Abaebbulaniya 2
1 Kyekivudde kitusaanira okussaayo ennyo omwoyo ku bintu bye twawulira, si kulwa nga tuwaba ne tubivaako.
For this reason we should give heed more abundantly to the things [we have] heard, lest in any way we should slip away.
2 Obanga ekigambo ekyayogerwa bamalayika kyakola, na buli eyayonoona era n’ajeemera ekigambo ekyo, yaweebwa ekibonerezo ekimusaanira,
For if the word which was spoken by angels was firm, and every transgression and disobedience received just retribution,
3 ffe tuliwona tutya bwe tuliragajjalira obulokozi obukulu obwenkana awo? Obulokozi obwo bwasooka okwogerwa Mukama waffe, ne bulyoka bukakasibwa abo abaabuwulira.
how shall we escape if we have been negligent of so great salvation, which, having had its commencement in being spoken [of] by the Lord, has been confirmed to us by those who have heard;
4 Katonda yakikakasiza mu bubonero ne mu by’ekitalo ne mu byamagero abitali bimu, era ne mu birabo ebya Mwoyo Mutukuvu bye yagaba nga bwe yayagala.
God bearing, besides, witness with [them] to [it], both by signs and wonders, and various acts of power, and distributions of [the] Holy Spirit, according to his will?
5 Ensi empya gye twogerako si yakufugibwa bamalayika.
For he has not subjected to angels the habitable world which is to come, of which we speak;
6 Waliwo mu byawandiikibwa, omuntu we yagambira Katonda nti, “Omuntu kye ki ggwe okumujjukira? Oba Omwana w’Omuntu ye ani ggwe okumussaako omwoyo?
but one has testified somewhere, saying, What is man, that thou rememberest him, or son of man that thou visitest him?
7 Wamussa obuteenkana nga bamalayika, okumala akaseera katono, wamutikkira engule ey’ekitiibwa n’ettendo,
Thou hast made him some little inferior to the angels; thou hast crowned him with glory and honour, [and hast set him over the works of thy hands; ]
8 n’oteeka ebintu byonna wansi w’ebigere bye.” Katonda atadde buli kintu wansi we. Kyokka kaakano tetulaba bintu byonna nga biteekeddwa wansi we.
thou hast subjected all things under his feet. For in subjecting all things to him, he has left nothing unsubject to him. But now we see not yet all things subjected to him,
9 Naye tulaba Yesu eyassibwa wansi wa bamalayika okumala akaseera akatono. Olw’ekisa kya Katonda, yabonaabona n’afa, alyoke alege ku kufa ku lwa buli muntu, n’atikkirwa engule ey’ekitiibwa n’ettendo.
but we see Jesus, who [was] made some little inferior to angels on account of the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; so that by the grace of God he should taste death for every thing.
10 Katonda oyo eyatonderwa ebintu byonna, era mu oyo Yesu Kristo ebintu byonna mwe byatonderwa, eyalondebwa okuleeta abaana abangi mu kitiibwa. Era kyasaanira Yesu okubonyaabonyezebwa, ng’omukulembeze omutuukirivu, okubaleetera obulokozi.
For it became him, for whom [are] all things, and by whom [are] all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make perfect the leader of their salvation through sufferings.
11 Oyo atukuza era n’abo abatukuzibwa bava mu omu bonna. Noolwekyo takwatibwa nsonyi kubayita baganda be.
For both he that sanctifies and those sanctified [are] all of one; for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
12 Agamba nti, “Nditegeeza baganda bange erinnya lyo, era nnaakuyimbiranga ennyimba wakati mu kkuŋŋaaniro.”
saying, I will declare thy name to my brethren; in [the] midst of [the] assembly will I sing thy praises.
13 Era awalala agamba nti, “Nze nnaamwesiganga oyo.” Ate ne yeeyongera n’agamba nti, “Laba nze n’abaana Katonda be yampa.”
And again, I will trust in him. And again, Behold, I and the children which God has given me.
14 Olw’okubanga abaana balina omubiri n’omusaayi, naye yalina omubiri n’omusaayi, alyoke azikirize oyo alina amaanyi ag’okufa, ye Setaani.
Since therefore the children partake of blood and flesh, he also, in like manner, took part in the same, that through death he might annul him who has the might of death, that is, the devil;
15 Yakikola alyoke awe eddembe abo bonna abaali bamaze obulamu bwabwe bwonna mu buddu olw’entiisa y’okufa.
and might set free all those who through fear of death through the whole of their life were subject to bondage.
16 Kubanga eky’amazima kiri nti tayamba bamalayika, ayamba zzadde lya Ibulayimu.
For he does not indeed take hold of angels [by the hand], but he takes hold of the seed of Abraham.
17 Kyekyava kimugwanira mu byonna okufaananyizibwa baganda be, alyoke abeerenga Kabona Asinga Obukulu asaasira era omwesigwa mu kuweereza Katonda. Ekyo yakikola alyoke atangirire ebibi by’abantu.
Wherefore it behoved him in all things to be made like to [his] brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things relating to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people;
18 Yabonaabona, ye yennyini ng’akemebwa, alyoke ayambe abo abakemebwa.
for, in that himself has suffered, being tempted, he is able to help those that are being tempted.
