< Hebrews 1 >
1 God, who, at sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, last of all,
He maha nga wahi, he maha nga huarahi i korero ai te Atua i mua, ara nga poropiti, ki nga matua,
2 In these days hath spoken to us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the world. (aiōn )
I enei ra whakamutunga na tana Tama ana korero ki a tatou, ko tana hoki tera i mea ai mana nga mea katoa, ko tana kaihanga hoki tera o nga ao; (aiōn )
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the figure of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, making purgation of sins, sitteth on the right hand of the majesty on high.
Ko ia te kanapatanga o tona kororia, te tino ahua o tona pumautanga, e whakau nei i nga mea katoa ki te kupu o tona kaha, ka oti i a ia ake ano te horoi o tatou hara, na noho ana ia i te ringa matau o te Nui i runga rawa;
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath inherited a more excellent name than they.
A meinga ana ia kia pai ake i nga anahera, kia pera me te ingoa i riro i a ia he nui atu i to ratou.
5 For to which of the angels hath he said at any time, Thou art my Son, today have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
Ki a wai hoki o nga anahera tana meatanga i mua, Ko koe taku Tama, nonaianei koe i whakatupuria ai e ahau? Me tenei ano, Ko ahau hei Matua ki a ia, ko ia hei Tama ki ahau?
6 And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith: And let all the angels of God adore him.
I tana kawenga mai ano hoki i te whanau matamua ki te ao, ka mea ia, Kia koropiko nga anahera katoa a te Atua ki a ia.
7 And to the angels indeed he saith: He that maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
Ko tana kupu ia mo nga anahera, Meinga ana e ia ana anahera hei wairua, ana kaimahi hei mura ahi.
8 But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of justice is the sceptre of thy kingdom. (aiōn )
Mo te Tama ia, i ki ia, Pumau tonu tou torona, e te Atua, ake, ake: a ko te hepeta o te tika te hepeta o tou kingitanga; (aiōn )
9 Thou hast loved justice, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
I arohaina e koe te tika, i kinongia e koe te hara; no reira nui atu i to ou hoa te whakawahinga a te Atua, a tou Atua, i a koe ki te hinu o te hari.
10 And: Thou in the beginning, O Lord, didst found the earth: and the works of thy hands are the heavens.
Me tenei ano, Nau, e te Ariki, i te timatanga i whakatakoto te whenua; he mahi ano nga rangi na ou ringa:
11 They shall perish, but thou shalt continue: and they shall all grow old as a garment.
Ko era e hemo atu, ko koe ia e mau tonu: ka tawhitotia katoatia hoki era me he kakahu:
12 And as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: but thou art the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.
Ka pokaitia e koe, ano he koheka, ka whakaputaia ketia: ko koe tonu ano ia koe, kahore hoki he mutunga o ou tau.
13 But to which of the angels said he at any time: Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
Ki tehea hoki o nga anahera tana meatanga i mua, Hei toku ringa matau koe noho ai, kia meinga ra ano e ahau ou hoariri hei turanga waewae mou?
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent to minister for them, who shall receive the inheritance of salvation?
He teka ianei he wairua kaimahi ratou katoa, he mea tonotono hei minita, he whakaaro ki te hunga mo ratou nei te ora?
