Waebulaniya 8
1 Su shitwatira sha mana ndo ashi shatulonga, twenga twanayu mtambika mkulu gwa ntambu ayi, mweni kalikali uwega wa kumliwu mwa shibanta sha Utuwa sha Ukulu kumpindi.
And the sum concerning the things spoken of [is]: we have such a chief priest, who did sit down at the right hand of the throne of the greatness in the heavens,
2 Yomberi kankutenda lihengu lya Mtambika Mkulu pahala pananagala nentu, yani mngati mwa lipamanda lilii lya nakaka lyalinyawitwi na Mtuwa, kumbiti na muntu ndiri.
of the holy places a servant, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord did set up, and not man,
3 Kila Mtambika Mkulu kasyagulwa kumlavilira Mlungu malaviwu na tambiku, na hangu mtambika mkulu ayu mpaka nayomberi kaweri na shintu cha kulaviya.
for every chief priest to offer both gifts and sacrifices is appointed, whence [it is] necessary for this one to have also something that he may offer;
4 Handa yomberi mekaweri gwa pasipanu mekaweri ndiri nakamu mtambika, tembera kwana watambika wamonga yawalaviya tambiku kulawirana na Malagaliru Mlungu gakamupananiti Musa.
for if, indeed, he were upon earth, he would not be a priest — (there being the priests who are offering according to the law, the gifts,
5 Weni utambika wawu uweriti mfanu na shivuni sha galii yagawera kumpindi. Toziya Musa pakaweriti sambira kulinyawa lipamanda lilii, Mlungu kamgambiriti, “Gunyawi kila shintu ntambu yanukulanguziyiti shipindi paguweriti kulugongu kulii.”
who unto an example and shadow do serve of the heavenly things, as Moses hath been divinely warned, being about to construct the tabernacle, for 'See (saith He) thou mayest make all things according to the pattern that was shewn to thee in the mount;') —
6 Kumbiti vinu Yesu wampanana lihengu lya utambika yawuwera uherepa kuliku wa womberi, su kawera mkolaniziya wa lipatanu liherepa lyakalyanjiti kwa malagilu gaherepa.
and now he hath obtained a more excellent service, how much also of a better covenant is he mediator, which on better promises hath been sanctioned,
7 Toziya handa lipatanu lilii lya kwanja meliweri lyahera likosa, meliweri ndiri na nfiru ya lipatanu lya pili.
for if that first were faultless, a place would not have been sought for a second.
8 Kumbiti Mlungu kawawona na makosa pakalongiti, “Mtuwa kalonga, mashaka gankwiza, Peni hantendi lipatanu lya syayi na wantu wa Israeli na wantu wa Yuda.
For finding fault, He saith to them, 'Lo, days come, saith the Lord, and I will complete with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah, a new covenant,
9 Lipatanu ali haliweri ndiri gambira lilii lyalitenditwi na wambuyi wawu lishaka panuwakoliti liwoku lyawu, nuwalonguziyiti kulawa Misri. Waweriti ndiri wajimirika mulipatanu lyangu, na hangu neni nuwashera ndiri.
not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, in the day of My taking [them] by their hand, to bring them out of the land of Egypt — because they did not remain in My covenant, and I did not regard them, saith the Lord, —
10 Na ali ndo lipatanu hanulitendi na wantu wa Israeli, mashaka gankwiza, hantuli malagaliru gangu mumahala mwawu, na kulilemba mumyoyu mwawu, na neni haweri Mlungu gwawu, na womberi hawaweri wantu waneni.
because this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel, after those days, saith the Lord, giving My laws into their mind, and upon their hearts I will write them, and I will be to them for a God, and they shall be to Me for a people;
11 Kwahera muntu yakamfunda muyaguwi, ama hakamgambiri muyaguwi, ‘Gummani Mtuwa.’ Toziya woseri hawamani neni, wantu yawamanika na wantu yawamanika ndiri.
and they shall not teach each his neighbour, and each his brother, saying, Know thou the Lord, because they shall all know Me from the small one of them unto the great one of them,
12 Hanuwalekiziyi matendu gawu gadoda, na hapeni nuviholi kayi vidoda vyawu.”
because I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will remember no more;' —
13 Pakalongiti kwa lipatanu lya syayi, Mlungu kalisakaziya lilii lya kwanja, na shoseri shashisakaziwa na kuwera shigona sambira hashiwuki.
in the saying 'new,' He hath made the first old, and what doth become obsolete and is old [is] nigh disappearing.
