Ŵaebulania 1
1 Kalakala ko Akunnungu ŵakungulwiche ni achambuje ŵetu kakajinji ni matala gamajinji kwa litala lya ŵakulondola ŵakwe.
God, who, of old, at many times and in many ways, spoke to our ancestors, by the Prophets,
2 Nambo moŵa ga mbesi gano aŵechete nowe kwa litala lya Mwanagwe, jwapegwilwe ni Akunnungu indu yose iŵe yakwe, nombe kwa litala lya jwelejo ŵachigumbile chilambo chose. (aiōn g165)
has in these latter days spoken to us by the Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. (aiōn g165)
3 Ŵelewo ali ung'alime wa ukulu wa Akunnungu ni chisau chisyenesyene nti yaali Akunnungu nsyene, indu yose ikwendelechela kupagwa mpela yaitite kuŵa pachilambo malinga ni ukombole wa liloŵe lyao lyalili ni machili. Nombewo paŵamasile kwaswejesya ŵandu mu sambi syao, ŵatemi peuto pakuchimbichikwa kunlyo kwa Akunnungu Ŵakulu.
For he is the radiance of the Glory of God and the very expression of his Being, upholding all creation by the power of his word; and, when he had made an expiation for the sins of men, he ‘took his seat at the right hand’ of God’s Majesty on high,
4 Mwana ali jwankulu kwapunda achikatumetume ŵa kwinani mpela ila ilitite liina lyapegwile ni Akunnungu lili liina lyekulu kugapunda meena gao.
having shown himself as much greater than the angels as the Name that he has inherited surpasses theirs.
5 Pakuŵa Akunnungu nganansalila namose jumo jwa achikatumetume ŵakwe ŵa kwinani katema kakali kose kuti, “Mmwejo ndi Mwanangu lelo une ndili Atati ŵenu.” Ni sooni nganansalila katumetume jwa kwinani jwalijose kuti, “Une chime Atati kwa jwelejo nombejo chaŵe Mwanangu.”
For to which of the angels did God ever say — ‘Thou art my Son; this day I have become thy Father’? or again — ‘I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son’?
6 Ni sooni Akunnungu paŵantumile mu chilambo mwanache jwannume jwakwitiwo ŵatite, “Achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵa Akunnungu wose akuŵajilwa kwapopelela.”
And again, when God brought the First-born into the world, he said — ‘Let all the angels of God bow down before him.’
7 Nambo nkati achikatumetume ŵa kwinani wo ŵatite, “Akunnungu akwatenda achikatumetume ŵakwe ŵa kwinani kuŵa nti mbungo ni ŵakutumichila ŵakwe ŵa kwinani nti malamba ga mooto.”
Speaking of the angels, he said — ‘He makes the winds his angels And the fiery flames his servants’;
8 Nambo nkati Mwana, Akunnungu akuti, “Umwenye wenu, alakwe Akunnungu chiutame moŵa gose pangali mbesi ni moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Nkwalongosya ŵandu ŵenu kwa kwanonyelesya Akunnungu. (aiōn g165)
while of the Son he said — ‘God is thy throne for ever and ever; The sceptre of his Kingdom is the sceptre of Justice; (aiōn g165)
9 Mwainonyele aila yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu ni mwachichimile chigongomalo. Lyeleli lili ligongo Akunnungu, Akunnungu ŵenu ansagwile mmwe ni kumpakasya mauta ga sangalala ni kunchimbichisya kwapunda achinjenu wose.”
Thou lovest righteousness and hatest iniquity; Therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the festal oil more abundantly than thy peers.’
10 Sooni Akunnungu ŵatite, “Alakwe Ambuje, kuundanda mwachigumbile chilambo, ni kwinani gali masengo ga makono genu.
Again — ‘Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of thy hands.
11 Yeleyo chiipite, nambo alakwe chinsigale moŵa gose. Nombe yose chiichiwisala mpela nguo.
They shall perish, but thou remainest; As a garment they shall all grow old;
12 Chimpindanye mpela mwinjilo, nombe chiigalauchikwe nti nguo. Nambo alakwe nli julajula ni umi wenu ngaumala.”
As a mantle thou wilt fold them up, And as a garment they shall be changed, But thou art the same, and thy years shall know no end.’
13 Akunnungu nganansalila namose jumo jwa achikatumetume ŵakwe ŵa kwinani pa katema kakalikose kuti, “Ntameje kundyo kwangu, mpaka pachinaaŵiche ŵammagongo ŵenu paasi pa sajo syenu.”
To which of the angels has God ever said — ‘Sit thou at my right hand Until I put thy enemies as a stool for thy feet’?
14 Ana achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ali ŵaani? Ŵele ali mbumu ŵakwatumichila Akunnungu, akulajiswa kwakamuchisya ŵandu ŵachachipochela ukulupusyo.
Are not all the angels spirits in the service of God, sent out to minister for the sake of those who are destined to obtain Salvation?
