< Hebrews 8 >
1 To sum up what I have been saying: — Such is the High Priest that we have, one who ‘has taken his seat at the right hand’ of the throne of God’s Majesty in Heaven,
Abin da muke magana a nan shi ne, muna da irin wannan babban firist, wanda ya zauna a hannun dama na kursiyin Maɗaukaki a sama,
2 where he ministers in the Sanctuary, in that true Tabernacle set up by the Lord and not by man.
wanda yake hidima a cikin wuri mai tsarki, tabanakul na gaskiya wanda Ubangiji ne ya kafa, ba mutum ba.
3 Every High Priest is appointed for the purpose of offering gifts and sacrifices to God; it follows, therefore, that this High Priest must have some offering to make.
Da yake dole kowane babban firist da aka naɗa yă miƙa baye-baye da hadayu, haka ma wannan ya bukaci yă kasance da abin da zai miƙa.
4 If he were, however, still upon earth, he would not even be a priest, since there are already priests who offer the gifts as the Law directs.
Da a ce yana a duniya ne, da bai zama firist ba, domin a nan akwai mutanen da doka ta naɗa don su miƙa baye-baye.
5 (These priests, it is true, are engaged in a service which is only a copy and shadow of the heavenly realities, as is shown by the directions given to Moses when he was about to construct the Tabernacle. ‘Look to it,’ are the words, ‘that thou make every part in accordance with the pattern shown thee on the mountain.’)
Suna hidima a cikin tsattsarkan wuri wanda yake hoto da kuma siffar abin da yake cikin sama. Shi ya sa aka gargaɗi Musa sa’ad da yana dab da gina tabanakul cewa, “Ka lura fa, ka yi kome daidai bisa ga zānen da aka nuna maka a kan dutsen.”
6 But Jesus, as we see, has obtained a ministry as far excelling theirs, as the Covenant of which he is the intermediary, based, as it is, on better promises, excels the former Covenant.
Amma hidimar da Yesu ya karɓa tana da fifiko a kan tasu, kamar yadda alkawarin da shi ne yake matsakanci ya fi na dā fifiko nesa, an kuma kafa shi a kan alkawura mafi kyau.
7 If that first Covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second.
Gama da a ce alkawari na fari ba shi da wani laifi, da ba sai an sāke neman wani ba.
8 But, finding fault with the people, God says — ‘“Behold, a time is coming,” says the Lord, “When I will ratify a new Covenant with the People of Israel and with the People of Judah —
Amma Allah ya sami mutane da laifi ya ce, “Ina gaya muku lokaci yana zuwa, sa’ad da zan yi sabon alkawari da gidan Isra’ila da kuma gidan Yahuda.
9 Not such a Covenant as I made with their ancestors On the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not abide by their Covenant with me, And therefore I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
Ba zai zama kamar irin alkawarin da na yi da kakanni-kakanninsu sa’ad da na kama hannunsu don in fitar da su daga Masar ba, domin ba su yi aminci da alkawarina ba, sai na juya musu baya, in ji Ubangiji.
10 “This is the Covenant that I will make with the People of Israel After those days,” says the Lord. “I will impress my laws on their minds, And will inscribe them on their hearts; And I will be their God, And they shall be my People.
Wannan shi ne alkawarin da zan yi da gidan Isra’ila, bayan lokacin nan, in ji Ubangiji. Zan sa dokokina a cikin zukatansu, in kuma rubuta su a kan zukatansu. Zan zama Allahnsu, su kuwa za su zama mutanena.
11 There shall be no need for every man to instruct his fellow-citizen, Or for a man to say to his Brother ‘Learn to know the Lord’; For every one will know me, From the lowest to the highest.
Mutum ba zai ƙara koya wa maƙwabcinsa ba, balle mutum yă ce wa ɗan’uwansa, ‘Ka san Ubangiji,’ domin dukansu za su san ni, daga ƙaraminsu zuwa babba.
12 For I will be merciful to their wrong-doings, And I will no longer remember their sins.”’
Gama zan gafarta muguntarsu ba zan kuma ƙara tuna da zunubansu ba.”
13 By speaking of a ‘new’ Covenant, God at once renders the former Covenant obsolete; and whatever becomes obsolete and loses its force is virtually annulled.
Ta wurin kira wannan alkawari “sabo,” ya mai da na farin tsoho ke nan; abin da yake tsoho yana kuma daɗa tsufa, zai shuɗe nan ba da daɗewa ba.
