Hebrews 8
1 The main point of [all] that [I] have written is that we have a Supreme Priest like that. He has sat down to rule [MTY] with God [EUP] at the place of greatest honor in heaven.
Nene udursu nile imon na tidin nbelle inere, tidi nin npirist udia ulenge na asosin ncara alime unkutel ndia kitene kani.
2 He ministers in the Most Holy Place, that is, in the true place [of worship in heaven]. That is a place that [Moses’] tent [represented]. The Lord set up the true place of worship. No human [set it up].
Ame kuci nari nanya kutyi kulau, kutyii nliran kidegen na cikilari wa tuno, na unit usurneri ba.
3 Every Supreme Priest was appointed {[God] appointed every Supreme Priest} to offer [to God] gifts and sacrifices [for people who sinned]. So, since [Christ became a Supreme Priest], he also had to offer something.
Bara ko uyeme upirist iwa fereghe a ni vat unizu nin gutunu nmyi bara kulapi, bara nani uso gbas ise imomon na iba ni.
4 Since there are already [Jewish] priests who offer gifts as God’s laws [require], if Christ were [now living] on the earth, he would not be a Supreme Priest.
Nene ndah Kristi wandi nanya nyi, na awa so upirist ba, sam, tunda na amon duku allenghe na ina niza ufilizinu bara uduka.
5 The [Jewish] priests perform rituals which are only a model [DOU] of [what Christ would do in heaven] [MTY]. What [God] told Moses when Moses was about to set up the tent [for worshipping him supports the idea that those rituals were only a model. God said], “Be sure that you [(sg)] make everything according to the model that I showed you on [Sinai] Mountain!”
Iwa tumuzun imomon ile na uli nafo ulema nin nshin, nimon kitene kani, nafo na Kutelle wa su Musa ku kagbara, kubi na awadi nworu a tuno litino kutyin nliran, “yene” Kutelle woro “uba ke imone vat nafo nda na iwa dursofi kitene likup,”
6 But now as it is, [Christ] ministers in a more excellent way [than the Jewish priests do]. Likewise, the [new] covenant that he established [between God and people] is better [than the old one. When the new covenant was established] {[God established the new covenant]}, he promised us better things [than the laws that God gave Moses did].
Bara nene Kristi wa seru katuwa kadia, bara ame tutun di kiyitik nalikawali acine, alenge na iwa tunno nanya likawali acine.
7 If that first covenant had been perfectly adequate [LIT], God would not have thought that he needed another [covenant/agreement to replace it]. But [it was not adequate, so he needed a new one].
Andi aleli alikawali nburne na nnana ba na ubellen npiziru nalikawali an ba ba yitu ku ba.
8 Because God declared [that the Israelites] were guilty [of not obeying the first covenant, he wanted a new covenant. This is what] ([a prophet/Jeremiah]) [wrote about that]: The Lord says, “Listen! There will soon be a time when I will make a new covenant with the people [MTY] of Israel and the people [MTY] of Judah.
Na Kutelle wase kulapi kiti nanit, aworo “yenen ayiri din ncinu” ubellun ncikalari. Kubi na mba su alikawali apese nin kilarin Isiraila, nin kinin kilarin Yahuda.
9 That covenant will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors when I led them out of Egypt [MET] [like a father leads a child] by the hand. They did not continue to [obey] my covenant, so I rejected them,” says the Lord.
Na aba yitu nafo alikawali alenge na nnasu nan na cifi mene ba, nloli liyire na nwan yacun nani nin nacara nnutuno nani nanyan nmyin nmasar, bara na iwa li ubun nanya nalikawali nighe ba.
10 “This is the covenant that I will make with the Israelites [MTY], after [the first covenant has ended] [MTY],” says the Lord: “I will enable them to understand my laws [MTY], and I will enable them to obey them (OR, truly know them) [MTY] sincerely. I will be their God, and they will be my people [DOU].
“Bara alelere alikawali alenge na mbasu nin kilari Isiraila, kimal nale ayire” ubellun cikilari “mba” ciu uduka nigh nanya nibinai mine, mba kuru nyertu unin nanya nayi mine, mba so Kutelle mine, ung baso anit nighe.
11 [As a result], no one will [need to] teach a fellow citizen or tell his fellow kinsmen, ‘[You need to] know the Lord,’ because all [my people] will know me: [My people] of every status [will know me].
Na inug ba dursu umon unan lisosin kupo mine ba, sa umon gwana me, ubelle, “yinnon cikilare” bara vat ba yinie, unuzu nbene udu udiawe.
12 I will mercifully [forgive them for] the wicked things they have done. I will no longer [consider] that [they are guilty for] [DOU] [their] sins.”
Bara meng ba dursu nkunekune kitene naddu ananzan mine, na meng ba kuru nlizin nin nalapi mine ba.
13 Since God spoke about a new [covenant], he considered that the first [covenant] was no longer in use, and that it would soon disappear, just like [anything that] gets old [will disappear] [MET, DOU].
Nanya nbelle “ipese” anati alikawali nburne akuse inin ulenge na ana bellin iso ikuse ina mali uwulu.
