Ibraniyawa 7
1 Amere Malkisadak une, Ugon Salem, upirist udiya Kutelle unan kitine kani, ulenge na awa zurro nin Ibrahim mme na awa kpillin unuzu nmolusu nagowe, atina ata nghe nmari.
For this man, Melchizedek, King of Salem and priest of the Most High God--he who when Abraham was returning after defeating the kings met him and pronounced a blessing on him--
2 Ibrahim wa nighe likure nanya nimon ilenge na awa bollu, lisame “Malkisadak” nnufi “ugu usheu.
to whom also Abraham presented a tenth part of all--being first, as his name signifies, King of righteousness, and secondly King of Salem, that is, King of peace:
3 A wandi sa ucif, sa unah, na awa dinin nankah ba, na awadi nin nayirin ncizinu ba, sa ayiri nimalin, nin nanere awa lawa upirist sa ligan nafo gono Kutelle.
with no father or mother, and no record of ancestry: having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made a type of the Son of God--this man Melchizedek remains a priest for ever.
4 Nene yenen imusin ngbardang na unit une di, ame kah bite Ibrahim was ni likure nanyan nimon icine na awa yiru kiti likume.
Now think how great this priest-king must have been to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth part of the best of the spoil.
5 Nin kidegenere, likuran Levi wa seru kutyin npirist iwa ni uduke kiti nanit, kiti nadon mine ana Isiraila, nin nani inug wang likura ri unuzun Ibrahim.
And those of the descendants of Levi who receive the priesthood are authorized by the Law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these have sprung from Abraham.
6 Bara Malkisadak, ame na a wandi likura unuzu Levi ba, wa seru uzakka kiti Ibrahim, awa tinghe nmari, ame ulenge na adinin likawale.
But, in this instance, one who does not trace his origin from them takes tithes from Abraham, and pronounces a blessing on him to whom the promises belong.
7 na nari duku ba, nworu unit ubene nase nmari kiti nnit udiya.
And beyond all dispute it is always the inferior who is blessed by the superior.
8 Nanya nanere annit alenge na idin sesu uzukka iba kuzu nlonliri, nanya nkon kusari inug alenge na ina seru uzakka Ibrahim in woro inunghere anan nlai.
Moreover here frail mortal men receive tithes: there one receives them about whom there is evidence that he is alive.
9 nin nanya umon uliru, Levi, ame wa seru uzakka tutung awa biya kiti Ibrahim.
And Levi too--if I may so speak--pays tithes through Abraham:
10 Bara Levi wandi kidowon nkah mere Ibrahim, kubi na Malkisadak wa zurro Ibrahim Ku.
for Levi was yet in the loins of his forefather when Melchizedek met Abraham.
11 Nene andi ndedei nso nani, unuzu likuran Levi upirist (bara kadas nin unit nsere uduka) iyaghari nin du nbun upiziru nmon upirist fita kimal nbellun Malkisadak, a na iba ninghe lissan Haruna ba.
Now if the crowning blessing was attainable by means of the Levitical priesthood--for as resting on this foundation the people received the Law, to which they are still subject-- what further need was there for a Priest of a different kind to be raised up belonging to the order of Melchizedek instead of being said to belong to the order of Aaron?
12 Bara kubi na iba saku upirist, uduke wang ba saku tutun.
For when the priesthood changes, a change of Law also of necessity takes place.
13 Bara ame ulenge na iwa bellin kitene me, ame di nlon lukara ugan, na umon mine na su katuwa nprist ba,
He, however, to whom that prophecy refers is associated with a different tribe, not one member of which has anything to do with the altar.
14 nene ushaidari nworu ciklari bite, na nuzu likuran Yahuda, likura longo na Musa wa bellin imomon kiti mmine nbellen npirist ba.
For it is undeniable that our Lord sprang from Judah, a tribe of which Moses said nothing in connection with priests.
15 Bara ille imon na tibelle idi fong, nene asa umon upirist nfita nanya nkama Malkisadak.
And this is still more abundantly clear when we read that it is as belonging to the order of Melchizedek that a priest of a different kind is to arise,
16 Ame ulenge upirist upese, na amere ulle na abada so upirist nnuzu nduka na udi nniit ba, bara nani unuzu nanya likara nanya nlai unsalin nnanu.
and hold His office not in obedience to any temporary Law, but by virtue of an indestructible Life.
For the words are in evidence, "Thou art a priest for ever, belonging to the order of Melchizedek." (aiōn g165)
18 Bara uduka unkatuwe ina ceo unin kusari, bara usali likara nin diru ampani.
On the one hand we have here the abrogation of an earlier code because it was weak and ineffective--
19 Na uduka nsa uta imon dedei ba, bara nani, tidi nin nciu kibinayi bara ubun, unuzu nle na ti din dasu kupo Kutelle.
for the Law brought no perfect blessing--but on the other hand we have the bringing in of a new and better hope by means of which we draw near to God.
20 Bara na ulenge uti kibinai nse sa usu nisilin ba, na alenge apirist na su isilin ba.
And since it was not without an oath being taken--
21 Ame Kutelle wa su isillin kubi na awa bellin kitene Kristi “cikilari wa sillo na aba saki kibinai me ba, fe upiristari sa ligan.” (aiōn g165)
for these men hold office without any oath having been taken, but He holds it attested by an oath from Him who said to Him, "The Lord has sworn and will not recall His words, Thou art a Priest for ever" -- (aiōn g165)
22 Nind nanere Yisa na da so uyinnu nin likawali acine.
so much the more also is the Covenant of which Jesus has become the guarantor, a better covenant.
23 Vat nani ukul na wanti upirist usu katuwa sa ligan, unere nta tidinin na pirist gbardang, ulle udu nalenge.
And they have been appointed priests many in number, because death prevents their continuance in office:
but He, because He continues for ever, has a priesthood which does not pass to any successor. (aiōn g165)
25 Bara nani awasa amalizina utucu nalenge na ida kupo Kutelle unuzu kitime, bara ame sosin ko kome kubi ana fo acara bara inughe.
Hence too He is able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, seeing that He ever lives to plead for them.
26 Bara imusin nleli upirist idia tidi nin suwe bara arike, na adinin kulapi ba, usali nimon inanzan, ulau ina kosoghe na nan kulapi, amini na da so unan nbun kitene kani.
Moreover we needed just such a High Priest as this--holy, guileless, undefiled, far removed from sinful men and exalted above the heavens;
27 Ame ndira imomon ba, nafo among apirist adidiawe na iba ni ugutunu nmyi ko lome liri, asa atu ana bara kulapi me, anin na bara aalipi nanite, Ame wa su nani urume cas, kubi na awa ni litime.
who, unlike other High Priests, is not under the necessity of offering up sacrifices day after day, first for His own sins, and afterwards for those of the people; for this latter thing He did once for all when He offered up Himself.
28 Bara uduka wa fere annit anan nsali nagang iso apirist, bara ligbulang nisilin, longo na liwa dak kimal nduka, ifere gono, ulenge na awa di dedei sa ligan. (aiōn g165)
For the Law constitutes men High Priests--men with all their infirmity--but the utterance of the oath, which came later than the Law, constitutes High Priest a Son who has been made for ever perfect. (aiōn g165)
