Ebre 1
1 Bondye, nan tan lontan, nan plizyè epòk ak plizyè mwayen, te pale a zansèt nou yo pa pwofèt yo.
IN many ways, and many forms, God anciently conversed with our fathers, by the prophets:
2 Nan dènye jou sa yo, Li pale ak nou pa Fis Li a, ke Li te chwazi kòm eritye de tout bagay, e pa sila a osi, ke Li te fè mond lan. (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 Anplis, Li menm se refleksyon laglwa Li, ak reprezantasyon egzakt de nati Li. Se Li ki bay soutyen a tout bagay pa pawòl a pouvwa Li a. Lè li te fin pirifye tout peche yo, Li te monte chita sou bò dwat a Majeste anwo a.
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 Kòmsi li te devni bokou pi bon ke zanj yo, akoz Li eritye yon non pi ekselan ke yo menm.
And he is altogether superior to the angels, as he hath also inherited a name which excelleth theirs.
5 Paske a kilès nan zanj yo, Li te janm di: “Ou se Fis Mwen. Jodi a Mwen fè Ou”? E ankò: “Mwen va yon Papa pou Li e Li va yon Fis pou Mwen,”
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 E ankò, lè Li te pote premye ne a nan mond lan, Li di: “Kite tout zanj Bondye yo adore Li,”
And again, when bringing the first begotten into the world, he said: Let all the angels of God worship him.
7 A zanj yo Li di: “Li fè zanj Li yo tounen van, e sèvitè Li yo yon flanm dife”
But of the angels he thus said: Who made his angels a wind, and his ministers a flaming fire.
8 Men a Fis la, Li di: “Twòn pa Ou a, O Bondye, se pou Tout tan e pou tout tan. E otorite san patipri a se otorite wayòm Li an. (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 Ou renmen ladwati e ou rayi linikite; konsa, Bondye, Bondye pa w la te onksyone ou avèk lwil lajwa a pi plis ke parèy Ou yo.”
Thou hast loved rectitude, and hated iniquity; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness more than thy associates.
10 Epi, “Ou menm, Senyè, nan kòmansman an te poze fondasyon tè a. Syèl yo se zèv lamen Ou.
And again, Thou hast from the beginning laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands:
11 Yo va peri, men Ou va reste toujou. Yo tout va vin vye tankou vètman.
they will pass away, but thou endurest; and they all, like a robe, wax old;
12 Epi tankou yon manto, Ou va woule yo, fè woulo nèt. Tankou vètman, yo va vin chanje, men Ou rete menm jan an. Lane pa Ou yo p ap fini.”
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 Men a kilès nan zanj yo, Li janm di: “Chita sou men dwat Mwen, jiskaske Mwen fè lènmi Ou yo vin yon ti ban pou pye Ou”?
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 Èske tout zanj yo se pa lespri sèvitè, ki te voye eksprè pou rann sèvis pou koz a sila ki va eritye sali yo?
Are they not all spirits of ministration, who are sent to minister on account of them that are to inherit life?
