VaHebheru 1
1 Kare, Mwari akataura kumadzitateguru edu kubudikidza navaprofita panguva zhinji, uye nenzira dzakasiyana-siyana,
At sundry times and in diuers maners God spake in the olde time to our fathers by the Prophetes:
2 asi mumazuva ano okupedzisira akataura kwatiri nomuMwanakomana wake, waakaita mudyi wenhaka yezvinhu zvose, uye naiyewo waakaita naye nyika. (aiōn g165)
in these last dayes hee hath spoken vnto vs by his Sonne, Whom he hath made heire of al things, by whome also he made the worldes, (aiōn g165)
3 Mwanakomana ndiye chadzera chokubwinya kwaMwari uye ndiye mufananidzo wake chaiwo, anochengeta zvinhu zvose neshoko rake rine simba. Mushure mokunge apedza kunatswa kwezvivi, akagara kurudyi rwamambo kudenga.
Who being the brightnes of the glory, and the ingraued forme of his person, and bearing vp all things by his mightie worde, hath by himselfe purged our sinnes, and sitteth at the right hand of the Maiestie in the highest places,
4 Saka akava mukuru kupfuura vatumwa sezvo zita raakapiwa nhaka yaro rakanyanya kunaka kupfuura ravo.
And is made so much more excellent then the Angels, in as much as hee hath obteined a more excellent Name then they.
5 Nokuti ndoupi pakati pavatumwa, Mwari waakamboti kwaari: “Ndiwe Mwanakomana wangu; nhasi ndava baba vako?” kana kutizve, “Ndichava Baba vake, naiye achava Mwanakomana wangu?”
For vnto which of the Angels saide he at any time, Thou art my Sonne, this day begate I thee? and againe, I will be his Father, and he shalbe my Sonne?
6 Uyezve, Mwari paanouyisa dangwe rake munyika, anoti: “Vatumwa vose vaMwari ngavamunamate.”
And againe, when he bringeth in his first begotten Sonne into the worlde, hee saith, And let all the Angels of God worship him.
7 Achitaura pamusoro pavatumwa anoti, “Anoita vatumwa vake mhepo, varanda vake mirazvo yomoto.”
And of the Angels he saith, He maketh the spirites his messengers, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 Asi pamusoro poMwanakomana anoti, “Chigaro chenyu choushe, imi Mwari, chichagara nokusingaperi-peri, uye kururama kuchava tsvimbo youshe hwenyu. (aiōn g165)
But vnto the Sonne he saith, O God, thy throne is for euer and euer: the scepter of thy kingdome is a scepter of righteousnes. (aiōn g165)
9 Makada kururama uye mukavenga kusarurama; naizvozvo Mwari, Mwari wenyu, akakuisai pamusoro peshamwari dzenyu nokukuzodzai namafuta okufara.”
Thou hast loued righteousnes and hated iniquitie. Wherefore God, eue thy God, hath anointed thee with the oyle of gladnes aboue thy fellowes.
10 Anotizve, “Pakutanga, imi Ishe, makateya nheyo dzenyika, uye matenga ndiwo basa ramaoko enyu.
And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast established the earth, and the heauens are the workes of thine handes.
11 Zvichaparara, asi imi mucharamba muripo; zvichasakara zvose senguo.
They shall perish, but thou doest remaine: and they all shall waxe olde as doeth a garment.
12 Muchazvipeta sejasi; senguo zvichashandurwa. Asi imi munoramba makadaro, uye makore enyu haatozogumi.”
And as a vesture shalt thou folde them vp, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy yeeres shall not faile.
13 Ndoupi pakati pavatumwa akambonzi naMwari: “Gara kurudyi rwangu kusvikira ndaita vavengi vako chitsiko chetsoka dzako?”
Vnto which also of the Angels saide he at any time, Sit at my right hand, til I make thine enemies thy footestoole?
14 Ko, vatumwa vose havasi mweya inoshumira yakatumwa kuzobatsira vaya vachadya nhaka yoruponeso here?
Are they not al ministring spirits, sent forth to minister, for their sakes which shalbe heires of saluation?
