< Hebrews 7 >

1 For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
Melikisedeki ŵaliji mwenye jwa musi wa Salemu ni jwambopesi jwa Akunnungu Ŵakulu. Che Iblahimu paŵaujaga kungondo kuŵauleje mamwenye kula, ŵasimene ni Melikisedeki ni Melikisedeki ŵampele upile che Iblahimu.
2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
Che Iblahimu nombe ŵampele liunjili lya kakumi lya indu iŵaijigele kungondo. Malumbo ga liina Melikisedeki gali “Mwenye jwakupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu”, ni sooni mwenye jwa ku Salemu malumbo gakwe “Mwenye jwa chitendewele.”
3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like to the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
Ngapagwa papalembekwe Mmalembo ga Akunnungu liina lya atatigwe Melikisedeki atamuno liina lya achikulugwe, ngapagwa jwakwimanyilila ŵapagwile chakachi atamuno ŵawile chakachi. Nombewo akulandana ni Mwana jwa Akunnungu, jwelejo chapunde kuŵa Jwambopesi kwa moŵa gose pangali mbesi.
4 Now consider how great this man [was], to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
Nipele, nnoleje yatite kuŵa jwankulu mundu jo. Ambuje ŵetu che Iblahimu ŵampele liunjili lya kakumi lya indu iŵaijigele kungondo.
5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they come from the loins of Abraham:
Tukumanyilila kuti malajisyo gakuti ŵanache ŵa che Lawi ŵaŵaliji ŵambopesi ni ŵakusachilwa kupochela liunjili lya kakumi kutyochela kwa ŵandu ŵa Isilaeli, ŵaali achalongo achinjao, nachiŵamuno ni ŵanyawo ali uŵelesi u che Iblahimu.
6 But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes from Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
Melikisedeki nganaŵa mundu jwa lukosyo lu che Lawi nambo ŵajigele liunjili lya kakumi kutyochela ku che Iblahimu ni sooni ŵampele upile che Iblahimu juŵapegwilwe chilanga ni Akunnungu.
7 And without all contradiction the less is blessed by the better.
Nambo pangapangwa makani gati jwankulungwa ni jwakumpa upile jwannandi.
8 And here men that die receive tithes; but there he [receiveth them], of whom it is testified that he liveth.
Ŵambopesi ŵakwigala liunjili lya kumi ŵala ali ŵandu ŵachawe lyuŵa limo, nambo che Melikisedeki juŵapochele liunjili lya kakumi akuŵalanjilwa umboni kuti ali jwanjumi mpela yagakuti Malembelo ga Akunnungu
9 And as I may say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
Nipele, tukukombola kusala kuti che Iblahimu paŵatyosisye liunjili lya kakumi, namose che Lawi juŵaliji jwa uŵelesi u che Iblahimu pamo ni uŵelesi wao, ŵatyosisye liunjili lya kakumi.
10 For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
Pakuŵa ikuŵechetekwa kuti Melikisedeki paŵasimene ni che Iblahimu, che Lawi ŵaliji akanaŵe kupagwa, ŵaliji mmiasi ja ambujegwe che Iblahimu.
11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law) what further need [was there] that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
Kopochela mu umbopesi wa Ŵalawi ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli ŵapegwilwe lilajisyo. Sambano iŵaga masengo ga umbopesi u che Lawi gamalile ngakukasachilwe kutyochela umbopesi wine waukuyiye umbopesi wa Melikisedeki ni ngaŵa umbopesi u che Haluni.
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
Pakuŵa pakukutyochela kupisyangana kwa chimbopesi, ikuŵajila kugagalausya malajisyo.
13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
Ni Ambuje ŵetu jwakuŵechetwa mu yeleyo ali jwa lukosyo lwine, nganapagwa namose jumo jwa lukosyo lwao juŵatumichile pa chilisa nti jwambopesi.
14 For [it is] evident that our Lord sprang from Judah; of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.
Pakuŵa ikumanyika kuti Ambuje ŵetu ŵatyochele mu lukosyo lwa Yuda ni yankati lukosyo lo che Musa nganaŵecheta chindu chachili chose yankati umbopesi.
