Hebrifoɔ 7
1 Na saa Melkisedek yi yɛ Salemhene, ɛnna ɔsane yɛ Ɔsorosoro Onyankopɔn ɔsɔfoɔ. Ɛberɛ a Abraham firi ɔko a ɔkumm ahemfo ano reba no, Melkisedek hyiaa no hyiraa no.
UMelikhizedekhi lo wayeyinkosi yaseSalemu lomphristi kaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke. Wahlangabeza u-Abhrahama evela kwehlula amakhosi, wambusisa,
2 Abraham maa no nʼasadeɛ no mu nkyɛmu edu mu baako. Melkisedek din no nkyerɛaseɛ a ɛdi ɛkan no ne Tenenee Ɔhene. Esiane sɛ na ɔyɛ Salemhene no enti, wɔkyerɛɛ ne din no ase sɛ Asomdwoeɛhene.
u-Abhrahama wamnika okwetshumi kwakho konke. Okwakuqala, ibizo elithi Melikhizedekhi litsho ukuthi “Nkosi yokulunga”; lokuthi futhi, “Nkosi yaseSalemu” kutsho ukuthi “Nkosi yokuthula.”
3 Obi nnim Melkisedek agya, ne maame, ne ne mpanimfoɔ ho asɛm. Saa ara nso na obi nnim nʼawoɔ ne ne owuo nso ho asɛm. Ɔsɛ Onyankopɔn Ba, na ɔda so yɛ ɔsɔfoɔ daadaa.
Engelayise loba unina, engelamdabuko, engelakuqala kwensuku loba ukuphela kokuphila njengeNdodana kaNkulunkulu uhlezi engumphristi nini lanini.
4 Yei di ho adanseɛ sɛ na ɔyɛ onipa kɛseɛ a Agya Abraham mpo tumi ma no nʼasadeɛ mu nkyɛmu edu mu baako.
Ake licabange ukuthi wayemkhulu kangakanani: Lokhokho u-Abhrahama wamnika okwetshumi kwempango!
5 Nanso, Lewi asefoɔ a wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ no Mmara na ɛhyɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnnye nkyɛmu edu mu baako mfiri wɔn ara wɔn nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ nkyɛn a wɔn nso yɛ Abraham asefoɔ no.
Khathesi umthetho ufuna abenzalo kaLevi ababa ngabaphristi ukuba baqoqe okwetshumi ebantwini, lokhu kutsho abafowabo lanxa abafowabo beyinzalo ka-Abhrahama.
6 Melkisedek nyɛ Lewi aseni, nanso ɔgyee nkyɛmu edu mu baako firii Abraham nkyɛn hyiraa no maa ɔnyaa Onyankopɔn bɔhyɛ no.
Umuntu lo kazange alonde umdabuko wakhe usukela kuLevi kodwa waqoqa okwetshumi ku-Abhrahama njalo wambusisa yena lowo owayelezithembiso.
7 Akyinnyeɛ biara nni ho sɛ deɛ ɔma nhyira so sene deɛ ɔgye nhyira.
Kakulakuthandabuza ukuthi umuntu omncinyane ubusiswa ngomkhulu.
8 Wɔde nnipa akatua nkyɛmu edu mu baako ma asɔfoɔ, nanso asɔfoɔ yi nyinaa wu, gye Melkisedek a Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ ɔte ase.
Kwesinye isehlakalo, okwetshumi kuthathwa ngabantu abafayo kodwa kwesinye isehlakalo kube ngulowo okuthiwe uyaphila.
9 Enti, nokorɛm, Abraham tuaa nkyɛmu edu no, Lewi a nʼasefoɔ gye nkyɛmu edu no nso nam Abraham so tuaa bi maa Melkisedek.
Umuntu angatsho lokuthi uLevi oqoqa okwetshumi, wanikela okwetshumi ngo-Abhrahama
10 Na wɔnwoo Lewi, nanso ɛsiane sɛ na ɔhyɛ ne nana Abraham mu saa ɛberɛ no a Melkisedek hyiaa no no enti na ɔtuaeɛ.
ngoba lapho uMelikhizedekhi ehlangabeza u-Abhrahama uLevi wayelokhu esesemzimbeni kakhokho wakhe.
11 Ɛnam Lewi asɔfodie so enti na wɔde Mmara no maa Israelfoɔ. Ɛno enti sɛ Lewifoɔ asɔfodie no tumi de pɛyɛ brɛ nnipa a, anka ɛho nhia sɛ wɔbɛfa ɔsɔfoɔ foforɔ bi sɛ Melkisedek a ɔmfiri Aaron abusua mu.
Nxa ukuphelela kwakungatholakala ngobuphristi babaLevi njalo ngempela umthetho owaphiwa abantu wasungula lobobuphristi, pho kungani kwakulokhu kudingeka ukuba omunye umphristi abuye evela emkhondweni kaMelikhizedekhi, engasiwemkhondweni ka-Aroni na?
12 Sɛ ɛba sɛ asɔfodie no sesa a, ɛma ɛho mmara no nso sesa.
Ngoba lapho kulokuguqulwa kobuphristi, kufanele kube lokuguqulwa komthetho futhi.
13 Nanso, yɛn Awurade a wɔka saa asɛm yi nyinaa fa ne ho no firi abusua foforɔ mu. Ne busuani biara nnii ɔsɔfoɔ wɔ afɔrebukyia ho da.
Yena lowo okutshiwo lezizinto ngaye ngowesinye isizwana njalo kakho owalesosizwana owake wakhonza e-alithareni.
