¹Because of this it behoveth [us] more abundantly to take heed to the things heard, lest we may glide aside,

¹Seepärast tuleb meil palju hoolsamini panna tähele seda, mida me oleme kuulnud, et meid kõrvale ei uhutaks.

²for if the word being spoken through messengers did become stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience did receive a just recompense,

²Sest kui juba inglite kaudu räägitud sõna jäi püsima ning iga üleastumine ja sõnakuulmatus sai oma õige palga,

³how shall we escape, having neglected so great salvation? which a beginning receiving — to be spoken through the Lord — by those having heard was confirmed to us,

³kuidas siis meie võiksime pageda, kui me ei hooli nii suurest päästest, mis sai alguse Issanda enda kuulutusest ja mida meile on kinnitanud need, kes kuulsid,

⁴God also bearing joint-witness both with signs and wonders, and manifold powers, and distributions of the Holy Spirit, according to His will.

⁴kusjuures Jumal ise on kinnitanud nende tunnistust tunnustähtede ja imedega, mitmesuguste vägevate tegudega ning Püha Vaimu andidega, mida ta jagas oma tahtmise järgi.

⁵For not to messengers did He subject the coming world, concerning which we speak,

⁵Ta ei alistanud ju inglitele tulevast maailma, millest me räägime.

⁶and one in a certain place did testify fully, saying, `What is man, that Thou art mindful of him, or a son of man, that Thou dost look after him?

⁶Aga keegi kusagil ütleb tunnistades: 'Mis on inimene, et sa teda meeles peaksid, või Inimese Poeg, et sa temast hooliksid?

⁷Thou didst make him some little less than messengers, with glory and honour Thou didst crown him, and didst set him over the works of Thy hands,

⁷Sa tegid ta pisut alamaks inglitest, siis sa pärgasid ta kirkuse ja auga,

⁸all things Thou didst put in subjection under his feet,` for in the subjecting to him the all things, nothing did He leave to him unsubjected, and now not yet do we see the all things subjected to him,

⁸kõik sa alistasid tema jalge alla.' Selles kõige alistamises ei ole ta jätnud ju midagi talle alistamata. Aga praegu me ei näe veel, et kõik oleks talle alistatud.

⁹and him who was made some little less than messengers we see — Jesus — because of the suffering of the death, with glory and honour having been crowned, that by the grace of God for every one he might taste of death.

⁹Ometi me näeme teda, Jeesust, kes oli tehtud pisut alamaks inglitest, nii et ta Jumala armu läbi kõigi eest maitseks surma, nüüd pärjatuna kirkuse ja auga surma kannatamise pärast.

¹⁰For it was becoming to Him, because of whom [are] the all things, and through whom [are] the all things, many sons to glory bringing, the author of their salvation through sufferings to make perfect,

¹⁰Sest Jumalale, kelle päralt on kõik ja kelle läbi on kõik, oli kohane, et ta teeks kannatuste kaudu täiuslikuks nende pääste Rajaja, selle, kes viib kirkusse palju lapsi.

¹¹for both he who is sanctifying and those sanctified [are] all of one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

¹¹Jah, niihästi Pühitseja kui pühitsetavad on kõik ühe Isa lapsed. Sel põhjusel Jeesus ei häbenegi neid hüüda vendadeks.

¹²saying, `I will declare Thy name to my brethren, in the midst of an assembly I will sing praise to Thee;` and again, `I will be trusting on Him;`

¹²Ta ütleb: 'Ma tahan kuulutada su nime oma vendadele, koguduse keskel tahan ma laulda sulle kiitust!'

¹³and again, `Behold I and the children that God did give to me.`

¹³Ja taas: 'Ma tahan loota tema peale.' Ja taas: 'Vaata, siin olen mina ja lapsed, keda Jumal on mulle andnud!'

¹⁴Seeing, then, the children have partaken of flesh and blood, he himself also in like manner did take part of the same, that through death he might destroy him having the power of death — that is, the devil —

¹⁴Et nüüd lapsed on liha ja vere osalised, siis on ka Jeesus ise otse samal viisil liha ja vere omaks võtnud, et ta surma kaudu kõrvaldaks selle, kellel on võimus surma üle - see tähendab kuradi -,

¹⁵and might deliver those, whoever, with fear of death, throughout all their life, were subjects of bondage,

¹⁵ja vabastaks need, kes surma kartes olid kogu eluaja orjapõlves.

¹⁶for, doubtless, of messengers it doth not lay hold, but of seed of Abraham it layeth hold,

¹⁶Sest ega ta ometi hoolitse inglite eest, vaid ta hoolitseb Aabrahami soo eest!

¹⁷wherefore it did behove him in all things to be made like to the brethren, that he might become a kind and stedfast chief-priest in the things with God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people,

¹⁷Seepärast ta pidigi kõiges saama vendade sarnaseks, et temast saaks halastav ja ustav ülempreester Jumala ees rahva pattude lepitamiseks.

¹⁸for in that he suffered, himself being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

¹⁸Sest seetõttu, et ta ise on kannatanud kiusatuna, võib ta aidata neid, keda kiusatakse.
