< Hebrews 2 >

1 So we should pay even closer attention to what we've learned so we don't drift away from it.
Eyi nti na ɛsɛ sɛ yeso nokware a yɛate no mu dennen, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a biribi rentu yɛn aso.
2 If the message the angels brought was trustworthy, and every sin and disobedient act brings its own consequence,
Nsɛm a abɔfo no kae no yɛ nokware, enti obiara a wanni so no nyaa asotwe a ɛfata no.
3 how will we escape if we don't pay attention to this great salvation that the Lord first announced, and then we had confirmed to us by those who heard him.
Na sɛ yɛantie saa nkwagye yi a, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na yɛatumi aguan? Awurade no ankasa na odii kan kaa saa nkwagye yi ho asɛm na wɔn a wotiee no no ama yɛahu sɛ ɛyɛ nokware.
4 God also testified through signs and miracles, by acts that show his power, and by the gifts of the Holy Spirit, given as he chose.
Saa bere koro no ara mu na Onyankopɔn nam ne nsɛnkyerɛnne ne nʼanwonwadwuma so dii ho adanse. Bio, ɔkyɛɛ Honhom Kronkron no sɛnea ɔpɛ.
5 It's not angels who will be in charge of the world to come that we're talking about.
Onyankopɔn amma abɔfo anni wiase a na wayɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔrebɛbɔ no so; saa wiase a yɛka ho asɛm no.
6 But as it's been said, “What are human beings that you should worry about them? What is a son of man that you should care about him?
Na mmom wɔaka wɔ Kyerɛwsɛm no mu baabi se, “Onipa ne hena a wokae no; na onipa ba nso ne hena a wʼani ku ne ho?
7 You set him a little lower than the angels; you crowned him with glory and honor, and placed him over all your creation.
Wobɔɔ no ma ɔyɛɛ akumaa kakra sen abɔfo; na wode wʼanuonyam ne nidi abɔ no abotiri,
8 You gave him authority over everything.” Nothing was left out when God gave him authority over everything. However, we see that not everything is subject to his authority yet.
sɛ onni nneɛma nyinaa so.” Ɛka se Onyankopɔn bɔɔ onipa sɛ, “Nneɛma nyinaa sodifo,” eyi da no adi sɛ biribiara ka ho. Nanso yenhu sɛ mprempren onipa di nneɛma nyinaa so.
9 But we see Jesus, placed a little lower than the angels, through the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor. Through God's grace Jesus experienced death for everyone.
Nanso yehu Yesu! Mmere tiaa bi, wɔbɔɔ no hyɛɛ abɔfo ase sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a esiane Onyankopɔn ahummɔbɔ nti ɛsɛ sɛ owu ma nnipa nyinaa no. Yehu no sɛ esiane owu a owui no nti, wɔahyɛ no anuonyam.
10 It was appropriate that God, who creates and maintains everything, should bring many of his children to glory, and to completely prepare through suffering the one who leads them to salvation.
Eye sɛ Onyankopɔn a ɔbɔɔ nneɛma nyinaa na ɔhwɛ so no bɛma Yesu afa nʼamanehunu no mu ayɛ pɛ sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛma ne mma nyinaa akɔ saa anuonyam no mu bi. Efisɛ Yesu no nko ara ne Onipa a obedi wɔn anim akɔ nkwagye no mu.
11 For both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy belong to the same family. That's why he doesn't hesitate to call them “brothers,”
Ɔma nnipa yɛ kronkron fi wɔn bɔne mu. Na ɔne wɔn a wayɛ wɔn kronkron no nyinaa wɔ Agya baako. Ɛno nti na Yesu mfɛre sɛ ɔfrɛ wɔn anuanom no.
12 saying “I will announce your name to my brothers; I will praise you among your people when they meet together.”
Ɔka se, “Mɛka wo ho asɛm akyerɛ me nuanom, mɛkamfo wo wɔ wɔn a wɔahyia hɔ no nyinaa anim.”
13 Also: “I will place my trust in him,” and “Here I am, together with the children God has given to me.”
Ɔsan ka bio se, “Mede me ho bɛto Onyankopɔn so.” Na ɔno nso ka se, “Mma a Onyankopɔn de wɔn ama me no ni.”
14 Because the children share flesh and blood in common, he shared in this in the same way so that through death he could destroy the one that had the power of death—the devil—
Esiane sɛ mma no wɔ ɔhonam ne mogya nti, Yesu nso baa onipa tebea mu sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɔnam ne wu no so bɛsɛe ɔbonsam a okura owu tumi no ahoɔden.
15 and free everyone who through fear of death were enslaved all their lives.
Na ɔnam so agye wɔn a esiane sɛ wosuro owu nti, wɔayɛ akoa wɔ wɔn asetena nyinaa mu no.
16 Of course it's not angels he's concerned about; he's concerned to help the children of Abraham.
Ɛyɛ nokware turodoo sɛ ɛnyɛ abɔfo na ɔboa wɔn. Na mmom sɛnea Kyerɛwsɛm no ka no, “Ɔboa Abraham asefo.”
17 That's why it was necessary for him to become like his brothers in everything, so that he could become a merciful and trustworthy high priest in the things of God, to forgive his people's sins.
Eyi kyerɛ sɛ ɔkwan biara so no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ sɛ ne nuanom, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛyɛ wɔn Sɔfopanyin nokwafo ne mmɔborɔhunufo wɔ Onyankopɔn som mu, na anam so ma wɔde nnipa bɔne akyɛ wɔn.
18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.
Enti afei, obetumi aboa wɔn a wɔasɔ wɔn ahwɛ no, efisɛ wɔsɔɔ ɔno ankasa hwɛe, ma ohuu amane.
