< Hebru 3 >
1 Te dongah vaan kah khuenah neh pueipo, a cim manuca rhoek, mamih olphoei dongkah caeltueih neh khosoihham Jesuh te hmat uh.
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
2 Anih te Moses bangla a im pum ah uepom neh aka om la a khueh van.
Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses [was faithful] in all his house.
3 Im aka rhoekbah loh hinyahnah cungkuem a khueh ngai bangla anih tah Moses lakah thangpomnah muep a tueng pah.
For this [man] was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath built the house, hath more honor than the house.
4 Im boeih he khat khat loh a rhoekbah dae Pathen loh a cungkuem te a rhoekbah.
For every house is built by some [man]; but he that built all things [is] God.
5 Tedae a im pum kah uepom Moses tah laipainah ham te tueihyoeih bangla a thui uh.
And Moses verily [was] faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were [afterwards] to be spoken.
6 Tedae Khrih tah amah im ah capa bangla om tih mamih khaw sayalh la ngaiuep thangpomnah te rhep n'tuuk uh atah a im kah la n'om uh.
But Christ as a son over his own house: whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence, and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.
7 Te dongah Mueihla Cim loh a thui vanbangla, Tihnin ah a ol te na yaak uh atah,
Wherefore (as the Holy Spirit saith, To-day if ye will hear his voice,
8 Khosoek ah noemcainah khohnin kah koeknah bangla na thinko te ning sak uh boeh.
Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 Te ah te na pa rhoek loh noemcainah neh a n'noemcai uh dongah kum sawmli khuiah kai kah khoboe te a hmuh uh.
When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Te dongah tekah cadil rhoek te ka noih tih, 'Amih loh thinko a taengphaelh uh taitu dongah ka longpuei te ming uh pawh,’ ka ti nah.
Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in [their] heart; and they have not known my ways.
11 Ka kosi neh ka toemngam vanbangla kai kah duemnah khuiah kun uh mahpawh.
So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
12 Manuca rhoek, ngaithuen uh. Aka hing Pathen taeng lamkah aka nong sak hnalvalnah thinko thae te nangmih ah khat long khaw khueh ve ne.
Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
13 Tedae tihnin ah n'khue vanbangla hnin takuem amah la hloep uh thae. Te daengah ni tholhnah dongkah hmilhmaknah dongah nangmih khuikah pakhat long khaw a ning pawt eh.
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To-day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 Te dongah Khrih kah a pueipo la n'om uh daengah ni ngaikhueknah kah a tongnah te a bawt due a khangmai la n'tuuk uh eh.
For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end;
15 A thui bangla tihnin ah a ol te na yaak uh atah koeknah vaengkah bangla nangmih kah thinko te ning sak uh boeh.
While it is said, To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16 A yaak uh lalah aka koek te unim? Tedae Moses loh Egypt lamkah a caeh puei rhoek boeih moenih a?
For some, when they had heard, did provoke: yet, not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 Te vaengah kum sawmli a noih te unim? Aka tholh rhoek taengah moenih a? Amih kah a pum tah khosoek ah la a yalh.
But with whom was he grieved forty years? [was it] not with them that had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?
18 Te phoeiah ol aek rhoek pawt koinih amah kah duemnah khuila kun pawt ham a toemngam te unim?
And to whom did he swear that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 Te dongah hnalvalnah neh kun ham tah coeng uh mahpawh tila m'hmuh uh.
So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
