1 Eshe no shishts keewatse shortarr no dihirawok'o no shishits keew man jango sheengsh kordek'o noosh geyitwe.
So, [since that is true], we must pay very careful attention to what we have heard [about God’s Son], in order that we do not drift away from it, [as a boat drifts off its course when people do not guide it] [MET].
2 Melakiwots weeron keewets aap'o arik wotwtsere, keewan finats jiitsrawonat keewmansho alerawo bísh wotit fayo daatsre,
[God’s laws that] were given by angels were valid, and God justly punished all who rejected them and all who disobeyed [DOU] them.
3 Eshe, no kashts kash een wotts keewan no aatsnitka wotiyal aawk'oneya b́ shirotse keshosh nofaliti? Kashaanowere shin shin shishiyo dek'tuutso b́ tookon doonzoniye, bíyoke shishts ashuwotswere ar b́wottsok'o danirne.
So, we will certainly not escape [God punishing us] if we ignore such a great [message about how God] [MTY] saves us! [RHQ] This [new message] was first spoken by the Lord [Jesus] {The Lord [Jesus] first spoke this [message]}. Then it was confirmed to us by those who heard [what the Lord told them] {those who heard [what the Lord told them] confirmed it to us}.
4 Ik'onwere dabt milkiton, adits keewon, k'osh k'osh aditswotsi woshonat b́ shunok'o b́ imts shayiri S'ayin weeron bo gawts gawo kup'shre.
God also confirmed to us [that this message was true] by [enabling believers to do] many things that showed God’s power, to do other miraculous things [DOU], and [to do other things] by the gifts that the Holy Spirit distributed to them according to what [God] desired.
5 Ik'o shinomaants weet datsu, no bjango nokeweyiru melakiwots bin boosh kewiratse
God has determined that the angels will not rule over everything. [Instead, he has determined that Christ] will rule in the new world that [God] will [create]. [That is the new world] about which I am writing.
6 Dab́ S'ayin mas'aafwotsitse ikoke hank'o eteere, «Nee bín n gawitwok'osh asho eebi? Bo kis'o n detsetwok'o ash na'o eebi?
Someone spoke to [God about this] somewhere [in the Scriptures], saying, (No one is worthy enough for you to think about him!/Who is [worthy enough] for you to think about him?) [RHQ] (No human is [worthy enough] for you to care for him!/Is any human [worthy enough] for you to care for him?) [RHQ]
7 Melakiwotsiyere muk'i ndashiyi Mangonat údi zewdiyo b́ tookats n gedi
[So it is surprising that] you have caused people to be for a little while inferior in rank to angels. You have greatly honored [DOU] them [MET], as [kings are honored with] a crown.
8 Jam keewo bí ali shirots n woshi.» Jam keewo bí ali shirots b́ woshor, bí ali shirots woshraniyere b́ ooritso eegonwor aaliye. Ernmó and jam keewo b́ fa'ok'on bí ali shirotse b́ beyirwok'o andish b́borfetso be'afa'one.
You have put everything under people’s control [MET]. God has determined that people will rule over absolutely everything [LIT]. But now, at this present time, we perceive that people do not yet have authority over everything.
9 Andomó muk' aawush melakiwotsiyere muk'i dashan teshts k'iri gond bek'o b́daatstsosh mangonat údi zewdiyo kurdek'tso Iyesusi bek'etwone, bí Ik'i s'aaton no únetssh k'irre.
But we do know about Jesus, [who truly has authority over everything]! Hebrews 2:9b-13 Jesus, for a little while, became inferior [in rank] to angels in order to die on behalf of [MET] everyone. He became inferior when he suffered [and] died, as God kindly [planned]. But now he has been greatly [honored] [DOU] [by being] crowned [as kings are].
10 Jam keewo bínat b́tookish azdek'ts Ik'o ay nana'úwotsi mangomants dowosh bo kashit weero jishitwo Iyesusi gond bek'on s'een b́ wotitwok'o b́woshi.
It was fitting that [God] make [Jesus] (perfect/all that God intended him to be). God was enabling many people who would belong to him [MET] to share his glory. God [is the one who] created all things, and [he is the one] for whom all things [exist]. [He perfected Jesus] by causing him to suffer [and die]. [Jesus] is the one whom [God] uses to save people.
11 Ashuwotsi S'ayin woshitwonat b́weeron S'ayin wotts ashuwotswere nih iko nana'úwotsiye, manatse tuwtson Iyesus bonowere «T eshwotsiye» err s'eegosh jitseratse.
[Jesus] is the one who (makes people holy/sets people apart for God), and they all belong to God’s family. [As a result, Christ] gladly [LIT] proclaims them to be [like] his own brothers [and sisters].
12 Mansh S'ayin mas'aafwotsitse «N shúútso tieeshwotssh keewitwe, Ashuwots bokakwetsokee botaalotse dubon neen uditwe» etre.
[The Psalmist wrote what Christ said to God about us becoming] his brothers, in these words: I will proclaim to my brothers how awesome you are (OR, what you ([are like/have done])) [MTY]. I will sing praise to you in the presence of the congregation!
13 Mank'o «Taa bí ats t imneitiyo juwitwe» etre, Ando aani «Hamb eshe taanat Ik'o taash b́imts nana'awotsn hanok noone» etre.
And a prophet wrote [in] another [Scripture passage what Christ said about God], I will trust him. And in another [Scripture passage, Christ said about those who are like his] children, I and the ones that God has given me are here.
14 Mansh nana'anots meetsonat s'atson detsk ash bowottsotse Iyesuswere bokok'o ash b́wotiye, man b́ k'alwere b́ k'irtsatse tuutson k'iratse al detstso dablosi t'afiyoshee.
So, since those [whom God calls his] children are all human beings [MTY], Jesus also became a human being [just like them]. The devil has the power to cause people [to be afraid] to die, but Christ became human in order that by his dying he might make the devil powerless.
15 Mank'o k'ir shati jangosh bo dúr jamo guuts wotat kéweyat beyirwotsi aaniy kewdek'oshee.
[Jesus did that] to free all of us who are like slaves [MET] all the time we live, because we are [forced to] be afraid to die.
16 Iyesus shuno, melakiwotsi b́ woterawo, Abraham naaro tep'oshee.
Because [Jesus became a human being], it is not angels whom he wants to help. No, it is we who trust God as Abraham did whom he wants to help.
17 Mansh jam keewo bí eshwots kok'o woto bísh geyife b́teshi, mank'oon ashuwots morro orowa etosh Ik'osh finosh amanetsonat maarts kahni naashwotsatsi k'aabo b́wotiye.
So, [since he came to help humans, not angels], he had to be made exactly like [us whom he calls] his own brothers [and sisters]. He wants to be a Supreme Priest who [acts] mercifully [to all people] and who faithfully does what God wants, so that people who had sinned would be declared no longer guilty.
18 Bí b́ tookosh fadeyat gondo b́bek'tsotse fadeyrwotsi tep'o falitwe.
[Specifically], he is able to help those/us who are tempted [to sin]. He can do that because he suffered, and he was also tempted [to sin like we are tempted to sin].
