< Hebrews 4 >

1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
Afei esiane sɛ bɔhyɛ a ɛfa ne mu home ho no da so gyina hɔ nti, momma yɛnhwɛ yiye na mo mu bi antɔ sin wɔ mu.
2 For to us was the gospel preached, as well as to them: but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
Efisɛ wɔaka asɛmpa no akyerɛ yɛn sɛnea wɔka kyerɛ wɔn no. Nanso wɔammu asɛm a wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn no, efisɛ wɔn a wotiee no no annye anni.
3 For we who have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
Na yɛn a yɛagye adi no nko ara na yɛkɔ saa ɔhome no mu sɛnea Onyankopɔn aka se, “Enti mifi mʼabufuw mu ka ntam se, ‘Wɔrenhyɛn asase a anka mede wɔn rekɔ so no mu da.’” Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi de, nanso efi bere a ɔbɔɔ wiase no, na wawie ɔhome dwumadi no dedaw.
4 For he spoke in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God rested the seventh day from all his works.
Na Kyerɛwsɛm no mu baabi wɔ hɔ a wɔka biribi fa da a ɛto so ason no ho se, “Da a ɛto so ason no, Onyankopɔn home fii ne nnwuma nyinaa mu.”
5 And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.
Wɔkaa saa asɛm koro yi ara bio se, “Wɔrenhyɛn asase a anka mede wɔn rekɔ so no mu da.”
6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter into it, and they to whom it was first preached entered not because of unbelief:
Wɔn a wodii kan tee Asɛmpa no annya saa ahome no, efisɛ wɔannye anni. Afoforo bi nso wɔ hɔ a wama wɔn kwan sɛ wonnya ɔhome no.
7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
Enti Onyankopɔn aka se wayi da bi ato hɔ a wɔfrɛ no “Nnɛ.” Mfe bebree akyi no, ɔnam Dawid so kaa wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu se, “Nnɛ, sɛ mote Onyankopɔn nne a mummpirim mo koma.”
8 For if Joshua had given them rest, then he would not afterward have spoken of another day.
Sɛ Yosua dii nnipa no anim de wɔn kɔɔ Onyankopɔn home mu a, anka akyiri no Onyankopɔn anka da foforo ho asɛm.
9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
Sɛnea ɛte no, ɔhome da so wɔ hɔ ma Onyankopɔn nkurɔfo, sɛnea Onyankopɔn homee da a ɛto so ason no.
10 For he that hath entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
Obiara a ɔbɛhome wɔ Onyankopɔn mu no bɛhome afi nʼankasa ne nnwuma mu, sɛnea Onyankopɔn home fii ne nnwuma mu no.
11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Enti momma yɛmmɔ yɛn ho mmɔden na yɛatumi akɔ Onyankopɔn home mu. Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛn mu bi yɛ asoɔden sɛnea wɔyɛɛ asoɔden a enti wɔankɔ mu no.
12 For the word of God is living, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Onyankopɔn asɛm yɛ nkwa, na ahoɔden wɔ mu. Ɛyɛ nnam sen afoa anofanu. Ehwirew mu kosi sɛ ɛpaapae honhom ne ɔkra, apɔw so ne hon mu. Ɛyɛ koma nsusuwii ne adwene temmufo.
13 Neither is there any creature that is hidden in his sight: but all things are naked and opened to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Biribiara nni hɔ a wɔde sie Onyankopɔn ma ɛyɛ yiye. Abɔde mu biribiara da nʼanim na ɔno na ɛsɛ sɛ yebu ho akontaa kyerɛ.
14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that hath passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
Ɛno nti, momma yenso gyidi a yɛka ho asɛm no mu den. Efisɛ yɛwɔ Ɔsɔfopanyin kɛse wɔ Onyankopɔn anim.
15 For we have not an high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but who was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.
Yenni Ɔsɔfopanyin bi a ontumi nhwɛ yɛn mmerɛwyɛ ho nhu yɛn mmɔbɔ. Yɛwɔ obi a wɔasɔ no ahwɛ wɔ akwan ahorow nyinaa so sɛ yɛn ara, nanso wanyɛ bɔne.
16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Momma yensi yɛn bo na yɛmmra Onyankopɔn ahengua a adom wɔ mu no anim, na ɛno na ɛbɛma yɛanya ahummɔbɔ ne adom a ɛbɛboa yɛn wɔ bere a ɛsɛ mu.
