< Hebrews 9 >
1 The first covenant, then, had indeed ordinances of religious service, and a worldly sanctuary.
Azɔ la, nubabla gbãtɔ ɖo ɖoɖowo anyi na subɔsubɔ, eye wotu anyigba dzi kɔkɔeƒe hã.
2 For a tabernacle was prepared, the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the show-bread; which is called the holy place:
Wotu Agbadɔ; le Agbadɔ la ƒe xɔ gbãtɔ me la, akaɖiti, kplɔ̃ kple ŋkumeɖobolo nɔ anyi, eye woyɔ teƒe sia be Kɔkɔeƒe.
3 and after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the holy of holies,
Wotsɔ xɔmetsovɔ tso xɔ sia mee, eye woyɔ agbadɔ si le xɔmetsovɔa megbe la be, Kɔkɔeƒewo ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe.
4 which had the golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on every side with gold, wherein was the golden pot containing the manna, and the rod of Aaron which budded, and the tables of the covenant;
Nu siwo le xɔ sia mee nye Sikavɔsamlekpui kple aɖaka si woyɔna be nubablaɖaka. Wofa sika ɖe aɖaka sia ŋuti kpe ɖo. Le aɖaka sia me la, míakpɔ kpe eve siwo dzi woŋlɔ se ewoawo ɖo, eye sikazɔ si me mana le la hã le aɖaka la me hekpe ɖe Aron ƒe atikplɔ si ƒo se la ŋuti.
5 and over it the cherubs of glory, overshadowing the mercy-seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
Ŋutikɔkɔkɔe ƒe Kerubiwo nɔ nubablaɖaka la tame, eye wokeke woƒe aʋalawo ɖe teƒe si wotsɔa nu vɔ̃ kena le. Ke míate ŋu adzro nya siawo me ayi edzi fifia o.
6 Now these things being thus prepared, into the first tabernacle indeed the priests enter at all times, performing the services;
Ne nu sia nu sɔ gbe vɔ la, nunɔlawo gena ɖe xɔ ŋgɔgbetɔ me ɖaa edzedzi, eye wowɔa mawusubɔsubɔdɔ.
7 but into the second the high-priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself, and for the errors of the people;
Ke nunɔlagã ɖeka koe gena ɖe xɔ emetɔ me, eye wòwɔa esia zi ɖeka ko le ƒe ɖeka me. Ne eyina la, megbea ʋutsɔtsɔ ɖe asi o, ʋu si wòtsɔna sãa vɔe, ɖe eya ŋutɔ kple dukɔ la ƒe nu vɔ̃ siwo wowɔ le manyamanya me la ta.
8 the Holy Spirit clearly showing this, that the way into the sanctuary hath not yet been made manifest, while the first tabernacle is yet standing:
Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe ɖee fia to esia dzi be womeklo nu le mɔ si yi Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la dzi haɖe o, zi ale si Agbadɔ gbãtɔ la gale te nu ko.
9 which is a figure for the present time, in accordance with which are offered both gifts and sacrifices, which have no power as to the conscience to perfect the worshipper,
Esiae nye nufiafia tso fifia ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo ŋuti, esi le asi tɔm edzi be nunana kple vɔsa siwo wowɔna na Mawu la mate ŋu aɖe vɔ̃ ɖa le ame si le subɔsubɔ wɔm la ƒe susu me o.
10 being only ordinances pertaining to the flesh, which in addition to meats and drinks and divers washings are imposed until the time of reformation.
Wonye nuɖuɖu, nunono kple ŋutikɔklɔ ƒe kɔnu vovovowo ko ƒe nya, esiwo nye gotadzesiwo ƒe ɖoɖowo, esiwo nɔ anyi va se ɖe esime ɖoɖo yeyea va.
11 But Christ having appeared, as a high-priest of the good things to come, passing through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, entered once for all into the sanctuary,
Esi Kristo va abe nu nyui siwo li xoxo ƒe nunɔlagã ene la, eto agbadɔ si lolo hede blibo wu la me, agbadɔ si wometsɔ asi tui o alo míagblɔ be menye nuwɔwɔ la ƒe akpa aɖe o.
