Hebrews 2
1 So, [since that is true], we must pay very careful attention to what we have heard [about God’s Son], in order that we do not drift away from it, [as a boat drifts off its course when people do not guide it] [MET].
Tua ahikom i zaksa thu te i bosua kik nawn ngawl natu hanciam in i kidawm seseam tu hi.
2 [God’s laws that] were given by angels were valid, and God justly punished all who rejected them and all who disobeyed [DOU] them.
Banghangziam cile vantung mite i pau kammal te kho a, thukham paltan le thu nit ngawl nate in a thutang thukkikna i thaman sang hi;
3 So, we will certainly not escape [God punishing us] if we ignore such a great [message about how God] [MTY] saves us! [RHQ] This [new message] was first spoken by the Lord [Jesus] {The Lord [Jesus] first spoke this [message]}. Then it was confirmed to us by those who heard [what the Lord told them] {those who heard [what the Lord told them] confirmed it to us}.
A kipatcil lai in Topa in son zo a, a za te i a kipsak hibangza a lian ngupna thu thusimngawl in i om le, bangbang in suakta thei tu hi ziam;
4 God also confirmed to us [that this message was true] by [enabling believers to do] many things that showed God’s power, to do other miraculous things [DOU], and [to do other things] by the gifts that the Holy Spirit distributed to them according to what [God] desired.
Pathian in zong musakna te le nalamdang tampi, nalamdang tatuam le Tha Thiangtho letsong te taw Ama deina bang in tettipang hi.
5 God has determined that the angels will not rule over everything. [Instead, he has determined that Christ] will rule in the new world that [God] will [create]. [That is the new world] about which I am writing.
Banghangziam cile i son sa hongpai pheang tu leitung uk tu in vantungmi te koi ngawl hi.
6 Someone spoke to [God about this] somewhere [in the Scriptures], saying, (No one is worthy enough for you to think about him!/Who is [worthy enough] for you to think about him?) [RHQ] (No human is [worthy enough] for you to care for him!/Is any human [worthy enough] for you to care for him?) [RHQ]
Ahihang mi khat in munkhat ah, nong phaw natu in mihing sia bang hi thong ziam? a hibale, mihing tapa sia nangma in banghang ve nuam ni ziam?
7 [So it is surprising that] you have caused people to be for a little while inferior in rank to angels. You have greatly honored [DOU] them [MET], as [kings are honored with] a crown.
Nangma in vantung mite sang in tawm a niam zaw hiat in na vawt a; minthanna le zatakna na khusak hi, taciang na khut i nasep nate tung ah na koi hi:
8 You have put everything under people’s control [MET]. God has determined that people will rule over absolutely everything [LIT]. But now, at this present time, we perceive that people do not yet have authority over everything.
Na theampo a peang nuai ah na koi hi, ci in tettipang hi. Banghangziam cile, na theampo a peang nuai ah koi hi a ci ciang, a peang nuai ah a koi ngawl khat zong om ngawl hi. Ahihang, a peang nuai ah na theampo koi hi, ci sia tu in i mu balai hi.
9 But we do know about Jesus, [who truly has authority over everything]! Hebrews 2:9b-13 Jesus, for a little while, became inferior [in rank] to angels in order to die on behalf of [MET] everyone. He became inferior when he suffered [and] died, as God kindly [planned]. But now he has been greatly [honored] [DOU] [by being] crowned [as kings are].
Ahihang Pathian thuthiamna tungtawn in, mihing theampo atu thina tep tu in, vantungmi te sang in tawm a niamzaw in vawt a, thina a thuak hu in minthanna le zatakna a khuhsak Jesus i mu hi;
10 It was fitting that [God] make [Jesus] (perfect/all that God intended him to be). God was enabling many people who would belong to him [MET] to share his glory. God [is the one who] created all things, and [he is the one] for whom all things [exist]. [He perfected Jesus] by causing him to suffer [and die]. [Jesus] is the one whom [God] uses to save people.
Banghangziam cile Ama atu le Ama hang in na theampo om a, tapa tampi minthanna sung ah tumpui tu ahizong, amate ngupna sia thuakna tungtawn in a khuangkhim thei natu ahizong, Ama sia makai a hi hamtang kul hi.
11 [Jesus] is the one who (makes people holy/sets people apart for God), and they all belong to God’s family. [As a result, Christ] gladly [LIT] proclaims them to be [like] his own brothers [and sisters].
Banghangziam cile a thianthosak pa le a thianthosak te sia pum khat a hihi: tua ahikom ama in suapui te awng, ci in sap tu sia a mai a zum bua hi,
12 [The Psalmist wrote what Christ said to God about us becoming] his brothers, in these words: I will proclaim to my brothers how awesome you are (OR, what you ([are like/have done])) [MTY]. I will sing praise to you in the presence of the congregation!
Ka suapui te tung ah na min ka pualak tu hi, mipi te sung ah nangma pokna la ka sa tu hi, ci hi.
13 And a prophet wrote [in] another [Scripture passage what Christ said about God], I will trust him. And in another [Scripture passage, Christ said about those who are like his] children, I and the ones that God has given me are here.
Taciang, ama sung ah ka muanna ka koi tu hi, ci kik hi. Taciang, en vun, keima le Pathian i hongpiak tate, zong cikik lai hi.
14 So, since those [whom God calls his] children are all human beings [MTY], Jesus also became a human being [just like them]. The devil has the power to cause people [to be afraid] to die, but Christ became human in order that by his dying he might make the devil powerless.
Tate in cilesa le thisan kibanpui a hibangma in, Ama zong thina tungtawn in thina i vangletna, doaimangpa a suksiat thei natu ahizong;
15 [Jesus did that] to free all of us who are like slaves [MET] all the time we live, because we are [forced to] be afraid to die.
Taciang nuntak sung theampo thina lau in sal taang te ngum tu in ahizong, cilesa le thisan neipui tema a hihi.
16 Because [Jesus became a human being], it is not angels whom he wants to help. No, it is we who trust God as Abraham did whom he wants to help.
Banghangziam cile a tatak ciciang Ama in vantung mite hu ngawl a; Abraham i suan te hu hi.
17 So, [since he came to help humans, not angels], he had to be made exactly like [us whom he calls] his own brothers [and sisters]. He wants to be a Supreme Priest who [acts] mercifully [to all people] and who faithfully does what God wants, so that people who had sinned would be declared no longer guilty.
Tua ahikom mihing te mawna atu thin-uk thaina vawt tu in Pathian taw kisai nate sung ah, hesuak thei le a muantak thiampi sang a hi thei natu in, na theampo sung ah suapui te bang in vawt kul hi.
18 [Specifically], he is able to help those/us who are tempted [to sin]. He can do that because he suffered, and he was also tempted [to sin like we are tempted to sin].
Banghangziam cile Ama tatak in ze-etna a thuak hu in, ze-etna a thuak te hu thei hi.
