Hebrews 13
1 Let brotherly love continue.
Kalume njalo uthando lobuzalwane.
2 Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, some have entertained angels without knowing it.
Lingakhohlwa ukungenisa izihambi; ngoba ngalokho abanye bangenisa izingilosi bengazi.
3 Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them, and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in the body.
Khumbulani izibotshwa, ngokungathi libotshwe kanye lazo; abaphethwe kubi, ngokungathi lani liphethwe kubi emzimbeni.
4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.
Umtshado uhlonitshwa kubo bonke, lombheda ungangcoliswa; kodwa uNkulunkulu uzagweba iziphingi lezifebe.
5 Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.”
Indlela yempilo kayingabi ngeyokuthanda imali, yeneliswani yizinto elilazo; ngoba yena utshilo ukuthi: Kangisoze ngakulahla, njalo kangisoze ngakutshiya.
6 So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?”
Ngakho singatsho ngesibindi sithi: INkosi ingumsizi wami, njalo kangiyikwesaba umuntu azakwenza kimi.
7 Remember your leaders, men who spoke to you the word of God, and considering the results of their conduct, imitate their faith.
Khumbulani abakhokheli benu, abakhulume kini ilizwi likaNkulunkulu; liqaphelise ukuphela kokuhamba kwabo, lilingisele ukholo lwabo.
UJesu Kristu unguye izolo lalamuhla lephakadeni. (aiōn g165)
9 Don’t be carried away by various and strange teachings, for it is good that the heart be established by grace, not by foods, through which those who were so occupied were not benefited.
Lingaduhiswa yizimfundiso eziyinhlobonhlobo lezingaziwayo; ngoba kuhle ukuthi inhliziyo iqiniswe ngomusa, kungabi ngokudla, abangasizwanga yikho ababebambelela kukho.
10 We have an altar from which those who serve the holy tabernacle have no right to eat.
Silalo ilathi, abangelalungelo lokudla kulo abakhonza ithabhanekele.
11 For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside of the camp.
Ngoba lezozinyamazana, ogazi lazo langeniswa ngumpristi omkhulu endaweni ezingcwele ngenxa yesono, izidumbu zazo zitshiswa ngaphandle kwenkamba.
12 Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered outside of the gate.
Ngakho laye uJesu, ukuze angcwelise abantu ngelakhe igazi, wahlupheka ngaphandle kwesango.
13 Let’s therefore go out to him outside of the camp, bearing his reproach.
Ngakho-ke asiphumele kuye ngaphandle kwenkamba, sithwele ihlazo lakhe.
14 For we don’t have here an enduring city, but we seek that which is to come.
Ngoba kasilawo umuzi omiyo lapha, kodwa sidinga ozayo.
15 Through him, then, let’s offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name.
Ngakho asinikele njalonjalo kuNkulunkulu ngaye umnikelo wendumiso, okutsho isithelo sendebe sivuma ibizo lakhe.
16 But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
Kodwa lingakhohlwa ukwenza okuhle lokuphana; ngoba uNkulunkulu uyathokoza ngeminikelo enjalo.
17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch on behalf of your souls, as those who will give account, that they may do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be unprofitable for you.
Lalelani abakhokheli benu, lizehlisele ngaphansi kwabo; ngoba laba balinda imiphefumulo yenu, njengabazalandisa; ukuze bakwenze lokhu ngenjabulo, njalo bengabubuli; ngoba kungalisizi lokhu.
18 Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.
Sikhulekeleni; ngoba siyathemba ukuthi silesazela esihle, sifisa ukuhamba kuhle ezintweni zonke;
19 I strongly urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you sooner.
njalo ngiyalincenga ngokwengezelelwe kakhulu ukuthi likwenze lokhu, ukuze ngibuyiselwe kini ngokuphangisa.
20 Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus, (aiōnios g166)
Kungathi uNkulunkulu wokuthula owamkhuphula kwabafileyo uMelusi omkhulu wezimvu ngegazi lesivumelwano saphakade, iNkosi yethu uJesu, (aiōnios g166)
21 make you complete in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
angaliphelelisa kuwo wonke umsebenzi omuhle ukuze lenze intando yakhe, esebenza kini lokho okumthokozisayo phambi kwakhe, ngoJesu Kristu, kakube kuye ubukhosi kuze kube nini lanini. Ameni. (aiōn g165)
22 But I exhort you, brothers, endure the word of exhortation, for I have written to you in few words.
Kodwa ngiyalincenga, bazalwane, lemukeleni ngesineke ilizwi lenkuthazo; ngoba ngilibhalele ngamafitshane.
23 Know that our brother Timothy has been freed, with whom, if he comes shortly, I will see you.
Yazini ukuthi umzalwane uTimothi ukhululwe, uba efika masinyane, ngizalibona ngilaye.
24 Greet all of your leaders and all the saints. The Italians greet you.
Bingelelani bonke abakhokheli benu, labo bonke abangcwele. Abavela eIthaliya bayalibingelela.
25 Grace be with you all. Amen.
Umusakawube lani lonke. Ameni.
