Hebru 12
1 Te dongah mamih khawm ta, laipainah khomai tah mamih aka thing la heyet ana om coeng ta. Hnorhih neh tomban tholhnah te boeih khoe uh. Mamih he thingthuelnah ah n'tawn vanbangla uehnah neh yong uh sih.
Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Tangnah hmapaikung neh hmakhapkung Jesuh te hmaitang uh sih. Anih loh omngaihnah a tawn coeng dongah yahpohnah thinglam te a hnaep tih a ueh phoeiah Pathen kah ngolkhoel bantang ah ngol.
looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of [our] faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 hlangtholh rhoek lamloh amah a pakainah thil a ueh te poek uh. Te daengah ni na hinglu te tawnba neh na ko a bawt pawt eh.
For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against themselves, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.
4 Tholhnah aka hnuei rhoek te a thii hil na oel uh hlan.
Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:
5 Ka ca rhoek bangla nangmih m'voek tih, 'Ka ca,’ tila thaphohnah te na hnilh uh. Boeipa kah hlinsainah te hnoelrhoeng boeh. Amah loh n'toeltham vaengah yawk boeh.
and ye have forgotten the exhortation, which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;
6 Boeipa loh a lungnah te a toel tih ca la a doe boeih te a boh.
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 Pathen loh nangmih te ca la n'bawnhlak bangla hlinsainah khaw ueh uh. Ca aka toel pawh napa te unim?
It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom [his] father chasteneth not?
8 Tedae tekah hlinsainah na khueh uh pawt atah halhca la boeih om tih ca la na om uh pawh.
But if ye are without chastening, whereof all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 Te phoeiah ngawn tah pa rhoek te mamih pumsa hlinsaikung la n'khueh uh tih n'yahnah uh. Te dongah mueihla kah pa taengah taoe boengai neh taoe hing boel sih a?
Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 Amih long tah khohnin kolkalh ham a poek uh tarhing ah n'toel uh. Tedae Amah long tah amah kah cimcaihnah te dang sak ham ni mamih n'rhoeikhang sak.
For they verily for a few days chastened [us] as seemed good to them; but he for [our] profit, that [we] may be partakers of his holiness.
11 Te dongah hlinsainah a om vaengah ngawn tah omngaihnah pawt tih kothaenah ni tila boeih a poek. Tedae hnukkhueng ah tekah a hlinsai rhangneh duengnah thaihtak te ngaimong la n'thuung.
All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous, but grievous: yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, [even the fruit] of righteousness.
12 Te dongah kut aka kha neh khuklu aka hlinghlawk te duel uh.
Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the palsied knees;
13 Na kho te caehlong a dueng la saii pah. Te daengah ni aka khaem loh mael pawt vetih lat a hoeih eh.
and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame be not turned out of the way, but rather be healed.
14 A cungkuem taengah rhoepnah, cimnah neh huul uh. Te nen pawt atah Boeipa te hmu mahpawh.
Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:
15 Khat khaw Pathen kah lungvatnah lamloh talae pawt ham hiphoel uh. Pakhat khaw olkhaa yung aka poe hang loh tulnoi tih te long te muep m'boi sak boel saeh.
looking carefully lest [there be] any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby the many be defiled;
16 Pakhat long khaw hlanghalh neh Esau bangla rhonging boel saeh. Anih long te caak kamat la amah kah caming te a thuung.
lest [there be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright.
17 Yoethennah a hnawt te a tloihsoi ah pang a ngaih te khaw na ming uh. Te dongah te te mikphi neh tlap cakhaw yutnah hmuen a hmuh moenih.
For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected (for he found no place of repentance), though he sought it diligently with tears.
18 Hmaitak hmai, khomu, khohmuep, rhonu tlanthim, olueng olhum neh olthang ol te phathuep ham na paan uh moenih.
For ye are not come unto [a mount] that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 Te kah te aka ya rhoek loh amih taengah olka a thap pawt ham a bih uh.
and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which [voice] they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them:
20 Olpaek te a ueh uh pawt dongah suva long pataeng tlang te a ben atah mat a dae.
for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;
21 Te vaengkah mikhmuh ah mueirhih te om tangloeng tih Moses loh, “Lakueng ngaiha la ka om tih ka thuen,” a ti.
and so fearful was the appearance, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:
22 Tedae Zion tlang, aka hing Pathen kah kho, vaan Jerusalem, puencawn rhoek a thawng a sang a tingtunnah,
but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,
23 vaan ah minghlum tangtae hlangboel camingomthang neh, a cungkuem kah laitloekkung Pathen taengah, rhuemtuet la aka dueng mueihla taengah,
to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 paipi thai kah rhikhangkung Jesuh taengah khaw, Abel lakah khaw a then a thui tih a haeh thii te na paan uh.
and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than [that of] Abel.
25 Nangmih taengah aka thui te na hnawt uh pawt ham ngaithuen uh. Amih loh diklai ah a mangthui te a poenghal pawt atah vaan lamkah te mamih loh m'phaelh tak he muep nah ngai ni ta.
See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not, when they refused him that warned [them] on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape], who turn away from him that [warneth] from heaven:
26 A ol loh diklai a hinghoek vaengah ni ana caeng coeng tih, “Diklai bueng pawt tih vaan khaw vai ka hinghuen pueng ni,” a ti coeng.
whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
27 Te long te a hinghoek rhoek kah thovaelnah a saii ham te rhenten a thuicaih koep coeng. Te daengah ni aka hinghoek pawt rhoek loh a naeh uh eh.
And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
28 Te dongah cakrhuet ram n'dang uh tih lungvatnah te khueh uh sih. Tekah nen te Pathen kah kolo la yahyongnah, hinyahnah neh bawk uh sih.
Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
29 Mamih kah Pathen tah hmai la rhong taktak coeng.
for our God is a consuming fire.
