Hebrews 12
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us.
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.
2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
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.
3 Consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
Mwaganichisye kwannope Che Yesu, juŵapililile nkukanilwa kwekulungwa kutyochela kwa ŵandu ŵa sambi. Nipele nkapela namose kupwa ntima.
4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.
Pakuŵa, mkulimbana ni sambi nganimme kuputana mpaka kuwa.
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons: “My son, do not take lightly the discipline of the Lord, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you.
Sooni ana nliŵalile agala maloŵe ga kuntusya ntima gakusala Akunnungu? “Mwanangu nkanyelusya Ambuje pakunjamuka, namuno nkapwa ntima pakunkalipila.
6 For the Lord disciplines the one He loves, and He chastises every son He receives.”
Pakuŵa Ambuje akunjamuka jwalijose jwakunnonyela, ni kumputa jwalijose jwakunkunda kuŵa mwanagwe.”
7 Endure suffering as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father?
Mpililile kujamukwa pakuŵa gali majiganyo. Akunnungu akuntendela ŵanyamwe nti ŵanache ŵakwe, pakuŵa ana mwanache jwapi jwangakujamukwa ni atatigwe?
8 If you do not experience discipline like everyone else, then you are illegitimate children and not true sons.
Iŵaga ngankwamukwa ni Akunnungu chisau achiŵanagwe wose yakuti pakwamukwa, ŵanyamwe nganimma ŵanache ŵausyene ŵa Akunnungu, mmele ŵanache ŵa kuichila.
9 Furthermore, we have all had earthly fathers who disciplined us, and we respected them. Should we not much more submit to the Father of our spirits and live?
Sooni, iŵaga achatati ŵetu ŵa chiilu ŵaŵatuŵeleche, paŵatujamwiche uwe twaachimbichisye, ana ngati tukusachilwa kulitulusya nnope kwa Atati ŵetu ŵa kwinani kuti tutame?
10 Our fathers disciplined us for a short time as they thought best, but God disciplines us for our good, so that we may share in His holiness.
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.
11 No discipline seems enjoyable at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it yields a harvest of righteousness and peace to those who have been trained by it.
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.
12 Therefore strengthen your limp hands and weak knees.
Kwayele ngalimbisye makono genu ni malungo genu gagapesile.
13 Make straight paths for your feet, so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.
Njendelechele kwenda mmatala gagoloka kuti chindu chachilemele chikatininguka nambo chilame.
14 Pursue peace with everyone, as well as holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.
Nlimbile kutama kwa chitendewele ni ŵandu wose, sooni ntame kwa uswela pakuŵa ngapagwa mundu juchiŵawone Ambuje iŵaga mundu jo nganaŵa jwanswela.
15 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God, and that no root of bitterness springs up to cause trouble and defile many.
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.
16 See to it that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his birthright.
Akapagwa jwachigwagwa, pane mundu jwangaajogopa Akunnungu mpela a Esau, jwakujasile kupagwa kwakwe kwaandanda kwa chakulya chimo.
17 For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected. He could find no ground for repentance, though he sought the blessing with tears.
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.
18 For you have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom, and storm;
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,
19 to a trumpet blast or to a voice that made its hearers beg that no further word be spoken.
ni lisegwe lya lipenga, ni liloŵe lininkuŵecheta maloŵe. Aŵala ŵaŵapilikene usone wo ŵachondelele Akunnungu kuti akakunguluka nawo sooni,
20 For they could not bear what was commanded: “If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned.”
pakuŵa nganakombola kupililila lilajisyo lilyatyochekwe lyalikuti, “Juchakwaye chitumbi chi namose chiŵe chinyama, chaponyekwe maganga.”
21 The sight was so terrifying that even Moses said, “I am trembling with fear.”
Ni indu iyaoneche yo yaliji yakogoya nnope, namose che Musa ŵatite, “Ngogopa ni kutetemela.”
22 Instead, you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to myriads of angels
Nambo ŵanyamwe nkuichilile ku chikwesya cha Sayuni, ni ku musi wa Akunnungu ŵajumi, nnyiche Yelusalemu wa kwinani kwakusongangene achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵangakuŵalanjikwa, ŵakusangalala.
23 in joyful assembly, to the congregation of the firstborn, enrolled in heaven. You have come to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect,
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.
24 to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.
Nnyiche ku Che Yesu jwakwilanya jwa lilangano lya sambano ni ku miasi jakwe jajijitiche jajikuŵecheta yambone kupunda miasi ji che Habili.
25 See to it that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if the people did not escape when they refused Him who warned them on earth, how much less will we escape if we reject Him who warns us from heaven?
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.
26 At that time His voice shook the earth, but now He has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth, but heaven as well.”
Katema Akunnungu paŵaŵechete pa chitumbi cha Sinai ŵachitenganyisye chilambo, nambo sambano alanjile kuti, “Chinachitenganye chilambo ni ngaŵa chilambo pe nambo kwinani nombe nako.”
27 The words “Once more” signify the removal of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that the unshakable may remain.
Liloŵe li “Sooni” likutulosya kuti indu yose yepanganyikwe chiitenganikwe ni kutyosyekwa, kuti indu yangaikukomboleka kutenganyikwa isigalile.
28 Therefore, since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be filled with gratitude, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe.
Kwayele, pakuŵa tukupochela umwenye wangatenganyika, twatogolele kwa woga ni kwa kwapopelela Akunnungu, kwa litala lichilyanonyelesye ni kwa kulitulusya ni kwapopelela,
29 “For our God is a consuming fire.”
pakuŵa Akunnungu ŵetu ali mooto waukutinisya.
