< Hebrews 10 >

1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
Mmara no yɛ nneɛma pa nsususoɔ a ɛreba, na mmom, ɛnnyɛ nneɛma pa no ankasa. Wɔbɔ afɔdeɛ korɔ no ara afe biara, ɛfiri sɛ saa afɔdeɛ korɔ a wɔbɔ no afeafe rentumi mma nnipa a wɔsom no nnyɛ pɛ da.
2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.
Sɛ nnipa a wɔresom Onyankopɔn no tumi firi wɔn bɔne mu yɛ pɛ a, ɛnneɛ anka wɔrenni bɔne ho fɔ bio, na ne saa enti, afɔrebɔ nyinaa to bɛtwa.
3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.
Deɛ saa afɔrebɔ yi yɛ ne sɛ, ɛkae wɔn wɔn bɔne afe biara.
4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
Anantwie ne mmirekyie mogya rentumi mpepa bɔne.
5 Why when he comes into the world, he says, Sacrifice and offering you would not, but a body have you prepared me:
Esiane saa enti, ɛberɛ a Kristo rebɛba ewiase no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ: “Wommpɛ afɔrebɔ ne ayɛyɛdeɛ nanso woasiesie ɔhonam ama me.
6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you have had no pleasure.
Wʼani nnnye ɔhyeɛ ne bɔne afɔdeɛ anaa afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔ de pepa bɔne ho.
7 Then said I, See, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me, ) to do your will, O God.
Afei, mekaa sɛ: ‘Mewɔ ha rebɛyɛ deɛ wopɛ sɛ meyɛ sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ afa me ho wɔ Mmara nwoma no mu no.’”
8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin you would not, neither had pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
Kane no ɔkaa sɛ, “Wompɛ, na wʼani nso nnnye afɔrebɔ ne ayɛyɛdeɛ a wɔde pepa bɔne ho.” Ɛwom, na Mmara no kyerɛ sɛ wɔnyɛ saa.
9 Then said he, See, I come to do your will, O God. He takes away the first, that he may establish the second.
Na ɔkaa sɛ, “Mewɔ ha rebɛyɛ deɛ wopɛ sɛ meyɛ.” Ɛno enti, Onyankopɔn agu tete afɔrebɔ no nyinaa na ɔde Kristo afɔrebɔ no asi ananmu.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Esiane sɛ Yesu Kristo yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn hwehwɛ sɛ ɔnyɛ no enti, ɔnam ne honam a ɔde bɔɔ afɔdeɛ prɛko maa yɛn no so ama yɛn ho ate afiri bɔne ho.
11 And every priest stands daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
Ɛda biara Yudani ɔsɔfoɔ sɔre yɛ nʼasɔfodwuma na wabɔ afɔdeɛ mpɛn bebree. Nanso, saa afɔdeɛ yi rentumi mpepa bɔne.
12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
Kristo deɛ, ɔbɔɔ bɔne ho afɔdeɛ. Afɔdeɛ a ɛtena daa nyinaa. Na ɛno akyi, ɔtenaa Onyankopɔn nifa so.
13 From now on expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
Ɛhɔ na ɔretwɛn seesei kɔsi sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛma nʼatamfoɔ ayɛ ne nan ntiasoɔ.
14 For by one offering he has perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
Ɔnam afɔrebɔ baako so ama nnebɔneyɛfoɔ ho ate daa nyinaa.
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
Na Honhom Kronkron no nso di adanseɛ. Deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, ɔka sɛ,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
“Yei ne apam a me ne wɔn bɛpam wɔ ɛberɛ a ɛreba no mu. Awurade na ɔseɛ: Mede me mmara bɛhyɛ wɔn akoma mu na matwerɛ agu wɔn adwene mu.”
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
Na afei waka sɛ, “Merenkae wɔn bɔne ne wɔn amumuyɛ bio.”
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
Sɛ wɔde yeinom nyinaa kyɛ a, na afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔ de pepa bɔne no ho nhia bio.
19 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
Anuanom, ɛsiane Yesu wuo no enti, yɛade yɛn ho koraa sɛ yɛbɛkɔ Kronkronbea hɔ.
20 By a new and living way, which he has consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
Ɔnam ɔno ara ne honam so abue ɛkwan foforɔ a nkwa wɔ mu ama yɛn.
