< Hebrews 3 >
1 Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus,
Su walongu wangu, wantu wa Mlungu yamushemitwi na Mlungu, mumuholi Yesu yakatumitwi na Mlungu kuwera Ntumintumi na Mtambika Mkulu gwa njimiru yeni yatutakula.
2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also Moses was in all his house.
Yomberi kaweriti mjimirika kwa Mlungu yakamsyaguliti kutenda lihengu lyakuwi gambira Musa ntambu yakaweriti mjimirika kuwatendera wantu woseri wa Israeli, yawashemitwi numba ya Mlungu.
3 For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who built the house has more honor than the house.
Kumbiti Yesu kafiruwa kupananwa ukulu nentu kuliku Musa mana mnyawa numba wampanana ligoya nentu kuliku numba yeni.
4 For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
Kila numba wayinyawa na muntu tunga, kumbiti Mlungu ndo mnyawa gwa vintu vyoseri.
5 Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,
Musa kaweriti mjimirika mnumba yoseri ya Mlungu handa ntumintumi, na kalaviyiti ukapitawu wa vitwatira Mlungu hakavitakuli shakapanu.
6 but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.
Kumbiti Kristu ndo mjimirika gambira mwana munumba ya Mlungu, twaweni twenga ndo numba yakuwi, handa patulikolerana na ugangamala na kulitumbira vitwatira vyatulitumbira.
7 Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, “Today if you will hear his voice,
Su ntambu Rohu Mnanagala yakalongiti Mumalembu, “Leru handa pampikanira liziwu lya Mlungu,
8 don’t harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
namtenda myoyu yenu kuwera ikamala mumsindu ntambu yaiwera mushipindi sha majeru kushiwala,
9 where your fathers tested me and tried me, and saw my deeds for forty years.
Aku wazewi wenu wanjeriti, tembera wagawoniti matendu gangu
10 Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, but they didn’t know my ways.’
kwa vinja milongu msheshi. Su nushikalaliriti shiyiwuku shawu, na nongiti, kila shipindi maholu gawu gagalambuka, ‘Na wazimaniti ndiri njira zyangu.’
11 As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter into my rest.’”
Su nkalaliti, nulirapiti, ‘Hapeni wingiri nakamu pahala paneni pa kwoyera.’”
12 Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;
Su walongu mulikali weri nakiza yoseri pakati penu yakawera na moyu gudoda na yakajimira ndiri ata kulisega na Mlungu yakawera mkomu.
13 but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called “today”, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
Kumbiti pamwendereya kushipikinira shisoweru “Leru” pashisomwa Mumalembu Mananagala, mulipanani moyu kila lishaka. Su nakawera yumu gwenu yakatendwa moyu gwakuwi kuwera gukamala kwa kupayirwa na vidoda.
14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,
Mana twenga twankulikolerana pamuhera mngati mwa Kristu payiwera twankutenda kwa nakaka mpaka upeleru kwa litumbiru lyatuweriti nalu pakwanja.
15 while it is said, “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”
Malembu galonga hangu, “Leru handa pamupikanira liziwu lya Mlungu, namuwera wakakatala gambira, shipindi shilii sha msindu.”
16 For who, when they heard, rebelled? Wasn’t it all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?
Ashina gaa yawapikaniriti liziwu lya Mlungu kumbiti pamuhera na hangu waweriti na msindu? Ndo woseri walii yawalongoziwitwi na Musa kulawa Misri.
17 With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
Mlungu kawakalaliriti ashina gaa kwa vinja milongu msheshi? Kawakalaliriti walii yawatenditi vidoda, mawuti gawu ganangika kulii kushiwala.
18 To whom did he swear that they wouldn’t enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
Mlungu pakalirapiti kuwera hapeni wingiri pahala pangu pa kwoyera, kaweriti kankuwatakulira ashina gaa? Kaweriti kankuwatakulira walii yawamtendiriti msindu.
19 We see that they weren’t able to enter in because of unbelief.
Su tuwona handa wingira ndiri aku toziya walemiti kujimira.
