Hebrews 7
1 Nítorí Melkisedeki yìí, ọba Salẹmu, àlùfáà Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo, ẹni tí ó pàdé Abrahamu bí ó ti ń padà bọ̀ láti ibi pípa àwọn ọba, tí ó sì súre fún un,
FOR this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
2 ẹni tí Abrahamu sì pín ìdámẹ́wàá ohun gbogbo fún. Ní ọ̀nà èkínní orúkọ rẹ̀ túmọ̀ sí “ọba òdodo”; àti lẹ́yìn náà pẹ̀lú, “ọba Salẹmu,” tí í ṣe “ọba àlàáfíà.”
To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
3 Láìní baba, láìní ìyá, láìní ìtàn ìran, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ọjọ́ tàbí òpin ọjọ́ ayé; ṣùgbọ́n a ṣe é bí Ọmọ Ọlọ́run; ó wà ní àlùfáà títí.
Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
4 Ǹjẹ́ ẹ gbà á rò bí ọkùnrin yìí ti pọ̀ tó, ẹni tí Abrahamu baba ńlá fi ìdámẹ́wàá nínú àwọn àṣàyàn ìkógun fún.
Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
5 Àti nítòótọ́ àwọn tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ Lefi, tí o gba oyè àlùfáà, wọ́n ní àṣẹ láti máa gba ìdámẹ́wàá lọ́wọ́ àwọn ènìyàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin, èyí yìí, lọ́wọ́ àwọn arákùnrin wọn, bí ó tilẹ̀ ti jẹ́ pé, wọn ti inú Abrahamu jáde.
And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:
6 Ṣùgbọ́n òun ẹni tí a kò tilẹ̀ pìtàn ìran rẹ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ wọn wá, gba ìdámẹ́wàá lọ́wọ́ Abrahamu, ó sì súre fún ẹni tí ó gba ìlérí,
But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7 láìsí ìjiyàn rárá ẹni kò tó ẹni tí à ń súre fún láti ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí ó ju ni.
And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
8 Ni apá kan, àwọn ẹni kíkú gba ìdámẹ́wàá; ṣùgbọ́n níbẹ̀, ẹni tí a jẹ́rìí rẹ̀ pé o ń bẹ láààyè nì.
And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
9 Àti bí a ti lè wí, Lefi pàápàá tí ń gba ìdámẹ́wàá, ti san ìdámẹ́wàá nípasẹ̀ Abrahamu.
And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
10 Nítorí o sá à sì ń bẹ ní inú baba rẹ̀, nígbà ti Melkisedeki pàdé rẹ̀.
For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
11 Ǹjẹ́ ìbá ṣe pé pípé ń bẹ nípa oyè àlùfáà Lefi (nítorí pé lábẹ́ rẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn gba òfin), kín ni ó sì tún kù mọ́ tí àlùfáà mìíràn ìbá fi dìde ní títẹ̀lé àpẹẹrẹ tí Melkisedeki, tí a kò si wí pé ní títẹ̀lé àpẹẹrẹ tí Aaroni?
If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law, ) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
12 Nítorí pé bí a ti ń pààrọ̀ iṣẹ́ àlùfáà, a kò sì lè ṣàì máa pààrọ̀ òfin.
For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
13 Nítorí ẹni tí à ń sọ̀rọ̀ nǹkan wọ̀nyí nípa rẹ̀ jẹ́ ẹ̀yà mìíràn, láti inú èyí tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò tì jọ́sìn rí níbi pẹpẹ.
For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
14 Nítorí ó hàn gbangba pé láti inú ẹ̀yà Juda ni Olúwa wa ti dìde; nípa ẹ̀yà yìí Mose kò sọ ohunkóhun ní ti àwọn àlùfáà.
For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
15 Ó sì tún hàn gbangba ju bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ bí ó ti jẹ pé àlùfáà mìíràn dìde ní àpẹẹrẹ ti Melkisedeki.
And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
16 Èyí tí a fi jẹ́, kì í ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà òfin nípa ti ara, bí kò ṣe nípa agbára ti ìyè àìlópin.
Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (aiōn g165)
18 Nítorí a mú òfin ìṣáájú kúrò nítorí àìlera àti àìlérè rẹ̀.
For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
19 (Nítorí òfin kò mú ohunkóhun pé), a sì mú ìrètí tí ó dára jù wá nípa èyí tí àwa ń súnmọ́ Ọlọ́run.
For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
20 Níwọ́n bí ó sì ti ṣe pé kì í ṣe ní àìbúra ni. Nítorí àwọn àlùfáà tẹ́lẹ̀ jẹ oyè láìsí ìbúra,
And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
21 ṣùgbọ́n ti òun jẹ́ pẹ̀lú ìbúra nígbà tí Ọlọ́run wí fún un pé, “Olúwa búra, kí yóò sì yí padà: ‘Ìwọ ni àlùfáà kan títí láé.’” (aiōn g165)
(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec: ) (aiōn g165)
22 Níwọ́n bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jesu ti di onígbọ̀wọ́ májẹ̀mú tí ó dára jù.
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
23 Àti nítòótọ́ àwọn púpọ̀ ní a ti fi jẹ àlùfáà, nítorí wọn kò lè wà títí nítorí ikú.
And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. (aiōn g165)
25 Nítorí náà ó sì le gbà wọ́n là pẹ̀lú títí dé òpin, ẹni tí ó bá tọ Ọlọ́run wá nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀, nítorí tí o ń bẹ láààyè títí láé láti máa bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún wọn.
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
26 Nítorí pé irú olórí àlùfáà bẹ́ẹ̀ ni o yẹ wá, mímọ́, àìlẹ́gàn, àìléèérí, tí a yà sọ́tọ̀ kúrò láàrín àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, tí a sì gbéga ju àwọn ọ̀run lọ.
For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Ẹni tí kò ní láti máa rú ẹbọ lójoojúmọ́, bí àwọn olórí àlùfáà, fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ti ara rẹ̀ náà, àti lẹ́yìn náà fún tí àwọn ènìyàn; nítorí èyí ni tí ó ṣe lẹ́ẹ̀kan ṣoṣo, nígbà tí ó fi ara rẹ̀ rú ẹbọ.
Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
28 Nítorí pé òfin a máa fi àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ní àìlera jẹ olórí àlùfáà; ṣùgbọ́n nípa ọ̀rọ̀ ti ìbúra, tí ó ṣe lẹ́yìn òfin, ó fi ọmọ jẹ; ẹni tí a sọ di pípé títí láé. (aiōn g165)
For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore. (aiōn g165)
