< Hebrews 2 >
1 Therefore we must give still more heed to what we were taught, so we do not drift away.
Rumal kꞌu riꞌ sibꞌalaj rajawaxik kaqakoj retal ri qatatabꞌem, rech jeriꞌ man kujsach ta kanoq.
2 For, if the message which was delivered by angels had its authority confirmed, so that every offense against it, or neglect of it, met with a fitting requital,
Rumal we ri tzij ri xtzijox kumal ri angelibꞌ ko xutayij xuqujeꞌ ri man xeniman taj xqꞌat tzij pa kiwiꞌ jetaq ri qas taqal chike.
3 how can we, of all people, expect to escape, if we disregard so great a salvation? It was the Master who at the outset spoke of this salvation, and its authority was confirmed for us by those who heard him,
Qas kaqꞌat kꞌu wi na tzij pa qawiꞌ we man nim kaqilo ri koltajem ri katzuj chaqe. Are ri Ajawxel xyoꞌw loq ubꞌixik nabꞌe jas ubꞌanik we koltajem riꞌ, xuqujeꞌ ri xetowik xkibꞌij chaqe chi qas jeriꞌ wi ubꞌanik.
4 while God himself added his testimony to it by signs, and marvels, and many different miracles, as well as by imparting the Holy Spirit as he saw fit.
Ri Dios xuqujeꞌ xukꞌutu ri uqꞌalajisanik rukꞌ mayijabꞌal taq jastaq xuqujeꞌ sibꞌalaj kꞌi kꞌutbꞌal, kꞌi sipanik ri xuyaꞌo rumal ri urayibꞌal kuꞌx ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.
5 God has not given to angels the control of that future world of which we are speaking!
Ri Dios man xubꞌan ta chike ri angelibꞌ chi kabꞌan ke puꞌwiꞌ ri uwachulew ri kape na.
6 No; a writer has declared somewhere – ‘What are mere mortals that you should remember them? Or human beings that you should care for them?
Jetaq ri xubꞌij loq jun ojer: ¿Jas ubꞌanik ri winaq che ri kel kuꞌx la che? ¿Jas ubꞌanik rijaꞌl ri winaq rech jeriꞌ kakoj la pa kuenta?
7 You have made them, for a while, lower than angels; with glory and honor you have crowned them; you have set them over all that your hands have made;
Koꞌl uqꞌij xbꞌan la che chikiwach ri angelibꞌ, xya la ri juluwem che xuqujeꞌ xya la uqꞌij.
8 you have placed all things beneath their feet.’ This ‘placing of everything’ under humanity means that there was nothing which was not placed under them. As yet, however, we do not see everything placed under humanity.
Xbꞌan la che chi kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ronojel ri jastaq. We are ri Dios xbꞌanow che chi kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ronojel ri jastaq, Are kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ronojel ri jastaq. Pune kaqilo chi kamik kꞌamajaꞌ na kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ronojel.
9 What our eyes do see is Jesus, who was made for a while lower than angels, now, because of his sufferings and death, crowned with glory and honor; so that his tasting the bitterness of death should, in God’s loving kindness, be on behalf of all humanity.
Pune jeriꞌ, kaqilo chi ri Jesús xbꞌan kꞌol uqꞌij che chikiwach ri angelibꞌ, xya unimal uqꞌij xuqujeꞌ juluwem che rumal xuriq ri kamikal. Xaq jeriꞌ rumal ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios, ri kamikal ri xuriq ri Jesús kꞌo xutayij chaqe qonojel.
10 It was, indeed, fitting that God, for whom and through whom all things exist, should, when leading many children to glory, make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering.
Jeriꞌ rumal taqal che ri tikol rech ronojel ri jastaq xuqujeꞌ ri yoꞌwinaq ukꞌaslemal ronojel ri kꞌolik, xubꞌano chi xuriq kꞌax ri bꞌanal rech ri koltajem rech jeriꞌ kuꞌkꞌam na bꞌik e kꞌi pa ri juluwem.
11 For he who purifies, and those whom he purifies, all spring from One; and therefore he is not ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters.
Jeriꞌ rumal cher ri katyoxirisanik xuqujeꞌ ri keꞌtyoxirisaxik, xa jun aꞌjchoqꞌe; rumal riꞌ ri Jesús man kukꞌixibꞌej taj ubꞌixik rachalal chike.
12 He says – ‘I will tell of your name to my brothers and sisters, in the midst of the congregation I will sing your praise.’
Rumal riꞌ xubꞌij: Kintzijoj na ri bꞌiꞌ la chike ri e wachalal; chikixoꞌl konojel ri komontyox la, kinqꞌijilaꞌj na ri bꞌiꞌ la.
13 And again – ‘As for me, I will put my trust in God.’ And yet again – ‘See, here am I and the children whom God gave me.’
Xuqujeꞌ junmul chik xubꞌij: Kajeqiꞌ na kꞌuꞌx chirij ri Dios, xuqujeꞌ kutzꞌaqatisaj ubꞌixik: Chi riꞌ in kꞌo wi kukꞌ ri e ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios ri xuꞌya chwe.
14 Therefore, since human nature is the common heritage of the children, Jesus also shared it, in order that by death he might render powerless him whose power lies in death – that is, the devil –
Rumal kꞌu che ri xaq e tyoꞌj xuqujeꞌ e bꞌaq e wokowinaq, rumal riꞌ xujunamaj ribꞌ ri Jesús kukꞌ rech rumal ri ukamikal xuchekꞌ ri Itzel rumal chi are ri Itzel kabꞌan kan rech nabꞌe puꞌwiꞌ ri kamikal,
15 and so might deliver all those who, from fear of death, had all their lives been living in slavery.
rech jeriꞌ kekiritaj na konojel ri xa rumal ri xibꞌin ibꞌ cho ri kamikal e kꞌo kanoq chuxeꞌ ri jatꞌibꞌal.
16 It was not, surely, to the help of the angels that Jesus came, but to the help of the descendants of Abraham.
Rumal cher ri Jesús man xpe taj chikitoꞌik ri angelibꞌ xane xpe chikitoꞌik ri e rijaꞌl ri Abraham.
17 And consequently it was necessary that he should in all points be made like his brothers and sisters, in order that he might prove a merciful as well as a faithful high priest in humanity’s relations with God, for the purpose of expiating the sins of his people.
Rumal riꞌ tzi choqꞌaqꞌ wi chi kajunumataj kukꞌ ri e rachalal, rech jeriꞌ kux ri nimalaj sukꞌ xuqujeꞌ toqꞌobꞌisal wach chꞌawenel cho ri Dios pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq rech jeriꞌ kuchup ronojel ri makaj rech ri tinimit.
18 The fact that he himself suffered under temptation enables him to help those who are tempted.
Ri Jesús are xuriq kꞌax xtaqchiꞌx chubꞌanik mak, rumal kꞌu riꞌ kamik rukꞌ ri ukwinem kakwinik kuꞌtoꞌ konojel ri ketaqchiꞌx chubꞌanik mak.
