Jo-Hibrania 8
1 Gima wasebedo ka watemo wacho en ma: Wan gi Jadolo Maduongʼ mobet piny e bat korachwich mar Kom Duongʼ mar Nyasaye Maduongʼ manie polo,
Now in connexion with what we have been saying the chief point is that we have a High Priest who has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of God's Majesty in the heavens,
2 en ema otiyo e kama ler mar lemo, ma en Hemb Romo madier ma Ruoth ema oguro, to ok dhano.
and ministers in the Holy place and in the true tabernacle which not man, but the Lord pitched.
3 Jadolo Maduongʼ moro amora iyiero mondo ochiw mich kaachiel gi misango, omiyo kata jadolowani bende ne nyaka chiw gimoro.
Every High Priest, however, is appointed to offer both bloodless gifts and sacrifices. Therefore this High Priest also must have some offering to present.
4 Ka dine bed ni pod en e piny ka, to dine ok obedo jadolo, nikech nitie jodolo moromo machiwo mich duto kaka chik dwaro.
If then He were still on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since here there are already those who present the offerings in obedience to the Law,
5 Tich ma jodologo tiyo e kama ler mar lemo en mana kido gi tipo mar tij dolo manie polo. Mano emomiyo ka Musa ne dwaro chako gero Hemb Romo to Nyasaye nosieme kawachone niya, “Ne ni igero gik moko duto machal gi kido mane onyisi ewi got.”
and serve a copy and type of the heavenly things, just as Moses was divinely instructed when about to build the tabernacle. For God said, "See that you make everything in imitation of the pattern shown you on the mountain."
6 To tich ma Yesu oseyudo duongʼ moloyo margino, mana kaka winjruok mokelo, ma en e jathek ber moloyo winjruok machon, nikech en winjruok ma singruok mabeyo moloyo ema guro.
But, as a matter of fact, the ministry which Christ has obtained is all the nobler a ministry, in that He is at the same time the negotiator of a sublimer covenant, based upon sublimer promises.
7 Ka dine bed ni onge gima orem kuom winjruok machon, to winjruok manyien ok dobiro kare.
For if that first Covenant had been free from imperfection, there would have been no attempt to introduce another.
8 To Nyasaye noneno wach moro morem kuomgi mi owacho niya, “Kinde biro, Jehova Nyasaye wacho, ma anatim singruok manyien, gi dhood jo-Israel kod dhood jo-Juda.
For, being dissatisfied with His people, God says, "'There are days coming,' says the Lord, 'When I will establish with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah a new Covenant--
9 Singruokno ok nochal gi mano mane atimo gi kweregi, kane amako lwetgi mi atelonegi kagologi e piny Misri, nikech ne ok giluwo singruokna ma natimo kodgi omiyo an bende ne alokora aweyogi, Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
a Covenant unlike the one which I made with their forefathers on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out from the land of Egypt; for they would not remain faithful to that.' 'So I turned from them,' says the Lord.
10 Ma e singruok ma anatim gi dhood jo-Israel bangʼ ndalogo, Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Abiro keto chikena e pachgi kendo ndikogi e chunygi. Anabed Nyasachgi, kendo ginibed joga.
'But this is the Covenant that I will covenant with the house of Israel after those days,' says the Lord: I will put My laws into their minds and will write them upon their hearts. And I will indeed be their God and they shall be My People.
11 Koro ngʼato ok nochak opuonj jabathe, kata nyawadgi kowacho ni, ‘Ngʼe Jehova Nyasaye,’ nikech giduto giningʼeya kochakore ngʼat matinie moloyo nyaka ngʼat maduongʼie moloyo.
And there shall be no need for them to teach each one his fellow citizen and each one his brother, saying, Know the Lord. For all will know Me from the least of them to the greatest;
12 Nimar anawenegi timbegi maricho, kendo ok anachak apar richogi kendo.”
Because I will be merciful to their wrongdoings, and their sins I will remember no longer.'"
13 Ka Nyasaye luongo singruokni ni “manyien” to mano nyiso ni osemiyo singruok mokwongo odoko machon maonge tich; to kaka oonge tich kendo oti, to obiro lal nono machiegni.
By using the words, "a new Covenant," He has made the first one obsolete; but whatever is decaying and showing signs of old age is not far from disappearing altogether.
