Hebrews 9
1 [To continue]: In the first [covenant, God] regulated how people [should perform] rituals, and [he told them to make] [MTY] a sanctuary.
Musa: gousa: su Sema dialebeba: le, Gode Ea fi dunu da nodone sia: ne gadosu Sema amola dunuga hamoi diasu amo ganodini Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu.
2 [That sanctuary] was a tent that [the Israelites] set up. In its outer room there was the lampstand and the table [on which they put] the bread that [the priests] presented [to God. That room] was called ‘the holy place’.
Ilia Abula diasu amo ea dio Da: bena: gele gagui. Amo Abula diasu da ganodini gaga: iba: le aduna hamoi. La: idi bagade da Hadigi Malei Sesei. Amo ganodini, gamali amola fafai amo da: iya Godema imunu agi ga: gi da ligisi ba: i.
3 Behind the curtain inside [the holy place] there was [another] room. That was called ‘the very holy place’.
Abula amoga Abula diasu da gaga: i, amo baligili, Hadigidafa Momei Sesei ba: i.
4 It had an altar, [made from] gold, [for burning] incense. [It also had the chest which they called] the chest of the covenant. All its sides were covered with gold. In it was the golden pot which contained [pieces of the food they called] manna. [That was the food with which God miraculously fed the people before they entered the promised land]. In the chest there was also Aaron’s walking stick that budded [to prove that he was God’s true priest]. In the chest were also the stone tablets [on which God had written] the Ten Commandments.
Hadigi Momei Sesei midadi, oloda gouliga hamoi amoga ilia gabusiga: liligi, Gode nabima: ne gobesisu, amo ba: i. Hadigidafa Momei Sesei amo ganodini Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili ba: i. Amo da gouliga dedeboi. Amo ganodini, gouli faigelei (amo ganodini ma: na dialebe ba: i), Elane ea dagulu amoga lubi legesu amola igi aduna amoga Sema dedei, huluane dialebe ba: i.
5 On top of [the chest] were [figures of] winged creatures [that symbolized God’s] glory. Their [wings] overshadowed the chest’s lid where [the high priest sprinkled the blood] (to [atone for/to forgive]) [those who had sinned. I] do not [need] to write about these things in detail now.
Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili ea ga: lu da “Gogolema: ne Olofosu Fisu.” Amo da: iya da “selubimi” ilia ougia molole lelu. Amo da Gode da esalebe olelesu. Be wali liligi huluane olelemu da hamedei.
6 After all those things were prepared {After they had prepared all those things like that} [in the two rooms of the tent], the [Jewish] priests habitually went into the outer [room of the] tent to perform their rituals.
Hou da agoane hamosu ba: i. Gobele salasu dunu ilia da eso huluane Hadigi Malei Sesei amo ganodini hawa: hamomusa: ahoa.
7 But into the inner room, only the Supreme Priest [went], once a year. He always took [LIT] the blood [of animals that they had slaughtered]. He offered them [to God] for his own [sins] and for the sins that other people had committed. They included sins that they did not realize [were sinful].
Be gobele salasu Ouligisu dunu hi fawane da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei ganodini, ode amoga eso afadafa fawane golili daha. E da amo ganodini maga: me gaguli ahoa. Amo e da hi wadela: i hou amola ea fi dunu ilia wadela: i hou ili hame dawa: beba: le hamoi, amo Gode da gogolema: ne olofoma: ne, Godema dabe agoane iaha.
8 By those things the Holy Spirit indicated that [just like God] did not reveal the way [for ordinary people] to enter into the inner room while the outer room still existed [MET], [similarly he did not reveal the way for ordinary people to enter the presence of God while the Jewish system of offering sacrifices was in effect].
Gode Ea A: silibu da amo hou ganodini, ninima fedege agoane olelesa. Hadigi Malei Sesei da lelebeba: le, ninia da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei amo ganodini golili sa: imu da hamedeiwane ba: sa.
9 [The things that the priests did inside the outer room] [MTY] symbolized [what was true] during the time [when the first covenant was in effect]. According to [the first covenant] (OR, [In that outer room]), [priests] offered gifts and other sacrifices to God. But [by offering them], the people who brought them were unable to make themselves feel that they were no longer guilty for having sinned.
Amo da wali eso hou fedege olelesa. Bai gobele salasu liligi amola ohe fi medole gobele iasu, amo Godema i, amo da nodone sia: ne gadosu dunu ea dogo moloidafa hahamomu hamedei ba: sa.
10 [They brought those gifts and made those sacrifices] according to [regulations concerning] things to eat and drink, and [according to rules that required people to] wash various things. [God] declared that those regulations about our bodies were to be in effect until [he put into effect the new covenant]; that was a better system.
