1 Mmere a atwa mu no, na Onyankopɔn nam akwan ahorow bebree so fa adiyifo so kasa kyerɛ yɛn mpanyimfo no.
God, who, at sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, last of all,
2 Mmom, mmere a edi akyiri no de, ɔnam ne Ba no so akasa akyerɛ yɛn. Ɔyɛ obi a Onyankopɔn nam ne so bɔɔ wiase. Na ɔno na Onyankopɔn ayi no sɛ awiei no, nneɛma nyinaa bɛyɛ ne de. (aiōn g165)
In these days hath spoken to us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the world. (aiōn g165)
3 Ɔnam hyerɛn a Onyankopɔn anuonyam hyerɛn no so haran. Ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn sɛso pɛpɛɛpɛ, na ɔde nʼasɛm a tumi wɔ mu no so wiase mu. Ɔtew nnipa ho fii wɔn bɔne mu wiei no, ɔtenaa Otumfo Nyankopɔn nifa so wɔ ɔsoro.
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the figure of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, making purgation of sins, sitteth on the right hand of the majesty on high.
4 Ɛno nti ɔyɛɛ ɔkɛse sen abɔfo no, efisɛ din a Onyankopɔn de too no no yɛ kɛse sen wɔn de no.
Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath inherited a more excellent name than they.
5 Efisɛ Onyankopɔn nso anka ankyerɛ nʼabɔfo no mu biara se, “Woyɛ me Ba; nnɛ mayɛ wʼAgya.” Na wanka ankyerɛ ɔbɔfo biara se, “Mɛyɛ wʼAgya na woayɛ me Ba.”
For to which of the angels hath he said at any time, Thou art my Son, today have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
6 Bere a Onyankopɔn pɛɛ sɛ ɔsoma nʼabakan no ba wiase no, ɔsan kae se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn abɔfo nyinaa som no.”
And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith: And let all the angels of God adore him.
7 Asɛm a Onyankopɔn ka faa abɔfo no ho ne sɛ, “Onyankopɔn soma nʼabɔfo sɛ mframa, na ɔsoma nʼasomfo sɛ gyaframa.”
And to the angels indeed he saith: He that maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 Nea ɛfa Ɔba no ho no, Onyankopɔn kae se, “Ao, Onyankopɔn, wʼahengua bɛtena hɔ daa nyinaa; wʼAhenni yɛ atɛntrenee. (aiōn g165)
But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of justice is the sceptre of thy kingdom. (aiōn g165)
9 Wodɔ trenee, na wukyi bɔne, ɛno nti Onyankopɔn, wo Nyankopɔn no, de wo asi wo mfɛfo so, na ɔde anigye ngo asra wo.”
Thou hast loved justice, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10 Onyankopɔn san kae se, “Mfiase no wotoo asase fapem, na ɔsoro yɛ wo nsa ano adwuma.
And: Thou in the beginning, O Lord, didst found the earth: and the works of thy hands are the heavens.
11 Ne nyinaa betwa mu; na wo de, wobɛtena hɔ daa; wɔbɛtetew sɛ atade.
They shall perish, but thou shalt continue: and they shall all grow old as a garment.
12 Wɔbɛbobɔw no sɛ ntama; na wɔbɛsesa no sɛ ntade. Nanso wote sɛnea wote, na wo mfe to rentwa da.”
And as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: but thou art the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.
13 Onyankopɔn anka ankyerɛ nʼabɔfo no se, “Montena me nifa so nkosi sɛ mede mo atamfo bɛyɛ mo anan ase ntiaso.”
But to which of the angels said he at any time: Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
14 Sɛ saa a, na abɔfo no yɛ dɛn? Wɔn nyinaa yɛ ahonhom a wɔsom Onyankopɔn na ɔsoma wɔn ma wɔkɔboa wɔn a wɔrehwehwɛ nkwagye no.
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent to minister for them, who shall receive the inheritance of salvation?
