< Bahebera 1 >
1 Erile bogologolo Modimo wa bua le bo rraa rona ka baporofiti ka ditsela di le dintsi tse di farologanyeng (ka diponatshegelo, le ditoro, le e leng ka difatlhogo di lebaganye), o ba bolelela bonnye ka bonnye ka leano la one.
On many past occasions and in many different ways, God spoke to our fathers through the prophets.
2 Mme jaanong mo malatsing ano, o buile le rona ka Morwaa One yo o mo neileng sengwe le sengwe, yo gape ka ene o dirileng lefatshe le sengwe le sengwe se se leng teng. (aiōn )
But in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe. (aiōn )
3 Morwa Modimo o galalela ka kgalalelo ya Modimo, mme gotlhe mo Morwa Modimo a leng gone ebile a go dira, go mo supa fa e le Modimo tota. O tshegeditse lobopo ka nonofo ya gagwe e kgolo ya taolo. Ke ene yo o suleng go re ntlafatsa le go phimola dibe tsa rona tsotlhe tse di neng di kwadilwe, mme morago ga moo a nna fa fatshe ka tlotlo e kgolo fa lotlhakoreng lwa Modimo o mogolo wa legodimo.
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature, upholding all things by His powerful word. After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
4 Jalo a nna mogolo thata mo baengeleng, jaaka go supiwa ke boammaaruri jo bo reng, leina la gagwe ke “Morwa Modimo,” le a neng a le rewa ke Rraagwe, le legolo thata mo maineng a baengele le maina a a supang maemo a bone.
So He became as far superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is excellent beyond theirs.
5 Gonne Modimo ga o ise o ke o reye moengele ope o re, “O Mo-rwaake.” Mme gape erile ka lobaka longwe, fa Morwaa one yo o tsetsweng pele a tla mo lefatsheng, Modimo o ne wa re, “A baengele ba botlhe ba Modimo ba mo obamele.”
For to which of the angels did God ever say: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father”? Or again: “I will be His Father, and He will be My Son”?
And again, when God brings His firstborn into the world, He says: “Let all God’s angels worship Him.”
7 Modimo o bua kaga baengele e le barongwa ba ba bofefo jaaka phefo le jaaka batlhanka ba ba dirilweng ka dikgabo tsa molelo;
Now about the angels He says: “He makes His angels winds, His servants flames of fire.”
8 mme kaga Morwawe a re, “Bogosi jwa gago, Modimo, bo tlaa nna ka bosakhutleng; ditaolo tsa jone ka malatsi otlhe di siame ebile di boammaaruri. (aiōn )
But about the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom. (aiōn )
9 O rata boammaaruri o ila bosula; jalo Modimo, le e leng Modimo wa gago, o goromeleditse boitumelo jo bogolo go feta motho le fa e le mang.”
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You above Your companions with the oil of joy.”
10 Modimo gape o mmiditse “Morena” fa o re, “Morena, mo tshimologong o dirile lefatshe, le magodimo ke tiro ya diatla tsa gago.
And: “In the beginning, O Lord, You laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.
11 Tsotlhe di tlaa nyelelela ruri, mme wena o tlaa tshelela ruri. Di tlaa onala jaaka diaparo tse di kgologolo,
They will perish, but You remain; they will all wear out like a garment.
12 mme letsatsi lengwe o tlaa di phutha o bo o di emisetsa. Mme wena ka sebele ga o kitla o fetoga, le dingwaga tsa gago ga di kitla di khutla.”
You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed; but You remain the same, and Your years will never end.”
13 A mme Modimo o kile wa raya moengele wa re, “Nna fa, fa thoko ga me ka tlotlo go fitlhelela ke ripitla baba ba gago botlhe ka fa tlase ga dinao tsa gago,” fela jaaka o raya Morwa One?
Yet to which of the angels did God ever say: “Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet”?
14 Nnyaa, gonne baengele ke mewa e e rongwang go thusa le go tlhokomela ba ba tshwanetseng go amogela poloko ya One.
Are not the angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?