Bai amo gobele salasu hou da ha: i manu, hano amola dodofesu hou, amo fawane olelesa. Ilia da dabua Sema fawane. Gode Ea gaheabolo gousa: su Sema olelebeba: le, amo hea dabuagado liligi da Gode Ea hou olelelalu amogainini E da gaheabolo hou ilegesa.
11 But when Christ came as our Supreme Priest, [he brought] the good things that are now available. When he appeared, [he went into God’s presence in heaven. That is like a] [MET] very great and perfect tent not made by humans {which no human made} [SYN]; that is, it is not part of the world [God] created. It was better [than the tent Moses set up here on earth].
Be Gelesu da Gobele Salasu Ouligisu Dunu amo waha noga: i ba: su liligi ouligimusa: misi dagoi. Abula diasu amo ganodini E da hawa: hamonana, amo da musa: abula diasu baligi dagoi. Amo da dunuga hamoi liligi amola osobo bagade liligi hame.
12 [When a Supreme Priest goes into the inner room in the tent each year, he takes] goats’ blood and calves’ blood [to offer as a sacrifice]. But Christ did not [do that. It was as though] he went into that very holy place only once, taking his own blood with him. By doing that, he eternally redeemed us. (aiōnios g166)
Gelesu da abula diasu golili sa: ili, Hadigidafa Momei Sesei amo ganodini asili, E goudi amola bulamagau, amo ilia maga: me gobele salimusa: hame gaguli asi. Be Hi maga: me ganodini gaguli asili, ninima eso huluane esalalalumusa: , gaga: su hamoi dagoi. (aiōnios g166)
13 The priests sprinkle on people goats’ blood and bulls’ blood and [the water that has been filtered through] the ashes of a [red] heifer that has been [completely burned. By performing that ritual, they can ritually] cleanse the bodies of those who are [ceremonially] unclean. Furthermore, performing those rituals enabled people to have fellowship with God again.
Dunu da goudi amola bulamagau, amo ilia maga: me amola bulamagau mano laluga nei amo ea nasubu, ledo hamoi dunuma fogaga: gala: sa. Amo hou da ilia ledo dodofesa fedege agoane olelesa.
14 [So, because we know what] Christ [accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died for us] [PRS, MTY], we will be very certain that we are not guilty [of having] done those things [that those who are spiritually] dead do. [As a result], we can serve God, who is all-powerful. [The priests always offer to God animals] with no defects. Similarly, when Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] to God, he was sinless [MET]. He did that as a result of [God’s] eternal Spirit [helping him]. (aiōnios g166)
Amo hou da dafawaneba: le, Gelesu Ea maga: me da baligiliwane ledo dodofesa, amo ninia dawa: E da eso huluane mae bogole Fifi Ahoanusu A: silibu amo Ea gasaga, Hi da: i hodo gobele salasu ida: iwanedafa, Godema i dagoi. Ninia Esalalala Godema hawa: hamoma: ne, Yesu Gelesu Ea maga: me da ninia asigi dawa: su noga: le dodofemusa: dawa: Amaiba: le, ninia hamedei osobo bagade dodofesu hou bu hame dawa: mu. (aiōnios g166)
15 [By] dying [for us], [Christ] ([redeemed/] free from the penalty for their sins) even those who disobeyed the [conditions of] (OR, [during the time of]) the first covenant. So, [because] no [one could be made perfect by obeying the old covenant], now Christ establishes [between God and people] a new covenant. He does that in order that those whom God has chosen may eternally have [the blessings that God] has promised them. (aiōnios g166)
Amaiba: le, dunu amo Gode da ilima misa: ne sia: i, ilia Gode Ea esalalalumu hahawane imunu sia: i liligi lama: ne, Gelesu da Gaheabolo Gousa: su Sema amoma Ouligisu Dunu esala. Dunu afae da bogoiba: le, dunu eno ilia musa: Sema amoga ouligibiba: le wadela: le hamoi, amo hou gogolema: ne olofoi dagoi ba: sa. (aiōnios g166)
16 A covenant [is like a will. In the case of a will], [in order to put its provisions into effect], someone must prove that the one who made it has died.
Be osobo bagade dunu da bogosea, ea fi dunu da ea liligi amola muni lamusa: dawa: sea, ilia fofada: nanu, “A! Amo dunu da dafawane bogoidafa!”
17 A will goes into effect [only when the one who makes the will] has died. It is not in effect when the one who made it is still alive.
Amalalu, nana liligi lamu. Be dunu da esalea, e bogosea ea nana liligi lamu dunu da ilegei, be lamu da hamedei. E da bogobeba: le fawane, ilia amo liligi lamu.
