< 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.
Karon bisan pa ang naunang kasabotan adunay usa ka dapit alang sa pagsimba dinhi sa kalibotan ug mga pamaagi alang sa pagsimba.
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’.
Kay sulod sa tabernaculo adunay usa ka lawak nga giandam, ang gawas nga lawak, nga gitawag ug balaang dapit. Niining dapita anaa ang tangkawan, ang lamesa, ug ang tinapay sa atubangan.
3 Behind the curtain inside [the holy place] there was [another] room. That was called ‘the very holy place’.
Ug luyo sa ikaduha nga tabil ang lain pa nga lawak, nga gitawag ug labing balaan nga dapit. Aduna kini bulawan nga halaran alang sa insenso.
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.
Aduna usab kini arka sa kasabotan, nga gihal-opan gayod ug bulawan. Sa sulod niini ang usa ka bulawan nga banga nga adunay manna, ang sungkod ni Aaron nga nanalingsing, ug ang papan nga bato sa kasabotan.
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.
Ibabaw sa arka sa kasabotan ang hulagway sa mahimayaon nga kerubin nga naglandong ibabaw sa tabon sa pagpasig-uli, nga dili nato mahulagway sa tinagsatagsa karon.
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.
Human maandam kining mga butanga, ang mga pari manulod kanunay sa gawas nga lawak sa tabernaculo alang sa pagbuhat sa ilang mga buluhaton.
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].
Apan ang labaw nga pari mosulod sa ikaduha nga lawak nga mag-inusara ka-usa kada tuig, ug kanunay maghalad ug dugo nga halad alang sa iyang kaugalingon ug alang sa wala gituyo nga kasaypanan sa mga tawo.
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].
Ang Balaang Espiritu mao ang nagpadayag nga ang dalan paingon sa labing balaan nga dapit wala pa gibutyag hangtod nga ang naunang tabernaculo nagbarog pa.
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.
Mao kini ang usa ka paghulagway alang niining panahona. Ang mga gasa ug ang mga halad nga gihalad karon dili na makahingpit sa kaisipan sa magsisimba.
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.
Kini mga pagkaon ug mainom lamang, nga may kalambigitan sa nagkadaiyang matang sa seremonyas sa paghugas. Mao kini ang tanang mga tulumanon alang sa unod nga gihatag hangtod nga ang bag-ong pamaagi mapahimutang sa dapit.
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].
Mianhi si Cristo ingon nga usa ka labaw nga pari sa maayo nga mga butang nga paaboton, pinaagi sa labing dako ug labawng hingpit nga balaang tolda nga dili hinimo sa mga kamot sa tawo, nga dili iya niining hinimo nga kalibotan.
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 )
Dili kini pinaagi sa dugo sa mga kanding ug mga nating baka, kondili pinaagi sa iyang kaugalingong dugo nga misulod si Cristo ngadto sa labing balaan nga dapit sa makausa ra alang sa tanan ug gisiguro ang atong walay kataposang kaluwasan. (aiōnios )
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.
Kay kung ang dugo sa mga kanding ug sa mga torong baka ug ang pagwisik-wisik sa abo sa dumalaga nga baka niadtong mahugaw nga gipahinungod kanila ngadto sa Dios ug makapahinlo sa ilang lawas,
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 )
unsa pa kaha ang dugo ni Cristo, nga pinaagi sa Espiritu nga walay kataposan naghalad sa iyang kaugalingon nga walay ikasaway ngadto sa Dios, maghinlo sa atong kaisipan gikan sa mga patay nga mga binuhatan aron sa pag-alagad sa buhing Dios? (aiōnios )
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 )
Kay niini nga hinungdan, si Cristo mao ang tigpataliwala sa bag-o nga kasabotan. Tungod kini kay ang kamatayon gikuha aron sa pagpalingkawas niadtong nailalom sa naunang kasabotan gikan sa silot sa ilang mga sala, aron nga kadtong gitawag sa Dios mahimong modawat sa saad sa ilang walay kataposan nga panulondon. (aiōnios )
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.
Kay diin gani ang usa ka tawo mabiyaan sa usa ka tugon, gikinahanglan nga mapamatud-an ang kamatayon nianang tawhana nga nagbuhat niini.
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.
Kay ang tugon bililhon lamang kung adunay kamatayon, tungod kay wala kini bili samtang buhi pa ang nagbuhat niini.
18 And so [God] put the first covenant into effect only [LIT] by means of [animals’] blood that was shed [when they were slaughtered].
Busa bisan pa ang nahauna nga kasabotan natukod nga walay dugo.
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,
Kay sa dihang gihatag ni Moises ang matag sugo sa balaod sa tanang mga tawo, mikuha siya sa dugo sa nating baka ug sa mga kanding, uban ang tubig, balahibo nga mapula ug hisopo, ug giwisikwisik sa linukot nga basahon ug sa tanan nga mga tawo.
20 saying to them, “This is the blood [which brings into effect] the covenant that God commanded that you [obey].”
Unya siya miingon, “Mao kini ang dugo sa kasabotan diin ang Dios naghatag sa mga kasugoan diha kaninyo.”
21 Likewise, he sprinkled with that blood the tent and every object that they used in performing rituals.
Sa sama nga paagi, siya nagwisikwisik sa dugo ngadto sa tabernaculo ug sa tanan nga panudlanan nga ginamit sa mga parianong tulomanon.
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].
Ug sumala sa balaod, halos ang tanan nahinloan pinaagi sa dugo. Kung walay pag-ula sa dugo walay kapasayloan.
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.
Busa kinahanglan nga ang mga hulad sa mga butang sa langit mahinloan gayod pinaagi niining paghalad sa mga mananap. Apan, ang langitnong mga butang sa ilang kaugalingon pagahinloan uban sa labi pang maayo nga mga halad.
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.
Kay si Cristo wala misulod ngadto sa labing balaan nga dapit nga binuhat sa mga kamot, nga hulad lamang sa usa nga tinood. Hinuon siya misulod mismo sa langit, nga siya nangatubang karon sa atubangan sa Dios alang kanato.
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.
Wala siya miadto didto aron sa paghalad kanunay sa iyang kaugalingon, sama sa ginabuhat sa labaw nga pari, nga misulod sa labing balaan nga dapit matag tuig uban sa laing dugo.
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 )
Kung kana tinuod, nagpasabot nga gikinahanglan usab niya nga mag-antos sa makadaghang higayon sukad sa sinugdanan sa kalibotan. Apan karon gipadayag siya sa makausa lamang ka higayon sa kataposan sa katuigan aron sa pagkuha sa sala pinaagi sa paghalad sa iyang kaugalingon. (aiōn )
27 All people must die once, and after that [God] will judge them [for their sins].
Sama nga ang matag tawo gimbut-an aron mamatay sa makausa ra, ug human niana moabot ang paghukom,
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.
si Cristo usab, nga gihalad sa makausa aron sa pagkuha sa mga sala sa tanan, mopakita sa ikaduha nga higayon, dili sa katuyoan nga atubangon ang sala, apan alang sa kaluwasan niadtong mapailobon nga nagpaabot alang kaniya.
