< Hebrews 8 >
1 Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this. We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
Asɛm a yegyina so kasa no ne sɛ: Yɛwɔ Ɔsɔfopanyin a ɔte Otumfo a ɔwɔ ɔsoro no ahengua no nifa,
2 a servant of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord set up, and not man.
na ɔsom sɛ Ɔsɔfopanyin wɔ Kronkronbea a ɛyɛ nokware ntamadan a ɛnyɛ onipa biara na osii, sɛ Awurade no mu hɔ.
3 For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.
Woyi Ɔsɔfopanyin biara sɛ ɔmfa akyɛde ne mmoa mmɔ Onyankopɔn afɔre. Ɛno nti, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛn Sɔfopanyin nya biribi a ɔde bɛbɔ afɔre.
4 Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according to the Law;
Sɛ Yesu wɔ asase so a, anka ɔrenyɛ ɔsɔfo koraa efisɛ asɔfo wɔ hɔ a wɔde afɔrebɔde ma, sɛnea Yudafo mmara kyerɛ no.
5 who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses was warned when he was about to make the tabernacle, for he said, "See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain."
Nanso dwuma a wodi sɛ asɔfo no yɛ ɔsoro nsusuwso bi kwa. Eyi nti na wɔbɔɔ Mose kɔkɔ bere a ɔpɛɛ sɛ osi ntamadan no, Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Si no sɛnea merekyerɛ wo wɔ bepɔw no so pɛpɛɛpɛ.”
6 But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which on better promises has been given as Law.
Afei de, wɔama Yesu asɔfodwuma a ɛso kyɛn wɔn de no. Yesu yɛ apam a ɛkyɛn so a wogyina bɔhyɛ a ɛkyɛn so so hyɛe no ntamgyinafo.
7 For if that first had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
Sɛ na apam a edi kan no ye a, anka ɛho nhia sɛ wɔbɛyɛ apam a ɛto so abien no.
8 For finding fault with them, he said, "Look, the days are coming," says the Lord, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
Nanso Onyankopɔn huu mfomso wɔ ne nkurɔfo ho bere a ɔkae se, “Nna bi reba, Awurade na ose, a me ne Israelfo ne Yuda abusuakuw bɛhyehyɛ apam foforo.
9 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and I disregarded them," says the Lord.
Ɛrenyɛ sɛ apam a me ne wɔn agyanom yɛɛ no bere a misoo wɔn nsa dii wɔn anim fii Misraim no. Wɔanni apam a me ne wɔn hyehyɛɛ no ho nokware, ɛno nti mantew mʼani anhwɛ wɔn, Awurade na ose.
10 "For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Afei eyi ne apam a me ne Israelfo bɛhyehyɛ wɔ bere a ɛreba no mu, Awurade na ose: Mede me mmara bɛhyɛ wɔn adwene mu na makyerɛw agu wɔn koma mu. Mɛyɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn na wɔayɛ me nkurɔfo.
11 They will not teach each one his fellow citizen, and each one his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' for all will know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.
Wɔn mu biara renka nkyerɛ ne yɔnko anaa ne kuromni se, ‘Hu Awurade!’ Efisɛ wɔn nyinaa behu me fi akumaa so kosi ɔkɛse so.
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins no more."
Mehu wɔn mmɔbɔ wɔ wɔn bɔne ho; na merenkae wɔn bɔne bio.”
13 In that he says, "new," he has made the first old. But that which is becoming old and grows aged is near to vanishing away.
Frɛ a wɔfrɛ saa apam yi “Foforo” no ama nea wɔyɛɛ kan no ayɛ dedaw; na biribiara a enyin yɛ dedaw no nkyɛ yera.
