< Hebrews 12 >

1 We [know about] many people like that [who showed they trusted in God]. They are like a crowd of spectators [who are cheering for us inside a stadium] [MET]. Knowing that, we must put away all the things that hinder us, [as a runner puts aside everything that would hinder him because they are heavy] [MET]. Especially we must put away sinful actions that [hinder us, as a runner] sets aside clothes he does not need, clothes that would entangle him [MET]. Let us [wholeheartedly strive to achieve what God has planned for us, as someone] in a race wholeheartedly runs the course that is before him [MET].
Ishi piotizyu ugulilwe ni bhango igosi ilya keti titaje kila sheshitutamya peka ni mbibhi zyezihutuzyungura nanali tushimbile husaburi humashinda gegabhi shilwe mwilongolela yitu.
2 And let us [keep our minds on] Jesus, [as a runner] keeps his eyes on [the goal] [MET]. Jesus is the one we should imitate in the way he perfectly trusted [God. When he died on] the cross he endured it as he suffered greatly [MTY], instead of [thinking about the things he would] rejoice about [later]. He disregarded being disgraced by [dying that way]. He is now sitting at the place of highest honor [MTY] at the throne [where God rules].
Timenye uYesu yahandisizye na amalizye ulwitiho lwitu, huwinza wewubhi hwilwe mwilongolela lyakwe, ahajimbilye munshikhobhekhanyo ahazisufizye insoni zyakwe ahakhiye hunkono ugwalile, pitengo ilyapamwanya ilya Ngulubhi.
3 [Jesus] patiently endured it when sinful people acted so hostilely against him. Try to act the way he did, so that you do not give up [trusting] God or become discouraged.
Musiibhanje umwene yahajimbiliye inongwa izyavisye afume hubhabhomba imbabhi ashile umwene yayo aje msahalite nafwe amoyo ginyu.
4 While you have struggled against [being tempted to] sin, you have not yet bled [and died because of resisting evil, as Jesus did].
Semlabhile na yimbe le mushindana ni mbibhi kiasi shahwitishe idanda.
5 Do not forget [RHQ] these words [that Solomon spoke to his son, that are the same as God] would exhort you as his children: My child, pay attention [LIT] when the Lord is disciplining you, and do not be discouraged when the Lord punishes you [DOU],
Habhili msahiwe hubhapele umwoyo huhubhwatwala huje mlibhana bhishilume: “Mwana wani usahegwe hupupusu amagalushila ga Gosi, habhili usaholowe lwe Ungulubhi ahulinganya.
6 because it is everyone whom he loves whom the Lord disciplines, and he punishes everyone whom he accepts as his child.
Pipo Ugosi ahumwela wonti yaganile ahunsovya umwana wakwe yahumposhela.
7 It is in order that God may discipline you that he requires you to endure the disagreeable things [that happen to you]. [When God disciplines you] he is treating you as a father treats his children. All fathers [RHQ] discipline their children [LIT].
Jimba injelo ndeshe awelelwe Ungulubhi babhomba namwendeshe shabhomba na bhana bhabhakwe, ishi mwana bhuli ye uyise wakwe saga ahuwela?
8 So, if you have not experienced God disciplining you just like he disciplines all his other children, you are [not true children of God] [MET]. [You are like] illegitimate children; [no father disciplines them].
Nkushe nahumo uhwawelwe hwe ati twenti tiwelwa basi amwe saga mulibhanabhakwe.
9 Furthermore, our natural fathers disciplined us [when we were young], and we respected them for doing that. So we should certainly more readily accept God our spiritual Father disciplining us, with the result that we live eternally [RHQ]!
Zaidi yipo tali na yise bhitu abha munsi abhahutiwele twabhapiye inshinshi. Je sihwanziwa ati humwitishe uGosi wishimwoyo na akhale?
10 Our natural fathers disciplined us for a short time in a way that they considered right, [but it wasn’t always right], but God always disciplines us [in a right way], to help us. He does it so that we may be holy as he is.
Huhakika ayise bhitu bhatishetile humaha madodo shilolosya hwabhene sheshisho, lakini Ungulubhi ahutisheta hufaida yakwe tibhe nke tibhe bhagolosu.
11 During the time that God is disciplining us, that does not seem to be something about which we should rejoice. Instead, it is something that pains us. But later it causes those who have learned from it to be peaceful and to [live] righteously.
Nahumo ashetwe hwehuleta ashe. Huwakati uwo abhe. Hubhabha. Hata shinisho agigolosu hubhala bhebhamaayizizwe nago.
12 So, [instead of acting as though you were spiritually exhausted], renew yourselves [MET] spiritually.
Isi mubhusye amakhono ginyu gega yetile, na mafugamo ginyu gesagali ni nguvu gabhe ni nguvu habhili;
13 Go straight forward [in your Christian life] [MET], in order that believers who are uncertain about their faith [will imitate you] and not ([leave God’s way/] useless [to God]) [MET]. Instead, they will be spiritually restored [MET] as an injured and useless limb is restored.
mugolosye injendo zyinyayo zyinyu, ili huje wowonti yali nu nishilema salongozwe huteganu abhe mwumi.
14 Try to live peacefully with all people. Seek to be holy, since no one will see the Lord if he is not holy.
Muwanze utenganu na bhantu bhonti nuwo ugolosu bila yuwo ugolosu mumo yayinda Ungulubhi.
