¹Now faith is assurance of [things] hoped for, a conviction of things not seen.

¹So si o pachamos? Si te zhanas kai so godi mangas avela, ai azhukeras pala leste, numa nashti dikhas les inker.

²For therein the elders had witness borne to them.

²Le shave le Devleske kai traiisarde de but bersh palpale sas le pachamos.

³By faith we understand that the worlds have been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen hath not been made out of things which appear.

³Pala pachamos ame haliaras kai e lumia sas kerde pala E Vorba le Devleski. Le dieli kai dikhas nas kerde anda le dieli kai chi dichile.

⁴By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had witness borne to him that he was righteous, God bearing witness in respect of his gifts: and through it he being dead yet speaketh.

⁴Pala pachamos o Abel kerdia vorta angla Del ai andia ek podarka, ek sakrifis ka Del kai sas mai mishto sar le Cainosko. Plachaiales O Del. O Del premisardia o Abel ai premisardia leski podarki. O Abel mulo, numa pala lesko pachamos wo del duma amende vi adies.

⁵By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God translated him: for he hath had witness borne to him that before his translation he had been well-pleasing unto God:

⁵Pale pachamos o Enoch sas lino ando rhaio bi te merel. Strazo nas kotse ke O Del lino les. Le manush nashtisarde te arakhen les ke sas lino lendar. Mai anglal te kerdiolpe kadia diela O Del phendias, 'Plachaiama le Enochosa.'

⁶And without faith it is impossible to be well-pleasing [unto him]; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that seek after him.

⁶O manush nashti plachal O Del te nas les pachamos, vari kon kai avel ka Del trobul te pachal kai wo si. Wo musai zhanel kai O Del del so si shinadia kodoleske kai roden leske.

⁷By faith Noah, being warned [of God] concerning things not seen as yet, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

⁷Pala pachamos o Noah, kana ashundia so phendia O Del pala terhara wo kerdia ek baro barzha pala leski vitsa darasa. O Del phendia leske so si te kerdiol. Lesko pachamos kerdia les te ashunel ka Del ai kerel so O Del phendia leske. Leski vitsa sas skepime katar e martia ke wo kerdia e barzha. Pala lesko pachamos, o Noah doshardia e lumia ai avilo vorta le Devlesa ke sas les pachamos ando Del.

⁸By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out unto a place which he was to receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

⁸Pala pachamos o Abraham kerdia sar manglia O Del kana O Del akhardia les te mekel lesko kher ai zhal dur ando aver them kai O Del shinadia to del les. Wo Meklia lesko kher bi te zhanel kay zhal.

⁹By faith he became a sojourner in the land of promise, as in a [land] not his own, dwelling in tents, with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:

⁹Lesko pachamos ando Del zhutisardia les kana traiilas sar ek streino ando aver them kai O Del shinadia les. O Isak ai o Iakov premisarde so sas shinado ka Abraham. Savorhe traiinas ande le tseri andek than.

¹⁰for he looked for the city which hath the foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

¹⁰Numa o Abraham azhukerelas pala o foro kai si les zurale fundania, kai O Del phenel sar te kerel les, ai wo kerel les.

¹¹By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive seed when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised:

¹¹Pala pachamos e Sarah sas la ek glata kana sas pra phuri te avela la ek glata. Sas la pachamos te pachal kai O Del kerela so wo shinadia.

¹²wherefore also there sprang of one, and him as good as dead, [so many] as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the sand, which is by the sea-shore, innumerable.

¹²O Abraham sas pra phuro te avela iek glata leste, numa katar o Abraham avili ek vitsa antrego, kai sas but miliwoia zhene sar le chererhaia ando cheri ai sar e chishai pe berego, nashti te jinas len ke kadia but si.

¹³These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

¹³Sa kadala zhene mule ai sas le pachamos ando Del. Numa chi premisarde so O Del shinadia lenge. Won dikhle angle karing ka le dieli O Del shinadia lenge ai raduime sas. Won zhanenas ke sas streinuria katse. Kadia phuv sas lengo kher.

¹⁴For they that say such things make it manifest that they are seeking after a country of their own.

¹⁴Le manush kai phenen kadala vorbi sikaven kai azhukeren pala aver them kai si pengo.

¹⁵And if indeed they had been mindful of that [country] from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return.

¹⁵Won chi gindin pa o them kai mekle, te gindinas pa o them, amborim mangenas te zhan palpale.

¹⁶But now they desire a better [country], that is, a heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God; for he hath prepared for them a city.

¹⁶Numa won mangenas o them kai si mai mishto. Ai O Del nai lazhal te avel akhardo lengo Del. Wo lashardia ek foro lenge.

¹⁷By faith Abraham, being tried, offered up Isaac: yea, he that had gladly received the promises was offering up his only begotten [son];

¹⁷Pala pachamos o Abraham kana sas zumado, dia pesko shav o Isak sar ek podarka po altari ka Del. O Del shinadia ke wo sas te del o Abraham ek shav, ai inker o Abraham mangelas te kerel so manglia O Del lestar, ai del lesko shav ka Del.

¹⁸even he to whom it was said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called:

¹⁸O Del phendia ka Abraham, "Chi vitsa avela katar o Isak."

