Abaebbulaniya 10

1 Amateeka kisiikirize busiikirize eky’ebirungi ebigenda okujja, go ku bwagwo tegamala, kubanga ssaddaaka ezo ze zimu eza buli mwaka ze bawaayo obutayosa ezitayinza kutukuza abo abaziwaayo.

For the law, having a shadow of the coming good things, not the image itself of the things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually yearly, perfect those who approach.

2 Ssaddaaka ezo zandibadde tezikyaweebwayo, kubanga abaaziwaayo, omulundi ogumu gwandibamaze okubatukuza, ne bataddayo kweraliikirira olw’ebibi byabwe.

Since, would they not indeed have ceased being offered, on account of the worshippers once purged having no longer any conscience of sins?

3 Naye ssaddaaka eza buli mwaka zaabajjukizanga ebibi byabwe.

But in these [there is] a calling to mind of sins yearly.

4 Kubanga omusaayi gw’ente ennume n’embuzi tegusobola kuggyawo bibi.

For blood of bulls and goats [is] incapable of taking away sins.

5 Noolwekyo Kristo bwe yali ng’ajja mu nsi kyeyava agamba nti, “Ssaddaaka n’ebiweebwayo tewabyagala. Naye wanteekerateekera omubiri.

Wherefore coming into the world he says, Sacrifice and offering thou willedst not; but thou hast prepared me a body.

6 Ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’ekibi, tewabisiima.

Thou tookest no pleasure in burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin.

7 Kyennava njogera nti, ‘Nzuno, nga bwe kyawandiikibwa mu mizingo gy’ebyawandiikibwa: Nzize okukola by’oyagala, ng’Ebyawandiikibwa bwe binjogerako.’”

Then I said, Lo, I come (in [the] roll of the book it is written of me) to do, O God, thy will.

8 Nga bwe kyogera waggulu nti, Ssaddaaka n’ebiweebwayo, n’ebiweebwayo ebiramba ebyokebwa, n’ebiweebwayo olw’ebibi tewabyagala so tewabisiima, so nga biweebwayo ng’amateeka bwe galagira,

Above, saying Sacrifices and offerings and burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou willedst not, neither tookest pleasure in (which are offered according to the law);

9 n’alyoka agamba nti, “Nzuuno nzize okukola by’oyagala.” Noolwekyo aggyawo enkola esooka alyoke anyweze enkola eyookubiri.

then he said, Lo, I come to do thy will. He takes away the first that he may establish the second;

10 Twatukuzibwa olw’okwagala kwe, omubiri gwa Yesu Kristo bwe gwaweebwayo omulundi ogumu ku lwaffe ffenna.

by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 Buli kabona ayimirira buli lunaku ng’aweereza, n’awaayo ssaddaaka mu ngeri y’emu, ezitayinza kuggyawo bibi,

And every priest stands daily ministering, and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

12 naye Kristo bwe yamala okuwaayo ssaddaaka ey’emirembe gyonna, olw’ebibi, n’alyoka atuula ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogwa Katonda.

But he, having offered one sacrifice for sins, sat down in perpetuity at [the] right hand of God,

13 Okuva mu kiseera kino alindirira abalabe be bafuulibwe entebe y’ebigere bye.

waiting from henceforth until his enemies be set [for the] footstool of his feet.

14 Kubanga olw’ekiweebwayo ekyo ekimu, abaatukuzibwa yabawa obutuukirivu obw’emirembe gyonna.

For by one offering he has perfected in perpetuity the sanctified.

15 Mwoyo Mutukuvu naye akikakasa bw’ayogera nti,

And the Holy Spirit also bears us witness [of it]; for after what was said:

16 “Eno y’endagaano gye ndikola nabo, oluvannyuma lw’ennaku ezo, bw’ayogera Mukama. Nditeeka amateeka gange ku mitima gyabwe, era ndiwandiika amateeka gange mu myoyo gyabwe.”

This [is] the covenant which I will establish towards them after those days, saith [the] Lord: Giving my laws into their hearts, I will write them also in their understandings;

17 Ayongerako kino nti, “Sirijjukira nate bibi byabwe newaakubadde obujeemu bwabwe.”

and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will never remember any more.

18 Naye kaakano awali okusonyiyibwa ebintu ebyo, waba tewakyali kyetaagisa kuwaayo kiweebwayo olw’ebibi.

But where there [is] remission of these, [there is] no longer a sacrifice for sin.

