< 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].
Proto se musíme pečlivě držet nebeských pravd, které jsme slyšeli. Jinak pro nás pozbudou smyslu.
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.
Poselství vyřizované anděly se vždy prokázalo jako pravdivé a lidé, kteří si od nich nedali říci, nikdy neunikli trestu.
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}.
Co nás proto opravňuje k tomu, abychom se domnívali, že nám beztrestně projde, když si nebudeme všímat příležitosti k záchraně, kterou nám nabízel sám Pán a nyní ještě nabízí prostřednictvím svých svědků?
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.
Bůh sám potvrzoval pravdivost těchto nebeských poselství znameními, divy, různými projevy své moci a tím, že věřícím rozděloval prostřednictvím svatého Ducha v rozličné míře zvláštní schopnosti k vzájemné službě.
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.
Budoucí svět, o kterém mluvíme, nebude podroben andělům,
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]
ale Ježíši a lidem, kteří v něho uvěřili. V Písmu se o Ježíši říká: „Kdo je člověk, že na něho pamatuješ a že se o něj tak staráš?
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.
Jen na krátko jsi ho postavil níž než anděly, ale pak jsi ho obdařil slávou a ctí
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.
a všechno jsi mu podrobil. Nic nebylo vyňato z jeho pravomoci.“Zatím ještě nevidíme, že by mu bylo všechno podrobeno.
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].
Zato je zřejmé, že Ježíše, který byl na chvíli menší než andělé, Bůh opatřil slávou a ctí, protože za každého z nás vytrpěl smrt.
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.
A bylo správné, že Ježíš – skrze něhož a pro něhož bylo všechno stvořeno – přivedl mnohé do slávy. Tato záchrana se uskutečnila skrze jeho utrpení.
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].
Všimněte si, že ten, který vede, i ti, kteří jsou vedeni, mají stejný původ. Ježíš se nestydí nazývat je svými bratry, protože říká:
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!
„Budu svým bratrům ohlašovat tvé jméno. Budu tě oslavovat spolu s jinými.“
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.
A jindy říká: „Spolehnu se na Boha.“A dále: „Hle, já a děti, které mi dal Bůh.“
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.
Protože sourozence spojuje tělo a krev, stal se i Ježíš člověkem,
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.
aby svou smrtí zlomil moc ďábla, který ovládá smrt, a osvobodil ty, kteří procházejí životem zotročeni neustálým strachem ze smrti.
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.
Je přece jasné, že pomoc, kterou Ježíš přinesl, neplatí andělům, ale Abrahamovým potomkům.
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.
Proto se nám musel ve všem připodobnit, aby se stal před Bohem naším milosrdným a důvěryhodným prostředníkem a smírcem.
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].
Protože podstoupil pokušení, může pomáhat těm, kteří procházejí zkouškami.
