Hebrews 1
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
Nyakati zilizopita Mungu alizungumza na mababu zetu kupitia manabii mara nyingi na kwa njia nyingi.
2 Hath in these last days spoken to us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (aiōn g165)
Lakini katika siku hizi tulizonazo, Mungu ameongea nasi kupitia Mwana, ambaye alimweka kuwa mrithi wa vitu vyote, na ambaye kupitia yeye pia aliumba ulimwengu. (aiōn g165)
3 Who being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
Mwanawe ni nuru ya utukufu wake, tabia pekee ya asili yake, na anayeendeleza vitu vyote kwa neno la nguvu zake. Baada ya kukamilisha utakaso wa dhambi, aliketi chini mkono wa kulia wa enzi huko juu.
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Amekuwa bora kuliko malaika, kama vile jina alilolirithi lilivyo bora zaidi kuliko jina lao.
5 For to which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
Kwa maana ni kwa malaika gani aliwahi kusema, “Wewe ni mwanangu, leo nimekuwa baba yako?” Na tena, “Nitakuwa baba kwake, naye atakuwa mwana kwangu?”
6 And again, when he bringeth in the first-begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
Tena, wakati Mungu alipomleta mzaliwa wa kwanza ulimwenguni, husema, “Malaika wote wa Mungu lazima wamwabudu.”
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
Kuhusu malaika asema, “Yeye ambaye hufanya malaika zake kuwa roho, na watumishi wake kuwa ndimi za moto.”
8 But to the Son, [he saith], Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: a scepter of righteousness [is] the scepter of thy kingdom. (aiōn g165)
Lakini kuhusu Mwana husema, “Kiti chako cha enzi, Mungu, ni cha milele na milele. Fimbo ya ufalme wako ni fimbo ya haki. (aiōn g165)
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
Umependa haki na kuchukia uvunjaji wa sheria, kwa hiyo Mungu, Mungu wako, amekupaka mafuta ya furaha kuliko wenzako.”
10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
Hapo mwanzo, Bwana, uliweka msingi wa dunia. Mbingu ni kazi za mikono yako.
11 They shall perish; but thou remainest: and they all shall become old as doth a garment;
Zitatoweka, lakini wewe utaendelea. Zote zitachakaa kama vazi.
12 And as a vesture wilt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
Utazikunjakunja kama koti, nazo zitabadilika kama vazi. Lakini wewe ni yuleyule, na miaka yako haitakoma.”
13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
Lakini ni kwa malaika yupi Mungu alisema wakati wowote, “Keti mkono wangu wa kulia mpaka nitakapowafanya adui zako kuwa kiti cha miguu yako”?
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall inherit salvation?
Je, malaika wote siyo roho zilizotumwa kuwahudumia na kuwatunza wale watakaourithi wokovu?