18 And so [God] put the first covenant into effect only [LIT] by means of [animals’] blood that was shed [when they were slaughtered].
Amaiba: le, musa: gousa: su Sema da maga: me asiba: le fawane, defele ba: i.
19 After Moses had declared to all the Israelites everything that God commanded in the laws [that God gave him], he took calves’ and goats’ blood [mixed] with water. He [dipped into it] scarlet wool [that he tied around] a sprig of hyssop. Then he sprinkled [with some of the blood] the scroll itself containing God’s laws. Then he sprinkled [more of that blood on all the] people,
Mousese da hidadea dunu huluane nabima: ne, Sema huluane Sema Buga ganodini dedei, amo olelei. Amalalu, e da goudi amola bulamagau, amo ilia maga: me lale, amoma hano gilisili, e da “hisobe” ifa lubi amola yoi wulo, amoga Sema buga amola ea fi dunu huluane, ilima maga: me fogaga: gala: su.
20 saying to them, “This is the blood [which brings into effect] the covenant that God commanded that you [obey].”
E amane sia: i, “Amo maga: me da gousa: su Sema amo Gode da dilima nabawane hamoma: ne sia: i liligi, amo da dafawane olelema: ne ilegei hamosa!”
21 Likewise, he sprinkled with that blood the tent and every object that they used in performing rituals.
Amo hou defele, Mousese da Abula diasu amola amo ganodini liligi huluane, amo da: iya maga: me fogaga: gala: su.
22 It was by [sprinkling] blood that they [ritually] cleansed almost everything. That was what [was stated in] God’s laws. If blood is not shed [when people offer a sacrifice, God] cannot forgive [the person who is making the sacrifice].
Sema ganodini, ledo liligi huluane da maga: mega dodofeiba: le, ledo hame ba: sa. Maga: me da sogadigiba: le fawane, Gode da wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofosa.
23 So, by rituals like that, it was necessary for [the priests] to cleanse the things that symbolized what Christ does [MTY] in heaven. But God has to [consecrate] the [people who will enter] [MTY] heaven [by means of] better sacrifices than those.
Amo liligi da Hebene ganodini liligi amo fedege agoane diala. Amo liligi da ohe fi ilia maga: mega dodofei ba: i. Be Hebene ganodini gobele salasu hamoma: ne, Gode da amo hou baligi hou ba: musa: dawa: i.
24 Christ did not enter a sanctuary that humans made. That one only represented the true [sanctuary]. Instead, he entered heaven itself, in order to now be in God’s presence [to plead with] God for us.
Gelesu da dunu loboga hamoi Hadigi Malei Sesei amo da Hebene liligi fedege agoane, amo ganodini hame golili sa: i. E da Hebenedafa amo ganodini golili sa: i. Amo ganodini E da nini fidima: ne Godema sia: ne gadosa lela.
25 The [Jewish] Supreme Priest enters the very holy place once every year, taking blood that is not his own, [to offer it as a sacrifice]. But when Christ entered heaven, it was not in order to offer himself repeatedly like that.
Ode huluane amoga, Yu gobele salasu Ouligisu dunu da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei amo ganodini bulamagau o sibi amo ea maga: me gaguli ahoa. Be Yesu Gelesu da Ea da: i hodo imunusa: , ode bagohame amoga hame asi.
26 [If that were so], he would have needed to suffer [and shed his blood] repeatedly since [the time when God] created the world. But instead, in this final age, [Christ] has appeared once in order that by sacrificing himself he could cause [that people] no longer will be [punished for their] sins. (aiōn g165)
Amane hamoi ganiaba, E da osobo bagade hahamoi eso hemone, amogainini wali, amo ode huluane E da se nabasu eso bagohame amoga nabala: loba. Be wali, soge wadela: mu eso gadeneiba: le, E afadafa fawane, Ea da: i hodo gobele salasu agoane wadela: i hou fadegamusa: , misi dagoi. (aiōn g165)
27 All people must die once, and after that [God] will judge them [for their sins].
Dunu huluane afae afae da afae bogole, Gode Ea midadi fofada: musa: lelumu.
28 Likewise, when Christ [died], [God] offered him once to be a sacrifice, to punish him instead of the many [people who had] sinned. He will come [to earth] a second time, not [in order to sacrifice himself again for those who] have sinned, but in order to [complete] his saving those who expectantly wait for him.
Amo defele, Gode da Gelesu afadafa fawane gobele salasu agoane, dunu bagohame ilia wadela: i hou fadegamusa: asunasi. Gelesu da bu misunu galebe. Wadela: i hou fadegamusa: hame. Be Ea da dunu amo da E bu misunu ouesalebe, ilima gaga: sudafa ima: ne bu misunu.