19 Kale abooluganda nga bwe tulina obuvumu okuyingira mu Watukuvu w’Awatukuvu olw’omusaayi gwa Yesu,

Having therefore, brethren, boldness for entering into the [holy of] holies by the blood of Jesus,

20 eyatuggulirawo ekkubo eriggya era eddamu eriyita mu lutimbe, gwe mubiri gwe,

the new and living way which he has dedicated for us through the veil, that is, his flesh,

21 kale nga bwe tulina Kabona Asinga Obukulu nga y’afuga ennyumba ya Katonda,

and [having] a great priest over the house of God,

22 tusembere awali Katonda n’omwoyo ogw’amazima ogujjudde okukkiriza nga tulina emitima egitukuzibbwa okuva mu ndowooza embi, era nga n’emibiri gyaffe ginaazibbwa n’amazzi amatukuvu.

let us approach with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, sprinkled as to our hearts from a wicked conscience, and washed as to our body with pure water.

23 Kale tunyweze essuubi lye twatula nga tetusagaasagana, kubanga eyasuubiza mwesigwa,

Let us hold fast the confession of the hope unwavering, (for he [is] faithful who has promised; )

24 era tussengayo omwoyo buli muntu eri munne, nga twekubiriza mu kwagala ne mu kukola ebikolwa ebirungi.

and let us consider one another for provoking to love and good works;

25 Tuleme kulekayo kukuŋŋaana, ng’abamu bwe bakola, naye buli muntu agumye munne, na ddala nga bwe mulaba nti, Olunaku lw’okudda kwa Mukama waffe lusembedde.

not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the custom [is] with some; but encouraging [one another], and by so much the more as ye see the day drawing near.

26 Singa tukola ebibi mu bugenderevu, nga tumaze okumanya amazima, waba tewakyaliwo ssaddaaka eweebwayo olw’ekibi.

For where we sin wilfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains any sacrifice for sins,

27 Wabula ekiba kisigadde kwe kulindirira okusalirwa omusango ogw’ekibonerezo eky’omuliro ogw’amaanyi ogugenda okumalawo abalabe ba Katonda.

but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and heat of fire about to devour the adversaries.

28 Omuntu yenna eyajeemeranga amateeka ga Musa yattibwanga awatali kusaasirwa, bwe waabangawo abajulirwa babiri oba basatu abamulumiriza.

Any one that has disregarded Moses' law dies without mercy on [the testimony of] two or three witnesses:

29 Noolwekyo omuntu alinnyirira Omwana wa Katonda, era n’omusaayi gw’endagaano ogunaazaako ebibi n’aguyisa ng’ogwa bulijjo, era n’anyoomoola Omwoyo ow’ekisa, talibonerezebwa n’obukambwe obusingawo?

of how much worse punishment, think ye, shall he be judged worthy who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and esteemed the blood of the covenant, whereby he has been sanctified, common, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

30 Kubanga tumumanyi oyo eyagamba nti, “Okuwoolera eggwanga kwange. Nze ndisasula.” Era nti, “Mukama y’aliramula abantu be.”

For we know him that said, To me [belongs] vengeance; I will recompense, saith the Lord: and again, The Lord shall judge his people.

31 Kintu kya ntiisa okugwa mu mikono gya Katonda omulamu!

[It is] a fearful thing falling into [the] hands of [the] living God.

32 Mujjukire ennaku ez’edda bwe mwategeera Kristo, ne mugumiikiriza okubonyaabonyezebwa okw’amaanyi.

But call to mind the earlier days in which, having been enlightened, ye endured much conflict of sufferings;

33 Oluusi mwavumibwanga era ne muyigganyizibwa mu lwatu, ate olulala ne mussa kimu n’abo abaabonaabona nga mmwe.

on the one hand, when ye were made a spectacle both in reproaches and afflictions; and on the other, when ye became partakers with those who were passing through them.

34 Mwalumirwa wamu n’abasibe, era mwagumiikiriza n’essanyu bwe mwanyagibwako ebyammwe kubanga mwamanya nti mulina ebisinga obulungi era eby’olubeerera ebibalindiridde.

For ye both sympathised with prisoners and accepted with joy the plunder of your goods, knowing that ye have for yourselves a better substance, and an abiding one.

35 Kale munywererenga ku buvumu bwammwe bwe mulina, obuliko empeera ennene.

Cast not away therefore your confidence, which has great recompense.

36 Kubanga kibasaanira okugumiikiriza nga mukola Katonda by’ayagala mulyoke mufune ebyo bye yasuubiza.

For ye have need of endurance in order that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise.

37 Wasigadde akaseera katono nnyo, oyo ow’okujja ajje era talirwa.

For yet a very little while he that comes will come, and will not delay.

38 Omutuukirivu wange, anaabanga mulamu lwa kukkiriza, kyokka bw’adda emabega simusanyukira.

But the just shall live by faith; and, if he draw back, my soul does not take pleasure in him.

39 Naye ffe tetuli ba kudda mabega mu kuzikirira, wabula tulina okukkiriza okunywevu okutuleetera okulokoka.

But we are not drawers back to perdition, but of faith to saving [the] soul.
