Ŵaebulania 12
1 Nipele, uweji tukwete mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵaumboni wanti nyi waukutusyungula, kwayele tutyosye indu yose yaikutusiŵilila, ni sambi syasikutukamulila kwa chitema. Tuutuche pangapwa ntima mu luwilo lwaluli paujo petu.
Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us,
2 Twalole Che Yesu jwachitandisye chikulupi chetu, jwelejo ni juchachimalichisye. Kwa liwamba lya lukondwa lulwaliji paujo pao, jwelejo jwapililile kuwa pa nsalaba, namose chaliji chindu cha soni. Ni sambano akutama kunlyo kwa chitengu cha umwenye cha Akunnungu.
looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 Mwaganichisye kwannope Che Yesu, juŵapililile nkukanilwa kwekulungwa kutyochela kwa ŵandu ŵa sambi. Nipele nkapela namose kupwa ntima.
For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you do not grow weary, fainting in your souls.
4 Pakuŵa, mkulimbana ni sambi nganimme kuputana mpaka kuwa.
You have not yet resisted to blood, striving against sin.
5 Sooni ana nliŵalile agala maloŵe ga kuntusya ntima gakusala Akunnungu? “Mwanangu nkanyelusya Ambuje pakunjamuka, namuno nkapwa ntima pakunkalipila.
You have forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as with children, “My son, do not take lightly the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are reproved by him;
6 Pakuŵa Ambuje akunjamuka jwalijose jwakunnonyela, ni kumputa jwalijose jwakunkunda kuŵa mwanagwe.”
for whom the Lord loves, he disciplines, and chastises every son whom he receives.”
7 Mpililile kujamukwa pakuŵa gali majiganyo. Akunnungu akuntendela ŵanyamwe nti ŵanache ŵakwe, pakuŵa ana mwanache jwapi jwangakujamukwa ni atatigwe?
It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?
8 Iŵaga ngankwamukwa ni Akunnungu chisau achiŵanagwe wose yakuti pakwamukwa, ŵanyamwe nganimma ŵanache ŵausyene ŵa Akunnungu, mmele ŵanache ŵa kuichila.
But if you are without discipline, of which all have been made partakers, then you are illegitimate, and not children.
9 Sooni, iŵaga achatati ŵetu ŵa chiilu ŵaŵatuŵeleche, paŵatujamwiche uwe twaachimbichisye, ana ngati tukusachilwa kulitulusya nnope kwa Atati ŵetu ŵa kwinani kuti tutame?
Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?
10 Achatati ŵaŵatuŵeleche ŵatujamwiche mmoŵa kanandi mpela iŵatite kuwona ili yambone achinsyene. Nambo Akunnungu akutujamuka kwa ligongo lya kutukamusya, akutenda yeleyo kuti tutendekwe ŵaswela mpela asyene.
For they indeed for a few days disciplined us as seemed good to them, but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.
11 Pakukutyochela kwamukwa ngakukuŵa kwakusengwasya, nambo kukusupusya. Nambo kumbesi kwa aŵala ŵaŵajiganyikwe ni kwamukwa ko, kukwapa ukombole wa kupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu ni utame wa chitendewele.
All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
12 Kwayele ngalimbisye makono genu ni malungo genu gagapesile.
Therefore lift up the hands that hang down and the feeble knees,
13 Njendelechele kwenda mmatala gagoloka kuti chindu chachilemele chikatininguka nambo chilame.
and make straight paths for your feet, so what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.
14 Nlimbile kutama kwa chitendewele ni ŵandu wose, sooni ntame kwa uswela pakuŵa ngapagwa mundu juchiŵawone Ambuje iŵaga mundu jo nganaŵa jwanswela.
Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,
15 Nlilolechesye chenene, kuti jwalijose akasausoyasya upile wa Akunnungu, nlilolechesye kuti mundu akaŵa mpela chitela chakuŵaŵa pasikati jenu ni kwika nago malagasyo, ni kuujonanga umi wa ŵandu ŵajinji.
looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you and many be defiled by it,
16 Akapagwa jwachigwagwa, pane mundu jwangaajogopa Akunnungu mpela a Esau, jwakujasile kupagwa kwakwe kwaandanda kwa chakulya chimo.
lest there be any sexually immoral person or profane person, like Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal.
