< 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.
So gv Melkijedek vnam nyi angv si Salem gv dvbv ngv okv Kaiyachoknv Pwknvyarnv gv nyibuv. Abraham gv dvbv apiha nyimak mvyayala aakur rikulo, Melkijedek ninyia kaarwksuto okv boktalwkji toku,
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.
Abraham nyimak pakulo vdwgo yikungyira naakum pvkudw mvnwng lokv vring lokv akin gonyi ninyia jitoku. (Melkijedek gv aminv mintubv minchonam angv “Darwkchongchongnv Dvbv” vla minamv; ogulvgavbolo nw Salem gv dvbv bv rinam lvgabv nw gv aminv “Sarsopoyonv Dvbv” vla minta namv)
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.
Melkijedek gv abuv vmalo anv ngv vmalo nw gv abuapa vdwa yvvnyika lvkgapla vvpvnamgo kaama; ninyia bvnglin nama vmalo ninyigv sinam a lvkgap pvvnamgo kaama. Nw Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo aingnv; nw dvbvsingtambv nyibubv rila doobwngnv.
4 Next, consider how great this man is, since the Patriarch Abraham even gave tithes to him from the principal things.
Vbvrikunamv, nonu kaatoka, nw achialvbv kainvgo. Ngonugv yunam abuapa Abraham nw gv nyimaklo paanam ogumvnwng loka vring lokv akin gonyi ninyia jitoku.
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.
Okv Lebi gv husi nyibubv rinv vdwa, bunuka Abraham gv Husi bv rikujeka, Pvbv lo bunugv Israel nyi vdwgvlo vring lokv akonyi naakum yadubv minto.
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.
Melkijedek Lebi gvlokv linvma, vbvritola nw Pwknvyarnv gvlokv milvkunam paanv Abraham gvlokv vring lokv akonyi naakum yatoku, okv ninyia boktalwkji toku.
7 Yet this is without any contradiction, for what is less should be blessed by what is better.
Boktalwkji nama paanv amam svnga, jinv angv kaiyadunv, ho lvkwngbv ogu mvngngum sego kaama.
8 And certainly, here, men who receive tithes still die; but there, he bears witness that he lives.
Darwknv Kitaplo minam apiabv, nyibu vdwa minrinyi yvvbunudw vring loka akin gonyi naanv vdwv sijikunv vdwv; vbvritola Melkijedek gvbv minrinyi vring loka akin gonyi naanv si turnv angv.
9 And so it may be said that even Levi, who received tithes, was himself a tithe through Abraham.
Okv, vbvka minlado, Abraham vring lokv akin a jitoku, Lebi (Ho gv husi vdwv vring loka akin gonyi naakumyanv) jita toku.
10 For he was still in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him.
Vdwlo Abraham Melkijedeknyi kaarwksitokudw Lebinyi ho bvngtv madvto, nw ninyigv abuapa Abraham gv ayak lo doomwngto.
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?
Lebi vdwgv nyibu buli lokv Israel nyi vdwa Pvbv nga jitoku. Vjak, Lebi vdw gvlokv nyibubv rila rinamlo jvjvbv rvbwng nvgobolo, hv Aaron gvbv mimabv, Pvbv gv lvlam ha manv Melkijedek gv buli lokv angusinv nvgwngnv nyibu go kaatamla daklwk dubv dinchi madunvpv.
12 For since the priesthood has been transferred, it is necessary that the law also be transferred.
Ogulvgavbolo vdwlo nyibu buli a mvkupmv rikudw, hoka Pvbv loka mvkupmv dukubv ridu kunv.
13 For he about whom these things have been spoken is from another tribe, in which no one attends before the altar.
Okv ngonugv Ahtu, vla minggvdvnam si, aku sinv haalung lokv, okv ninyigv haalung lokv vdwloka yvvka nyibubv rikama.
14 For it is evident that our Lord arose out of Judah, a tribe about which Moses said nothing concerning priests.
Vkvlvgabv mvnwngngv alvyaungbv chindu, ninyia Juda gv haalung lokv bvnglin kunamv; okv vdwlo Moses nyibugv lvkwng nga minkubvdw nw so gv haalung sum minpa mato.
