< Ahibirania 9 >
1 Rĩu-rĩ, kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa kĩa mbere nĩ kĩarĩ na mawatho maakoniĩ ũhoro wa kũhooya Ngai, o na ningĩ nĩ kwarĩ na handũ-harĩa-haamũre gũkũ thĩ.
The former indeed had also justifications of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.
2 Nĩ kwarĩ na hema yathondeketwo, na kanyũmba kayo ka mbere nĩ haarĩ na mũtĩ ũrĩa wa gũcuuria matawa, na metha, na mĩgate ĩrĩa mĩamũre; hau nĩho heetagwo “Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru.”
For there was a tabernacle made the first, wherein were the candlesticks, and the table, and the setting forth of loaves, which is called the holy.
3 Thuutha wa gĩtama gĩa keerĩ haarĩ na kanyũmba geetagwo, “Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno,”
And after the second veil, the tabernacle, which is called the holy of holies:
4 na hau nĩho haarĩ kĩgongona gĩa thahabu gĩa gũcinĩrwo ũbumba, na nĩho haarĩ ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro rĩrĩa rĩahumbĩrĩtwo na thahabu kũndũ guothe. Thĩinĩ wa ithandũkũ rĩu nĩ haarĩ na nyũngũ ya thahabu yarĩ na mana, na rũthanju rwa Harũni rũrĩa rwathundũkĩte, na ihengere cia mahiga iria ciandĩkĩtwo.
Having a golden censer, and the ark of the testament covered about on every part with gold, in which was a golden pot that had manna, and the rod of Aaron, that had blossomed, and the tables of the testament.
5 Igũrũ wa ithandũkũ rĩu nĩ haarĩ na akerubi a Riiri, mahumbĩrĩte gĩtĩ-gĩa-tha. No rĩu tũtingĩhota gũtaarĩria wega rĩu ũhoro wa kĩndũ o kĩndũ.
And over it were the cherubims of glory overshadowing the propitiatory: of which it is not needful to speak now particularly.
6 Nacio indo ciothe ciarĩkia kũbangwo ũguo-rĩ, athĩnjĩri-Ngai nao maatoonyaga kanyũmba kau ka mbere hĩndĩ ciothe nĩguo marute wĩra wao wa ũtungata.
Now these things being thus ordered, into the first tabernacle the priests indeed always entered, accomplishing the offices of sacrifices.
7 No rĩrĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene nowe wiki watoonyaga kanyũmba karĩa ga thĩinĩ, na aatoonyaga o ihinda o rĩmwe mwaka, na ndangĩatoonyire atakuuĩte thakame ya kũruta igongona nĩ ũndũ wake mwene na nĩ ũndũ wa mehia ma andũ marĩa meekĩte matekũmenya.
But into the second, the high priest alone, once a year: not without blood, which he offereth for his own, and the people’s ignorance:
8 Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo Roho Mũtheru oonanagia naguo atĩ njĩra ya gũtoonya Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno ndĩakoretwo ĩguũranĩirio ihinda rĩrĩa rĩothe hema ya mbere yarĩ ho.
The Holy Ghost signifying this, that the way into the holies was not yet made manifest, whilst the former tabernacle was yet standing.
9 Gĩkĩ gĩkĩrĩ o kĩonereria kĩa matukũ maya tũrĩ, atĩ maruta na magongona marĩa maarutagwo matingĩahotire gũtheria thamiri ya mũndũ ũrĩa mũhooi Ngai.
Which is a parable of the time present: according to which gifts and sacrifices are offered, which can not, as to the conscience, make him perfect that serveth, only in meats and in drinks,
10 Maũndũ macio makoniĩ o ũhoro wa kũrĩa na kũnyua, na magongona ma mĩthemba mĩingĩ ya gwĩtheria na mawatho ma na igũrũ tu, marĩa maathanĩtwo mekagwo nginya ihinda rĩrĩa maũndũ makeerũhio rĩgaakinya.
And divers washings, and justices of the flesh laid on them until the time of correction.
11 Rĩrĩa Kristũ ookire arĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene wa maũndũ mega marĩa marĩ kuo-rĩ, nĩagereire hema-inĩ ĩrĩa nene na nginyanĩru ĩrĩa ĩtathondeketwo na moko ma andũ, naguo ũguo nĩ kuuga ti ya mũmbĩre wa thĩ ĩno.
But Christ, being come an high priest of the good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hand, that is, not of this creation:
12 Ndaatoonyire na ũndũ wa thakame ya mbũri na njaũ; nowe aatoonyire Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno riita o rĩmwe rĩa kũigana na ũndũ wa thakame yake we mwene, arĩkĩtie gũkũũra andũ na ũkũũri ũrĩa ũtagaathira. (aiōnios )
Neither by the blood of goats, or of calves, but by his own blood, entered once into the holies, having obtained eternal redemption. (aiōnios )
13 Thakame ya mbũri na ndegwa, na mũhu wa moori ĩcinĩtwo, ciaminjaminjĩrio arĩa marĩ na thaahu, nĩciamatheragia na ikaniina thaahu mĩĩrĩ yao.
