اِبْرِنَح 7

1 شالَمَسْیَ راجا سَرْوّوپَرِسْتھَسْییشْوَرَسْیَ یاجَکَشْچَ سَنْ یو نرِپَتِیناں مارَناتْ پْرَتْیاگَتَمْ اِبْراہِیمَں ساکْشاتْکرِتْیاشِشَں گَدِتَوانْ،

This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

2 یَسْمَے چیبْراہِیمْ سَرْوَّدْرَوْیاناں دَشَماںشَں دَتَّوانْ سَ مَلْکِیشیدَکْ سْوَنامْنورْتھینَ پْرَتھَمَتو دھَرْمَّراجَح پَشْچاتْ شالَمَسْیَ راجارْتھَتَح شانْتِراجو بھَوَتِ۔

and Abraham apportioned to him a tenth of everything. First, his name means “king of righteousness.” Then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.”

3 اَپَرَں تَسْیَ پِتا ماتا وَںشَسْیَ نِرْنَیَ آیُشَ آرَمْبھو جِیوَنَسْیَ شیشَشْچَیتیشامْ اَبھاوو بھَوَتِ، اِتّھَں سَ اِیشْوَرَپُتْرَسْیَ سَدرِشِیکرِتَح، سَ تْوَنَنْتَکالَں یاوَدْ یاجَکَسْتِشْٹھَتِ۔

Without father or mother or genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God, he remains a priest for all time.

4 اَتَایواسْماکَں پُورْوَّپُرُشَ اِبْراہِیمْ یَسْمَے لُٹھِتَدْرَوْیاناں دَشَماںشَں دَتَّوانْ سَ کِیدرِکْ مَہانْ تَدْ آلوچَیَتَ۔

Consider how great Melchizedek was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder.

5 یاجَکَتْوَپْراپْتا لیویح سَنْتانا وْیَوَسْتھانُسارینَ لوکیبھْیورْتھَتَ اِبْراہِیمو جاتیبھْیَح سْوِییَبھْراترِبھْیو دَشَماںشَگْرَہَنَسْیادیشَں لَبْدھَوَنْتَح۔

Now the law commands the sons of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, from their brothers—though they too are descended from Abraham.

6 کِنْتْوَسَو یَدْیَپِ تیشاں وَںشاتْ نوتْپَنَّسْتَتھاپِیبْراہِیمو دَشَماںشَں گرِہِیتَوانْ پْرَتِجْنانامْ اَدھِکارِنَمْ آشِشَں گَدِتَواںشْچَ۔

But Melchizedek, who did not trace his descent from Levi, collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

7 اَپَرَں یَح شْرییانْ سَ کْشُدْرَتَرایاشِشَں دَداتِیتْیَتْرَ کوپِ سَنْدیہو ناسْتِ۔

And indisputably, the lesser is blessed by the greater.

8 اَپَرَمْ اِدانِیں یے دَشَماںشَں گرِہْلَنْتِ تے مرِتْیورَدھِینا مانَواح کِنْتُ تَدانِیں یو گرِہِیتَوانْ سَ جِیوَتِیتِپْرَمانَپْراپْتَح۔

In the case of the Levites, mortal men collect the tenth; but in the case of Melchizedek, it is affirmed that he lives on.

9 اَپَرَں دَشَماںشَگْراہِی لیوِرَپِیبْراہِیمْدْوارا دَشَماںشَں دَتَّوانْ ایتَدَپِ کَتھَیِتُں شَکْیَتے۔

And so to speak, Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham.

10 یَتو یَدا مَلْکِیشیدَکْ تَسْیَ پِتَرَں ساکْشاتْ کرِتَوانْ تَدانِیں سَ لیوِح پِتُرُرَسْیاسِیتْ۔

For when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the loin of his ancestor.

11 اَپَرَں یَسْیَ سَمْبَنْدھے لوکا وْیَوَسْتھاں لَبْدھَوَنْتَسْتینَ لیوِییَیاجَکَوَرْگینَ یَدِ سِدّھِح سَمَبھَوِشْیَتْ تَرْہِ ہارونَسْیَ شْرینْیا مَدھْیادْ یاجَکَں نَ نِرُوپْییشْوَرینَ مَلْکِیشیدَکَح شْرینْیا مَدھْیادْ اَپَرَسْیَیکَسْیَ یاجَکَسْیوتّھاپَنَں کُتَ آوَشْیَکَمْ اَبھَوِشْیَتْ؟

Now if perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on this basis the people received the law), why was there still need for another priest to appear—one in the order of Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron?

12 یَتو یاجَکَوَرْگَسْیَ وِنِمَیینَ سُتَراں وْیَوَسْتھایا اَپِ وِنِمَیو جایَتے۔

For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed as well.

13 اَپَرَنْچَ تَدْ واکْیَں یَسْیودّیشْیَں سوپَرینَ وَںشینَ سَںیُکْتاسْتِ تَسْیَ وَںشَسْیَ چَ کوپِ کَداپِ ویدْیاح کَرْمَّ نَ کرِتَوانْ۔

He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar.