¹⁹accounting that God [is] able to raise up, even from the dead; from whence he did also in a figure receive him back.

¹⁹O Abraham pachaiape kai O Del sai vazdelpe lesko shav palpale ka traio, ai sai phenas kai o Abraham premisardia les palpale katar e martia.

²⁰By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.

²⁰Pala pachamos O Isak swuntosardia o Iakov ai o Esau anda so avela mai angle.

²¹By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, [leaning] upon the top of his staff.

²¹Pala pachamos o Iakov kana merelas, phendia kai o lashimos avela po swako shav le Josefoske kana wo merelas. Kana rhugilaspe ka Del wo lia o rhai te inkerel les.

²²By faith Joseph, when his end was nigh, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.

²²Pala pachamos o Josef kana merelas, dia duma pa le Zhiduvuria ai kana sas te zhantar anda o them Egypt, ai phendia lenge te gropon lesko stato kai zhan.

²³By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw he was a goodly child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.

²³Pala pachamos, o Moses kana sas biandilo, lesko dat ai leski dei garade les trin shon, ke won dikhle ke wo sas ek shukar glata; ai nas daran katar o amperato kana wo phendia te mudaren sa le tsinorhe shave.

²⁴By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;

²⁴Pala pachamos o Moses chi mangela te avel akhardo o shav le Pharoahoski shei kana barilo.

²⁵choosing rather to share ill treatment with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;

²⁵Wo alosardia te chinuil le narodosa le Devleske, de sar te plachal le dieli le bezexenge.

²⁶accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt: for he looked unto the recompense of reward.

²⁶Wo gindisardia ke sas mai mishto te chinuil pala so shinadia O Kristo sar te lel sa o barimos le themesko, Egypt. Wo dikhelas po Del ai wo lela leski pochin katar O Del.

²⁷By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.

²⁷Pala pachamos o Moses gelotar andai Egypt. Wo nas daral katar o amperato kai sas xoliariko. O Moses kerdia vorta angla Del, ai dikhelas O Del angle leste.

²⁸By faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.

²⁸Pala pachamos o Moses garadia o Baro Dies le Zhidovongo ai te mudaren ek bakro sar O Del phendia lenge, ai te thon o rat opral le vudara lenge khera, antunchi o angelo le martiako nashtisardia te mudarel o pervo shav kai sas biandilo ando swako kher.

²⁹By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were swallowed up.

²⁹Pala pachamos le Zhiduvuria nakhle inchal e Maria Loli sar sas e phuv shuki. Kana le manush le Egyptanoske zumade te nakhen inchal, mudarde sas le paiesa.

³⁰By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been compassed about for seven days.

³⁰Pala pachamos le ziduria le forosko Jericho pele tele palal le Zhiduvuria phirade kruglom o foro pala efta diesa.

³¹By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with them that were disobedient, having received the spies with peace.

³¹Pala pachamos e Rahab ek kurvia nas mudardia lensa kai chi kerde sar mangel O Del. Woi zhutisardia le manush kai avile chordanes te dikhen o them.

³²And what shall I more say? for the time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah; of David and Samuel and the prophets:

³²So mai phenav? Nas dosta vriama te phenav pa Gideon, ai o Barak, ai o Samson, ai o Jephthah, ai o David, ai o Samuel, ai sa le profeturia.

³³who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

³³Sas pala lengo pachamos kai nirisarde le marimata andel aver thema. Won poronchinas mishto, premisarde so O Del shinadia lenge, won phandade le muia le lioneske,

³⁴quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, waxed mighty in war, turned to flight armies of aliens.

³⁴ai aterdile e iag kai phabolas, won nashle andal sabia ai nas mudarde, kana won sas naswale vai kovle won pele sas kerde zurale. Zurale sas ando marimos. Won kerde le manush kai marenas andal aver thema te nashen khere.

³⁵Women received their dead by a resurrection: and others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:

³⁵Pala pachamos uni zhuvlia premisarde lenge mule palpale ka traio. Uni alosarde te aven marde de sar te zhan ivia, ke chi mangle te zhan dur katar O Del. Anda kodia, won avena vazdine ka o traio kai si mai mishto.

³⁶and others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:

³⁶Le manus marenas mui lendar, ai marde uni anda lende, uni sas thodine ande temnitsa ai uni sas phandade le lantsonsa.

³⁷they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tempted, they were slain with the sword: they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated

³⁷Uni sas mudarde le baxensa. Uni sas shinde ande kotora. Won sas zumade. Uni sas mudarde le sabiensa. Won line pe lende le morchi katar le bakre ai buzhne ai nai le kanchi, won sas bokhale ai naswale, nas dosta lenge, won phiravenaspe ande pusta ai pel plaia, garade andel gropuria. Won sas pra lashe pala kadia lumia.

³⁸(of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts and mountains and caves, and the holes of the earth.

³⁹Sas pala lengo pachamos ke O Del sas plachaiales lensa. Numa chi premisarde so Del shinadia lenge.

³⁹And these all, having had witness borne to them through their faith, received not the promise,

⁴⁰O Del si les vari so mai mishto amenge. Kodola manush nashti kerdile vorta bi amensa.

⁴⁰God having provided some better thing concerning us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
