Hebrews 12
1 Wherefore, seeing we also are encompassed with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset [us], and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
Kale nga bwe tulina ekibiina ekinene eky’abajulirwa ekyenkana awo, twambulengamu buli ekizitowa, awamu n’ekibi ekitwesibako amangu, tuddukenga n’okugumiikiriza embiro ez’empaka ezatutegekerwa,
2 Looking to Jesus the author and finisher of [our] faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
nga tutunuulira Yesu eyatandika okukkiriza era y’akutuukiriza, olw’essanyu lye yali alindirira bwe yagumiikiriza omusaalaba, ng’anyooma ensonyi, n’atuula ku luuyi olwa ddyo olw’entebe ya Katonda.
3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
Kale mulowooze oyo eyagumiikiriza okuwakanyizibwa okw’abakozi b’ebibi bwe kutyo, mulemenga okukoowa mu mmeeme zammwe nga mutendewererwa ne mu mutima.
4 Ye have not yet resisted to blood, striving against sin.
Temunnalwanagana na kibi okutuusa ne kukuyiwa omusaayi!
5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh to you as to children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked by him:
Mwerabidde ebigambo ebizzaamu amaanyi byayogera nammwe ng’abaana be? Agamba nti, “Mwana wange, tonyoomanga kukangavvulwa kwa Mukama, so toggwangamu maanyi ng’akunenyezza.
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
Kubanga Mukama gw’ayagala amukangavvula, Era abonereza buli gw’ayita omwana we.”
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons: for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
Noolwekyo mugumiikirize okukangavvulwa, kubanga Katonda abakangavvula ng’abaana be. Mwana ki kitaawe gw’atakangavvula?
8 But if ye are without chastisement, of which all are partakers, then are ye bastards and not sons.
Naye singa temukangavvulwa, nga bwe kitugwanira ffenna, muba temuli baana be ddala.
9 Furthermore, we have had fathers of our flesh who corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?
Kale, nga bwe mussaamu ekitiibwa bakitaffe ab’omubiri, newaakubadde nga batukangavvula, nga batuyigiriza, kitaawe w’emyoyo talisinga nnyo okutukangavvula ne tuba abalamu?
10 For they verily for a few days chastened [us] after their own pleasure; but he for [our] profit, that [we] might be partakers of his holiness.
Bakitaffe ab’omubiri baatugunjulira ennaku si nnyingi, naye ye atugunjula tugasibwe tulyoke tusobole okugabanira awamu naye mu butukuvu bwe.
11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless, afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness to them who are exercised by it.
Okukangavvulwa kwonna mu biro ebya kaakano tekufaanana nga kwa ssanyu, kuba kwa bulumi, naye oluvannyuma kuleeta ebibala eby’emirembe eri abo abayigirizibwa, era ekivaamu bwe butuukirivu.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
Bwe mutyo munyweze emikono gyammwe egikooye n’amaviivi gammwe agajugumira,
13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
era ebigere byammwe mubikolere ekkubo eggolokofu, abo ababagoberera newaakubadde nga balema era banafu, baleme okuva mu kkubo eryo, wabula bawonyezebwe.
14 Follow peace with all [men], and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
Mufubenga okuba n’emirembe n’abantu bonna, era mufubenga okuba abatukuvu, kubanga atali mutukuvu taliraba Mukama.
15 Looking diligently, lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up, trouble [you], and by it many be defiled;
Buli muntu afe ku munne waleme kubeerawo n’omu ava mu kisa kya Katonda, era mwekuume ensigo ey’obukyayi ereme okuloka mu mmwe, bangi ne bagwagwawala.
16 Lest there [be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birth-right.
Era mwegendereze waleme okubaawo omwenzi mu mmwe wadde atatya Katonda nga Esawu eyatunda ebyobusika bwe olw’olulya olumu.
17 For ye know that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
Oluvannyuma ne bwe yagezaako okusikira omukisa ogwo, teyasiimibwa, era teyafuna mukisa kwenenya newaakubadde nga yagunoonya n’amaziga mangi.
18 For ye are not come to the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor to blackness, and to darkness, and tempest,
Temuzze ku lusozi olulabika olwaka omuliro, n’okukankana n’ekizikiza ekikutte, ne kibuyaga,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which [voice] they that heard, entreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
n’eri eddoboozi ly’akagombe n’eri eddoboozi ery’ebigambo n’abo abaaliwulira ne batayinza na kweyongera kuligumira.
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
Kubanga tebaayinza kugumira ekyo ekyalagirwa Katonda nti, “Ne bw’eba ensolo, bw’ekomanga ku lusozi ekubwanga amayinja n’efa.”
21 And so terrible was the sight, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and tremble: )
Ne Musa n’atya nnyo olw’ekyo kye yalaba n’ayogera nti, “Ntidde nnyo era nkankana.”
22 But ye are come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
Naye muzze ku lusozi Sayuuni, ne mu kibuga kya Katonda omulamu, mu Yerusaalemi eky’omu ggulu n’eri enkumi n’enkumi ez’abamalayika abakuŋŋaanye,
23 To the general assembly and church of the first-born, who are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
n’eri ekkanisa ey’abo abaasooka, amannya gaabwe agaawandiikibwa mu ggulu, n’eri Katonda Omulamuzi wa bonna, n’eri emyoyo egy’abantu abaatukirizibwa,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than [that of] Abel.
n’eri endagaano empya eya Yesu omutabaganya, ey’omusaayi ogwamansirwa ogwogera obulungi okusinga ogwa Aberi.
25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape], if we turn away from him that [speaketh] from heaven:
Kale mugonderenga oyo ayogera nammwe. Obanga Abayisirayiri tebaayinza kulokoka, bwe baagaana okuwulira oyo eyabalabula ng’ali ku nsi, tetuliyisibwa bubi nnyo n’okusingawo, bwe tulijeemera ekigambo ky’oyo ow’omu ggulu atulabula?
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
Yakankanya ensi n’eddoboozi lye kyokka n’asuubiza nti, “Omulundi omulala sirinyeenya nsi yokka, naye era n’eggulu.”
27 And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
Kino kitegeeza nti agenda kumalawo nate ebyo ebinyenyezebwa, kyokka ebitanyenyezebwa bisigalewo.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably, with reverence and godly fear.
Kale, nga bwe twaweebwa obwakabaka obutanyeenyezebwa, tusinze Katonda nga bw’asiima nga tumussaamu ekitiibwa era nga tumutya.
29 For our God [is] a consuming fire.
Kubanga ddala, “Katonda waffe, gwe muliro ogwokya.”
