Hebrews 12
1 Seeing, therefore, that there is on every side of us such a throng of witnesses, let us also lay aside everything that hinders us, and the sin that clings about us, and run with patient endurance the race that lies before us,
Seng raangtaan ibah, haaki arah loong ah kookchap hali. Erah raangtaan ih seng tootmui soon li lam adi tim phaklak la nyia rangdah ih tangjoh hali ah thinhaat ih, eno seng thung nah tootmui soon ah kamkam ih thun ino soon ih.
2 our eyes fixed on Jesus, the leader and perfect example of our faith, who, for the joy that lay before him, endured the cross, heedless of its shame, and now ‘has taken his seat at the right hand’ of the throne of God.
Seng mik ah Jisu taangko sok ih, ngo suh ephang dowa ih ethoon tuk ih seng tuungmaang jeela erah wah asuh ah. Heh bangphak ni chamnaang thoi tah thin haatta! mamah liidih tenroon ah heh jaakhoh ni ban tongta, heh ih bangphak nah tek suh rakrek tenthun tah jeeta, eno amadi Rangte tongtheng dakchah ko adi tongla.
3 Weigh well the example of him who had to endure such opposition from ‘people who were sinning against themselves,’ so that you should not grow weary or faint-hearted.
Taatthun thaak an heh di mamah angta rah ah; Heh ih timthan jen naanta rangdah mina loong ih taat miksuk rumta di ah! Erah raangtaan ih sen teenuh teewah thung nak joong theng nyia nak toihaat theng.
4 You have not yet, in your struggle with sin, resisted to the death;
Sen roidong di rangdah damdoh mui raangtaan ih khoh laan mat ruh bah amadi tuk ih maang thaak naan kan.
5 and you have forgotten the encouraging words which are addressed to you as God’s children – ‘My child, think not lightly of the Lord’s discipline, do not despond when he rebukes you;
Rangte ih sen loong suh heh sah dakbi thun hanno tenchaan kot jengkhaap baat tahan rah beehaat tam ehan? “Nga sah, Teesu ih huk baat handoh sen thung ah koh an, Nak thungjoong an heh ih choophaan handoh ah.
6 For it is him whom he loves that he disciplines, and he chastises every child whom he acknowledges.’
Timnge liidih Teesu ih marah minchan ha erah suh huk baat ha, eno marah heh sah ngeh ih ekap eha erah suh hoocham thuk ih la.”
7 It is for your discipline that you have to endure all this. God is dealing with you as his children. For where is there a child whom his father does not discipline?
Maama wah ih hoocham thuk eha ah enaan etheng; Rangte ih sen loong suh heh sah lakbi thun halan ah sen chamnaang lan rah ih jat ha. Heh wah ih lataat hoocham thukka rah heh sah eje tam ah?
8 If you are left without that discipline, in which all children share, it shows that you are bastards, and not true children.
Sen loong ah heh sah ang anno lah hoocham thuk thang mok ang an bah, sen loong ah sami tah ang kan, enoothong sen loong ah paansah.
9 Further, when our earthly fathers disciplined us, we respected them. Should we not, then, much rather yield submission to the Father of souls, and live?
Mina ang ibah sengwah loong ih hoocham thuk ehe, eno neng ah echoomjoot ehi. Erah ang abah chiiala Wah lakhui nah batang aleh timthan wangjih ang ah! eno heh suh look haat ano thing tongjih ang ah!
10 Our fathers disciplined us for only a short time and as seemed best to them; but God disciplines us for our true good, to enable us to share his holiness.
Hansi di hewah loong ih chomroi raangtaan ih hoocham thuk hali marah neng raangtaan ih punla adi ah, enoothong Rangte reela abah seng loong ese ang raangtaan ih reela, enooba heh esa adoh roongroop ih.
11 No discipline is pleasant at the time; on the contrary, it is painful. But afterward its fruit is seen in the peacefulness of a righteous life which is the lot of those who have been trained under it.
Seng ehoocham thuk ehali adi, chomroi raangtaan ih tenroon lah ang thang tenchi ang thuk hali. Ang abah uh linah marah mina asuh hoocham thuk ano sekthukla erah thaang ah kateng roidong di angla semroongroong thaang chotheng ah choh ah.
12 Therefore ‘lift again the down-dropped hands and straighten the weakened knees;
Erah raangtaan ih an lak enaang elu rah toon uh, eno an lakuh mootnaang lu rah rong chap uh!
13 make straight paths for your feet,’ so that the lame limb may not be put out of joint, but rather be cured.
Lamjun adoh khoom ruh eh uh, ekoong anglu rah toom rong khoom uh, erah nang ibah ede thong toom eh uh.
14 Try earnestly to live at peace with everyone, and to attain to that purity without which no one will see the Lord.
Thoontang damdoh semroongroong angsuh thun uh, eno esa roidong ih tong suh thun uh, mamah liidih erah lah ang kaabah Teesu tah chotup ko ang ah.
