Οὗτος γὰρ ὁ Μελχισέδεκ, βασιλεὺς Σαλήμ, ἱερεὺς τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ τοῦ Ὑψίστου, ὁ συναντήσας Ἀβραὰμ ὑποστρέφοντι ἀπὸ τῆς κοπῆς τῶν βασιλέων, καὶ εὐλογήσας αὐτόν,
2 Ibali kwali kwabahi Abrahama inkalulo yimwina yazina ikumi yazintu zonse. Izina Lyakwe “Melekisedeke” italusa “simwine wabulotu bumaniniza.” Ilumbatina lakwe limwi nji “simwine wa Salemi,” italusa, “simwine wekozo.”
ᾧ καὶ δεκάτην ἀπὸ πάντων ἐμέρισεν Ἀβραάμ, πρῶτον μὲν ἑρμηνευόμενος “Βασιλεὺς δικαιοσύνης”, ἔπειτα δὲ καὶ “Βασιλεὺς Σαλήμ”, ὅ ἐστιν, “Βασιλεὺς εἰρήνης”,
3 Kena isi, kena nyina, kena bakulubatanzi, kena nanga matangilo amazuba mane nanga mamaninizo abuhalo. Muchibakchobulyo, uswana ni Mwana we Ireeza, kakuli uswala kuba muprisita kuya kusena mamanimani.
ἀπάτωρ, ἀμήτωρ, ἀγενεαλόγητος, μήτε ἀρχὴν ἡμερῶν, μήτε ζωῆς τέλος ἔχων, ἀφωμοιωμένος δὲ τῷ Υἱῷ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, μένει ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸ διηνεκές.
4 Mubone mwabubanela uzu mukwame. Bakulubatanzi ba Abrahama babamuhi inkalulo yimwina yazina ikumi yazintu zonse zabakahindi mukondo.
Θεωρεῖτε δὲ πηλίκος οὗτος, ᾧ δεκάτην Ἀβραὰμ, ἔδωκεν ἐκ τῶν ἀκροθινίων, ὁ πατριάρχης.
5 Munzila imwi, bana ba Livi babaamuheli buprisita bena itaelo inzwa kumulao yakutambula inkalulo yimwina yazina ikumi yazintu kubantu, kutalusa kuti, kuzwililila kubanakwabo, nihaike kuti nabo, bulyo, babazwi kumubili wa Abrahama.
Καὶ οἱ μὲν ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Λευὶ τὴν ἱερατείαν λαμβάνοντες, ἐντολὴν ἔχουσιν ἀποδεκατοῖν τὸν λαὸν κατὰ τὸν νόμον, τοῦτʼ ἔστιν τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτῶν, καίπερ ἐξεληλυθότας ἐκ τῆς ὀσφύος Ἀβραάμ·
6 Kono chenzila imwi, Melekisedeke, ili uzo lusika lwakwe kanalubawoleki kwizibwa kuluzwa, abaamuheli inkalulo yimwina yazina ikumi yazintu kuzwa kwa Abrahama, imi abamutohonolofazi, iye yabena isepiso.
ὁ δὲ μὴ γενεαλογούμενος ἐξ αὐτῶν, δεδεκάτωκεν Ἀβραάμ, καὶ τὸν ἔχοντα τὰς ἐπαγγελίας, εὐλόγηκεν.
7 Kakwina kusapula kuti muntu wamazimo ena kunsi utohonolofazwa kumuntu wina mazimo makando.
Χωρὶς δὲ πάσης ἀντιλογίας, τὸ ἔλαττον ὑπὸ τοῦ κρείττονος εὐλογεῖται.
8 Mweyi indaba, mukwame yofwile utambula inkalulo yimwina yazina ikumi yazintu, kono chendaba ikola neyo kutiisezwa kuti uzwilahabusu kuhala.
Καὶ ὧδε μὲν δεκάτας ἀποθνῄσκοντες ἄνθρωποι λαμβάνουσιν, ἐκεῖ δὲ μαρτυρούμενος ὅτι ζῇ.
