Hebrearrei 12
1 Gu-ere bada, hain testimoniozco hodey handiac inguratzen gaituenaz gueroz, carga gucia, eta gu errachqui trabatzen gaituen bekatua egotziric, constantqui garreitzan proposatu içan çaicun lasterrari:
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].
2 Beha gaudelaric fedearen capitainagana eta, compliçaleagana, Iesusgana: ceinec escutan çuen bozcarioaren orde suffritu vkan baitu crutzea, ahalquea menospreciaturic, eta Iaincoaren thronoaren escuinean iarri içan da.
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].
3 Considera eçaçue bada diligentqui nor den halaco contradictionea bere buruären contra bekatoretaric suffritu vkan duena, çuen gogoetan faltaturic akit etzaiteztençat.
[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.
4 Oraino eztuçue odolerano resistitu vkan, bekatuaren contra combatitzen çaretela:
While you have struggled against [being tempted to] sin, you have not yet bled [and died because of resisting evil, as Jesus did].
5 Eta ahanci çaiçue exhortationea, ceinec çuey haourrey beçala erraiten baitrauçue, Ene haourrá, ezteçála menosprecia Iaunaren gaztiguä, eta eztaquiála gogoa falta harçaz corregitzen aicenean.
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],
6 Ecen maite duena Iaunac gaztigatzen dic, eta recebitzen duen haour gucia cehatzen dic.
because it is everyone whom he loves whom the Lord disciplines, and he punishes everyone whom he accepts as his child.
7 Baldin gaztigamenduric suffritzen baduçue, Iaincoa bere haourrey anço presentatzen çaiçue: ecen cein da haourra aitác gaztigatzen eztuena?
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].
8 Bada baldin gaztigamendu gabe baçarete, ceinetan participant baitirade guciac, beraz bastard çarete eta ez seme.
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].
9 Eta gure gorputzén aitác gaztigari vkan ditugu, eta reuerentiatan eduqui ditugu: ezgaitzaitza spirituén Aitari vnguiz suietago içanen, eta vicico baicara?
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]!
10 Ecen hec egun gutitacotz, berey irudi çayen beçala, gaztigatzen guentuztén: baina hunec gure probetchutan, haren saindutassunean participant garençát.
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.
11 Bada gaztigu guciac ordu berean eztirudi bozcariotaco dela, aitzitic tristitiataco: baina guero iustitiazco fructu baquezcoa rendatzen draue harçaz exercitatu dirateney.
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.
12 Goititzaçue bada çuen escu lachoac, eta çuen belhaun iunctura partituac chuchent itzaçue:
So, [instead of acting as though you were spiritually exhausted], renew yourselves [MET] spiritually.
13 Eta bidesca chuchenac eguin ietzeçue çuen oiney: maingu den gauçá bidetic aldara eztadinçát, bainaitzitic sendo dadin.
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.
14 Baqueari çarreitzate guciequin, eta saindutassunari, cein gabe nehorc ezpaitu Iauna ikussiren.
Try to live peacefully with all people. Seek to be holy, since no one will see the Lord if he is not holy.
15 Gogoatzen duçuelaric nehor aldara eztadin Iaincoaren gratiatic: cembeit erro karmin goiti ialguiten denec trubla etzaitzatençát: eta anhitz harçaz satsu eztitecençát.
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.
16 Eztén nehor paillard edo profano, Esau beçala, ceinec vianda batetan sal baitzeçan bere lehen sortzezco primeçá.
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.
17 Ecen badaquiçue are guero heretatzeco benedictionea desiratzen çuelaric, refusatu içan dela: ecen etzeçan eriden penitentiataco lekuric, nigar vrirequin benedictionearen escatu içan bacen-ere.
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.
18 Ecen etzarete ethorri escuz hunqui ahal daitequeen mendi batetara, ez erratzen den sura, ez haice buhumbara, ez lanhora eta tempestatera,
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.
19 Eta trompetta soinura eta hitzén vozera, cein ençun vkan çutenéc, requeri baitzeçaten guehiagoric ezlaquién dreça hitza.
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.
20 (Ecen manatzen cena ecin suffri ceçaqueten, cein baitzen, Baldin abre batec-ere mendia hunqui badeça, lapidaturen da edo gueciaz iraganen da.
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.
21 Eta Moysesec (hambat cen terrible eracusten cena) erran ceçan, Icitu naiz eta ikaratu)
Truly, because Moses was terrified after seeing what happened [on the mountain], he said, “I am trembling because I am very afraid!”
22 Baina ethorri içan çarete Siongo mendira, eta Iainco viciaren ciuitatera, Ierusalem celestialera, eta Aingueruén anhitz millataco compainiara,
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.
23 Eta ceruètan scribatuac diraden lehen sorthuén congregationera, eta gucién iuge den Iaincoagana, eta iusto sanctificatuen spirituetara:
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].
24 Eta Iesusgana alliança berrico Arartecoagana, eta Abelenac baino gauça hobeac erraiten dituen odol issurira.
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.
25 Beguirauçue refusa ezteçaçuen minço dena: ecen baldin itzuri içan ezpadirade Iaincoaren icenean minço cena menospreciatzen çutenac lurrean, gu anhitzez guehiago punituren gara, baldin cerutic minço denaganic erauz bagaitez.
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]
26 Ceinen vozac orduan higui baitzeçan lurra: baina orain denuntiatu vkan du, dioela, Oraino behin nic higuituren dut ez solament lurra, baina ceruä-ere.
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.”
27 Eta hitz hunec Oraino behin, declaratzen du fermu eztiraden gaucen, hala nola escuz eguin diradenen deseguitea: fermu diradenac daudecençat.
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.
28 Hunegatic higui ecin daitequeen resumá hartzen dugularic, daducagun gratiá, ceinez hala cerbitza baiteçaquegu Iaincoa non haren gogaraco baiquirate, reuerentiarequin eta beldurrequin.
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.
29 Ecen gure Iaincoa su consumitzen duen-bat da.
Remember that the God we [worship/serve] is like a fire that burns up everything [that is impure] [MET]!
