Hebru 7
1 Melkhizedek teh Salem siangpahrang, ka lentoe poung Cathut e vaihma lah ao. Abraham ni taran a tuk teh tânae hoi bout a ban nah Melkhizedek ni a dawn teh yawhawi a poe.
For this Melchisedec--king of Salem, Priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him,
2 Abraham ni taran kutnaw koehoi a thokhai e, hnopainaw pueng pung hra pung touh Melkhizedek koe a poe. Apasuekpoung lah Melkhizedek tie teh ‘lannae Siangpahrang tinae doeh. Apâhni lah Salem siangpahrang lah ao dawkvah ‘lungmawngnae siangpahrang tinae lah ao.
to whom Abraham imparted even a tenth of all; being, indeed, by interpretation, first, king of righteousness, and next, also, king of Salem; which, by interpretation, is king of peace--
3 Ahni teh a manu a na pa tawn hoeh, a miphun tawn hoeh, a khenae hoi a duenae hai tawn hoeh. Ahni teh Cathut e capa patetlah ao teh, a yungyoe vaihma lah ao.
was without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginnings of days, nor end of life: but, being made like the Son of God, he remains a priest continually.
4 Mintoe Abraham ni a hmu e hnopainaw pung hra pung touh a poe teh hete tami teh banghloimaw a lentoe tie hah pouk awh haw.
Now, consider how great this priest was, to whom even Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth of the spoils.
5 Vaihma lah rawi e Levih canaw teh Abraham e miphun lah ao. A hmaunawnghanaw kut dawk hoi kâpoelawk patetlah pung hra pung touh coe thainae a tawn awh. Ahnimanaw teh Abraham koehoi ka tho e a hmaunawnghanaw lah ao awh.
For they, indeed, of the sons of Levi, who received the priesthood, have a commandment to tithe people according to the law; that is, their brethren, although they have come forth from the loins of Abraham:
6 Hatei, ahnimae miphun lah kaawm hoeh e hote bawi ni Abraham koehoi pung hra pung touh a coe teh, lawkkamnae ka coe e Abraham hah yawhawinae a poe.
but he, who did not derive his pedigree from their progenitors, tithed Abraham, and blessed the holder of the promises.
7 Kacue niyah kanaw yawhawinae a poe e hah oun hanelah awm hoeh.
Now, beyond all contradiction, the less is blessed by the greater.
8 Hothloilah, atuvah kadout thai e taminaw ni pung hra pung touh a coe awh. Hatei, hatnae tueng dawk teh a hring telah kapanuekkhaikung ni pung hra pung touh a coe e lah ao.
Besides, here, indeed, men, who die, take tithes; but there one, of whom it is testified that he lives.
9 Hahoi, pung hra pung touh ka coe e Levih haiyah Abraham koehoi pung hra pung touh a poe toe telah ti thai awh.
And, as one may say, even Levi, who receives tithes, was tithed in Abraham:
10 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Melkhizedek ni Abraham a kâhmo navah Levih teh a na pa e atak thung vah ao rah.
for he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
11 Hahoi, Levih miphun koehoi ka tho e vaihma phun hoi kâkuen lah taminaw ni kâlawk hah coe awh dawkvah, hote phun lahoi kuepcingnae koe phat thai pawiteh, Aron patetlah e laipalah, Melkhizedek patetlah e a tho hane bangkongmaw a panki rah.
Moreover, if, indeed, perfection were through the Levitical priesthood, (for with it the people received the law, ) what further need was there that another priest should arise, according to the order of Melchisedec, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?
12 Vaihma miphun kâthung pawiteh kâlawk hai kâthung laipalah awm thai hoeh.
Wherefore, the priesthood being changed, there is, of necessity, a change also of law.
13 Bangkongtetpawiteh, dei tangcoung e ni a takhi e Bawipa teh, thuengnae thaw ka tawk boihoeh rae miphun hoi a kâkuet
For he to whom these things are said, was of a different tribe, of which no one gave attendance at the altar.
