VaHebheru 10

1 Murayiro unongova mumvuri chete wezvinhu zvakanaka zvinouya, kwete izvo chaizvo. Nokuda kwaizvozvo haungagoni kuita kuti avo vanoswedera, kuti vanamate gore rimwe nerimwe, naizvo zvibayiro zvimwe chetezvo zvavanoramba vachibayira kuna Mwari, vakwaniswe.

FOR the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.

2 Dai zvaigona kudaro, zvingadai zvisina kupera kubayirwa here?

For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.

3 Nokuti vanonamata vangadai vakanatswa kamwe chete zvikapera, uye vangadai vasina kuzonzwazve mhosva yezvivi zvavo gore roga roga,

But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.

4 nokuti hazvigoni kuti ropa renzombe nerembudzi ribvise zvivi.

For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

5 Naizvozvo Kristu, paakauya munyika muno, akati: “Chibayiro nechipo hamuna kuzvifarira, asi muviri wamakandigadzirira;

Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

6 zvibayiro zvinopiswa nezvibayiro zvezvivi hamuna kufadzwa nazvo.

In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

7 Ipapo ini ndakati, ‘Ndiri pano, mubhuku rakapetwa makanyorwa nezvangu, ndauya kuti ndiite kuda kwenyu, imi Mwari.’”

Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me, ) to do thy will, O God.

8 Pakutanga akati, “Zvibayiro nezvipiriso, zvipiriso zvinopiswa, nezvipiriso zvezvivi hamuna kuzvida, kana kufadzwa nazvo (kunyange zvazvo murayiro waida kuti zviitwe).”

Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

9 Ipapo iye akati, “Ndiri pano, ndauya kuzoita kuda kwenyu.” Akabvisa chokutanga kuti aise chechipiri.

Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

10 Uye nokuda kwenyu ikoku, tichaitwa vatsvene kubudikidza nechibayiro chomuviri waJesu Kristu chakabayirwa kamwe chete zvikapera.

By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 Zuva nezuva muprista mumwe nomumwe aimira achiita ushumiri hwake nokuramba achibayira zvibayiro zvimwe chetezvo, zvisingatongogoni kubvisa zvivi.

And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:

12 Asi muprista uyu akati abayira chibayiro chimwe chete chenguva dzose, akagara kurudyi rwaMwari.

But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

13 Kubva panguva iyoyo anomirira kusvikira muvengi wake aitwa chitsiko chetsoka dzake,

From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

14 nokuti nechibayiro chimwe chete akaita kuti vaya vari kuitwa vatsvene vakwaniswe nokusingaperi.

For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

15 Mweya Mutsvene anotipupurirawo pamusoro peizvi. Kutanga anoti:

Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,

16 “Iyi ndiyo sungano yandichaita navo mushure menguva iyoyo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe. Ndichaisa mirayiro yangu mumwoyo yavo, uye ndichainyora mundangariro dzavo.”

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

17 Ipapo anotizve: “Zvivi zvavo nokudarika kwavo handizozvirangarirezve.”

And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

18 Zvino kana izvi zvaregererwa, hakuchisina chimwezve chibayiro chezvivi.

Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

19 Naizvozvo, hama, zvatinotsunga kuti tipinde paNzvimbo Tsvene neropa raJesu,

Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,

20 nenzira itsva uye ino upenyu yatakazarurirwa kubudikidza nechidzitiro chinova muviri wake,

By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

21 uye sezvo tino muprista mukuru pamusoro pemba yaMwari,

And having an high priest over the house of God;

22 ngatiswederei kuna Mwari nomwoyo wechokwadi nokutendeka kwakasimba kwazvo, nemwoyo yakasaswa kuti tinatswe kubva pahana yakaipa uye miviri yedu yakashambwa nemvura yakachena.

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

23 Ngatibatisisei tariro yatinopupura, tisingazungunuswi, nokuti iye akapikira akatendeka.

Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised; )

24 Uye ngatirangarirei kuti tingakurudzirana sei kuti tive norudo namabasa akanaka.

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:

25 Tisarega kuungana sezvinoita vamwe, asi tikurudzirane, zvikuru sei sezvamunoona kuti Zuva roswedera.

Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

26 Nokuti kana tikaramba tichitadza tichida, kana takambogamuchira ruzivo rwechokwadi, hakuchisinazve chimwe chibayiro chezvivi,

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

27 asi kungomirira tichitya kutongwa nokutsamwa kunopfuta somoto, kuchapedza vavengi vaMwari.

But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

28 Munhu wose akaramba murayiro waMozisi akafa asinganzwirwi tsitsi pamberi pezvapupu zviviri kana zvitatu.

He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:

29 Ko, munofunga kuti munhu, akatsika pasi petsoka dzake Mwanakomana waMwari uye akatora ropa resungano iri rakamuita mutsvene sechinhu chisiri chitsvene uye akatuka Mweya wenyasha, anofanira kurangwa zvikuru sei?

Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

30 Nokuti tinomuziva iye akati, “Kutsiva ndokwangu; ini ndicharipira,” uyezve, “Ishe achatonga vanhu vake.”

For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

31 Chinhu chinotyisa kuwira mumaoko aMwari mupenyu.

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

32 Rangarirai mazuva okutanga mushure mokugamuchira chiedza, amakatsunga pakurwa kukuru mukutambudzika.

But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;

33 Pane dzimwe nguva makatukwa uye mukatambudzwa pachena; pane dzimwe nguva makagovana navo vakaitirwawo izvozvo.

Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.

34 Makanzwira tsitsi avo vakanga vari mutorongo mukagamuchira nomufaro kupambwa kwenhumbi dzenyu, nokuti maiziva kuti imi pachenyu makanga mune pfuma yakapfuura nokunaka uye inogara.

For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.

35 Naizvozvo regai kurasa kusatya kwenyu, kuno mubayiro mukuru.

Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

36 Munofanira kutsungirira kuitira kuti kana maita kuda kwaMwari mugogamuchira zvaakavimbisa.

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

37 Nokuti kanguva kaduku duku kasara, “Iye anouya, achauya, asinganonoki.

For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.

38 Asi akarurama wangu achararama nokutenda. Uye kana akadzokera shure, handizofadzwi naye.”

Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

39 Asi isu hatisi ivo vokudzokera shure, vanoparadzwa, asi tiri vokutenda vanoponeswa.

But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
