Hebrews 3
1 Therefore, holy brothers, who share in the heavenly calling, set your focus on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess.
Kale abooluganda abatukuvu, Katonda b’ayise, mulowoozenga ku Yesu, Omutume Omukulu era Kabona Asinga Obukulu, gwe twatula.
2 He was faithful to the One who appointed Him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house.
Yali mwesigwa eri oyo eyamulonda, era nga Musa bwe yali omwesigwa mu nnyumba ya Katonda yonna.
3 For Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself.
Kubanga ng’omuzimbi bw’aweebwa ekitiibwa okusinga ennyumba gy’azimbye, bw’atyo Yesu wa kitiibwa okusinga Musa.
4 And every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.
Kubanga buli nnyumba wabaawo agizimba, naye Katonda ye y’azimba buli kintu.
5 Now Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house, testifying to what would be spoken later.
Musa yali muweereza mwesigwa mu nnyumba ya Katonda yonna, eyayogera eby’obunnabbi ku bintu ebyali bigenda okwogerwa mu biro eby’omu maaso.
6 But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are His house, if we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope of which we boast.
Naye ate Kristo ye Mwana omwesigwa, akulira ennyumba ya Katonda; ate ffe tuli nnyumba y’oyo bwe tunywera ne tuba bavumu ne twenyumiririza mu ssuubi lye tunywezezza.
7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear His voice,
Noolwekyo nga Mwoyo Mutukuvu bw’agamba nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye,
8 do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness,
temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe, nga bali bwe baajeema, ku lunaku lwe bagezesaako Katonda mu ddungu.
9 where your fathers tested and tried Me, and for forty years saw My works.
Bajjajjammwe bangezesa, ne balaba bye nakola mu myaka amakumi ana.
10 Therefore I was angry with that generation, and I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known My ways.’
Kyennava nsunguwalira omulembe ogwo, ne njogera nti bulijjo baba bakyamu mu mitima gyabwe, era tebamanyi makubo gange.
11 So I swore on oath in My anger, ‘They shall never enter My rest.’”
Kyennava ndayira nga nsunguwadde nti, ‘Tebaliyingira mu kiwummulo kyange.’”
12 See to it, brothers, that none of you has a wicked heart of unbelief that turns away from the living God.
Mwekuume abooluganda, omutima omubi ogw’obutakkiriza gulemenga kuba mu muntu yenna ku mmwe, ne gubaggya ku Katonda omulamu.
13 But exhort one another daily, as long as it is called today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.
Mubuuliraganenga mwekka na mwekka bulijjo ng’ekiseera kikyaliwo, waleme okubaawo n’omu ku mmwe akakanyazibwa obulimba bw’ekibi.
14 We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly to the end the assurance we had at first.
Olw’okubanga tussa kimu mu Kristo, tunywereze ddala obwesige bwaffe bwe twatandika nabwo, era tubunywereze ddala okutuusa ku nkomerero.
15 As it has been said: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion.”
Kyogerwako nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe nga bwe mwakola bwe mwajeema.”
16 For who were the ones who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?
Be baani abaawulira, naye ne bajeema? Si abo bonna abaava mu Misiri ne Musa?
17 And with whom was God angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
Era baani be yanyiigira okumala emyaka amakumi ana? Si abo abaayonoona ne bafiira mu ddungu?
18 And to whom did He swear that they would never enter His rest? Was it not to those who disobeyed?
Era baani abo Katonda be yalayirira obutayingira mu kiwummulo kye? Si abo abataagonda?
19 So we see that it was because of their unbelief that they were unable to enter.
Era tulaba nga baalemwa okuyingira olw’obutakkiriza bwabwe.
