1 Yàlla dige na ne, dina am ñu dugg ca noflaayam. Kon ndegam dige boobu mi ngi taxaw ba tey, moytuleen ba kenn ci yéen réer ba du dugg ci noflaay boobu.
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you might seem to have failed [of it].
2 Nun jot nanu xebaar bu baax bi ni ñoom, waaye kàddu, ga ñu déggoon, jariñu leen dara, ndaxte boolewuñu ci ngëm, ba ñu koy déglu.
2For indeed we have had glad tidings presented to us, even as they also; but the word of the report did not profit *them*, not being mixed with faith in those who heard.
3 Nun ñi gëm nag nooy dugg ci noflaayam, ni ko Mbind mi waxe:«Giñ naa kon ci sama mer ne:“Duñu dugg mukk ci sama noflaay,”» doonte sax liggéeyam bépp matoon na, ca ba mu sàkkee àddina ak léegi. Ci lu jëm ci juróom-ñaareelu fan ba,
3For we enter into the rest who have believed; as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest; although the works had been completed from [the] foundation of [the] world.
4 am na fu ñu wax ci Mbind mi ne:«Yàlla noppalu na ci liggéeyam béppca juróom-ñaareelu fan ba.»
4For he has said somewhere of the seventh [day] thus, And God rested on the seventh day from all his works:
5 Te it waxoon na ci baat yi nu jot a lim ba noppi:«Duñu dugg mukk ci sama noflaay.»
5and in this again, If they shall enter into my rest.
6 Kon am na ñu ci war a dugg ba tey. Te ñi jëkkoon a jot xebaar bu baax bi, dugguñu ci ndax seen déggadi.
6Seeing therefore it remains that some enter into it, and those who first received the glad tidings did not enter in on account of not hearkening to the word,
7 Noonu ay ati at gannaaw ga, Yàlla àppaat na beneen bés, def ko «tey jii,» bi mu waxee ci gémmiñu Daawuda ci baat yii ñu jot a lim:«Bu ngeen déggee tey jii baatu Yàlla bi,buleen dëgër bopp.»
7again he determines a certain day, saying, in David, 'To-day,' after so long a time; (according as it has been said before), To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
8 Su Yosuwe duggaloon sunu maam ya ca noflaayu Yàlla ba, kon gannaaw gi Yàlla du wax dara ci lu jëm ci beneen bés.
8For if Jesus had brought them into rest, he would not have spoken afterwards about another day.
9 Kon ba tey Yàllaa ngi dencal ay gaayam noflaay bu nirook noflaayu Yàlla ca juróom-ñaareelu fan ba.
9There remains then a sabbatism to the people of God.
10 Ndaxte képp ku mas a dugg ca noflaayu Yàlla, noppalu na ci ay jëfam ni Yàlla.
10For he that has entered into his rest, he also has rested from his works, as God did from his own.
11 Nanu farlu boog, ngir dugg ci noflaay boobu, ba kenn bañ a déggadi, ba daanu ni maam ya ca màndiŋ ma.
11Let us therefore use diligence to enter into that rest, that no one may fall after the same example of not hearkening to the word.
12 Xam nanu ne, kàddug Yàlla mi ngi dund te am na doole. Moo gën a ñaw jaasiy ñaari boor. Day dagg ba fa xol ak xel digaloo, ba fa yax yi ak yuq gi di teqalikoo, te man na àtte xalaat yi ak mébéti xol.
12For the word of God [is] living and operative, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and penetrating to [the] division of soul and spirit, both of joints and marrow, and a discerner of the thoughts and intents of [the] heart.
13 Te itam amul mbindeef mu man a nëbbu Yàlla, waaye lépp a ubbiku, ba ne fàŋŋ ci bëti ki nu war a àtte.
13And there is not a creature unapparent before him; but all things [are] naked and laid bare to his eyes, with whom we have to do.
14 Gannaaw am nanu saraxalekat bu mag-a-mag bu àgg ba ca kanam Yàlla, di Yeesu Doomu Yàlla ji, nanu jàpp bu dëgër yoon wi nu gëm.
14Having therefore a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast the confession.
15 Saraxalekat bu mag bi nu am, du ku mënul a bokk ak nun sunuy naqar; moom sax far jaar na ci nattu ni nun ci bépp fànn, waaye deful bàkkaar.
15For we have not a high priest not able to sympathise with our infirmities, but tempted in all things in like manner, sin apart.
16 Kon nag nanu am kóolute ci jege jalu Yàlla bu yiw ba, ngir jot yërmandeem ak yiwam, ngir mu wallu nu fu soxla taxawe.
16Let us approach therefore with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace for seasonable help.
