< Hebritɔwo 5 >
1 Wotiaa nunɔlagã ɖe sia ɖe tso amegbetɔwo dome, eye wodea dɔ asi nɛ be wòanɔ ŋgɔ na yewo le mawusubɔsubɔ ƒe nyawo me, eye wòatsɔ nunanawo kple nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsawo aɖo Mawu ŋkume.
For every chief priest — out of men taken — in behalf of men is set in things [pertaining] to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,
2 Nunɔlagã sia tea ŋu gbɔa dzi ɖi na numanyala siwo le mɔ tram la esi eya ŋutɔ hã nye gbɔdzɔgbɔdzɔtɔ le mɔ geɖewo nu.
able to be gentle to those ignorant and going astray, since himself also is compassed with infirmity;
3 Esia tae wòle be wòasa vɔ ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃ kple ame bubuwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
and because of this infirmity he ought, as for the people, so also for himself to offer for sins;
4 Ame aɖeke metsɔa bubu sia dea eɖokui ŋuti o; ele be Mawu nayɔe abe ale si wòyɔ Aron ene.
and no one to himself doth take the honour, but he who is called by God, as also Aaron:
5 Eya ta Kristo hã metsɔ nunɔlagã ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe da ɖe eɖokui dzi o ke boŋ Mawu gblɔ nɛ be, “Wòe nye vinye ŋutsu, egbe mezu fofowò.”
so also the Christ did not glorify himself to become chief priest, but He who spake unto him: 'My Son thou art, I to-day have begotten thee;'
6 Egagblɔ le teƒe bubu be, “Enye nunɔla tegbetegbe, eye wò ɖoƒe sɔ kple Melkizedek tɔ.” (aiōn )
as also in another [place] He saith, 'Thou [art] a priest — to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;' (aiōn )
7 Esi Yesu nɔ agbe le anyigba dzi la, ewɔ gbedodoɖawo kple kukuɖeɖewo kple ɣli kple aɖatsi na eya ame si si ŋusẽ le be wòaɖee tso ku me, eye wòɖo toe le eƒe bubu kple ɖokuibɔbɔ ta.
who in the days of his flesh both prayers and supplications unto Him who was able to save him from death — with strong crying and tears — having offered up, and having been heard in respect to that which he feared,
8 Togbɔ be eyae nye Mawu vi hã la, esrɔ̃ ɖokuibɔbɔ le fukpekpe siwo me wòto,
through being a Son, did learn by the things which he suffered — the obedience,
9 eye esi wowɔe blibo la, eva zu ɖeɖe mavɔ kpɔtsoƒe na ame siwo katã ɖoa toe. (aiōnios )
and having been made perfect, he did become to all those obeying him a cause of salvation age-during, (aiōnios )
10 Eye Mawu ɖoe be wòanye nunɔlagã abe Melkizedek ene.
having been addressed by God a chief priest, according to the order of Melchisedek,
11 Nya geɖewo li si wòle be míagblɔ le nu sia ŋu, gake esi mietea ŋu sea nu gɔme kabakaba o ta la, esesẽna be míaɖe nya siawo me na mi.
concerning whom we have much discourse and of hard explanation to say, since ye have become dull of hearing,
12 Le nyateƒe me la, togbɔ be fifia ele be mianye nufialawo hã la, miegahiã ame aɖe kokoko be wòagagbugbɔ afia gɔmedzenuwo mi tso Mawu ƒe nya ƒe nyateƒewo ŋu. Miehiã notsi, ke menye nuɖuɖu sesẽ o!
for even owing to be teachers, because of the time, again ye have need that one teach you what [are] the elements of the beginning of the oracles of God, and ye have become having need of milk, and not of strong food,
13 Ame sia ame si ganoa notsi esi wònye ɖevi ko ta la, mate ŋu ase nufiafia tso dzɔdzɔenyenye ŋuti gɔme o.
for every one who is partaking of milk [is] unskilled in the word of righteousness — for he is an infant,
14 Ke nuɖuɖu sesẽ nye ame tsitsiwo tɔ, ame siwo to eŋudɔwɔwɔ atraɖii me he wo ɖokuiwo be woate ŋu ade vovototo nyui kple vɔ̃ dome.
and of perfect men is the strong food, who because of the use are having the senses exercised, unto the discernment both of good and of evil.
