Hebrews 7
1 It was this Melchizedek, king of Salem and priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and gave him his blessing;
Melkkexedeqey, Saaleme Kawoy, Ubbaafe Bolla Xoossaa kahine. He Melkkexedeqey Abrahamey kawota oli xoonidi simmishin iyara gayttidi iya anjjis.
2 and it was to him that Abraham allotted a tithe of all the spoil. The meaning of his name is “king of righteousness,” and besides that, he was also king of Salem, which means “king of peace.”
Abrahamey ba di77idabaa ubbaafe iyaw asraata kessidi immis. Melkkexedeqe sunthay koyro “Xillotethaa kawuwa”, nam77antho, “Saaleme kawo” birshshethaykka “Sarotethaa kawuwa” guussu.
3 There is no record of his father, or mother, or lineage, nor again of any beginning of his days, or end of his life. In this he resembles the Son of God, and stands before us as a priest whose priesthood is continuous.
Melkkexedeqes aaya woykko aawu woykko zare paydoy baawa. Iya yeletethaas doomethi woykko iya de7uwas wurssethi baawa, shin Xoossaa Na7a daanidi merinaw kahine gidis.
4 Consider, then the importance of this Melchizedek, to whom even the patriarch Abraham himself gave a tithe of the choicest spoils.
Melkkexedeqey ay mela giteekko be7ite. Nu aawata mayzay, Abrahamey, ba de7idabaappe iyaw asraata immis.
5 Those descendants of Levi, who are from time to time appointed to the priesthood, are directed to collect tithes from the people in accordance with the Law – that is from their own kindred, although they also are descended from Abraham.
Kahine gidiya Leewe zarey Isra7eele asappe, hessika Abrahaame zerethi gidida bantta ishatappe asraata ekkana mela higgey kiittees.
6 But Melchizedek, although not of this lineage, received tithes from Abraham, and gave his blessing to the man who had God’s promises.
Melkkexedeqey Leewe zare gidonna ixxikokka Abrahameppe asraata ekkis; ufayssa qaali de7iya Abrahaame anjjis.
7 Now no one can dispute that it is the superior who blesses the inferior.
Guuthay gitan anjjetteyssi palanthenna.
8 In the one case the tithes are received by people who are mortal; in the other case by one about whom there is the statement that his life still continues.
Issi baggara, asraata ekkeyssati hayqqiya asata, shin hara baggara asraata ekkeyssi de7on de7ees yaagidi odettidayssa.
9 Moreover, in a sense, even Levi, who is the receiver of the tithes, has, through Abraham, paid tithes;
Hiza, asraata ekkiya Leewey, Abrahaame baggara asraata immis gaanaw dandda7ettees.
10 for Levi was still in the body of his ancestor when Melchizedek met Abraham.
Ays giikko, Melkkexedeqey Abrahamera gayttiya wode Leewey yelettiboonnabaa gidikkoka, ba mayzaa Abrahaame gulbbatan de7ees.
11 If, then, perfection had been attainable through the Levitical priesthood – and it was under this priesthood that the people received the Law – why was it still necessary that a priest of a different order should appear, a priest of the order of Melchizedek and not of the order of Aaron?
Isra7eele asaas higgey Leewe kahinetethaa baggara imettis. Ha Leewe kahinetethay polo gididabaa gidiyakko Aaronayssa mela gidonnashin, Melkkexedeqe mela hara kahine shuumanaw ays koshshidee?
12 With the change of the priesthood a change of the Law became a necessity.
Hiza, kahineti laamettiya wode higgeykka qassi laamettanaw bessees.
13 And he of whom all this is said belonged to quite a different tribe, no member of which has ever served at the altar.
Ha nu iyabaa odiya uray hara zare; iya sheeshaappe oonikka yarshsho bessan kahinetethan oothibeenna.
14 For it is plain that our Lord had sprung from the tribe of Judah, though of that tribe Moses said nothing about their being priests.