14 Bangkongtetpawiteh, maimae Bawipa teh Judah miphun dawk hoi a tâco tie teh a kamceng. Hote miphun teh vaihma hoi a kâkuet telah Mosi ni kam touh hai dei boihoeh.
For it is very plain that our Lord had sprung from Judah, in relation to which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.
15 Hahoi, Melkhizedek patetlah alouke vaihma teh, yo awm toung pawiteh, vaihma miphun a kâthung toe tie hoe a kamceng.
Moreover, it is still more plain that, according to the similitude of Melchisedec,
16 Hote vaihma teh kâpoelawk lahoi rawi e tho hoeh, yungyoe hringnae bahu lahoi rawi e doeh.
another priest arises, who is made, not according to the law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an endless life.
17 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh Melkhizedek patetlah yungyoe e vaihma lah na o, telah a kampangkhai. (aiōn g165)
For he testifies, "Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedec." (aiōn g165)
18 Kâlawk teh a thayoun teh kuepnae a poe thai hoeh dawkvah, takhoe e lah ao toe.
Here then, there is a disannulling of the preceding commandment, because of its weakness and unprofitableness--
19 Bangkongtetpawiteh, kâlawk ni apipatet hai lannae koe phat sak thai hoeh. Hatei atuvah hoe ka talue e ngaihawinae a tho dawkvah, maimouh teh hote ngaihawinae lahoi Cathut koe rek hnai awh.
(for the law made no one perfect) --and the superinduction of a better hope, by which we draw near to God.
20 Ahnimouh teh thoebonae lah awm laipalah vaihma lah ao awh.
Moreover, inasmuch as not without an oath--
21 Jisuh teh thoebonae awm laipalah vaihma lah awm hoeh. Cathut ni nang teh Melkhizedek patetlah yungyoe vaihma lah na o telah thoe a bo teh, a lung bout a kâthung hoeh e patetlah Jisuh ni thoebonae lahoi vaihma lah ao e patetlah, (aiōn g165)
(for they, indeed, were make priests without an oath, but he, with an oath, by him who said to him, "The Lord has sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedec,") (aiōn g165)
22 hoe kahawi e lawkkam kacaksakkung lah ao.
by so much was Jesus made the surety of a better institution.
23 Ahnimouh haiyah a due awh teh, thaw pou a tawk thai awh hoeh dawkvah, tami moikapap vaihma lah ao awh.
Besides, many, indeed, are made priests, because by death they are hindered from continuing:
but he, because he lives for ever, has a priesthood which does not pass from him. (aiōn g165)
25 Hatdawkvah, apipatet hai thoseh, Jisuh lahoi Cathut koe kahnai e hah a rungngang thai katang. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Bawipa teh ahnimouh hane pahrennae hei hanlah a yungyoe poe a hring.
Hence, also, he is for able to save them who come to God through him; always living to make intercession for them.
26 Hot patetlah e Vaihma Kacue teh a thoung teh khinnae tawn hoeh, tamikayonnaw hoi kamyawng hoeh. Kalvannaw pueng hlak a rasanghnawn dawkvah maimouh han lah a kamcu.
Now such a High Priest became us; who, being holy, harmless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens,
27 Alouke vaihma kacuenaw teh ama hane yon thuengnae thoseh, taminaw hane yon thuengnae thoseh, hnintangkuem a sak e patetlah hote Bawipa teh ama hanlah yon thuengnae sak ngai hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, amahoima vai touh hoi thuengnae a sak teh hote thaw teh a cum toe.
has not, like the high priests, need, from time to time, to offer sacrifices, first for his own sins, then for those of the people; for this latter he did once, when he offered himself up.
28 Kâlawk niteh yon ka tawn e tami hah vaihma kacue lah a rawi. Hatei, kâlawk hnukkhu vah ka tho e thoebo lawk niteh a yungyoe kakuep e Capa doeh a rawi. (aiōn g165)
For the law constitutes men high priests, who have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, constituted the Son, who is perfected for evermore. (aiōn g165)
