< Hebrews 7 >
1 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him,
Nítorí Melkisedeki yìí, ọba Salẹmu, àlùfáà Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo, ẹni tí ó pàdé Abrahamu bí ó ti ń padà bọ̀ láti ibi pípa àwọn ọba, tí ó sì súre fún un,
2 to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, by interpretation, King of righteousness, and then also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
ẹni tí Abrahamu sì pín ìdámẹ́wàá ohun gbogbo fún. Ní ọ̀nà èkínní orúkọ rẹ̀ túmọ̀ sí “ọba òdodo”; àti lẹ́yìn náà pẹ̀lú, “ọba Salẹmu,” tí í ṣe “ọba àlàáfíà.”
3 without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like unto the Son of God), abideth a priest continually.
Láìní baba, láìní ìyá, láìní ìtàn ìran, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ọjọ́ tàbí òpin ọjọ́ ayé; ṣùgbọ́n a ṣe é bí Ọmọ Ọlọ́run; ó wà ní àlùfáà títí.
4 Now consider how great this man was, unto whom Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth out of the chief spoils.
Ǹjẹ́ ẹ gbà á rò bí ọkùnrin yìí ti pọ̀ tó, ẹni tí Abrahamu baba ńlá fi ìdámẹ́wàá nínú àwọn àṣàyàn ìkógun fún.
5 And they indeed of the sons of Levi that receive the priest’s office have commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though these have come out of the loins of Abraham:
Àti nítòótọ́ àwọn tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ Lefi, tí o gba oyè àlùfáà, wọ́n ní àṣẹ láti máa gba ìdámẹ́wàá lọ́wọ́ àwọn ènìyàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin, èyí yìí, lọ́wọ́ àwọn arákùnrin wọn, bí ó tilẹ̀ ti jẹ́ pé, wọn ti inú Abrahamu jáde.
6 but he whose genealogy is not counted from them hath taken tithes of Abraham, and hath blessed him that hath the promises.
Ṣùgbọ́n òun ẹni tí a kò tilẹ̀ pìtàn ìran rẹ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ wọn wá, gba ìdámẹ́wàá lọ́wọ́ Abrahamu, ó sì súre fún ẹni tí ó gba ìlérí,
7 But without any dispute the less is blessed of the better.
láìsí ìjiyàn rárá ẹni kò tó ẹni tí à ń súre fún láti ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí ó ju ni.
8 And here men that die receive tithes; but there one, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
Ni apá kan, àwọn ẹni kíkú gba ìdámẹ́wàá; ṣùgbọ́n níbẹ̀, ẹni tí a jẹ́rìí rẹ̀ pé o ń bẹ láààyè nì.
9 And, so to say, through Abraham even Levi, who receiveth tithes, hath paid tithes;
Àti bí a ti lè wí, Lefi pàápàá tí ń gba ìdámẹ́wàá, ti san ìdámẹ́wàá nípasẹ̀ Abrahamu.
10 for he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him.
Nítorí o sá à sì ń bẹ ní inú baba rẹ̀, nígbà ti Melkisedeki pàdé rẹ̀.
11 Now if there was perfection through the Levitical priesthood (for under it hath the people received the law), what further need [was there] that another priest should arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be reckoned after the order of Aaron?
Ǹjẹ́ ìbá ṣe pé pípé ń bẹ nípa oyè àlùfáà Lefi (nítorí pé lábẹ́ rẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn gba òfin), kín ni ó sì tún kù mọ́ tí àlùfáà mìíràn ìbá fi dìde ní títẹ̀lé àpẹẹrẹ tí Melkisedeki, tí a kò si wí pé ní títẹ̀lé àpẹẹrẹ tí Aaroni?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
Nítorí pé bí a ti ń pààrọ̀ iṣẹ́ àlùfáà, a kò sì lè ṣàì máa pààrọ̀ òfin.
13 For he of whom these things are said belongeth to another tribe, from which no man hath given attendance at the altar.
Nítorí ẹni tí à ń sọ̀rọ̀ nǹkan wọ̀nyí nípa rẹ̀ jẹ́ ẹ̀yà mìíràn, láti inú èyí tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò tì jọ́sìn rí níbi pẹpẹ.