14 وَسْتُتَسْتُ یَں وَںشَمَدھِ مُوسا یاجَکَتْوَسْیَیکاں کَتھامَپِ نَ کَتھِتَوانْ تَسْمِنْ یِہُوداوَںشےسْماکَں پْرَبھُ رْجَنْمَ گرِہِیتَوانْ اِتِ سُسْپَشْٹَں۔

For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, a tribe as to which Moses said nothing about priests.

15 تَسْیَ سْپَشْٹَتَرَمْ اَپَرَں پْرَمانَمِدَں یَتْ مَلْکِیشیدَکَح سادرِشْیَوَتاپَرینَ تادرِشینَ یاجَکینودیتَوْیَں،

And this point is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears,

16 یَسْیَ نِرُوپَنَں شَرِیرَسَمْبَنْدھِییَوِدھِیُکْتَیا وْیَوَسْتھایا نَ بھَوَتِ کِنْتْوَکْشَیَجِیوَنَیُکْتَیا شَکْتْیا بھَوَتِ۔

one who has become a priest not by a law of succession, but by the power of an indestructible life.

17 یَتَ اِیشْوَرَ اِدَں ساکْشْیَں دَتَّوانْ، یَتھا، "تْوَں مَکْلِیشیدَکَح شْرینْیاں یاجَکوسِ سَداتَنَح۔ " (aiōn g165)

For it is testified: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)

18 اَنیناگْرَوَرْتِّنو وِدھے دُرْبَّلَتایا نِشْپھَلَتایاشْچَ ہیتورَرْتھَتو وْیَوَسْتھَیا کِمَپِ سِدّھَں نَ جاتَمِتِہیتوسْتَسْیَ لوپو بھَوَتِ۔

So the former commandment is set aside because it was weak and useless

19 یَیا چَ وَیَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ نِکَٹَوَرْتِّنو بھَوامَ ایتادرِشِی شْریشْٹھَپْرَتْیاشا سَںسْتھاپْیَتے۔

(for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.

20 اَپَرَں یِیشُح شَپَتھَں وِنا نَ نِیُکْتَسْتَسْمادَپِ سَ شْریشْٹھَنِیَمَسْیَ مَدھْیَسْتھو جاتَح۔

And none of this happened without an oath. For others became priests without an oath,

21 یَتَسْتے شَپَتھَں وِنا یاجَکا جاتاح کِنْتْوَسَو شَپَتھینَ جاتَح یَتَح سَ اِدَمُکْتَح، یَتھا،

but Jesus became a priest with an oath by the One who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn and will not change His mind: ‘You are a priest forever.’” (aiōn g165)

22 "پَرَمیشَ اِدَں شیپے نَ چَ تَسْمانِّوَرْتْسْیَتے۔ تْوَں مَلْکِیشیدَکَح شْرینْیاں یاجَکوسِ سَداتَنَح۔ " (aiōn g165)

Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.

23 تے چَ بَہَوو یاجَکا اَبھَوَنْ یَتَسْتے مرِتْیُنا نِتْیَسْتھایِتْواتْ نِوارِتاح،

Now there have been many other priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office.

24 کِنْتْوَساوَنَنْتَکالَں یاوَتْ تِشْٹھَتِ تَسْماتْ تَسْیَ یاجَکَتْوَں نَ پَرِوَرْتَّنِییَں۔ (aiōn g165)

But because Jesus lives forever, He has a permanent priesthood. (aiōn g165)

25 تَتو ہیتو رْیے مانَواسْتینیشْوَرَسْیَ سَنِّدھِں گَچّھَنْتِ تانْ سَ شیشَں یاوَتْ پَرِتْراتُں شَکْنوتِ یَتَسْتیشاں کرِتے پْرارْتھَناں کَرْتُّں سَ سَتَتَں جِیوَتِ۔

Therefore He is able to save completely those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to intercede for them.

26 اَپَرَمْ اَسْماکَں تادرِشَمَہایاجَکَسْیَ پْرَیوجَنَماسِیدْ یَح پَوِتْرو ہِںسَکو نِشْکَلَنْکَح پاپِبھْیو بھِنَّح سْوَرْگادَپْیُچِّیکرِتَشْچَ سْیاتْ۔

Such a high priest truly befits us—One who is holy, innocent, undefiled, set apart from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.

27 اَپَرَں مَہایاجَکاناں یَتھا تَتھا تَسْیَ پْرَتِدِنَں پْرَتھَمَں سْوَپاپاناں کرِتے تَتَح پَرَں لوکاناں پاپاناں کرِتے بَلِدانَسْیَ پْرَیوجَنَں ناسْتِ یَتَ آتْمَبَلِدانَں کرِتْوا تَدْ ایکَکرِتْوَسْتینَ سَمْپادِتَں۔

Unlike the other high priests, He does not need to offer daily sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people; He sacrificed for sin once for all when He offered up Himself.

28 یَتو وْیَوَسْتھَیا یے مَہایاجَکا نِرُوپْیَنْتے تے دَورْبَّلْیَیُکْتا مانَواح کِنْتُ وْیَوَسْتھاتَح پَرَں شَپَتھَیُکْتینَ واکْیینَ یو مَہایاجَکو نِرُوپِتَح سو نَنْتَکالارْتھَں سِدّھَح پُتْرَ ایوَ۔ (aiōn g165)

For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever. (aiōn g165)
