< Hebrews 7 >

1 For this Melchi-sedec was King of Salem, the Priest of the most high God, who met Abraham, as he returned from the slaughter of the Kings, and blessed him:
Melkizedek a bụ eze Salem, bụrụkwa onye nchụaja Chineke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu. Ọ zutere Ebraham mgbe o si na mmeri o meriri ọtụtụ ndị eze ahụ na-alọghachi, gọziekwa ya.
2 To whom also Abraham gaue the tithe of all things: who first is by interpretation King of righteousnes: after that, he is also King of Salem, that is, King of peace,
Ebraham nyekwara ya otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri nke ihe niile. Ihe mbụ aha ya pụtara bụ, “eze ezi omume,” ọzọkwa bụ “eze nke Salem,” nke pụtara, “eze udo.”
3 Without father, without mother, without kinred, and hath neither beginning of his dayes, neither ende of life: but is likened vnto the Sonne of God, and continueth a Priest for euer.
O nweghị nna, o nwekwaghị nne, nke ọ na-enwe agbụrụ. O nweghị mmalite nke ụbọchị a mụrụ ya, maọbụ ọgwụgwụ ndụ, e mere ya dị ka Ọkpara Chineke. Ọ na-anọgide bụrụ onye nchụaja ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
4 Nowe consider how great this man was, vnto whome euen the Patriarke Abraham gaue the tithe of the spoyles.
Leenụ otu o siri bụrụ onye dị ukwuu, ọ bụladị Ebraham bụ nna nna anyị nyere ya otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri site nʼihe ọ kwatara nʼagha!
5 For verely they which are the childre of Leui, which receiue the office of the Priesthode, haue a commandement to take, according to the Law, tithes of the people (that is, of their bethren) though they came out of ye loynes of Abraham.
Ma otu ọ dị, iwu kwadoro ka ụmụ Livayị bụ ndị ghọrọ ndị nchụaja na-anakọta otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri site nʼaka ndị ọzọ, ya bụ, site nʼaka ndị ụmụnna ha ndị Izrel, nʼagbanyeghị na ụmụnna ha ndị ahụ bụkwa ụmụ ụmụ Ebraham.
6 But he whose kindred is not couted among them, receiued tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
Ma nwoke a bụ onye na-esiteghị nʼagbụrụ naara otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri site nʼaka Ebraham ma gọziekwa ya bụ onye ahụ nke natara nkwa ahụ.
7 And without all contradiction the lesse is blessed of the greater.
O nweghị ịrụrịta ụka ọbụla dị ya, na onye dị ukwuu na-agọzi onye dị nta.
8 And here men that die, receiue tithes: but there he receiueth them, of whome it is witnessed, that he liueth.
Nʼotu aka ahụ, ndị na-anata otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri bụ mmadụ na-anwụ anwụ, ma nʼaka nke ọzọ, onye na-anata ya bụ onye ahụ e kwupụtara na ọ na-adị ndụ.
9 And to say as the thing is, Leui also which receiueth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
Mmadụ pụrụ isi na Livayị onye natara otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri kwụrụ otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri nke ya site nʼaka Ebraham.
10 For hee was yet in the loynes of his father Abraham, when Melchi-sedec met him.
Nʼihi na mgbe Melkizedek zutere ya, ọ ka nọ nʼafọ nna nna ya.
11 If therefore perfection had bene by the Priesthoode of the Leuites (for vnder it the Lawe was established to the people) what needed it furthermore, that another Priest should rise after the order of Melchi-sedec, and not to be called after the order of Aaron?
Ọ bụrụ na a pụrụ ime ka mmadụ zuo oke site nʼọnọdụ ndị nchụaja ndị Livayị, nʼihi na ọ bụ site nʼiwu e nyere ndị mmadụ ka e ji hiwee ọnọdụ ndị nchụaja. Olee uru ọ bara ka onye nchụaja ọzọ bịa, dị ka usoro Melkizedek si dị, na-abụghị dị ka usoro nke Erọn?
12 For if the Priesthood be changed, then of necessitie must there be a change of the Lawe.
Ebe a gbanwere ọnọdụ ndị nchụaja, nʼotu aka ahụ, a ghaghị ịgbanwekwa iwu.
13 For hee of whome these things are spoken, perteineth vnto another tribe, whereof no man serued at the altar.
Nʼihi na onye ahụ e kwuru ihe ndị a banyere ya sitere nʼagbụrụ ọzọ, nke ọ dịbeghị onye ọbụla sitere na ya rụrụ ọrụ dị nʼebe ịchụ aja.
14 For it is euident, that our Lord sprung out of Iuda, concerning the which tribe Moses spake nothing, touching the Priesthood.
Ọ bụ ihe a mara nke ọma na Onyenwe anyị si nʼagbụrụ Juda pụta, Mosis nʼonwe ya akpọtụghị agbụrụ ahụ aha mgbe ọ na-ekwu banyere ndị nchụaja.
