Hebrifoɔ 1
1 Mmerɛ a atwam no, na Onyankopɔn nam akwan ahodoɔ bebree so fa adiyifoɔ so kasa kyerɛ yɛn mpanimfoɔ.
God, who at sundry times, and various ways, spake of old unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken to us by his Son,
2 Nanso, mmerɛ a ɛdi akyire no deɛ, ɔnam ne Ba no so akasa akyerɛ yɛn. Ɔno na Onyankopɔn nam ne so bɔɔ ewiase. Na ɔno na Onyankopɔn ayi no sɛ awieeɛ no, nneɛma nyinaa bɛyɛ ne dea. (aiōn g165)
whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds. (aiōn g165)
3 Ɔnam hyerɛn a Onyankopɔn animuonyam hyerɛn no so hran. Ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn sɛso pɛpɛɛpɛ, na ɔde nʼasɛm a tumi wɔ mu no sɔ ewiase mu. Ɔtee nnipa ho firii wɔn bɔne mu wieeɛ no, ɔtenaa Otumfoɔ Onyankopɔn nifa so wɔ ɔsoro.
Who being the refulgence of his glory and the imprest image of his person, and sustaining all things by his powerful word, having by Himself performed the purging away of our sins, sat down at the right hand of the majesty on high.
4 Ɛno enti, ɔyɛɛ kɛse sene abɔfoɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ, edin a Onyankopɔn de too no no yɛ kɛse sene wɔn deɛ no.
Being as much superior to the angels, as He inheriteth a name more excellent than they.
5 Ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn nso anka ankyerɛ nʼabɔfoɔ no mu biara sɛ, “Woyɛ me Ba; na ɛnnɛ, mayɛ wʼAgya.” Ɛnna wanka ankyerɛ ɔbɔfoɔ biara sɛ, “Mɛyɛ wʼAgya na wayɛ me Ba.”
For to which of the angels did He ever say, "Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee?" and again, "I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to me a Son?"
6 Ɛberɛ a Onyankopɔn pɛɛ sɛ ɔsoma nʼabakan no ba ewiase no, ɔsane kaa sɛ, “Ɛsɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn abɔfoɔ nyinaa som no.”
and when He again introduceth the First-born into the world, he saith, "And let all the angels of God worship Him."
7 Asɛm a Onyankopɔn ka faa abɔfoɔ no ho ne sɛ, “Onyankopɔn soma nʼabɔfoɔ sɛ mframa, na ɔsoma nʼasomfoɔ sɛ gyadɛreeɛ.”
And as to the angels He saith, "Who maketh his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire:"
8 Na ɛfa Ɔba no ho no, Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, “Ao, Onyankopɔn, wʼahennwa bɛtena hɔ daa nyinaa; wʼAhennie yɛ atɛntenenee. (aiōn g165)
but to the Son, "Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness: (aiōn g165)
9 Wodɔ tenenee, na wokyiri bɔne, ɛno enti, Onyankopɔn wo Onyankopɔn de wo asi wo mfɛfoɔ so, na ɔde anigyeɛ ngo asra wo.”
thou lovest righteousness and hatest iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thine associates."
10 Onyankopɔn sane kaa sɛ, “Mfitiaseɛ no wotoo asase fapem, na ɔsoro yɛ wo nsa ano adwuma.
And in another place, "Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast founded the earth, and the heavens are the works of thy hands:
11 Ne nyinaa bɛtwam na wo deɛ wobɛtena hɔ daa; wɔbɛtete sɛ atadeɛ.
they shall perish, but thou remainest; and they shall all grow old as a garment,
12 Wɔbɛbobɔ no sɛ ntoma; na wɔbɛsesa no sɛ ntadeɛ. Nanso, wote sɛdeɛ woteɛ, na wo mfeɛ to rentwa da.”
and as a mantle wilt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail."
13 Onyankopɔn anka ankyerɛ nʼabɔfoɔ no sɛ, “Montena me nifa so kɔsi sɛ mede mo atamfoɔ bɛyɛ mo nan ntiasoɔ.”
But to which of the angels hath He ever said, "Sit thou at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?"
14 Sɛ saa a, na abɔfoɔ no yɛ dɛn? Wɔn nyinaa yɛ ahonhom a wɔsom Onyankopɔn na ɔsoma wɔn ma wɔkɔboa wɔn a wɔrehwehwɛ nkwagyeɛ no.
Are they not all ministring spirits, sent forth to attend on those who shall be heirs of salvation?
