¹ Saxleen ci bëggante ni ay bokk.

¹Let brotherly love remain;

² Buleen fàttee teral ñiy ñëw ci yéen, ndaxte ñenn ñi, bi ñu ko defee, teral nañu ay malaaka te xamuñu ko.

²of the hospitality be not forgetful, for through this unawares certain did entertain messengers;

³ Fàttalikuleen ñi ñu tëj, mel ni su ñu leen boole woon ak ñoom tëjaale. Fàttalikuleen ñi ñuy sonal, ni su ngeen bokkoon ak ñoom coono.

³be mindful of those in bonds, as having been bound with them, of those maltreated, as also yourselves being in the body;

⁴ Na ñépp fullaal séy, te lalu séy bi bañ a taq sobe, ndaxte Yàlla dina àtte ñu yàqu ñi ak njaalookat yi.

⁴honourable [is] the marriage in all, and the bed undefiled, and whoremongers and adulterers God shall judge.

⁵ Buleen bëgge; deeleen doylu, ndaxte Yàlla ci boppam nee na:«Duma la wacc mukk,duma la wor mukk,»

⁵Without covetousness the behaviour, being content with the things present, for He hath said, `No, I will not leave, no, nor forsake thee,`

⁶ ba tax nu am kóoluteg wax ne:«Boroom bi moo di sama ndimbal;duma ragal dara.Lu ma nit manal?»

⁶so that we do boldly say, `The Lord [is] to me a helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.`

⁷ Fàttalikuleen seen njiit, yi leen yégal kàddug Yàlla. Nemmikuleen li seen dund meññ te roy seen ngëm.

⁷Be mindful of those leading you, who did speak to you the word of God, whose faith — considering the issue of the behaviour — be imitating,

⁸ Yeesu Kirist du soppiku mukk; ni mu mel démb ak tey lay mel ba fàww.

⁸Jesus Christ yesterday and to-day the same, and to the ages;

⁹ Buleen nangu mukk ñu fàbbi leen ak njàngale yu bare yu wuute ak yu jëkk ya. Li gën moo di xol yi jële seen doole ci yiwu Yàlla, te bañ koo jële ci sàrt yi jëm ci ñam, yi jariñul dara ñi koy sàmm.

⁹with teachings manifold and strange be not carried about, for [it is] good that by grace the heart be confirmed, not with meats, in which they who were occupied were not profited;

¹⁰ Am nanu sarax boo xam ne ñiy jaamu Yàlla ci tàntu màggalukaayu bànni Israyil sañuñu koo lekk.

¹⁰we have an altar, of which to eat they have no authority who the tabernacle are serving,

¹¹ Ndaxte saraxalekat bu mag bi dafay yóbbu deretu mala yi ca bérab bu sell-baa-sell ni sarax ngir dindi bàkkaar yi, waaye yàpp wi dees na ko lakk ca gannaaw dal ba.

¹¹for of those beasts whose blood is brought for sin into the holy places through the chief priest — of these the bodies are burned without the camp.

¹² Looloo tax Yeesu sonn ca gannaaw dëkk ba, ngir sellal mbooloo mi ak deretam.

¹²Wherefore, also Jesus — that he might sanctify through [his] own blood the people — without the gate did suffer;

¹³ Nanu ko fekki nag ca gannaaw dal ba, bokk ak moom toroxte ga.

¹³now, then, may we go forth unto him without the camp, his reproach bearing;

¹⁴ Amunu fii ci àddina dëkk bu sax ba fàww, waaye nu ngi wut dëkk biy ñëw.

¹⁴for we have not here an abiding city, but the coming one we seek;

¹⁵ Kon nag nanu jaare ci Yeesu, tey dëkk ci jébbal Yàlla sarax bu koy màggal, maanaam sant turam.

¹⁵through him, then, we may offer up a sacrifice of praise always to God, that is, the fruit of lips, giving thanks to His name;

¹⁶ Buleen fàtte di def lu baax ak di sédde ci seen alal, ndaxte sarax yu mel noonu ñoo neex Yàlla.

¹⁶and of doing good, and of fellowship, be not forgetful, for with such sacrifices God is well-pleased.

¹⁷ Déggal-leen seeni njiit te topp seen ndigal, ndaxte ñoo leen di sàmm te ñooy layoo seen liggéey. Kon nangeen leen déggal, ngir ñu man a def seen liggéey ak xol bu sedd, bañ cee am naqar, ndaxte loolu du leen amal njariñ.

¹⁷Be obedient to those leading you, and be subject, for these do watch for your souls, as about to give account, that with joy they may do this, and not sighing, for this [is] unprofitable to you.

¹⁸ Deeleen nu ñaanal. Wóor nanu ne, sunu xel dal na, ndaxte danoo bëgg a rafet ci lépp lu nuy def.

¹⁸Pray for us, for we trust that we have a good conscience, in all things willing to behave well,

¹⁹ Maa ngi leen di xiir, ngeen ñaanal nu, ba tuur ci seen ñaq, ngir ma yiwiku, ba dellusi ci yéen ci ni mu gën a gaawe.

¹⁹and more abundantly do I call upon [you] to do this, that more quickly I may be restored to you.

²⁰ Na leen Yàlla Boroom jàmm, mi dekkal sunu Boroom Yeesu, di Sàmm bu mag bi, ci darajay deret, ji fas kóllëre gu sax,

²⁰And the God of the peace, who did bring up out of the dead the great shepherd of the sheep — in the blood of an age-during covenant — our Lord Jesus,

²¹ matal ci lépp lu baax, ba ngeen man a def coobareem, di jëfe ci nun li neex ci moom, mu jaarale lépp ci Yeesu Kirist, moom mi yelloo ndam ba fàww. Amiin.

²¹make you perfect in every good work to do His will, doing in you that which is well-pleasing before Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom [is] the glory — to the ages of the ages! Amen.

²² Kon nag bokk yi, maa ngi leen di ñaan, ngeen tegoo baatu yedd yooyu, ndaxte dama leen a bind ci lu gàtt.

²²And I entreat you, brethren, suffer the word of the exhortation, for also through few words I have written to you.

²³ Xamleen ne, Timote sunu mbokk, génn na kaso. Su dikkee léegi, dinaa ànd ak moom, seetsi leen.

²³Know ye that the brother Timotheus is released, with whom, if he may come more shortly, I will see you.

²⁴ Nuyul-leen ma seen njiit yépp ak gaayi Yàlla yépp. Waa Itali ñu ngi leen di nuyu.

²⁴Salute all those leading you, and all the saints; salute you doth those from Italy:

²⁵ Na yiwu Yàlla nekk ànd ak yéen ñépp.

²⁵the grace [is] with you all! Amen.
