< Hebrews 10 >

1 For the law, having a shadow of the coming good things, not the image itself of the things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually yearly, perfect those who approach.
Rĩu-rĩ, watho no kĩĩruru kĩa maũndũ mega marĩa magooka, no ti mũhianĩre wa maũndũ marĩa mo mene. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio watho ndũngĩhota gũtũma magongona marĩa marutagwo o mwaka o mwaka mategũtigithĩrio matũme andũ arĩa mookaga kũhooya Ngai magĩrĩre kũna.
2 Since, would they not indeed have ceased being offered, on account of the worshippers once purged having no longer any conscience of sins?
Tondũ korwo nĩ kwahotekire-rĩ, githĩ magongona macio matingĩagĩtigire kũrutagwo? Nĩgũkorwo arĩa maahooyaga nĩmangĩatheretio rĩmwe rĩa kũigana, na matingĩacookire gwĩcuukĩra mehia mao.
3 But in these [there is] a calling to mind of sins yearly.
No rĩrĩ, magongona macio maarĩ ma kũririkanania mehia mwaka o mwaka,
4 For blood of bulls and goats [is] incapable of taking away sins.
tondũ gũtingĩhoteka thakame ya ndegwa na ya mbũri yeherie mehia.
5 Wherefore coming into the world he says, Sacrifice and offering thou willedst not; but thou hast prepared me a body.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Kristũ ookire gũkũ thĩ, oigire atĩrĩ: “Wee ti magongona na maruta weriragĩria, no nĩ mwĩrĩ wahaarĩrĩirie;
6 Thou tookest no pleasure in burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin.
ndwakenirio nĩ maruta ma njino, o na kana maruta ma kũhoroheria mehia.
7 Then I said, Lo, I come (in [the] roll of the book it is written of me) to do, O God, thy will.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ ũyũ haha, o ta ũrĩa ũhoro wakwa wandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo, atĩrĩ: njũkĩte gwĩka wendi waku, Wee Ngai.’”
8 Above, saying Sacrifices and offerings and burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou willedst not, neither tookest pleasure in (which are offered according to the law);
Mbere oigire atĩrĩ, “Magongona na maruta, na maruta ma njino, o na maruta ma kũhoroherio mehia, ti mo weriragĩria, o na kana ũgakenio nĩmo” (o na gũtuĩka watho nĩwaathanĩte marutagwo).
9 then he said, Lo, I come to do thy will. He takes away the first that he may establish the second;
Ningĩ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ũyũ haha, njũkĩte gwĩka wendi waku.” Eeheragia ũhoro wa mbere nĩguo ahaande ũcio wa keerĩ.
10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Na nĩ ũndũ wa kwenda kũu-rĩ, nĩtũtuĩtwo atheru nĩ ũndũ wa igongona rĩa mwĩrĩ wa Jesũ Kristũ rĩrĩa aarutire ihinda rĩmwe rĩa kũigana.
11 And every priest stands daily ministering, and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
Mũthenya o mũthenya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai o wothe arũgamaga na akaruta mawĩra make makoniĩ kĩrĩra kĩa Ngai, agakĩruta magongona o ro macio kaingĩ kaingĩ, no nĩ magongona matangĩhota kweheria mehia.
12 But he, having offered one sacrifice for sins, sat down in perpetuity at [the] right hand of God,
No rĩrĩ, mũthĩnjĩri Ngai ũyũ aarĩkia kũruta igongona rĩmwe rĩa kũigana rĩa kweheria mehia, nĩaikarire thĩ guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ngai.
13 waiting from henceforth until his enemies be set [for the] footstool of his feet.
Kuuma hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩatũũraga etereire o nginya rĩrĩa thũ ciake igaatuuo gaturwa ka makinya make,
14 For by one offering he has perfected in perpetuity the sanctified.
nĩ tondũ na ũndũ wa igongona rĩu rĩmwe, nĩatũmĩte arĩa maratuuo atheru magĩrĩre kũna nginya tene.
15 And the Holy Spirit also bears us witness [of it]; for after what was said:
O nake Roho Mũtheru nĩatumbũragĩra ũhoro ũyũ. O mbere akoiga atĩrĩ:
16 This [is] the covenant which I will establish towards them after those days, saith [the] Lord: Giving my laws into their hearts, I will write them also in their understandings;
“Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ngaarĩkanĩra nao thuutha wa matukũ macio, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani ekuuga. Nĩngekĩra mawatho makwa ngoro-inĩ ciao, na ndĩmaandĩke meciiria-inĩ mao.”
17 and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will never remember any more.
Ningĩ agacooka akoiga atĩrĩ: “Ndigacooka kũririkana mehia mao na ciĩko ciao cia ũremi o rĩ o rĩ.”
18 But where there [is] remission of these, [there is] no longer a sacrifice for sin.
Na rĩrĩ, mehia marĩkia kũrekanĩrwo-rĩ, gũtingĩcooka kũrutwo igongona rĩngĩ rĩa kweheria mehia.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness for entering into the [holy of] holies by the blood of Jesus,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, kuona atĩ tũrĩ na mwĩhoko wa gũtoonya Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno, na ũndũ wa thakame ya Jesũ,
20 the new and living way which he has dedicated for us through the veil, that is, his flesh,
tondũ nĩatũhingũrĩire njĩra njerũ na ĩrĩ muoyo ya kũhĩtũkĩra gĩtambaya-inĩ, nakĩo nĩkĩo mwĩrĩ wake,
21 and [having] a great priest over the house of God,
na kuona atĩ nĩ tũrĩ na mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũnene mũno ũrĩa ũrũgamĩrĩire nyũmba ya Ngai-rĩ,
22 let us approach with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, sprinkled as to our hearts from a wicked conscience, and washed as to our body with pure water.
nĩtũkuhĩrĩrie Ngai tũrĩ na ngoro itarĩ na ũhinga, na tũiyũrĩtwo nĩ wĩtĩkio kũna, nacio ngoro ciitũ iminjaminjĩirio nĩguo tũtherio thamiri ciitũ ciage ũcuuke nayo mĩĩrĩ iitũ ĩthambĩtio na maaĩ matheru.
