Hebrews 12
1 Sumbu tuzungulu kuidi bambangi bawombo, bika tulozanu bizitu bioso ayi masumu makutuzungidilanga mu zindambu zioso. Vayi bika tuzawula thinu mu kambu vonga mu tsisani yidi yeto ku ntuala.
Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, 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,
2 Bika thalu eto yiba kaka kuidi Yesu bila niandi wutona ayi wudukisa minu kieto. Niandi, mu diambu di khini yoyi yiba ku ntualꞌandi, wuvibidila va dikulusi; kasia mona tsoni ko ayi buabu vuendi va koko ku lubakala lu kundu ki Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of [our] faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 Bika luyindulanu mutu wowo wuvibidila batu ba masumu, muingi lubika vonga ayi lebakana mu miela mieno.
For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against themselves, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.
4 Bu lueti nuanisa masumu, lutudidi ko mu tezo ki totula menga.
Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:
5 Buna luzimbakana kueno mambu mama makulukindisanga, momo Nzambi kalukamba banga ti niandi wunyoluka kuidi bana bandi e? A Muanꞌama, kadi lenzanga thumbudulu yi Pfumu; kadi vonga mu thangu kalembo ku temina,
and ye have forgotten the exhortation, which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;
6 bila Pfumu wuntumbudilanga mutu wowo keta zola, ayi wunzubanga lusuadi kuidi bobo kazebi ti badi bana bandi.
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 Luvibidila ziphasi zieno. Nzambi ziawu zidi mu diambu di kululudika. Nzambi wukulumonanga banga bana. Muana mbi wowo kakabakanga thumbudulu ko kuidi Dise?
It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom [his] father chasteneth not?
8 Enati lukadi baka thumbudulu yoyi yintambulanga bana boso, buna diodi dimmonisa ti luidi bana ba kindumba; luisi khatika bana ko.
But if ye are without chastening, whereof all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 Beto tuba ayi madise meto ma kinsuni makutuvananga thumbudulu vayi tukubakinzikanga. Mbi bi kutukandika mu luta tumukina dise di diyilu muingi tuzinga e?
Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 Madise meto ma kinsuni makutuvananga thumbudulu mu ndambu thangu, boso bubela mayindu mawu vayi Nzambi wukutuvananga thumbudulu mu diambu di mamboti meto, muingi mamveto tuba kithuadi mu bunlongo buandi.
For they verily for a few days chastened [us] as seemed good to them; but he for [our] profit, that [we] may be partakers of his holiness.
11 Bukiedika ti mu thangu yayi, thumbudulu yidi diambu di kiadi, bika di khini. Vayi kunzimunina yimbutanga luzingu lusonga lunzingulungu mu ndembama kuidi bawu batambula thumbudulu beni.
All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous, but grievous: yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, [even the fruit] of righteousness.
12 Diawu vumunanu mioko mieno mivonga ayi makuma meno ma lebakana,
Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the palsied knees;
13 bika luludika minsolo mu diambu di malu meno; mu diambu di kulu ku bela kubika luta fumbuka vayi ku beluka.
and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame be not turned out of the way, but rather be healed.
14 Tunuananu mu ba mu ndembama ayi batu boso ayi zinga luzingu lunlongo bila kambu luzingu lunlongo, mutu kalendi mona Pfumu ko.
Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:
15 Lulubuka tala mutu kabika kambu nlemvo wu Nzambi, mu diambu di muanzi wu ndudi wedi mena va luidi; muingi wubika totula divunzi ayi wubika bivisa bawombo mu beno.
looking carefully lest [there be] any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby the many be defiled;
16 Lulubuka muingi muna luidi, mutu kabika sala kindumba voti sekinina mambu ma nlongo banga bubela Esawu; mutu wusumbisa kikulutu kiandi mu diambu di bidia.
lest [there be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright.
17 Bila, luzebi kueno ti kunzimunina bu kedi ka buela tomba baka kiuka ki lusakumunu, kasia kikununu ko bila diluaku disia buela ba ko muingi kaviakisa mambu mavanga dise diandi; ka diambu ko boso kaba ntomba lusakumunu buna wulembo didi.
For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected (for he found no place of repentance), though he sought it diligently with tears.
18 Lusia fikama ko banga bana ba Iseli, ku mongo wulenda simbu; wowo wuba lema mbazu, ku tombi ki nkobo ayi ku vuka;
For ye are not come unto [a mount] that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 voti ku tulumbeta ko voti ku mbembo yimosi yi tsisi yiba wakikisa mambu ma tsisi. Diawu batu bobo bawa yawu balomba mu diambu babika buela wa diaka mbembo beni.
and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which [voice] they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them:
20 Bila bamona ti balendi nunga ko mu kinzikanga lutumunu lolo lutotukila muawu ti: ka diambu ko bulu kinsimba mongo, kifueti vondolo mu matadi.
for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;
21 Mambu beni bu mabela ngolo tsisi, diawu niandi veka Moyize kayamikina ti: Tsisi ndimmona ayi ndieka tita.
and so fearful was the appearance, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:
22 Vayi beno lutumbu fikama ku mongo wu Sioni, ku divula di Nzambi yi moyo, ku Yelusalemi di Diyilu ayi kuidi minkangu na minkangu mi zimbasi midi mu nkembo;
but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,
23 ayi kuidi Dibundu di bana batheti ba Nzambi bobo mazina mawu madi masonama mu Diyilu. Beno lufikama kuidi Nzambi, zuzi di batu boso; ayi kuidi ziphevi zi batu banlongo bamana fuana.
to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 Beno lutumbu fikama kuidi Yesu, phovi yi Nguizani yimona ayi kuidi menga mandi matenguka; momo meti yoluka bumboti viokila buyolukila menga ma Abeli.
and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than [that of] Abel.
25 Lukeba tala luedi kambu wila mutu wowo wulembo yoluka. Bila enati bobo bamanga wila mutu wowo wuba lubula vava ntoto, basia vuka ko mu thumbudulu; buna buevi buela bela kuidi beto enati tutembi manima kuidi mutu wowo wulembo yoluka tona ku Diyilu e?
See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not, when they refused him that warned [them] on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape], who turn away from him that [warneth] from heaven:
26 Mbemboꞌandi yinikuna ntoto vayi buabu wuveni tsila yayi: Ndiela buela nikuna diaka, vayi bika sia ti wo ntoto kaka vayi ayi diyilu.
whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
27 Diambu diadi: diaka dinsundula ti bima bioso bilenda nikunu biobi bivangama, biela viakusu mu diambu biobi bi kabinikukanga ko bizingila.
And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
28 Diawu, sumbu tuela tambula kipfumu kioki kakilendi nikuka ko, bika tuzaba vutudilanga Nzambi matondo ayi tunsadila mu phila yikumonisa khini mu tumamana ayi mu lukinzu.
Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
29 Bila Nzambi eto widi mbazu yeti zinisanga.
for our God is a consuming fire.
