¹Preto musíme tým viacej pozorovať na to, čo sme počuli, aby sme nejako neprešli pomimo.

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

²Lebo ak slovo, hovorené skrze anjelov, bolo pevné, a každé prestúpenie a každý neposluch dostaly spravedlivú odplatu,

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

³jakože my utečieme, ak zanedbáme také veľké spasenie?! Ktoré, keď o ňom začal najdriev hovoriť Pán, nám ztvrdili tí, ktorí ho počuli,

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,

⁴pri čom spolu svedčil Bôh znameniami a zázrakmi a rôznymi mocami a udeľovaním Svätého Ducha podľa svojej vôle.

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

⁵Lebo nie anjelom podriadil budúci svet, o ktorom hovoríme.

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

⁶A ktosi osvedčil kdesi a povedal: Čo je človek, že pamätáš na neho, alebo syn človeka, že ho navštevuješ?!

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?

⁷Učinil si ho čosi málo menším od anjelov, slávou a cťou si ho korunoval a ustanovil si ho nad dielami svojich rúk.

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,

⁸Všetko si poddal pod jeho nohy. Lebo tým, že mu poddal všetko, nenechal ničoho jemu nepoddaného. No, teraz ešte nevidíme, že by mu bolo všetko poddané.

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,

⁹Ale toho čosi málo menším od anjelov učineného vidíme Ježiša, pre utrpenie smrti korunovaného slávou a cťou, aby milosťou Božou za každého okúsil smrť.

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.

¹⁰Lebo mu svedčalo, pre ktorého všetko a skrze ktorého všetko, ktorý doviedol mnoho synov do slávy, veľvodcu ich spasenia dokonalým učiniť utrpením.

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,

¹¹Lebo jako posväcujúci, tak i posväcovaní, všetci sú z jedného, pre ktorú príčinu nehanbí sa volať ich bratmi,

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

¹²keď hovorí: Zvestovať budem tvoje meno svojim bratom, prostred shromaždenia ti budem spievať chvály.

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;`

¹³A zase: Ja sa budem nadejať na neho. A zase: Hľa, ja a deti, ktoré mi dal Bôh.

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

¹⁴Tedy keď deti staly sa účastnými tela a krvi, tak aj on podobným spôsobom stal sa účastným toho istého, aby smrťou zahladil toho, ktorý má vládu smrti, to jest diabla.

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 —

¹⁵a vyprostil ich, všetkých, ktorí bázňou smrti po celý čas žitia boli držaní v rabstve.

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

¹⁶Lebo, tak sa nazdám, nezaujíma sa anjelov, ale sa zaujíma semena Abrahámovho,

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

¹⁷pre čo bol podlžný byť vo všetkom pripodobnený bratom, aby bol milosrdným a verným veľkňazom čo do vecí u Boha, aby smieril hriechy ľudu.

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,

¹⁸Lebo tým, že sám trpel, keď bol pokúšaný, môže spomáhať pokúšaným.

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