14 For it is evident that our Lord hath sprung out of Judah; as to which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priests.
Nítorí ó hàn gbangba pé láti inú ẹ̀yà Juda ni Olúwa wa ti dìde; nípa ẹ̀yà yìí Mose kò sọ ohunkóhun ní ti àwọn àlùfáà.
15 And [what we say] is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there ariseth another priest,
Ó sì tún hàn gbangba ju bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ bí ó ti jẹ pé àlùfáà mìíràn dìde ní àpẹẹrẹ ti Melkisedeki.
16 who hath been made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life:
Èyí tí a fi jẹ́, kì í ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà òfin nípa ti ara, bí kò ṣe nípa agbára ti ìyè àìlópin.
17 for it is witnessed [of him], Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek. (aiōn )
Nítorí a jẹ́rìí pé: “Ìwọ ni àlùfáà títí láé ní ipasẹ̀ ti Melkisedeki.” (aiōn )
18 For there is a disannulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness
Nítorí a mú òfin ìṣáájú kúrò nítorí àìlera àti àìlérè rẹ̀.
19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in thereupon of a better hope, through which we draw nigh unto God.
(Nítorí òfin kò mú ohunkóhun pé), a sì mú ìrètí tí ó dára jù wá nípa èyí tí àwa ń súnmọ́ Ọlọ́run.
20 And inasmuch as [it is] not without the taking of an oath
Níwọ́n bí ó sì ti ṣe pé kì í ṣe ní àìbúra ni. Nítorí àwọn àlùfáà tẹ́lẹ̀ jẹ oyè láìsí ìbúra,
21 (for they indeed have been made priests without an oath; but he with an oath by him that saith of him, The Lord sware and will not repent himself, Thou art a priest for ever); (aiōn )
ṣùgbọ́n ti òun jẹ́ pẹ̀lú ìbúra nígbà tí Ọlọ́run wí fún un pé, “Olúwa búra, kí yóò sì yí padà: ‘Ìwọ ni àlùfáà kan títí láé.’” (aiōn )
22 by so much also hath Jesus become the surety of a better covenant.
Níwọ́n bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jesu ti di onígbọ̀wọ́ májẹ̀mú tí ó dára jù.
23 And they indeed have been made priests many in number, because that by death they are hindered from continuing:
Àti nítòótọ́ àwọn púpọ̀ ní a ti fi jẹ àlùfáà, nítorí wọn kò lè wà títí nítorí ikú.
24 but he, because he abideth for ever, hath his priesthood unchangeable. (aiōn )
Ṣùgbọ́n òun, nítorí tí o wà títí láé, ó ní oyè àlùfáà tí a kò lè rọ̀ ní ipò. (aiōn )
25 Wherefore also he is able to save to the uttermost them that draw near unto God through him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Nítorí náà ó sì le gbà wọ́n là pẹ̀lú títí dé òpin, ẹni tí ó bá tọ Ọlọ́run wá nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀, nítorí tí o ń bẹ láààyè títí láé láti máa bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún wọn.
26 For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
Nítorí pé irú olórí àlùfáà bẹ́ẹ̀ ni o yẹ wá, mímọ́, àìlẹ́gàn, àìléèérí, tí a yà sọ́tọ̀ kúrò láàrín àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, tí a sì gbéga ju àwọn ọ̀run lọ.
27 who needeth not daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for the [sins] of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.
Ẹni tí kò ní láti máa rú ẹbọ lójoojúmọ́, bí àwọn olórí àlùfáà, fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ti ara rẹ̀ náà, àti lẹ́yìn náà fún tí àwọn ènìyàn; nítorí èyí ni tí ó ṣe lẹ́ẹ̀kan ṣoṣo, nígbà tí ó fi ara rẹ̀ rú ẹbọ.
28 For the law appointeth men high priests, having infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was after the law, [appointeth] a Son, perfected for evermore. (aiōn )
Nítorí pé òfin a máa fi àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ní àìlera jẹ olórí àlùfáà; ṣùgbọ́n nípa ọ̀rọ̀ ti ìbúra, tí ó ṣe lẹ́yìn òfin, ó fi ọmọ jẹ; ẹni tí a sọ di pípé títí láé. (aiōn )
