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 the things we are saying is this: We do have such a High Priest, who sat down at the right of the Majesty's throne in the heavens,
2 Ame kuci nari nanya kutyi kulau, kutyii nliran kidegen na cikilari wa tuno, na unit usurneri ba.
Minister of the Holy Places, that is, of the true Tabernacle which the Lord set up, not 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.
Every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices (it follows that it is necessary for this One also to have something He might 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.
—if He were on earth He would not be a priest, there already being priests who offer the 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,”
who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things (that is why Moses was warned by God when he was ready to assemble the Tabernacle: “See to it,” He says, “that you make everything according to the pattern shown to you 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 now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, just as He is Mediator of a better covenant, which was enacted as law on the basis of better promises.
7 Andi aleli alikawali nburne na nnana ba na ubellen npiziru nalikawali an ba ba yitu ku ba.
Now if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought 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 them He says: “Listen! 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 according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they did not abide by my covenant and so I disregarded 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.
“Now this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says the Lord, “I will put my laws into their mind and write them on their hearts; and 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.
Further, not one of them will teach his neighbor and not one his brother saying, ‘Get to know the Lord!’ because they all will know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.
12 Bara meng ba dursu nkunekune kitene naddu ananzan mine, na meng ba kuru nlizin nin nalapi mine ba.
For I will be merciful to their wrongdoings; I will not at all remember their sins and their lawless deeds.”
13 Nanya nbelle “ipese” anati alikawali nburne akuse inin ulenge na ana bellin iso ikuse ina mali uwulu.
By saying ‘new’ He has made the first one ‘old’; and what is obsolete and aging is near the end.
