Hebrews 8
1 Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this: we have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
Ekigambo ekikulu ekiri mu bye twogedde kye kino nti, Tulina Kabona Asinga Obukulu, atudde ku mukono ogwa ddyo, ogw’entebe ya Katonda ey’obwakabaka mu ggulu,
2 a servant of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord pitched, not man.
omuweereza w’ebitukuvu, era ow’eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu ey’amazima, etaazimbibwa bantu wabula Mukama.
3 For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.
Kubanga Kabona Asinga Obukulu yenna alondebwa olw’omulimu ogw’okuwaayo ebirabo ne ssaddaaka, bwe kityo n’oyo kyamugwanira okuba n’ekintu ky’awaayo.
4 For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law,
Singa yali ku nsi, teyandibadde kabona kubanga waliwo bakabona abawaayo ebirabo ng’amateeka bwe galagira.
5 who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, for he said, “See, you shall make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.”
Kye bakola kifaananako bufaananyi era kisiikirize ky’ebyo ebikolebwa mu ggulu. Musa kyeyava alabulwa, bwe yali ng’anaatera okumaliriza weema, Mukama n’amugamba nti, “Bw’oba ng’ozimba, goberera entegeka yonna eyakulagirwa ku lusozi.”
6 But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which on better promises has been given as law.
Naye kaakano omulimu Yesu gwe yaweebwa, gusinga nnyo ogwa bali obukulu, kubanga n’endagaano gy’alimu ng’omutabaganya y’esinga obulungi, n’ebisuubizo kw’enyweredde, bye bisinga obulungi.
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
Singa endagaano eyasooka teyaliiko kyakunenyezebwa, tewandibaddewo kyetaagisa yaakubiri.
8 For finding fault with them, he said, “Behold, the days are coming”, says the Lord, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
Kubanga bw’abanenya ayogera nti, “Laba ennaku zijja,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “ndiragaana endagaano empya n’ennyumba ya Isirayiri, awamu n’ennyumba ya Yuda.
9 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
Endagaano eno empya terifaanana n’eri gye nalagaana ne bajjajjaabwe lwe nabakwata ku mukono okubaggya mu nsi y’e Misiri. Olw’okubanga tebaagoberera ndagaano yange, nange ssaabassaako mwoyo,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
10 “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says the Lord: “I will put my laws into their mind; I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
“Eno y’endagaano gye ndiragaana n’ennyumba ya Isirayiri, oluvannyuma lw’ennaku ezo, bw’ayogera Mukama. Ndissa amateeka gange mu birowoozo byabwe era ndiwandiika amateeka gange ku mitima gyabwe, nange nnaabeeranga Katonda waabwe, nabo banaabeeranga bantu bange.
11 They will not teach every man his fellow citizen and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all will know me, from their least to their greatest.
Era tewaliba nate muntu ayigiriza munne oba muliraanwa we, oba muganda we ng’agamba nti, ‘Manya Mukama,’ Kubanga okuva ku muto okutuuka ku mukulu bonna balimmanya.
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.”
Era ndibasaasira, n’ebibi byabwe siribijjukira nate.”
13 In that he says, “A new covenant”, he has made the first obsolete. But that which is becoming obsolete and grows aged is near to vanishing away.
Katonda bw’ayogera ku ndagaano empya, olwo ng’andibizza ey’edda; n’eyo gy’adibizza n’okukaddiwa n’ekaddiwa, eriggwaawo.
