< Hebrews 12 >

1 We [know about] many people like that [who showed they trusted in God]. They are like a crowd of spectators [who are cheering for us inside a stadium] [MET]. Knowing that, we must put away all the things that hinder us, [as a runner puts aside everything that would hinder him because they are heavy] [MET]. Especially we must put away sinful actions that [hinder us, as a runner] sets aside clothes he does not need, clothes that would entangle him [MET]. Let us [wholeheartedly strive to achieve what God has planned for us, as someone] in a race wholeheartedly runs the course that is before him [MET].
Hijehchun, tahsan hinkhoa jong hettohsah mihonpi nasatah in eiumkimvelu ahin, ichunguva kaijing ipohgih u eihatmosah u, adehset'a einohphahsah uva chonset hi pailhau hite. Chule thohhattah in Pathen in imasanguva akoi kilhaitetna a hin lhaiyuhite.
2 And let us [keep our minds on] Jesus, [as a runner] keeps his eyes on [the goal] [MET]. Jesus is the one we should imitate in the way he perfectly trusted [God. When he died on] the cross he endured it as he suffered greatly [MTY], instead of [thinking about the things he would] rejoice about [later]. He disregarded being disgraced by [dying that way]. He is now sitting at the place of highest honor [MTY] at the throne [where God rules].
Eihon hiche hi, itahsanu akipatna le achamkim sahpa, Yeshua, lam jeng vea ibol'u ahi. Aman kipana amuding jeh chun, thingpel gimna chu anathoh in, jumna le mai mohna ijaseplouvin aumin ahi. Tun, Ama Pathen laltouna muna jabolna a atoutan ahi.
3 [Jesus] patiently endured it when sinful people acted so hostilely against him. Try to act the way he did, so that you do not give up [trusting] God or become discouraged.
Michonse hoa kona adoudalnau natoh jouse thoh lhumkei pachu geldoh un, chutile nangma thachola naum louding chule moh ngahnomna naneilou ding ahi.
4 While you have struggled against [being tempted to] sin, you have not yet bled [and died because of resisting evil, as Jesus did].
Among'in, nangho chonset douna a napan nauvah hinkho katdoh chan geiyin nathoh gimpouve.
5 Do not forget [RHQ] these words [that Solomon spoke to his son, that are the same as God] would exhort you as his children: My child, pay attention [LIT] when the Lord is disciplining you, and do not be discouraged when the Lord punishes you [DOU],
Achate hina jal'a Pathen in nahenguva tilkhounaa athusei chu nasuhmilu hitam? Aman hitin ati, “Ka chapa Pakai thununna chu imalouvin gelhihbeh in, Aman nasuhdih tengleh lunglhahnan neihih in.
6 because it is everyone whom he loves whom the Lord disciplines, and he punishes everyone whom he accepts as his child.
Ijeh ham itileh Pakaiyin angailut chu athunun ahi, chule Acha hina a alah chan chu agimbolji ahi.”
7 It is in order that God may discipline you that he requires you to endure the disagreeable things [that happen to you]. [When God disciplines you] he is treating you as a father treats his children. All fathers [RHQ] discipline their children [LIT].
Nanghon hiche Pathena kona thununna chu nasan uva ahileh Pathen in achate tahbeh hina a nabolu ahi. Koiham apan athununlou chapa najah khah um?
8 So, if you have not experienced God disciplining you just like he disciplines all his other children, you are [not true children of God] [MET]. [You are like] illegitimate children; [no father disciplines them].
Pathen in achate jouse abolna banga nathunun louva ahileh nangho jaocha nahiu chule chatahbeh hilou nahiuve.
9 Furthermore, our natural fathers disciplined us [when we were young], and we respected them for doing that. So we should certainly more readily accept God our spiritual Father disciplining us, with the result that we live eternally [RHQ]!
Eihon leiset a ipateu eithunun hou chu ijaboluva ahileh, chusanga chu ilhagaohou le tonsot'a umjing iPau thua chu nungcheh lou ding ihiuvem?