15 Take care that no one fails to use the loving help of God, ‘that no bitterness is allowed to take root and spring up, and cause trouble,’ and so poison the whole community.
Thungkhom ih tongtheng Rangte minchan nawa ladok soon suh ah. Ngo mina uh khadikdik me asu bangphook ang ano mih chamthuk ah likhiik nak ang an.
16 Take care that no one becomes immoral, or irreligious like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal.
Ngo uh Isau likhiik mih damdoh roongjup roongtong lah angtheng edoleh chiiala lamdoh larook lata lah angtheng, phokhoh men ah phaksat jaasiit satdi sangta likhiik ah.
17 For you know that even afterward, when he wished to claim his father’s blessing, he was rejected – for he never found an opportunity to repair his error – though he begged for the blessing with tears.
Ejat nih ehan, lini hewah roomseetam ah chosuh taat nookta; enoothong heh engaak eta, timnge liidih ehuung taat ih ah bah uh marah reeta erah we lek suh lamhoh takah jeeta,
18 It is not to tangible ‘flaming fire’ that you have drawn near, nor to ‘gloom, and darkness, and storm,
Sen loong ah Ijirel mina Sinai Kong ni we luungta nyia rangnak khukhuh, moonheeheek, pong ange angta adi wang rumta likhiik tawang ran,
19 and the blast of a trumpet, and an audible voice.’ Those who heard that voice entreated that they might hear no more,
luirong erongwah ih huungmot arah nyia eriing eraak ih arah angta. Mih loong ah ih miroot ah chaat arah khotok doh nak toom kah we chaat ih ngeh riing huung rumla,
20 for they could not bear to think of the command – ‘If even an animal touches the mountain, it is to be stoned to death;’
timnge liidih neng loong ih thaaraamta ah kapchaat rum ano tajen naan rumta, eradi amah liita, “Chok awak ih kong ah paanak abah kong rah ih tekpat etheng.”
21 and so fearful was the sight that Moses said – ‘I tremble with fear.’
Marah noisokta erah micho miphaan ang kano Moses ih liita, “Ngah rapne emoot cho elang!”
22 No, but it is to Mount Zion that you have drawn near, the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to countless hosts of angels,
Enoothong sen Jaion Kong ni nyia Ething Rangte samnuthung adi wang tahan, marah rangmong Jerusalem liiha eno rangsah hantek tongla eradi ah.
23 to the festal gathering and assemblage of God’s firstborn whose names are enrolled in heaven, to God the judge of all people, to the spirits of the righteous who have attained perfection,
Ngo men rangmong ni raangha erah loong ah Rangte sah phokhoh nakhoh ih hoon ano tenroon theng adi lomtong lan, eno erah Rangte jiinni wang halan, marah ih mina kah dande ah nyia ese mina ah epun ih hoonla erah chiiala taang ni sen wang halan.
24 to Jesus, the intermediary of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that tells of better things than the blood of Abel.
Marah ih ena nuumiijeng khookhamte nyia Abel sih thaknang ibah ese thoon kakham hoonta sih hakte Jisu taang ni wang halan.
25 Beware how you refuse to hear him who is speaking. For, if the Israelites did not escape punishment, when they refused to listen to him who taught them on earth the divine will, far worse will it be for us, if we turn away from him who is teaching us from heaven.
Banban ih ban tong an, eno marah jengla erah lachaat thang nak eh an. Arah hatoh ni esa ruurang baat ha rah lachaat thang ih ngo tong ah erah mina abah tajen hottongka. Rangmong nawa marah jengla erah jeng lachaat mok ang ubah ehottong esuh echaan ang ah!
26 Then his voice shook the earth, but now his declaration is – ‘Still once more I will cause not only the earth to tremble, but also the heavens.’
Erah tokdi heh jengkhaap nawa ih hatoh ah moot hoomta, Enoothong belam heh ih kakhamta, “Ngah ih jaasiit than we nyoong ang doh hatoh luulu lah angthang rangmong nep nyoong ang.”
27 And those words ‘still once more’ indicate the passing away of all that is shaken – that is, of all created things – in order that only what is unshaken may remain.
Jengkhaap loong “Taksiit we boot baatta” rah ih noisok ha timthan dong hoonchoi loong ah enyoong eh ah nyia tah tong thukka ang ah, erah doba marah lajen moot nyoongka erah ba chengtong ah.
28 Therefore, let us, who have received a kingdom that cannot be shaken, be thankful, and so offer acceptable worship to God, with awe and the deepest respect.
Lakookmi li thung angtheng timnge ah lajen moot nyoongka hasong ah choli, heh tenroon thuk suh seng echo lam ih nyia heh choomjoot lam ih eno lakookmi jenglam ih heh rang ah soom ih;
29 For our God is ‘a consuming fire.’
Mamah liidih seng Rangte ah jirep thet haatte we.
