Ebilunba 1

1 U tienu den maadi hali yogu leni ti yajanba bi sawalipuaba ñoana nni yaa yogini n kaa wa leni mabuolu boncianla.

IN many ways, and many forms, God anciently conversed with our fathers, by the prophets:

2 Moala a dan juodi kaana nni O maadi len ti O bijua ñoabu nni. O den bili ke wan diedi li bonli kuli; leni wane ke, O go tagi li ŋandunli. (aiōn g165)

But in these latter days, he hath conversed with us, by his Son; whom he hath constituted heir of all things, and by whom he made the worlds; (aiōn g165)

3 Wani bijua n tie O kpiagidi nannanli, U tienu wani O yaaba yaa maalima. O kubi ŋanduna leni O maama yaama n pia u paciamu. wani n den ŋuudi ki ñani ti tuonbiadi ki den kali tanpoli joma ti kpiagidi tienu jienu.

who is the splendor of his glory, and the image of himself, and upholdeth all by the energy of his word; and by himself he made a purgation of sins, and sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.

4 Wan bijua, o den tua yua pia ti kpiagidi ki cie Makinba kelima Wan ba yaa yeli n pia ti kpiagidi ki cieba yeni yaapo.

And he is altogether superior to the angels, as he hath also inherited a name which excelleth theirs.

5 Olee Maleki yo ke U tienu yedi: a tie n bijua; N mali ŋa dinla. be yogunu yo ke O go yedi: N baa tie o ba, o mo baa tien bijua.

For to which of the angels did God ever say, Thou art my SON, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

6 wan den soani O bijakpiaga ŋanduna nni O go den yedi: U tienu Malekinba kuli n kpiagi O.

And again, when bringing the first begotten into the world, he said: Let all the angels of God worship him.

7 O go den maadi Malekinba po ki yedi: O teni ke O Malekinba tie nani u faalu yeni O naacenba mo tie nani u mupienu.

But of the angels he thus said: Who made his angels a wind, and his ministers a flaming fire.

8 Ama O bijua po, O den yedi: Fini Utienu, A bali kalikaanu baa ye hali o yogunu kuli. A badigbianu mo tie mi teginma gbianu. (aiōn g165)

But of the Son he said: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; a righteous sceptre is the sceptre of thy kingdom. (aiōn g165)

9 A bua miteginma, ki nani ti tuonbiadi. lan yaapo Utienu, ŋa Tienu gandi ŋa, ki wuli ŋa po li pamanli kpama, ki teni ke ŋa pia ti kpiagidi ki cie a lieba kuli.

Thou hast loved rectitude, and hated iniquity; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness more than thy associates.

10 O go yedi: O Diedo, hali mi cilima Fini n tagi ki tinga. Tanpoli mo tie A nu n soani yaa tuonli.

And again, Thou hast from the beginning laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands:

11 Lan kuli baa bodi ama, Fini wani baa ye hali o yogunu kuli; li kuli baa kpeligi nani li liadili yeni,

they will pass away, but thou endurest; and they all, like a robe, wax old;

12 A ba kokoli lan kuli nani ku liadigu yeni, ke li kuli ba lebidi; ama fini wani baa tie ŋan tie maama hali ya yogunu kuli. ŋA bina mo, ki pia gbenma.

and like a cloak, thou wilt fold them up. They will be changed; but thou wilt be as thou art, and thy years will not be finished.

13 O lee Maleki yo ke Utienu yedo: kali n najienu hali min baa teni ŋa yibalinba n tua ŋa taaŋma kaanu. naani Malekinba ki tie fuoma kaa? yaaba n tuuni U tienu po.

And to which of the angels did he ever say: Sit thou at my right hand, until I shall place thy enemies a footstool under thy feet?

14 Wan tuuni yaaba ke ban soani yaaba n baa ba mi tindima faali yaapo.

Are they not all spirits of ministration, who are sent to minister on account of them that are to inherit life?
