Abaebbulaniya 1
1 Edda, Katonda yayogeranga ne bajjajjaffe mu ngeri nnyingi ez’enjawulo ng’ayita mu bannabbi;
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
2 naye mu nnaku zino ez’oluvannyuma yayogera naffe ng’ayita mu Mwana, gwe yalonda okuba omusika wa byonna, era mu oyo mwe yatondera ensi n’ebintu byonna ebirimu. (aiōn g165)
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 g165)
3 Amasamasa n’ekitiibwa kya Katonda, era ky’ekifaananyi kye ddala bw’ali, era abeezaawo buli kintu olw’ekigambo kye eky’amaanyi. Bwe yamala okukola ekikolwa eky’okututukuza okuva mu bibi, n’atuula ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogwa Katonda mu Bwakabaka obw’omu ggulu.
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 Bw’atyo n’asinga bamalayika, nga kyeragira ku linnya lye okuba ery’ekitiibwa okusinga amannya gaabwe.
Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
5 Kubanga ani ku bamalayika gwe yali ayogeddeko nti, “Ggwe oli Mwana wange, Leero nkuzadde?” Era nate nti, “Nze nnaabeeranga Kitaawe gy’ali naye anaabeeranga Mwana wange gye ndi?”
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 Era nate bw’aleeta Omwana we omubereberye mu nsi, agamba nti, “Bamalayika ba Katonda bonna bamusinzenga.”
And again, when he bringeth in the first-begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 Era ayogera ku bamalayika nti, “Afuula bamalayika be ng’empewo, n’afuula n’abaweereza be ng’ennimi z’omuliro.”
And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 Naye ku Mwana ayogera nti, “Entebe yo ey’Obwakabaka, Ayi Katonda, ya lubeerera emirembe n’emirembe; obutuukirivu, gwe muggo ogw’obwakabaka bwo. (aiōn g165)
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 g165)
9 Wayagala obutuukirivu n’okyawa obujeemu. Katonda, era Katonda wo kyeyava akufukako amafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni agaleeta essanyu okusinga banno.”
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10 Ayongera n’agamba nti, “Mukama ku lubereberye wassaawo omusingi gw’ensi, era n’eggulu mirimu gwa mukono gwo.
And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
11 Ebyo biriggwaawo, naye ggwe olibeerera emirembe gyonna, era byonna birikaddiwa ng’ekyambalo bwe kikaddiwa.
They shall perish; but thou remainest: and they all shall become old as doth a garment;
12 Era olibizingako ng’ekooti bwe zingibwako, era birikyusibwa ng’ekyambalo bwe kikyusibwa. Naye ggwe oba bumu, so n’emyaka gyo tegirikoma.”
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 Ani ku bamalayika gwe yali agambye nti, “Tuula wano ku mukono gwange ogwa ddyo, okutuusa lwe ndifufuggaza abalabe bo, ne bafuuka entebe y’ebigere byo”?
But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
14 Bamalayika bonna, myoyo egitumibwa okuweereza abo abagenda okusikira obulokozi.
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall inherit salvation?
