¹ስለዚህ ከሰማነው ነገር ምናልባት እንዳንወሰድ፥ ለእርሱ አብልጠን ልንጠነቀቅ ያስፈልገናል።

¹Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that were heard, lest perhaps we drift away.

²በመላእክት የተነገረው ቃል ጽኑ ከሆነ፥ መተላለፍና አለመታዘዝም ሁሉ የጽድቅን ብድራት ከተቀበለ፥ እኛስ እንዲህ ያለውን ታላቅ መዳን ቸል ብንለው፥ እንዴት እናመልጣለን?

²For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense;

³ይህ በጌታ በመጀመሪያ የተነገረ ነበርና፥ የሰሙትም ለእኛ አጸኑት፥

³how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation—which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard;

⁴እግዚአብሔርም እርሱ ራሱ እንደ ፈቀደ በምልክትና በድንቅ ነገር በልዩ ልዩ ተአምራትም፥ መንፈስ ቅዱስንም በማደል አብሮ መሰከረለት።

⁴God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?

⁵ስለ እርሱ የምንናገርበትን የሚመጣውን ዓለም ለመላእክት ያስገዛው አይደለምና።

⁵For he didn’t subject the world to come, of which we speak, to angels.

⁶ነገር ግን አንዱ በአንድ ስፍራ። ታስበው ዘንድ ሰው ምንድር ነው? ወይስ ትጎበኘው ዘንድ የሰው ልጅ ምንድር ነው?

⁶But one has somewhere testified, saying, “What is man, that you think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?

⁷ከመላእክት ይልቅ በጥቂት አሳነስኸው፤ የክብርና የምስጋና ዘውድ ጫንህለት፥ በእጆችህም ሥራ ላይ ሾምኸው፤

⁷You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor. TR adds “and set him over the works of your hands”

⁸ሁሉን ከእግሮቹ በታች አስገዛህለት ብሎ መሰከረ። ሁሉን ከእርሱ በታች ባስገዛ ጊዜ ያልተገዛለት ምንም አልተወምና። አሁን ግን ሁሉ እንደ ተገዛለት ገና አናይም፤

⁸You have put all things in subjection under his feet.” Psalm 8:4-6 For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don’t see all things subjected to him, yet.

⁹ነገር ግን በእግዚአብሔር ጸጋ ስለ ሰው ሁሉ ሞትን ይቀምስ ዘንድ፥ ከመላእክት ይልቅ በጥቂት አንሶ የነበረውን ኢየሱስን ከሞት መከራ የተነሣ የክብርና የምስጋናን ዘውድ ተጭኖ እናየዋለን።

⁹But we see him who has been made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for everyone.

¹⁰ብዙ ልጆችን ወደ ክብር ሲያመጣ የመዳናቸውን ራስ በመከራ ይፈጽም ዘንድ፥ ከእርሱ የተነሣ ሁሉ በእርሱም ሁሉ ለሆነ፥ ለእርሱ ተገብቶታልና።

¹⁰For it became him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

¹¹የሚቀድሰውና የሚቀደሱት ሁሉ ከአንድ ናቸውና፤

¹¹For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brothers The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” ,

¹³ስለዚህም ምክንያት። ስምህን ለወንድሞቼ እነግራቸዋለሁ በማኅበርም መካከል በዜማ አመሰግንሃለሁ፤ ደግሞም። እኔ በእርሱ እታመናለሁ፤ ደግሞም። እነሆኝ እኔን እግዚአብሔር የሰጠኝንም ልጆች ሲል ወንድሞች ብሎ ሊጠራቸው አያፍርም።

¹²saying, “I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst of the congregation I will sing your praise.” Psalm 22:22

¹⁴እንግዲህ ልጆቹ በሥጋና በደም ስለሚካፈሉ፥ እርሱ ደግሞ በሞት ላይ ሥልጣን ያለውን በሞት እንዲሽር፥ ይኸውም ዲያብሎስ ነው፥ በሕይወታቸውም ሁሉ ስለ ሞት ፍርሃት በባርነት ይታሰሩ የነበሩትን ሁሉ ነጻ እንዲያወጣ፥ በሥጋና በደም እንዲሁ ተካፈለ።

¹³Again, “I will put my trust in him.” Isaiah 8:17 Again, “Behold, here I am with the children whom God has given me.” Isaiah 8:18

¹⁶የአብርሃምን ዘር ይዞአል እንጂ የያዘው የመላእክትን አይደለም።

¹⁴Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,

¹⁷ስለዚህ የሕዝብን ኃጢአት ለማስተስረይ፥ ለእግዚአብሔር በሆነው ነገር ሁሉ የሚምርና የታመነ ሊቀ ካህናት እንዲሆን፥ በነገር ሁሉ ወንድሞቹን ሊመስል ተገባው።

¹⁵and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

¹⁸እርሱ ራሱ ተፈትኖ መከራን ስለ ተቀበለ የሚፈተኑትን ሊረዳቸው ይችላልና።

¹⁶For most certainly, he doesn’t give help to angels, but he gives help to the seed of Abraham.

¹⁷Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.

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