Cibraaniyada 11
1 Rumaysadku waa hubaasha waxyaalaha la rajeeyo, iyo xaqiiqaynta waxyaalaha aan la arkin.
It is because people trust [God] that they are sure that they will receive the things that they confidently expect [God to give them]. They are also certain [that they will see those things], though no one sees them yet.
2 Waayo, saasaa loogu markhaati furay waayeelladii.
It was because our ancestors trusted in God that they pleased him.
3 Rumaysad ayaynu ku garanaynaa in duniyooyinka lagu abuuray erayga Ilaah, sidaas daraaddeed waxa la arko lagama samayn waxa muuqda. (aiōn g165)
It is because we trust in God that we understand that he formed the universe by commanding [it to exist]. The result is that the things that we see were not made from things that already existed. (aiōn g165)
4 Haabiil rumaysad ayuu Ilaah ugu bixiyey allabari aad uga wanaagsan kii Qaabiil, sidaas daraaddeed waxaa loogu markhaati furay inuu xaq yahay, Ilaahna waa ka markhaati furay hadiyadihiisii. Saas daraaddeed isagoo dhintay ayuu weli hadlaa.
It was because [Adam’s son] Abel trusted God that he sacrificed something better to God than what [his older brother] Cain offered to God. Because Abel did that, when God spoke well about what Abel sacrificed, God declared that Abel was righteous. And although Abel is dead, we still learn from him [about trusting God].
5 Enoog rumaysad baa kor loogu qaaday si uusan dhimasho u arag, lamana helin, maxaa yeelay, Ilaah baa isagii qaaday, waayo, intaan kor loo qaadin ka hor ayaa markhaati loo furay inuu Ilaah ka farxiyey.
It was because Enoch believed [God that God] took him [up to heaven]. The result was that he did not die. No one found him, because he was taken up {[God] had removed him} from the earth [to heaven]. Before [God] took him away, [he] testified that Enoch pleased him well.
6 Oo rumaysadla'aantiis ma suurtowdo in isaga laga farxiyo, taas aawadeed kan Ilaah u yimaadaa waa inuu rumaysto inuu jiro oo uu yahay kan u abaalguda kuwa isaga doondoona.
It is possible for people to please God only if they trust God, because anyone who wants to come to God must first believe that God exists and that he rewards those who seek [to know] him.
7 Nuux oo Ilaah uga digay waxyaalo aan weli la arkin ayaa cabsaday, oo rumaysad buu ku diyaariyey doonni in reerkiisu ku badbaado, sidaasuu dunida u xukumay oo ku noqday mid dhaxla xaqnimada rumaysadka ku timaada.
It was because Noah trusted [God] that after he was warned by God {after [God] warned him} about [a flood that] had not yet happened, Noah [showed that he] revered God by building a huge ship to save his family. By doing that, he [showed all the people who did not believe him] [MTY] [that they deserved to be condemned] {[that God would] condemn them}. He was someone whom God declared to be righteous because of his trusting in God.
8 Ibraahim kolkii loo yeedhay, rumaysad buu ku addeecay inuu tago meeshuu ku heli lahaa dhaxalka, wuuna tegey isagoo aan garanaynin meeshuu ku socdo.
It was because Abraham trusted God that when he was told to go {when [God] told him to go}, he obeyed [God], he left [his own country], and went to a place that God would give him. Abraham left his own country, even though he did not know where he would be going.
9 Rumaysad buu ku degganaa dhulkii loo ballanqaaday sidii dhul qalaad, wuxuuna taambuugyo la degganaa Isxaaq iyo Yacquub oo ahaa kuwii la dhaxlay isku ballan.
It was because Abraham trusted God that he lived as though he was a foreigner in the land that [God] had promised to him. Abraham lived in tents, and his son Isaac and his grandson Jacob did also. God promised to give to Isaac and Jacob the same things that he promised to give Abraham.
10 Waayo, wuxuu filanayay magaalo aasaas leh oo kan dhisay oo sameeyey uu Ilaah yahay.
Abraham was waiting to live in a city [in heaven] that would exist forever [MET]. It was a city that God is building [DOU].
