Hebrews 8
1 The main point of what we're saying is this: We have just such a high priest who is seated at the right hand of God, who sits in majesty on his throne in heaven.
Atĩrĩrĩ, ũhoro ũrĩa tũraaria nĩ atĩ: Nĩ tũrĩ na mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai-mũnene, ũrĩa ũikarĩte thĩ guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo gwa gĩtĩ kĩa Ũnene kĩa ũthamaki wa igũrũ,
2 He serves in the sanctuary, the true Tabernacle that was set up by the Lord and not by human beings.
nake nĩ mũtungatĩri wa handũ-harĩa-haamũre, o kũu hema-inĩ ya gũtũnganwo ĩrĩa ya ma ĩrĩa yaakirwo nĩ Mwathani, no ti mũndũ.
3 Since it's the responsibility of every high priest to offer gifts and sacrifices, this high priest must also have something to offer.
Na rĩrĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũnene o wothe aathuuragwo nĩguo arutage iheo na magongona, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio o nake no nginya akorwo arĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũruta.
4 Now if he was here on earth, he wouldn't be a priest at all, because there are already priests to present the offerings that the law requires.
Korwo arĩ o gũkũ thĩ-rĩ, ndangĩrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩgũkorwo nĩ kũrĩ andũ arĩa marutaga iheo iria ciathanĩtwo nĩ watho.
5 The place they serve is a copy, a mere shadow of what is in heaven. That's what God told Moses when he was going to set up the Tabernacle: “Be careful to make everything according to the blueprint you were shown on the mountain.”
Nao matungataga mũhianĩre wa handũ-harĩa-haamũre na kĩĩruru kĩa maũndũ marĩa marĩ igũrũ. Ũndũ ũcio nĩguo watũmire Musa ataarwo hĩndĩ ĩrĩa eeharagĩria gwaka Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ: “Menyerera wone nĩwathondeka indo icio ciothe kũringana na mũhianĩre ũrĩa wonirio ũrĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ.”
6 But Jesus has been given a far better ministry just as he is the one who mediates a far better agreed relationship between us and God, which is based on much better promises.
No rĩrĩ, ũtungata ũrĩa Jesũ aheetwo nĩũkĩrĩte wao, o ta ũrĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa arĩ we mũiguithania wakĩo gĩkĩrĩte kĩrĩa gĩkũrũ, na ningĩ kĩhaandĩtwo na ciĩranĩro njega makĩria.
7 If that first agreement had been perfect, then a second wouldn't have been necessary.
Nĩgũkorwo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa mbere gĩtangĩarĩ na mahĩtia, gũtingĩagĩire bata wa gwetha kĩngĩ gĩa keerĩ.
8 Pointing out their failings, God told his people, “Pay attention, says the Lord, because the days are coming when I will make a new agreement with the people of Israel and Judah.
No Ngai nĩoonire andũ marĩ na mahĩtia, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Matukũ nĩmarooka, rĩrĩa ngaarĩkanĩra kĩrĩkanĩro kĩerũ na nyũmba ya Isiraeli, o hamwe na nyũmba ya Juda, nĩguo Mwathani ekuuga.
9 This will not be like the agreement I made with their forefsathers when I led them by the hand out of the land of Egypt. For they didn't keep their part of the agreed relationship, so I gave up on them, says the Lord.
Nakĩo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩu gĩtikahaana ta kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ndaarĩkanĩire na maithe mao ma tene rĩrĩa ndaamanyiitire na guoko, ngĩmatongoria, ngĩmaruta bũrũri wa Misiri, na tondũ matiigana gũikara marĩ ehokeku harĩ kĩrĩkanĩro gĩakwa, na niĩ ngĩmahutatĩra, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani ekuuga.
10 The relationship I promise to the house of Israel is this: After that time, says the Lord, I will place my laws inside them, and write them in their minds. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ngaarĩkanĩra na nyũmba ya Isiraeli ihinda rĩu rĩathira, nĩguo Mwathani ekuuga. Nĩngekĩra watho wakwa meciiria-inĩ mao, na ningĩ ndĩwaandĩke ngoro-inĩ ciao. Na niĩ ngaatuĩka Ngai wao, nao matuĩke andũ akwa.
11 No one will need to teach their neighbor, and no one will need to teach anyone in their family, telling them, ‘You ought to know the Lord.’ For everyone will know me, from the smallest to the greatest.
Gũtigacooka gũkorwo na mũndũ ũkũruta ũrĩa ũngĩ, kana mũndũ arute mũrũ wa ithe amwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Menyana na Mwathani,’ tondũ andũ othe nĩmagakorwo maamenyete, kuuma ũrĩa mũnini mũno wao nginya ũrĩa mũnene.
12 I will be merciful when they do wrong, and I will forget about their sins.”
Nĩgũkorwo nĩngamarekera waganu wao, na ndigacooka kũririkana mehia mao.”
13 By saying, “A new agreed relationship,” he makes the first agreement out-of-date. The one that's old and worn out has almost disappeared.
Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa ekwaria ũhoro wa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩerũ-rĩ, nĩgũtua aatuire kĩrĩa kĩa mbere gĩkũrũ; na kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrakũra-rĩ, gĩtuĩkaga gĩa gũthira, gĩkabuĩria o biũ.