21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
Yɛwɔ ɔsɔfoɔ kɛseɛ bi a ɔhwɛ Onyankopɔn fie so.
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
Momma yɛmfa akoma pa ne gyidie a emu yɛ den ntwe mmɛn Onyankopɔn. Ɛfiri sɛ wɔde Yesu mmogya ate yɛn atiboa bɔne ho, na wɔde nsuo a ɛyɛ kronn adware yɛn onipadua ho.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised; )
Momma yɛnnyina gyidie a yɛasɔ mu no mu denden, ɛfiri sɛ, deɛ ɔhyɛɛ yɛn bɔ no yɛ ɔnokwafoɔ.
24 And let us consider one another to provoke to love and to good works:
Momma yɛn ho yɛn ho asɛm nhia yɛn na yɛnnodɔ yɛn ho yɛn ho na yɛnyɛ papa.
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as you see the day approaching.
Mommma yɛnnnyae yɛn ho yɛn ho nhyiamu da sɛdeɛ afoforɔ bi yɛ no. Mmom, momma yɛnhyɛ yɛn ho yɛn ho nkuran dendeenden, ɛfiri sɛ, mo ara mohunu sɛ ɛrenkyɛre na ɛda no aba.
26 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins,
Sɛ moboapa kɔ so yɛ bɔne a, afɔrebɔ biara nni hɔ a ɛbɛpepa mo bɔne, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔada nokorɛ no adi akyerɛ yɛn.
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
Deɛ ɛwɔ hɔ ara ma wɔn a wɔtia Onyankopɔn ne atemmuo ne ogya a ɛbɛba abɛhye wɔn.
28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
Obiara a ɔbu Mose Mmara no so no, sɛ adansefoɔ baanu anaa baasa adansedie enti, wɔbu atɛn tia no a, wɔbɛkum no a wɔrenhunu no mmɔbɔ.
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose you, shall he be thought worthy, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant, with which he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and has done despite to the Spirit of grace?
Na obi a watiatia Onyankopɔn Ba no so, na ɔmmfa Onyankopɔn mogya apam no a ɛgyee no firii bɔne mu no nyɛ hwee anaa deɛ ɔtiatia Honhom a ɔma adom no anim no, ɛdeɛn na ɛbɛto no? Asotwe a onii no bɛnya no nnyɛ adewa.
30 For we know him that has says, Vengeance belongs to me, I will recompense, said the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
Yɛnim sɛ Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, “Me na aweretɔ wɔ me, na me na metua ka,” na ɔno ara na ɔsane kaa sɛ, “Awurade bɛbu ne nkurɔfoɔ atɛn.”
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Onyankopɔn a ɔte ase no nsam amanenya yɛ hu.
32 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great fight of afflictions;
Monkae ahohia a mokɔɔ mu ɛberɛ a mohunuu hann no, momiaa mo ani hunuu ɔko bebree mu amaneɛ.
33 Partly, whilst you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst you became companions of them that were so used.
Ebi ne sɛ, mpɛn bebree wɔyeyɛɛ mo, guu mo anim ase badwam; na ɛtɔ da bi mpo a, na moasiesie mo ho sɛ mobɛka wɔn a wɔrehunu amaneɛ no ho.
34 For you had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that you have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
Mo ne nneduafoɔ daa afiase na wɔfaa mo ahodeɛ nyinaa no mpo, monyaa ho boasetɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, monim sɛ ɛyɛ dɛn ara a mowɔ ade pa bi a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa.
35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which has great recompense of reward.
Mommma mo akoma nntu na moanhwere mo akatua.
36 For you have need of patience, that, after you have done the will of God, you might receive the promise.
Ɛsɛ sɛ moto mo bo ase na moatumi ayɛ Onyankopɔn apɛdeɛ ama mo nsa aka deɛ wɔahyɛ mo ho bɔ no.
37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
Ɛfiri sɛ, Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Ɛrenkyɛre koraa na deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ ɔba no aba; ɔrentwentwɛn.
38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
Na, “Deɛ ɔtene no firi gyidie mu bɛnya nkwa, na sɛ ɔtwe ne ho a, me kra ani rensɔ no.”
39 But we are not of them who draw back to perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
Yɛnnyɛ nnipa a yɛsane yɛn akyi na yɛyera. Mmom, yɛwɔ gyidie na wɔagye yɛn nkwa.