9 Imi, chamazimo akuwamba, Livi, yabatambuli inkalulo yimwina yazina ikumi yazintu, naye bulyo abalihi inkalulo yimwina yazina ikumi kwa Abrahama,
Καὶ ὡς ἔπος εἰπεῖν, διʼ Ἀβραὰμ, καὶ Λευεὶς, ὁ δεκάτας λαμβάνων, δεδεκάτωται.
10 kakuli Livi abena mumubili wamuzazi wetanzi munako ya Melekisedeke hasangana Abrahama.
Ἔτι γὰρ ἐν τῇ ὀσφύϊ τοῦ πατρὸς ἦν, ὅτε συνήντησεν αὐτῷ Μελχισέδεκ.
11 Linu haiba kuba yobuzwile mubuhalo bwachilumeli chintu chiwoleka chenzila yabuprisita bwa Chilivi (mukuti mwikonde lateni bantu babaamuheli mulao), bulotu nzi buchitokwahala kuba kwateni kwamuprisita zumwi kuba kwateni mumasule enzila ya Melekisedeke, ni kusahewa itokomelo kuba yichilila mikwa ya Aaroni?
Εἰ μὲν οὖν τελείωσις διὰ τῆς Λευιτικῆς ἱερωσύνης ἦν, ὁ λαὸς γὰρ ἐπʼ αὐτῆς νενομοθέτηται, τίς ἔτι χρεία κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ, ἕτερον ἀνίστασθαι ἱερέα, καὶ οὐ κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Ἀαρὼν λέγεσθαι;
12 Mukuti buprisita heti chibwachinchwa, mulao nao utameha kuchinchwa.
Μετατιθεμένης γὰρ τῆς ἱερωσύνης, ἐξ ἀνάγκης καὶ νόμου μετάθεσις γίνεται.
13 Mukuti yowambwa chezi zintu ngwamushobo umwi, kusena nanga umwina yabati nasebeza hakatala.
Ἐφʼ ὃν γὰρ λέγεται ταῦτα, φυλῆς ἑτέρας μετέσχηκεν, ἀφʼ ἧς οὐδεὶς προσέσχηκεν τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ.
14 Hanu kujolwele, ibali kwa Juda kwaba pepwa Simwine wetu, mushobo uti nanga ubabi Mushe asauwambi kuamana ni maprisita.
Πρόδηλον γὰρ, ὅτι ἐξ Ἰούδα ἀνατέταλκεν ὁ ˚Κύριος ἡμῶν, εἰς ἣν φυλὴν περὶ ἱερέων οὐδὲν Μωϋσῆς ἐλάλησεν.
15 Imi chituwamba chizuweka haishaiba zumwi muprisita uba kwateni yoswana ni Melekisedeke.
Καὶ περισσότερον ἔτι κατάδηλόν ἐστιν, εἰ κατὰ τὴν ὁμοιότητα Μελχισέδεκ, ἀνίσταται ἱερεὺς ἕτερος,
16 Kanaibali hamutomo wamulao walusika lwenyama kuti abe muprisita, kono ibali chamutomo wamaata abuhalo bwakwe busetinibumane.
ὃς οὐ κατὰ νόμον ἐντολῆς σαρκίνης γέγονεν, ἀλλὰ κατὰ δύναμιν ζωῆς ἀκαταλύτου.
17 Mukuti ziñoletwe zimupaka bulyo: “'Umuprisita wakuya kusena mamanimani munzila iswana ni mwababili Melekisedeke muprisita.” (aiōn g165)
Μαρτυρεῖται γὰρ, ὅτι “Σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ.” (aiōn g165)
18 Mukuti kubena kumanisa kwamulao ubena kwateni kakuli kanaubakolete ni kusaba ni yuso.
Ἀθέτησις μὲν γὰρ γίνεται προαγούσης ἐντολῆς, διὰ τὸ αὐτῆς ἀσθενὲς καὶ ἀνωφελές,
19 Mukuti mulao kana ubapangi chilukite. Nihakwina bulyo, kubena matangilo ena kulisepa nenza akubusu chenzila ituswanela kwiza kwe Ireeza.
(οὐδὲν γὰρ ἐτελείωσεν ὁ νόμος), ἐπεισαγωγὴ δὲ κρείττονος ἐλπίδος, διʼ ἧς ἐγγίζομεν τῷ ˚Θεῷ.
