< Hiperu 9 >
1 Na, ko te kawenata tuatahi he tikanga karakia ano ona, me tetahi wahi tapu, he mea mo te ao nei.
Now indeed even the first had ordinances of divine service, and an earthly sanctuary.
2 I hanga hoki tetahi tapenakara, te tuatahi, i reira te turanga rama, me te tepu, me te taro aroaro, tona ingoa ko te Wahi Tapu:
For a tabernacle was prepared. In the first part were the lampstand, the table, and the show bread; which is called the Holy Place.
3 I tua atu hoki o te rua o nga arai, ko te tapenakara, e huaina ana ko te Wahi Tino Tapu.
After the second curtain was the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,
4 He tahu kakara koura i reira me te aaka o te kawenata, he mea whakakikoria nga wahi katoa ki te koura, i roto ano i taua mea ko te oko koura i te mana, ko te tokotoko o Arona i pihi ra, ko nga papa o te kawenata:
having a golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a gold jar containing the manna, Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;
5 I runga atu i tenei ko nga Kerupima o te kororia, e whakamarumaru ana i te taumata o te whakamarietanga: e kore aua mea e taea te korero takitahi inaianei.
and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, of which things we cannot speak now in detail.
6 Heoi ka ata rite nei enei mea, ka haereere nga tohunga i nga wa katoa ki te tapenakara tuatahi, i a ratou e mahi ana i nga ritenga karakia;
Now these things having been thus prepared, the cohanim go in continually into the first tabernacle, performing their duties.
7 Ki te tuarua ia kotahi ano te haerenga atu i te tau, o te tohunga nui anake, kihai ano i mahue nga toto: i tapaea atu hoki mona, mo nga he ano o te iwi:
But into the second the cohan gadol alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.
8 Ko ta te Wairua Tapu hoki tenei i whakaatu ai, ki te huarahi ki te wahi tino tapu i whakakitea mai, i te mea e tu ana ano te tapenakara tuatahi:
The Ruach ha-Kodesh is indicating this, that the way into the Holy Place was not yet revealed while the first tabernacle was still standing;
9 He ahua tera mo tenei wa nei, e tapaea ai nga whakahere me nga patunga tapu, kahore nei e tau hei mea i te tangata nana tera mahi kia tino tika te hinengaro;
which is a symbol of the present age, where gifts and sacrifices are offered that are incapable, concerning the conscience, of making the worshipper perfect;
10 Heoi ano o era he kainga, he inumanga, he horoinga maha, he tikanga na te kikokiko, he mea whakarite mai, a taea noatia te wa whakatikatika.
but deal only with foods and drinks and various washings; they are regulations for the flesh imposed until the time of setting things right.
11 I te taenga mai ia o te Karaiti hei tohunga nui mo nga mea pai e whai mai ana i muri, he nui atu ano hoki, he tino tika te tapenakara, ehara i te mea hanga na te ringaringa, ara ehara i te mea no tenei hanganga:
But the Messiah having come as a cohen hagadol of the good things that have come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,
12 Ehara ano hoki i te mea no nga koati nga toto, no nga kuao kau ranei, engari nona ake nga toto i haere atu ai ia, kotahi tonu te haerenga, ki roto ki te wahi tino tapu, i te mea ka whiwhi ki tana mea hei hoki mai i a tatou mo ake tonu atu. (aiōnios )
nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the Holy Place, having obtained everlasting redemption. (aiōnios )
13 Ki te mea hoki ma nga toto o nga puru, o nga koati, ma nga pungarehu ranei o te kuao kau, he mea tauhiuhi ki te hunga kua poke, ka tapu ai, ka ma ai te kikokiko:
For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness of the flesh:
14 Tera atu to nga toto o te Karaiti, nana nei i tapae atu a ia ano, he mea kohakore, ki te Atua, i runga i ta te Wairua ora tonu; ma era e ma ai o koutou hinengaro i nga mahi mate, e mahi ai koutou ki te Atua ora. (aiōnios )
how much more will the blood of Messiah, who through the eternal Ruach offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (aiōnios )
15 Mo konei ano ia i meinga ai hei Takawaenga mo te kawenata hou, kia mate ai ia hei utu mo nga he i raro i te kawenata tuatahi, kia riro ai i te hunga e karangatia ana te wahi tuturu mo ratou i korerotia i mua. (aiōnios )
For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance. (aiōnios )
16 He ohaki hoki, ko te mea e whai tikanga ai ko te matenga o te tangata nana i whakatakoto.
Now where there is a will, the death of the one who made it must be proven.
17 Kia mate hoki te tangata, katahi ka whai mana te ohaki: ka u tonu ranei i te mea e ora ana te tangata nana i whakatakoto?
For a will is in force where there has been death, for it is never in force while the one who made it lives.
18 Koia hoki te mahue ai te toto i te whakatapunga o te kawenata tuatahi.
Therefore even the first has not been dedicated without blood.
19 I te mutunga hoki o ta Mohi korero i nga tikanga katoa ki te iwi katoa, hei whakarite i ta te ture, ka mau ia ki nga toto o nga kuao kau, o nga koati, ki te wai, ki te huruhuru whero, ki te hihopa, a tauhiuhia ana e ia te pukapuka, me te iwi kat oa;
For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the Law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the scroll itself and all the people,
20 Me tana ki ano, Ko nga toto enei o te kawenata kua whakaakona mai nei e te Atua ki a koutou.
saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you."
21 I tauhiuhia ano hoki e ia ki nga toto te tapenakara, me nga oko katoa mo te mahi minita.
Moreover he sprinkled the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry in like manner with the blood.
22 I runga hoki i te ture, e tata ana ka kiia, e purea ana nga mea katoa ki te toto; ki te kahore hoki he ringihanga toto, kahore he murunga hara.
According to the Law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
23 Koia i tika ai kia purea ki enei nga ritenga o nga mea i te rangi; ko nga tino mea ia o te rangi ki nga patunga tapu, pai rawa atu i enei.
It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24 Ehara hoki i te mea kua tomo a te Karaiti ki te wahi tapu i hanga e te ringaringa, ki te tauira o te tino wahi; engari ki te tino rangi pu ano, puta ai ki te aroaro o te Atua, mo tatou:
For Messiah hasn't entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;
25 Ehara ano i te mea kia maha ana tapaenga i a ia, kia pera me te tohunga nui e haere nei ki roto ki te wahi tino tapu i tenei tau, i tenei tau, no etahi atu ano hoki nga toto;
nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the cohen hagadol enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,
26 Penei kia maha he mamaetanga mona, he mea timata i te hanganga ra ano o te ao; tena ko tenei kotahi tonu tona whakakitenga mai i te mutunga o nga wa, hei whakakahore i te hara, i a ia ka meinga hei patunga tapu. (aiōn )
or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. (aiōn )
27 Na kua takoto nei te tikanga mo nga tangata kia kotahi tonu te matenga, a muri iho i tenei ko te whakawa;
Inasmuch as it is appointed for people to die once, and after this, judgment,
28 Waihoki ko te Karaiti, kotahi tonu tona tapaenga atu hei pikau i nga hara o te tini, a tenei ake ko te rua o ona whakakitenga mai, kahore ano he hara, hei whakaora i te hunga e tatari ana ki a ia.
so Messiah also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are eagerly waiting for him for salvation.
