 teaching concerning baptisms and the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead and a final judgment. (aiōnios g166)
kod puonj kuom kit batiso mopogore opogore, kata kuom keto lwedo ewi ji, kata kuom wach chier aa kuom joma otho, kata kuom bura mabiro. (aiōnios g166)
3 Yes and, with God’s help, we will.
To wabiro timo kamano, ka Nyasaye oyie.
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,
Nikech jomaler mar Nyasaye oserienynegi mi obilo mich mar polo kendo obedo e lalruok achiel gi Roho Maler;
5 and learned to appreciate the beauty of the Divine Message, and the new powers of the Coming Age — (aiōn g165)
joma osebilo ber mar Wach Nyasaye, mi ongʼeyo teko mar piny mabiro, (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.
kopodho moweyo yie margi, to ok nyal konygi mi gilokre kendo, nikech gikelo chandruok kuomgi giwegi kuom guro Wuod Nyasaye e msalaba nyadiriyo, ka gimiyo ji chaye ratiro.
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;
Lowo ma mwonyo pi koth mochwe kuome kendo machiego cham manyalo konyo joma opure, ema yudo gweth Nyasaye.
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.
To ka bangʼ yudo koth maber to ochiego mana kuthe gi buya to oonge tich, kendo ochiegni yudo kwongʼ. Giko ibiro wangʼe e mach.
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.
Kata wawuoyo kama, osiepewa mwageno, to wan gi gigeno kuomu kuom gik mabeyo moloyo, ma gin olembe mabeyo ma warruok nyago.
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.
Nyasaye en ja-adiera, omiyo wiye ok nyal wil gi tich maru kaachiel gihera musenyiso kukonyo joge, kendo ma pod udhi nyime kutimo.
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.
Wadwaro ni ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu odhi nyime katimo maber nyaka giko, eka ubed gi ratiro mar yudo gik mugeno yudo.
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.
Ok wadwar ni ubed jo-samuoyo to wadwaro ni ulu kit joma yudo gik mosingi nikech giyie kendo gitimo kinda.
13 When God gave his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater by whom he could swear, he swore by himself.
Ka Nyasaye notimo singruok gi Ibrahim to nokwongʼore gi nyinge owuon, nikech ne onge ngʼat maduongʼ mohinge monyalo kwongʼore gi nyinge,
14 His words were — ‘I will assuredly bless thee and increase thy numbers.’
nowacho niya, “Abiro gwedhi adier, kendo abiro miyi nyikwayo mangʼeny.”
15 And so, after patiently waiting, Abraham obtained the fulfilment of God’s promise.
Omiyo bangʼe Ibrahim noyudo gima Nyasaye nosingore ni nomiye bangʼ rito gi kinda.
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.
Joma timo singruok kwongʼore gi nying joma oloyogi gi duongʼ, kendo kwongʼruok ma gitimo golo kiawa moro amora e kind joma otimo winjruokgo.
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.
Emomiyo ka Nyasaye ne dwaro lero tiend chenroge ma ok lokre ne joma yudo gweth mag singruok mage, noguro singruokneno gi kwongʼruok.
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.
Notimo kamano mondo, kuom gik moko ariyo, tiende ni singruok gi kwongʼruok, ma ok nyal lokore kendo ma ok nyal miyo Nyasaye bet ja-miriambo, wayud gweth mogundho, wan mwasetony koro wayudo jip motegno kwamako geno ma wan-go matek.
19 This hope is a very anchor for our souls, secure and strong, and it ‘reaches into the Sanctuary that lies behind the Curtain,’
Genowano osiro chunywa ka loch mogur motegno ma ok yiengni kendo ma gimoro ok nyal donje mi kethi. Odonjo nyaka ei kama ler mar lemo manie tok pasia,
