Hebru 4

1 Te dongah amah kah duemnah khuiah kun ham olkhueh a paih te nangmih khuiah khat khat loh a hlavawt la a poek khaming tila birhih uh sih.

We may fear, then, lest a promise being left of entering into His rest, anyone of you may seem to have come short,

2 Amih bangla olthangthen aka phong lam ni n'om uh ngawn. Tedae a yaak rhoek te tangnah neh a rhoih uh pawt dongah a hnavue kah olka tah phu voel pawh.

for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,

3 A ti bangla aka tangnah rhoek tah duemnah khuila n'kun uh. Ka kosi neh ka toemngam vanbangla kai duemnah khuiah kun venim. Te cakhaw Diklai a tongnah lamloh a bibi te ana om coeng.

for we enter into the rest—we who believed, as He said, “So I swore in My anger, They will [not] enter into My rest”; and yet the works were done from the foundation of the world,

4 Te dongah pakhat ah hninrhih ham a thui tangloeng. Te vaengah Pathen tah a bibi boeih lamkah hnin rhih vaengah duem.

for He spoke in a certain place concerning the seventh [day] thus: “And God rested in the seventh day from all His works”;

5 Te phoeiah amah hmuen la, “Ka duemnah khuiah kun uh mahpawh,” koep a ti.

and in this [place] again, “They will [not] enter into My rest”;

6 Te dongah a khuila kun ham hlangvang a khueh tangloeng pueng. Tedae hnukbuet kah aka phong rhoek tah althanah dongah kun uh pawh.

since then, it remains for some to enter into it, and those who first heard good news did not enter in because of unbelief—

7 Te phoeiah khohnin pakhat te “Tihnin “la a hoep tih kum heyet phoeiah ni David loh a thui. A thui bangla tihnin ah a ol te na yaak uh atah nangmih kah thinko te ning sak uh boeh.

again He limits a certain day, “Today,” in David saying, after so long a time, as it has been said, “Today, if you may hear His voice, you may not harden your hearts,”

8 Joshua loh amih te a duem sak atah hekah khohnin phoeiah a tloe ham tah thui mahpawh.

for if Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken after these things concerning another day;

9 Te dongah duemhnin tah Pathen kah pilnam ham ni a om.

there remains, then, a Sabbath rest to the people of God,

10 Te dongah amah kah duemnah khuiah aka kun tah Pathen loh amah bibi lamkah a duem vanbangla anih khaw amah bibi lamkah duem.

for he who entered into His rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.

11 Te dongah tekah duemnah khuiah kun hamla haam uh sih. Te daengah ni althanah moeiboe dongah pakhat khaw amah la a bung pawt eh.

May we be diligent, then, to enter into that rest, that no one may fall in the same example of the unbelief,

12 Te dongah Pathen kah olka tah hing tih khuekcet. cunghang boeih lakah voeivang la haat tih hinglu neh mueihla, rhuhcong neh hliing, duela a thun tih a sah. Thinko poeknah neh hmuhnah khaw khocueh rhamvueh la a khueh.

for the Word of God is living, and working, and sharper—beyond every two-edged sword—and piercing as far as [the] division of soul and spirit, of joints and also marrows, and a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart;

13 Amah hmaikah a thuhphah suentae a om moenih. Tedae a cungkuem he a tlingyal neh a mikhmuh ah rha uh coeng. Anih taengah mamih ol te a paek.

and there is not a created thing hidden before Him, but all things [are] naked and open to His eyes—with whom is our reckoning.

14 Khosoihham koek, vaan aka hil la Pathen Capa Jesuh n'khueh uh te olphoei la pom uh sih.

Having, then, a great Chief Priest having passed through the heavens—Jesus the Son of God—may we hold fast the profession,

15 Mamih kah vawtthoeknah aka rhen thai mueh khosoihham n'khueh uh moenih. A cungkuem dongah mamih mueiloh la a noemcai coeng dae tholhnah a khueh moenih.

for we do not have a Chief Priest unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but [One] tempted in all things in like manner, [yet] without sin;

16 Te dongah lungvatnah ngolkhoel taengah sayalh la paan uh sih. Te daengah ni rhennah n'dang vetih bomnah he tapkhoeh la lungvatnah neh m'hmuh eh.

we may come near, then, with freedom, to the throne of grace, that we may receive kindness, and find grace—for seasonable help.