Nu Goday Yihuda sheeshaappe yidayssi erettidayssa. Gidoshin, Musey kahintebaa odishe Yihuda zariyaba aybaakka odibeenna.
15 All this becomes even yet plainer when we remember that a new priest has appeared, resembling Melchizedek,
Melkkexedeqe mela hara kahiney yidabaa gidiyakko ha nu odiyabay aadhdhi qonccana.
16 and that he was appointed, not under a Law regulating only earthly matters, but by virtue of a life beyond the reach of death;
I kahine gididay dhayonna de7uwa wolqqaanappe attin iya mayzaa higgeninne wogan gidenna.
17 for that is the meaning of the declaration – “You are for all time a priest of the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)
Geeshsha Maxaafay, “Melkkexedeqe kahinetethaa mela, neeni merinaw kahine” yaagidi markkattees. (aiōn g165)
18 On the one hand, we have the abolition of a previous regulation as being both inefficient and useless
Koyro higgey daaburanchchonne maaddonabaa gidiya gisho shaarettis.
19 (for the Law never brought anything to perfection); and, on the other hand, we have the introduction of a better hope, which enables us to draw near to God.
Muse higgey aybinkka polo oothanaw dandda7ibeenna. Shin nuuni iya baggara Xoossaakko shiiqiya ubbaafe aadhdhiya ufayssa qaalay nuus imettis.
20 Then again, the appointment of this new priest was ratified by an oath, which is not so with the Levitical priests,
Kiristtoosi kahine gidiya wode Xoossay caaqqis, shin harati kahine gidida wode hessa mela caaqoy baawa.
21 but his appointment was ratified by an oath, when God said to him – “The Lord has sworn, and will not change, ‘You are a priest for all time.’” (aiōn g165)
Shin Yesuusi caaqon kahine gidis. Xoossay yaagidi caaqqis; “Goday caaqqis; I ba qofaa laammenna; ‘Neeni merinaa kahine’” yaagis. (aiōn g165)
22 And the oath shows the corresponding superiority of the covenant of which Jesus is appointed the surety.
Ha caaquwa gaason Yesuusi nuus ubbaafe aadhdhiya qaala caaquwas waase gidis.
23 Again, new Levitical priests are continually being appointed, because death prevents their remaining in office;
Kahinetethan oothonna mela hayqoy entta diggida gisho koyro kahineta tayboy daro.
24 but Jesus remains for all time, and therefore the priesthood that he holds will never pass to another. (aiōn g165)
Shin Yesuusi merinaw de7iya gisho iya kahinetethaa hari laattenna. (aiōn g165)
25 And that is why he is able to save perfectly those who come to God through him, living for ever, as he does, to intercede of their behalf.
Hessa gisho, I ubba wode entta gisho gaannatanaw merinaw de7iya gisho Xoossaakko iya baggara yeyssata polo ashshanaw dandda7ees.
26 This was the high priest that we needed – holy, innocent, spotless, withdrawn from sinners, exalted above the highest heaven,
Hiza, nuus koshshiyabaa immiya, geeshshay, boreynne tuni baynnayssi, nagaranchchotappe shaakettidaysinne saluwappe aadhdhidi dhoqqida kahine halaqay nuus koshshees.
27 one who has no need to offer sacrifices daily as those high priests have, first for their own sins, and then for those of the people. For this he did once and for all, when he offered himself as the sacrifice.
I hankko kahine halaqata mela koyro ba nagara gisho, kaallidi asaa nagaraa gisho gallas gallas yarshsho yarshshanaw koshshenna. I bana yarshshida wode zaarethonna ogen issi toho bana yarshshis.
28 The Law appoints as high priests men who are weak, but the words of God’s oath, which was later than the Law, name the Son as, for all time, the perfect priest. (aiōn g165)
Muse higgey daaburanchcho asaa kahine halaqa oothidi shuumees. Shin higgiyafe guye yida caaqo qaalay merinaw polo gidida Xoossaa Na7aa shuumis. (aiōn g165)
