Hebrews 12
1 Therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses set around us, having put off every weight, and the closely besetting sin, may we run the contest that is set before us through endurance,
Chobulyo, mukuti tuzimbulukitwe ikope lyachisi chepaki zingi, tusiye kumbali zonse zintu zitulemena ni chive china hafuhi naswe. Linu tutiye lubilo chekulonde ibikitwe habunsu bwetu.
2 looking to the Author and Perfecter of the faith—Jesus, who, for the joy set before Him, endured a cross, having despised shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God;
Tutokomele fela za Jesu, mutangi ni mulukisi wetumelo. Kakusanga kubabikitwe hasu bwakwe, naliwongoza hachifapano, kuhita maswbisa acho, hape na kekala hachihuna chalubona lwa Ireeza.
3 for again consider Him who endured such contradiction from the sinners to Himself, that you may not be wearied in your souls—being faint.
Linu muzeze, iye yabaliwongozi mukulwiswa kuzwa kubatendi bachive balwisana naye, Mukuti kanji mwizilwa kukatala munkulo zenu ni kusiya.
4 You did not yet resist to blood—striving with sin;
Kanamubeni kukana kapa kulwila kulwisa chive mbwiteli kuzwa malaha.
5 and you have forgotten the exhortation that speaks fully to you as to sons, “My son, do not despise [the] discipline of [the] LORD, nor be faint, being reproved by Him,
Hape chimwazibala insusuwezo imieleza kuti mubana: “Mwanangu, kanjiuzezi kabuhuba ikalimelo ya Simwine, nandi kukatala haiba nakusikulula.”
6 for whom the LORD loves He disciplines, and He scourges every son whom He receives”;
Mukuti Simwine ukalimela bonse basuni, mi uha ikoto kuyese mwana yatambula.
7 if you endure discipline, God bears Himself to you as to sons, for who is a son whom a father does not discipline?
Mutundamene mukunyando sina mukalimelwa. Ireeza umitenda sinamubana. Kana kwina mwana yasa kalimelwa ni besi?
8 And if you are apart from discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are bastards, and not sons.
Kono haiba kamukalimelwa, kubaliabela bantu bonse, linuaho mubana bamulyani kamubakwe,
9 Then, indeed, we have had fathers of our flesh, correctors, and we respected [them]; will we not much rather be subject to the Father of the spirits, and live?
Kuwelaho, tubena beshetu bamunyama babali bakalimeli, imi tubali kubakuteka. Linuaho mutukangwe bule kukuteka Ishetu wehuho kuti tuhale?
10 For they, indeed, for a few days, according to what seemed good to them, were disciplining, but He for profit, to be partakers of His separation;
Mukuti chenzila yimwi, Beshetu batukalimela mumazuba alikene aboneka nenza kubali. Kono munzila yimwi, Ireeza ututendabulyo mukuti tuwana bulotu bwakuliyabela mukujolola kwakwe.
11 and all discipline for the present, indeed, does not seem to be of joy, but of sorrow, yet afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those exercised through it.
Kakwina ikalimelo iboneka bulotu mweyo inako, kono isasama. Nihakwinabulyo kumamaninizo ibika zihantu zekozo yakuluka kwabana babalutwa bulyo.
12 For this reason, lift up the hanging-down hands and the loosened knees;
Chobulyo mukoze mayaza enu adengelele ni mazwi enu akatele.
13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that which is lame may not be turned aside, but rather be healed;
Mupangile matende enu inzila ziwolekete, mukuti lichukuta kete nilisikuke kono mulihozwe.
14 pursue peace with all, and the separation, apart from which no one will see the LORD,
Mutundamene kuhala chekozo ni muntu umwi ni umwi, mi hape ni kunjolola haiba kakwinabulyo kakwina yense nabone Simwine.
15 observing lest anyone be failing of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up may give trouble, and through this many may be defiled;
Mutokomele kokuti kanjinikubi ni yetenabule chisemo che Ireeza, nikuti kakwina muhisi wina bubilala wete niukule kuleta bukabo, mukuti bangi kanji basinywa nawo.
