हिब्रू 11
1 अब विश्वासचाहिँ आशा गरिएका कुराहरूको बारेमा भएको निश्चयता हो; अहिलेसम्म नदेखेका घटनाहरूको बारेमा भएको प्रमाण हो ।
Now faith is being confident of what we hope for, convinced about things we do not see.
2 किनकि हाम्रा पुर्खाहरू तिनीहरूको विश्वासका निम्ति यसरी नै प्रमाणित भएका थिए ।
For by this, the people of old were attested.
3 विश्वासद्वारा हामी बुझ्न सक्छौँ, कि सारा विश्व परमेश्वरको आज्ञाद्वारा सृष्टि भएको थियो । त्यसकारण, जे देखिन्छन् ती देखिने कुराहरूबाट बनाइएका होइनन् । (aiōn g165)
By faith, we understand that the ages were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible. (aiōn g165)
4 विश्वासद्वारा नै हाबिलले कयिनले भन्दा उत्तम बलिदान चढाए । यसकारण, तिनी धर्मी हुन पुगे । यसरी, परमेश्वरप्रति तिनको भेटीको कारणले गर्दा तिनले सर्मथन पाए । त्यसैकारण, हाबिल मरे तापनि तिनी अझ बोलिरहेका छन् ।
By faith, Habeil offered to God a better sacrifice than Qayen, through which he was attested as righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and though he died he still speaks through it.
5 विश्वासद्वारा नै हनोक माथि उठाई लगिए र तिनले मृत्यु देखेनन् । “तिनी भेटिएनन्, किनकि परमेश्वरले तिनलाई उठाउनुभयो ।” कारण तिनी उठाइनुभन्दाअघि तिनले परमेश्वरलाई प्रसन्न पारेको प्रमाणित भएको थियो ।
By faith, Khenuk was taken away, so that he would not see death, "and he was not found, because God took him away." For before he was taken he was attested as having pleased God.
6 विनाविश्वास परमेश्वरलाई प्रसन्न पार्न असम्भव छ । किनकि जो परमेश्वरकहाँ आउँछ उसले परमेश्वर अस्तित्वमा हुनुहुन्छ भन्ने कुरामा विश्वास गर्नैपर्छ र उहाँलाई जसले खोज्छ त्यसले इनाम पाउनेछ भनी विश्वास गर्नुपर्छ ।
Now without 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.
7 विश्वासद्वारा नै नोआलाई अहिलेसम्म नदेखेका कुराहरूका बारेमा ईश्वरीय सन्देश दिइएको थियो । तिनले भक्तिमय सम्मानसाथ एउटा पानी जहाज बनाए र आफ्नो घरानालाई बचाए । यसो गरेर तिनले संसारलाई दोषी ठहराए र विश्वासअनुसार तिनी धार्मिकताका उत्तराधिकारी भए ।
By faith, Nukh, being warned about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared a box-shaped ship for the salvation of his household, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
8 अब्राहामलाई बोलाइँदा विश्वासद्वारा नै तिनले आज्ञापालन गरे र तिनी उत्तराधिकारको रूपमा पाउनुपर्ने ठाउँतिर गए । आफू कहाँ जाँदै छु भन्ने कुरा थाहै नपाए तापनि तिनी गए ।
By faith, Avraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he was going.
9 तिनी विश्वासद्वारा नै प्रतिज्ञाको देशमा एक परदेशीको रूपमा बसे । तिनी पालहरूमा इसहाक र याकूबसँगै उही प्रतिज्ञाको सङ्गी उत्तराधिकारीको रूपमा बसे ।
By faith, he sojourned in a land of promise, as a foreigner, living in tents with Iskhaq and Yaquv, the heirs with him of the same promise.
10 किनकि तिनले जगहरू भएको सहरलाई हेरिरहेका थिए, जुन सहरको रचनाकार र निर्माणकर्ता परमेश्वर स्वयम् हुनुहुन्छ ।
For he looked for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
11 सारा बाँझी भए तापनि अब्राहामले गर्भधारण गराउने शक्ति विश्वासद्वारा नै प्राप्त गरे । तिनी एकदमै वृद्ध भइसक्दा यसो भएको थियो । तिनीहरूलाई प्रतिज्ञा दिनुहुनेप्रति तिनीहरू विश्वासयोग्य भइरहे ।
By faith, even barren Sarah herself received power to conceive when she was past age, and gave birth, since she considered him faithful who had promised.
