Hebrews 10

1 Just like a shadow vaguely represents the thing that it is a shadow of, the laws that God [gave Moses] only poorly represent [MET] the good things that were to come later. Those laws were not all the good things themselves that God has promised. So, by offering the same kinds of sacrifices every year, people [PRS] who approach God can never become (perfect/all that God intends them to be).

Kay ang balaod anino lamang sa mga maayong butang nga moabot, dili kadtong matuod sa ilang kaugalingon. Ang balaod dili gayod makahingpit niadtong magpaduol ngadto sa Dios pinaagi sa mao ra nga mga halad nga kanunay ginahalad sa mga pari tuig-tuig.

2 If God had removed the guilt for having sinned of those who brought the sacrifices, they would not feel that they were still guilty. So they would certainly have stopped offering those sacrifices! [RHQ]

O dili ba kadtong mga halad gipahunong na sa paghalad? Sa ingon niana nga kahimtang ang mga magsisimba, nga nahinloan sa makausa, wala na gayoy kahibalo mahitungod sa mga sala.

3 But rather, the fact that they offer those sacrifices each year reminds them that they are still guilty for their sins.

Apan niadto nga mga halad adunay usa ka pahinumdom sa mga sala nga nahimo tuig-tuig.

4 The principle is that blood of animals such as bulls or goats can never remove the guilt of those who have sinned.

Kay dili mahimo nga ang dugo sa mga toro nga baka ug mga kanding makakuha sa mga sala.

5 So, as [Christ] was coming into the world, he spoke [to his Father about offering himself as a sacrifice for people’s sin. The Psalmist wrote this that Christ said]: It is not sacrifices and offerings that you [(sg)] have wanted, but you have prepared for me a body [to serve you].

Sa dihang miangi si Cristo sa kalibotan, siya miingon, “Wala ka magtinguha sa mga halad o mga gasa. Hinuon, giandaman mo ako ug usa ka lawas alang kanako.

6 Animals that are completely burned up as sacrifices have not pleased you, and [other sacrifices that atone] for those who have sinned have not pleased you.

Wala ka mahimuot sa tibuok sinunog nga mga gasa o mga halad alang sa sala.

7 Then [because of this], I said, “My God, (listen!/here I am!) I have come [here] in order to do what you want me [to do], [just like] has been written {as they have written} about me in the Scriptures.”

Unya miingon ako, “Tan-awa, ania ako aron sa pagbuhat sa imong kabubut-on, Dios, sama sa nahisulat mahitungod kanako sa mga linukot nga basahon.”

8 First, [Christ] said, “It is not sacrifices and offerings and animals that [the priests] have completely burned up and other [offerings to atone for] those who have sinned that you have really wanted. They have not pleased you.” [Christ said that even though] those things were offered {they offered all those things} according to the laws [God gave Moses]!

Ug miingon siya sama sa gipahayag sa taas, “Wala ka nangandoy sa mga halad, mga gasa, o tibuok sinunog nga mga halad alang sa sala, ni nahimuot ka kanila”— ang mga halad nga gihalad sumala sa balaod.

9 Then, [concerning his offering himself as a sacrifice to atone for people’s sin], he said, “Listen! I have come [here] to do what you want me [to do]!” In that way Christ got rid of the first [way of atoning for sin], in order to establish the second [way of atoning for] sin.

Unya miingon siya, “Tan-awa, ania ako aron sa pagbuhat sa imong kabubut-on.” Gilahi niya ang naunang buluhaton aron matukod ang ikaduha.

10 Because of Jesus Christ [doing what God] wanted him to do, we have been dedicated to {[he] has set us apart for} God by his offering his own body only once [as a sacrifice, a sacrifice that will not need to be repeated].

Sa ikaduha nga buluhaton, gihalad na kita sa Dios pinaagi sa iyang kabubut-on pinaagi sa paghalad sa lawas ni Jesu-Cristo sa makausa ra alang sa tanan.

11 As every [Jewish] priest stands daily [in front of the altar], he performs rituals and offers the same kind of sacrifices that could never remove [the guilt from anyone who] sinned [MTY].

Sa pagkatinuod, ang matag pari nagbarog adlaw-adlaw sa pag-alagad, naghalad sa samang mga halad, nga bisan pa niini dili makawagtang sa mga sala.

12 But [Christ] offered a sacrifice that [will be adequate] forever, and he offered it only one time! Then he sat down [to rule] with God at the place of highest honor [MTY].

Apan human naghalad si Cristo ug usa ka paghalad alang sa mga sala sa kahangtoran, siya milingkod sa tuong kamot sa Dios,

13 From now on, he is waiting for [God] to completely subdue [all] Christ’s enemies [MTY].

nagpaabot hangtod nga ang iyang kaaway magpaubos ug mahimong tumbanan alang sa iyang tiil.