16 lest anyone be a fornicator, or a profane person, as Esau, who in exchange for one morsel of food sold his birthright,
Mutokomele kuti kanji kuwaniki buhule kapa muntu yasayendi munzila ye Ireeza sina nji Isau, iye yabati kamulalilo umwina abawuzi bukulwana bwakwe.
17 for you know that also afterward, wishing to inherit the blessing, he was disapproved of, for he did not find a place of conversion, though having sought it with tears.
Mi mwizi kuti kuzwaho, halakaza kuyola imbuyoti, abakaninwa, kakuli kana abawani chibaka chakubaka, nihabananisi kazinsozi.
18 For you did not come near to the mountain touched and scorched with fire, and to blackness, and darkness, and storm,
Mukuti kanamubezi kwirundu liwolwa kukwatwa, irundu lyamulilo ubbukuka, kelima, kasihwe, ni liñungwa.
19 and a sound of a trumpet, and a voice of sayings, which those having heard begged that a word might not be added to them,
Kanamubezi kutolombita ilila, nandi inzwi liwamba kwabo bazuwile mbwiteli kwabo batekeleze kutakuti musiye isinyi limwi izwi musiye.
20 for they were not bearing that which is commanded, “And if a beast may touch the mountain, it will be stoned, or shot through with an arrow,”
Kakukuli kana babakuwola kutundamena itayelo ibabahelwe; “Haiba kuti chinyolozi hachikuma irundu, chiyelele kupwacholwa,
21 and (so terrible was the sight), Moses said, “I am exceedingly fearful, and trembling.”
“Chebaka lyakutiza hahulu kwecho chibabaka Mushe nati, “Nisuhite mane ni chachalika.”
22 But you came to Mount Zion, and to [the] city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of messengers,
Nihakwinabulyo, “mubezi kwi Lundu lya Siyone ni kumuleneni uhala we Ireeza, Jerusalema wakwiwulu, hape ni kumangiloi achita zikitikiti asangite.
23 to the assembly-place and Assembly of the Firstborn registered in Heaven, and to God the judge of all, and to spirits of righteous men made perfect,
Mubezi kukopano yabana bentazi, abo babañolwa mumbuka yakwiwulu. Mubezi kwe Ireeza, Muatuli wazonse, ni huho zabazakulukite babapangiwa balukite.
24 and to a mediator of a new covenant—Jesus, and to blood of sprinkling, speaking better things than that of Abel!
Imi mubezi kwa Jesu, musikululi wetumelelano inhya, ni malaha asanseletwe a wamba kuhita malaha a Abele.
25 Watch out lest you refuse Him who is speaking, for if those did not escape who refused him who was divinely speaking on earth—much less we who turn away from Him who [speaks] from Heaven,
Mubone kuti kamukani yokwete kuwamba. Mukuti haiba kana babawoli kubanduka habakana uzo yababakalimeli mukanda, naswe ketenituwole kubanduka haiba nitusandukila iye yokalimela kuzwilila kwiwulu.
26 whose voice shook the earth then, and now He has promised, saying, “Yet once [more]—I shake not only the earth, but also Heaven”;
Mwinako yimwi, Izwi lyakwe libanyungi ikanda. Kono hanu abahi isepiso mi nati, “Munako yimwi ketenininyunge fela ikanda, kono mane ni mawulu akwiwulu.”
27 and this, “Yet once [more],” makes evident the removal of the things shaken, as of things having been made, that the things not shaken may remain;
Aa manzwi, “Inako yimwi,” utalusa kuzwisa zimwi zintu ziwolwa kunyungwa, njikuti, kwezi zintu zibabumbitwe, kokuti zimwi zisanyungwa kazishale.
28 for this reason, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, may we have grace, through which we may serve God well-pleasingly, with reverence and fear,
Chobulyo, kutambula mubuso usanyanganiswa, tulitumele imi chiyi inzila tulumbeke Ireeza chekute ni kukomokwa.
29 for our God [is] also a consuming fire.
Mukuti Ireeza wentu mulilo uhisa.
