¹Let *us* also therefore, having so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, laying aside every weight, and sin which so easily entangles us, run with endurance the race that lies before us,

¹[Fananarana hampahatanjaka ny sain'ny malemy finoana sy hampaharitra azy] Koa amin'izany, satria misy vavolombelona maro be toy izany manodidina antsika toy ny rahona, dia aoka isika koa hanaisotra izay rehetra mitambesatra amintsika mbamin'ny ota izay malaky mahazo antsika, ary aoka isika hihazakazaka amin'ny faharetana amin'izao fihazakazahana filokana napetraka eo anoloantsika izao,

²looking stedfastly on Jesus the leader and completer of faith: who, in view of the joy lying before him, endured [the] cross, having despised [the] shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

²mijery an'i Jesosy, Tompon'ny finoantsika sy Mpanefa azy, Izay naharitra ny hazo fijaliana, fa tsy nitandro henatra, mba hahazoany ny fifaliana napetraka teo anoloany, ka dia efa mipetraka eo amin'ny ankavanan'ny seza fiandrianan'Andriamanitra Izy.

³For consider well him who endured so great contradiction from sinners against himself, that ye be not weary, fainting in your minds.

³Fa hevero tsara Ilay naharitra ny fanoherana nataon'ny mpanota taminy, fandrao ho ketraka ianareo, ka ho reraka ny fanahinareo. [ Na: ireo mpanota manimba tena]

⁴Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, wrestling against sin.

⁴Hianareo tsy mbola nanohitra niady tamin'ny ota hatramin'ny fahalatsahan-drà.

⁵And ye have quite forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: My son, despise not [the] chastening of [the] Lord, nor faint [when] reproved by him;

⁵Ary hadinonareo ny fananarana izay milaza aminareo toy ny amin'ny zanaka hoe: "Anaka, aza atao ho zavatra kely ny famaizana ataon'i Jehovah, Ary aza reraka, raha resi-lahatry ny anatra ataony ianao;

⁶for whom [the] Lord loves he chastens, and scourges every son whom he receives.

⁶Fa izay tian'i Jehovah no faizany, Ary izay zanaka rehetra raisiny no kapohiny" (Oha. 3.11,12).

⁷Ye endure for chastening, God conducts himself towards you as towards sons; for who is the son that the father chastens not?

⁷Famaizana no anton'ny iaretanareo; Andriamanitra mitondra anareo tahaka ny zanaka; fa aiza moa izay zanaka tsy faizan-drainy?

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

⁸Fa raha tsy faizana tahaka ny itondrana azy rehetra ianareo, dia zazasary, fa tsy zanaka.

⁹Moreover we have had the fathers of our flesh as chasteners, and we reverenced [them]; shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?

⁹Ary koa, isika dia nanana ny rain'ny nofontsika ho mpanafay antsika ka efa nanaja azy; tsy mainka va ny hanekentsika ny Rain'ny fanahy, ka ho velona isika?

¹⁰For they indeed chastened for a few days, as seemed good to them; but he for profit, in order to the partaking of his holiness.

¹⁰Fa ireny dia nanao izay hahafay antsika tamin'ny andro vitsy araka izay sitrapony, fa Izy kosa dia ny hahasoa, mba handraisantsika ny fahamasinany.

¹¹But no chastening at the time seems to be [matter] of joy, but of grief; but afterwards yields [the] peaceful fruit of righteousness to those exercised by it.

¹¹Fa ny famaizana rehetra dia tsy mba atao ho mahafaly andro anaovana, fa mampahory; fa rehefa afaka izany, dia vao mitondra ny vokatry ny fahamarinana hiadanana ho an'izay nanaovana azy izy.

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

¹²Koa hatanjaho ny tanana miraviravy sy ny lohalika malemy; [ Na: ahitsio]

¹³and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame be not turned aside; but that rather it may be healed.

¹³ary manaova lala-mahitsy halehan'ny tongotrareo, mba tsy hampipitsoka ny tongotry ny mandringa, fa ny mba hahasitrana azy kosa.

¹⁴Pursue peace with all, and holiness, without which no one shall see the Lord:

¹⁴Miezaha mitady fihavanana amin'ny olona rehetra ary fahamasinana; fa izay. tsy manam-pahamasinana dia tsy hahita ny Tompo.

¹⁵watching lest [there be] any one who lacks the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and many be defiled by it;

¹⁵Ary mitandrema tsara, fandrao hisy hiala amin'ny fahasoavan'Andriamanitra; fandrao hisy faka mangidy mitsimoka hampikorontana, ka ho voaloto ny maro;

¹⁶lest [there be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one meal sold his birthright;

¹⁶fandrao hisy mpijangajanga na olona tsy manaja ny masina, dia tahaka an'i Esao, izay nivarotra ny fizokiany hahazoany hanina indraim-bava.

