VaHebheru 8
1 Shoko guru pane izvozvi zvatiri kutaura ndiro iri rokuti: Tino muprista mukuru akadai, akagara kurudyi rwechigaro chaIshe kudenga,
Now the sum of the things that have been said is this, that we have such an high-priest, who is sat down at the right hand of the throne of the majesty in the heavens;
2 uye anoshumira muimba tsvene, iyo tabhenakeri chaiyo yakamiswa naIshe, kwete nomunhu.
a minister of holy things, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord hath raised, and not man.
3 Muprista mukuru, mumwe nomumwe, akagadzwa kuti ape zvipo nezvibayiro kuna Mwari, naizvozvo zvakanga zvakafanira kuti uyu ave nechokubayirawo.
For every high-priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; wherefore it was necessary that He also should have something to offer.
4 Dai akanga ari panyika, angadai asina kuva muprista, nokuti vaprista vakanga varipo kare vaibayira zvipo sezvakarehwa nomurayiro.
For if He were on earth, He could not be a priest, seeing there are priests already that offer gifts according to the law:
5 Vaishumira panzvimbo tsvene inova mufananidzo nomumvuri wezviri kudenga. Nokuda kweizvi Mozisi akayambirwa paakanga ava kuvaka tabhenakeri: “Uve nechokwadi kuti waita zvose maererano nomufananidzo wawakaratidzwa mugomo.”
who worship under the representation and shadow of heavenly things; as Moses was ordered by God, when he was about to finish the tabernacle. For see, saith He, that thou make all according to the model shewn thee in the mount.
6 Asi ushumiri hwakapiwa Jesu hwakapfuura hwavo pakunaka sezvo ari murevereri wesungano inopfuura nokunaka pane sungano yakare, uye yakasimbiswa nezvipikirwa zviri nani.
But now He hath obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which is established upon better promises.
7 Nokuti dai pakanga pasina chakaipa nesungano yokutanga pangadai pasina kuwanikwa mukana weimwe sungano.
For if the first covenant had been unexceptionable, there had been no room for a second:
8 Asi Mwari akaona kukanganisa kwavanhu ava akati: “Nguva inouya, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe, yandichaita sungano itsva neimba yaIsraeri, uye neimba yaJudha,
as we see there was, for after complaining of them, He adds, "Behold the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
9 Haichazovi sesungano yandakaita namadzitateguru avo, pandakavabata noruoko kuti ndivabudise kubva muIjipiti, nokuti havana kuramba vakatendeka kusungano yangu, neniwo ndakavasiya, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe.
not according to the covenant which I made with their fathers, in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
10 Iyi ndiyo sungano yandichaita neimba yaIsraeri, mushure menguva iyoyo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe. Ndichaisa mirayiro yangu mundangariro dzavo, uye ndichainyora pamwoyo yavo. Ndichava Mwari wavo, uye vachava vanhu vangu.
But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their mind, and I will inscribe them on their hearts; and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people.
11 Hakuna munhu achazodzidzisa muvakidzani wake, kana munhu kudzidzisa hama yake, achiti, ‘Ziva Ishe,’ nokuti vose vachandiziva, kubva kumuduku kusvikira kumukuru pakati pavo.
And they shall not teach every one his neighbour, and every one his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the lest even to the greatest of them.
12 Nokuti ndichavaregerera zvakaipa zvavo uye handizorangaririzve zvivi zvavo.”
For I will forgive their crimes, and their sins and their iniquities I will remember no more."
13 Nokuti akati sungano iyi “itsva,” ipapo akashayisa basa yokutanga; zvino chinhu chisisina basa uye chava chekare chichaparara nokukurumidza.
Now by saying, a new covenant, He hath antiquated the first: and what is antiquated, and groweth old, is near it's exit.
