< Hebrews 2 >

1 Nítorí náà, ó yẹ kí àwa máa fi iyè sí àwọn nǹkan wọ̀n-ọn-nì gidigidi tí àwa ti gbọ́, kí a má ba à gbá wa lọ kúrò nínú wọn nígbà kan.
Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that were heard, lest perhaps we drift away.
2 Nítorí bí ọ̀rọ̀ tí a tí ẹnu àwọn angẹli sọ bá sì dúró ṣinṣin, àti tí olúkúlùkù ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ sí òfin àti àìgbọ́ràn gba ìjìyà tí ó tọ́ sí i,
For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty,
3 kín ni ohun náà tí ó mú wa lérò pé a lè bọ́ kúrò nínú ìjìyà bí a kò bá náání ìgbàlà ńlá yìí? Ìgbàlà tí Olúwa fúnra rẹ̀ kọ́kọ́ kéde, èyí tí a sì fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ fún wa láti ọwọ́ àwọn tí ó gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ náà lẹ́nu rẹ̀.
how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation—which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard,
4 Ọlọ́run jẹ́rìí sí i nípa àwọn iṣẹ́ àmì àti ìyanu àti oríṣìíríṣìí iṣẹ́ agbára àti nípa ẹ̀bùn Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ tí a pín gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́ rẹ̀.
God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?
5 Nítorí pé, kì í ṣe abẹ́ ìṣàkóso àwọn angẹli ni ó fi ayé tí ń bọ̀, tí àwa ń sọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ sí.
For he didn’t subject the world to come, of which we speak, to angels.
6 Ṣùgbọ́n ibìkan wà tí ẹnìkan tí jẹ́rìí pé “Kí ni ènìyàn tí ìwọ fi ń ṣe ìrántí rẹ̀, tàbí ọmọ ènìyàn, tí ìwọ fi ń bẹ̀ ẹ́ wò?
But one has somewhere testified, saying, “What is man, that you think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?
7 Ìwọ dá a ní onírẹ̀lẹ̀ díẹ̀ ju àwọn angẹli lọ; ìwọ fi ògo àti ọlá de e ni adé, ìwọ sì fi í jẹ olórí iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ,
You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor.
8 Ìwọ fi ohun gbogbo sábẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀.” Ní ti fífi ohun gbogbo sábẹ́ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n àwa kò ì tí ì rí ohun kan tí ó kù tí kò sí ní abẹ́ àkóso rẹ̀. Síbẹ̀ nísinsin yìí àwa kò ì tí ì rí pé ó fi ohun gbogbo sábẹ́ ìṣàkóso rẹ̀.
You have put all things in subjection under his feet.” For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don’t yet see all things subjected to him.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n àwa rí Jesu ẹni tí a rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ díẹ̀ ju àwọn angẹli lọ fún àkókò díẹ̀, àní Jesu, ẹni tí a fi ògo àti ọlá dé ní adé nítorí ìjìyà wa; kí ó lè tọ́ ikú wò fún olúkúlùkù ènìyàn nípa oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run.
But we see him who has been made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for everyone.
10 Nítorí pé ó yẹ fún Ọlọ́run, nítorí nípasẹ̀ ẹni tí ohun gbogbo ṣẹ̀ wà, láti mú àwọn ọmọ púpọ̀ wá sínú ògo, láti ṣe balógun ìgbàlà wọn ni àṣepé nípa ìjìyà.
For it became him, for whom are all things and through whom are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
11 Nítorí àti ẹni tí ń sọ ni di mímọ́ àti àwọn tí a ń sọ di mímọ́, láti ọ̀dọ̀ ẹnìkan ṣoṣo ni gbogbo wọn ti wá, nítorí èyí ni kò ṣe tijú láti pè wọ́n ni arákùnrin.
For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brothers,
12 Àti wí pé, “Èmi ó sọ̀rọ̀ orúkọ rẹ̀ fún àwọn ará mi, ni àárín ìjọ ni èmi yóò kọrin ìyìn rẹ̀.”
saying, “I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the congregation I will sing your praise.”
13 Àti pẹ̀lú, “Èmi yóò gbẹ́kẹ̀ mi lé e.” Àti pẹ̀lú, “Kíyèsi í, èmi rèé, èmi àti àwọn ọmọ tí Ọlọ́run fi fún mi.”
Again, “I will put my trust in him.” Again, “Behold, here I am with the children whom God has given me.”
14 Ǹjẹ́ ni ìwọ̀n bí àwọn ọmọ tí ṣe alábápín ará àti ẹ̀jẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni òun pẹ̀lú sì ṣe alábápín nínú ohun kan náà; kí ó lè ti ipa ikú rẹ̀ pa ẹni tí ó ní agbára ikú run, èyí ni èṣù.
Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,
15 Kí o sì lè gba gbogbo àwọn tí ó tìtorí ìbẹ̀rù ikú wà lábẹ́ ìdè lọ́jọ́ ayé wọn gbogbo kúrò lọ́wọ́ ìbẹ̀rù.
and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16 Nítorí pé, nítòótọ́, kì í ṣe àwọn angẹli ni ó ṣe ìrànlọ́wọ́ fún, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn irú-ọmọ Abrahamu ni ó ṣe ìrànlọ́wọ́ fún.
For most certainly, he doesn’t give help to angels, but he gives help to the offspring of Abraham.
17 Nítorí náà, ó yẹ pé nínú ohun gbogbo kí ó dàbí àwọn ará rẹ̀, kí ó lè jẹ́ aláàánú àti olóòtítọ́ alábojútó Àlùfáà nínú ohun tí i ṣe ti Ọlọ́run, kí o lè ṣe ètùtù fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn ènìyàn.
Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.
18 Nítorí níwọ̀n bí òun tìkára rẹ̀ ti jìyà tí a sì ti dán an wò, òun ní agbára láti ran àwọn tí a ń dánwò lọ́wọ́.
For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.
