Abhaebrania 6
1 Kulwejo, chikasiga chinu chiigiye kubhwambilo ingulu ye misango ja Kristo, jichiile okubha no bhukalaliye okulubhilila obhukomee, chisige lindi kutao olufuka lwokuta okusoka mumilimu jinu jitana bhuanga ne likilisha ku Nyamuanga,
So let's not get stuck on the basic teachings about Christ, but let's progress to a more mature understanding. We don't need to go over again the ideas of repenting from what we used to do, about trusting in God—
2 nolo olufuka lwa meigisho go bhubhatijwa, nokubhatulako amabhoko, obhusuluko bhwa bhafu, na indamu ya kajanende. (aiōnios g166)
or teachings about baptism, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. (aiōnios g166)
3 Ne chikola bhinu labha Nyamuanga akekilisha.
So let's get on with it, as God gives us the opportunity!
4 Kulwokubha itakutulikana kubhanu bhabhwene obhelu okwamba, bhanu bhalabhile obhukonde bhwa mulwile, nibhakolwa kubha bhasangisi bha Mwoyo Mwelu,
It's impossible for those who once understood and experienced God's heavenly gift—who shared in receiving the Holy Spirit,
5 na bhanu bhalabhile obhukonde bhwa ligambo lya Nyamuanga nokubha na managa gomwanya gunu oguja, (aiōn g165)
who had known God's good word and the power of the coming age— (aiōn g165)
6 nibheya nibhagwa itakutulikana lindi okuta. Inu nikwainjuno ati bhamubhamba lindi Omwana wa Nyamuanga mala kabhili mumyoyo jebhwe, nibhamukola chinu cha kujimya abhwelu.
and then completely abandon God, for them to be brought back to repentance once more. They themselves have crucified the Son of God all over again and publicly humiliated him.
7 Kulwokubha amayalu ganu galamiye ingubha inu eigwa bhuli katungu ingulu yago, nisosha ebhiyambwa bhyakisi kubhanu bhakolele emilimu kumayalu, abhabhona amabhando kusoka ku Nyamuanga.
Land that has been watered by rain, and produces crops for those who farm it, has God's blessing.
8 Nawe ikebhula amawa na manyansi, itana nsonga lindi ili muntambala yo kwiimwa. Obhutelo bhwayo ni kusingalisibhwa.
But land that only produces weeds and thorns is worthless, and is about to be condemned. In the end all that can be done is to burn it.
9 Nolo kutyo echiloma kutyo, bhasani bhendwa, echibhabhwilaa amagambo gakisi ganu gabheile emwe na magambo ganu geile omwelulo.
But dear friends, we believe better of you and your salvation, even if we talk like this!
10 Kulwokubha Nyamuanga atali mulangilangi hata alabhilwe emilimu jemwe na kulwelyenda linu mwolesishe kulwalisina lyae, kulinu mwabhakolee abhekilisha naoli muchabhakolela.
God wouldn't be so unjust as to forget what you've done and the love you've shown for him by the care you've shown for fellow-believers—something you're still doing.
11 Neswe echenda muno bhuli umwi wemwe abhone okwelesha amanaga galiya galiya okukinga kubhutelo kwokwiikanya.
We want each of you to show the same kind of commitment, confident in God's hope until it's fulfilled.
12 Chitakwenda mubhe bhalenga, nawe mubhe bhamwi bhanu bhali nomulago gwo kulya omwandu kulwainjuno ye likilisha no kwikomesha.
Don't be spiritually lazy, but follow the example of those who through trusting in God and patience inherit what God has promised.
13 Kulwokubha Nyamuanga ejile amuyana Abrahamu omulago, alaiye kwo mwoyo gwae, kulwokubha atakalaiye kuundi wona wona unu ali mukulu okila omwene.
When God gave his promise to Abraham he could swear by no one greater so he took an oath on himself,
14 Aikile ati, “Nichimali enikuyana amabhando, enilwongesha olwibhulo lwao okukila olwo.”
saying, “I will definitely bless you, and multiply your descendants.”
15 Kulwainjila inu, Abrahamu alamiye chinu aliga alagilwe kwo kulinda kwo kwigumilisha.
And so, after patiently waiting, Abraham received the promise.
16 Kulwokubha abhanu abhalaila kumwene unu ali mukulu kukila abhene, nakubhene obhutelo bhwo okubhambala ni kubhutelo bhwo kugakumisha.
People swear on things that are greater than they are, and when they have some dispute the oath is taken as the final word on the matter.
17 Omwanya gunu Nyamuanga alamuye okwolesha kwa abhwelu kubhali bho mwandu bho mulago obhwiganilisha bhakisi bhunu bhutakuinduka, alyolesishe kwe chilailo.
That's why God wanted to demonstrate more clearly to those who would inherit the promise that he would never ever change his mind.
18 Akolele kutyo koleleki kwe bhinu bhibhili bhinu bhitakuinduka, bhinu kwibhyo Nyamuanga atakutula kwaika lubheyi, eswe bhanu chibhilimiye obhwiseleko chibhone okufungama okugwatilila kwa managa obhwiikanyo bhunu bhuteheyo imbele yeswe.
So by these two actions that can't be changed, and since it's impossible for God to lie, we can have total confidence, having run for safety to take hold of the hope God presented to us.
19 China obhwiikanyo bhunu lwakutyo insikyo yokusimbagilisha emyoyo jeswe, obhwiikanyo bhunu obhwingila mulubhaju lwa munda inyuma ya litambala.
This hope is our spiritual anchor—it's both certain and reliable, and it takes us past the curtain to the presence of God.