10 Our natural fathers disciplined us for a short time in a way that they considered right, [but it wasn’t always right], but God always disciplines us [in a right way], to help us. He does it so that we may be holy as he is.
Ijeh ham itileh leiset a ipateuvin eithununnau hi kum phabep sunga dinga abolthei chan gei uva dinga aboljiu ahi. Hinla Pathen in eithunun nauhi eihon Ama thennaa chu chanpha ineikhom theina dingu ahiye.
11 During the time that God is disciplining us, that does not seem to be something about which we should rejoice. Instead, it is something that pains us. But later it causes those who have learned from it to be peaceful and to [live] righteously.
Thununna hi apet a anom khatcha aumpoi–thoh hahsa ahi! Hinla hitia kichuhna neisaho dinga chu cham-lungmonna hinkhoa hinna aneithei dingu ahi.
12 So, [instead of acting as though you were spiritually exhausted], renew yourselves [MET] spiritually.
Hiti ahijeh chun thacholsa nakhut'u chun tuhchah phakit henlang chule khup ngoisa ho chu thahatsah kit'un.
13 Go straight forward [in your Christian life] [MET], in order that believers who are uncertain about their faith [will imitate you] and not ([leave God’s way/] useless [to God]) [MET]. Instead, they will be spiritually restored [MET] as an injured and useless limb is restored.
Nakengphang teniuva ding uvin lampi jangkeiyin jot'un chutileh thalhom le elbaihon kiseplhu louva, thanei tah a lam ajotdiu ahitai.
14 Try to live peacefully with all people. Seek to be holy, since no one will see the Lord if he is not holy.
Amitakip to kitohdel a hinding gelkhoh un, chule hinkho thenga hing dingin kiseh un, thenna hinkho manglou hon Pakai chu amulou dingu ahi.
15 Beware that none of you stops [trusting in] God, [who has done kind things for us that we did not deserve] (OR, Beware that you have never [experienced] God kindly [saving you]). Be on guard lest any of you [act in an evil way towards others], because your doing that will [grow like] [MET] a root [grows into a big plant], and the result [of your] doing that will be that many believers will sin and become unacceptable to God.
Pathen milungsetna changlel a naum louna dinguvin nangho khat le khat kivephauvin. Kihongphauvin koiman thinathei lunggitlou kengpumin nahinkho man suhboi dauhen, mitampi suhboh thei ahi.
16 Do not let anyone be immoral, or be irreligious as Esau was. He exchanged the rights he had as a firstborn son for only one meal.
Chingtheiyun koima Esau tobanga chonlambei ahilouleh Pathen ngaisahlouna neiya cha masapen hina chanvou chu an khoukhat neh a kijoh doh umkhauvin nate.
17 You know that after he did that, he wanted to receive [what his father would promise to give him if] he blessed him. But [his father] was unable [to change what he had already done]. And Esau found no way to change things, even though he sought tearfully to do that.
Aman khonungin apa phatthei bohna chu achannom vang'in kisihna dinga vaigei behseh ahitah jeh in kisih a kappuma ahol vang'in akiphalpeh tapoi.
18 In coming [to God] you have not [experienced things like what the Israeli people experienced] at [Sinai] Mountain. [They] approached [a mountain that God told them they] should not touch. [They approached] a blazing fire, and it was gloomy and dark [DOU], and there was a hurricane/cyclone.
Nangho Israel ten Sinai mol a amuu meikou, muthim lhangkhal kiheh, chimpei aumna mun, molchung mun tobanga chu hunga nahi pouve.
19 They heard a trumpet sounding and they heard [God] speak. The result was that those who heard it pleaded for God not to speak to them like that again.
Ijeh ham itileh amaho chun sumkon kimut ginglenglung chu ajauvin chule tijat umtah awgin chu ajah uva konin Pathen in ajah uva thu aseitahlou dingin ataovun ahi.
20 When [God] commanded them saying, “If [a person or] even an animal touches this mountain, [you] must [kill him/it by] throwing stones at him/it,” they were terrified.
