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.
Wherefore, seeing we also are encompassed with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us 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 to Jesus the author and finisher of [our] faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set 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 endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
4 Tholhnah aka hnuei rhoek te a thii hil na oel uh hlan.
Ye have not yet resisted to 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 speaketh to you as to children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked by 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?
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons: for what son is he whom the 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 chastisement, of which all are partakers, then are ye bastards and not sons.
9 Te phoeiah ngawn tahpa 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 have had fathers of our flesh who corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection to 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] after their own pleasure; but he for [our] profit, that [we] might 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.
Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless, afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness to them who are exercised by it.
12 Te dongah kut aka kha neh khuklu aka hlinghlawk te duel uh.
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble 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, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
14 A cungkuem taengah rhoepnah, cimnah neh huul uh. Te nen pawt atah Boeipa te hmu mahpawh.
Follow peace with all [men], and holiness, 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 diligently, lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up, trouble [you], and by it 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 morsel of food sold his birth-right.
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 afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully 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 to the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor to blackness, and to 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 the word should not be spoken to them any more:
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 commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
21 Te vaengkah mikhmuh ah mueirhih te om tangloeng tih Moses loh, “Lakueng ngaiha la ka om tih ka thuen,” a ti.
And so terrible was the sight, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and tremble: )
22 Tedae Zion tlang, aka hing Pathen kah kho, vaan Jerusalem, puencawn rhoek a thawng a sang a tingtunnah,
But ye are come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company 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 first-born, who are written 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 the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things 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 who refused him that spoke on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape], if we turn away from him that [speaketh] 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 I shake not the earth only, but also 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 are made, that those things which cannot be 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 we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably, with reverence and godly fear.
29 Mamih kah Pathen tah hmai la rhong taktak coeng.
For our God [is] a consuming fire.