11 Saarah qudheedu rumaysad bay ku heshay xoog ay ku uuraysato, oo iyadoo dhaaftay wakhtigii dhalmada ayay dhashay, waayo, waxay ku tirisay ku aamin ah kii u ballanqaaday.
It was because Abraham trusted God that God gave Abraham strength so that he [was] able to produce a son. Even though his wife Sarah was past the age [when women bear children], [God] promised [that he would give her a son], and Abraham considered that God would do what he promised to do.
12 Sidaas daraaddeedna waxaa mid sidii nin dhintay oo kale ah ka dhashay dad u badan sida xiddigaha cirka iyo sida cammuudda badda xeebteeda taal oo aan la tirin karin.
So, although Abraham was also too old to have children, so many people descended from that one man that they were as numerous as the stars in the sky and are as countless as the grains of sand along the seashore, [just like God promised him].
13 Kuwaasu kulligood rumaysad bay ku wada dhinteen, iyagoo aan helin waxyaalihii loo ballanqaaday, laakiin meel fog bay ka arkeen oo way aqbaleen, oo waxay qirteen inay dhulka ku ahaayeen shisheeyayaal iyo dad sodcaal ah.
It was while they still trusted in God that all those people died. Even though they had not yet received the things that God had promised to give them, [it was as though] they saw those things in a distance. They were glad [to know] about what God promised. It was as though they admitted that they were not from this earth, but that they were only here temporarily.
14 Waayo, kuwa waxyaalahan oo kale yidhaahdaa waxay muujiyaan inay doondoonayaan waddan kooda ah.
As for those people who talk like that, they clearly show that they long for [a place that will become] their true native land.
15 Oo hadday xusuusnaayeen waddankii ay ka baxeen way heli lahaayeen wakhti ay ku noqdaan.
If they had been thinking about [that place being] the place from which they had come, they would have taken the opportunity to return there.
16 Laakiin imminka waxay aad u doonayaan waddan ka wanaagsan oo ah jannada, sidaas daraaddeed Ilaah ka xishoon maayo in loogu yeedho Ilaahood, waayo, wuxuu iyaga u diyaariyey magaalo.
But, instead, they desired a better [place in which to live]; that is, they desired [a home] in heaven. So God has prepared a city for them to live [with him], and he is pleased [LIT] for them to say that he is their God.
17 Ibraahim kolkii la jirrabay, rumaysad buu Isxaaq allabari ahaan ugu bixiyey. Kii ballamada aqbalay ayaa wuxuu bixinayay wiilkiisii keliyaha,
It was because Abraham trusted [God] that he [was ready to] kill his son Isaac as a sacrifice when [God] tested him. This same man to whom [God] promised [to give] ([a son/many descendants]) was going to sacrifice [that same son], the only son [whom his own wife had borne]!
18 in kastoo lagu yidhi, Kuwa Isxaaq ka farcama ayaa farcankaaga loogu yeedhi doonaa.
It was to Abraham that God said, “It is [only] from Isaac that I will consider your family to descend.”
19 Wuxuu ku tirinayay in Ilaah ka kicin karo xataa kuwii dhintay; oo sida masaal oo kale ayuu isagii uga helay kuwii dhintay.
Abraham considered that [to fulfill that promise], God could make [Isaac] live again [even if] he had died [after Abraham sacrificed him]! The result was that when Abraham did receive Isaac back [after God told him not to harm Isaac], it was as though he received him back even after he died.
20 Isxaaq rumaysad buu ugu duceeyey Yacquub iyo Ceesaw xagga waxyaalaha iman doona.
It was because Isaac trusted God that he [prayed that after he died, God would] bless [his] sons Jacob and Esau.
21 Yacquubna markuu dhimanayay rumaysad buu ugu duceeyey mid kasta oo wiilashii Yuusuf ka mid ah, oo Ilaahna wuu caabuday isagoo cuskanaya ushiisa guudkeeda.
