Hebrews 10
1 Nítorí tí òfin jẹ́ òjìji àwọn ohun rere ti ń bọ̀ tí kì í ṣe àwòrán tòótọ́ fún àwọn òtítọ́ náà, wọn kò lè fi ẹbọ kan náà tí wọn ń rú nígbà gbogbo lọ́dọọdún mu àwọn tí ń wá jọ́sìn di pípé.
Since the law has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the true form of those things, the same sacrifices offered year after year can never perfect those who draw near to worship.
2 Bí kò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, a kì ìbá tí dẹ́kun àti máa rú wọn, nítorí àwọn ti ń sìn ki ìbá tí ní ìmọ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, nígbà tí a bá ti wẹ̀ wọ́n mọ́ lẹ́ẹ̀kan ṣoṣo.
Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers would have been purified once and for all, and would no longer have any consciousness of their sins?
3 Ṣùgbọ́n nínú ẹbọ wọ̀nyí ni a ń ṣe ìrántí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ lọ́dọọdún.
But year after year they are reminded of their sins by these sacrifices.
4 Nítorí ko ṣe é ṣe fún ẹ̀jẹ̀ akọ màlúù àti ti ewúrẹ́ láti mú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kúrò.
For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
5 Nítorí náà nígbà tí Kristi wá sí ayé, ó wí pé, “Ìwọ kò fẹ́ ẹbọ àti ọrẹ, ṣùgbọ́n ara ni ìwọ ti pèsè fún mi,
Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said, “Sacrifice and offering yoʋ did not desire, but a body yoʋ prepared for me;
6 ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò ní inú dídùn sí.
in whole burnt offerings and sin offerings yoʋ took no pleasure.
7 Nígbà náà ni mo wí pé, ‘Kíyèsi i (nínú ìwé kíká ni a gbé kọ ọ́ nípa ti èmi) mo dé láti ṣe ìfẹ́ rẹ, Ọlọ́run.’”
Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do yoʋr will, O God, as it is written about me in the scroll of the book.’”
8 Nígbà tí o wí ni ìṣáájú pé, “Ìwọ kò fẹ́ ẹbọ àti ọrẹ àti ẹbọ sísun, àti ẹbọ fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò ni inú dídùn si wọn” (àwọn èyí tí a ń rú gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin).
In the passage above he says, “Sacrifice and offering, and whole burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor did you take pleasure in them” (although they are offered according to the law),
9 Nígbà náà ni ó wí pé, “Kíyèsi i, mo de láti ṣe ìfẹ́ rẹ Ọlọ́run.” Ó mú ti ìṣáájú kúrò, kí a lè fi ìdí èkejì múlẹ̀.
Then he adds, “Behold, I have come to do yoʋr will, O God.” He takes away the first in order to establish the second.
10 Nípa ìfẹ́ náà ni a ti sọ wá di mímọ́ nípa ẹbọ ti Jesu Kristi fi ara rẹ̀ rú lẹ́ẹ̀kan ṣoṣo.
By God's will, we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11 Àti olúkúlùkù àlùfáà sì ń dúró lójoojúmọ́ láti ṣiṣẹ́ ìsìn, ó sì ń ṣe ẹbọ kan náà nígbàkígbà, tí kò lè mú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kúrò láé.
Now every priest stands daily at service, offering again and again the same sacrifices that can never take away sins.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n òun, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí o ti rú ẹbọ kan fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ títí láé, o jókòó lọ́wọ́ ọ̀tún Ọlọ́run;
But when Christ had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,
13 láti ìgbà náà, ó retí títí a o fi àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ ṣe àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
where he is now waiting until his enemies are made a footstool for his feet.
14 Nítorí nípa ẹbọ kan a ti mú àwọn tí a sọ di mímọ́ pé títí láé.
For by one offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.
15 Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ sì ń jẹ́rìí fún wa pẹ̀lú, nítorí lẹ́yìn tí ó wí pé,
The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First he says,
16 “Èyí ni májẹ̀mú ti èmi o ba wọn dá lẹ́hìn àwọn ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí, ni Olúwa wí. Èmi o fi òfin mi sí wọn ní ọkàn, inú wọn pẹ̀lú ni èmi o sì kọ wọn sí.”
“This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts and write them on their minds.”
17 Ó tún sọ wí pé: “Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn àti àìṣedéédéé wọn lèmi kì yóò sì rántí mọ́.”
Then he adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”
18 Ṣùgbọ́n níbi tí ìmúkúrò ìwọ̀nyí bá gbé wà, ìrúbọ fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kò sí mọ́.
Now where there is remission of these, an offering for sin is no longer needed.