12 not with the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, and obtained for us everlasting redemption. (aiōnios )
Mege ɖe Kɔkɔeƒewo ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me to gbɔ̃wo kple nyiviwo ƒe ʋu me o, ke boŋ ege ɖe Kɔkɔeƒewo ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me zi ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ hena ɣeyiɣiwo katã to eya ŋutɔ ƒe ʋu me, esia me wòto xɔ ɖeɖe mavɔ na mí. (aiōnios )
13 For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the purifying of the flesh,
Nenye be gbɔ̃wo kple nyitsuwo ƒe ʋu kple nyiviwo ƒe afi si wohlẽ ɖe ame siwo ŋuti mekɔ o la ŋu wɔnɛ be woƒe ŋuti kɔna le gotagome la,
14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who by his everlasting spirit offered himself without spot to God, purify your conscience from dead works, for the worship of the living God! (aiōnios )
ekema Kristo, ame si to Gbɔgbɔ mavɔ la me tsɔ eɖokui na Mawu fɔɖiɖimanɔmee la ƒe ʋu aklɔ míaƒe dzitsinyawo ŋuti tso nu siwo hea ku vanɛ la me wu, ale be míate ŋu asubɔ Mawu gbagbe la. (aiōnios )
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of a new covenant, that, death having taken place for redemption from the transgressions under the first covenant, they who have been called may receive the everlasting inheritance which was promised. (aiōnios )
Le susu sia tae Kristo nye nubabla yeye la ƒe avuléla be ame siwo woyɔ la naxɔ domenyinyi mavɔ la ƒe ŋugbedodo. Azɔ la, eku be wòazu fexexe ɖe ame siwo wɔ nu vɔ̃ le nubabla xoxoa te la ta. (aiōnios )
16 For where there is a testament there must of necessity be implied the death of the testator;
Afi si woŋlɔ domenyigbalẽ da ɖi le la, ehiã be ame si ŋlɔ agbalẽ sia naku hafi,
17 for a testament is of force after men are dead, since it is of no force while the testator is living.
elabena wowɔa domenyigbalẽa me nyawo ŋuti dɔ ne ame si ŋlɔe da ɖi la megava li o. Womewɔa domenyigbalẽ me nyawo ŋuti dɔ ne ame si ŋlɔ agbalẽ la le agbe o.
18 Hence neither was the first covenant ratified without blood.
Esia tae womewɔ nubabla gbãtɔ me nyawo dzi ʋumanɔmee o.
19 For when Moses had spoken every precept according to the Law to all the people, he took the blood of the calves and of the goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,
Esi Mose ɖe gbeƒã se ɖe sia ɖe si le segbalẽa me na dukɔa la, etsɔ nyiviwo kple gbɔ̃tsuwo ƒe ʋu, tsi, ɖetifufu dzĩ kple kakle, eye wòtsɔe hlẽ ʋu ɖe segbalẽ kple dukɔ la katã ŋuti.
20 saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which God enjoined in respect to you.”
Tete wògblɔ be, “Esia nye nubabla la ƒe ʋu, nubabla si Mawu de se na mi be mialé ɖe asi.”
21 The tabernacle also and all the vessels of the service he in like manner sprinkled with the blood.
Nenema ke wòhlẽ ʋu ɖe agbadɔ la kple nu siwo katã ŋuti dɔ wowɔna le subɔsubɔ me la ŋuti.
22 And almost all things are according to the Law purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.
Le nyateƒe me la, se la bia be woakɔ nu sia nu kloe ŋuti kple ʋu, eye ne womekɔ ʋu ɖi o la, nu vɔ̃ tsɔtsɔke manɔ anyi o.
23 It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with sacrifices better than these.
Eya ta ehiã kokoko be woakɔ nu siwo nye dziƒonuwo ƒe vɔvɔli ŋuti kple vɔsa siawo, gake woakɔ dziƒonuawo ŋutɔ ŋu kple vɔsa siwo de ŋgɔ wu esiawo.
24 For Christ did not enter into a sanctuary made with hands, which is only a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God in our behalf.
Elabena Kristo meyi ɖe kɔkɔeƒe si wowɔ kple asi la me esi nye vavãtɔ ƒe vɔvɔli la me o, ke boŋ eyi ɖe dziƒotɔ la ŋutɔ me afi si wòdo ɖe Mawu ŋkume le azɔ ɖe mía teƒe
25 Nor yet to make an offering of himself many times, as the high-priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
Nenema ke meyi ɖe dziƒo be wòatsɔ eɖokui ana zi geɖe abe ale si nunɔlagã la gena ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la ƒe sia ƒe kple ʋu si menye eya ŋutɔ tɔ o la ene o.
26 for then must he have suffered many times since the foundation of the world; but now once in the end of the world he hath appeared, to put away sin by means of his sacrifice. (aiōn )
Ne ele alea la, ele na Kristo be wòatsɔ eɖokui ana fukpekpe zi geɖe tso esime ke woɖo xexea me gɔme anyi, gake azɔ la, eva zi ɖeka hena ɣeyiɣiwo katã le ɣeyiɣi siawo ƒe nuwuwu be wòaɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa to eɖokui tsɔtsɔ sa vɔe me. (aiōn )
27 And as it is appointed to men once to die, but after this the judgment;
Abe ale si woɖoe na ame be wòaku zi ɖeka, eye le esia megbe wòadze ŋgɔ ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ ene la,
28 so also Christ having been once offered up to bear the sins of many, will appear the second time, without sin, for the salvation of those who are waiting for him.
nenema ke wotsɔ Kristo hã sa vɔe zi ɖeka be wòaɖe ame geɖewo ƒe nu vɔ̃ ɖa, eye agava zi evelia menye be wòagava ɖe nu vɔ̃ ɖa o ke boŋ be wòahe ɖeɖe vɛ na ame siwo katã le elalam.
