Vaebulania 5
1 Kila Mteta Mkulu wa Chapanga ihaguliwa pagati ya vandu ipewa lihengu la kukita mambu ga Chapanga pahali pa vandu, kuwusa luteta lwa kuhinjwa hinyama na luteta lungi.
For every high priest, having been taken from among men, is appointed on behalf of men toward the things which pertain to God, so that he may offer gifts and sacrifices on behalf of sins;
2 Muni mwene ndi mngolongondi namuna ndalindali, ihotola kuvahengela lipyana vala vangammanya na vevihotola na kukongiwa.
he is able to commiserate with those who are ignorant and who wander astray, because he himself is also encompassed by infirmity.
3 Ndava yeniyo iganikiwa kuwusa luteta lwa kuhinja hinyama, lepi ndava ya vandu ndu, nambu mewa ndava ya mwene kumbudila Chapanga.
And because of this, he also must make such offerings for sins even for himself, in the same manner as for the people.
4 Kawaka mundu mweakujipela mwene utopesa wa kuvya Mteta Mkulu. Nambu Chapanga akumhagula kuvya Mteta Mkulu ngati Aloni cheahaguliwi.
Neither does anyone take up this honor himself, but rather he who is called by God, just as Aaron was.
5 Mewawa Kilisitu, nakujipela mwene utopesa wa kuvya Mteta Mkulu, pahali paki Chapanga amhagwili na kujova, “Veve ndi Mwana vangu, nene lelu nivii Dadi waku.”
Thus, even Christ did not glorify himself, so as to become High Priest, but instead, it was God who said to him: “You are my Son. Today I have begotten you.”
6 Mewawa ajovili, pandu pangi mu Mayandiku Gamsopi, “Veve ndi Mteta wa magono goha gangali mwishu, ngati cheuvili uteta wa Melikisedeki.” (aiōn g165)
And similarly, he says in another place: “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)
7 Yesu petamili pamulima, amyupili Chapanga kwa luyupu na maganu na kuvemba kwa maholi, mweihotola kumsangula kuhuma mu lifwa. Chapanga amuyuwanili, ndava avi kuyidakila kwaki na ungolongondi.
It is Christ who, in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offered prayers and supplications to the One who was able to save him from death, and who was heard because of his reverence.
8 Nambu, pamonga avi Mwana wa Chapanga, amanyili kumyidakila Chapanga kwa mang'ahiso gegamkolili.
And although, certainly, he is the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things that he suffered.
9 Peamali kuvya mkamilifu mukila njila, avi utumbula wa usangula wa magono goha gangali mwishu kwa vandu voha vevakumyidakila, (aiōnios g166)
And having reached his consummation, he was made, for all who are obedient to him, the cause of eternal salvation, (aiōnios g166)
10 kangi Chapanga amuhagwili kuvya Mteta Mkulu kwa luhumu lwa Melikisedeki.
having been called by God to be the High Priest, according to the order of Melchizedek.
11 Tivii na gamahele ga kujova ndava ya lijambu ili, nambu yinonopa kuvadandaulila, ndava nyenye mwiyuyuka lepi kumanya.
Our message about him is great, and difficult to explain when speaking, because you have been made feeble when listening.
12 Chakaka lukumbi ulu, mwiganikiwa kuvya vawula, muni lukumbi lutali lupitili, nambu mwakona mwigana mundu yungi avawula mawuliwu ga kutumbula ga ujumbi wa Chapanga. Pahali pa kulya chakulya chiyumu, nyenye mwinyong'a mavele ngati vana vang'enya!
For even though it is the time when you ought to be teachers, you are still lacking, so that you must be taught the things that are the basic elements of the Word of God, and so you have been made like those who are in need of milk, and not of solid food.
13 Ndava mundu yeyoha mweigana kunyong'a mavele akona mwana mng'enya, ihotola lepi kumanya mawuliwu ga kumganisa Chapanga.
For anyone who is still feeding on milk is still unskillful in the Word of Justice; for he is like an infant.
14 Nambu chakulya chiyumu ndi ndava ya vandu vevakangili, ndava vajiwulili vene kuyendelela kuhenga ago, vahotola kulola ulekenganu pagati ya gabwina na gahakau.
But solid food is for those who are mature, for those who, by practice, have sharpened their mind, so as to discern good from evil.