Mihonpi chun Pathen Thupeh, “Ganchan mol chu atohkhah jongleh songa selih ding ahi,” kiti chu kidang asauvin anunglhuh ui.
21 Truly, because Moses was terrified after seeing what happened [on the mountain], he said, “I am trembling because I am very afraid!”
Mose amatah jengin jong amittaha amuchun atijavalin aseitai, “Keima kati ajan chule kakithing thing e,” ati.
22 Instead, [it is as though] you have come to [the presence of God in heaven] [MET]. [That is like what your ancestors did when they came to worship] God on Zion Hill, in Jerusalem, in the city of God who is all-powerful. You have come (OR, you are coming) to where there are countless angels, who are rejoicing as they have gathered together.
Ahin, nangho Zion Mol, hingjing Pathen khopi, Van Jerusalem, chule asangsang simsenlou vantil ho kikhopna mun chu lhunga nahi tauve.
23 You have joined all the believers [who have privileges like] firstborn sons, whose names [God] has written down in heaven. You have come to God, who will judge everyone. You have come to where the spirits of God’s people are, people who lived righteously [before they died], and who now have been made perfect [in heaven].
Nangho Pathen cha apeng masa, van'a aminu kisun ho lah a chu hunga nahi tauve. Nangho Pathen ijakai chunga thutanpa henga chu hunga nahi tauve. Nangho tua chamkima kisem chondih ho lhagao umna van gam'a chu hunga nahi tauve.
24 You have come to Jesus, who arranged a new covenant [between us and God]. You have accepted [what he accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died on the cross. His doing that made it possible for God to forgive us]. That is better than the blood of Abel, [who just] wanted revenge because his brother Cain murdered him.
Nangho Pathen le miho kikah a palaiya pangpa Yeshua henga chu hunga nahi tauvin, chule thisan kithekhum muna chu hunga nahi tauve, hichu Abel thisan tobanga phuba lahna dinga ka-na awgin chu hilouvin, ngaidamna thu asei ahitai.
25 Beware that you do not refuse to listen to [God] who is speaking to you. The Israeli people did not escape [God punishing them] when [Moses] (OR, [God]) warned them here on earth. So we shall surely not escape [God punishing us] if we reject him when he warns us from heaven! [RHQ]
Najah uva thuseipa thu chu ngailouva naum louna dinguvin kichih theiyun. Ijeh ham itileh Israel mipiten bon Mose, leiset'a athupole palaipa, sei angailou jeh uva asochatlou uva ahileh, eihon vana kona thuseipa thu chu ingailou uleh ihoidoh louhel dingu ahi.
26 The earth shook [PRS] then when he spoke [MTY] [at Sinai Mountain]. But now he has promised, “I will shake the earth again, one more time, but I will shake heaven too.”
Pathen in Sinai Mola kona thu asei chun a awgin chun leiset ahotlingin, hinla tun thutep chom dang khat eineiyuve, “Keiman leiset jengseh kaholing ding ahipon, vanho jong kaholing ding ahi,” ati.
27 The words “again, one more time” indicate that things [on earth] will be shaken {that [he] will shake things [on earth]}, meaning that he will set aside all that [he] has created, in order that the things [in heaven] that cannot be shaken {that nothing can shake} may remain forever.
Hiche hin thilsem jouse kihotlingsoh a chule kichondoh ding ahi ti avetsah e, hitia chu akiling theilou ho bou umden ding ahi.
28 So, let us thank God that we are becoming members of a kingdom that nothing can shake. Let us worship/serve God in a way that pleases him by being greatly in awe [DOU] before him.
Eihon Lenggam khat akiling louhel ichan diu ahijeh'in, kichatna thenga Ama houna le ginna neipum in thangvah'u hitin chule Pathen lunglhaina peu hite.
29 Remember that the God we [worship/serve] is like a fire that burns up everything [that is impure] [MET]!
Ijeh ham itileh IPathenu chu mivallhum meikong ahi.