14 Ɛyɛ sɛnnahɔ sɛ wɔwoo no too Yuda abusua mu, na Mose kaa asɔfoɔ ho asɛm no nso, wammɔ nʼabusua din da.
Ngoba kusobala ukuba iNkosi yethu yadabuka koJuda njalo mayelana lalesosizwana uMosi katshongo lutho ngabaphristi.
15 Asɛm no da ne ho adi pefee, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔsɔfoɔ foforɔ bi aba a ɔte sɛ Melkisedek.
Njalo lokhu esesikutshilo kucace kakhulu nxa omunye umphristi onjengoMelikhizedekhi evela,
16 Ɔno deɛ, ɛnnam onipa mmara so na wɔhyɛɛ no ɔsɔfoɔ, na mmom wɔnam nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ tumi so na ɛyɛɛ no ɔsɔfoɔ.
omunye obe ngumphristi kungayisikho komthetho ngokosendo lwakhe kodwa ngokumayelana lamandla okuphila okungeke kuchithwe.
17 Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Wobɛyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ akɔsi daa sɛdeɛ Melkisedek asɔfokwan nhyehyɛeɛ te no.” (aiōn g165)
Ngoba kumenyezelwe ukuthi: “Wena ungumphristi kuze kube nini lanini, emkhondweni kaMelikhizedekhi.” (aiōn g165)
18 Wɔato mmara dada no atwene, ɛfiri sɛ, sintɔ bi wɔ mmara no mu, na ɛho nni mfasoɔ nso.
Umthetho wakuqala ubekwe eceleni ngoba wawubuthakathaka njalo ungelasizo
19 Ɛno enti, Mose Mmara no antumi amma biribiara anyɛ pɛ. Nanso wɔde anidasoɔ pa bi a yɛnam so bɛn Onyankopɔn aba.
(ngoba umthetho kawenzanga lutho olupheleleyo) ngakho kulethwa ithemba elitsha esisondela ngalo kuNkulunkulu.
20 Ɛno akyi, Onyankopɔn ntam abɛka ho. Ɛberɛ a ɔhyɛɛ Aaron asefoɔ asɔfoɔ no na ntam a ɛte saa nni hɔ.
Njalo kwakungayisikho ngaphandle kwesifungo! Abanye babangabaphristi kungekho sifungo,
21 Yesu deɛ, ɔnam ntam so bɛyɛɛ ɔsɔfoɔ ɛberɛ a Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Awurade aka ntam; na ɔrensesa nʼadwene: ‘Wobɛyɛ ɔsɔfoɔ daa nyinaa.’” (aiōn g165)
kodwa yena waba ngumphristi ngesifungo lapho uNkulunkulu athi kuye: “INkosi ifungile njalo kayiyikuguqula ingqondo yayo: ‘Wena ungumphristi kuze kube nini lanini.’” (aiōn g165)
22 Saa ntam yi enti, Yesu gyina mu ma yɛn, na ɛma yɛne Onyankopɔn apam no di mu.
Ngenxa yesifungo lesi, uJesu usebe yisiqiniselo sesivumelwano esingcono.
23 Nsonsonoeɛ foforɔ bi nso wɔ hɔ. Na saa asɔfoɔ no dɔɔso, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔwuwu a wɔntumi ntoa wɔn adwuma so.
Abaphristi labo sebebanengi njengoba babevinjelwa yikufa ukuba baqhubeke besezikhundleni;
kodwa uJesu uphila kuze kube laphakade, ulobuphristi obuyisimakade. (aiōn g165)
25 Enti, ɔtumi gye wɔn a wɔnam ne so ba Onyankopɔn nkyɛn no ɛnnɛ ne daa, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔte hɔ daa srɛ Onyankopɔn ma wɔn.
Ngakho ulamandla okubasindisa ngokupheleleyo labo abeza kuNkulunkulu ngaye ngoba uhlezi ephilela ukubancengela.
26 Yesu ne Ɔsɔfopanin a ɔboa yɛn wɔ yɛn ahiasɛm mu. Ɔyɛ kronkron. Ɔnni mfomsoɔ biara wɔ ne mu, na ɔnyɛ bɔne. Wɔate no afiri nnebɔneyɛfoɔ ho na wɔapagya no aboro ɔsoro so.
Umphristi omkhulu onjalo wagcwalisa izinswelo zethu, ongongcwele, ongelasici, lohlanzekileyo, lowehlukaniswe lezoni, lophakanyiselwe ngaphezu kwamazulu.
27 Ɔnte sɛ asɔfoɔ mpanin a aka no a, daa afɔrebɔ a ɔbɔ no kane no ɔbɔ wɔ ne bɔne a wayɛ ho ansa na afei, wabɔ afoforɔ deɛ no. Ɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ baako pɛ a ɔde ne ho na ɛbɔeɛ.
Hatshi njengabanye abaphristi abakhulu, yena kadingi kunikela imihlatshelo insuku zonke, kuqala eyezono zakhe, kulandele owezono zabantu. Wabenzela umhlatshelo wezono zabo kwaba kanye kuphela lapho ezinikela.
28 Mose Mmara no yi nnipa a wɔmfata ma wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ mpanin, nanso Onyankopɔn bɔ a ɔde ntam kaa ho no a ɛtaa Mmara no akyi no, yii Ɔba no a ɔyɛ pɛ daa nyinaa no. (aiōn g165)
Ngoba umthetho ubeka abantu ababuthakathaka ukuba ngabaphristi abakhulu kodwa isifungo eseza emva komthetho sabeka iNdodana eyenziwe yaba ngepheleleyo kuze kube nininini. (aiōn g165)