15 Beware that none of you stops [trusting in] God, [who has done kind things for us that we did not deserve] (OR, Beware that you have never [experienced] God kindly [saving you]). Be on guard lest any of you [act in an evil way towards others], because your doing that will [grow like] [MET] a root [grows into a big plant], and the result [of your] doing that will be that many believers will sin and become unacceptable to God.
Mwenyelezyaje asahabhe umuntu wowonti yahwepa mushibanza isha Ngulubhi, huje lisahinze ishina ilyibhu bhuchungu lyelibhamele na sababisye ishida hu bhantu abhinji huneshe Ungulubhi.
16 Do not let anyone be immoral, or be irreligious as Esau was. He exchanged the rights he had as a firstborn son for only one meal.
Mwenye huje nazimo izinaa au umuntu yesegolosu ndeshe u Esau, ye pipo yishalye sheka ahakazizye ihaki yakwe iyapapwe.
17 You know that after he did that, he wanted to receive [what his father would promise to give him if] he blessed him. But [his father] was unable [to change what he had already done]. And Esau found no way to change things, even though he sought tearfully to do that.
Pipo muminye aje shamandi ahanyonywa aoyane insayo ahakhanwa, pipo saga ahapite ifasi iya khomoshe peka nuyise wakwe pope haat nkahanzale hani humansozi.
18 In coming [to God] you have not [experienced things like what the Israeli people experienced] at [Sinai] Mountain. [They] approached [a mountain that God told them they] should not touch. [They approached] a blazing fire, and it was gloomy and dark [DOU], and there was a hurricane/cyclone.
Pipo semwahaminye igamba lyelinga khatwa, Igamba lyelihwaha umwoto, alete azilamwe ahavurungwi.
19 They heard a trumpet sounding and they heard [God] speak. The result was that those who heard it pleaded for God not to speak to them like that again.
Semwahamnye indudwe mizwi lisababisya bhebhahwinvwa bhasahalabhe izwi lyolyonti ayangwe hwa bhene.
20 When [God] commanded them saying, “If [a person or] even an animal touches this mountain, [you] must [kill him/it by] throwing stones at him/it,” they were terrified.
Pipo sebhabhweziye agulilile zila zyezyamulilwe: “Huje hata mnyama asahakhate igamba lazima akhomwe na mawe.”
21 Truly, because Moses was terrified after seeing what happened [on the mountain], he said, “I am trembling because I am very afraid!”
Aga hwogofye hani gagalolile uMusa ahajile, “Inogope hani mpaka na yinje”.
22 Instead, [it is as though] you have come to [the presence of God in heaven] [MET]. [That is like what your ancestors did when they came to worship] God on Zion Hill, in Jerusalem, in the city of God who is all-powerful. You have come (OR, you are coming) to where there are countless angels, who are rejoicing as they have gathered together.
Badala yakwe mwinzile mwigamba i Sayuni na mukhaya ya Ngulubhi yalimwumi, i Yerusalemu iya humwanya na hwa bhantumi elfu kumi bhebhaseshelela.
23 You have joined all the believers [who have privileges like] firstborn sons, whose names [God] has written down in heaven. You have come to God, who will judge everyone. You have come to where the spirits of God’s people are, people who lived righteously [before they died], and who now have been made perfect [in heaven].
Mwinzile mwibhunganyo ilya bhapapwe abhahwande bhonti bhebhandi hwilwe humwanya hwa Ngulubhi uhakimu wa bhonti, nu umpepo umfinjile bhasimishiziwilwe.
24 You have come to Jesus, who arranged a new covenant [between us and God]. You have accepted [what he accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died on the cross. His doing that made it possible for God to forgive us]. That is better than the blood of Abel, [who just] wanted revenge because his brother Cain murdered him.
Mwinzile hwa Yesu unkhomanyiwi ndajizyo ipya na hwidanda yiyitilizizwe yeyiyanga aminza hani kuliko idanda lya Habili.
25 Beware that you do not refuse to listen to [God] who is speaking to you. The Israeli people did not escape [God punishing them] when [Moses] (OR, [God]) warned them here on earth. So we shall surely not escape [God punishing us] if we reject him when he warns us from heaven! [RHQ]
Unyenyaje usahankhane weka ya yanga. Nkushe sagabha hepushe lwebhahankhana weka ya bhasuntile pansi ipa lyoli setwaiyepuha nketigulana apatali afume hwula yahutusoha afume humwanya.
26 The earth shook [PRS] then when he spoke [MTY] [at Sinai Mountain]. But now he has promised, “I will shake the earth again, one more time, but I will shake heaven too.”
Hu wakati uwo izwi lyake lyayinzizye insi. Lakini umwene atipiye habhili simbayizye nnsi nyeene hata imwanya yope.”
27 The words “again, one more time” indicate that things [on earth] will be shaken {that [he] will shake things [on earth]}, meaning that he will set aside all that [he] has created, in order that the things [in heaven] that cannot be shaken {that nothing can shake} may remain forever.
Amazwi inga, “Mara moja habhili,” ilolesya ahwefwe hu vintu vyevinzwa visyale, hivi ni, vitu vile ambavyo vimeumbwa, ili kwamba vile vitu visivyotetemeshwa vibakie.
28 So, let us thank God that we are becoming members of a kingdom that nothing can shake. Let us worship/serve God in a way that pleases him by being greatly in awe [DOU] before him.
Ishi tiposhele ubhumwini bhwe saga bhuyizwa tishanje hwi lihumpute Ungulubhi hwa humitishe peka na hwoshe hwisho,
29 Remember that the God we [worship/serve] is like a fire that burns up everything [that is impure] [MET]!
maana Ungulubhi witu moto webhulya.
