Ibraniyawa 7
1 Wannan Melkizedek sarkin Salem ne da kuma firist na Allah Mafi Ɗaukaka. Shi ne ya sadu da Ibrahim ya albarkace shi sa’ad da Ibrahim ya dawowa daga cin nasara a bisa sarakuna,
For this Melchisedech was king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him:
2 Ibrahim kuwa ya ba shi kashi ɗaya bisa goma na kome. Ma’anar sunan Melkizedek ita ce, “sarkin adalci.” Amma da yake Salem yana nufin “salama,” shi kuma “Sarkin salama” ne.
To whom also Abraham divided the tithes of all: who first indeed by interpretation, is king of justice: and then also king of Salem, that is, king of peace:
3 Ba shi da mahaifi ko mahaifiya, ba shi da asali, ba shi da farko ko ƙarshe, shi dai kamar Ɗan Allah ne kuma firist ne har abada.
Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but likened unto the Son of God, continueth a priest for ever.
4 Ku dubi irin girman da Melkizedek mana. Ko kakanmu Ibrahim ma ya ba shi kashi ɗaya bisa goma na ganima!
Now consider how great this man is, to whom also Abraham the patriarch gave tithes out of the principal things.
5 Yanzu doka ta umarci zuriyar Lawi waɗanda suka zama firistoci su karɓi kashi ɗaya bisa goma daga wurin mutane, wato,’yan’uwansu, ko da yake’yan’uwansu zuriyar Ibrahim ne.
And indeed they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is to say, of their brethren: though they themselves also came out of the loins of Abraham.
6 Ko da yake Melkizedek ba daga zuriyar Lawi ba ne, duk da haka Ibrahim ya ba shi kashi ɗaya bisa goma na abin da yake da shi, Melkizedek kuwa ya sa masa albarka, shi da aka yi wa alkawura.
But he, whose pedigree is not numbered among them, received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7 Kowa ya sani cewa na gaba shi yake sa wa na baya albarka.
And without all contradiction, that which is less, is blessed by the better.
8 Firistoci ake ba wa kashi ɗaya bisa goma na abin da mutane suke samu. Amma dukan firistoci sukan mutu, sai dai Melkizedek, kuma nassi ya ce yana da rai.
And here indeed, men that die, receive thithes: but there he hath witness, that he liveth.
9 Ana ma iya cewa zuriyar Lawi, mai karɓar kashi ɗaya bisa goma daga mutane, ya ba da kashi ɗaya bisa goma ta wurin Ibrahim,
And (as it may be said) even Levi who received tithes, paid tithes in Abraham:
10 wannan ya kasance haka domin an haifi Lawi daga baya a iyalin Ibrahim wanda ya ba wa Melkizedek kashi ɗaya bisa goma.
For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedech met him.
11 Ko da yake Dokar Musa ta ce dole firistoci su kasance zuriyar Lawi, waɗannan firistoci ba su iya sa wani yă zama cikakke ba. Saboda akwai bukata wani firist kamar Melkizedek ya zo, a maimakon wani daga iyalin Haruna.
If then perfection was by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law, ) what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchisedech, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?
12 Gama in aka canja yadda ake zaɓan firist, dole a canja Dokar ita ma.
For the priesthood being translated, it is necessary that a translation also be made of the law.
13 Mutumin da muke wannan zance a kai, ai, shi na wata kabila ce dabam, wadda ba wani daga kabilar da ya taɓa yin hidima a bagade.
For he, of whom these things are spoken, is of another tribe, of which no one attended on the altar.
14 Kowa ya san cewa Ubangijinmu ya fito ne daga zuriyar Yahuda ne, kuma Musa bai taɓa ce firistoci za su fito daga wannan kabila ba.
For it is evident that our Lord sprung out of Juda: in which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priests.
15 Canjin nan a Dokar Allah ya ƙara fitowa fili da wani firist dabam wanda yake kamar Melkizedek ya bayyana.
And it is yet far more evident: if according to the similitude of Melchisedech there ariseth another priest,
16 Ya zama firist ne ba saboda ya cika wata ƙa’ida ta zama zuriyar Lawi ba, sai dai bisa ga ikon ran da ba a iya hallakawa.
Who is made not according to the law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an indissoluble life:
For he testifieth: Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech. (aiōn g165)
18 Ta haka aka kawar da ƙa’ida marar ƙarfi da kuma marar amfani
There is indeed a setting aside of the former commandment, because of the weakness and unprofitableness thereof:
19 (gama doka ba tă mai da wani abu cikakke ba), yanzu kuwa bege mafi kyau ya ɗauki matsayinta. Ta haka kuma muka matso kusa da Allah.
(For the law brought nothing to perfection, ) but a bringing in of a better hope, by which we draw nigh to God.
20 Ba kuwa da rashin rantsuwa aka yi haka ba. Waɗansu sun zama firistocin ba tare da wata rantsuwa ba,
And inasmuch as it is not without an oath, (for the others indeed were made priests without an oath;
21 shi wannan ya zama firist ta wurin rantsuwar da Allah ya yi da ya ce masa, “Ubangiji ya rantse, ba kuwa zai canja zuciyarsa ba, ‘Kai firist ne na har abada.’” (aiōn g165)
But this with an oath, by him that said unto him: The Lord hath sworn, and he will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever.) (aiōn g165)
22 Saboda wannan rantsuwa, Yesu ya zama tabbacin alkawari mafi kyau.
By so much is Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
23 To, akwai waɗannan firistoci da yawa, da yake mutuwa ta hana su cin gaba da aikin zaman firist;
And the others indeed were made many priests, because by reason of death they were not suffered to continue:
But this, for that he continueth for ever, hath an everlasting priesthood, (aiōn g165)
25 Saboda haka ya iya ba da ceto gaba ɗaya ga masu zuwa wurin Allah ta wurinsa, gama kullum a raye yake saboda yă yi roƙo dominsu.
Whereby he is able also to save for ever them that come to God by him; always living to make intercession for us.
26 Irin wannan babban firist ne muke bukata, shi mai tsarki ne, marar aibi, mai tsabta, ba kamar mu masu zunubi ba sam. An ɗaukaka shi fiye da kome a sama.
For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Ba ya bukata yă yi ta miƙa hadayu kowace rana saboda zunubansa, sa’an nan saboda zunuban mutane kamar sauran firistoci. Ya miƙa hadaya sau ɗaya tak, sa’ad da ya miƙa kansa.
Who needeth not daily (as the other priests) to offer sacrifices first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this he did once, in offering himself.
28 Gama doka takan naɗa babban firist a cikin mutane masu kāsawa; amma rantsuwar da ta zo bayan dokar, ta naɗa Ɗan, wanda aka mai da shi cikakke har abada. (aiōn g165)
For the law maketh men priests, who have infirmity: but the word of the oath, which was since the law, the Son who is perfected for evermore. (aiōn g165)