It was because Jacob trusted God that, as he was dying, he [prayed that God would] bless each of the sons of [his own son Joseph]. He worshipped God as he leaned upon his walking stick [before he died].
22 Yuusufna markii dhimashadiisii dhowayd rumaysad buu kaga hadlay bixitinka reer binu Israa'iil, wuxuuna ka dardaarmay lafihiisa.
It was because Joseph trusted God that, when he was about to die [in Egypt], he anticipated the time when the Israelis would leave Egypt; and he instructed [that] his people [should carry] his bones [with them when they] ([left Egypt/returned to Canaan]).
23 Muusena markuu dhashay, waalidkiis rumaysad bay ku qariyeen saddex bilood, maxaa yeelay, waxay arkeen inuu ilmo wanaagsan yahay, kamana ay cabsan amarkii boqorka.
It was because Moses’ father and mother trusted God that they hid [their son] for three months shortly after he was born, because they saw that he was so beautiful. They were not afraid of [disobeying] what the king of Egypt had commanded, [namely, that all the Jewish male babies must be killed].
24 Muuse markuu weynaaday rumaysad buu ku diiday in loogu yeedho wiilkii gabadha Fircoon.
The daughter of the [king, whom they called] Pharaoh, [raised] Moses, but when he had grown up, it was because he trusted God that he refused to [accept the privileges that would have been his if people] considered that he was (the son of the king’s daughter/the king’s own grandson).
25 Oo wuxuu ka doortay in lala silciyo dadkii Ilaah intuu wakhti yar dembi ku farxi lahaa;
He decided that it was better for others to mistreat him for a time along with the Israeli people, than to temporarily enjoy living sinfully [in the King’s palace].
26 isagoo ku tirinaya cayda lagu caayo Masiixa aawadiis inay ka qiimo weyn tahay maalka Masar, waayo, wuxuu filanayay abaalgudka.
This is because he decided that if he suffered for the Messiah, it would be worth far more [in God’s sight] than his owning all the treasures of Egypt [that he would receive as Pharaoh’s heir. He decided that] because he looked forward to the time when [God would give him] an [eternal] reward.
27 Rumaysad buu kaga tegey Masar isagoo aan ka cabsanayn boqorka cadhadiisii, waayo, wuxuu u adkaystay sidii mid fiirinaya kan aan la arkin.
It was because he trusted God that he left Egypt. He was not afraid that the king would be angry [because of his doing that]. He (kept going/did not turn back) because [it was as though] he kept seeing [God], whom no one can see.
28 Rumaysad buu ku sameeyey Kormaridda iyo dhiigga rushayntiisii inuusan Baabbi'iyihii curadyadu iyaga taaban.
It was because Moses believed [that God would save his own people] that he instituted the [festival called] Passover. He did that [by commanding that the people should kill lambs and] sprinkle their blood [on their] doorposts. They did that in order that [the angel who] causes people to die would not kill [EUP] the oldest male Israelites [when he killed the oldest sons in each Egyptian family].
29 Rumaysad bay ku dhex mareen Badda Cas sidii dhul engegan, laakiin markay Masriyiintu saas isku dayeen, way liqday.
It was because they trusted God that [when] the [Israelite] people walked through [where] the Red Sea [had been, it was] as [though they walked] on dry land! But, when the [army of] Egypt also attempted to [cross that same water], they drowned, because [the sea came back and flooded them]!
30 Derbiyadii Yerixoo rumaysad bay ku dumeen kolkii toddoba maalmood lagu warwareegay dabadeed.
It was because the [Israeli] people trusted God that the walls around Jericho [city] collapsed, after the Israelis marched around the walls for seven days.
31 Dhilladii Raxab rumaysadkeedii aawadiis lama ay halligmin kuwii caasiyiinta ahaa, maxaa yeelay, basaasyadii bay nabad ku dhowaysay.
Rahab [had been] a prostitute, but because she trusted God, she did not perish with those [inside Jericho] who disobeyed [God. Joshua sent some spies] into the city [in order] to find ways to destroy it, but God saved her because she welcomed those spies [peaceably].
