Maheberu 1
1 Kuntanzi Ireeza abawambi kubashemi betu chabapolofita, chenako ziingi ni munzila zishelene.
On many past occasions and in many different ways, God spoke to our fathers through the prophets.
2 Kono munzila zamazuba amanimani, abawambi kwetu cha Mwanakwe yabaketi, kuba swaana wazintu zonse. Ireeza hape ababumbi Inkanda chakwe. (aiōn g165)
But in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe. (aiōn g165)
3 Nji yobenyisa ikanya ye Ireeza, muchibumbantu chena muchili. Mane uwondise zintu zonse hamwina chalinzwi lyaziho zakwe. Heti chamana kujoloza zive, nekala hansi kwiyanza lyabulyo lya Nfumwetu wakwiwulu.
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature, upholding all things by His powerful word. After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
4 Ababi sina mukando kumañeloi, sina izina lyabayoli halishiyeme kuzamba mazina abo.
So He became as far superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is excellent beyond theirs.
5 Chakuti Ireeza kanabachiwambi kumañeloi, “U Mwanangu, sunu chinaba ni Iso”? “Kanibe ni mushemi kwali, imi iye mwabe mwanangu”?
For to which of the angels did God ever say: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father”? Or again: “I will be His Father, and He will be My Son”?
6 Hape, Ireeza haleta bana bentanzi munkanda, nati, “Wonse mañelo a Ireeza atameha kumulapela.”
And again, when God brings His firstborn into the world, He says: “Let all God’s angels worship Him.”
7 Kuamana ni mañeloi nati, “iye yo litendela luhuho lwamañeloi akwe, ni malimi amulilo abahikana bakwe.”
Now about the angels He says: “He makes His angels winds, His servants flames of fire.”
8 Kono kuamana ni Mwanakwe abati, Chihuna chako, Ireeza, chakuya kusena mamanimani. Mubuso wako mubuso wakuluka. (aiōn g165)
But about the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom. (aiōn g165)
9 Usaka kutenda zishiyeme, mi utoyete batenda zibilala. Hakwinabulyo Ireeza, Ireeza wako, yabakusiingi ioli yentabo kuhitiliza bamwenu.”
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You above Your companions with the oil of joy.”
10 “Kuntanzi, Simwine, ubatendi matangilo enkanda. Iwulu, nje mitendo yamanza ako,
And: “In the beginning, O Lord, You laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.
11 Kazimane, kono iwe mozwile habusu. Bonse kabasukehe sina kabaali kejila.
They will perish, but You remain; they will all wear out like a garment.
12 Kamuzibunge sina ngubo imi kazisanduke sina inkalulo yejila. Kono iwe uswana bulyo. imi zilimo zako kazimani.”
You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed; but You remain the same, and Your years will never end.”
13 Kono nji kwelihi kumañeloi Ireeza kwabawambi chenako ihi ne ihi, “Wikale kwi yanza lyangu lyabulyo kusikila inako yete nitende zila zako chihuna chamatende ako”?
Yet to which of the angels did God ever say: “Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet”?
14 Kahena luhuho lonse lwamañeloi lutusa, mi lutumwa kubabalela kwabo beti nibayole impuluso?
Are not the angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?