19 Ará, ǹjẹ́ bí a ti ní ìgboyà láti wọ inú Ibi Mímọ́ Jùlọ nípasẹ̀ ẹ̀jẹ̀ Jesu,
Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus,
20 nípa ọ̀nà títún àti ààyè, tí o yà sí mímọ́ fún wa, àti láti kọjá aṣọ ìkélé èyí yìí ní, ara rẹ̀;
by the new and living way he opened for us through the veil (that is, through his flesh),
21 àti bí a ti ni àlùfáà gíga lórí ilé Ọlọ́run;
and since we have a great priest over the house of God,
22 ẹ jẹ́ kí a fi òtítọ́ ọkàn súnmọ́ tòsí ni ẹ̀kún ìgbàgbọ́, kí a sì wẹ ọkàn wa mọ́ kúrò nínú ẹ̀rí ọkàn búburú, kí a sì fi omi mímọ́ wẹ ara wa nù.
let us draw near with true hearts, in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Ẹ jẹ́ kí a di ìjẹ́wọ́ ìrètí wa mu ṣinṣin ni àìṣiyèméjì, nítorí pé olóòtítọ́ ní ẹni tí o ṣe ìlérí.
Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.
24 Ẹ jẹ́ kí a yẹ ara wa wò láti ru ara wa sí ìfẹ́ àti sí iṣẹ́ rere,
And let us consider how to spur one another on to love and good works,
25 kí a ma máa kọ ìpéjọpọ̀ ara wa sílẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bi àṣà àwọn ẹlòmíràn; ṣùgbọ́n kí a máa gba ara ẹni níyànjú pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú bí ẹ̀yin ti rí i pé ọjọ́ náà ń súnmọ́ etílé.
not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
26 Nítorí bí àwa ba mọ̀ ọ́n mọ̀ dẹ́ṣẹ̀ lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí àwa bá ti gba ìmọ̀ òtítọ́ kò tún sí ẹbọ fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mọ́.
For if we continue sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,
27 Bí kò ṣe ìrètí ìdájọ́ tí ó ba ni lẹ́rù, àti ti ìbínú ti o múná, tí yóò pa àwọn ọ̀tá run.
but only a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume God's adversaries.
28 Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ba gan òfin Mose, ó kú láìsí àánú nípa ẹ̀rí ẹni méjì tàbí mẹ́ta.
Anyone who has rejected the law of Moses dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
29 Mélòó mélòó ni ẹ rò pé a o jẹ ẹni náà ní ìyà kíkan, ẹni tí o tẹ Ọmọ Ọlọ́run mọ́lẹ̀ tí ó sì ti ka ẹ̀jẹ̀ májẹ̀mú ti a fi sọ ọ́ di mímọ́ si ohun àìmọ́, tí ó sì ti kẹ́gàn ẹ̀mí oore-ọ̀fẹ́.
How much worse punishment do you think will be deserved by someone who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?
30 Nítorí àwa mọ ẹni tí o wí pé, Ẹ̀san ni ti èmi, Olúwa wí pé, “Èmi ó gbẹ̀san.” Àti pẹ̀lú, “Olúwa yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.”
For we know him who said, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.”
31 Ohun ẹ̀rù ni láti ṣubú sí ọwọ́ Ọlọ́run alààyè.
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ rántí ọjọ́ ìṣáájú nínú èyí tí, nígbà tí a ti sí yin lójú, ẹ fi ara da wàhálà ńlá ti ìjìyà;
But remember the earlier days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle in the face of suffering.
33 lápákan, nígbà tí a sọ yín di ìran wíwò nípa ẹ̀gàn àti ìpọ́njú; àti lápákan, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin di ẹgbẹ́ àwọn tí a ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ si.
At times you were publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and at other times you were partners with those who were treated that way.
34 Nítorí ẹ̀yin bá àwọn tí ó wà nínú ìdè kẹ́dùn, ẹ sì fi ayọ̀ gba ìkólọ ẹrù yin, nítorí ẹ̀yin mọ nínú ara yin pé, ẹ ni ọrọ̀ tí ó wà títí, tí ó sì dára jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ.
For you sympathized with me when I was in prison, and you accepted the plundering of your possessions with joy, knowing that you have for yourselves a better and lasting possession in heaven.
35 Nítorí náà ẹ má ṣe gbé ìgboyà yín sọnù, èyí ti o ni èrè ńlá.
Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.
36 Nítorí ẹ̀yin kò le ṣe aláìní sùúrù, nítorí ìgbà tí ẹ̀yin bá ti ṣe ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run tan kí ẹ̀yin le gba ìlérí náà.
For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what was promised.
37 Nítorí, “Ni ìwọ̀n ìgbà díẹ̀ sí i, ẹni náà ti ń bọ̀ yóò dé, kí yóò sì jáfara.
“For in just a little while, he who is coming will come and not delay.
38 Ṣùgbọ́n, “Olódodo ni yóò yè nípa ìgbàgbọ́. Ṣùgbọ́n bí o ba fàsẹ́yìn, ọkàn mi kò ní inú dídùn sí i.”
But the righteous one will live by faith; and if he shrinks back, my soul will take no pleasure in him.”
39 Ṣùgbọ́n àwa kò sí nínú àwọn tí ń fàsẹ́yìn sínú ègbé; bí kò ṣe nínú àwọn tí o gbàgbọ́ sí ìgbàlà ọkàn.
But we are not among those who shrink back and are destroyed, but among those who have faith and preserve their souls.
