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,
Merukizeddeeki yali kabaka w’e Ssaalemi, era yali kabona wa Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo. Ibulayimu bwe yali ng’ava mu lutalo mwe yattira bakabaka, Merukizeddeeki n’amusisinkana, n’amusabira omukisa.
2 and blessed him, to whom also Abraham divided the tenth of all his spoils; being in the first place, by interpretation of his name, king of righteousness, and moreover king of Salem, which is king of peace;
Ne Ibulayimu n’awa Merukizeddeeki ekitundu eky’ekkumi ekya byonna bye yanyaga. Okusooka erinnya Merukizeddeeki litegeeza nti Kabaka ow’Obutuukirivu. Ate era litegeeza kabaka w’e Ssaalemi ekitegeeza nti ye kabaka ow’emirembe.
3 without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days recorded, nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God, remaineth a priest continually.
Merukizeddeeki taliiko kitaawe oba nnyina. Ennaku ze teziriiko ntandikwa wadde enkomerero, era n’obulamu bwe tebukoma. Asigala kabona emirembe gyonna, ng’Omwana wa Katonda.
4 Now consider how great a man this was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
Kale mulabe Merukizeddeeki oyo nga bwe yali omukulu! Ibulayimu jjajjaffe yamuwa ekimu eky’ekkumi ekya byonna bye yanyaga.
5 And those indeed of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment according to the law to take tithes of the people, that is, of their brethren, though they came out of the loins of Abraham:
N’abo abazzukulu ba Leevi abaaweebwa obwakabona, balagirwa okusoloozanga ekimu eky’ekkumi ng’etteeka bwe ligamba, newaakubadde nga baava mu ntumbwe za Ibulayimu, kwe kugamba nti nabo baganda baabwe.
6 but he, whose pedigree is not reckoned among them, took tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
Naye oyo ataabalibwa mu kika kyabwe, yafuna ekimu eky’ekkumi okuva eri Ibulayimu, Merukizeddeeki n’asabira omukisa oyo eyalina ebyasuubizibwa.
7 Now without all contradiction the inferior is blessed by the superior:
Tewali kubuusabuusa omukulu y’asabira omuto omukisa.
8 besides, here men that die receive tithes; but there he of whom it is testified that he liveth.
Mu ngeri emu, ekimu eky’ekkumi kiweebwa eri abantu abafa, naye mu ngeri endala, kiweebwa eri oyo akakasibwa nga mulamu.
9 And (as one may say) even Levi, who receiveth tithes, paid tithes in Abraham:
Noolwekyo ka tugambe nti okuyita mu Ibulayimu, ne Leevi aweebwa ekimu eky’ekkumi, naye yawaayo ekimu eky’ekkumi.
10 for he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
Yali akyali mu ntumbwe za jjajjaawe, Merukizeddeeki bwe yamusisinkana.
11 Now if perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law) what farther need was there that another priest should arise after the order of Melchisedec, and not after the order of Aaron?
Kale singa okutuukirira kwaliwo lwa bwakabona obw’Ekileevi, kubanga abantu baaweebwa amateeka nga gasinzira ku bwo, kiki ekyetaaza kabona omulala okuva mu lubu lwa Merukizeddeeki, mu kifo ky’okuva mu lubu lwa Alooni?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change also of the law.
Kubanga bwe wabaawo okukyusibwa mu bwakababona, era kiba kyetaagisa n’okukyusa mu mateeka.
13 Now He, of whom these things are said, is of another tribe, of which none ever attended at the altar.
Oyo ayogerwako ebigambo ebyo wa kika kirala omutaavanga muntu eyali aweerezaako ku Kyoto.
14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang from Judah, as to which tribe Moses spake nothing about the priesthood.
Kubanga kimanyiddwa nga Mukama waffe yava mu Yuda ekika Musa ky’ataayogerako bigambo bya bwakabona.
15 And it is yet more abundantly evident, that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
Era kitegeerekeka nga wazeewo Kabona omulala mu kifaananyi kya Merukizeddeeki,
16 who is made not according to the law of a temporary command, but according to the power of an endless life.
atassibwawo ng’amateeka ag’ebiragiro eby’omubiri bwe gali, wabula ng’amaanyi bwe gali ag’obulamu obutaggwaawo.
Kubanga Kristo ayogerwako nti, “Oli kabona okutuusa emirembe gyonna ng’olubu lwa Merukizeddeeki bwe luli.” (aiōn g165)
18 For there is indeed a disannulling of the preceding command, on account of it's weakness and unprofitableness;
Ekiragiro ekyasooka kijjululwa olw’obunafu n’olw’obutagasa bwakyo,
19 for the law made nothing perfect, but the introducing of a better hope did, by which we draw near to God.
kubanga amateeka tegaliiko kye gatuukiriza, wabula essubi erisinga obulungi, mwe tuyita okusemberera Katonda.
20 Moreover inasmuch as He was not made priest without an oath,
Era kino tekyakolebwa watali kirayiro. Waliwo abaafuulibwa bakabona awatali kirayiro,
21 (for they indeed are become priests without the solemnity of an oath; but He with an oath, by Him who said unto Him, "The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:") (aiōn g165)
naye ye yafuulibwa kabona mu kirayiro, ng’ayita mu oyo amwogerako nti, “Mukama yalayira era tagenda kwejjusa: ‘Oli kabona emirembe gyonna.’” (aiōn g165)
22 by so much is Jesus become the surety of a better covenant.
Yesu kyeyava afuuka omuyima w’endagaano esinga obulungi.
23 And they were many priests, because they were by death hindered from continuing in their office;
Bangi abaafuulibwa bakabona kubanga baafanga ne basikirwa.
24 but He, because He abideth for ever, hath a priesthood that passeth not to any other: (aiōn g165)
Naye olwokubanga Yesu abeerera emirembe gyonna, alina obwakabona obutakyukakyuka. (aiōn g165)
25 wherefore also He is able to save to the uttermost, those that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Era kyava ayinza okulokolera ddala abajja eri Katonda ku bubwe, kubanga abeera mulamu ennaku zonna okubawolereza.
26 For such an high-priest was meet for us, who was holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and higher than the heavens;
Noolwekyo Kabona Asinga Obukulu afaanana bw’atyo ye yatusaanira, omutukuvu, ataliiko musango, wadde ebbala, eyayawulibwa okuva ku abo abalina ebibi, era eyagulumizibwa okusinga eggulu,
27 who hath no need, as the Levitical high-priests had, daily to offer sacrifices first for his own sins, and then for those of the people: for this He did once for all, in offering up Himself.
ataliiko kye yeetaaga ekya buli lunaku, nga bakabona abakulu abalala, okusooka okuwangayo ssaddaaka olw’ebibi bye ye, n’oluvannyuma olw’ebyo eby’abantu abalala. Ekyo yakikola omulundi gumu, bwe yeewaayo yennyini.
28 For the law appointeth men high-priests, who have infirmity; but the oath, recorded since the law, appointeth the Son to be priest for ever, being fully perfected for it. (aiōn g165)
Amateeka gaalondanga abantu okuba Bakabona Abasinga Obukulu n’obunafu bwabwe, naye ekigambo eky’ekirayiro, ekyaddirira amateeka, kironda Omwana eyatuukirira okutuusa emirembe gyonna. (aiōn g165)