32 Oo maxaan kale oo idhaahdaa? Waayo, wakhtigu waa igu gaabnaan doonaa haddaan wax ka sheegi lahaa Gidcoon, iyo Baaraaq, iyo Samsoon, iyo Yeftaah, iyo Daa'uud, iyo Samuu'eel iyo nebiyadii.
I do not know what more I should say [RHQ] [about others who trusted in God]. It would take too much time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the [other] prophets.
33 Rumaysad bay kaga adkaadeen boqortooyooyin, oo xaqnimo ku sameeyeen, oo ballamo ku heleen, oo afafka libaaxyada ku xidheen,
It was because they trusted God that some of them [did great things for him]. Some conquered lands ruled by powerful men. Some ruled [Israel] and justly [punished those men and nations who rebelled against God]. Some obtained [from God] the things that he promised to give them [MTY].
34 oo xooggii dabka ku demiyeen, oo seefta afkeedii kaga baxsadeen, oo itaaldarradii kaga xoogaysteen, oo dagaal ku itaal weynaadeen, oo colalkii shisheeyaha ku eryeen.
Some forced lions to keep their mouths shut. Some escaped from being destroyed by fire. Some of those people escaped from [being killed with] a sword [MTY]. Some of those [people who trusted God] were made strong {became mighty} again after they had once been weak. Some became powerful when they fought wars. Some caused armies [that came from foreign lands] to run away from them.
35 Dumar baa waxay heleen kuwii ka dhintay iyagoo la sara kiciyey, qaar kalena waa la xanuujiyey ilaa ay ka dhinteen iyagoo aan aqbalin in la samatabbixiyo si ay ku gaadhaan sarakicid ka wanaagsan.
Some women [who trusted God] received [their relatives] back again when [God] ([made them live again after they had died/raised them from the dead]). But [others who trusted God] were tortured until they died. They were tortured because they refused to agree when [their captors said, “We will] release you [if you deny that you believe in God.” They refused to do that], because they wanted to live with God forever, which is better than [continuing to live on earth] after having almost died.
36 Qaar kalena waxay jirrabaad ahaan ula kulmeen majaajilo iyo karbaashid iyo weliba silsilado iyo xabbis.
Other [people who trusted God] were mocked; [some had their backs] cut [open by being struck] with leaded whips. Some were chained and put in prison.
37 Waana la dhagxiyey, miinshaarna waa lagu kala jeexay, waana la jirrabay, seefna waa lagu gowracay, wayna warwareegeen iyagoo qaba hargo idaad iyo hargo riyood, iyagoo caydh ah oo la dhibay oo la silciyey.
[Some of] those believers were stoned to death {People [killed some of those believers by] throwing stones at them}. Others were cut completely in two. Others were killed with swords. Others of these people who trusted God wandered around the land [wearing garments made only of] skins from sheep and goats. They did not have any money. They were continually oppressed and tormented {People continuously oppressed them and tormented them}.
38 Dunidu ma ay istaahilin iyagii. Waxayna warwareegi jireen lamadegaanka iyo buuraha iyo boholaha iyo godadka dhulka.
[The people on earth who caused those who trusted in God to suffer were so bad that] they did not deserve [to live with people who trusted God. Some who trusted God] wandered in deserts and on mountains. Some lived in caves and in other [large] holes in the ground.
39 Kuwaas oo dhammu, iyagoo loo markhaati furay rumaysadkoodii daraaddiis, ayaanay helin wixii loo ballanqaaday;
Although all these people were commended [by God] {[God] commended all these people} because they trusted him, God did not give them all that he promised them [while they were alive].
40 waayo, Ilaah wuxuu hore u arkay wax ka wanaagsan oo inagu saabsan, inaan la'aanteen iyaga kaamil laga dhigin.
God knew ahead of time that what he would give us and them [later] would be better than giving [them immediately what he promised]. What God intends is that only when they and we are together will we have all that God intends us to have.
