Bhaebrania 12
1 Ishi piotizyu ugulilwe ni bhango igosi ilya keti titaje kila sheshitutamya peka ni mbibhi zyezihutuzyungura nanali tushimbile husaburi humashinda gegabhi shilwe mwilongolela yitu.
Therefore, surrounded as we are by such a vast cloud of witnesses, let us fling aside every encumbrance and the sin that so readily entangles our feet. And let us run with patient endurance the race that lies before us,
2 Timenye uYesu yahandisizye na amalizye ulwitiho lwitu, huwinza wewubhi hwilwe mwilongolela lyakwe, ahajimbilye munshikhobhekhanyo ahazisufizye insoni zyakwe ahakhiye hunkono ugwalile, pitengo ilyapamwanya ilya Ngulubhi.
simply fixing our gaze upon Jesus, our Prince Leader in the faith, who will also award us the prize. He, for the sake of the joy which lay before Him, patiently endured the cross, looking with contempt upon its shame, and afterwards seated Himself-- where He still sits--at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 Musiibhanje umwene yahajimbiliye inongwa izyavisye afume hubhabhomba imbabhi ashile umwene yayo aje msahalite nafwe amoyo ginyu.
Therefore, if you would escape becoming weary and faint-hearted, compare your own sufferings with those of Him who endured such hostility directed against Him by sinners.
4 Semlabhile na yimbe le mushindana ni mbibhi kiasi shahwitishe idanda.
In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted so as to endanger your lives;
5 Habhili msahiwe hubhapele umwoyo huhubhwatwala huje mlibhana bhishilume: “Mwana wani usahegwe hupupusu amagalushila ga Gosi, habhili usaholowe lwe Ungulubhi ahulinganya.
and you have quite forgotten the encouraging words which are addressed to you as sons, and which say, "My son, do not think lightly of the Lord's discipline, and do not faint when He corrects you;
6 Pipo Ugosi ahumwela wonti yaganile ahunsovya umwana wakwe yahumposhela.
for those whom the Lord loves He disciplines: and He scourges every son whom He acknowledges."
7 Jimba injelo ndeshe awelelwe Ungulubhi babhomba namwendeshe shabhomba na bhana bhabhakwe, ishi mwana bhuli ye uyise wakwe saga ahuwela?
The sufferings that you are enduring are for your discipline. God is dealing with you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?
8 Nkushe nahumo uhwawelwe hwe ati twenti tiwelwa basi amwe saga mulibhanabhakwe.
And if you are left without discipline, of which every true son has had a share, that shows that you are bastards, and not true sons.
9 Zaidi yipo tali na yise bhitu abha munsi abhahutiwele twabhapiye inshinshi. Je sihwanziwa ati humwitishe uGosi wishimwoyo na akhale?
Besides this, our earthly fathers used to discipline us and we treated them with respect, and shall we not be still more submissive to the Father of our spirits, and live?
10 Huhakika ayise bhitu bhatishetile humaha madodo shilolosya hwabhene sheshisho, lakini Ungulubhi ahutisheta hufaida yakwe tibhe nke tibhe bhagolosu.
It is true that they disciplined us for a few years according as they thought fit; but He does it for our certain good, in order that we may become sharers in His own holy character.
11 Nahumo ashetwe hwehuleta ashe. Huwakati uwo abhe. Hubhabha. Hata shinisho agigolosu hubhala bhebhamaayizizwe nago.
Now, at the time, discipline seems to be a matter not for joy, but for grief; yet it afterwards yields to those who have passed through its training a result full of peace--namely, righteousness.
12 Isi mubhusye amakhono ginyu gega yetile, na mafugamo ginyu gesagali ni nguvu gabhe ni nguvu habhili;
Therefore strengthen the drooping hands and paralysed knees,
13 mugolosye injendo zyinyayo zyinyu, ili huje wowonti yali nu nishilema salongozwe huteganu abhe mwumi.
and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put entirely out of joint
14 Muwanze utenganu na bhantu bhonti nuwo ugolosu bila yuwo ugolosu mumo yayinda Ungulubhi.
but may rather be restored. Persistently strive for peace with all men, and for that growth in holiness apart from which no one will see the Lord.