17 Pakuŵa nkumanyililanga kuti namuno kanyuma paŵasosile sooni kuupochela upile wakwe kutyochela kwa atatigwe ŵakanilwe. Pakuŵa nganapata lipesa lya kuleka sambi ni kugagalausya gaŵatesile, namuno ŵasosile nnope kwa misosi.
For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for a change of mind though he sought it diligently with tears.
18 Ŵanyamwe ngininnyika ku chitumbi cha Sinai mpela iŵatite kuchiichilila ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli. Chitumbi chikukomboleka kuchikwaya chili nkukolela mooto, pa chipi, ni kusona kwakukulungwa kwa chimbunga,
For you have not come to a mountain that might be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness, darkness, storm,
19 ni lisegwe lya lipenga, ni liloŵe lininkuŵecheta maloŵe. Aŵala ŵaŵapilikene usone wo ŵachondelele Akunnungu kuti akakunguluka nawo sooni,
the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which those who heard it begged that not one more word should be spoken to them,
20 pakuŵa nganakombola kupililila lilajisyo lilyatyochekwe lyalikuti, “Juchakwaye chitumbi chi namose chiŵe chinyama, chaponyekwe maganga.”
for they could not stand that which was commanded, “If even an animal touches the mountain, it shall be stoned”.
21 Ni indu iyaoneche yo yaliji yakogoya nnope, namose che Musa ŵatite, “Ngogopa ni kutetemela.”
So fearful was the appearance that Moses said, “I am terrified and trembling.”
22 Nambo ŵanyamwe nkuichilile ku chikwesya cha Sayuni, ni ku musi wa Akunnungu ŵajumi, nnyiche Yelusalemu wa kwinani kwakusongangene achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵangakuŵalanjikwa, ŵakusangalala.
But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels,
23 Nnyiche ku mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵaali ŵandanda kupagwa wa Akunnungu ni meena gao galembekwe kwinani. Nnyiche paujo pa Akunnungu jwali jwakulamula jwa ŵandu wose, ni paujo pa mbumu sya ŵandu ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu ŵatendekwe ŵamalilwe.
to the festal gathering and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 Nnyiche ku Che Yesu jwakwilanya jwa lilangano lya sambano ni ku miasi jakwe jajijitiche jajikuŵecheta yambone kupunda miasi ji che Habili.
to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than that of Abel.
25 Nipele, nlilolechesye kuti nkakana kumpilikanila jwelejo jwakuŵecheta nomwe. Mpela aŵala Ŵaisilaeli ŵaŵakanile kumpilikanila che Musa, juŵaasalilaga utenga kutyoka kwa Akunnungu paŵaliji pachilambo pano nganakulupuka. Isyene, uweji ngatukombola kukulupuka iŵaga tukukana kumpilikanila jwelejo jwakutusalila utenga kutyochela kwinani.
See that you do not refuse him who speaks. For if they did not escape when they refused him who warned on the earth, how much more will we not escape who turn away from him who warns from heaven,
26 Katema Akunnungu paŵaŵechete pa chitumbi cha Sinai ŵachitenganyisye chilambo, nambo sambano alanjile kuti, “Chinachitenganye chilambo ni ngaŵa chilambo pe nambo kwinani nombe nako.”
whose voice shook the earth then, but now he has promised, saying, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heavens.”
27 Liloŵe li “Sooni” likutulosya kuti indu yose yepanganyikwe chiitenganikwe ni kutyosyekwa, kuti indu yangaikukomboleka kutenganyikwa isigalile.
This phrase, “Yet once more” signifies 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 Kwayele, pakuŵa tukupochela umwenye wangatenganyika, twatogolele kwa woga ni kwa kwapopelela Akunnungu, kwa litala lichilyanonyelesye ni kwa kulitulusya ni kwapopelela,
Therefore, receiving a Kingdom that cannot be shaken, let’s have grace, through which we serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,
29 pakuŵa Akunnungu ŵetu ali mooto waukutinisya.
for our God is a consuming fire.
