< Hebrews 9 >
1 Now even the first [covenant] had ordinances of divine service, and its sanctuary, [a sanctuary] of this world.
Na apam a edi kan no wɔ mmara a wɔnam so som. Saa ara nso na na wɔwɔ baabi a nnipa asiesie a wɔsom.
2 For there was a tabernacle prepared, the first, wherein [were] the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the Holy place.
Wosii ntamadan a wɔatwa mu abien. Ɔdan a edi kan no a wɔfrɛ no Kronkronbea no na kaneadua, ɔpon ne brodo a wɔatew ho a wɔde ma Onyankopɔn no wɔ.
3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holy of holies;
Ntwamu no akyi a wɔfrɛ hɔ Kronkron mu Kronkron no,
4 having a golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein [was] a golden pot holding the manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;
na sika aduhuamyɛfo afɔremuka ne Apam Adaka a wɔde sika adura ho nyinaa wɔ. Saa adaka no mu na na sika pɔre a mana ne Aaron pema a ɛfefɛwee ne apam bopon no wɔ.
5 and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat; of which things we cannot now speak severally.
Adaka no so hɔ nso na anuonyam Kerubim a wɔatrɛw wɔn ntaban mu akata adaka no nkataso no so si. Nanso yɛrentumi nka nneɛma yi ho asɛm nkɔ akyiri mprempren.
6 Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services;
Saa na wɔahyehyɛ nneɛma no. Da biara na asɔfo no kɔ ɔdan a edi kan no mu kɔyɛ wɔn adwuma;
7 but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself, and for the errors of the people:
nanso na Ɔsɔfopanyin no nko ara na ɔwɔ ho kwan sɛ ɔkɔ Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ pɛnkoro pɛ afe biara. Ɔde mogya a ɔde bɔ ɔno ankasa ne ne nkurɔfo mfomso ho afɔre ka ne ho kɔ.
8 the Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holy place hath not yet been made manifest, while as the first tabernacle is yet standing;
Honhom Kronkron no nam saa ɔkwan yi so kyerɛ yɛn sɛ, wonnya mmuee ɔkwan a wɔde kɔ Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ wɔ bere a Ntamadan no ne mu nneɛma da so wɔ hɔ.
9 which [is] a parable for the time [now] present; according to which are offered both gifts and sacrifices that cannot, as touching the conscience, make the worshipper perfect,
Ɛyɛ mfonitwa ma nnɛ bere yi. Ɛkyerɛ sɛ akyɛde ne mmoa a na wɔde bɔ afɔre ma Onyankopɔn no rentumi mma wɔn a wɔsom no koma mu nyɛ kronkron.
10 [being] only (with meats and drinks and divers washings) carnal ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.
Wɔde nnuan, anonne ne nneɛma ahorow a wɔde dwira wɔn ho na edi dwuma no. Eyi yɛ ɔhonam fam nhyehyɛe a ɛyɛ adwuma kosi bere a nhyehyɛe foforo bɛba.
11 But Christ having come a high priest of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,
Nanso Kristo aba dedaw sɛ Ɔsɔfopanyin ama nneɛma pa a yɛwɔ dedaw yi. Ntamadan a ɔsom wɔ mu no so, na edi mu kyɛn dedaw no. Ɛnyɛ nnipa na wɔyɛe. Afei nso emfi adebɔ yi mu.
12 nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption. (aiōnios )
Bere a Kristo kɔɔ ntamadan no mu a ɔkɔɔ Kronkronbea hɔ pɛnkoro no, wamfa mmirekyi ne anantwi mogya na ɛkɔbɔɔ afɔre. Mmom, ɔno ara de ne mogya na ɛbɔɔ afɔre de gyee nkwa a enni awiei maa yɛn. (aiōnios )
13 For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling them that have been defiled, sanctify unto the cleanness of the flesh:
Na sɛ mmirekyi ne anantwinini mogya ne anantwibere nsõ a wɔde dwira wɔn a wɔn ho agu fi tew wɔn ho kɔ ɔhonam ahofi mu a,
14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish unto God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (aiōnios )
mpɛn ahe na Kristo a ɔnam Honhom so, de ne ho bɔɔ afɔre a ɛho nni dɛm maa Onyankopɔn no mogya rentew mo ho mfi nnwuma bɔne mu, na monkɔsom Onyankopɔn a ɔte ase no ana? (aiōnios )
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of a new covenant, that a death having taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, they that have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. (aiōnios )
Eyi nti na Kristo yɛ apam foforo no ntamgyinafo sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wɔn a Onyankopɔn afrɛ wɔn no benya nhyira a enni awiei sɛnea Onyankopɔn ahyɛ bɔ no. Eyi aba saa, efisɛ owu bi asi a egye nnipa fi wɔn bɔne a wɔyɛɛ bere a na wɔwɔ apam a edi kan no mu no mu. (aiōnios )
