Hebrews 12
Maori Bible
12 Na, i tenei kapua nui o nga kaiwhakaatu e karapoti nei i a tatou, whakarerea e tatou nga whakataimaha katoa, me te hara whakaeke tata, kia manawanui hoki tatou ki te oma i te omanga e takoto nei i to tatou aroaro;
2 Me te titiro pu ano ki a Ihu, ki te kaitimata, ki te kaiwhakaoti i te whakapono; i whakaaro hoki ia ki te hari i tona aroaro, a whakamanawanui ana ki te ripeka, whakahawea ana ki te whakama, na kua noho ki matau o te torona o te Atua.
3 Whakaaroa hoki ia i whakamanawanui nei ki taua totohe nui a te hunga hara ki a ia, kei hoha o koutou ngakau, kei ngakaukore koutou.
4 Ko ta koutou pakanga, kahore ano kia tae noa ki te toto i a koutou e whawhai na ki te hara.
5 A kua wareware koutou ki te kupu whakahau e korero nei ki a koutou, me te mea he tama koutou, E taku tama, kaua e whakahawea ki ta te Ariki papaki; kei ngakaukore hoki ina riria e ia:
6 E papaki ana hoki te Ariki ki tana e aroha ai, e whiua ana hoki e ia nga tama katoa e whakatamarikitia ana ki a ia.
7 Hei pakinga ta koutou e manawanui ai; e rite ana ta te Atua meatanga ki a koutou ki tana ki nga tama tupu; ko wai hoki te tama e kore e pakia e tona papa?
8 Ki te kahore ia o koutou pakinga, te mea e whakawhiwhia ana ki te katoa, he poriro koutou, ehara i te tama.
9 Tetahi, he matua ano o tatou no te wahi ki te kikokiko, he mea papaki tatou na ratou; i hopohopo ano tatou ki a ratou: kaua ianei e nui noa atu to tatou ngohengohe ki te Matua o nga wairua, kia ora ai?
10 Ko ta ratou papaki hoki he torutoru nei nga ra, he mea ano na ta ratou ake i whakaaro ai; ko ta tenei ia hei pai mo tatou, kia whiwhi ai tatou ki tona tapu.
11 Ko nga pakinga katoa, e kore e kiia inaianei hei whakahari, engari hei whakapouri: muri iho ia ka puta mai te hua rangimarie o te tika, ki te hunga e whakamahia ana ki taua mea.
12 Heoi kia ara nga ringaringa kua tukua iho, me nga turi ngoikore:
13 Hanga hoki etahi huarahi tika mo o koutou waewae, kei whakapeaua ketia atu te kopa; engari kia ora ake i te mate.
14 Whaia te rongo kia mau ki te katoa, me te tapu hoki, ki te kahore hoki tenei e kore tetahi tangata e kite i te Ariki.
15 Me te titiro marie kei hapa tetahi i to te Atua aroha noa; kei pihi ake tetahi pakiaka o te kawa hei whakararuraru, e poke ai te tokomaha;
16 Kei moepuku tetahi, kei whakarihariha ranei, kei pera me Ehau: i hokona ra e ia tona matamuatanga ki te kainga kotahi.
17 E matau ana hoki koutou ki tona hiahia i muri kia riro i a ia te manaaki, a kapea ana ia: kihai hoki i kitea he wahi mo te ripeneta; i rapua marietia ano e ia me te heke ano o nga roimata.
18 Ehara hoki i te mea kua tae koutou ki te maunga e taea te whakapa atu, ki te ahi e ka ana, ki te pango kerekere, ki te pouri, ki te tupuhi,
19 Ki te tangi o te tetere, ki te reo e korero ana; i inoi ra te hunga i rangona ai kia kaua he kupu ki a ratou i muri iho:
20 Kihai hoki ratou i kaha ake ki te mea i whakaritea mai, Na, ahakoa he kararehe e pa atu ki te maunga, me aki ki te kohatu;
21 Koia ano te mataku o te mea i puta mai ra, i mea ai a Mohi, Mataku rawa ahau, wiri rawa:
22 Engari kua tae nei koutou ki Maunga Hiona, ki te pa o te Atua ora, ki Hiruharama i te rangi, ki nga mano tini o nga anahera,
23 Ki te huihui nui, ki te hahi o nga matamua, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te rangi, ki te Atua hoki, ki te kaiwhakawa o nga tangata katoa, ki nga wairua ano o te hunga tika kua oti te mea kia tino tika,
24 Ki a Ihu ano hoki, ki te takawaenga o te kawenata hou, ki nga toto o te tauhiuhinga, he pai ake nei nga korero i to Apera.
