¹Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

¹Huaijiakin, huchitela theihpihte-meipi thupi umsuaka I om theiin, honhihnok peuhmah leh khelhna eimaha belhte koihmang ni, huan, ima ua kitaitehna ding om ah kuhka ltakin tai ni.

²looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of [our] faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

²Jesu, I ginna siampa leh hihkippa, a maa kipahna om jiaka zahlaknate ngaineua krosa thuakpa, Pathian mang tutphah taklama vatu, Amah lam enin.

³For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against himself, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.

³Nakha lam ua na bah ua, nalung kiak louhna dingun, mikhialte apana huchibanga selkalhna thuakpa tuh ngaihtuah dih ua leh.

⁴Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:

⁴Khelhna douna sisan suak hialin na pangnai tadih kei ua; hasotna thu, tate taihilh banga nou hontaihilhna, na namangngilhta uhi.

⁵and ye have forgotten the exhortation which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;

⁵Ka ta, Toupa sawina ngaineu kenla, a taihilha na om inleng lungke tuan ken;

⁶For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

⁶Toupan a itte sawi naka, ta a kipahpih tuh a vo nak hi. chih.

⁷It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom [his] father chasteneth not?

⁷Na thuak ujaw noumau ding ahi; tate tunga hih bangin Pathianin na tunguah a hiha; pa sawi louh ta kua a om ngeia?

⁸But if ye are without chastening, whereof all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

⁸Ta chihna teng loha, sawina pen loh loua na om unbel, ta tak hilouin, sawn na hi ua kei dia.

⁹Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

⁹Huailou leng eite hon sawi ding, I sa pate uh inei uhi, huaite lah jahtak ngal hanga; huai sanga thupijaw in, I hinna dingin, khate Pa thuthu in I om kei ding ua hia?

¹⁰For they indeed for a few days chastened [us] as seemed good to them; but he for [our] profit, that [we] may be partakers of his holiness.

¹⁰Amau jaw ni sawtlou chik, hoih a sak bangjel un a honsawi ngei ua, aman bel, a siangthouna I tan sam theihna dingin, I hoihna dingin a honsawi jaw ahi.

¹¹All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, [even the fruit] of righteousness.

¹¹Huan, sawina himhim thuaklaiin kipahhuai in a lang keia, khasiathuai takin a lang jaw hi, thuaknungin tuh huchia sawijawta omte dingin gah khamuanhuaitak, diktatna tak a suah sak jel ahi.

¹²Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the palsied knees;

¹²Huchiin, khut kaikhete liktou unla, khut jawte toh;

¹³and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame be not turned out of the way, but rather be healed.

¹³Huan, khebai kilawisak loua, hihdama a om jawkna dingin, na khete uh dingin lamtang bawl un.

¹⁴Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:

¹⁴Mi tengteng toh kituahna leh siangthouna delh un, huai siangthouna louin kua mahin Toupa a mu kei ding uhi:

¹⁵looking carefully lest [there be] any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby the many be defiled;

¹⁵Pilvang takin enun, huchilouin jaw Pathian hehpihna ngah zoulou kuahiam a om dinga, khakna zung banghiam hongsela nou honhihbuaiin, huaiin tuh mi tampi hihnitin a om ding ua;

¹⁶lest [there be] any fornication, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright.

¹⁶kingaihhat hiam, Esau banga Pathian zahlou mi hiam a hawngawm kha ding hi. Amantuh a tamasahihna an khatvei nek in khawngta hi.

¹⁷For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place for a change of mind [in his father,] though he sought is diligently with tears.

¹⁷Huainung in vualzawlna tuh gouluah a ut inleng, khitui kekawm in phatuamngai takin zawng mahleh, kisikna hun amuh louh ziak in paih in a awmta chih na thei ngal ua.

¹⁸For ye are not come unto [a mount] that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

¹⁸Nouzaw tangkhawlh theih, meia kangte, mei vomte, mialte, huihpite,

¹⁹and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which [voice] they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them;

¹⁹pengkul ginnate, thugen ging awmnate tung nahi ngal kei ua; hua ging za tentuh thudang himhim a kiang a gen nawnlou ding in angen ua;

²⁰for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;

²⁰sa nangawn in huai tang a khawih aleh suang a denlup in a awm ding ahi, chih, thupiakpen a thuak thei ta ngalkei ua;

²¹and so fearful was the appearance, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:

²¹A thil muh peuhmah uh a kihtakhuai mahmah, huchi in, Mosi in, ka lau a, ka naklin mahmah achi hial hi.

²²but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,

²²Himahleh Ziontangte, Pathian hing khua, van Jerusalemte, sim zawhloh angel hawn ki khawmpite,

²³to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

²³Tamasa van a min tuang saptuam hawn kiangte, Pathian, mitengteng naihtuah pa kiang bang, midiktat hihhawihkimte kha kiang bang,

²⁴and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than [that of] Abel.

²⁴Jesu, thukhunthak palai kiang bang, sisan theh, Abel sisan sang a thu hoih zaw genpa kiang bang tung nahi zaw uhi.

²⁵See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not when they refused him that warned [them] on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape] who turn away from him that [warneth] from heaven:

²⁵Thugenpa tuh nana deihkei kha ding uh, pilvang un. Lei a amaute taihilh khawlpa a deihlouh ua bawn, gimthuakna a pelh louh ngal un tuh, eite, van a kipan a hon taihilhpa ki lehheisante, ipel kei hawldiak ding hi.

²⁶whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.

²⁶Huchihlaiin huai aw inlei a hihling a; himahleh tunzaw, Khatvei lei kia hilou in, van leng ka hih ling nawn ding chi in, a kichiam zawta hi.

²⁷And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.

²⁷Huan, Khatvei ka hihling nawn ding chihin, thil lingloute tuh a om gige theihna ding in, thil nalingte tuh thil siamte bang phet in, suanmang in a om ding chih atheisak hi.

²⁸Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:

²⁸Huchiin, gam hih lin vuallouh itan ziakin, hehpihna inei ding ua, huaziakin zah leh laudan siam kawm in, Pathian pahtaklam na isem thei ding uh a nahi;Pathian zaw mi katmang hat mei ahi ngala.

²⁹for our God is a consuming fire.

²⁹Pathian zaw mi katmang hat mei ahi ngala.