23 Let us hold fast the confession of the hope unwavering, (for he [is] faithful who has promised; )
Ningĩ nĩtũrũmiei ũhoro wa kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩrĩa tuumbũraga tũtegũthangania, nĩgũkorwo ũrĩa wĩranĩire kĩĩranĩro kĩu nĩ mwĩhokeku.
24 and let us consider one another for provoking to love and good works;
Hamwe na ũguo, nĩtwĩcũũranie ũrĩa tũngĩarahũrana o mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ ũhoro-inĩ wa kwendana na gwĩka ciĩko njega.
25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the custom [is] with some; but encouraging [one another], and by so much the more as ye see the day drawing near.
Na ningĩ tũtigatige kũnganaga hamwe, ta ũrĩa andũ amwe mamenyerete gwĩkaga, no nĩtũmanagĩrĩriei mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ, na makĩria mũno tondũ wa ũrĩa mũkuona atĩ Mũthenya ũcio nĩũrakuhĩrĩria.
26 For where we sin wilfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains any sacrifice for sins,
Tondũ tũngĩthiĩ na mbere na kwĩhia na ũtũrĩka thuutha wa kũmenya ũhoro-ũrĩa-wa-ma-rĩ, gũtirĩ na igongona rĩngĩ rĩa kweheria mehia rĩtigaire,
27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and heat of fire about to devour the adversaries.
tiga o gweterera tũrĩ na guoya ciira o na mwaki ũrĩrĩmbũkaga ũrĩa ũkaaniina thũ cia Ngai.
28 Any one that has disregarded Moses' law dies without mercy on [the testimony of] two or three witnesses:
Mũndũ ũrĩa wothe wareganaga na watho wa Musa ooragagwo atekũiguĩrwo tha na ũndũ wa ũira wa andũ eerĩ kana atatũ.
29 of how much worse punishment, think ye, shall he be judged worthy who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and esteemed the blood of the covenant, whereby he has been sanctified, common, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
Mũgwĩciiria mũndũ aagĩrĩirwo nĩkũherithio mũno makĩria atĩa, ũrĩa ũrangĩrĩirie Mũrũ wa Ngai thĩ, na agatua atĩ thakame ya kĩrĩkanĩro ĩrĩa aatheretio nayo ti theru, na agacooka akaruma Roho ũrĩa ũheanaga wega wa Ngai?
30 For we know him that said, To me [belongs] vengeance; I will recompense, saith the Lord: and again, The Lord shall judge his people.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩtũũĩ ũrĩa woigire atĩrĩ, “Kũrĩhanĩria nĩ gwakwa, na nĩ niĩ ngaarĩhanĩria,” na ningĩ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani nĩwe ũgaatuĩra andũ ake ciira.”
31 [It is] a fearful thing falling into [the] hands of [the] living God.
Nĩ ũndũ wa kũguoyohia mũno mũndũ gũkumbatwo nĩ Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo.
32 But call to mind the earlier days in which, having been enlightened, ye endured much conflict of sufferings;
Ririkanai matukũ ma tene thuutha wanyu kwarĩrwo nĩ ũtheri, ũrĩa mweyũmĩrĩirie mbaara nene rĩrĩa mwanyariiragwo.
33 on the one hand, when ye were made a spectacle both in reproaches and afflictions; and on the other, when ye became partakers with those who were passing through them.
Mahinda mamwe mwathĩĩnagio mbere ya kĩrĩndĩ mũkĩrumagwo; na mahinda mangĩ nĩmwanyiitanagĩra na arĩa meekagwo ũguo.
34 For ye both sympathised with prisoners and accepted with joy the plunder of your goods, knowing that ye have for yourselves a better substance, and an abiding one.
Ningĩ nĩmwaiguagĩra arĩa mohetwo njeera tha, na mũgetĩkagĩra gũtunywo indo cianyu mũkenete, tondũ nĩmwamenyete atĩ inyuĩ mwarĩ na ũtonga ũngĩ mwega makĩria na wa gũtũũra.
35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which has great recompense.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, mũtigate ũũmĩrĩru ũcio wanyu; nĩgũkorwo nĩũkamũrehere uumithio mũnene.
36 For ye have need of endurance in order that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise.
Mwagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkirĩrĩria, nĩguo mwarĩkia gwĩka ũrĩa Ngai endaga, mũkaamũkĩra kĩrĩa eeranĩire.
37 For yet a very little while he that comes will come, and will not delay.
Nĩgũkorwo kahinda kanini gaathira-rĩ, “Ũrĩa ũroka nĩegũka, na ndegũtĩĩra.
38 But the just shall live by faith; and, if he draw back, my soul does not take pleasure in him.
No mũndũ wakwa ũrĩa mũthingu agaatũũra muoyo nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia. Na angĩgacooka na thuutha, ngoro yakwa ndĩgakenio nĩwe.”
39 But we are not drawers back to perdition, but of faith to saving [the] soul.
No ithuĩ tũtirĩ a thiritũ ya arĩa macookaga na thuutha makora, no tũrĩ a thiritũ ya arĩa metĩkagia, makahonokio.
