Hebrews 3
1 Therefore, holy brothers, comrades of a heavenly calling, fix your thoughts then upon Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession.
Kale abooluganda abatukuvu, Katonda b’ayise, mulowoozenga ku Yesu, Omutume Omukulu era Kabona Asinga Obukulu, gwe twatula.
2 How faithful he was to the God who appointed him! For while Moses also was faithful in all God’s house,
Yali mwesigwa eri oyo eyamulonda, era nga Musa bwe yali omwesigwa mu nnyumba ya Katonda yonna.
3 Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has built a house has higher honor than the house itself.
Kubanga ng’omuzimbi bw’aweebwa ekitiibwa okusinga ennyumba gy’azimbye, bw’atyo Yesu wa kitiibwa okusinga Musa.
4 For every house has its builder; but he who built the universe is God.
Kubanga buli nnyumba wabaawo agizimba, naye Katonda ye y’azimba buli kintu.
5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, bearing testimony to a witness about to be 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 in his own house; and we are that house, if we retain the cheerful courage and pride of our hope firm 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 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says. If you hear God’s voice today,
Noolwekyo nga Mwoyo Mutukuvu bw’agamba nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye,
8 Continue not to harden your hearts as in the Provocation, On the day of temptation in the wilderness,
temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe, nga bali bwe baajeema, ku lunaku lwe bagezesaako Katonda mu ddungu.
9 When your forefathers tried my forbearance And saw my deeds for forty years.
Bajjajjammwe bangezesa, ne balaba bye nakola mu myaka amakumi ana.
10 For this reason I was sore displeased with that generation, And said, "They are always wandering in their hearts; They have never learned 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, "They shall never enter into my rest."
Kyennava ndayira nga nsunguwadde nti, ‘Tebaliyingira mu kiwummulo kyange.’”
12 See to it, brothers, that there shall never be in any one of you an evil and unbelieving heart, manifesting itself in apostasy from the living God.
Mwekuume abooluganda, omutima omubi ogw’obutakkiriza gulemenga kuba mu muntu yenna ku mmwe, ne gubaggya ku Katonda omulamu.
13 On the contrary, encourage each other daily, so long as there is a "Today," so that no one of you is hindered 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 become comrades of the Christ, if we hold our first title deed firm until the very end.
Olw’okubanga tussa kimu mu Kristo, tunywereze ddala obwesige bwaffe bwe twatandika nabwo, era tubunywereze ddala okutuusa ku nkomerero.
15 In the words of Scripture, Today, if you hear his voice, Do not continue to harden your hearts as at the Provocation.
Kyogerwako nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe nga bwe mwakola bwe mwajeema.”
16 For who were they that heard and yet provoked him? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under the leadership of Moses?
Be baani abaawulira, naye ne bajeema? Si abo bonna abaava mu Misiri ne Musa?
17 And with whom was he grieved for forty years? Was it not with those who had sinned, and whose dead bodies 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 never enter into his rest, if not to those who had proved faithless?
Era baani abo Katonda be yalayirira obutayingira mu kiwummulo kye? Si abo abataagonda?
19 So you see that it was through unbelief that they were not able to enter in.
Era tulaba nga baalemwa okuyingira olw’obutakkiriza bwabwe.