12 त्यसैकारण, मरेतुल्य यिनै एक जना मानिसबाट आकाशका असङ्ख्य तारा र समुद्री किनारका असङ्ख्य बालुवासरह सन्तानहरू जन्मिए, जसलाई गन्नै सकिँदैन ।
Therefore 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.
13 यी सबै प्रतिज्ञालाई प्राप्त नगरिकनै यिनीहरू सबैले टाढैबाट स्वागत गरे । पृथ्वीमा परदेशी र निर्वासितहरू मात्र हौँ भन्ने कुरा स्वीकार गर्दै तिनीहरू विश्वासमा नै मरे ।
These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were foreigners and temporary residents on the earth.
14 किनकि जसले यस्ता कुराहरू भन्दछन् तिनीहरूले एउटा स्वदेश खोजिरहेका छन् भन्ने कुरा स्पष्ट हुन्छ ।
For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
15 साँच्चै नै तिनीहरूले आफू निस्केर गएको देशका लागि सोचिरहेका भए, तिनीहरूले फर्केर जाने मौका पाउने थिए ।
If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.
16 तर तिनीहरू अझ उत्तम देश अर्थात् स्वर्गीय देशको चाहना गर्दछन् । त्यसकारण, परमेश्वर तिनीहरूका परमेश्वर हुन लजाउनुहुन्न, किनकि उहाँले तिनीहरूका लागि एउटा सहर तयार पार्नुभएको छ ।
Instead, they were longing for 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.
17 आफ्नो जाँच हुँदा विश्वासद्वारा नै अब्राहामले इसहाकलाई बलि चढाए, जो उनको एक मात्र छोरा थिए जसलाई उनले बलिदान चढाए । उनले नै प्रतिज्ञाहरू प्राप्त गरेका थिए ।
By faith, Avraham, being tested, offered up Iskhaq; and he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only son;
18 यिनी तिनै अब्राहाम थिए जसलाई यसो भनिएको थियो, “इसहाकद्वारा नै तेरो सन्तानको नाउँ रहनेछ ।”
even he to whom it was said, "In Iskhaq will your descendants be called;"
19 परमेश्वरले इसहाकलाई मृत्युबाट जीवित पार्न सक्नुहुने थियो भन्ने कुरा अब्राहामलाई थाहा थियो, र साङ्केतिक अर्थमा भन्नुपर्दा उनले तिनिहरूबाट आफ्ना छोरालाई फिर्ता पाएका थिए ।
concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.
20 आउन लागेका थोकहरूको बारेमा इसहाकले विश्वासद्वारा नै याकूब र एसावलाई आशिष् दिए ।
By faith, Iskhaq blessed Yaquv and Isuw, even concerning things to come.
21 याकूब मर्नै लागेका बेलामा विश्वासद्वारा नै उनले योसेफका हरेक छोरालाई आशिष् दिए । लौरोको टुप्पोमा अडेस लागेर याकूबले आराधना गरे ।
By faith, Yaquv, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Yauseph, and bowed over the top of his staff.
22 योसेफको अन्त्य नजिकिँदा विश्वासद्वारा नै तिनले मिश्रबाट इस्राएलीहरू प्रस्थान हुने विषयमा बोलेका थिए र तिनका अस्थिहरूको बारेमा तिनीहरूलाई आदेश दिएका थिए ।
By faith, Yauseph, when his end was near, made mention of the departure of the people of Israyel; and gave instructions concerning his bones.
23 मोशा जन्मँदा तिनी सुन्दर भएको कारणले गर्दा उनका आमाबुबाले विश्वासद्वारा नै तिनलाई तिन महिनासम्म लुकाएर राखे र तिनीहरू राजाको आदेशसित डराएनन् ।
By faith, Mushe, 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.
