Hebrews 13
1 Let brotherly love continue.
Qhubekani lithandana njengabazalwane.
2 Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, some have entertained angels without knowing it.
Lingakhohlwa ukwamukela izihambi ngoba ngokwenza njalo abanye abantu bamukela 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 abasentolongweni ngokungathi lani liyizibotshwa kanye labo, kanye lalabo abaphethwe kubi ngokungathi lani uqobo liyahlupheka.
4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.
Ukuthathana kumele kuhlonitshwe ngumuntu wonke, kuthi lomendlalo wokuthathana uhlale uhlambulukile ngoba uNkulunkulu uzakwahlulela isifebe labo bonke abahlobongayo.
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.”
Ekuphileni kwenu xwayani ukuthanda imali lisuthiseke ngalokho elilakho, ngoba uNkulunkulu wathi: “Kangisoze ngilitshiye; kangisoze ngilidele.”
6 So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?”
Ngakho siyatsho ngethemba sithi: “INkosi ingumsizi wami; kangiyikwesaba. Umuntu angenzani kimi na?”
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, abakhuluma ilizwi likaNkulunkulu kini. Cabangani okwavela endleleni yokuphila kwabo lilingisele ukukholwa kwabo.
UJesu Khristu uyafana izolo lanamhla kanye laphakade. (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.
Lingathatheki ngazozonke inhlobo zemfundiso engaziwayo. Kuhle ukuba inhliziyo zethu ziqiniswe ngumusa, hatshi yikudla komkhuba okungelasizo kulabo abakudlayo.
10 We have an altar from which those who serve the holy tabernacle have no right to eat.
Thina sile-alithare lapho labo abakhonza ethabanikeleni bengelalungelo lokudlela kulo.
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.
Umphristi omkhulu uletha igazi lezifuyo eNdaweni eNgcwelengcwele njengomnikelo wesono kodwa izidumbu zazo ziyatshiswa ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
12 Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered outside of the gate.
Ngokunjalo uJesu laye wahlupheka ngaphandle kwesango ledolobho ukuba enze abantu bakhe babengcwele ngegazi lakhe.
13 Let’s therefore go out to him outside of the camp, bearing his reproach.
Ngakho-ke, kasiyeni kuye ngaphandle kwezihonqo silehlazo alithwalayo.
14 For we don’t have here an enduring city, but we seek that which is to come.
Ngoba lapha kasiladolobho elimiyo njalo, kodwa sidinga idolobho elizayo.
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, ngoJesu kasinikeleni njalonjalo kuNkulunkulu umhlatshelo wokubonga, isithelo sezindebe ezivuma ibizo lakhe.
16 But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
Njalo lingakhohlwa ukwenza okulungileyo kanye lokwabela abanye ngoba uNkulunkulu uyathokoza ngemihlatshelo enje.
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 njalo lithobele amandla abo. Bayalilinda njengabantu okumele balandise ngani. Balaleleni ukuze umsebenzi wabo uthokozise njalo ungasindi ngoba lokho akungeke kube lusizo kini.
18 Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.
Sikhulekeleni. Sileqiniso ukuthi silesazela esihle njalo sifisa ukuhlala ngobuqotho ngezindlela zonke.
19 I strongly urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you sooner.
Ikakhulu ngiyalincenga ukuba likhuleke ukuze ngibuyiselwe kini masinyane.
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)
Sengathi uNkulunkulu wokuthula, owavusa iNkosi yethu uJesu kwabafileyo ngegazi lesivumelwano esingapheliyo, lowoMalusi omkhulu wezimvu, (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)
angalihlomisa ngakho konke okulungele ukwenza intando yakhe, njalo sengathi angasebenza phakathi kwethu lokho okumthokozisayo ngoJesu Khristu, udumo kalube kuye 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.
Bazalwane, ngiyalincenga ukuba libekezelele ilizwi lami lokuqonqosela kwami ngoba ngililobele incwadi emfitshane nje.
23 Know that our brother Timothy has been freed, with whom, if he comes shortly, I will see you.
Ngithanda ukuba likwazi ukuthi umzalwane wethu uThimothi usekhululwe. Angafika masinyane ngizakuza laye sizelibona.
24 Greet all of your leaders and all the saints. The Italians greet you.
Bingelelani bonke abakhokheli benu kanye labantu bakaNkulunkulu bonke. Abavela e-Ithali bayalibingelela.
25 Grace be with you all. Amen.
Umusa kawube lani lonke.