¹⁷for ye know that also afterwards, desiring to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, (for he found no place for repentance) although he sought it earnestly with tears.

¹⁷Fa fantatrareo fa rehefa afaka izany, raha ta-handova ny fitahiana izy, dia nolavina; fa tsy nahita izay hibebahana izy; na dia nitady fatratra tamin'ny ranomaso aza.

¹⁸For ye have not come to [the mount] that might be touched and was all on fire, and to obscurity, and darkness, and tempest,

¹⁸[Ny halehiben'ny fahasoavana azo amin'ny fanekena vaovao, sy ny halehiben'ny helok'izay mandà izany] Fa ianareo tsy mby eo amin'izay tendrombohitra azo tsapaina sady mirehitra afo, dia eo amin'ny fahamaintisana sy ny aizina na sy ny tafio-drivotra

¹⁹and trumpet's sound, and voice of words; which they that heard, excusing themselves, declined [the] word being addressed to them any more:

¹⁹sy ny fanenon'ny trompetra ary ny feon'ny teny, ka izay nandre izany dia nangataka mba tsy hasian-teny intsony izy;

²⁰(for they were not able to bear what was enjoined: And if a beast should touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;

²⁰fa tsy tohany ilay nandidiana hoe: "Ary raha misy biby aza mikasika ny tendrombohitra, dia hotoraham-bato izany" (Eks. 19. 12, 13),

²¹and, so fearful was the sight, Moses said, I am exceedingly afraid and full of trembling;)

²¹ary satria loza indrindra ny fahitana, dia hoy Mosesy: "Matahotra loatra sy mangovitra indrindra aho" (Deo]. 9.19).

²²but ye have come to mount Zion; and to [the] city of [the] living God, heavenly Jerusalem; and to myriads of angels,

²²Fa ianareo kosa efa mby eo an-tendrombohitra Ziona, tanànan'Andriamanitra velona, dia Jerosalema any an-danitra, ary ho ao amin'ny anjely tsy omby alinalina,

²³the universal gathering; and to [the] assembly of the firstborn [who are] registered in heaven; and to God, judge of all; and to [the] spirits of just [men] made perfect;

²³amin'ny fihaonana fifaliana sy ny fiangonan'ny lahimatoa voasoratra any an-danitra, sy amin'Andriamanitra, Mpitsara ny olona rehetra, ary amin'ny fanahin'ny olona marina izay efa natao tanteraka, [ Na: ho amin'ireo tsy omby alinalina, dia ny fivorian'ny anjely] [ Gr. eklesia]

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

²⁴sy amin'i Jesosy, Mpanalalana amin'ny fanekena vaovao, ary amin'ny rà famafazana, izay tsara lavitra noho ny an'i Abela.

²⁵See that ye refuse not him that speaks. For if those did not escape who had refused him who uttered the oracles on earth, much more we who turn away from him [who does so] from heaven:

²⁵Tandremo mba tsy holavinareo Izay miteny. Fa raha izy ireo tsy afa-nandositra tamin'ny nandavany ilay nilaza ny tenin'Andriamanitra taminy tetỳ ambonin'ny tany, mainka fa isika, raha mihodina miala amin'ilay avy any an-danitra,

²⁶whose voice then shook the earth; but now he has promised, saying, Yet once will *I* shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.

²⁶Izay nampihorohoro ny tany fahiny tamin'ny feony; fa ankehitriny Izy efa nanao teny fikasana hoe: "Indray maka koa tsy ny tany ihany no hampihorohoroiko, fa ny lanitra koa" (Hag. 2.6).

²⁷But this Yet once, signifies the removing of what is shaken, as being made, that what is not shaken may remain.

²⁷Ary ny hoe "indray maka koa" dia manambara ny hanovana izay zavatra ampihorohoroina, toy ny zavatra natao, mba haharetan'izay zavatra tsy ampihorohoroina.

²⁸Wherefore let us, receiving a kingdom not to be shaken, have grace, by which let us serve God acceptably with reverence and fear.

²⁸Koa satria mandray fanjakana tsy azo ampihorohoroina isika, dia aoka isika hanana fahasoavana ho entintsika manao izay fanompoana sitrak'Andriamanitra amin'ny fanajana sy ny fahatahorana; [ Na: hanana fanahy misaotra]fa Andriamanitsika dia afo mandevona (Deo. 4.24).

²⁹For also our God [is] a consuming fire.

²⁹fa Andriamanitsika dia afo mandevona (Deo. 4.24).