15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
Sooni achi chikumanyika mwakupunda, kuti jwambopesi jwine jwakulandana ni Melikisedeki akopochele.
16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
Jwele nganatendekwa aŵe jwambopesi kwa malajisyo ga ŵandu, nambo kwa machili ga umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi.
17 For he testifieth, Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (aiōn g165)
Pakuŵa Malembelo ga Akunnungu gaŵalanjile umboni wati, “Mmwejo ndi Jwambopesi mpela wautite pakuŵa umbopesi wa Melikisedeki.” (aiōn g165)
18 For there is verily a disannulling of the preceding commandment on account of its weakness and unprofitableness.
Kwayele, alila lilajisyo lya kalakala lyaŵichikwe pambali, pakuŵa lyaliji lyakulepetala nombelyo lyaliji lyangali chindu,
19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the introduction of a better hope [did]; by which we draw nigh to God.
pakuŵa malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa ngagakukombola kupanganya chindu chiŵe chakumalilwa. Nambo sambano peuto pakwe, kuichisye chilolelo chambone nnope ni kwa litala lya chilolelo cho, tukukombola kwaŵandichila Akunnungu.
20 And inasmuch as not without an oath [he was made priest]:
Kupunda yeleyo, apano chipali chilumbilo cha Akunnungu. Nambo ŵandu ŵane wo ŵatendekwe kuŵa ŵambopesi pangali chilumbilo.
21 (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath, by him that said to him, The Lord swore, and will not repent, Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec: ) (aiōn g165)
Nambo Che Yesu atendekwe Jwambopesi nkulumbila, katema Akunnungu paŵansalile, “Ambuje alumbile ni ngasagalausya ‘Mmwejo ni jwambopesi kwa moŵa gose pangali mbesi.’” (aiōn g165)
22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
Kwa ligongo lya chilumbilo chi, Che Yesu atendekwe chimanyisyo chachikulosya kuti isyene tukwete lilangano lyalili lyambone mwakupunda.
23 And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
Sooni ŵambopesi ŵane ŵajinji ŵa lilangano lya kalakala, chiwa chalekasisye kwendelechela kupanganya masengo.
24 But this [man], because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. (aiōn g165)
Nambo Che Yesu nganaŵa mpela ŵanyawo ni akutama moŵa gose pangali mbesi, ni umbopesi wakwe ngaukukombola kupegwa mundu jwine. (aiōn g165)
25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come to God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Ligongo li akupakombola kwakulupusya kusyene ŵelewo ŵakwaŵandichila Akunnungu kwa litala lyao pakuŵa akutama moŵa gose kuti ŵapopeleleje kwa Akunnungu.
26 For such a high priest became us, [who is] holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
Pakuŵa twasachilwe uweji tukole Jwambopesi Jwankulu jwanti nyi, yaani jwali jwanswela, jwangali chileŵo namose sambi ni jwalekangenywe ni ŵandu ŵa sambi, ni kunyakulikwa mwinani kupunda kwinani.
27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
Jwelejo ngakulandana ni ŵambopesi achakulu ŵane ŵakusachilwa kutyosya mbopesi kila lyuŵa, kaje akutaga mbopesi kwa sambi syakwe nsyene, ni sooni kwa sambi sya ŵandu. Pakuŵa jwelejo ŵatesile kamo pe kwakatema kose paŵalityosisye nsyene kuwa.
28 For the law maketh men high priests who have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was after the law, [maketh] the Son, who is consecrated for evermore. (aiōn g165)
Malajisyo ga che Musa gakwasagula ŵandu ŵakulepetala kuŵa ŵambopesi achakulu, nambo lilangano lya Akunnungu liŵaŵisile kwa kulumbila ni sooni lilyaiche mu nyuma mwa malajisyo lyambisile Mwana, jwatendekwe jwamalilwe kwa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōn g165)