14 By offering himself once, he has provided that those whom [God] has set apart will be eternally made (perfect/all that God intends them to be).

Kay pinaagi sa usa ka halad siya adunay kahingpitan sa kahangtoran kansang hinalad sa Dios.

15 The Holy Spirit also confirms to us [that this is true]. First the Lord says:

Ug ang Balaang Espiritu usab nagpamatuod kanato. Kay una miingon siya,

16 When the time [MTY] [when the first covenant that God made] with my people has ended, I will make a new covenant with them [MTY]. I will do like this for them: I will cause them to understand my laws and I will cause them to obey them (OR, enable them to know them sincerely).

“Mao kini ang kasabotan nga akong himuon uban kanila human niadtong mga adlawa,' miingon ang Ginoo: “Akong ibutang ang akong mga balaod sa ilang mga kasingkasing, ug akong isulat kini sa ilang mga hunahuna.”

17 Then [the Lord said]: [I will forgive them for] their [DOU] sins, and I will [consider] that they are no longer [guilty for] having sinned.

Unya miingon siya, “Dili ko na hinumdoman pa ang ilang mga sala ug ang mga buhat nga wala mosubay sa balaod.”

18 When [God] has forgiven someone’s sins, that person does not [need to make] any more offerings [to atone for his sin]!

Karon diin may kapasayloan alang niini, wala na gayoy bisan unsa nga halad alang sa sala.

19 So, my fellow believers, because we [trust in what Jesus accomplished when] his own blood [flowed for us], we can confidently go into [God’s very presence] that was [symbolized] by the very holy place [in the tent] [MTY].

Busa, mga igsoon, aduna na kitay pagsalig sa pagsulod ngadto sa labing balaan nga dapit pinaagi sa dugo ni Jesus.

20 Jesus enabled us to go into [God’s presence] by making a new and effective way. [Specifically], he [offered] his body [as a sacrifice] for us [in order that nothing would stop us] from entering [God’s presence, just like] [MET] the curtain [of the very holy place prevented people from entering God’s presence].

Mao kana ang dalan nga iyang gi-ablihan alang kanato pinaagi sa iyang lawas, ang bag-o ug buhi nga paagi pinaagi sa tabil.

21 Christ is a great priest [who rules over us, who are] God’s people [MTY].

Ug tungod kay aduna kitay usa ka bantogan nga pari sa balay sa Dios,

22 [Just like the priests] were sprinkled {[as Moses] sprinkled [the priests]} [with blood] [MET] to symbolize that they were no longer guilty for having sinned, we also no longer are [guilty for having done] evil. [Just like the priests ceremonially] washed their bodies with pure water [to prepare themselves to serve God], we are allowing [God] to continually make us pure. So, we [(inc)] must approach [God] sincerely by confidently trusting [in him].

magpaduol kita uban sa matuod nga kasingkasing sa bug-os nga pagsalig ug pagtuo, ang atong mga kasingkasing nga nawisikwisikan sa kahinlo gikan sa daotan nga kaisipan ug ang atong lawas nga nahugasan uban sa matuod nga tubig.

23 We must unwaveringly keep holding tight [to what we believe. Since God] faithfully [does all] he promised [to do], we must confidently expect [him to keep doing that].

Hugot gayod usab kitang maggunitay sa pagsugid sa atong masaligon nga pagpaabot, nga walay pagduhaduha, tungod kay ang Dios nga nagsaad matinud-anon.

24 [Since God] faithfully [does all that] he promised [to do], let us consider how each of us can motivate other believers, in order that [believers] will love each other, and in order that each one will do good things.

Atong hunahunaon kung unsaon pagdasig ang usag usa sa paghigugma ug sa maayong mga buhat.

25 We must not stop assembling ourselves [to worship the Lord], as some people have done. Instead, each one of us must encourage/exhort other believers. [Let us do that] even more since we know that the day [that the Lord will return] [MTY] is near.

Dili nato hunongon ang panagtigom, sama sa gibuhat sa pipila. Hinuon, awhaga pa ang usag usa, sama sa imong pagtan-aw sa nagkaduol na nga adlaw.

26 [We(inc) must do those things], because if we deliberately and habitually sin after we have known the true [message about Christ], no other sacrifice will remove our guilt for having sinned in that way.

Kay kung mapadayonon kita nga magpakasala human nato madawat ang kahibalo sa kamatuoran, ang usa ka paghalad alang sa sala nga dili na gayod molungtad.

