< Hebrews 3 >

1 Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus;
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 also was Moses in his house.
Yali mwesigwa eri oyo eyamulonda, era nga Musa bwe yali omwesigwa mu nnyumba ya Katonda yonna.
3 For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, just as he who built the house has more honor 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 someone; but he who built all things is God.
Kubanga buli nnyumba wabaawo agizimba, naye Katonda ye y’azimba buli kintu.
5 Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward 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 is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope.
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, even as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will hear his voice,
Noolwekyo nga Mwoyo Mutukuvu bw’agamba nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye,
8 do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation, like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe, nga bali bwe baajeema, ku lunaku lwe bagezesaako Katonda mu ddungu.
9 where your fathers tested me and challenged me, and saw my works for forty years.
Bajjajjammwe bangezesa, ne balaba bye nakola mu myaka amakumi ana.
10 Therefore I was displeased with this generation, and said, 'They always err in their heart, but they did not know my ways;'
Kyennava nsunguwalira omulembe ogwo, ne njogera nti bulijjo baba bakyamu mu mitima gyabwe, era tebamanyi makubo gange.
11 as I swore in my wrath, 'They will not enter into my rest.'"
Kyennava ndayira nga nsunguwadde nti, ‘Tebaliyingira mu kiwummulo kyange.’”
12 Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away 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 day by day, so long as it is called "today;" lest any 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 have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to 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, "Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion."
Kyogerwako nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe nga bwe mwakola bwe mwajeema.”
16 For who, when they heard, rebelled? No, did not all those who came out of Egypt by Moses?
Be baani abaawulira, naye ne bajeema? Si abo bonna abaava mu Misiri ne Musa?
17 With whom was he displeased forty years? Was not it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
Era baani be yanyiigira okumala emyaka amakumi ana? Si abo abaayonoona ne bafiira mu ddungu?
18 To whom did he swear that they would not enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
Era baani abo Katonda be yalayirira obutayingira mu kiwummulo kye? Si abo abataagonda?
19 We see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
Era tulaba nga baalemwa okuyingira olw’obutakkiriza bwabwe.