15 Mwenyelezyaje asahabhe umuntu wowonti yahwepa mushibanza isha Ngulubhi, huje lisahinze ishina ilyibhu bhuchungu lyelibhamele na sababisye ishida hu bhantu abhinji huneshe Ungulubhi.
Be carefully on your guard lest there be any one who falls back from the grace of God; lest any root bearing bitter fruit spring up and cause trouble among you, and through it the whole brotherhood be defiled;
16 Mwenye huje nazimo izinaa au umuntu yesegolosu ndeshe u Esau, ye pipo yishalye sheka ahakazizye ihaki yakwe iyapapwe.
lest there be a fornicator, or an ungodly person like Esau, who, in return for a single meal, parted with the birthright which belonged to him.
17 Pipo muminye aje shamandi ahanyonywa aoyane insayo ahakhanwa, pipo saga ahapite ifasi iya khomoshe peka nuyise wakwe pope haat nkahanzale hani humansozi.
For you know that even afterwards, when he wished to secure the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no opportunity for undoing what he had done, though he sought the blessing earnestly with tears.
18 Pipo semwahaminye igamba lyelinga khatwa, Igamba lyelihwaha umwoto, alete azilamwe ahavurungwi.
For you have not come to a material object all ablaze with fire, and to gloom and darkness and storm and trumpet-blast and the sound of words--
19 Semwahamnye indudwe mizwi lisababisya bhebhahwinvwa bhasahalabhe izwi lyolyonti ayangwe hwa bhene.
a sound of such a kind that those who heard it entreated that no more should be added.
20 Pipo sebhabhweziye agulilile zila zyezyamulilwe: “Huje hata mnyama asahakhate igamba lazima akhomwe na mawe.”
For they could not endure the order which had been given, "Even a wild beast, if it touches the mountain, shall be stoned to death;"
21 Aga hwogofye hani gagalolile uMusa ahajile, “Inogope hani mpaka na yinje”.
and so terrible was the scene that Moses said, "I tremble with fear."
22 Badala yakwe mwinzile mwigamba i Sayuni na mukhaya ya Ngulubhi yalimwumi, i Yerusalemu iya humwanya na hwa bhantumi elfu kumi bhebhaseshelela.
On the contrary you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the ever-living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to countless hosts of angels,
23 Mwinzile mwibhunganyo ilya bhapapwe abhahwande bhonti bhebhandi hwilwe humwanya hwa Ngulubhi uhakimu wa bhonti, nu umpepo umfinjile bhasimishiziwilwe.
to the great festal gathering and Church of the first-born, whose names are recorded in Heaven, and to a Judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of righteous men made perfect,
24 Mwinzile hwa Yesu unkhomanyiwi ndajizyo ipya na hwidanda yiyitilizizwe yeyiyanga aminza hani kuliko idanda lya Habili.
and to Jesus the negotiator of a new Covenant, and to the sprinkled blood which speaks in more gracious tones than that of Abel.
25 Unyenyaje usahankhane weka ya yanga. Nkushe sagabha hepushe lwebhahankhana weka ya bhasuntile pansi ipa lyoli setwaiyepuha nketigulana apatali afume hwula yahutusoha afume humwanya.
Be careful not to refuse to listen to Him who is speaking to you. For if they of old did not escape unpunished when they refused to listen to him who spoke on earth, much less shall we escape who turn a deaf ear to Him who now speaks from Heaven.
26 Hu wakati uwo izwi lyake lyayinzizye insi. Lakini umwene atipiye habhili simbayizye nnsi nyeene hata imwanya yope.”
His voice then shook the earth, but now we have His promise, "Yet again I will, once for all, cause not only the earth to tremble, but Heaven also."
27 Amazwi inga, “Mara moja habhili,” ilolesya ahwefwe hu vintu vyevinzwa visyale, hivi ni, vitu vile ambavyo vimeumbwa, ili kwamba vile vitu visivyotetemeshwa vibakie.
Here the words "Yet again, once for all" denote the removal of the things which can be shaken--created things--in order that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Ishi tiposhele ubhumwini bhwe saga bhuyizwa tishanje hwi lihumpute Ungulubhi hwa humitishe peka na hwoshe hwisho,
Therefore, receiving, as we now do, a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us cherish thankfulness so that we may ever offer to God an acceptable service, with godly reverence and awe.
29 maana Ungulubhi witu moto webhulya.
For our God is also a consuming fire.
