Hebrews 3
1 WHEREFORE, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, contemplate the apostle and high-priest whom ye confess, Jesus Christ;
Kale abooluganda abatukuvu, Katonda b’ayise, mulowoozenga ku Yesu, Omutume Omukulu era Kabona Asinga Obukulu, gwe twatula.
2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, as Moses also was in all his house.
Yali mwesigwa eri oyo eyamulonda, era nga Musa bwe yali omwesigwa mu nnyumba ya Katonda yonna.
3 For this personage hath been counted worthy of higher glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who built it, hath greater honour than the house.
Kubanga ng’omuzimbi bw’aweebwa ekitiibwa okusinga ennyumba gy’azimbye, bw’atyo Yesu wa kitiibwa okusinga Musa.
4 For every house is built by some person; but he who is the architect of all things is God.
Kubanga buli nnyumba wabaawo agizimba, naye Katonda ye y’azimba buli kintu.
5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all that house of his as a servant, to bear testimony of the things which should be after spoken;
Musa yali muweereza mwesigwa mu nnyumba ya Katonda yonna, eyayogera eby’obunnabbi ku bintu ebyali bigenda okwogerwa mu biro eby’omu maaso.
6 but Christ as a son over his own house: whose house are we, if we hold firmly the confidence and glorying of hope stedfast unto the end.
Naye ate Kristo ye Mwana omwesigwa, akulira ennyumba ya Katonda; ate ffe tuli nnyumba y’oyo bwe tunywera ne tuba bavumu ne twenyumiririza mu ssuubi lye tunywezezza.
7 Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
Noolwekyo nga Mwoyo Mutukuvu bw’agamba nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye,
8 harden not your hearts, as in that bitter provocation, at the day of the temptation in the wilderness;
temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe, nga bali bwe baajeema, ku lunaku lwe bagezesaako Katonda mu ddungu.
9 when your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works during forty years.
Bajjajjammwe bangezesa, ne balaba bye nakola mu myaka amakumi ana.
10 Wherefore I was provoked against that generation, and said, They are always deluded in heart, and they have not known my ways:
Kyennava nsunguwalira omulembe ogwo, ne njogera nti bulijjo baba bakyamu mu mitima gyabwe, era tebamanyi makubo gange.
11 so I swore in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.
Kyennava ndayira nga nsunguwadde nti, ‘Tebaliyingira mu kiwummulo kyange.’”
12 Take heed, brethren, that there be not in any one of you a wicked heart of infidelity, evident in departure from the living God:
Mwekuume abooluganda, omutima omubi ogw’obutakkiriza gulemenga kuba mu muntu yenna ku mmwe, ne gubaggya ku Katonda omulamu.
13 but exhort one another daily, whilst to-day remains, that no one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
Mubuuliraganenga mwekka na mwekka bulijjo ng’ekiseera kikyaliwo, waleme okubaawo n’omu ku mmwe akakanyazibwa obulimba bw’ekibi.
14 For we are partakers with Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm unto the end;
Olw’okubanga tussa kimu mu Kristo, tunywereze ddala obwesige bwaffe bwe twatandika nabwo, era tubunywereze ddala okutuusa ku nkomerero.
15 while it is said, To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts as in the provocation.
Kyogerwako nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe nga bwe mwakola bwe mwajeema.”
16 For some, though they had heard, provoked him; yet not all who came out of Egypt by Moses.
Be baani abaawulira, naye ne bajeema? Si abo bonna abaava mu Misiri ne Musa?
17 But against whom was he incensed forty years? Was it not against those who had sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness?
Era baani be yanyiigira okumala emyaka amakumi ana? Si abo abaayonoona ne bafiira mu ddungu?
18 And to whom did he swear that they should not enter into his rest, but to those who did not believe?
Era baani abo Katonda be yalayirira obutayingira mu kiwummulo kye? Si abo abataagonda?
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
Era tulaba nga baalemwa okuyingira olw’obutakkiriza bwabwe.