20 Imi inzi kanazibatendahali ni kusena kulikonka chekumbya. Chenzila imwi, abo bamwi bababi maprisita ni kusena kulikonka chekumbya.
Καὶ καθʼ ὅσον οὐ χωρὶς ὁρκωμοσίας, οἱ μὲν γὰρ χωρὶς ὁρκωμοσίας εἰσὶν ἱερεῖς γεγονότες,
21 Kono chenzila imwi, iyi kwateni, Jesu, ababi muprisita chakulikonka chekumbya kozo yabawambi kwali, “Ireeza abalikonki chekumbya mi ketinachinche maikuto akwe: 'Umuprisita wakuya kusena mamanimani.”' (aiōn g165)
ὁ δὲ μετὰ ὁρκωμοσίας διὰ τοῦ λέγοντος πρὸς αὐτόν, “Ὤμοσεν ˚Κύριος, καὶ οὐ μεταμεληθήσεται, ‘Σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα’”, (aiōn g165)
22 Cheyi inzila hape Jesu abahi isepiso yizwile yetumelelano yina nenza.
κατὰ τοσοῦτο καὶ κρείττονος διαθήκης, γέγονεν ἔγγυος, ˚Ἰησοῦς.
23 Chenzila imwi, bangi bababi maprisita kakuli chakufwa bakungulwa ni kusazwila habusu.
Καὶ οἱ μὲν πλείονές εἰσιν γεγονότες ἱερεῖς, διὰ τὸ θανάτῳ κωλύεσθαι παραμένειν·
24 Chenzila imwi, kakuli Jesu ushala kuba bulyo kuya kusena mamanimani, wina mazimo abuprisita asamani. (aiōn g165)
ὁ δὲ διὰ τὸ μένειν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, ἀπαράβατον ἔχει τὴν ἱερωσύνην. (aiōn g165)
25 Chobulyo uwola hape kuhuna cheniti beza kwe Ireeaza chenzila yakwe, kakuli inako yonse uhalila kubalapelela.
Ὅθεν καὶ σῴζειν εἰς τὸ παντελὲς δύναται, τοὺς προσερχομένους διʼ αὐτοῦ τῷ ˚Θεῷ, πάντοτε ζῶν εἰς τὸ ἐντυγχάνειν ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν.
26 Mukuti muprisita mukulwana bulyo njotuswanela. Kena chive, kena katowati, ujolola, uzwisizwe kubatendi bazive, imi ababi yohanzi kuhita mawulu akwiwulu.
Τοιοῦτος γὰρ ἡμῖν καὶ ἔπρεπεν ἀρχιερεύς, ὅσιος, ἄκακος, ἀμίαντος, κεχωρισμένος ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν, καὶ ὑψηλότερος τῶν οὐρανῶν γενόμενος·
27 Kakwina chatokwa, kaswani ni muprisita mukulwana, yoha chitabelo izuba ni zuba, kutanga chazive zakwe, mi linu zive zabantu bamwi. Abatutendeli bulyo kamwina tubonse, habalineli iye mwine.
ὃς οὐκ ἔχει καθʼ ἡμέραν ἀνάγκην, ὥσπερ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς, πρότερον ὑπὲρ τῶν ἰδίων ἁμαρτιῶν θυσίας ἀναφέρειν, ἔπειτα τῶν τοῦ λαοῦ· τοῦτο γὰρ ἐποίησεν ἐφάπαξ, ἑαυτὸν ἀνενέγκας.
28 Mukuti mulao ubika bakwame bena bufokoli kuba baprisita bakulwana. Kono linzi lakulikonka chekumbya, libezi mumasule amulao, libabiki Mwana, yabatendwa yolukite kuya kusena mamanimani. (aiōn g165)
Ὁ νόμος γὰρ ἀνθρώπους καθίστησιν ἀρχιερεῖς ἔχοντας ἀσθένειαν, ὁ λόγος δὲ τῆς ὁρκωμοσίας, τῆς μετὰ τὸν νόμον, Υἱόν, εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τετελειωμένον. (aiōn g165)
