< Ndị Hibru 1 >
1 Na mgbe ochie, Chineke gwara nna nna anyị ha okwu nʼoge dị iche iche site nʼọnụ ndị amụma, na site nʼụzọ ndị ọzọ dị iche iche.
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
2 Ma nʼoge ikpeazụ ndị a, ọ gwala anyị okwu site nʼọnụ Ọkpara ya, onye o nyefere ihe niile nʼaka. Ọ bụ site nʼaka ya ka o siri kee ụwa niile na ihe dị nʼime ya. (aiōn )
Hath in these last days spoken to us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (aiōn )
3 Ọ na-enwupụta ebube ya na-anọchitekwa anya ụdịdị ya, ebe o ji okwu ya dị ike na-ejikọta ihe niile. Mgbe ọ sachapụrụ ma hichapụkwa mmehie niile, ọ nọdụrụ nʼaka nri nke Onye dị ukwuu, dị elu nʼeluigwe.
Who being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4 Ya mere, ọ bụrụla onye dị ukwu karịa ndị mmụọ ozi dị ka aha e nyere ya si dị elu karịa nke ha.
Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
5 Onye nʼetiti ndị mmụọ ozi ka ọ gwarala sị, “Ị bụ Ọkpara m. Taa abụrụla m Nna gị”? Maọbụ ọzọkwa, “Aga m abụrụ ya Nna, ya onwe ya ga-abụkwara m Nwa”?
For to which of the angels said he at any time, 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 Ọzọkwa, mgbe o mere ka nwa mbụ ya bịa nʼụwa, o nyere iwu sị, “Ka ndị mmụọ ozi Chineke niile fee ya ofufe.”
And again, when he bringeth in the first-begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 O kwukwara banyere ndị mmụọ ozi ya, ọ sịrị, “Ọ na-eme ndị mmụọ ozi ya ka ha bụrụ ikuku, na-emekwa ndị na-ejere ya ozi ka ha bụrụ ire ọkụ.”
And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 Ma banyere Ọkpara ahụ, ọ sịrị, “Ocheeze gị, O Chineke, ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Mkpara omume ziri ezi ka mkpara alaeze gị ga-abụ. (aiōn )
But to the Son, [he saith], Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: a scepter of righteousness [is] the scepter of thy kingdom. (aiōn )
9 Ị hụrụ ezi omume nʼanya ma kpọọ ihe ọjọọ asị. Nʼihi nke a, Chineke, nke bụ Chineke gị, emeela ka ịdị elu karịa ndị ibe gị niile site na ite gị mmanụ nke ọṅụ.”
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10 Ọ sịkwara, “Na mmalite, Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ gị tọrọ ntọala ụwa, eluigwe bụkwa ọrụ aka gị.
And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
11 Ha ga-ala nʼiyi, ma gị onwe gị ga-anọgide. Ha niile ga-aka nka dịka uwe.
They shall perish; but thou remainest: and they all shall become old as doth a garment;
12 Ị ga-apịakọta ha, gbanwee ha dị ka akwa. Ma gị onwe gị enweghị mgbanwe. Ọnụọgụgụ afọ gị agaghị enwe ọgwụgwụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
And as a vesture wilt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
13 O nweela mmụọ ozi ọbụla ọ sịrị, “Nọdụ ala nʼaka nri m ruo mgbe m ga-eme ndị iro gị ihe mgbakwasị ụkwụ nye ụkwụ gị”?
But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
14 Ndị mmụọ ozi niile, ha abụghị mmụọ ndị na-ejere Chineke ozi, ndị a na-ezipụ ka ha jee ozi nʼihi ndị ahụ ga-eketa nzọpụta?
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall inherit salvation?