24 मोशा हुर्केपछि विश्वासद्वारा नै तिनले फारोकी छोरीको छोरा कहलाइनलाई इन्कार गरे ।
By faith, Mushe, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,
25 त्यसको सट्टामा, तिनले पापको क्षणिक सुख भोग्नुभन्दा बरु परमेश्वरका मानिसहरूसँगै दुःख भोग्ने कुरालाई छाने ।
choosing rather to share ill treatment with God's people, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time;
26 मिश्रको सम्पत्तिमा भन्दा ख्रीष्टलाई पछ्याउँदा सहनुपर्ने अपमानलाई नै उनले बहुमूल्यको ठाने । कारण उनले आफ्ना आँखालाई इनाममाथि केन्द्रित गराएका थिए ।
considering the abuse suffered for the Meshikha greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
27 विश्वासद्वारा नै मोशाले मिश्रदेश छोडे । उनी राजाको क्रोधदेखि डराएनन्, किनकि एक जो अदृश्यलाई देखेजस्तै गरी उनले सही रहे ।
By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
28 त्यसकारण, नाश गर्नेले इस्राएलीहरूका पहिले जन्मिएका जेठा छोराहरूलाई छुन नसकोस् भनी विश्वासद्वारा नै उनले निस्तार-चाड र रगतको छिट्काउको पालन गरे ।
By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
29 विश्वासद्वारा नै उनले सुख्खा जमिनमा हिँडेजस्तै गरी लाल समुद्र पार गरे । जब मिश्रीहरूले पनि यसै गर्न खोजे, तब तिनीहरू डुबे ।
By faith, they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up.
30 तिनीहरूले सात दिनसम्म यरीहो पर्खालको वरिपरि घुमेपछि विश्वासद्वारा नै यो ढल्यो ।
By faith, the walls of Irikhu fell down, after they had been encircled for seven days.
31 राहाब वेश्याले विश्वासद्वारा नै जासुसहरूलाई शान्तिसाथ सत्कार गरेकीले हुनाले तिनी अनाज्ञाकारीहरूसँगै नष्ट भइनन् ।
By faith, Rakhav the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace.
32 अनि योभन्दा बढी म के भनौँ? यदि मैले गिदोन, बाराक, शिमशोन, यिप्ता, दाऊद, शमूएल र अगमवक्ताहरूको बारेमा भनेँ भने, मलाई समय नै पुग्दैन ।
What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gedeun, Baraq, Shemshun, Naphtakh, Dawid, Shemuyel, and the prophets;
33 विश्वासद्वारा नै तिनीहरूले राज्यहरूलाई जिते; न्यायपूर्ण काम गरे; र प्रतिज्ञाहरू प्राप्त गरे । तिनीहरूले सिंहहरूको मुखलाई बन्द गरिदिए ।
who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
34 तिनीहरूले आगोको ज्वालालाई निभाए; तरवारको धारबाट भागे; रोगहरूबाट निको पारिए; युद्धमा शक्तिशाली भए; र विदेशी सेनाहरूलाई भगाए ।
quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, grew mighty in war, and caused foreign armies to flee.
35 स्त्रीहरूले आफ्ना मरेकाहरूलाई पुनरुत्थानद्वारा प्राप्त गरे । अरूले अझ उत्तम पुनरुत्थान प्राप्त गर्नलाई तिनीहरूले छुटकारालाई स्वीकार गरेनन् । त्यसैले, तिनीहरूले दण्ड भोगे ।
Women received their dead by resurrection. And others were tortured, not accepting the payment for release, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
36 अरूहरूले निन्दा, कोर्रा, साङ्ला र कैदजस्ता आदि कुराहरू सहे ।
Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment.
37 तिनीहरूलाई ढुङ्गाले हानियो । तिनीहरूलाई दुई भाग हुने गरी चिरियो । तिनीहरूलाई तरवारले मारियो । तिनीहरूले भेडा र बाख्राको छाला लगाएर हिँड्डुल गर्नुपर्यो र विभिन्न किसिमका दुःख, निर्दयता र अमानवीय कुराहरू सहनुपर्यो ।
They were stoned, they were sawed apart, they were put to the test, they were killed with the sword. They went around in sheepskins and in goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, mistreated
38 यो संसार तिनीहरूका लागि योग्य थिएन । तिनीहरू मरुभूमि, पहाड, गुफा र जमिनका ओडारहरूतिर तितर-बितर हुनुपर्यो ।
(of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth.
39 यहाँसम्म यी सबै मानिसहरू तिनीहरूका विश्वासको कारण परमेश्वरद्वारा प्रमाणित भए, तापनि तिनीहरूले प्रतिज्ञा गरिएका कुराहरू प्राप्त गर्न सकेनन् ।
These all, having had testimony given to them through their faith, did not receive the promise,
40 हामीविना तिनीहरू सिद्ध नहोऊन् भनी परमेश्वरले हाम्रा लागि अझ उत्तम कुरा अघिबाटै योजना गरिदिनुभएको थियो ।
God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
