< 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.
For the Torah, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
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.
Or else wouldn’t they have ceased to be offered, because the worshippers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?
3 Ṣùgbọ́n nínú ẹbọ wọ̀nyí ni a ń ṣe ìrántí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ lọ́dọọdún.
But in those sacrifices there is a yearly reminder of sins.
4 Nítorí ko ṣe é ṣe fún ẹ̀jẹ̀ akọ màlúù àti ti ewúrẹ́ láti mú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kúrò.
For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should 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 he comes into the world, he says, “You didn’t desire sacrifice and offering, but you prepared a body for me.
6 ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò ní inú dídùn sí.
You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.
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 (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.’”
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).
Previously saying, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn’t desire, neither had pleasure in them” (those which are offered according to the Torah),
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 has said, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He takes away the first, that he may 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 which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Yeshua the Messiah 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.
Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and offering often the same sacrifices, which 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 he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God,
13 láti ìgbà náà, ó retí títí a o fi àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ ṣe àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of 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 forever 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, for after saying,
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 that I will make with them after those days,” says the Lord, “I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;” then he says,
17 Ó tún sọ wí pé: “Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn àti àìṣedéédéé wọn lèmi kì yóò sì rántí mọ́.”
“I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more.”
18 Ṣùgbọ́n níbi tí ìmúkúrò ìwọ̀nyí bá gbé wà, ìrúbọ fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kò sí mọ́.
Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Ará, ǹjẹ́ bí a ti ní ìgboyà láti wọ inú Ibi Mímọ́ Jùlọ nípasẹ̀ ẹ̀jẹ̀ Jesu,
Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Yeshua,
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 way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,
21 àti bí a ti ni àlùfáà gíga lórí ilé Ọlọ́run;
and having a great priest over God’s house,
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’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and having our body 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’s hold fast 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,
Let’s consider how to provoke one another 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 forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.
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 sin wilfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more 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 a certain fearful expectation of judgement, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.
28 Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ba gan òfin Mose, ó kú láìsí àánú nípa ẹ̀rí ẹni méjì tàbí mẹ́ta.
A man who disregards the Torah of Moses dies without compassion on the word 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 he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and 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 belongs to me. I will repay,” says the Lord. 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 former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:
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.
partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions, and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.
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 both had compassion on me in my chains and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.
35 Nítorí náà ẹ má ṣe gbé ìgboyà yín sọnù, èyí ti o ni èrè ńlá.
Therefore don’t throw away your boldness, 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 need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
37 Nítorí, “Ni ìwọ̀n ìgbà díẹ̀ sí i, ẹni náà ti ń bọ̀ yóò dé, kí yóò sì jáfara.
“In a very little while, he who comes will come and will not wait.
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. If he shrinks back, my soul has 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 of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.