27 Instead, we must fearfully expect that [God will] judge and angrily [punish] his enemies in a furious fire [MET].

Hinuon, adunay usa ka makalilisang nga mapaabot sa paghukom, ug ang usa ka mabangis nga kalayo nga magalamoy sa kaaway sa Dios.

28 Everyone who rejected the laws [that God gave] Moses was mercilessly killed when [at least] two or three people testified that they had done that.

Bisan kinsa nga nagsalikway sa balaod ni Moises namatay sa walay kaluoy sa pagpamatuod sa duha o tulo ka mga saksi.

29 [That was severe punishment]. But [Christ] is (God’s Son/the man who is also God). His blood, by means of which [he put into effect] the new covenant, is sacred. Because of [Christ’s] [MTY] blood [flowing for us when he died], [God] freed us from our guilt. So, you can be sure [RHQ] that anyone who shows contempt for [those truths] and who insults the Spirit of God, the one who acts with kindness toward us in a way we do not deserve, deserves to be punished even worse than [those Israelis were punished] [MET]!

Unsa pa kaha ang labaw nga silot nga angay sa matag usa nga sa inyong hunahuna nagyatakyatak sa Anak sa Dios, bisan kinsa nga nagtagad sa dugo sa kasabotan nga sama sa usa ka butang nga dili balaan, ang dugo nga nahalad na niya sa Dios — bisan kinsa nga nagbiaybiay sa Espiritu sa grasya?

30 [We can be sure of that] (OR, [need to think about that carefully]) since we know that God said, “I myself will get revenge on those who sinned, and I will punish them as they deserve [DOU].” [Moses wrote], “The Lord will judge his people.”

Kay nasayod kita sa usa nga miingon, “Ang pagpanimalos alang kanako; ako ra ang mobalos.” Ug usab, “Ang Ginoo maoy maghukom sa iyang mga katawhan.”

31 It will be a terrible thing if God who is all-powerful [MTY] seizes and punishes you [IDM]!

Kini usa ka makalilisang nga butang nga mahulog gikan sa mga kamot sa buhi nga Dios!

32 Recall previous times when you [first] understood [MET] [the message about Christ]. You endured a hard struggle, but you [continued to trust him] when you suffered [because you believed in Christ].

Apan hinumdomi ang nangagi nga mga adlaw, human nga kamo nalamdagan na — kung giunsa ninyo pag-agwanta ang dako nga kasakit sa pag-antos.

33 At times you were publicly insulted {people publicly insulted you} and you suffered {people persecuted you}. But you showed great concern for those who were treated like that.

Nabutyag kamo sa kadaghanan nga pagbiaybiay pinaagi sa mga pagpakaulaw ug sa paglutos, ug kamo nakasalmot uban niadtong nakasinati niana nga pag-antos.

34 You not only were kind to those who were in prison [because they believed in Christ], but you also accepted it joyfully when [unbelievers] took away your possessions. You accepted it because you yourselves knew very well that you have eternal possessions [in heaven] that are much better [than those that they took from you]!

Kay may kaluoy kamo niadtong mga binilanggo, ug gidawat ninyo nga malipayon ang pag-ilog sa inyong mga bahandi, sa pagkahibalo nga kamo sa inyong kaugalingon adunay labaw pang maayo ug walay kataposan nga bahandi.

35 So, do not become discouraged [when they cause you to suffer] {[you are persecuted]}, because [if you continue to trust in God], he will greatly reward you.

Busa ayaw isalikway ang inyong pagsalig, nga adunay dako nga ganti.

36 You must patiently continue [to trust in him] in order that, because of your doing what God wants you to do, he will give you what he has promised.

Kay nagkinahanglan kamo ug pailob, aron nga makadawat kamo kung unsa ang gisaad sa Dios, human ninyo gibuhat ang iyang kabubut-on.

37 [You must do that] since [a prophet wrote] in the Scriptures [that God said about the Messiah], In just a short time the one [I promised] would come will surely come; he will not delay coming.

“Kay mubo na lamang kaayo nga panahon, ang usa nga moanhi moabot gayod ug dili magalangan.

38 But those whom I have summoned, who [act] righteously, must continually live trusting in me, because if they, in a cowardly manner, cease [to trust in me], I (will not be pleased/will be angry) with them.

Ang usa nga matarong magpuyo pinaagi sa pagtuo. Apan kung mobalik siya, dili na ako mahimuot kaniya.”

39 But we are not ones who in a cowardly manner stop [trusting in God], with the result that God will severely punish us. Instead, we are ones who trust in him, with the result that [God] will save us [SYN] eternally.

Apan dili kita sama sa pipila niadtong mibalik sa pagkapukan. Hinuon, kita mao kadtong adunay pagtuo alang sa pagtipig sa atong mga kalag.