For if the blood of goats and of oxen, and the ashes of an heifer being sprinkled, sanctify such as are defiled, to the cleansing of the flesh:
14 Githĩ thakame ya Kristũ, ũrĩa werutire arĩ igongona rĩtarĩ kaũũgũ harĩ Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa Roho wa tene na tene, ndĩngĩgĩtheria thamiri ciitũ makĩria nĩguo itigane na ciĩko iria cierekagĩria mũndũ gĩkuũ-inĩ, nĩguo tũtungatagĩre Ngai ũrĩa ũtũũraga muoyo! (aiōnios )
How much more shall the blood of Christ, who by the Holy Ghost offered himself unspotted unto God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, to serve the living God? (aiōnios )
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, Kristũ nĩwe mũiguithania wa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩerũ, nĩguo arĩa metĩtwo mahote kũgaĩrwo igai rĩrĩa rĩĩranĩirwo rĩtagaathira, kuona atĩ rĩu nĩakuĩte arĩ mũkũũri wa kũmakũũra kuuma mehia-inĩ marĩa meekĩtwo kĩrĩkanĩro-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩa mbere. (aiōnios )
And therefore he is the mediator of the new testament: that by means of his death, for the redemption of those transgressions, which were under the former testament, they that are called may receive the promise of eternal inheritance. (aiōnios )
16 Tondũ ha ũhoro ũkoniĩ kwĩgaya-rĩ, nĩ kwagĩrĩire kũmenyeke wega atĩ ũcio wĩgaĩte nĩakuĩte,
For where there is a testament, the death of the testator must of necessity come in.
17 nĩ ũndũ kwĩgaya kũgĩaga na hinya rĩrĩa mũndũ ũrĩa wĩgaĩte aarĩkia gũkua; kwĩgaya gũtirĩ hinya rĩrĩa rĩothe ũrĩa wĩgaĩte arĩ muoyo.
For a testament is of force, after men are dead: otherwise it is as yet of no strength, whilst the testator liveth.
18 Ũguo noguo o nakĩo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa mbere gĩtingĩagĩire na hinya hatarĩ thakame.
Whereupon neither was the first indeed dedicated without blood.
19 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Musa aarĩkirie kũhe andũ othe maathani mothe marĩa maandĩkĩtwo watho-inĩ-rĩ, nĩoire thakame ya njaũ, o hamwe na maaĩ, na guoya mũtune, na mathĩgĩ ma mũthobi akĩminjaminjĩria ibuku rĩa gĩkũnjo o na andũ othe.
For when every commandment of the law had been read by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,
20 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ĩno nĩyo thakame ya kĩrĩkanĩro, kĩrĩa Ngai amwathĩte mwathĩkagĩre.”
Saying: This is the blood of the testament, which God hath enjoined unto you.
21 Ningĩ o ũndũ ũmwe, akĩminjaminjĩria Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo thakame o hamwe na indo iria ciothe ciahũthagĩrwo gũtungatĩra Ngai nacio.
The tabernacle also and all the vessels of the ministry, in like manner, he sprinkled with blood.
22 Na ti-itherũ, kũringana na watho hakuhĩ indo ciothe itheragio na thakame, na hatarĩ gũitwo gwa thakame-rĩ, gũtirĩ kũrekerwo kwa mehia.
And almost all things, according to the law, are cleansed with blood: and without shedding of blood there is no remission.
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩ kwagĩrĩire mĩhaano ya indo iria irĩ igũrũ ĩtheragio na magongona macio, no indo cia igũrũ cio nyene itheragio na magongona mega kũrĩ macio.
It is necessary therefore that the patterns of heavenly things should be cleansed with these: but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24 Nĩgũkorwo Kristũ ndaatoonyire handũ-harĩa-haamũre haakĩtwo na moko ma andũ hahaanaine na handũ harĩa ha ma; nowe aatoonyire igũrũ kuo kwene, kũrĩa rĩu arũgamĩte mbere ya Ngai nĩ ũndũ witũ.
For Jesus is not entered into the holies made with hands, the patterns of the true: but into heaven itself, that he may appear now in the presence of God for us.
25 O na ndaatoonyire igũrũ nĩguo erutage igongona kaingĩ kaingĩ ta ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai mũnene aatoonyaga Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno o mwaka arĩ na thakame ĩtarĩ yake mwene.
Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holies, every year with the blood of others:
26 Kũngĩrĩ ũguo-rĩ, Kristũ angĩtũũraga anyariiragwo kuuma rĩrĩa thĩ yombirwo. No rĩu, matukũ-inĩ maya ma kũrigĩrĩria, nĩaguũranĩirio riita rĩmwe rĩa kũigana nĩguo eherie wĩhia na ũndũ wa kwĩruta atuĩke igongona we mwene. (aiōn )
For then he ought to have suffered often from the beginning of the world: but now once at the end of ages, he hath appeared for the destruction of sin, by the sacrifice of himself. (aiōn )
27 Na o ta ũrĩa gũtuĩtwo atĩ andũ makuage o riita rĩmwe, na thuutha wa ũguo magatuĩrwo ciira-rĩ,
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this the judgment:
28 ũguo no taguo Kristũ aarutirwo igongona riita o rĩmwe nĩguo eherie mehia ma andũ aingĩ; nake nĩakaguũranĩrio riita rĩa keerĩ, no tigeetha akuue mehia, no nĩgeetha arehere arĩa mamwetagĩrĩra ũhonokio.
So also Christ was offered once to exhaust the sins of many; the second time he shall appear without sin to them that expect him unto salvation.
