< Ahibirania 5 >

1 Rĩu-rĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene o wothe athuuragwo kuuma gatagatĩ ka andũ na agatuuo wa kũmarũgamĩrĩra maũndũ-inĩ marĩa makoniĩ Ngai, nĩguo arutage maruta na magongona nĩ ũndũ wa kũhoroheria mehia.
For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.
2 Nake nĩahotaga gũkirĩrĩria arĩa matarĩ na ũmenyo o na arĩa maturuurĩte, kuona atĩ o nake nĩarĩ ũhũthũ wake.
The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness.
3 Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ũtũmaga arute magongona ma kũhoroheria mehia make mwene, o ta ũrĩa amarutaga nĩ ũndũ wa mehia ma kĩrĩndĩ.
Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, as well as for himself.
4 Gũtirĩ mũndũ wĩheaga gĩtĩĩo kĩu we mwene; no nginya akorwo etĩtwo nĩ Ngai, o ta ũrĩa Harũni eetirwo.
Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, o nake Kristũ ndaigana kwĩyoera ũgooci wa gũtuĩka mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene. No nĩ Ngai wamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Mũrũ wakwa; ũmũthĩ nĩndatuĩka Thoguo.”
So also Christ did not glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him, “You are my Son. Today I have become your father.”
6 Na handũ hangĩ oigĩte atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nginya tene, o ta ũrĩa Melikisedeki aatariĩ.” (aiōn g165)
As he says also in another place, "You are a priest for the age (aiōn g165), after the order of Melchizedek."
7 Matukũ-inĩ marĩa Jesũ aatũũraga gũkũ thĩ-rĩ, nĩahooyaga na agathaitha Ngai, agĩkayaga mũno agĩitaga maithori kũrĩ ũcio ũngĩahotire kũmũhonokia kuuma gĩkuũ-inĩ, na nĩaiguagwo nĩ ũndũ wa kwĩnyiihia gwake.
He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
8 O na gũtuĩka aarĩ mũriũ, nĩerutire gwathĩka nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa aanyariirĩkire,
though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered.
9 na aarĩkia gũtuuo mwagĩrĩru kũna, agĩtuĩka kĩhumo kĩa ũhonokio ũrĩa ũtagaathira harĩ arĩa othe mamwathĩkagĩra, (aiōnios g166)
Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of consummate (aiōnios g166) salvation,
10 nake Ngai akĩmũtua mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũnene o ta ũrĩa Melikisedeki aatariĩ.
named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
11 Nĩtũrĩ na maũndũ maingĩ tũngĩmwĩra makoniĩ ũhoro ũyũ, no nĩ hinya kũmũtaarĩria tondũ mũtinyiitaga maũndũ narua.
About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing.
12 Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, o na gũtuĩka rĩu mwagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkorwo mũrĩ arutani-rĩ, nĩmũbatarĩte mũndũ wa kũmũruta maũndũ marĩa mwarutĩtwo kĩambĩrĩria ma kiugo kĩa Ngai o rĩngĩ. Inyuĩ mũbataire kũheo iria, no ti irio nyũmũ!
For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.
13 Mũndũ o wothe ũnyuuaga iria, tondũ no gakenge-rĩ, ndangĩmenya wega ũhoro wa ũrutani wa ũthingu.
For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.
14 No irio iria nyũmũ nĩ cia andũ arĩa agima, arĩa nĩ ũndũ wa kũmenyera gũcihũthĩra kaingĩ, nĩmerutĩte gũkũũrana wega na ũũru.
But solid food is for those who are full grown, who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.
