< Hebrews 12 >

1 Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us,
Therefore also we ourselves such a great having encompassing us a cloud of witnesses, weight having laid aside every and the easily entangling sin, with endurance may run the lying before us race
2 looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
looking to the of [our] faith founder and perfecter Jesus, who in view of what is lying before Him joy endured [the] cross [its] shame having despised, at right hand and of the throne of God (has sat down. *N+kO)
3 For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you don’t grow weary, fainting in your souls.
do consider fully for the [One] such great having endured from sinners against (Himself *N+k+O) hostility, so that not you may grow weary in the souls of you fainting.
4 You have not yet resisted to blood, striving against sin.
Not yet unto blood have you resisted against sin struggling
5 You have forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as with children, “My son, don’t take lightly the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are reproved by him;
and you have forgotten the exhortation that you as to sons addresses: Son of Mine, not do regard lightly [the] discipline of [the] Lord, nor do faint by Him being reproved.
6 for whom the Lord loves, he disciplines, and chastises every son whom he receives.”
Whom for He loves [the] Lord disciplines, He scourges now every son whom He receives.
7 It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father doesn’t discipline?
As discipline endure, as sons you is treating God; what for (is *k) son [is there] whom not disciplines [his] father?
8 But if you are without discipline, of which all have been made partakers, then you are illegitimate, and not children.
If however without you are of discipline of which partakers they have become all, then illegitimate children and not sons you are.
9 Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?
Furthermore indeed of the flesh of us fathers we were having correctors and we were respecting [them]; not (much *N+kO) (however *n) more will we be in subjection to the Father of spirits and will live?
10 For they indeed for a few days disciplined us as seemed good to them, but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.
Indeed for during a few days according to which is seeming good to them they were disciplining [us], [He] however for which is [our] benefitting in order to share of the holiness of Him.
11 All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
All (now *NK+o) discipline for indeed those being present not it seems of joy to be but of grief, afterward however [the] fruit peaceable to those through it trained it yields of righteousness.
12 Therefore lift up the hands that hang down and the feeble knees,
Therefore the drooped hands and the enfeebled knees do lift up,
13 and make straight paths for your feet, so what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.
and paths straight (do make *N+kO) for the feet of you, so that not the lame may be disabled, may be healed however rather.
14 Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,
Peace do pursue with all and holiness, which without no [one] will behold the Lord;
15 looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you and many be defiled by it,
observing lest any be failing of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness up springing may trouble [you], and through (this *N+kO) may be defiled many;
16 lest there be any sexually immoral person or profane person, like Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal.
lest [there be] any fornicator or profane person as Esau, who for meal one sold the birthright (of himself. *N+kO)
17 For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for a change of mind though he sought it diligently with tears.
You know for that even afterward wishing to inherit the blessing he was rejected; of repentance for place not he found although with tears having earnestly sought it.
18 For you have not come to a mountain that might be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness, darkness, storm,
Not for you have come to [that] being touched (mountain *K) and kindled with fire and to darkness and (to gloom *N+kO) and to storm
19 the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which those who heard it begged that not one more word should be spoken to them,
and of a trumpet to [the] sound and to a voice of declaration which those having heard they excused themselves [asking] not to be addressed to them [the] word;
20 for they could not stand that which was commanded, “If even an animal touches the mountain, it shall be stoned”.
not [able] they were bearing for which is being commanded: If even If even a beast shall touch the mountain, it will be stoned (or with arrow will be shot down *K)
21 So fearful was the appearance that Moses said, “I am terrified and trembling.”
And thus fearful was the [thing] appearing [that] Moses said; Greatly afraid I am and trembling;
22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels,
But you have come to Zion Mount and to [the] city of God [the] living, to Jerusalem [the] heavenly and to myriads of angels
23 to the festal gathering and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect,
to [the] assembly and to [the] church of [the] firstborn enrolled in [the] heavens and to [the] judge God of all and to [the] spirits of [the] righteous perfected
24 to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than that of Abel.
and of a covenant new [the] mediator to Jesus and to [the] blood of sprinkling (better thing *N+KO) speaking than that of Abel.
25 See that you don’t refuse him who speaks. For if they didn’t escape when they refused him who warned on the earth, how much more will we not escape who turn away from him who warns from heaven,
do take heed lest you may refuse the [One] speaking; If for they not (escaped *N+kO) on earth having refused the [One] divinely instructing [them], (much *N+kO) less we ourselves the [One] from [the] heavens turning away from,
26 whose voice shook the earth then, but now he has promised, saying, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heavens.”
whose voice the earth shook at that time, now however He has promised saying; Yet once [more] I myself (will shake *N+kO) not only the earth but also heaven.
27 This phrase, “Yet once more” signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
This now Yet once [more], signifies that of the [things] being shaken removing as created, so that may remain the [things] not being shaken.
28 Therefore, receiving a Kingdom that can’t be shaken, let’s have grace, through which we serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,
Therefore a kingdom not to be shaken receiving we may have grace through which (we may serve *NK+o) well pleasingly God with reverence and (fear; *N+kO)
29 for our God is a consuming fire.
Also for the God of us [is] a fire consuming.