15 And it is yet a more euident thing, because that after the similitude of Melchi-sedec, there is risen vp another Priest,
E meela ka a ghọta okwu anyị na-ekwu nke ọma, mgbe onye nchụaja ọzọ yiri Melkizedek pụtara.
16 Which is not made Priest after the Law of the carnal commandement, but after the power of the endlesse life.
Onye ghọrọ onye nchụaja ma ọ bụghị site nʼusoro iwu nke ọmụmụ ndị nchụaja, kama site nʼike dị na ndụ nke na-apụghị ịla nʼiyi.
17 For hee testifieth thus, Thou art a Priest for euer, after the order of Melchi-sedec. (aiōn g165)
Nʼihi na-agbara akaebe banyere ya, sị, “Gị onwe gị, bụ onye nchụaja ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, dị ka usoro Melkizedek si dị.” (aiōn g165)
18 For the commandement that went afore, is disanulled, because of the weakenes thereof, and vnprofitablenes.
Nʼotu aka ahụ, e wezugala usoro iwu ochie ahụ nʼihi adịghị ike ya na nʼihi abaghị uru ya
19 For the Law made nothing perfite, but the bringing in of a better hope made perfite, whereby we drawe neere vnto God.
(nʼihi na iwu ahụ emeghị ka ihe ọbụla zuo oke), ma nʼaka nke ọzọ, e webatala olileanya ka mma, bụ nke anyị na-esite na ya bịaruo Chineke nso.
20 And for as much as it is not without an othe (for these are made Priestes without an othe:
Ma e ji ịṅụ iyi mee ka ọnọdụ onyeisi nchụaja a guzosie ike. O nweghị iyi a ṅụrụ mgbe ndị ọzọ ghọrọ ndị nchụaja.
21 But this is made with an othe by him that said vnto him, The Lord hath sworne, and will not repent, Thou art a Priest for euer, after the order of Melchi-sedec) (aiōn g165)
Ma onye nke a ghọrọ onye nchụaja site nʼịṅụ iyi mgbe onye ahụ gwara ya, “Onyenwe anyị aṅụọla iyi, ọ gaghị agbanwe obi ya, ‘Ị bụ onye nchụaja ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.’” (aiōn g165)
22 By so much is Iesus made a suretie of a better Testament.
Nʼihi nke a, Jisọs aghọọla onye na-akwagide ọgbụgba ndụ ka mma.
23 And among them many were made Priests, because they were not suffered to endure, by the reason of death.
Ihe ọzọ, ndị nchụaja nke ochie ahụ dị ọtụtụ nʼọnụọgụgụ nʼihi na ọnwụ gbochiri ha ịga nʼihu nʼọrụ ha.
24 But this man, because hee endureth euer, hath a Priesthood, which cannot passe from one to another. (aiōn g165)
Ya mere, ebe ọ na-adị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ọ na-abụkwa onyeisi nchụaja mgbe niile. (aiōn g165)
25 Wherefore, hee is able also perfectly to saue them that come vnto God by him, seeing he euer liueth, to make intercession for them.
Ya mere o nwere ike ịzọpụta ruo mgbe niile ndị ahụ na-abịakwute Chineke site na ya, nʼihi na ọ na-adị ndụ ruo mgbe niile ịrịọ arịrịọ nʼihi ha.
26 For such an hie Priest it became vs to haue, which is holy, harmelesse, vndefiled, separate from sinners, and made hier then the heauens:
Ya mere, ọ dị mkpa na anyị ga-enwe onyeisi nchụaja dị otu a, bụ onye dị nsọ, na onye na-enweghị ntụpọ, na onye dị ọcha, na onye e kewapụrụ site nʼebe ndị mmehie nọ, ma buliekwa ya elu karịa nʼeluigwe.
27 Which needeth not daily as those hie Priests to offer vp sacrifice, first for his owne sinnes, and then for the peoples: for that did he once, when he offered vp himselfe.
Ọ dịghị ka ndịisi nchụaja ndị ọzọ, nʼihi na ọ dịghị mkpa na ọ ga-achụ aja kwa ụbọchị, nʼihi mmehie nke aka ya, na nʼihi mmehie nke ndị ọzọ. Naanị otu aja nke dịrị mgbe niile ka ọ chụrụ maka mmehie mgbe o weere onwe ya nye dị ka aja.
28 For the Law maketh men hie Priestes, which haue infirmitie: but the word of the othe that was since the Lawe, maketh the Sonne, who is consecrated for euermore. (aiōn g165)
Nʼihi na iwu na-ahọpụta dị ka ndịisi nchụaja ndị mmadụ na-adịghị ike. Ma okwu nke ịṅụ iyi ahụ, nke na-eso iwu nʼazụ, họpụtara Ọkpara, onye e mere ka o zuo oke ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. (aiōn g165)
