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 good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.

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

Or else would not they have ceased to be offered, because the worshippers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?

3 Naye ssaddaaka eza buli mwaka zaabajjukizanga ebibi byabwe.

But in those sacrifices there is yearly reminder of sins.

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

For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.

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

Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, "Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me.

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

Whole burnt offerings and sin-offerings you took no pleasure in.

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

Then I said, 'Look, I have come. It is written about me in the scroll of a book; to do your will, God.'"

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,

Previously saying, "Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sin-offerings you did not desire, nor took 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, "Look, I have come to do your 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 (the) Messiah once for all.

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

Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and often offering 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 this one, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God;

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

from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet.

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

For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

15 Mwoyo Mutukuvu naye akikakasa bw’ayogera nti,

The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,

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 that I will make with them: 'After those days,' says the Lord, 'I will put my laws on their hearts, I will also write them on their minds.'"

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

"And I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more."

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

Now where forgiveness of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

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

Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,

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

by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the curtain, that is to say, 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 draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water,

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

let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

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

Let us consider how to motivate one another 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 our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching.

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

For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a 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 a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.

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

Anyone who disregards the Law of Moses dies without compassion on the word 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?

How much worse punishment, do you think, will he be judged worthy of, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, 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 who said, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay." Again, "The Lord will judge his people."

31 Kintu kya ntiisa okugwa mu mikono gya Katonda omulamu!

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

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

But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings;

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

partly, being exposed to insults and abuse in public, and sometimes you came to share with others who were treated in the same way.

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

For you both had compassion on them that were in chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an enduring one.

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

Therefore do not throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.

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

For you need patient endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

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

"For in just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay.

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

But the righteous will live by faith, and if he holds back, my soul has no pleasure in him."

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

But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.