16 For where a testament is, there must of necessity be the death of him that made it.
Sɛ nsamansew bi wɔ hɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ wotumi kyerɛ sɛ onipa a ɔhyɛɛ saa nsamansew no awu.
17 For a testament is of force where there hath been death: for doth it ever avail while he that made it liveth?
Sɛ onipa a ɔhyɛɛ nsamansew no te ase a, saa nsamansew no nka hwee. Bere a wawu no na ɛka biribi.
18 Wherefore even the first [covenant] hath not been dedicated without blood.
Ɛno nti na apam a edi kan no wɔnam mogya so na wɔhyɛɛ no den no.
19 For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses unto all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself, and all the people,
Nea edi kan no, Mose kaa mmaransɛm no nyinaa, sɛnea ɛwɔ mmara no mu no kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Nantwi mma mogya ne nsu ne kuntu kɔkɔɔ ne sommɛ na ɔde petee nwoma mmobɔwee no ne nnipa no nyinaa so
20 saying, This is the blood of the covenant which God commanded to you-ward.
kae se, “Eyi ne mogya a ɛsɔw apam a Onyankopɔn ahyɛ mo sɛ munni so no ano.”
21 Moreover the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry he sprinkled in like manner with the blood.
Saa ara na Mose petee mogya guu ntamadan no ne nneɛma a wɔde som no nyinaa so ne no.
22 And according to the law, I may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.
Nokware, sɛnea mmara no kyerɛ no, ɛkame ayɛ sɛ mogya na etumi tew ade nyinaa ho, na saa ara nso na gye sɛ mogya ahwie agu ansa na bɔnefakyɛ aba.
23 It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Saa ɔkwan yi ara so na wɔnam ma biribiara a ɛyɛ ɔsoro nhwɛsode no ho tew. Nanso, ɔsoro nneɛma no ankasa de, afɔre a eye kyɛn eyinom na wɔde tew ho.
24 For Christ entered not into a holy place made with hands, like in pattern to the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear before the face of God for us:
Efisɛ Kristo ankɔ kronkronbea a nnipa de wɔn nsa na ayɛ a ɛyɛ ade kann ho nhwɛso no hɔ. Ɔkɔɔ ɔsoro ankasa na osi yɛn anan mu wɔ Onyankopɔn anim hɔ.
25 nor yet that he should offer himself often; as the high priest entereth into the holy place year by year with blood not his own;
Afe biara Yudafo Sɔfopanyin de aboa mogya kɔ Kronkronbea hɔ. Nanso Kristo amfa ne ho amma mpɛn bebree saa.
26 else must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once at the end of the ages hath he been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. (aiōn )
Sɛ ɔyɛɛ saa a, anka efi adebɔ mfiase no, obehu amane mpɛn bebree. Mmom, waba prɛko a nneɛma nyinaa reba awiei, na ɔnam afɔre a ɔde ne ho bɔe no so apepa bɔne. (aiōn )
27 And inasmuch as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this [cometh] judgment;
Ɛsɛ sɛ obiara wu prɛko pɛ, na ɛno akyi Onyankopɔn abu no atɛn.
28 so Christ also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, shall appear a second time, apart from sin, to them that wait for him, unto salvation.
Saa ara na wɔde Kristo nso bɔɔ afɔre baako pɛ de gyee dodow no ara wɔ wɔn bɔne mu. Ɔbɛba ne mprenu so a ɔremmegye nnebɔneyɛfo na mmom, ɔbɛba abegye wɔn a wɔretwɛn no no nkwa.
