 “Gyidi yɛ awerɛhyem a emu yɛ den a yɛwɔ sɛ ade a yɛn ani da so bɛba mu.” Tete Greek asɛmfua a wɔkyerɛɛ ase “gyidi” wɔ Hebrifo 11:1 no, ɛkyerɛ sɛ obi wɔ biribi mu ahotoso, ogye tom paa, na n’adwene si no pi wɔ ho. Ɛnyɛ biribi a yɛn kɔn dɔ kɛkɛ na ɛma yenya gyidi a yɛreka ho asɛm yi, na mmom ɛyɛ “awerɛhyem a emu yɛ den” a yɛwɔ wɔ biribi mu.

Ɔkaa sɛ na wɔwɔ gyidi, na ɔkwan a wɔfaa so kyerɛɛ wɔn gyidi ne sɛ wɔyɛɛ Onyankopɔn apɛde.—Hebrifo 11:4-38.