15 And yet it is far more evident that, according to the likeness of Melchizedek, there rises up another priest,
Melkijedek aingnv kvvbi nyibu go aalwk kunamv, gaamv maataryajebv minpok yaya duku.
16 who was made, not according to the law of a carnal commandment, but according to the virtue of an indissoluble life.
Ninyia nyibubv mvtoku, hv nyia nyi gv pvbv lokv mvma, vbvritola dvbvsvngtambv turnam gv jwkrw lokv mvpvkunv.
17 For he testifies: “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)
Vkvlvga Darwknv kitaplo mindu, “Melkijedek gv nyibu buli lokv no dvbvsvngtambv nyibubv rire.” (aiōn g165)
18 Certainly, there is a setting aside of the former commandment, because of its weakness and lack of usefulness.
Vbvrikunamv, kvvlo gv pvbv nga kayutvkula, ogulvgavbolo hv lvvkumanam bv rito okv anyung kaaku matoku.
19 For the law led no one to perfection, yet truly it introduced a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
Vkvlvga Moses gv pvbv ngv ogumvnwng nga rvbwngching bv mvla gvmato. Okv vjak ngonugv Pwknvyarnvnyi nvchi ladukubv alvyanv mvngtin ha jipvku.
20 Moreover, it is not without an oath. For certainly, the others were made priests without an oath.
Okv ho gv aolo hoka Pwknvyarnv gv milv kunam go doodvdo. Dvbv ha nyibubv mvri hoka svkvnv milvnam go kaamato.
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)
Vbvritola, vdwlo Pwknvyarnv ninyia svbv milvto, “Ahtu dinchinv milv kunam go mintoku okv um naakur kumare: ‘No dvbvsingtambv nyibubv rire,’” vbv milvla mingkunam lokv Jisu nyibubv ritoku. (aiōn g165)
22 By so much, Jesus has been made the sponsor of a better testament.
Vbvrikunamv, so gv aku sunam si Jisunyi alvyanv milv kunamgv minchar kunam gubv mvtoku.
23 And certainly, so many of the others became priests because, due to death, they were prohibited from continuing.
Hoka akusunam akodv doodvdo: hoka kvvbi nyibu vkv achialvgo doonyato, bunu sinya lakula kudungkua nga ribwng nyuma toku.
24 But this man, because he continues forever, has an everlasting priesthood. (aiōn g165)
Vbvritola Jisu dvbvsingtambv torbwngdu, okv nwgv nyibubv rila kudungkua nga yvvnyika jisik sima. (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.
Okv vkvlvgabv nw rilanv, vjakka okv alu gv dwkia yvvbunudw nwgv lokv Pwknvyarnv gvlo aadunv nw ho vdwgv lvgabv Pwknvyarnvnyi kumbv jire ogulvgavbolo nw dvbvsvngtambv turbwng nvngvku.
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.
Vbvrikunamv, Jisu nw ngonugv dinchi nama kaaji kunv Butvyachok hv. Nw darwknv; nw rigakpanam go kaama vmalo ninyi gvlo rimur kaama; nw rimurnv vdw gvlokv akusubv rikunv okv nyido mookugv aolo naacha kunam angv.
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.
Nw kvvbi Butvyachok apiabv rimanv; nw alu gv dwkia nw gv rimur lvgabv erinpeelwk rinchola okv ho kochingbv nyi vdwgv rimur haka erinpeelwk ria jila rikwng svgo kaama. Nw vdwlo atubongv erinpeelwk subvdw lvkinlo dvbvsingtam gv lvgabv erinpeelwkla ria jitoku.
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)
Moses gv Pvbv lokv nyi Butvyachok bv ribwk manv nga dartoku; vbvritola, Pwknvyarnv gv milv ngv um kaiyago milv kunam lokv, Pvbv gv kochingbv aanv milv kunam lokv Kuunyilo nga dartoku, ninyia dvbvsingtam gv lvgabv rilak nvgobv mvtoku. (aiōn g165)
