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

¹Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.

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

²For by this, the elders obtained testimony.

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.

³By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.

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.

⁴By faith, Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks.

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.'

⁵By faith, Enoch was taken away, so that he wouldn’t see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God.

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.

⁶Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

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.

⁷By faith, Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, or, reverence prepared a ship for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

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.

⁸By faith, Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he went.

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.

⁹By faith, he lived as an alien 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.

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

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

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.

¹¹By faith, even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised.

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.

¹²Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.

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.

¹³These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen TR adds “and being convinced of” them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

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

¹⁴For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.

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

¹⁵If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.

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

¹⁶But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

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.

¹⁷By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only son;

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

¹⁸even he to whom it was said, “In Isaac will your seed be called”; Genesis 21:12

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.

¹⁹concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.

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

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

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.

²¹By faith, Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.

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.

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

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.

²³By faith, Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.

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

²⁴By faith, Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,

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

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

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.

²⁶accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

²⁹By faith, they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.

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

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

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.

³¹By faith, Rahab the prostitute, didn’t perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.

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.

³²What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets;

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,

³³who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Daniel 6:22-23

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.

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.

³⁵Women received their dead by resurrection. 1 Kings 17:17-23; 2 Kings 4:32-37 Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

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

³⁶Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.

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.

³⁷They were stoned. 2 Chronicles 24:20-21 They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. Jeremiah 26:20-23; 1 Kings 19:10 They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated
