Hebrews 7
1 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, met Abraham, as he was returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him.
I Melkizedeke ‘nio, nimpanjaka’ i Salema, mpisoron’ Añahare Andindimoneñey, ie ty nifanalaka amy Abraàme nimpoly amy nandrebaha’e i mpanjaka rey naho nitata’e,
2 And Abraham divided to him a tenth part of everything. And in translation his name is first, indeed, king of justice, and next also king of Salem, that is, king of peace.
le nitolora’ i Abraàme ty fahafolo’ ze he’ey—ie atao Mpanjakan-kavantañañe hey, ty amy dika i tahina’ey, vaho Mpanjaka’ i Salema ndra Mpanjakam-panintsiñañe;
3 Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life, he is thereby likened to the Son of God, who remains a priest continuously.
ie tsy aman-drae, tsy aman-drene, tsy aman-toñon-droae, tsy aman’ androm-pifotora’e, tsy amam-pitamperan-kaveloñe, fe nampanahafeñe amy Anan’ Añaharey, mitoetse ho mpisoroñe nainai’e tsy modo.
4 Next, consider how great this man is, since the Patriarch Abraham even gave tithes to him from the principal things.
Haraharao heike ty hara’ elahi’ indatiy kanao nitolora’ i Abraàme raentika ty faha-folo’ o kinopa’eo.
5 And indeed, those who are from the sons of Levi, having received the priesthood, hold a commandment to take tithes from the people in accord with the law, that is, from their brothers, even though they also went forth from the loins of Abraham.
Le toe lilie’ i Hake o tarira’ i Levy norizan-ko mpisoroñeo ty hanontoñe am’ondatio, toe amo longo’eo, i faha-foloy, ie boak’ am-pisafoa’ i Abraàme.
6 But this man, whose lineage is not enumerated with them, received tithes from Abraham, and he blessed even the one who held the promises.
Le i tsy toñoneñe aman-droae’ iareoy ty nandrambe ty faha-folo amy Abraàme vaho nitata i nampitamàñey.
7 Yet this is without any contradiction, for what is less should be blessed by what is better.
Tsy kalafo te mitata ty zay ty zoke.
8 And certainly, here, men who receive tithes still die; but there, he bears witness that he lives.
Naho atoy re le rambese’ ondaty mbe hihomakeo i faha-foloy, fe i añey ro taroñeñe te veloñe.
9 And so it may be said that even Levi, who received tithes, was himself a tithe through Abraham.
Aa ie tsaraeñey, i Levy mpandrambe i fahafoloy, ro nandoa ty faha-folo añamy Abraàme,
10 For he was still in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him.
amy t’ie tampisafoan-droae’e ao te nifanalaka amy Melkizedeke.
11 Therefore, if consummation had occurred through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), then what further need would there be for another Priest to rise up according to the order of Melchizedek, one who was not called according to the order of Aaron?
Aa naho nahafonitse ty fisoroña’ i Levy (toe ama’e ty nandrambesa’ ondatio Hake) le inoñe amy zao ty ipaiañe mpisoroñe hitroatse amy famosora’ i Melkizedekey, fa tsy amy famosora’ i Aroney?
12 For since the priesthood has been transferred, it is necessary that the law also be transferred.
Aa kanao vaoeñe i famosorañey, tsy mahay tsy vaoeñe ka t’i Hake.
13 For he about whom these things have been spoken is from another tribe, in which no one attends before the altar.
Amy te foko hafa i tsaraeñey, le tsy ama’e ty nitoron-kitrely.
14 For it is evident that our Lord arose out of Judah, a tribe about which Moses said nothing concerning priests.
Toe fohiñe te tarira’ i Joda i Talèn-tika, fe tsy nisaontsie’ i Mosè fisoroñañe t’i Joda,
15 And yet it is far more evident that, according to the likeness of Melchizedek, there rises up another priest,
miha-malange te mpisoroñe manahak’ i Melkizedeke ty nitroatse,
16 who was made, not according to the law of a carnal commandment, but according to the virtue of an indissoluble life.
ie tsy nanoeñe am-pepè’ i Hake ty am-panoñonan-drae, fa an-kaozaran-kaveloñe tsy modo.
Ty hoe ty nitaroñe’e: Mpisoroñe nainai’e irehe Amy famosora’ i Melkizedekey. (aiōn g165)
18 Certainly, there is a setting aside of the former commandment, because of its weakness and lack of usefulness.
Toe miha-modo i fepetse taoloy ami’ty hamavazoa’e naho ty tsy fahalefea’e,
19 For the law led no one to perfection, yet truly it introduced a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
(amy te tsy eo ty nahatafetere’ i Hake), fe nipoteake ty fitamàn-tsoa, hitotofan-tika aman’ Añahare;
20 Moreover, it is not without an oath. For certainly, the others were made priests without an oath.
mbore nanoeñe am-panta,
21 But this man was made a priest with an oath, by the One who said to him: “The Lord has sworn and he will not repent. You are a priest forever.” (aiōn g165)
(toe tsy fanoeñ’ am-panta o mpisoroñeo, f’itoy ro am-panta, ie nanoeñe ty hoe: Toe nifanta t’Iehovà vaho tsy hihotike: Mpisoroñe nainai’e irehe.) (aiōn g165)
22 By so much, Jesus has been made the sponsor of a better testament.
Antsake t’ie ho fañina soa, amy te mitsoak’ aze t’Iesoa.
23 And certainly, so many of the others became priests because, due to death, they were prohibited from continuing.
Maro i mpisoroñe rezay, ie tsy mijadoñe am-pitoloña’e fa agadon-kavilasy.
Fa itìañe ka, kanao mitoloñe nainai’e, ro am-pisoroñañe tsy ifandimbezañe. (aiōn g165)
25 And for this reason, he is able, continuously, to save those who approach God through him, since he is ever alive to make intercession on our behalf.
Izay ty talim-pahahenefa’e rombake do’e o mitotok’ aman’ Añahare añama’eo, ie veloñe nainai’e hihalaly ho a iareo.
26 For it was fitting that we should have such a High Priest: holy, innocent, undefiled, set apart from sinners, and exalted higher than the heavens.
Mañeva an-tika i Mpisorombey zay: ie masiñe, tsy aman-tahiñe, tsy aman-kila, miavak’ amo aman-kakeoo, vaho nonjoneñe ambone’ o likerañeo.
27 And he has no need, daily, in the manner of other priests, to offer sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for those of the people. For he has done this once, by offering himself.
Ie tsy mipay boak’ andro, manahake o mpisoroñe taoloo, ty hañenga soroñe ho amo tahi’eo hey vaho ho amo hakeo’ ondatio. Fa nanoe’e indraik’ avao ie nañenga i fañòva’ey.
28 For the law appoints men as priests, though they have infirmities. But, by the word of the oath that is after the law, the Son has been perfected for eternity. (aiōn g165)
Oriza’ i Hake t’indaty aman-kila ho mpisorom-bey; fe i tsara am-panta sinokitse tafara’ i Hake ty nañorizañe i Anake nifonireñe ho nainai’ey. (aiōn g165)
