< Hebrews 1 >
1 Ní ìgbà àtijọ́, Ọlọ́run bá àwọn baba ńlá wa sọ̀rọ̀ láti ẹnu àwọn wòlíì ní ọ̀pọ̀ ìgbà àti ní onírúurú ọ̀nà,
God, who at several times and in divers manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 ṣùgbọ́n ní ìgbà ìkẹyìn yìí Ọlọ́run ń bá wa sọ̀rọ̀ nípasẹ̀ Ọmọ rẹ̀ Jesu Kristi, ẹni tí ó fi ṣe ajogún ohun gbogbo, nípasẹ̀ ẹni tí ó dá gbogbo ayé yìí àti ohun gbogbo tí ń bẹ nínú rẹ̀. (aiōn )
Has in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (aiōn )
3 Ọmọ tí í ṣe ìtànṣán ògo Ọlọ́run àti àwòrán òun tìkára rẹ̀, tí ó sì ń fi ọ̀rọ̀ agbára rẹ̀ mú ohun gbogbo dúró. Lẹ́yìn tí ó ti ṣe ìwẹ̀nù ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa tan, ó wá jókòó ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Ọláńlá ní òkè.
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word (rhema) of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
4 Nítorí náà, ó sì ti fi bẹ́ẹ̀ di ẹni tí ó ga ní ipò ju angẹli lọ, bí ó ti jogún orúkọ èyí tí ó tayọ̀ tiwọn.
Being made so much better than the angels, as he has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
5 Nítorí kò sí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn angẹli tí Ọlọ́run fi ìgbà kan sọ fún pé: “Ìwọ ni ọmọ mi; lónìí ni mo bí ọ”? Àti pẹ̀lú pé, “Èmi yóò jẹ́ baba fún un, Òun yóò sì jẹ́ ọmọ mi”?
For unto which of the angels said he at any time, You are my Son, this day have I begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
6 Àti pẹ̀lú, nígbà tí Ọlọ́run rán àkọ́bí rẹ̀ wá si ayé wa yìí. Ó pàṣẹ pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí gbogbo àwọn angẹli Ọlọ́run foríbalẹ̀ fún un.”
And again, when he brings in the First-Born into the world, he says, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 Àti nípa ti àwọn angẹli, ó wí pé, “Ẹni tí ó dá àwọn angẹli rẹ̀ ní ẹ̀mí, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ iná.”
And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits, (pneuma) and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 Ṣùgbọ́n ó sọ nípa tí Ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ìtẹ́ rẹ, Ọlọ́run, láé àti láéláé ni, ọ̀pá aládé òdodo ni ọ̀pá ìjọba rẹ. (aiōn )
But unto the Son he says, Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of your kingdom. (aiōn )
9 Ìwọ fẹ́ òdodo, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kórìíra iṣẹ́ búburú; nítorí èyí ni Ọlọ́run, àní Ọlọ́run rẹ ṣe fi àmì òróró ayọ̀ yàn ọ tí ó gbé ọ ju àwọn ẹgbẹ́ rẹ lọ.”
You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
10 Ó tún sọ pé, “Ní àtètèkọ́ṣe, ìwọ Olúwa, ìwọ fi ìdí ayé sọlẹ̀, àwọn ọ̀run sì jẹ́ iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ ara rẹ.
And, You, Lord, in the beginning have laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands:
11 Wọn yóò ṣègbé, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ yóò wà síbẹ̀ gbogbo wọn ni yóò di àkísà bí ẹ̀wù.
They shall perish; but you remain; and they all shall wax old as does a garment;
12 Ní kíká ni ìwọ yóò ká wọn bí aṣọ, bí ìpààrọ̀ aṣọ ni a ó sì pààrọ̀ wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ fúnra rẹ̀ kì yóò yípadà àti pé ọdún rẹ kì yóò ní òpin.”
And as a vesture shall you fold them up, and they shall be changed: but you are the same, and your years shall not fail.
13 Èwo nínú àwọn angẹli ní a gbọ́ pé Ọlọ́run fi ìgbà kan wí fún pé, “Jókòó ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún mi títí èmi yóò fi sọ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ di àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ rẹ”?
But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?
14 Kì í ha á ṣe ẹ̀mí tí ń jíṣẹ́ ni àwọn angẹli í ṣe bí; tí a rán lọ síta láti máa ṣiṣẹ́ fún àwọn tí yóò jogún ìgbàlà?
Are they not all ministering spirits, (pneuma) sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