25 Kia mahara kei whakarere koutou i tenei e korero mai nei. Ki te mea hoki kihai i mawhiti te hunga i paopao ki tera i korero ra i runga i te whenua, ina e kore rawa ano tatou, ki te tahuri ke atu i tenei kua korero mai nei i te rangi:
26 Ngaueue ana te whenua i tona reo i reira: inaianei ia kua puaki tana kupu whakaari, kua mea ia, Kia kotahi ano meatanga, a ehara i te mea ko te whenua anake, ko te rangi ano hoki taku e whakangaueue ai.
27 Ko taua kupu nei hoki, Kia kotahi meatanga, hei whakakite i te putanga ketanga o nga mea ka whakangaueuetia ra, he mea hanga hoki, mau tonu iho ai nga mea e kore nei e whakangaueuetia.
28 Na, ka riro nei i a tatou he kingitanga e kore e taea te whakangaueue, kia whiwhi tatou ki te aroha noa e manakohia mai ai ta tatou e mahi nei ki te Atua i runga i te hopohopo, i te wehi:
29 He ahi hoki e kai ana to tatou Atua.
Hebrews 12
New International Version
Hebrews 12
New International Version
12 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run(A) with perseverance(B) the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus,(C) the pioneer(D) and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross,(E) scorning its shame,(F) and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.(G) 3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary(H) and lose heart.
God Disciplines His Children
4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.(I) 5 And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says,
“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline,
and do not lose heart(J) when he rebukes you,
6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,(K)
and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.”[a](L)
7 Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children.(M) For what children are not disciplined by their father? 8 If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline(N)—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. 9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits(O) and live!(P) 10 They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness.(Q) 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace(R) for those who have been trained by it.
12 Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.(S) 13 “Make level paths for your feet,”[b](T) so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.(U)
Warning and Encouragement
14 Make every effort to live in peace with everyone(V) and to be holy;(W) without holiness no one will see the Lord.(X) 15 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God(Y) and that no bitter root(Z) grows up to cause trouble and defile many. 16 See that no one is sexually immoral,(AA) or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son.(AB) 17 Afterward, as you know, when he wanted to inherit this blessing, he was rejected. Even though he sought the blessing with tears,(AC) he could not change what he had done.
The Mountain of Fear and the Mountain of Joy
18 You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom and storm;(AD) 19 to a trumpet blast(AE) or to such a voice speaking words(AF) that those who heard it begged that no further word be spoken to them,(AG) 20 because they could not bear what was commanded: “If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned to death.”[c](AH) 21 The sight was so terrifying that Moses said, “I am trembling with fear.”[d](AI)
22 But you have come to Mount Zion,(AJ) to the city(AK) of the living God,(AL) the heavenly Jerusalem.(AM) You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, 23 to the church of the firstborn,(AN) whose names are written in heaven.(AO) You have come to God, the Judge of all,(AP) to the spirits of the righteous made perfect,(AQ) 24 to Jesus the mediator(AR) of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood(AS) that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.(AT)
25 See to it that you do not refuse(AU) him who speaks.(AV) If they did not escape when they refused him who warned(AW) them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven?(AX) 26 At that time his voice shook the earth,(AY) but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.”[e](AZ) 27 The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken(BA)—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken,(BB) let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe,(BC) 29 for our “God is a consuming fire.”[f](BD)

Hebrews 12
King James Version
12 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us 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,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
