Hebrews 5
1 Every High Priest, taken from among men, is appointed as a representative of his fellow-men in their relations with God, to offer both gifts and sacrifices in expiation of sins.
Nokuti mupristi mukuru umwe neumwe, wakatorwa kubva kuvanhu, anogadzirwa vanhu pazvinhu zvaMwari, kuti abaire zvese zvipo nezvibairo nekuda kwezvivi;
2 And he is able to sympathise with the ignorant and deluded, since he is himself subject to weakness,
iye anogona kuva nemoyo munyoro pane vasingazivi nevakatsauka, sezvo naiye akakomberedzwa neutera.
3 and is therefore bound to offer sacrifices for sins, not only for the People, but equally so for himself.
Uye nekuda kwaizvozvi anofanira kubaira zvivi, sezvaanobaira zvevanhu, zvakadaro nekwaari.
4 Nor does any one take that high office upon himself, till he has been called to do so by God, as Aaron was.
Zvino hakuna munhu angazvitorera rukudzo uru, asi uyo wakadanwa naMwari, saAroniwo.
5 In the same way, even the Christ did not take the honour of the High Priesthood upon himself, but he was appointed by him who said to him — ‘Thou art my Son; this day I have become thy Father’;
Saizvozvo Kristuwo haana kuzvikudza iye kuva mupristi mukuru, asi uyo wakati kwaari: Ndiwe Mwanakomana wangu, nhasi ndakubereka.
6 and on another occasion also — ‘Thou art a priest for all time of the order of Melchizedek.’ (aiōn g165)
Sepamwewo anoti: Ndiwe mupristi nekusingaperi kubva kurudzi rwaMerikizedheki. (aiōn g165)
7 Jesus, in the days of his earthly life, offered prayers and supplications, with earnest cries and with tears, to him who was able to save him from death; and he was heard because of his devout submission.
Iye pamazuva enyama yake, abaira minyengetero nemikumbiro nekuchema kukuru nemisodzi kuna iye waigona kumuponesa kubva parufu, uye akanzwikwa nekuda kwekutya Mwari,
8 Son though he was, he learned obedience from his sufferings;
kunyange aiva Mwanakomana, wakadzidza kuteerera kubva pazvinhu zvaakatambudzika,
9 and, being made perfect, he became to all those who obey him the source of eternal Salvation, (aiōnios g166)
akatiwo aitwa wakaperedzerwa, akava muvambi weruponeso rwusingaperi kune vese vanomuteerera; (aiōnios g166)
10 while God himself pronounced him a High Priest of the order of Melchizedek.
anzi naMwari mupristi mukuru kubva kurudzi rwaMerikizedheki.
11 Now on this subject I have much to say, but it is difficult to explain it to you, because you have shown yourselves so slow to learn.
Watine zvizhinji zvatingataura pamusoro pake zvinoremawo kududzira, zvamakagomara pakunzwa.
12 For whereas, considering the time that has elapsed, you ought to be teaching others, you still need some one to teach you the very alphabet of the Divine Revelation, and need again to be fed with ‘milk’ instead of with ‘solid food.’
Nokuti apo pamaifanira kuva vadzidzisi nekuda kwenguva, makashaiwazve kuti kuve neanokudzidzisai kuti zvimiso zvekutanga zvemashoko aMwari zvii, uye mava vanoda mukaka, uye kwete kudya kukukutu.
13 For every one who still has to take ‘milk’ knows nothing of the Teaching of Righteousness; he is a mere infant.
Nokuti ani nani anodya mukaka haana unyanzvi mushoko rekururama; nokuti mucheche.
14 But ‘solid food’ is for Christians of mature faith — those whose faculties have been trained by practice to distinguish right from wrong.
Asi kudya kukukutu ndekwevakura zvakazara, ivo nekurovedzwa vakadzidzisa pfungwa kuparadzanisa zvese zvakanaka nezvakaipa.
