Ibraniyawa 8
1 Nene udursu nile imon na tidin nbelle inere, tidi nin npirist udia ulenge na asosin ncara alime unkutel ndia kitene kani.
Now the main point of what we are saying is this: We have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the Majesty's throne in heaven,
2 Ame kuci nari nanya kutyi kulau, kutyii nliran kidegen na cikilari wa tuno, na unit usurneri ba.
where he serves as a minister of the holy places and the true tabernacle, which was set up by the Lord, not by man.
3 Bara ko uyeme upirist iwa fereghe a ni vat unizu nin gutunu nmyi bara kulapi, bara nani uso gbas ise imomon na iba ni.
For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; therefore, it was necessary for this priest also to have something to offer.
4 Nene ndah Kristi wandi nanya nyi, na awa so upirist ba, sam, tunda na amon duku allenghe na ina niza ufilizinu bara uduka.
For if he were on earth, he would not even be a priest, since there are already priests who offer gifts according to the law.
5 Iwa tumuzun imomon ile na uli nafo ulema nin nshin, nimon kitene kani, nafo na Kutelle wa su Musa ku kagbara, kubi na awadi nworu a tuno litino kutyin nliran, “yene” Kutelle woro “uba ke imone vat nafo nda na iwa dursofi kitene likup,”
They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. For when Moses was about to build the tabernacle, he was warned by God, “Be sure to make everything according to the pattern that was shown to yoʋ on the mountain.”
6 Bara nene Kristi wa seru katuwa kadia, bara ame tutun di kiyitik nalikawali acine, alenge na iwa tunno nanya likawali acine.
But as it is, the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to the old priesthood as the covenant he mediates is superior to the old covenant, since it has been enacted on better promises.
7 Andi aleli alikawali nburne na nnana ba na ubellen npiziru nalikawali an ba ba yitu ku ba.
For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need to look for a second one.
8 Na Kutelle wase kulapi kiti nanit, aworo “yenen ayiri din ncinu” ubellun ncikalari. Kubi na mba su alikawali apese nin kilarin Isiraila, nin kinin kilarin Yahuda.
But finding fault with it, God says to the people, “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,
9 Na aba yitu nafo alikawali alenge na nnasu nan na cifi mene ba, nloli liyire na nwan yacun nani nin nacara nnutuno nani nanyan nmyin nmasar, bara na iwa li ubun nanya nalikawali nighe ba.
not like the covenant I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not continue in my covenant, so I had no regard for them, says the Lord.
10 “Bara alelere alikawali alenge na mbasu nin kilari Isiraila, kimal nale ayire” ubellun cikilari “mba” ciu uduka nigh nanya nibinai mine, mba kuru nyertu unin nanya nayi mine, mba so Kutelle mine, ung baso anit nighe.
For this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
11 Na inug ba dursu umon unan lisosin kupo mine ba, sa umon gwana me, ubelle, “yinnon cikilare” bara vat ba yinie, unuzu nbene udu udiawe.
No longer will a man teach his fellow citizen or his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest.
12 Bara meng ba dursu nkunekune kitene naddu ananzan mine, na meng ba kuru nlizin nin nalapi mine ba.
For I will be merciful toward their iniquities; their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”
13 Nanya nbelle “ipese” anati alikawali nburne akuse inin ulenge na ana bellin iso ikuse ina mali uwulu.
In speaking of “a new covenant,” he has made the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old will soon disappear.
