Hebrews 7
1 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,
Wakali ooyu Melekizedeki mwami wakuSalemu, mupayizi waLeza usumpukide wakaswanana aAbbulamu kaboola kuzwa kwakali kufundwa baami mpawo wakamulongezya.
2 to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, by interpretation, “king of righteousness”, and then also “king of Salem”, which means “king of peace”,
Nkulinguwe oko Abbulamu nkwakapa chibeela chaachakummi chazyonse. Lutanzi kupandulwa kwazina lyakwe chaamba kuuti “mwaami wabululami,” alimwi utegwa “mwami wakuSalemu,” chamba kuti “mwami walumuno.”
3 without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God), remains a priest continually.
Takwe wisi, takwe banyina, takwe basikale, katakwe nikuba kutalika kwamazuba anikuba kwabuumi. Nikuba oobo, uyiminide mwana waLeza, nkambo unolimupayizi kwalyonse.
4 Now consider how great this man was, to whom even Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth out of the best plunder.
Bona bupati kuloyu mwalumi wachiindi Abbulamu ngwakapa chipanzi chakkumi kuzintu nzyakatola munkondo.
5 They indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the priest’s office have a commandment to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is, of their brothers, though these have come out of the body of Abraham,
Izyalane lya Levi eelyo litambula mulimu wabupayizi balamalayilile kwinda mumulawu kuti batole zyachakkumi, kubantu nkuukuti chizwa kuli babunyina nikuba kuti ambabo nizyalane lizwa kuliAbbulamu.
6 but he whose genealogy is not counted from them has accepted tithes from Abraham, and has blessed him who has the promises.
Pesi Melekizedeki, ulazyalane elyo lyakatali lyabo lyakatambula chakkumi kuzwa kuli mbabo, wakatambula zyakkumi kuzwa kuli Abbulamu akumulongezya, oyo wakali azisyomezyo.
7 But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.
Takwe zikazyana akuti muntu munini ulongezegwa amupati.
8 Here people who die receive tithes, but there one receives tithes of whom it is testified that he lives.
Mulaya makkani muntu wanyama ulatambula chakkumi, pesi mumakani aya kulibukamboni bwakuti unochipona.
9 We can say that through Abraham even Levi, who receives tithes, has paid tithes,
Mpawo, kwinda munzila yakwambula, muLevi ooyo wakali kutambula chakkumi, alakwe wakali kugwisya chakkumi kwinda kuli Abbulamu,
10 for he was yet in the body of his father when Melchizedek met him.
nkaambo Levi wakali mumubili wazyalane awo Melekizedeki nakaswanana aAbbulamu.
11 Now if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people have received the law), what further need was there for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
Lino anoli bululami bwakali konzekene kwindila mubupayizi bwabu Levi (aawo muunsi azezi bantu bakatambula mulawo), ninzi eecho chakali kuyandikana kunembo eecho chinoli chakalelede kubawo kuti kube umbi mupayizi kuti abewo kunembo mubube bwa Melekizedeki, mpawo kitatolegwi kuti ibe kunembo kuliAaloni?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made also in the law.
Mpawo kuti bupayizyo bwasandulwa, mulawo awulawo uyelede kuti wasandulwa.
13 For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has officiated at the altar.
Ooyo umwi wambwa azeezi zintu ngwawumbi musyobo, utakwe umwi wakali wabelekela achipayililo.
14 For it is evident that our Lord has sprung out of Judah, about which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.
Lino zilantanganana kuti eezi zizwa kuli Juda oko Mwami nkwakazyalilwa, musyobo Mozesi ngwakwakatamba atala abupayizi.
15 This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,
Ezyo nzitwamba zimvwikka loko zyakuti anoli umwi mupayizi wabuka muchikozya chaMelekizedeki.
16 who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but after the power of an endless life;
Tewakalanagene loko pe aziyandikana amulawu wanyama kukuba muapayizi, pesi wo wali atala amanguzu abuumi butamani.
17 for it is testified, “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)
Nkambo magwalo ababukamboni anguwe: “Ulimupayizi kwalyoonse kwinda mumabmbe aMelikizedeki.” (aiōn g165)
18 For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness
Tazyambi kuti ayo malayilile achindi akabikwa kumbi kumbali akaambo alikumpeme akubula mulimu.
19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
Nkaambo mulawo takwe nchwakachita chiluleme - pesi alubo bulangizi balimbubo bwakazibisigwa kwinda nituswena kuliLeza.
20 Inasmuch as he was not made priest without the taking of an oath
Chamba kuti tezyakali achikonke pe! Bamwi bakaba bapayizi kabatakwe chikonke pe.
21 (for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him, “The Lord swore and will not change his mind, ‘You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.’” (aiōn g165)
Pesi wakaba mupayizi kwinda muchikonke nchaakatola kulumwi ooyo wakati kulinguwe, “Mwaami wakakonka alubo taakwe nazosanduka pe muzezo wakwe: Ulimupayizi kwalyoonse.” (aiōn g165)
22 By so much, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
Alubo kuli eechiJesu wakapa chisinizyo chachizuminano chilimbubo.
23 Many, indeed, have been made priests, because they are hindered from continuing by death.
Bapayizi bataanzi bakali biingi mumweelwe, mbulu kuti lufu lwakabakachizya kuti bayimkilile nkabali munganda yamulimu.
Pesi akambo kakuti Jesu ulapona kwalyonse, ulabupayizi bwalyoonse. (aiōn g165)
25 Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.
Mpawo ulakonzya lubo kufutula chakumanina basikila Leza kwinda mulinguwe nkaambo choonse chiindi uponena kubakombela.
26 For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
Nkaambo nochoonzyo chaakelela kuti tuube amupayizi mupati, ooyo usalala, utakwe chiibi, uwanzanisigilwe kuzya kuli basizibi akusumpulwa ataala lyamajulu.
27 who doesn’t need, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices daily, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself.
Ooyo utayandi, uatali mbuli bapayizi balaajula, kuti ape zipayizyo zyabuzu abuza, kutaangu chazibi zyakwe, mpawo zyazibi zyabantu. Nakachita eechi lumwi kuli boonse nakalipeda.
28 For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints a Son forever who has been perfected. (aiōn g165)
Nkambo mulawu upa bapayizi kumuntu ulabukompami. Pesi ijwi lyachi chikonke, eelyo lyakaza kunembo amulawu, lyakapa mwana, ooyo wakasalazigwa kwalyoonse. (aiōn g165)
